The volume bar has disappeared. There's no sound in apps.

Hi,

When I press the + and - buttons, the volume icon appears, but the slider is empty. When I receive a call, I hear it ring, and I can hear the ringtones in the sound menu. However, the message/mail notifications don't make any noise, and I can't hear the sound menu.

I changed my LCD screen and upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 the same day. Now, I have a strange problem, and I don't know if the cause is an iOS 5 bug or a physical problem.

I restored the device many times on iOS 5, but it doesn't fix the problem. Here are some other symptoms:

  • During a phone call, if I put the conversation on speakers, it works and the volume bar reappears. I can control the volume with the + and - buttons. But when the conversation is over, the bar disappears again.
  • With the headphones, everything is ok!
  • I also noticed (only a few times) that when I do a repring (with changing the language of the phone), the volume slider reappears and works correctly for 2 or 3 seconds, before disappearing again.

My guess is that this is an iOS 5 problem, since the speakers work.

Can you please help me?

Thanks from Paris.

Hi,

My phone seems to be fixed now. :-)

It seems that cleaning the headphone jack is the best place to start. Use isopropyl alcohol and a Q-tip.

I'm not sure exactly how I fixed it, but this is what happened:

  • I cleaned the headphone jack with alcohol and a Q-tip.
  • I cleaned the charging socket with alcohol.
  • It still didn't work after the cleaning operation.
  • I reset the phone, but it still wasn't working.
  • I got depressed :-) and gave the phone back to my wife.
  • 2 days later, the phone was working again. :-D

I think the cleaning operation fixed the problem, but I'm not sure.

The only changes that my wife made to the phone were setting the alarm clock and changing the ring tones.

I hope that helps.

I had the same issue with my brand new iPhone 4s just recently. I read this thread and just blew into the headphone jack and dock connector and now it works. I guess some dust particles were fooling the device into thinking it was docked to speakers.

von

I just tried cleaning the headphone jack and dock connecter with a bit of rubbing alcohol on a stripped Q-tip and used a camera lens blower to blow out any fine particles... and everything is working again!

== Update ==

As an update, this solution was only a quick/temporary fix. The volume bar since has been flashing in and out, and disappearing. Think it's time for a call to apple.

von

Yes cleaning it did help, I actually spilled a water bottle on my phone >.>, I left it in a rice bag for a day and all of the condensation was cleared. I just sprayed that out with some canned air, It did do that "I'm going to work, haha, not really" but a few seconds later it was fine. I suggest a can of compressed air and spraying the crap out of it.

von

No luck with the toothbrush yet. Pretty much did everything I could find on the internet, except alcohol. Strange thing for me: When my iPhone is not used for a few minutes and I unlock it, volume bars are working for 2-3 seconds. Then they disappear... :(

If your speakers are working, and the only problem you have is that the volume bar is gone, you might just need to clean your dock connector. Turn off the device and then gently brush the dock connector using an old toothbrush. You can't imagine how much dust you can find down there. Sometimes this can cause the iPhone to act as if it is docked to an external speaker, canceling the volume controls on the device. Good luck!

I accidentally spilled coffee in my iPhone 4 this morning:/ After I dried it off I had the exact same problem. I restored the phone but the problem was still there.

Then I read this post and used a toothbrush in the dock connector, and voila! The volume bar is back again!!

Thanks for the tips!!

This happened to me too... A clean the contacts in the docking insert (where you charge your phone) gently with a toothbrush or pipe cleaner. I dont know why I didnt think of this sooner... If the right circuit is briged by grit and grime you may have this problem... cleaning it should fix it.

Brushing the dock did the job, thanks for the tips

In iPhones 4/4s 40% chances are dock connector damage by water and other 40% headset jack connector flex damage by water 20% might be liquid damage to the motherboard. seen too many this kind of examples to be different. hope it will help. cleaning with alcohol might not help in long term.

So what I suggest is to replace it for new part(you will avoid IOS update errors!).

