A cheapo flip phone as you call it are useful, and if some individuals for 
whatever reason fell more confortable with dialing a number on a button phone 
there's nothing wrong with that. Especially considering all the more, if they 
are just getting use to navigating the touch screen on  wit being their new 
iphone and you're rightit takes practice. Though until one has had  time to get 
use to it, in the meantime for times when they are out somewhere or other 
crucial times, for some individuals, dialing on a button phone and being able 
to do it quickly may be best. After all, everyone has their own ways of doing 
things and learning,. That practice time can vary to from person to person. I'm 
very confortable in dialing a phone number on a touch screen, though equally I 
still like dialing on a button phone, whether it be a cordless phone, a cell 
phone or wired phone. I've only been at this for about 3 months, finding 
buttons while being in a call, plus other details, answering a call waiting, 
then going back to the first caller, and making a 3 way call, finding all those 
important buttons will take more practice.

  As Richard suggested, just disable the automatic switching in Voiceover 
Settings > Audio.

  I don’t agree with the statement that the phone part of the iPhone is the 
worst part and I would never carry some cheapo flip phone just to make phone 
calls, this would mean having two cell contracts since I assume these people 
would still want to have service on the iPhone  for texting and so on.

  I might agree if somebody has physical issues which make it difficult to use 
the touch screen, but for people who have normal use of their hands I think 
it’s just practice.

  The phone is the worst part of the iPhone.  i seldom take or make calls on my 
iPhone.  In fact, I know some folks who have a cheap cell phone that they use 
for calls and they use their iPhone for the other neat stuff you can do.

Hi Marie,

I had this same problem with my iPhone SE, and IOS 9,and since I can't 
stand speaker phones anyway,

I went into settings and disabled the ability to use speaker phone.

and I use only headphones

You might want to give this a try!

In my opinion, the iPhone is the worst cell phone I have ever had,

  I think Marie already said she doesn’t consider this to be a good solution 
because then if she needs to enter numbers after a phone call she can’t hear 
Voiceover.

  With automatic switching turned off you would have to find the Speakerphone 
button in order to put the call on the external speaker, this is the behaviour 
sighted people get. Of course they can see the button so it’s no big deal, with 
Voiceover you have to hold the phone somewhat close to your ear so you can 
still hear Voiceover and find the button but not close enough so the proximity 
sensor kicks in and disables the touch screen.

  Of course the alternative here is a headset and in fact even with automatic 
switching a headset will prevent this from happening.

  Subject: Speaker phone issue

  I have an IPhone seven which goes to speaker phone when my ear is up against 
the phone and it is happening all too often. I have spoken to Apple and they 
are aware of the problem but have no solution. It is nerve racking and actually 
hurts my ear. Is there any possibility of lowering the volume of the speaker 
phone before it damages the only ear which still has hearing?

The speaker phone works as I would expect it to work on my iphone 7. When I 
hold the phone away from my ear for a second or two, the speaker comes on and 
goes off if I replace the phone to my ear.

As Richard suggested, just disable the automatic switching in Voiceover 
Settings > Audio.

I don’t agree with the statement that the phone part of the iPhone is the worst 
part and I would never carry some cheapo flip phone just to make phone calls, 
this would mean having two cell contracts since I assume these people would 
still want to have service on the iPhone  for texting and so on.

I might agree if somebody has physical issues which make it difficult to use 
the touch screen, but for people who have normal use of their hands I think 
it’s just practice.

I went into settings and disabled the ability to use speaker phone.

You might want to give this a try!

In my opinion, the iPhone is the worst cell phone I have ever had,

Sounds like a proximity sensor problem, where the sensor is sometimes 
thinking your phone is held to your ear and sometimes thinking it isn't. I 
suppose a good cleaning (be sure to look up how to properly clean touch 
screens) couldn't hurt, particularly around the sensors. In the meantime, 
you can go to Settings  General  Accessibility, and choose the Call 
Routing option. Set this to whichever you want; you can still use the 
speakerphone, but you'll have to manually enable it instead of letting it 
switch automatically.

 right against my face thinking maybe it's not close enough, but sometimes
 the phone works fine and sometimes it just flip flops between speaker and

 works when I specifically tell it to.
 I have a 4s with almost up to date software, haven't updated to the last

Re: speaker phone issue

2015-04-24 Thread Alex Hall
I haven't tested this, but I believe headset here refers to the small speaker 
at the top of the phone. Again, I haven't tried that personally so could be 
wrong.

 Thanks for this. Question, if it's set permanently to head set then does 
 that mean I need to use ear phones with it?

 Sounds like a proximity sensor problem, where the sensor is sometimes 
 thinking your phone is held to your ear and sometimes thinking it isn't. I 
 suppose a good cleaning (be sure to look up how to properly clean touch 
 screens) couldn't hurt, particularly around the sensors. In the meantime, 
 you can go to Settings  General  Accessibility, and choose the Call 
 Routing option. Set this to whichever you want; you can still use the 
 speakerphone, but you'll have to manually enable it instead of letting it 
 switch automatically.

 Hi all:
 Recently my phone has started switching from regular to speaker phone 
 while
 I'm on a call. I'll have it to my ear and it just switches. I try to keep 
 it
 right against my face thinking maybe it's not close enough, but sometimes
 the phone works fine and sometimes it just flip flops between speaker and
 regular phone. Any fix for this? Can I disable speaker phone so it only
 works when I specifically tell it to.
 I have a 4s with almost up to date software, haven't updated to the last 
 one
 yet, but this has been ongoing through several software updates.
 Thanks for any help
 Tessa
