on a I-mate jam it's possible to turn on speaker while calling so you can speak "handsfree".
This can be done by holding down the green call button.
When I do this the sounds of the speaker is de same as normal only the sounds comes from the back of the phone instead of the front.
Does anybody know how to fix this? A friend of mine has the same phone without a problem.

Have you tried while you are on the speakerphone mode to make the volume slider higher?
That ain't gonna help you. This is a known - and unsolved problem with the Jam. If you really need a speakerphone, you should return the phone. No amount of firmware/ROM update will help you.
I use the speakerphone option without any problems. The sound is loud and clear. What is this unresolved JAM problem that you're talking about?
Jam speakerphone volume problem
My XDA1 had the best speakerphone I've ever used, including corded phones. I could be in a conferance room with 10 people around the table and everyone could hear, speak and the participate on the phone never had problems with background noise. I have a hard time accepting that next generation technology from the same manufacturer should be woefully inadequate. The unit is advertised as a speakerphone, the solution is to return my phone and purchase another? No thanks friend, anyone reading this with solutions please respond.
I only have the phone for 1 month now so I´ll return it
tnx for the help
I think most of us don't know how to hold the mini in the right way, while the phone is in speaker mode...
if u want to hear a load voice.. make sure that back of the phone faces ur ear..
that' because the mini has 2 speakers... and the one in the back( near the mirror) is loader.. so you will hear the conversation very well...
and BTY.. I suggest u upgrade to the latest ROM available for ur device..
it helped me a lot....
cheers

Wrong - its patently obvious that the sound is coming from from the back speaker. Why on earth it comes frm the back is another question entirely, given that the speaker phone is supposed to free up your hands so you do other things, including multi-task on the device i.e looking at the screen! Every other phone I've had has a decent speakerphone - and they face the front too.
But the main problem is that the volume from the supposed "speakerphone" is too damn low, irregardless of location.
Considering all the huge volumes of prior experience that HTC has (making practically every Microsoft PPC device, smartphones, plus the Palm Treo phone), things like this awful speakerphone on the magician are really not excusable at all.
I went through 3 TREO 600s due to speaker problems. You could barely hear the speaker phone on the 600 either. ANd to top that off, no one could hear you! The JAM is nice, but the more that I use it, the more I wish that either I bought something else or that the the JAM could just work the way it was designed!!!!!!
1.3 Mega pixel camera... my ass! It's the same quality as my first Casio digital camera from '96. Not mention the fact that Imate can't even put a decent ROM update together.
Perhaps we should build our own PPC's!
P.S. PM me if you want the CEO and VP of Imate's e-mail address. I e-mailed them and they actually wrote back! -Of course they weren't very helpful though. :evil:
One time, I turned on this speakermode operation on my MDA-Compact, I could hear my phonecall loud and clear from the built-in speaker.... This happenend accidently, probably by pressing just the right button, but I wasn't aware....
I cannot find how to do this again? How can I get the MDA-Compact to operate in speakermode using the built-in speaker?
I'm searching this (and other forums) quite a while now, but I cannot find my solution?!
Any help will be very much appreciated!
Thanks,
Igor.

To turn on the speakerphone part press the Green call button whilst in the call for 5 secs or so.....
I updated my Jam and now it's all ok
Hi guys. i been playing my new dopod 838 alot. love it heaps. thou its becoming slow atm for sum reason. needs to hard reset later. anyway i was wondering. any of the software developer here keen to try to make it possible for wizard to answer the phone by sliding out the keyboard and maybe the option of ending it as well by sliding the keyboard in? and top of this the ability to answer it automatically using speakerfone when using the slide method? just a thought since slider phones have this feature. some might think is dumb idea while i for one would like such a feature. i didnt believe anyone havent thought of the idea yet. thanks anyways guys. this forum rocks!!
I don't want to come over as negative and whatnot...but thats not really the best idea....in my view anyways.
When my keyboard is out, the last place i want to put the phone is next to my ear. If i wanted someting that big to talk into, i would of bought the Universal !
thats where the speakerphone comes in. say when u are doing something else and not practical to turn on ur bluetooth headset you can just slide the keyboard out and the phone is answered with the speakerphone on. seeing that our wizard have good speakerphone we can make conversation this way.
anyone? is there any registry entry that signals the landscape change when you slide the keyboard out?
Basically only just got my SPV M600 yesterday, been faffing with it etc, and now ive lost all sound, have no idea why its not playing music etc, as all the sound levels are turned up.
Is there something im doing wrong? Secret silent button? lol
Cheers

