verizon XV6700 speaker dead. - XV6700, PPC-6700 General

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had a source for a new speaker for a 6700. I was listening to internet radio one day and it stopped playing all of a sudden, apparently, it burned up the speaker because it hasn't worked since. Any ideas?

need one too
if u find a source for one pm me please

I have one from a scrapped xv6700
pm me if interested and I can list it on ebay @$10 - I'm in the UK though so shipping might be too much. Won't list it if no-one wants it.
M.S

Same thing
happened to me... speaker rang one day, then quit. i called verizon and they sent me a new one. sent the old one back. backup the data, then reflash back to your carriers original rom.

Ppc 6700 No Sound
I Am Having The Same Prob I Dont Think Its Your Speaker Mine Is Doing The Same But If I Give It A Slap It Works For A Wile And Stops Again

Speaker
To the poster above - dont hit the phone, if its a short you will just help break the already fragile wire, you might still be able to repair by soldering a new dab of solder on the speaker connector.
There is also a software bug, I first noticed after installing Skyfire, sometimes
you can glitch the audio to work again by playing around with various audio programs or doing a soft/hard reset.
It is most likely related to the drivers not being as up to date as the diamond/mogul etc...
Now if someone can figure out what the problem is and come up with a hotfix,
that would be super.
Is there a debugger that shows hardware calls we can look and try to isolate this problem?
For those having an actual hardware problem, I will post the URL of a chinese aftermarket supplier here in a few days, I have heard one exists.

Speaker not working

hi guys..
I was watching a video clip and suddenly I see I can't hear any audio from it. I was surprised.. I tried to soft reset it couple of times... but with no luck... I couldn't here any tap sound or even when the phone rings.. nothing sounds.. and finally I did hard reset... but in despair.. still the same problem. but when I try to shake my jam. I could feel something moving.. i don't know if any bit/piece is disconnected.. when i try to tap it hard at the speaker.. i could hear to the music and after few seconds.. its stops.. again..
Has anyone come across such a problem.. I think probably my speaker needs to replaced.. any suggestions or solutions to this..
I would await for ur replies.
kindly advise..
thanks
Iffu
i have the same problem to. Please Help!
This is a "common" problem with the Magician. Mine had it as well. I sent it for repair since it's still under warranty. Some ppl had the guts to open it and fix the loose contact themselves. So if you're not a techie just take it to your service centre for repair :-(
No sound?
Hi. i had a similar problem some days ago. no sound at all from my magician. i've discovered that the problem was that my magician thought i had headphones conected. a simple insert of a headphone jack and removal brought my sound back to live. No problems since than.
Just a gentle few bangs did the trick
After reading several suggestions and info about the speaker problem, I tested my 02 mini with a song. It played ok through the speaker. So the speaker works, but appears to not "Switch" on when being used as a phone. Anyway long story short - I hit the corner of it into the palm of my hand a few times and da da it works again. I also blew through the speaker hole. Someone mentioned that somewhere as well. Hitting into my hand seemed to provide enough impact without creating any damage.
Had same problem too, and sent it away for repair. Three weeks later and the repair company are sending me a replacement this week as apparently they were unable to fix it!
Fault appeared without any warning and I had been using the phone pretty heavily all day. All I hope is that the replacement will have a newer ROM installed to save my ineptness from screwing up an upgrade.
This Jam is a peice of shi#e. I bought one in February, had various problems with both speakers - regular earpiece was unclear and speaker phone was just too damn low in volume.
Some people claimed this was an exception, or that it was the ROM or whatever. Right......
Finally sent the Jam back for warranty repair in May- there were many other defects with the phone that accumulated. I had bought insurance as well so I told them to just replace it. The seller admitted that this (audio/speaker is a common problem in this phone)
I just got the insurance replacement today - yep ages later. This one has firmware 1.11 WWE.
Guess what: the speakerphone on this one (brand new replacement) doesn't work - at all. Not at all. This is brand new, out of thebox. Incredible....
What is worse is that I am going on a month-long trip in a couple of days, so there is no way I can get another one - and by the looks of it, even if I got a replacement, the chances are that it too is a piece of ****#e without a functional speakerphone. This I-mate Jam (or whatever the 50 name sit goes by) is just a low quality piece of garbage.
HTC/I-Mate is garbage company. There is no chance in hell I will be buying any future Jam or I-mate phone.

