IPhone :: Sound Quality Suddenly Dropped On 4s?
Jun 4, 2012
i've had my iphone 4s for about half a year now and the sound coming out of the built-in speaker has been working fine until today. i didn't do anything out of the ordinary. i just opened up a video from Internet and noticed the sound was considerably less clear than usual. when i use earphones, the sound is crystal clear but when it comes out of the speaker, it's very scratchy and fuzzy. earlier today it was working fine. rebooting my iphone didn't help. i don't know if it's a firmware problem as i updated to 5.1.1 as soon as it was availible.
info:
iphone 4s, ios 5.1.1

Right now my iPhone 4s suddenly dropped the WiFi signal to my home network and is now unable to connect to the network.
Things I have tried:Turning phone on/off, this worked for about 10 minutes then it happened again.Restarting my router, did not work.Restoring router to factory default, did not work.Forgetting network, did not work.
I made sure my mac address is not being blocked.
I have been blocking a couple of mac addresses that have the host name "unknown" and IP "unknown" on my router, however this should not be affecting it since my phone shows up as "iPhone" on the device list. No other device is connected to my WiFi.
I have a Motorola SURFboard SBG6580 Docis 3.0 modem w/ built in wifi if it helps.
Info:
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1, Just synced to iTunes yesterday.

I played around with the HDMI output, after installing the new version of Nokia Big Screen. The video quality was miserable (I have a 720p demo video from Philips for testing purpose). I thought it was from Big Screen application, so I uninstalled it, but there was no change.
In short the screen is way too overscan (part of menu goes out of screen), the TV output format switch in Accessories has no effect (was this active only for analog output ? can't remember and I don't have an analog cable at hand to check), but the worst thing is the video quality is horrible for a HD image, resolution seems to be low, outlines are exaggerated and the contrast is too high, like the tonal range is missing.
I tried on two different brands LCD TV displays and on one of them on both native HDMI and DVI-compatible input HDMI. At the same time connecting my PC to the DVI-compatible input and playing the same video shows a perfect image.
I barely recall that the image was very good before, but I have my N8 only ~1,5 months old so perhaps I have not accumulated much experience on this. Still, even without background, I qualify the actual image quality as "miserable". What HD? Looks worse than SD.

The image quality has dropped significantly on my n8 after the belle update. The auto focus is not as precise as it was with anna. I am surprised no one has reported this matter. On a discussion on beta labs D.Dinning said that there's no need to install the previously released camera update for n8 after updating to belle.

I have bought a new iPhone 3GS.. but I got very very disappointed with the sound quality of headphones. I already have an iPod shuffle 1GB, and it sounds like awesome... In the comparison of my iPod, the iPhone sounds only abt 30-35%... Can anybody tell me the solution of this problem or I have to sacrifise..?Help me guys please bcz I believed that apple products like iPods (all models) and iPhones (all models) have the equal sound quality... I collected the money for iPhone for more than two years and music is my passion...

I'm using C7-00, after upgrading to Belle the disk space was 329MB. When I opened the device manager to check the name of the OS the disk space suddenly dropped to 280MB. I checked all the folders but there was nothing wrong.

I dropped my Iphone in the sink for about 2 seconds, then took it out and dried it off. It all worked fine but a few minutes later the screen went black. I put it in rice for about 2 and a half days, and the sound and touch works (I can even unlock it and answer the phone), but I see not a thing on the screen. It's plain black. I still have it in the rice, but is there anything i can do to save it?

My xperia ray has good sound quality on the external speaker regarding hights. Female voices for example sound fine. But on a good headphone (i use the beyerdynamic DTX 101 IE and tried others) heights quality is sub-par. Now i am wondering, did Sony use bad hardware here or bad software? Is there any chance this can be fixed with an update?I really like the phone but this bothers me a bit especially as the phone plainly has the technology to recreate the sound adequately (the speaker works fine).

I did SSH my iphone using DISKAID, and in DISKAID there's this random glitch where sometimes when you're renaming a file it will name the whole folder the new name, and it happened to me with the MobileSMS.app folder, but i changed it back and didn't notice any problem. about an hour later i get a text (sound works), and while typing my reply the SMS app froze (if it's any clue it was during the magnifying glass thingy was on). I went in and out of the app using home button (multitasking enabled) but it wouldn't unfreeze so i rebooted the phone and it came back normal. but since then- no incoming SMS sound!
What's even weirder than that is the fact that even if i'm going to SETTINGS SOUNDSNEW TEXT MESSAGE and tap the different ringtones I don't get any sound!
Oh - another clue:
During my browsing through the phone's file system I did find another "ringtones" folder somewhere and deleted them all except for two - but as far as I know the call ringtones and the SMS ringtones are never in the same folder.. still, could I have deleted the SMS ringtone files? that would make pefect sense but.. is it even possible? or could it be something I accidently changed in the MobileSMS.app folder?

My iPhone 4s suddenly stopped producing sounds, including ring tone, alerts, messages, alarms, key board noises and lock noises. Has anyone else experienced this? I have completed software updates, rebooted and checked all settings with no luck

I have an N79 handset and I'm thinking of upgrading it to N86.The problem is that some people say that the nokia n86 sound is way low (I'm not sure about that) but I didn't reach a comparison between the N79 sound loudness and the N86 sound loudness.Can someone tell me which handset has a better sound quality and loudness?
I need a really quick reply.