In my case it was also a mechanical problem and nothing related to software. I wiggled a credit card in the dock connector and the sound came back momentarily. So I knew that the dock connector on my iPhone 4S had some bad contacts in there. The toothbrush alone didn't help at all but when I sprayed some WD-40 in the connector the sound came back immediately all by itself. Amazing. I keep my iPhone very clean so it wasn't dirt. It must have been simple oxidation. So take some contact spray like WD-40 and give it a try.

I tried tooth brush I was too scared to try alcohol I called a customer service center and I tried to blow suck and even hair dry the ports. I got frustrated because the person on the phone says that we were going to be able to fix it and then I told him a couple more details and he said that it was a hardware issue and so I just hung up and I tried the credit card trick with my ID as a last ditch effort and it worked and im happy. Because I just got this iPhone 4s about 3 months ago. They need to not use us as guinea pigs!!!!! And Actually fix these issues it happened on my gfs iPhone too

I tried everything else suggested then sprayed CRC/WD40 into the charge socket and all fixed. Do it with the power off, don't leave the phone on. Thank you.

von

The volume will only work if I put the charger in it and then remove, each time.

von

After using WD-40 the phone call sounds are fuzzy and there is a streak on the screen. Also, the sound worked for a day or so after putting the charger and taking it off, but now it is not working.

von

Thank you . Had tried everything else and was about to give up then realise I had wd 40 in my cupboard. worked immediately, thanks so much .

I HAVE FINALLY FOUND THE SOLUTION TO THIS! Thanks to a great customer service rep at APPLE who had a familiar problem!

Plug your phone into any iHOME or any docking station type of charger that plays music. Play a song on the docking station music device while its charging. Take it off the charger and enjoy!

1. Find an iHome music device or any music playing device made specifically for the iphone (you can walk into any bestbuy, walmart, etc. that have them on display if you don't have one or don't feel like spending money to use)

Here are a couple of examples of what they look like:

a. http://bit.ly/RULeV1

b. http://bit.ly/Ppz0It

2. Put it on the docking station, until it says its charged, then press the play button on the device until it plays out the speakers of the docking station (I'd play a couple songs on the device before taking it off just to make sure its working..or until a customer rep in the store complains about the loud music LOL)

3. Take it off the docking station and it should be working fine!

4. REJOICE!!

bless all those that use this technique, and get it to work!!

''I tried all the other methods and had no luck including:

  • backup, restoring the phone
  • Resetting the settings of the phone to default
  • Calling a contact and hitting speaker phone two times and hanging up''

thaitanik's solution worked for me: Connected to an iHome dock player, played sound for a few seconds, and disconnected. It was basically acting like it was connected to a dock player (though I hadn't used one) which was confirmed by going to AirPlay where it showed "Dock Connector" as the active output.

If you can't fix it on the hardware side, there is a way you can do in the program side.

Install iFile or other compatible apps.

go to

/System/Library/LaunchDaemons

find

com.apple.iapd.plist

delete it.

There you go. you should get back you volume bar again.

Thanks to a dude from the web that found the solution.

Hope it will help you beside hard working on your iphone's hardwares without any solution.

This is 100% a charge port problem.

I fix mobile phones daily. I have seen this with two iPhone 4S's now. ie Volume button gets a response but no change in level.

Initially, our of curiosity, I installed a new volume/mute button flex cable. This, as I expected, didn't change anything - the exact same problem still occurred.

I cleaned the charge port but no luck. This phone in particular was brought back to life after going for a swim. The charge port was looking particularly nasty.

So I installed a brand new one to confirm whether this would fix it. Immediately this fixed the problem.

Therefore, cleaning the charge port MAY fix it. However, if it doesn't, I would thoroughly suggest changing the charge port entirely. Its a fairly simple procedure and also a cheap part to purchase online yourself and I'm sure there are tutorials on this website showing how to do this job. It doesn't require too much disassembling.

Hope this helps!

I had this issue after plugging in an external speaker to the headphone jack. The speaker worked great but when I unplugged it my volume bar disappeared. When I plugged the speaker back in, it came back. I was going to clean off the dock but decided to just cycle the the phone off and then back on first and that did the trick. I wonder if cleaning the dock is the equivalent of blowing on the Nintendo cartridges, something to do while you accidently fix the problem.

