i dont know why, but my jam has lost all its sounds after seraching on the forum i m convinced it is a problem with the ear piece but what is confunsing me that when i make a call i can hear the sound clearly but still there is no sound of ring tones or even the mp3 i play...............please tell me i have an alternative to disabssambling it
same problem
I believe i had the same issue.. and what i did wat do a hard reset and it solved the problem...
Perhaps you should try..
Possible causes of sound failure from main speaker are:
1. A2DP patch - there are threads discussing solutions to this problem.
2. Constant plugging/unplugging headset - does sound come out of the headset?
3. A hard bump to the unit causing a loose contact to the speaker terminals.
If the 1st two are not the culprits, then your next option is to hard reset and if that doesn't solve the problem then your last resort is to dismantle and clean the speaker contacts.
thank you guys for your help, i have hard reset the device..............but problem still there i think i will have to disassemble
any ways thank you for your help.............u guys are angels
No sound
I Had no sound from speaker took the top section off which unclips to show the speaker and when i gentley pressed the speaker sound came out of it...Have to get a new speaker. put a tiny piece of foam from an earplug between the case and the speaker for now.It works but not quite as loud as normal.......but it is a fix if yures is the same problem........
it is a hardwar issue not a software
you have to open the phone and check the earpeice first and after that you have to check the thing under the earpeice because it has a connector attached to the board . therefore you have to check the legs of the connector
that is all :wink:

I lost the loudspeaker-sound in my Himalya. It works using headphones. I think it may have to do with another set of headphone I connected to it, which was not original. Perhaps it put the device on permanent headphone mode. But then again it might not have anything to do with that.
Is there a Himalaya expert in Berlin - Germany who might be able to help me with it? I dread having to send it to the official reapir center, as I expect it to cost a neck and a hand.
Happened to me when I received a call whilst listening to music. I pulled the headphones out before answering the call, and then answered it. I could here them but they cvouldn't hear me. If you plug the headphones in again and remove them it solves the problem. Well it did for me anyway
I tried that. I doesn't do it. It doesn't matter what kind of sound, if Media Player file is played of phone ringing, only the headphones work. I think I need a dotor.
I have read a lot about the problem in others threads. It seems the headphone-jack can get stuck, not making a contact, which normally is being made and which turns the XDA back to speaker mode, when the headphone-jack is pulled out. Hereto:
1- What does that mean exactely? Which part is that, in what part in the on-board jack? If it had been bent out of place, is it possible to bend the part pack (at best without having to disassemble)? (I tried the ramming in and out, no go).
2- I looked at the non-original jack I had used and it is about 2 mm longer than the original. Might perhaps that explain it? Is there a part in the back that could have been bent out of place?
3- If indeed this was the problem (if the jack had been bent out of place, one way or another), would the microphone work? I can record using the dictaphone and the micophone also works during a call.
When we had himalaya's it happened to both of our devices (my wife and I had one each).
It appears the spring in the speaker can come loose. I used to bang mine (pardon the pun) on my palm and sometimes it would start to work. Then we broke the speaker protection shield, and this made it easier sometimes and hard to fix in others.
When I sold it, my friend took it apart as it was out of warranty, and as he is electrically minded, he find the dodgy bit, and soldered it to the device, and now works perfectly.
Yes! Thanks Jasjar. It worked after a bit of beating.
I found a detailed instruction of how to fix it permanently in another thread. Sounds complicated and dangerous but eventually I must do it.

Sorry for kicking the topic, but this was the solution for me. I just poked in the headphone-jack with a little stick and tataaaa... my sound is back!
Sound lost problem
Hi all,
same happen to me, the sound stoped working (on my side it had nothing to do with the phone jack).
After the modifaication which is described in this forum i had still the same problem so i solder the loud speaker directly - still same problem...
After some time i flashed the device again, now it works, so on my side it was a software problem...
The device was 3 month out of power, but i think remove the battery and if the sound appears on startup (on first boot) but later not, then flash the os and it will work ...

Hi!

Now when I unlocked it for my network (polish ERA-GSM) I saw that when I'm calling I cant hear anything. Person from the other sight can't hear me too..
XDA have sound becose I used media-player ando other sound stuff, thats why I think that speaker is ok. Microphone is ok too becose I can record animations with sound.
So what should I do now? ;/
Plese help...
Just for reference:
A friend of mine had this 2020, and both Speakerphone and mic were not working.
When somebody called, the ringtone DID sound.
Anyway, bluetooth handsfree worked fine.
All we did was play with the jack, using the stylus! Not even headphones...
And now it works fine!
He says he'll never put phones on it again... lol
cu around!
Looking for more Info
Hi, please help me find which points in the MDAII Motherboard can I solder to disable the headphones and get the audio and mic back to the MDA.
After a while my headphone-jack is broken from the motherboard and now I only have the pin outs in it.
The device is working perfect, and I can use bluetooth headphones. I just don't have audio in the speaker and no mic without bluetooth.
I hope someone can tell me which of the red points en the picture can I solder to disable the headphones.
I just want to do this temporally until I get a replacement spare part for it.
Thanks
EDIT: 12-12-2007
I got it. Just joining 1 and 3 and you will get audio back to the PDA disabling the headphones jack.
Thanks anyways for reading this..
Did you find out what all the mboard pins are for the jack?
I have a dodgy jack and would like to take flying leads of the mboard jack to an external (easily changed) inline jack. Does any know what the 1 to 6 pins correlate to. I would like to still switch the audio via the external jack. Not bothered about the mic.
TIA.
I have the same problem:
No sound during call, however speakerphone works and headset works well. There is no sound only when I use it as regular phone. Person on the other line can hear me well all the time.
When I raise volume during call I can hear peices of the person on the other line, at the same time as phone beeps that it reached sound maximum.
This happened after phone was dropped and it hard reset itself automatically.
I am trying to reboot it now with different ROM.
Headset jack hasnothing to do with it, since speakerphone works well.
If anybody has any idea please share.
Thanks
This is a hardware issue, (the audio for the internal speaker and microphone is routed via the headphone socket) The socket has a very small switch that is opperated by physically inserting the jack plug. Sometime mine plays up and I fix it by pushing a straigtened out paperclip into the socket.
Delete wrong forum
Big Thanks DOC C
This is the first time i post a reply even though i've been a member of xda-developers for a long time and like the work done here. I must say that I was about to throw my phone if it wasn't for DOC D. The problem is indeed with the headphone jack. Sound in my earphones is messed up and phone calls have no voice. You just saved me a few hundred bucks!! BIG HUG!

