hey all. My Friend had a problem with his Prophet where there was no sound on the internal speakers on his Prophet, but a headset worked ok.
He hard reset his Prophet to no avail, but when he asked me, I remembered a similar problem on the E200 (or Canary).
It seems that the headset socket is a bit sensitive, and there's some kind of trigger letting it know when the headset is in. This trigger sometimes gets stuck when the jack is removed, as if there was still a headset plugged in > hence no sound thru speakers.
Solved it this time by plugging the headset in, and taking it out using pressure at various angles. I've also read about toothpicks being used on the Canary, but I'd advise against anything that could break of inside of, or damage (like a hair clip) your device.
anyway, the device fall down?
No, it works fine now.
Great!!! now all you have to do is enjoy the time you lose with your device.
Have fun! :lol:
imate JAMin Built-in Speaker hardware failure
I had to get my speaker hardware replaced.
Bad news!
Mine is back for repair due to speaker issues. Sounds like I am not alone ....
And the really bad news is that apparently the replacement audio parts are not in stock - it could take a month plus before I get my device back
It's already been 3 weeks.
This sucks.
Be patient.
Now I have some problems with my device and all I have to do is forget the device for a day and after that put all the attention on it.
Hope you can find the right place to fix it. Good luck!!!
Looks like i have this problem too. I noticed the speaker have some crackling sound sometimes and sometimes it's ok. But today it went dead. tried inserting the jack but no result.
repair neccessary
My Prophet (Orange SPV M600). Is back at Orange to be repaired fr the same problem also.
The speaker on the back of the Prophet started to get dissorted and after two days stopped working at all.
Two days later I found that if you tap on the back of the device, it sometimes worked again. Always only for a minute or so.
In the Orange store they took the device apart to check the connectors. No luck.
Now it has been sent for repairs to??????
Let you know when it has been fixed.

You can do a hard reset to go back to factory defaults (includes the register).
If then still you have no sound, I'm afraid you will have to return it to O2 for repairs.
btw, a hard reset you can perform by holding both the camera and the communications button on the left hand site of the device and then to stick the stylus in the rest hole at the bottom.
The device will prompt you to hit the send button to format your device. This is a hard reset.
Good luck!

Did you have any luck with your speakers problem?
I am facing the same problem and, although I reset it (and tried applying a previous backup which was working fine), I am still unable to make it work... I have to admit that I was playing with the registry a couple of days back, but I don't think that I caused anything by doing so.
Please update on your situation... I have an Orange UK SPV M600.

Mine has been repaired by Orange.

Hi everybody
Since yesterday, unfortunly my Qtek S100 doesn`t have any sound output (after using it with earphones as mp3 player). Somebody had the same problem or knows how to resolve?
i forgot...
i forgot: i am also unable to make phonecalls, because also the phone speaker gives no output...
had the same problem myself recently. Mine was due to the headphone socket switch getting stuck (It still thinks your headphones are plugged in). trying plugging in your headphones again and removing them. Sorted my prob

Oh, big thx man... have same problem on t-mobile mda compact... try everything, i realy think that this is end and be ready to go into service... Thx again for you msg - all work now =))) I'm - the happiest man in da world after that! Respect from Russia and gl to you!
Perhaps resolved...
If your HTC has no sound output (after using earphones)...
>>connect your earphones and make an soft reset...
>>unplug (with the HTC oterwise started) your phones and voila: the speaker will work again (perhaps only for some time... after you have to try the procedure again :-(

This happened to me with My O2 XDA Mini 4 weeks after I got the phone and I never used a headset. I had to send it in for repair and they replaced the speaker. When I got it back the speaker worked but the volume was VERY low. After the second repair and second speaker everything worked for 2 months. Speaker Low again. I sent it in for repair for the third time. I am told that they replaced the phone after long phone conversations with O2. I should get it back in two days. We'll see how long this one lasts for.
Hi everyone
My o2 mini speaker dead last week , does not work at all , I installed the image but no diffrence , any suggestion ????
I also had a problem with the speaker. It occured after using the headset. The problem could be solved with plugging the headset again and detaching it with a quick movement (the phone was working cerrectly with the headset plugged). Don't know what is the reason, but sometimes after long use of the headset the problem turns up after unplugging the set. Try this, maybe it helps you too.
hi
i read about it somewhere in the forum.
its just because of a switch inside.
no need to worry about a major problem.
just like what Szilu said, plug it in and out firmly.
hope this helped!
regards
chester
-edit-
oh and its not due to long usage
i suffered this situation too...but O2 Centre can fix it within 1 day...real quick!
it's just because of the very FRAGILE audio jack that is installed in ur MINI. When u unplugged ur headset, the phone "doesn't know u unplugged the jack" so it assumes that it is still plugged in...so no sound will be channeled to the speakers...
try on...put in ur headset again, u will hear everything thru headset but not the speakers.
what u can do is VISIT O2 Customer Centre...small case...dun worry!
Same problem with me too
hi. i'm having the same problem - and - i don't have any JAM service centre near my place....or in the entire state....so i was planning to open it up and see if i can fix it from the inside...

