Hello all,
since yesterday I have a serious problem with my Ameo.
When making a phone call or running media player there is no sound through the loudspeakers, even testing ring-tone or alarm sound is not working.
However, when a phone call comes in, I get the ringtone through the loadspeakers.
Tried soft and hard reset - both ot making anything better.
What can I do ?
Thanks for your help
Dieter
Now I discovered something strange:
After making a hard-reset, I get for about 1 second sound through the speakers.
Also after re-flashing the ROM I get for about a second somethin through the speakers.
Anybody an idea ?
Dieter
hi
have you used the headphones bevore the sound was gone? there are serval isues on htc devices that after unpluging the headphones one of the contacts inside the headphonejack of the device is not switching back to its normal position so the athena still thinks that the headphones are connected and is sending all output to theme. i had these also one time on my universal.
greetings mad
Hello mad,
thanks for the information. Putting in and out the jack twice got it running again.
Thanks so far.

Hi,
Was driving home yesterday when I noticed my Tom Tom voice instructions started to break up. I thought it was just a little glitch and thought nothing move about it.
However today I was trying to play a sound and got nothing. I tried it a couple of times and it played and then started to break up too.
Since then I am getting no sound. I can hear sound fine using the headphones and when I get a call I can hear the caller fine, but if I go onto Speaker Phone I hear nothing.
I tried a soft reset then a hard reset but neither worked.
I have just finished upgrading to the latest ROM but it is still not working.
Has anyone else had this? Is there a secret fix I have missed?
Has anyone sent their JAMin for warrantly work in the UK. If so how long is the turnaround?
Regards
Hi. Used to have this problem when I had the Jam and the JAMin seems to use the same design when it comes to speakers (part of the reason why I didn't get a JAMin when upgrading.)
If it's the same problem as on the Jam hopefully the fllowing will help.
When you plug in headphones or speakers to the socket there is a loose connection. This then sometimes makes the phone think headphones are still plugged in even when they are not! The way I solved it was by playing some music on media player then half plugging the headphones in and wiggling the connector around until I heard sound through the speakers. I also found I could use the tip of the stylus to correct the loose connection. Some people said it worked just by plugging and unplugging their headphones several times.
This thread is where the problem was discussed when on the JAM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=42949

dead speaker
If after a hard reset your speaker still has no sound, then it's probably dead. Sad to say, HTC is at fault for using such low quality speakers. I am a victim myself. Go to PPCSG. The prob is so common in Singapore that the service center has run out of speaker parts!
Speaker hardware replaced
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=50392
read somewhere that this speaker problem was inherited from the magician?
can anyone verify that this speaker failing problem was inherent even in the magician?
if this is the case, then we will have doubts about PPCs coming out from HTC..
I heard about the Magician PDA speaker defects as well although I did not have such a problem with my old Magician but I had to get the Phone speaker replaced. It looks like they used the same Magician hardware in the new Prophet.
hi i have a spv m5000 (htc universal) with jcwrights 2.02.02 rom is was working today worning but in the afternoon the sound does not come, when i use headphones it works perfectly i havent dropped the phone or nothing could someone please help thanks
Plug in and plug out the earphones several times to re-route the sound to speakers.
PS: play some song on WMP so that ASA sound comes from the device to make yourself aware that the things are back to normal

It's your headphone jack
Theres a problem wit hyour headphone jack, i think the bit inside that works out if there are headphones in the device or noot has got stuck to thinking there are always headphones in the slot.
The solution to this is to put the headphones in and out til lyou get sound back, maybe do a soft reset. I dunno I started to get it on my last uni but i had that replaced due to scren failing.
i have no idea?, i put it in and out maybe 100 time it still doesnt work please help me please will pay donation to the soloution which works! please
hello, i have sent it for htc repairs hopefully some result has anybody ever sent it for repairs
hi samzurai,
I have exactly the same problem as you. did you manage to solve it somehow?
I had same problem solved it this way.
when sound does not start put stylus in the headfone jack turn it a bit and take it out
that should get your sound again

Same thing happened to me...listened to WMP through headphones...take the headphones out & NO SOUND!!! I could put the headphones back in and hear sound, but NO sound on the phone or sound from WMP w/o the headphones. I G-E-N-T-L-Y moved the 2.5 jack in and out of the audio jack and the sound almost instantly came back...repeat as necessary!
Hi everybody,
my wizard (with faria crossbow) is suddenly acting strange:
I plugged in my headset and listened to some music with media player, while i stopped listening received a call..
I've plugged out the headset but.... there's no sound coming out of the phone any more! Sound is only working through the headset... any help??
(I've tried adjusting the volume, resetting etc... without success!)
Could be mechanical damage to the headphones jack.
Try fixing it by putting a match there to unlock it.
sorry but what do you mean with: "by putting a match there to unlock it" ?
Try inserting and removing the headphone jack a few times, perhaps the contacts area bit bent and are shorting out.
well i've tried that.. doesn't work..
well suddenly after removing en inserting the jack a phew time the sound is working again... really strange but thx everbody
okeay this is really some mechinal flaw.. but its really annoying!!
While im calling and talking through the normal mic sometimes sound+mic stops working (and so the phone thinks theres a headset plugged in).
I know there is something inside the headphone jack that is not working correctly but I don't know what..
Is there a way to open the phone and fix this problem?
These things are great ! Dropped it on its head more than a few times and it still works !! Thanks to the xda-developer community for saving me having to get a new one !!
it was the headphones ;}
Hello,
sound is gone on my S200. Yesterday it all worked just fine, I was listening to some music on the headphones, and this morning I tried to call my gf, and noticed that I have no sound on the device.
The phone rings when somebody is calling me, so I assume its not the speaker, at least not the one on the back.
I can't hear a thing when I call somebody and microphone doesn't seem to be working either. I haven't dropped the phone recently.
Music is only playing via the headphones, same for calls.
Any ideas? I took the back cover off and took a look at the speaker, it seems to be fine, and as I mentioned it rings when somebody calls me.
Could this be a ROM issue? Using WM 6.5

It seems its the stuck headphone socket, I managed to get it working again somehow, but I guess it needs replacing. Any ideas where could I get the whole socket for replacement?