Did you use to carry your pone in your pocked? Sometimes there is a small peace of dust opening that small switch inside the headphone jack. Maybe you try to get rid of it with compressed air. In some cases the connection between that connector and the main-board is broken. Dismantling is a good idea, but you have to know, what you're doing. The fact that the headphone is working well, is a good sign, that the problem is inside that jack.
In some cases the springs that contact the speaker to the MB are worn or dusty, try to get a better connection.
sound problem in my smartphone hct tytn 2
Helo dear friends

can any one here help me please???
Hi there,
I am having some issue with my O2 Atom Exec external speaker.
When the phone rings:
- I can't hear the ring tone (phone and pda volume settings turned up to high)
When I pick up:
- microphone does not work
- phone speaker does not work
Actually microphone seems to no longer work same with external speaker. I try to play music and no sound comes out externally. When I use the combined stereo headphones and microphone, these work fine. I have tried a hard reset and looking into the Windows registry for some obscure volume settings but this did not resolve the problem.
Anyone else experiencing a similar issue? Please help,
Hi,
You have a problem with the headphone socket. what I would suggest is play a file in media player and put the headphone plug in halfway and gently move it around left to right. You will know when it's fixed because the sound will start coming out of the speakers. This is a known fault that has been around a long time.
Cheers.

Today I faced this problem, I tried to do everything.
Then I did exactly what you said, and this procedure
fixed my speakers. Thank you ,very very much for help.

Hi everyone...
I just pulled out my headphone plug and now I can't hear any sounds over the Prophet's speakers - No ringtones, no system sounds, nothing. Not even the other person when I call someone...
Still works over headphones though...
So what's wrong? Is my headphone jack screwed?
Thanks in advance...
That is a commun problem with this equipment.
The spring on the plub doesnt work right with the time.
One solution is to to plub and unplug several times and then test it if it the the problem has been solved.
Prepare to buy a new headphones plug.
Thanks for the reply... so you're basically saying, there's a mechanical problem with the headphone jack? That's strange, because when I call the phone from a different one the ringer works fine. But when I call someone else from the Prophet, I can't hear a thing...
I think that the problem lies with a little metal pin/pad inside the jack hole on the prophet.
When you put the jack in, it depresses this little pin, and deactivates the speaker, earspeaker and microphone, and transfers that over to the headset. After a bit of usage, it appears that it can get stuck when you remove the jack, disabling the phone's speakers etc.
I find that shaking it/hitting it/ramming the jack in and out, whilst building up frustration, can remove stress. It also can have some effect on the problem.
I'm just waiting it out until my contract ends, and i get a new phone.
EDIT: Ah, and the prophet naturally rings out loud aswell when you have the headset in, so that's why you can hear it.
I had the exact same problem, I sloved it by rotating a pin inside the headphone jack and it is sloved the speaker worked. I inserted the headphone and it work thus i took it off and prophet worked as normal.
wish good luck 4 u

Could be. When you say you hear all sounds but phone calls - I presume you mean all sounds from the rear speaker.
If I understand correctly you have reflashed? If so then you have 99% ruled out a software problem. The earpiece speaker could be damaged or probably just not making a good contact.
Quite often (though not always you can check the contacts by dialling the speaking clock (or similar) and the giving the phone a few short sharp taps (nothing too violent though) and if you hear the sound crackle on and off then it's almost certainly just needing the contacts tweaked. Not a fool-proof way to check but worth a try.
I have seen reports of both damaged speakers and poor contacts, both are reasonably likely. There is an equivalent Motorola speaker that can be used in place of the genuine article if it turns out to be damaged - The genuine one is tricky to get a hold of.
Before dismantling though, check your USB port. Try to be sure there is no damage around it or bent pins inside. Insert and retract a headset/earpiece mini USB. Do you get sound through an earpiece? If you get no sound then it is likely NOT the earpiece speaker that's at fault but the USB port. The port and it's connections must work correctly for sound to be routed to the earpiece speaker. (If you're pretty sure there is no damage there then a repair shop or dismantling is probably the answer)

Then cleaned 2 connectors (picture below) using medical alcohol + Q-Tip/Cotton swabs
I did check Ohms on mini speaker and it was ok, so more less I knew it was bad connection problem.
Thanks for the help... Hopefully this post helps someone as well.. It was simple fix... hmn