Thanks for saving me a few hundred dollars, hassle, downtime
Wow, what a resource this has been! I came here months ago when I wanted to upgrade my system. Now it just saved me who knows how much in service costs. My speaker stopped working as well and I was sure my device was completely messed up until I checked this forum.
I tried what you suggested and it worked perfectly! I had to plug the headset out twice, I guess the first time I didn't do it fast enough. You really have to give a quick tug.
Thanks for the valuable advice!
P.S. Now I have lost my excuse to upgrade to the imate K-Jam. Oh well, all in good time. :lol:
Put my money where my comment is
I've made a donation to the forum to thank you for this helpful advice.
Ok, so I didn't donate as much as I would have paid a technician but...hey, it's something

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my XDA Exec, basically, the internal phone speaker doesn't seem to work. External one is fine (the one on the outside of the case) but the one next to the screen does nothing.
It did work when I first bought it. I have since upgraded to the latest o2 rom. However I cannot remember if it stopped working exactly then or later!! Daft I know!
So I just wanted to ask if anyone else had this problem after upgrading the rom (I am using 1.30.107 WWE, radio version 1.09.00), and if so, is there a way to fix it? If there is no one else with this then I guess it is a hardware fault and will return it for repair, but wanted to check.
Cheers
Rick
Anyone? I don't mind if the answer is just "Mine works fine", I just want to know if anyone else has experienced this with the same rom version as mine, before I condemn it and return it to the shop.
I have the same o2 rom as you mentioned, and have encountered no problems. Im sure its a hardware problem, caused by dropping the phone etc, rather than a software one.
o2 offer a free replacement within 1 month if you got it directly from them, or I suppose you could get it repaired from somewhere. Im not sure if the speaker is covered under warranty, but might be worth a shot!
Thanks. I have had it about 4 months now I think, I would bloody hope the speaker is covered by the warranty though, phone ain't much use without it :shock:
By the way, are you sure the incall volume is turned up!!! Just making sure!
If it is, why not try a hard reset just to see if it helps!
Just gone through the same problem.
First of all try to put the jack of the headset inside the hole and twistle it.
If it doesn't solve the problem, I'm afraid you need a replacement.
I had the same problem a week ago. Every speaker worked, except the one next to the display. The problem appeared somehow over night ... I definitely didn't drop the phone or did something "rude" with it.
Unfortunately, I don't have the original headset to exercise this plugin/plugout/twisteling method as mentioned by lautunno, so I tried this with a regular headphone. Without direct success
A hard reset didn't change anything.
... but after a few days of trying almost everything, the speaker started to work again and still works without any interruptions :?
I'm not sure if it's really hardware related because there are so many people with the same problem and almost everyone of them has fixed the problem by just powercycling the phone many times, plugging the headset in and out, fiddling around with the phone app, etc.
As far as I know, the radio firmware is responsible for addressing this speaker (because it's only useable as a phone speaker) and this part of the device firmware doesn't get resetted when you do a hard reset. Maybe it stores some settings (like headphone mode?) in an EEPROM or something like this.
Anyway, good luck and keep trying.
.ox
ps.: I'm also using the O2 firmware (1.30.96 GER) but I've upgraded the radio stack to version 1.11.00.
I have a problem with my Xda Exec, the sound dont work and also the microphone only works the phone speaker, i can hear the tone but i cant speak, anybody knows how to fix it?

Welcome tot he forum
Hoping that is not a hardware related problem I would do a reflash to try to solve it
Read in the Wiki on how to
Hope it helped,
That happens one day in the car travelling home that the sound suddly stop working i restart the xda and everything (not reflash) but nothing work i will try to reflash it because i think is not a hardware problem
is the first time i try to reflash my pda but i have a problem when i try to downgrade it that shows error 260 and i dont know how to fix it
ok, i fix the problem with upgrade xD my english is not good at all and i missunderstand some of the instructions, but after read 100k of threats and 5 hours trying things now is upgrading to tomal rom i hope that this will fix the problem i had before
after reflashing the ce two times the sound is still not working, i am updating now the radio from 1.09 to 1.15, the stereo speakers make a little bit of noise when a sound is played, the headphones dont work, the phone speaker works propertly, and the microphone works but only send the voice to the phone speaker ¿? i dont know why happens this last thing
radio updated and the problem continues anybody can help?
I think it´s a hardware related problem
Try to take it to a repair center
Good luck,
I have the same problem. When a sound is played it just clicks and that's all. I had a problem with my ribon cable and I took it out. I've done that before (it's my second cable failing), so I knew what I was doing. I was off for a about a month untill I got a now cable. When I put it back together, I had no sound, just that click thing. I can't take it to a repair center. If anyone has a solution, please share.
I also found that my camera does not work. It says Failed to initialize camera. 36001:100:1. I tried a different rom, but still have the problem.
Also I tried to make a phone call (I'm not using it as a main phone, that's why I just found that out) and I can hear the other person, but they can't hear me.