Hey I am having the same problem with the headphone jack.
My phone still "thinks" the headphone is plugged in even when it itsent,
so it plays notifications through the rear speaker but it wont play music and the phones mic and speaker dont work while calling.

Try connecting your headphones again and pull them out slowly, while gently applying pressure(as in bending) and rotating it. That did it for me, works fine for now.
Hi guys,
I have Tmobile HD2 and it's on stock radio 2.08. I flash nrg rom 04/23 6.5.x and everything was working fine. Today I just changed the rom to 4/23 6.5 and now my speaker don't make any sounds. Everything play fine through headphone but not from speaker. I play music, movies, ringtones nothing works. No sounds. I just did task29 and flashed to 2 other different roms and still no sounds. What happened to my phone? Is the speaker gone for good? I only had this phone for a week. Any helps is appreciated.
I've had a similar issue in past phones, where after removing audio jack the phone still thinks it is plugged in and even a hardreset didnt fix it. Try to remove and insert the audio jack rapidly in succession, its worth a try. Good luck.
Regards

I don't think it's rom related. I try nrg, miri, stock and cell. none works.
I had the same issue. I think thats happen after i use earfone.
Do you solve this problem?
thx
I had the same issue. The easiest way to tell if it is the same issue is to look to see if you have the headset icon in the bar when you dont have any connected. I solved this by (not suggesting you do it unless you are sure) there is a pressure prong on the top of the 3.5 jack. I used a tool to bend it down a little. If you still can I would swap it out for a new one.
i have the same issuse, and i've tried 2 rom until now.
in a call, if i press speaker, i can hear everything.
if i'm using mediaplayer, tcmp, youtube client, i get no sound.
even if i try to change the ringtone, i cannot hear when it plays for demo.
but if i plug in my headphones, everything works prefect, i can hear.
i have no headphones icon in the upper part of the display (so that the phone thinks i didn't get the jack out).
any ideea would be really appreciated.
Hi all,
i bought unbranded/unlocked HD2 on 5-6-2010 and played alots with it - so i didn't really noticed a serious speaker problem.
Within the first week i wondered about the fact that i sometimes couldn't hear the callers voice. I had this effect even when i called somebody. I thought about a software error - so i flashed to the latest german stock ROM.
But it didn't fixed the problem. I was only able to hear somebody, when i used the internal speaker or the headset.
One day i got a call and i "accidentally" pressed the phone speaker a bit harder than usual to my ear and the voice came and left - (ear)speaker defect.
I informed the dealer about this defect and i got a new HD2.
He told me, it would be the ninth HD2 with this particular defect since January 2010.
Please check your speaker for a defective contact - maybe it hits you too.
Good luck,
Stephan
mine was a software problem.
i have elegancia 8.5 now and it works, i can hear youtube, fm radio on the speaker.
the other thing that bothers me is that the sound i hear in a call is too low.
i don't know if it's a radio problem.
ah, btw, i can't use the volume hardware buttons, they are broke from a down fall, and i can't seem to find how to change in a call volume from windows.
I also hat that prob. The funny solution: Audio was set to silent in windows media player. After turning up the volume the problem was gone. I had this problem only one times. Strange thing...
I have the same problem with my hd2 now and still couldnt fix it.I have htc2 for 2-3 months, didnt have this kind of problem, no sound from the phone without earphones.can it be solved with any sound driver or sth like that, I tried hard reset, flashing, orginal rom, downloaded previous working rom, no solution.Appreciate if you could give some advices.thanks

??? help pls ???
My speaker stopped working last night. Had been working fine for the last few weeks.
Haven't installed anything or done anything different in the last few days.
Have only recently got my phone set up as I want it, so I'm loathe to do a factory reset. Read on another forum that HTC are aware of this and that 65% of HD2 owners suffer with is - not sure how true this is though.
If it's a hardware issue, is it easy to replace the speaker? If so, is it easy to order one?
Thanks
SC
I have the same problem! I have try like for ROM already and no solution i even uninstall HSPL to see if anything happened but not luck so far. can any expert or someone who have already solved this problem post a solution or something PLEASE i getting worried or i mean i am already!!
THANKS!
fixed It!! speaker Problem!HD2
well is was pretty simple! all i did was i put speaker volume on muted and with the earphone start to plug in and and out the jack several times while i was playing a video on windows media after that i unplug it and set the speaker volume up and hit play!!! speaker on!!!!
Just had the no sound from speaker problem, I always use my bluetooth motorokr s9-hd headset but i didnt feel like charging it so i used my sony earbuds with the 3.5 jack for the first time and it caused the no sound from speaker issue......I plugged the earbuds back in, played with the volume buttons on the phone and the speaker is back on
