Ordered a dock on eBay and the seller had the audacity to tell me it was a problem with my iPhone. Negative feedback coming his way! This easy fix took less than 5 minutes.

Turn out the resistor was the issue. 10 seconds at my soldering station and the problem is fixed. My dock will never see speakers - its just a charging and syncing station for my iphone near the computer. Thanks for the tutorial - I dont think I would have been able to get inside the unit without this tutorial! Took longer to open the dock than it did to remove the smd resistor :) Couldn’t work out why it wasnt making any sound – I though the dock had a close to airtight seal around the speakers and caused the sound to be so muffled I couldnt hear it.

You were the first hit in Google for "iphone dock mute" too. Thanks! Marcel: I liked your take on this too, nice hack! Brettville: I had the same problem after some moisture got in around my mute / vibrate switch. I followed an iPhone disassembly guide on iFixit and bought a replacement part off eBay. From memory the part was the "headphone flex cable" or something similarly named, and cost around $10 shipped. Good luck! Ashley: Great find, great explanation.

It has worked perfectly as I only want this to charge and no line out. Thanks for this. It has worked perfectly as I only want this to charge and no line out.

I have an app to block the popup but the sound still mutes :( Is there a way to disable the dock mute on the software side because my iPhone must need cleaning as it mutes my sound every 5 seconds.

I got mine and was afraid I wasn't going to able to use it. I was able to scrape off the resistor with a screwdriver, be careful. You da man!
