The volume on my iphone is at max but is still so low that unless I am in an absolutely silent place I cannot hear the voices of callers. How can I fix this?

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?
To enable/disable the silent feature on an iPhone, simply look to the left-side of the phone. There will be 2 buttons there:
1. A small, switch that goes left/right.
2. A longer longer that can be pressed up/down.
Button #1 is the silent toggle switch. Moving it to the left enables silent-mode; to the right disables silent-mode.
Button #2 is the volume adjustment button which will raise the volume if pressed up and decrease the volume if pressed down.
Note: If you press the volume bottom down all the way, the handset will mute itself. When using the volume button, a volume indicator will appear on-screen to indicate how loud/quiet the phone is. If there are no white bars present on the indicator scale, then the iPhone is muted. Press up on the volume button a few times to increase the volume and disable mute.
Hello,
If the receiver is that low (and the volume level is at max) there may be a hardware issue related to the internal receiver. The piece is replaceable, but must be serviced by Apple or have your iPhone replaced by AT&T (if under warranty).
In some models of iPhones, this was a known issue that would occur through normal wear & tear. An easy way to tell if it is a hardware issue is to pair your iPhone with a bluetooth headset. While keeping the volume level at max, is it louder or the same as the iPhone's built-in receiver?
If it is louder, than chances are pretty good that the internet receiver needs replacing. If not, then you may have a software issue affecting the sound levels. Try rebooting your iPhone as this tends to "fix" a great many issues affecting iPhones. If that doesn't solve it, perform a sync to backup data, next update or restore your iPhone and then perform the test again.
On the left hand side of the Iphone you will be having a slider kind of a thing which can be used to toggle from silent to ringing mode. Check if that set to silent mode.
for the low volume, the fault is from the earpiece. Trust me, I faced this same problem and when I changed the ear piece, I began to hear calls clearly.
You could also get a earphone and use it to receive and make call pending the time you get the earpiece fixed. Earphone will even be much louder.
Concerning the flash, do some adjustment settings as you rightly suggested.
Check if your iPhone is not in silent mode. Push the Ring/Silent switch upwards to turn off silent mode. You'll know that the silent mode is not on when you don't see the small red dot at the Ring/Silent switch which is located just above the volume buttons.
This is a Normal problem, remeber the echo is for the mircrophone is in the same place like the speakers, & dont have a noice cancelation system, I recomended to use a bluetooth earphone
you can actually move the button , on the top left hand side of your iphone, over the ringer volume, you will see a red or orange dot, this means the switch has you iphone in silent mode, I was stuck on this, until I found it is a actual switch, look at it closely, you can move it. So where you see the red dot, put your finger on it and move it the opposite way, and I do not mean press the button, I mean, flip the switch on it, then your phone will not be in silent mode anymore,,, this was very annoying, I hope it helps anyone that has the same problem.
cheers!
