My IPhone 4S Volume/Ringer won't work?

Ok so my phones a year old or so and it was my dads first. He dropped it in a lake and the lights permanently on then a couple days ago I dropped my phone screen first into mud and the volume won't work… Any ideas of how to fix it?

Possible solutions:

1. Test out your sound if it works by playing music.
2. Test out your sound by going to Sounds in Settings and adjusting the volume bar and changing ringtones and SMS tones.
3. Tell someone to text you and call you and see if any sounds pop up.
4. Turn off your phone for 1 minute then turn it back on again and see if it works.
5. Restore your iPhone.

If none of these work, bring it to the Apple Store or seek Customer Service. Also if you have warranty on it, get it renewed while you still have it.

  • Why won't the volume on my iPhone work? My iPhone 4 won't play any music with my earphones in, when I go to the app it says it the volume is unavailable. I checked all my other apps on my phone that play music and they all said the same thing. Is there anything I can do to fix it?

  • My iphone 3gs volume don't work they only work when you put earphones in? I recently repaired my 3gs because all the buttons were broken. But they still had worked i just needed buttons on because it was hard to put the volume up or down. So when all the buttons were fixed i can only use the earphones too adjust the volume from the side if i take the earphones off i can't hear my music or game sound… So how do i fix this?
