Trouble with sound in i-mate jam

sometimes my i-mate jam loses system sounds from main speaker especially when headphones are attached and then detached. it means that it doesn't ring when somebldy calls me, or it doesn't play music from main speaker, though I still can speak and hear from phone speaker. when the headphones are returned to the place everything seems to be ok, soft reset doesn't help. this is the second jam with the same problem among my friends, please help!

i think this has been discussed b4..it has to do with the fragile audio port on your mini..apparently the contacts not too good so when you remove the headset, the JAM still thinks you have it on.

i tried fiddling with the audio jack and the headset a lot.. i don't have any sound on my speakers since over a week now...i can talk properly - and have set it for vibrate..hard reset also didn't work...

thanks, I heared something about that but could not find the topic. so what can be done to get rid of the problem without going to service? is there something I can do myself?
or is there a possibility that devices mady under other brands will function better? i have a chance to exchange my i-mate for brand new mda compact with little cash on it. i realise that this is the same device, but may be some difference in quality?

ihave just read a thread about this problem. they say insert your headphone jack then remove it quickly. ive never experienced this problem yet with my imate new jam. hope not

Try flicking the ear-piece area with your finger. Had to do this to my wife's mini when she dropped it both times. It seems the speaker looses contact when bumped. HTH.

Prevent the Phone from ringing out loud when on headphones?

Hi,
I noticed that my Wizard (updated to the last WWE rom) rings out loud through the speaker when receiving a call while headphones are connected through the jack. I'd like it to only ring in the headphones. Is it possible? Is this a known issue?
Thanks.
EDIT: I just found the solution myself:
I set the key \\\registry\HKCU\Control Panel\SoundCategories\Ring\Speaker to 0. It works!

This is just GREAT. Big thx for finding this, been looking for this for a long time, checked all the music players but none offered it. Thx again

i was looking for this too
thanks!

This is great BUT... is there a way to have the mic work while on the headphones? Because when I get a call while on my headphones I have to pull out the headphone jack in order for the other person to hear me. This would be great and very useful.

it might be a hardware issue?
it worked fine on my jam (i use the treo adaptor) and not my wizard
i'll have to test the stock jam headset on the wizard to know for sure
well it'd be better if i was wrong

Just to clarify, does the registry edit turn the ring off the speaker permanently, or just whent he headphones are plugged in?
Cheers.

Just when the headpones are plugged in.

NO SOUND - JAMin

I have an IMATE JamIn .
No sound comes out of its speaker!!!!!!!!!
When i put the earphones I can listen to all sounds. However with no earphones inserted, the JAMin speaker does NOT WORK!!!!!!!
PLEASE HELP !!!!!!

You must replace your Speaker, your spearker is broken

I've posted on quite a few threads but here goes again.. my HTC Charmer speaker got dead and I have to send it back for repair. After that, it works like a charm.

Your speaker is probably not broken.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=47702.
PS this has been discussed in many places. A searchwould have been useful.

Again: Saound problem in Jamin

Hello,
I have am I-mate jamin with (i guess) the first ROM released (1.09.25).
When i received a call, and specially with more feminist voice, the sound have a noise, something like "ztztztztz". More or less like dust or piece of sand in a car speaker.
Do you have experience that ?
With a ROM update this will be fixed ?
Thanks in advance
Many regards

possible speaker problem
Have you tried with a wired or blue tooth earpiece? If the problem goes away with an external speaker then I would suggest that you may have an internal speaker problem.
Either way, take it back to you store to be checked.
Regards,
Tony

Front speaker distorsion

Hi all.
Yesterday I did a long journey, using the TomTom (100% volume) all the time and making and recieving some calls with my pioneer p55bt.
And now, when I make a call, the front speaker distorts a lot, even at the minimun volume.
I've read a lot about similar stuff, but always happening with the rear speaker (generally, it became mute). That would be more logical, but mine still works fine.
What can I do? (I've tried a hr, but obviouly it didn't worked) Do I have to replace it? What speaker can I use? Is it hard to change?
It's a bit urgent :S
Thanks a lot.

One possibility is to change the front speaker.
Read the Wiki here: http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=240109
on how to open the S200.
First buy a front speaker for your S200 on ebay. like this guy:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Int-Small-speak...ryZ43311QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem
it will cost you 10USD and its definately worth it!
G`luck!!
(nb! first make sure the speaker really is kaputt!)
