IOS 11 Sound Problem

I fixed this problem by doing the following...

Settings -> General -> Accessibility ->Hearing Aid Compatibility "Toggled On".

Try this & good luck!

For me, this worked: Remove the phone from case. Turn off ANC in settings (Phone noise cancellation in Accessibility settings).

Now the other side says that they can’t hear me properly and I should buy a decent phone, but they do hear me.

I have had this problem with my iPhone SE. Plus apps crashing and pretty much the phone just freezing up all the time. Causing me to have to do a hard reset. Which fixed the problem momentarily, then it started messing up again.

However it seemed stopped for about a month. Started all this again 2 days ago. I think I have it traced to a clash with the Tinder App (Feel freed to judge on that ha).

But after I deleted it off my phone, that's when all the issues stopped. Downloaded it again Monday (Still ok to judge ha) and it's been acting weird ever since.

Woke up right before my alarm this morning and noticed that the sound didn't play with the alarm. It just vibrated. Deleted the Tinder app, and the next alarm played like normal.

Will continue to see how it acts today.

So I'd say a possible solution would be to check any apps that might be clashing with the update.

Same problem, took 2 iPhone 6plus one with iOS 10.3.3, the other iOS 11.1.2

Comparing both with voice, music, speaker mode, VoLTE, 1X calls, WFC, 3rd party VoIP, noise cancellation - the mic is consistently not transmitting or picking up audible noise.

If you put your voice over the mic of the mobile originating device and hum~~~ it will start to break up on the receiving end of the device.

Apple has messed up the voice encoding somehow.

UPDATE: i tried the beta and still nothing worked so far...i found that bottom microphone was the problemi send the phone in T-mobile(where i bought the phone)..i wait my phone now, hopefully they will fix asap..

So after yesterday’s carrier update and iOS 11.1.2 my phone now plays sounds normally. So much for a hardware issue. It’s has yet to revert back so it seems fine... for now.

Hi,

I have the same problem with my iPhone 7 since upgrading to iOS 11. I upgraded to iOS 11.0.1 yesterday, it didn't fix the issue. It might be related to bluetooth. The first time it happened was after I disconnected my bluetooth headset (Beoplay H9). I and the counterpart made several phone calls. All were completely quiet. No dial tone, I heard nothing and the counterpart heard nothing.

The second time bluetooth was on but I was not connected to a bluetooth source.

This has to be fixed ASAP!

Same problem here, with my iPhone 6s, and only after updating to iOS 11. I also tried a clean install, but nothing changed.

I also noticed that this problem seems to be related not only with the phone itself, because if I plug headphone, or bluetooth headphone, I'm still not able to hear or to be heard.

Guys,

This is critical issue. On IOS 11.0.2 (iPhone 6s) Resetting network setting solved the problem. While on IOS 11.0.3 it got worser and I need to perform restart every single day.

Users really need to be able to perform phone calls on their phones instead of having new version of poop icon.

When this will be addressed properly?

Hello,

I did a clean install on my Iphone 8 and had the problem with low level of speech is being clipped so the other person is asking to speak louder. If you speak loud it is OK, as soon if you dim your voice the other does not hear you any more.

On speaker mode all is OK. The problem is with low level audio input in bottom microphone. On speaker there are more microphones active. Went to shop and changed my Iphone 8 for a new one, clean install again switched SIM card and same problem again.

Easy to test, start speaking at low volume and have another phone on your ear with microphone off, start switching between normal and speaker mode.

Hope Apple will fix this quick.!

gr.,

Has anyone had their malfunctioning repaired previously at a 3rd party non-Apple authorized shop like Ubreakifix? I've been reading about how 3rd party parts are problematic on iOS 11. Just wondering because my iPhone 6 was repaired at Ubreakifix and it was fine in iOS 10 but immediately broke upon upgrading to iOS 11.

Can anyone use the Voice Memo app and record their voice???

After upgrading to IOS 11, i started to have this exact problem with my iphone 6s in the first minute after upgrade, it only gets normal after restart but after a while it starts to not work again. Sound not going, not coming all calls are completely silent. İ never had this problem until upgrading to IOS 11.

And seing this is also happening to others, its probably a IOS11 6s issue.

Same here, after updating to iOS 11, and I have done a bit of troubleshooting myself, usually it is just random, when it happens -_-

• I have tried placing a call using the speakers and no luck, dead silence, the call however does go thru.

• I have tried placing a call with my bluetooth off, no luck

• I have tried placing a call using headphones, no luck with sound

• I have tried placing a call with my airpods, no luck

Have also tried restarting all my settings, and no luck, fixed other issues I have had with iOS 11, but this one just annoys me.

I have the same issue with my iPhone 7plus. It’s all fine until update. Tried all the recommendations that apple support suggested, restore, hard reset. The issue is with the volume button stop working, therefore making the volume stay at the lowest. Workaround is to restart the phone, but this happens to me 2-3 times a day. Which is extremely frustrating. I notice my music apps stops working too.

I actually received a new phone while I was in an apple store last week. But the problem exist even after this brand new install on new phone from apple .

The support insist that its a hardware issue and tell me to bring back to the store.
