People can't hear me when talking on the phone of my iPhone 7

Same bullsh** is happening to me as I too am on my second new iPhone 7 with AT&T and it most likely is due to Apple foolishly deciding to farm out there iPhone 7 chipset/modem contract to not only Qualcomm this year but Intel and it is the Intel based iPhone 7's (AT&T and T-Mobile only sell the Intel version) that are having this issue. You can verify this by checking the model number under Settings > General > Regulatory. If you have model A1778 or A1784 then you have an Intel iPhone 7. If you have A1660 or A1661 then you have the Qualcomm iPhone 7 which is hands down the better phone and the test by independent 3rd parties prove it. This is pathetic! Apple needs to get it together quick or they'll lose even more customers than they already have!

Hmmm. Not sure how a SIMM would make a difference as all that does is tie you to the AT&T network but hey if it did the trick then great. I'm more skeptical though as my second iPhone 7 was brand new out of the box using the brand new SIMM and I'm still having the issue.

I had this issue while using my phone at home as well with a week old iphone 7 plus purchased from the apple store. it was working fine until last night when i could receive and make phone calls but the person on the other end could only hear 'noise' but i could hear them talking fine. the problem persists today.

I contacted apple support and got a person via CHAT (since i could not make a phone call!!) and we did the following,

1. check to make sound works on your phone,

a. using voice memo, record and play back sound

b. ask siri a question, i.e. find 'joe brown' (someone who is in your contact list)

c. record a video, with the front and back lense (i.e reversed and without it reversed)

2. check you connection to your cellular provider

1. turn off your phone, wait 2 mintes turn it back on

2. turn on airplane mode, wait, then turn it back on,

3. enable wifi calling SETTINGS>PHONE (this test did not work for me because I was still connecting to AT & T)

My husband who has a droid could make and receive phone calls fine,

I have lived at my home for 8 years on had an iphone 4 & 5 with the same carrier, AT & T, and never had this type of issue but you'll find apple support wants to say it's a carrier issue.

if you go online you'll find other people have had this issue but you shouldn't have to turn off features, reset your phone or muck with the exterior to get it working, it's not a cheap phone, i would return it

good luck

I have the same problem and have done the following without success:

1. Wipe phone and restore from iTunes

2. Replaced phone from apple and restored from iTunes

3. Wiped phone and restored as new

None have helped.

Help!

I would suggest to call your network provider. Today all day there was issue going on with Three and EE network. It happened to me before when talking to some suddenly they stopped listening to my voice, then I found out from EE that they have problem going on. After a day the issue was fixed and my phone was working normal again.

I am with EE it happened today and yesterday but even hanging up and calling again didnt fix the issue . I have reset my network settings but will give them a call in the morning anyway and find out as reading through the article it seems certain model numbers of the iphone 7 have had the same issue and guess what I have that model ....... great lol .

I have the same problem, ip7 keeps dropping calls, people sound like rebots when they call me. the calls breakup so badly. people can't hear me. the reception is terrible. textes don't go through. so sick of this phone. can I get 6plus s. need help apple is losing my trust

My wife’s iPhone 7 Plus has had continuous sound issues from day 1 - she has sent it in repeatedly to her service provider but they always come back with same answer - no problem detected. The problem is that it is intermittent- sometimes people can hear her well other times the only way people can hear her is if she puts the phone on hands free - then people hear her perfectly!! I have a iPhone 6 Plus and she often uses it without any issue...any sugges

You might start with the troubleshooting steps in this article:

Get help with the microphones on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

Then, if that doesn't help, the general advice in these situations is the usual - restart and/or forced restart, restore from backup, and lastly, restore as new:

Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support

How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support

I have this exact issue as well with my iPhone 7. However, I did not notice this problem until the latest 10.0.3 update.

I have this problem too. At first I thought it was just my Bose noise-cancelling headphones were somehow "incompatible" with the lightning adapter, but i was just using Apple-supplied earpods and i just had the same thing happen. I am on a call for a few minutes, then suddenly the other party can't hear me.

I have this issue as well. I have AT&T.

Here's what I've done:

1. Tested that this happens with and without noise cancelling enabled. With and without Wi-Fi. With and without a case on. With and without speakerphone. With and without headphones. Multiple geographic locations. Multiple callers. Toggling speakerphone doesn't fix the issue when it's happening. Removing headphones doesn't fix the issue when it's happening. Moving the phone around (to get better signal) maybe help, but I don't have enough data to prove this isn't coincidental. This issue started for me before the 10.0.3 release, basically within a week of purchasing the phone.
2. Apple store reset my network settings and gave me a new SIM card, which I then went to AT&T to activate. Issue continued.
3. Apple store gave me a new phone. Issue continued.
4. Apple store told me not to backup from iCloud, so I reset my phone and set it up as a new phone (not using iTunes). Issue continued.
5. Apple store told me to reset phone using iTunes and set up as new phone. Issue continued.
6. Apple store told me to try disabling LTE voice (forces 4G voice). They suspect that my reception was poor (I rarely ever get more than 2 of 5 bars in general) and that the LTE signal was dropping mid-call. Call quality was poor when I swapped to 4G, so this is not a viable solution for me. I re-enabled LTE voice before I could do extensive testing. Issue continued.
7. I enabled Wi-Fi calling to try something else, but it never actually enabled (I never saw the AT&T Wi-Fi on the top of my phone).
8. I called Apple support and they think it's a problem with "AT&T provisioning", but had me generate logs for them to analyze. They also suggested Wi-Fi calling, but I told them it wasn't working. While on the phone with them, the issue happened, they couldn't hear me and I could hear them.
9. AT&T Wi-Fi finally showed up while I was on Wi-Fi, days after enabling it. However, this functionality is intermittent and doesn't always enable when I'm on Wi-Fi.
10. Followup call with Apple support, they downloaded my logs and are analyzing.
11. I called back a week or so later, left a message, no response in 4 days. Will try again.

Thank you for being so thorough. I hope it can be figured out.

Thank you for all of the details. I'm having this same problem too. What a huge pain in the ***. Apple needs to find a fix for us ASAP. We have phones that don't work. That's not right.
