Ios 7 4s sound issues no sound via music player

Same problem here... 😟 it works for a fraction of minitues and then it stops working.

Any solution will be appritiated. This is causing major problems.

Same problem with sound here. I reported the problem at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

OK, I am speechless now. Spend a whole day. Different methods to reinstall the OS, same problem.(even without restored setting and data/apps).

I have 2 iphone 4s, one HK version works fine. the other is UK version has this problem.

It might be a bug of OS or hardware firmware issue. Need 7.1 please

If I had hair I'd be tearing it out. This is happening to me and I have tried everything suggested. Reset, Restore, DFU everything

Nothing works.

The sound comes back and works for minutes then boom gone again.

I hope this is sorted quickly!

I had the same problem. I have been using a "non-apple" usb charger. I just went out to my car, plugged my iphone 4S into my Apple USB cable and that fixed the problem. I now have all of my sounds back. Could it be an engineered bug to sell more USB cables? 😉

Well, I spoke too soon. The fix I mentioned worked for a few minutes. However, after locking the iphone and then unlocking it, the sound problem came back. So, I'm still looking for a permanent fix.

Once I upgraded to 7.0, The same thing happened to me. The sound would go out, sometimes come back, and then go out again.

So, I have had issues like this in the past.

I can reproduce this quite reliably by playing music, then opening the camera app to take a video (perhaps a photo will do it)

It could be something caused by applications contending to play sound, but I believe it is a matter of power -- either battery, or CPU. I let my phone charge up all night which did not resolve the issue (as it often does). I then disabled a couple things: vibration on ring /email, and I think it was last night when I disabled background updates for apps. I'm fairly certain that, however, is the key -- turning off background app updates.

How can we report our issue to apple? We really need a solution soon.

I have a 4s and the same thing happens to me. To my surprise, when I was in the middle of a call the music started playing! What a shock!

Now when I want to listen to music I have to make a connection and to play for the link ... that nasty!

Sometimes he keeps playing indefinitely, until i touch pause, sometimes not!

Does Apple is giving life to the iphone itself??? I hope apple fix this quickly!!

If you can succeed in getting their attention you'll be everybody's hero.

The same issue has been there since ios 6. I upgraded my ipad to ios 6 and I lost sound completely.

Note: if you test the notifications sounds from the settings you can hear them (so it's not a hardware issue)

It's just that music, videos, YouTube and all other sounds don't work.

Here's a whole discussion about the issue in ios6 if anybody is interested:

It is simple as 1-2-3. Just squeze around speakers - left/right from the dock connector. And sound is back ... NICE! and that after 4 hours browsing the Internet reading no solution. Call BizClass Travel if you need discounted air tickets, cruises, all-inclusive vacations!

Same prob here...how'd Apple let this get thru, because it's not an isolated problem.

I have no idea how I solved the problem, or whether the sound is still on or not. I do know it came back following a restart. iTunes radio sounded worse than a '60's transistor radio, at first, too

I found once I plugged my phone into my car, I got audio.

I have the same problem. Everything works fine with headphones on. Headphones off, the only sound I get is from Facetime and the ringer. Basically none of my alerts work, music, videos and youtube. Tried all of the suggestions besides removing apps....frustrating.

Had same problem on iPad mini, after installing ios7. Rebooted and sound returned.