I've had my Blackberry for over six months, but I've always had a problem with the quality/clarity of the audio in incoming phone calls. It's very difficult to understand the person on the other end -- particularly, but not only, if the person has an accent of any sort. I want to use the Blackberry as my primary phone, but I can't "get" half of what my callers are saying to me.

I have noticed that my ringtones and alarms play at a lower quality than they did before.My first thought was that my speakers were damaged and affecting the sound quality, but when I play music and even my ringtones in the media player the quality is as fine as ever. However the same ringtones, when played automatically either as an alarm or ringtone have a noticeably lower quality

As a happy N95 8GB (heavy) user I had high hopes for my N86 upgrade (after extensive research and satisfied it would fulfill my all-one-needs, I was rubbing my hands in gleefull expectation). Save for the numerous allusions to poor sound quality, I had high hopes.
Sadly, how wrong I could be.O2 delivered my N86 last week, and I was instantly disappointed - in fact, quite taken aback - by the genuinely AWFUL, tinny, quality of the calls and even worse, the loudspeakers (plus the underpowered processor). I promptly sent the phone back, assuming I'd been sent of a 'dodgy' handset, and today, took delivery of a brand new handset: to my surprise, it has exactly the same problem.
I've only ever used Nokia phones, I very rarely post to forums, but feel compelled to do so as I find it surprising that, with such great technology to hand, Nokia could release a handset with speakers and a sound chip of such poor, tinny, quality. Clearly pocketability and reducing the phone's size-profile has been prioritised over speaker size and overall sound quality.
A further scour around these discussion groups and forums elsewhere confirms I'm not alone: other n86 users are becoming progressively clued up to the fact that whilst it's a good, if not spectacular, phone - pleasing wide-angle camera, feels good in the hand (if a little top heavy, and not as easy to text as the N95), robust, generally quite satisfactory - and, of course, for those few of us left that like traditional buttons - it generally ticks all the boxes.
But I couldn't bear to use this phone day in, day out, which such risible sound quality.Surely such issues would be addressed in iminent firmware upgrades? Speaking to someone who works at Nokia directly, and looking at the bugs the latest firmware DOES fix, it doesn't appear sound is on the menu (although I could be wrong). Of course, I'm sure will be addressed in time - Nokia must be aware of the general feedback related to the sound issue (!?) - but I would rather not wait.
Additionally, the phone is underpowered. I could probably live with a little slugishness, as I expect that will definately be fixed in time. But I can't live with talking to someone like they're under a duvet (admittedly, not that I have much experience of talking to someone under a duvet) or straining to hear a word said when I'm using the phone outside, with the loudspeaker is turned up to max.
Maybe I've been spoilt with great quality sound on the N95 (which fits into my pocket just perfectly, Nokia!), but I would - personally, in my view, in my humble opinion and all that - struggle to believe the N86 was thoroughly roadtested with call quality as a priority?Maybe other's will disagree - the above is just my experience. Back to my N95.

I have C3-00 with firmware v8.71. I noticed that when making or receiving a call, even with the volume set to 10 bars, when someone is standing next to me, he cannot hear the voice of the one am talking to. My friend has C3-00 with firmware V8-63, when he receives or makes a call, when you are standing next to him, you can hear the voice of the person he is talking to and you can reduce the volume in order for somone next to you not to ehar what you are discussion. Is it about the firmware or is it just my phone?I want to know so if I have to reverse back to V8.63 by flashing the phone or maintaining V8.71.

When I bought my E63 I noticed that while on my previous phone the sound got all distorted when I tried to record a loud live performance, it sounded pretty good on the E63, even if the concert got loud. Since that discovery I usually record one of two songs of a show I visit as a souvenir. It's become quite a big thing for me.Now the E63 has a pretty mediocre camera, so I'm thinking about upgrading to a model with a better one. Of course it is essential that this new phone can record loud sound (110 dB and over) as good or even better than my current E63. I know that this is not a given from people with iPhones or phones from HTC: all they get is when they try to record loud sound is distortion.are newer Nokia models still as good at recording loud (rock and metal show) sound and is there some technical spec that I can check to make sure this is the case?

Any problems with it like the Storm1? I never had a lot of problems with the Storm1 but I had a few people tell me the sound on their end wasn't the best.

Yesterday I bought Spiro and I encountered some issues:
1. No flashlight as stated in the specification on SE site!
2. If you choose some of the standart equalizers different from normal everything is ok but when you stop the player and then resume it - it returns to normal equalizer
3. You cannot create custom equalizer settings in walkman player
4. Overall the sound quality is awful - even my old 5 years old k750i (which is not walkman) plays music better.

Distinguished SE, after the purchase of Your flagship phone I'm completely disappointed in a speechsystem quality of the device: very quiet conversational speaker, very low sensitivity of the microphone + poor quality of the signal filtering. Updated on a German version R2BA020, noticed some improvement in the acoustic part of the phone, but they are far from the quality of your mid-range phones like w760, w585. It is hoped that these comments will be incorporated into the next version of FW. The potential of X10 is enormous, your task is to reveal it as soon as possible.

I know the IPhone 4 gives the best sound quality when it comes to music. But I like to know which non touch screen SE phone gives the best sound quality? Do all SE walkman phones give the same sound quality output? What about other manufacturers such as Nokia and Samsung. Do their music phones offer better sound quality than SE ones?