If the problem is related to headphones (the phone says on volume control headphones)just clean the head phone jack

If the problem is about the disappearance of the volume bar... Clean the dock well without destroying it using needle/toothbrush and sometimes alcohol to dissolve the dirt... I had both problems on different occasions and I solved both problems in that way !!

Yours helped me the most. I tried alcohol on a cotton swap in the headphone jack and on a tooth brush in the charge port. Nothing seemed to work except the port gave me back volume but as headphones. I even tried harsh specially made electrical contact cleaner in the charge port. No go! Then I sprayed some right into the headphone port and used my headphones inserting and removing and turning to clean it.(it scrapes as the cleaner disolves). Clean both with heavy duty cleaner and it sould fix it!

I just rang the Apple support line as all the same problems happened to me - No texting sound no incoming text alert no music unless I had my head phones in but the phone did ring with my personalized music ring tones and no swishing when I unlocked the phone.

I was told to got to settings - then sounds - then at the top this page is Silent and I had that on - he told me to turn it off and everything came back - very ODD as it was alway had that button on before, so not sure why, but hey it works again - now I just have to see if its the same issue on my husbands phone as the same thing has happened to him. If in future I want the phone on silent I just use the physical button on the side.

Good luck hopefully a fix for you all!

Contaminates like dust and dirt collect inside the input for the USB sync and charging cable located at the bottom of the iPhone. This condition can cause the volume control bar and related audio to discontinue to function since the cable's connector pins make contact with the volume circuit inside the phone. These tiny contacts are spaced closely and can be short circuited by contaminates quite easily. Spraying a blast of "electrical contact cleaner" directly into the port corrected this same problem on my iPhone. The cleaner contains alcohol which evaporates almost instantly thereby causing no harm to the phone interior. The contact cleaner can be purchased in a hardware store and comes in an aerosol can with an attached tube for the spray head.

My phone is doing the same exact thing. No volume bar, only sound from speaker phone and phone related sounds. Apps and music don't play. My headphone jack was packed full of lint from being in my pocket day after day. I cleaned it out with a paper clip and started working just fine. But after awhile it cut out again. I plugged the headphones in and out several times in a row, started working again. So I assume that when I plugged the headphones in while the jack was packed with lint it must have made a connection come loose. I am close to my upgrade so I am not going to pay the money to have it fixed.

Ok so I found a quick simi-solution to this problem for people with non-jail broken iPhone 4s's and it also doesn't void your warranty.

The problem is def due to a bad docking port in the phone, and if your like me, it wasn't from water or bad use of the phone. It has to be a manufacture mistake or cheap parts. What I did was take the back off your phone. Real easy, two screws at the bottom then slide back upwards. Once you do that. You can test to see if this will fix your problem by pushing the dock connector down with your finger in the bottom left hand corner. If this brings your sound back then you should be able to do what I did. I folded a tiny corner of a sheet of paper twice and put it on that corner of the dock connector. Then put the back back on and the screws back in. The paper puts enough pressure on the dock connected to fix the problem. If this works for you, please let me know my email is nick(at)thismegabites(dot)com if you aren't worried about voiding your warranty I do suggest just replacing the whole dock connector in your phone. It's really not too difficult, but I didn't need to for this worked well for me.

I tried cleaning the headphone jack and docking port, restoring my iphone, resetting all of my settings, plugging and unplugging headphones and chargers, and blowing into every ihole I could find! Very simply, this is all I had to do: I went into my music and started playing a song, took the corner of my debit card and wiggled it around in the docking port. ultimately, I think that the problem was finally fixed when I pushed up from under the post toward the screen. My volume bar came back up on the screen and everything is working perfectly now. Thanks for all your help!

So bizarre. I brushed mine w a toothbrush too, but it didn't work. Then I changed ringtone since someone above mentioned it was one of the things his wife did before it started working again, but that didn't work either. Next, as his wife did as well, I reset one of my alarms until it went off. Now my music works again! Bizarre, but fabulous. Before this, I could still hear music through my headphones, ringer and speaker phone still worked, but music wouldn't work through speakers. Tried almost everything (except the alcohol on the q-tip) and nothing worked until this. Thanks!

