SOURCE: incoming call problems

Could be that it's just a software hickup: press menu and on/off button togetherfor 5 sec. If it's the same after the restart you need a new earspeaker. You can also use a headset, if it works with the headset, you definitely need a new earspeaker.There is a step by step guide too that explains a little bit at eachsteps what you have to do : iPhone speaker repair. You can buy the touch screens online too. There are also iphone repair companies that do it for you.

SOURCE: I can't hear peoples voices when they call. The volume only works for the ringer

If you want to change volume of the caller's voice, then try adjusting the volume control WHILE you are actually talking on the phone during a call.

If you try to adjust the volume when there is no call in progress, then the volume controls will only change the ringer volume.

If you provide the exact model number of your particular device, then we may also be able to provide you with the User's Manual for your phone.

I hope that was helpful Loli.

Good luck and take care.

Joe.

Alcatel TCL A3y. Can barely hear incoming calls despite volume set at highest level. Anything I can do?

It seems a known issue. You could use the speaker or use a Bluetooth earpiece.

Did you increase the Volume whilst ON a call? Otherwise you are just turning up the ringer volume.

Adjusting the Ringer Volume

You can choose from four ringer volume settings (off, low, medium, and high)

separately on each handset or the base.

With the phone in standby, press or on the handset or VOLUME or

VOLUME on the base. The handset or base sounds the ringer at that level.

Use on the handset or VOLUME on the base to make the ringer volume

louder. Use on the handset or VOLUME on the base to make it softer or

turn it completely off.

When you hear the ringer volume level you want to use, stop pressing keys.

The handset or base will use the new ringer volume starting with the next incoming call.

Note: If you set the ringer volume to Off, the handset or base won't ring. Other handsets or base will ring according
to their individual settings.

The volume on one of my Gigaset 8825 mobile handsets is very low. I have adjusted the handset volume to the max setting but still can barely hear the ringer. Is there another way to adjust the handset...

Hi, you can try to change the profile settings of the phone, because sometimes even if the volume is full but if the profile settings is on low, the sound will still be low.
Thank you for using Fixya.

Ringer is set at max but is hard to hear

If the ringout volume is very low, then try not to select a soft, silent or low ringing tone. Try to choose a ringing tone that is loud so that you can hear your phone ringout.
Hope that was helpful?

My problem is ringer volume i cant when someone is calling

Hi, when a phone has a ringer volume problem, is either the ringer of the phone is weak and you can't hear when someone calls you or the volume of the ringer is yet at a very low level in sound.

You will need to check the volume settings of the phone if the volume is low so you can increase it to a high level.

If the setting of the volume is high, that means the ringer that a makes you hear when people call is weak and will need to be replaced.

Any further question or comment, you can pass it on as comment.

Take care.
