No sound :-(

Hi,
Following on from my phone app problems, my XDA Mini S has now stopped producing sound alltogether!
I believe the problem is that the phone thinks i have the headset plugged in, as i can hear sounds through the suppluied headphones but nothing when they are unplugged - not even during a call.
Please can someone make a suggestion? I have tried soft resetting.
:?:
EDIT: I should point out that i can hear the ringtone when the phone rings through the speaker but absolutely no other sounds - nothing in calls and nothing from the speakers - WMAs etc.

try unplugging and plugging it back in a few times (quite a few in one go)
the headphone "sensor" is usually hardware which picks up when something is physically plugged in .
not sure what else to try
if u have had it less then 30 days then get a replacement next day from o2.
or hard reset ? but backup first!

Hmm,
I just can't work this out. How come the ringtone plays through the speakers? If the phone thought the headset was plugged in would it not just play the ringer through the headset? Can anyone confirm this please?
Stupid phone :-(

Mine did the same, ringtone played OK but could only make calls with the headset plugged in. Thouhgt I was going to have to return it, but ried pushig the jack i alittle further before pulling it out and it all started working OK. I've not had the problme since.

hi guys , i have problem with sound as well , i just unblocked the simlock with lokiwiz02b , and suddenly there was no sound at all , i can call but there is no sound , i tried to play ringtones nothing works , headset is not solution as well , when i tried to run media player message - no hardware device to play sound or device not available , and everytime i open the volume control it's show that it's mutted and i can't scroll it up to make any sound all i can say it seems that system drivers for sound are ****ed up,
anybody have any idea how to solve it? i have still few days to return it but i played with this simlock so i'm afraid they can charge me extra for repair ,

Have you tried a hard reset?

My Charmer, has the opposite problem. My speaker went dead on my suddenly during a phone conversation on speaker phone mode. So, I can't hear any phone rings and stuff, but still able to make calls, with or without the ear phone.
Yes, confirm (for my charmer) that if you have your ear phone in, speaker won't give you any sound. So, don't think it is that earphone plug sensor thing problem.

yes i tried hard reset but everything still the same -no sound at all

No sound on earpiece, microphone ok
Well I tried the suggestions in the forum and still it didn't work. I then thought maybe there's dust and stuff in the workings, blew into the earpiece and it worked.
It's worth a try!
Hope this helps.

Hello to everybody.. I had the same problem for months and last week i gave my wizard to the assistance cause I feded up!
I solve the problem with 70 euros but now it-s better.

aggressive sound out of the speaker

hello guys,
i got a problem, when i hold my phone close to my head, like a call people there's a realy high sound coming out of the inside speaker (over the touch).
It's like tinitus
So is that normal or can i fix it or must i send it in?
hope you got my problem
greetings

Microphone broken?

I just made a phone call and the person on the other end couldn't here me. I've just checked with a friend and they can just about hear me but its gone extremely quiet - it wont hear me when I record now either.
Does anyone have any ideas why this might have happened - what is the likely cause (dust in mic, mic problem or software problem?)
Thanks for any help

...low recording volume? Did you check for mic volume and set it all the way up?

Thanks for getting back to me -
Is there a mic volume setting? I dont know where to find it if there is? (Im using the orange rom - maybe I need to do it in the registry - if so do you know where)
All I can find is the microphone AGC- when I set that it comes a bit louder but not much - I've been checking it via phoning my land line and via recording memos
thanks again

I just tried it with my hands free headset and it works fine so I think that means it must be a physical problem. I keep it in my pocket all the time so its probably got some fluff in it or something -
does that sound right?

anyone? Im thinking of taking it to bits as I dont seem to have any other options -
unless there is a mic volume control that I dont know about

OK there was nothing obviously wrong with it, so some component must have gone, has anyone done a repair themselves or should i send it somewhere and if so where (in the UK)
all replies appreciated

[Solved] Handsfree and waiting through Loud Speaker!

Ok XDA, i have one big/huge/enormous problem,
Scenario:
Talking on the phone, using the Wired Handsfree (which came with the phone), when i get another call (call waiting) the notification of the other call is going through the loud speaker! not only that, the ongoing is immediately routed the loud speaker, anyone near me can hear the conversation clearly!!!!!!
does anyone face this?
i checked it on 2 X1s, 1 black & 1 silver and it's there.
anyway to solve this

same problem for me

I have a similar problem with a Parrok CK3100. The phone can't ever seem to decide for sure what speakers it's supposed to be using.
Sometimes I'll press the Voice Command button on the bluetooth device and the phone speaks out, sometimes the car speakers speak out.
I just don't know.
Annoying that the much, much cheaper E71-2 handles all of this with great aplomb, as did my Q9h.

any one else facing this problem people?
i started searching in order to get a clue,
the main thing i'm thinking is that it's caused the same way VOIP (including skype) used to behave using speaker phone!
what do you think?

I have the same problem with a german x1. ROM R2A.
Is there any solution for this problem
thx
walk

Fixed
Bugs Fixes (Registry):
Sound is routed to the Loud Speaker when having a phone call and get a waiting call while using Handsfree
change the key HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring\Speaker to 0 (default value = 1).
added to the wiki of X1

Thanks. I've changed that setting to see if it solves my problem, too.

[Q] Can't hear people during calls

Hi, I just bought a new samsung galaxy s5, my problem is that when i call, they can hear me but I can't hear them through ear speaker, while i can hear through back speaker and headphones...can someone help me solve my problem? thank u for your help!

May be the ear speaker has physical problem. As you just bought it, you need to return it to the shop.
Firstly try to reboot to see if the problem still persists.