Dropped iPhone in commode 2 days ago. Jerked it out super quick. Took out of holster. Sprayed with lysol and dried with paper towel. Took only one 20 second call on full charge yesterday. Housemate tried to call last night but only got voicemail. I looked at it before bed. It had -0- charge. I started reading about "toilet-baptism" of iPhones. I took it out of holster again and put on heating pad at medium for the night. AM full charge but no ringer band indicator; no keyboard sounds, however, I can receive and send and everything else seems to work. I tried the trimmed Q-Tip and Iso-Alcohol in the Headphone Jack and as deep as it would go into the Charging Jack. Now I got a working Headphone Indicator band when I push + or - buttons on the upper left sidein place of the Ringer band. I got out the canned air with the long straw on the nozzle and stuck it deep into the Headphone Jack and Charging Jack and blew the !@#$ out of both. I moved the straw all around the HP Jack. I tried the non-working functions and everything immediately worked. I'm going to put the phone back onto the heating pad for a few hours and again tonight and overnight. It can't hurt and dryness, after what I initially did two days ago, should only help. Keep trying everything. Good Luck.

I was literally rolled my eyes as I read through the posts suggesting the sound problem could be fixed by blowing in the headphone jack and wiggling the corner of a credit card in the dock connector. But I figured it couldn't hurt to try......

You know the rest of this story. Of course it worked!

The credit card fixed my problem too. If the airplay choices show dock connector and not iPhone when there is no dock connected, then it is a hardware problem with the dock connector. It appears that if the pins inside the dock connector are too close to the back of the phone, the proximity is enough for the iPhone to think a dock is plugged in and turn off the iPhone sound. The credit card can be used to bend the connector so it is more in the middle of the slot. This fixed the problem for me. Since it is just proximity of the pins, changes in moisture levels can cause the problem to appear or disappear, but bending the connector to the middle of the slot is what permanently fixed the problem for me.

After trying EVERYTHING the credit card was on the money.... still can't believe it worked. Thank you so much to all those who made the suggestion.

I also had same problem after placing my iPhone in the cup holder of my minivan without knowing there had been apple juice spilled inside!!!!

I cleaned the dock connector with credit card. Didn't work. With alcohol and toothbrush. Didn't work. Then I noticed some blackish stuff in the grooves of the dock connector so I slid a toothpick up and down the surface a few times in each groove. That seemed to do the trick. Probably sum dried up apple juice that tricked the iPhone to thinking it was docked. Thanks all for the other posts!!!

Please note. The toothpick did crack so be careful not to break it off inside.

I FIXED MY PROBLEM ... I bought a different brand cord. Every time it is connected to the phone it cuts off the sound and the ringer bar disappears. I unplug it, it comes back. Phone ringer is not affected by the cord, though.

I'm came to this site and found that alcohol cleaning method works! Strange, however it works! Thank you so much!

1. I took a q-tip, dipped it in Isopropyl alcohol

2. Wiped it lightly in the charging port and headphone jack.

3.I blew it lightly to dry it for a few seconds (although the alcohol drys by itself easily)

4. It worked!

I had the same problem no sound when playing music, youtube etc. No sound bar. Tried everything from cleaning to a new earphone contact installed. No sound.

But guess what: The problem was the FACEBOOK app.

After installing version 42.0 all sound is back.

Hmm, can I get a check from Facebook for unnecessary repair cost ???

Clean the charging port with a pin. Usually it’s filled with lint. Otherwise change the chargering port. Easy fix, shouldn’t cost $5.

Hi,


If the volume bar has disappeared on your iPhone 4 and there's no sound in apps, here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue: Check the physical buttons, Restart your iPhone, Check the mute switch, Adjust volume in Settings, Check app-specific settings, Reset all settings. If none of these steps solve the problem, there may be a more complex issue with your iPhone 4's hardware or software. In that case, you may consider contacting Apple Support or visiting an authorized service center for further assistance.
