Some preliminary items.


I assume you adjusted the volume rockers to loud.


How about the silence switch on the left side. Is it set to silence (red line showing)?


Lastly, Settings > Sounds >Ringer and alerts change with buttons set to "ON" and ringtone is not set to none?

My iphone5c loudspeaker or external speaker is not working. The phone does not ring nor does any sound come out of it. I have done all of the stuff that was recommended in this post and other posts. If I pushed on the screen lower right, it would work for awhile and then not work. I brought it to the apple store and wouldn't you know it worked right before I walked in and then stopped the next day. While in the store the tech said they can replace a part inside(he also said this is an ongoing issue with these phones). I made another appointment for the end of this week. It's a $60 cost to try and fix it but they aren't guaranteeing it will fix the phone. I don't want to spend another $800 to purchase a new phone. I'm beginning to think apple is making junk.
