I can't hear calls but they can hear me?

I have an iphone 5 and i can't hear calls unless it is on speaker. Can you please tell me the problem and how to f ix it!

I hate to say it, but it is the speaker. There's no way to fix it, but to get a new phone. Sorry.

The same thing happened to me after I dropped my phone. It is the speaker. I bought a new one and changed it but it didn't work, probably because something else is wrong as well. So annoying!

Same thing happened to my friend if it is less than a yr old then you are under warranty and then you can get it replayced. If not just invest in some headphones ti plug in when you get a call

Yes, the ear speaker is busted. If it's under warranty, take it to Apple. If the warranty expired on it, (you could be a day or so late on it, as long as it's within one year) they might still replace it. If they charge you to replace it, might as well use a Bluetooth headset anyway and deal with the broken ear speaker. Bluetooth headsets are cheap and affordable and are excellent for usage when you're driving (or walking).

It is repairable, but you have to be very good with your hands in order to replace your speaker.

  • Why can I not hear when I make phone calls on my iphone 4s? Whenever I try to phone people, I can't hear either them speaking or the dialing then beeping. It has worked in the past and I have not changed my settings, but the last call which I could hear I listened using my headphones.
  • When i call someone on my iphone they can't hear me and i can't hear them why?

I'm sorry i meant i CAN hear them but they can't hear me
  • IPHONE-when I make a phone call I can't hear the caller and the caller can't hear me? When I make a phone call I can't hear the caller and the caller can't hear me. Also, when i try to put it on speaker, it goes off speaker in a couple seconds. I can't even hear the dial tone or the voice box if a person doesn't answer. - my volume is all the way up - i don't have my phone on do not disturb or airplane mode
  • IPhone 5 volume very low? Can't hear calls? When the phone rings, you can hear it very clearly.same goes for message tones etc. but when it comes to trying to talk to someone on the phone, I can hardly hear a thing. The volume is very low. I've tried putting the volume up but it already says it's on the highest volume.what's the problem here? nothing's covering the speaker.
