Why has my iPhone 4S lost the volume controls?

Volume controls are missing everywhere wher they should be. This ha happened before and apple gave me a new phone. This is my third iPhone 4S since the day they came out. Is this a common fault? How do I fix it cos the warranty is ran out now?

Try factory restore. My iPhone 4S never did that.

Mine did that too. It seems quite a commn fault (google it)

Your phone thinks its sitting on a dock. Blow up its charger hole really hard, then connect and disconnect the charger a dozen or so times. Jiggle it a bit each time you do it but not aggressively.

I repeated the about 10 times over a couple of days and it eventually worked.

I used the hair dryer (set to hot )and blow the charger opening for a few seconds, that brings the volume back!

  • Parental Controls for iPhone? I have an iPhone 4, and my parents said every night at 9:30 my phone will shut off. Is it true? Does my phone completely shut off? Is there any way to get it not to if it does?

  • Iphone app that controls lights? I heard there's an app where you can control the lights on your iphone if you forgot to turn them off at home. However, I heard some apps you actually need to pay for the service if its Lutron or whatnot. Some apps are free but you have to order some other service thingy. Is there a free app that just requires Wi-Fi and no electronic charge all around the house?