i also check my camera after reading your comment and i also have the same problem, next month (because this month i will travel and i cant do it) i will send it to repair a tell you what the solution could be
PD: orb3000 muchas gracias por ser tan atento
I have good news. Something happened. I dont know what i did... but i got my sound back (and camera. main camera at least).
As you I flashed the rom, then the radio rom and I still got the problem. So I thought I'll leave it like that untill I find a solution. And I thought.. well i can at least play some games on it and I downloaded Archibald. I put it on the phone. Started it and ?! I had sound. Again I dont know if I did something before that, but I got it working. I'll attach the game, maybe it did something. Give it a try.
Again I have no idea what I did. It might have some bad connections somewhere. I remember I had the same problem (either with the Universal or the Wizard) but dont remember how I fixed it.
Here is a link for the game:
i install it but the miracle didnt happens i also will try to remove the battery it have on the motherboard to make a cmos clear (like in a normal computer). Lucky you i will keep trying
I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't if it matters but my small mb battery is dead. Apperantly it died during the month the battery was out. Everything works except that when I do a soft reset, the clock resets too.
I have these problems too, does anyone know the specification of the mobo battery?
I have the sound problem but mine doesnt work even with headphones in and i also have a problem with the keys being activated when the screen is in a certain position. Could all of these problems be casued by the ribbon cable?Rob
As far as my expirience goes with the ribon cable, it commands the touch, the lcd, mic, speaker on the lcd part. the keyboard has it's own cable. and it snaps to the motherboard. maybe it's loose or something. For the battery I got http://cgi.ebay.com/Dopod-D900-900-T-mobile-MDA-IV-Qtek-9000-backup-Battery_W0QQitemZ350170469398QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGPS_Accessories_Cablesthis on ebay. But mine looks a little different.
also happens to me when i make a soft reset the clock also restart could be all because the mb battery is dead?
OK, we are getting somewhere Since my sound got back, whenever I reset I get to keep my current time. So maybe my mb battery fixed itself or charged.
I am pretty sure now that is what's causing the problems. If you could disassemble your pda, try playing with the battery. See if it is not loose or something. Try to short-circut it. Get a something form metal and touch both pins. Also try leaving your PDA charging over night.
I hope you fix it since I cant seem to find that kind of battery over the internet.
During a phone call today the microphone on my HTC HD2 stopped working - I can hear conversations fine but callers cannot hear me anymore - or only very faint. It works fine if I use a Bluetooth headset. By now I tried soft resets as well as also a hardware reset back to factory defaults with no success...I don't have a functional microphone on the unit itself. Anyone experienced this? Any ideas? Emailed HTC support with no response yet...
Thanks. TC

Try testing it with the voice recoder program, just to confirm its definately the mic..
Same thing - it does not record anything. What a a bummer...TC
speakers falling apart, mic's falling apart....
Seems alot of problems with this phone
Yeah, it is a great phone and I love the screen and resolution and responsiveness. But being able to make a phone call is still kind of important on a phone...
Now I get to ship this thing around the globe and hope to get something which last more then 10 days the next go around :-(

If you are in the USA there is usually a 14 day period (30 days in California). I highly suggest you run down to a tmobile store and have it replaced.
Tried rebooting (or even hard resetting) your device? Maybe its a driver or radio problem...
i heared installing fring or skype gives problem like this...is there any fix for that..

I used to have this problem with my Hermes when I installed WOW HD settings... try a hard reset and/or Task 29 and then use the same stock ROM or a cooked one... (do a backup first)
Did someone solve this problem and how?I`ve sent my phone 3 times for guaratntee repair and nothing.
I`m wondering if only people in this post had this problem?!?
Hi Everyone,
Has anyone found a solution for this problem? My problems started yesterday, the person on the other side can't hear me, while i'm still able to hear them. It started outta the blue, it was fine and just stopped working, without any changes at all.
I have tried 4 different radios and 3 different roms and still the same. Also tried using voice recorder with every change made and nothing happened.
i Bought the phone while on a trip and do not have any warranty or proof of purchase.
Getting desperate!
EDITED:
Hey Everyone,
I think i have just found a solution (kinda).
As is said i was getting desperate, so i got a toothpick and stuck into the microphone hole and voila, it worked!!!! well i don't know if i might have damaged anything or this probably won't do any good for the phone or the microphone but it worked for me. please try at your own risk.
Thanks alot, bro, it helped me!
