I have an odd problem and I'm hoping this can be fixed without sending my phone back.
I have an 8125 that's been working great since I bought it. Suddenly the other day the internal speaker stopped working.
So my phone doesn't ring and I can't hear when someone calls. But if I use the headset that came with the phone, everything works fine - including the internal speaker! (someone called the other day and I had the headphones connected and my external speaker started to ring when the call came in.)
Any ideas on getting the speaker working again?
Thanks

The phone speaker on my Qtek was working fine when I put it on my charger last night. I went to use it today and now it doesnt work anymore. Checked the volume, thats fine. Speaker phone works fine. audio comes through on a blutooth headset.
I'm sure i didn't install anything since the last time it worked. I did delete some stuff out of the registry yesterday. Pretty sure it was before the speaker stopped working. I was just getting rid of some crap that uninstalled programs and only deleted stuff out of HKCU/Software and HKLM/Software.
What could have caused this? A speaker can't just die while sitting there. Does anyone the regkeys that control the speaker so i could check and make sure they're not messed up?
So, my phone stopped working a few days ago. I've been running WM6 for quite some time now and I've even tried going back to Tmobile's ROM. Basically, when I receive/make a phone call, I can ONLY hear the person if I put them on speaker. They can hear me regardless, but I can't hear them. Pretty annoying.
Any ideas?
Heh! Quite a coincidence!!! I cannot hear anything from the headset either and it happened a short while after I upgraded to XDA6. It work fine with the stereo headset as well as with a BT one. The difference in my case is that I cannot switch to speakerphone. The phone is deaf without a hands-free device.
I have posted a separate thread on my problem - here it is
i have the same problem. phone is dead without a handsfree it happened to me last night all was good, i was listening to music to handsfree and removed them to make a call and it didnt work anymore..i reinstalled the rom, but no sound..any help anyone?
maybe the phone is stuck on handsfree..it things that the handsfree is plugged in or something?
problem solved trustworthy, i've put the jack in and out a few times..and now the sound works there is a switch that is pressed when you plug in the jack and maybe it got stuck on handsfree..try pressing it a few times..i don't know. now my phone works. i'll never plug in a handsfree again
I had the same problem--it was still under warranty...new MDA was the solution.
By the time it goes again I hope the next generation will be here!
I have the same problem as lilcam, the earspeaker is dead. I had the same problem once, and the service chage the speaker, first and the ringer, later and stars working just fine. Now, the silent speaker hits again and service says is not the same problem and they cant repar it. Does anybody have a clue?

Thanks for the hint, but I REPLACED the handfree jack and it still wouldn't work without the headset
The people, who got it serviced told me that there was a problem with the mmainboard, that they cannot deal with. As I've mentioned in my thread, they also told me that a faulty handsfree jack was a frequently occurring problem with the 9100. I would recommend to pdebeitia and Sisqo to try replacing the jack. Hopefully it might help...it did not work for me though...
BTW, pdebeitia and Sisqo, what ROM are your MDA's running or were runnig at the time when it happened?
Hello all
I have big problem with my himalaya. When someone calling to me or I calling to someone i can't hear anything and he can't hear me. But I can hear ring tone, mp3. I can hear someone and he can hear me when I connect my XDA 2 to computer.
What i can do with That??
the problem is with the connector.few Pins are broken or are touching each ither...which causes the Hima to go into Car Mode..try connecting a Headphone and see if it works or not..else get your Connector replaced
no audio
If the above doesn't work, this could be a problem, which after a LOT of research I don't believe there has been a fix found for. Essentially , my problem and a problem my mate had was that the audio on the phone was working FINE, MP3, ringtone etc... but upon answering or calling, there was no IN CALL sound. it WORKED with a headset, but no amount of fiddling with the jack sorted it out. THe LOUDSPEAKER also would NOT work.
Having a few donar phones lying about, I just put a new board into the phone and forgot about the problemed one for a week or so, left it laying in my drawer. Tried it in the phone after waiting this time, and it worked FINE.... the problem had rectified itself.
I know this isn't necessarily helpful, but perhaps leaving the phone in a dry warm place ? could be moisture..?
hope this helps.

well, it happend with me yesterday, just took the Batt. out ( 30 second), put it back, reset the device, and all will be OK,....its a software feature AND NOT A BUG... beleave it or NOT....

Hi all,
yesterday, the following parts of my Uni stopped working properly:
- speakers
- phone speaker
- microphone
Not only was there no sound at all coming from the speakers, but when I made a phone call, I couldn't hear the other person and neither did they hear me. The phone was thus rendered pretty much useless. I didn't try it when making calls, but when I turned on music, it played without problems when I plugged in the headphones.
Reseting didn't help so I reflashed the unit.
Everything was fine wor a while, but then the problem occured again.
This time, reseting the device solves the problem, but only for a few minutes - then the sound stops working again. EDIT: oh and now I also discovered that it starts working again at some times for no obvious reason and goes back to not working in a short while *CONFUSED*
Does anyone have an idea what it could be caused by and how to solve it? Many thanks!
I had a similar problem earlier.Try putting ur headphone jack in and out a few times,this generally sorts out the problem.It has to do with a small pin in the headphone socket which diverts the sound to the headset when it is plugged in and the pin has to come back in position when the headset is disconnected.What happens is that the pin gets stuck,so even when u disconnect the headset,it still diverts the sound to headset mode.PM me for more details

try it with bluetooth, if all sounds work fine, then problem is with the receptacle for the headset jack.
Had this problem myself. Took phone apart and repaired.

Thanks, I guess the problem really was in the headset/external switch. It acted like crazy, switching back and forth for no reason, but when I tapped the headphone jack hard with my finger, it usually got ok.
And for the past few hours, the sound worked perfectly, so it hopefully is ok again now. If the problem comes back, I guess I will take it to the service center and get it repaired - I don't think I'd have the courage to do it myself
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help guys.
after 6 months of this phone working perfectly, i all of a sudden lost my speakerphone. i was listening to a audiobook when it just cut out. i figured just a bug so i reset the phone and still... nothing. i use an app called super mono that sends the speakerphone to the bluetooth headset so i uninstalled and restarted again... nothing. i ended up installing a new version of virtuous and still no sound. at this point i figured it was my speaker as i didnt install the app and still getting nothing. then my phone rings, and the speaker works just fine. after that no sound again. installed CM7 and still no luck. i can make calls as the headset works, but i cant hear any calls ringing. can someone help me troubleshoot this or am i better off replacing the speaker? ty beforehand