just to warn you - you will loose all your information on the device - so take precautions, synchronize with PC... The hard reset is performed the following way - Press and hold the Camera and the CommManager buttons and in the same time reset the device with the stylus. Do not release the Camera and the CommManager button until you see a text asking you to format the FAT. Then press send and you are ready...
so that means ill even loose operating system? how would i go about putting it back on?
Jeez i sound like such a useless bugger, i build pc's for part of my living lol
All this mobile stuff is new to me though.
Thanks
EDIT :
just done hard reset, and its still got no sound
Col
well well, just upgraded to wm6, and still no sound, also, speakerphone in calls doesnt work, i get no ringtone, this is pissing me off lol
I just want my sound back lol
Col
heeelllpp
someone must have an answer lol
Col
ok, just found a 2.5 TO 3.5 JACK THINGY for sale at maplins, will go tmoro and then try headphones on it if that fails then i have no idea what steps to take next
Colin
does it have sound when u plugin ur headset? do you always plugin ur headset to the phone? i maybe think there's something wrong with the headset jack or slot, either short circuit or whatever, i am not sure as i am no expert.
last time my neo also like that..u can try and put the headset back in again, then try to remove it again, but maybe slowly. try a few times and i think it will be ok. from that that time onwards, i never use the headset...bought a bluetooth headset.
it worked fine last nite, and ive never used a headset. thats why im gonna buy a 2.5 jack to try some headphones tommorow, see if i get sound from them. ah well, have it less than a day and it breaks lol
Cheers
Colin
FIXED
was the red wire on speaker lol
w000t
Col
How did you fix that ?
My S200 have the same problem , i have a paper up the speaker on the red wire, but sometimes it rings,and sometimes not.
What is your trick ?
Check out this thread, it may help...

This post is for the Magician, but it may help with your prophet too.
Also, there was talk about a software bug that caused problems like this. The solution was to:
Call voicemail (or somewhere that you KNOW is generating sound)
Plug in your Headset, listen for sound...
Unplug the headset.
I dont know if that was the exact solution. The above post has a link to other posts, as well.

i think your speaker is out. same problem as mine, tried the 'sponge' method & worked for a while, think mine needs to be replaced. prophet speakers tend to have a lot of problems from what i gather...
try searching in the prophet forum for 'speaker' u can find the thread that i'm talking about.
hi everyone,
i have a question, but first let me explain my problem. both my wife and i are on the t-mo network. i have the wing and she has some sort of new moto w490. whenever we talk i have to hold my phone three inches from my head due to the loudness of her voice. i have the volume all the way down, but that doesn't help. this is only the case when talking to her. so, is there any solution to this on my end?
thanks in advance
oh, and i have already asked her to talk softer, but that doesn't work

ILL CHECK TO SEE IF THE SPEAKER IS ON REASON IS IF YOU HOLD THE TALK BUTTON TO ANSWER IT AUTOMATICALLY PUTS TH E SPEAKER PHONE ON
TRY USEING THE SOFT KEYS TO ANSWER
no speaker here
I'm not using the speaker, just the regular phone to the ear for me. also if i'm understanding you correctly, i use the softkey to answer. ultimately i would like my volume to go lower than it is. this way i can just lower her on my end. do you know of any tweaks that decrease the lowest level w/o decreasing the highest level?
there is a reg tweak i dont remember where it is i think it is in "all you need on your wing" but check there it might be albe to answer your question
sounds good (get it?)
great! i'll check for it and post my discovery's.
thanks a bunch
No Problem
nothing there
well i looked around but didn't see anything in the "all you need" thread. oh well.
Not as simple as the headline. Anyway, I have a SMS tone that lasts for about 15-20 seconds (can't make it shorter, it's chorus of a song) and the thing is that when I hear a message has arrived, I take the phone out of my pocket, but I cannot make it shut up! The melody keeps playing even if I have read the SMS until it's all played. I tried pressing every single button, no results. The only thing that worked was pressing the volume key and pressing the silent button, but that feels kinda stupid. On my old HTC Touch HD i only had to press the hangup button and it would stop ringing. Some help would be most appreciated...
Why don't you cut it with an audio-editor to the needed lenght???
Read a little more careful
It's a chorus of a song very dear to me, I don't want to make it shorter, i wrote that in my post. I want to turn the sound off in the middle of it, not make the melody shorter. If you're going to answer anything, read the post first and make sure that you understand it before giving an idea...
Here's an idea, try being a little courteous to someone who has taken the time to try and assist you.
May help you to get an eventual solution!
Just say you don't know
I was courteous, but I didn't see any help. Maybe I spelled something wrong. I said that I DON'T want to cut the melody and the advice is: use an audio editor to make it shorter. Gee, why didn't I think of that? I hope you don't make it your business looking around and commenting people are rude without offering any actual thoughts on the problem. I created this thread to get help, not a lesson from you. So, either help me in a constructive way or don't try to help anymore.
question has been covered before and the answer is you can't. (well no one has figured it out yet, at any rate)
Thank you
Not the answer I was hoping for, but thanks. Now at least I know where I stand. Hope someone will make it happen soon...