XDA Atom thinks earhones are plugged in

My Atom thinks the earphones are plugged in when they aren't.
If I answer the phone, no sound, presumably because it thinks the earphones are plugged in and is trying to use those.
Activating the start menu or media player has no sound.
The FM Radio starts (which will only happen if it thinks the earphones are plugged in).
But they are not plugged in.
I am currently on ROM 20060426B1WWE.
The same thing happened on ROM 20060105B1WWE, the first ROM I upgraded to.
I know what you're going to say, that there is a hardware fault, either with the earphone connector or the speakers simply don't work.
Firstly, the speakers do still work. If I start the FM radio and set the little button at bottom left to use the speakers as well, they work.
As for the earphone connector, when I had the problem on the 0105B1 ROM, I could fix the problem by performing a hard reset. Sadly this doesn't fix the problem with the latest ROM, but I'm pretty sure that a hard reset doesn't fully reset the device's configuration.
So I'm pretty sure this is not a hardware issue. I think the OS keeps track of whether the earphones are plugged in, and this has got out of sync somehow.
The last time it happened, I did the following:
While I was playing an mp3 and listening with the earphones, I pulled out the connector and the speakers did not start to play as I think they should have. Now, as I said above, it thinks the earphones are connected all of the time.
Anyone seen anything similar, or have an idea of what I can do? I rang O2 and while they admit it is probably a s/w problem, they want me to send the Atom to them. I don't want to be without it for a week or so because it is my phone and I rely on it. So I thought I'd try here.
Thanks,
invisible earphone...
Hey Peter
I've got the exact same issue once...
But the problem i found for mine was that SOMEHOW when I plug out the headset jack, the slightly retarded Atom thinks I have not..
Just plug in the headset again and pull it out slowly... Then try out the phone if its back to normal...
It seems that the Atom is slow in picking up the disconnected headset...
Hope it works for you as it did for me...
Good Luck
Invisible earphones
Hi bulletproof_78,
Thanks a lot for the reply.
I have just tried it and no luck. I pulled the earphones out very slowly.
I think this is one of the biggest problems with any style of MS Windows. They want to cache everything for the sake of performance, and the cache gets out of sync with the thing it's caching. In this case I bet it tries to keep track of the earphone state internally. But if it misses an event like unplugging them, the internal state is different from the thing it is trying to cache.
Anyway, down off the soapbox.
I'll keep in mind what you said, and try it a few times over the next few days.
I might end up having to send it to O2 (all the way up to @#$%^! Queensland) so they can lose it, or replace it with some questionable one that they haven't fixed properly, or god knows what else.
Anyway, thanks again.
Atom thinks earphones plugged in
For anyone listening out there, the problem has gone away.
I don't really know why.
The only thing I did out of the usual was to turn Bluetooth on. The timing was perfect for me to think that this is what must have fixed the problem.
Do you think that might have fixed it? No I don't either.
And I'm reluctant to try to get it back into that state to see if this fixes it because I'm not that confident that this has fixed it.
I sure hope someone else has this problem and O2 or Microsoft hear about it.
I had the exact same problem you did. I fixed mine by very gently running a paperclip around the inside of the audio jack. Problem Solved!!!

hi guys i faced the same problem last week and i had to get it reparied from the repair shop and they informed me that the jack it not working properly and they will replace it with other jack which is used in sonyerricson cell phones as it is the same. I have got it done and now i have no problem.
Please try this method at the last.
Thanks Novice Boy
i tried the paper clip idea and it worked.
About 5mm inside the earphone jack, on the side closest to the USB port, you can feel a small 'bump' (lets call it the g-spot!) as you run over it with the paper clip. Do this with an MP3 playing or something and voila.....the music comes out of the speaker again and the phone rings, i can talk to people again. Seems there is a fault in recognising whether the earpiece is plugged in or out as many have suggested.

Even a tooth pick would do :shock: Have not been using my FM radio but decided to try and got this problem! Was carful not to "short" anything inside so used a toothpick and it worked :lol:
Hi, mine is doing exactly the same thing and did intermittently for a while. Now I cannot get phone audio at all! I have even tried flashing the ROM and still nothing. Works perfectly with portable hands free. Do you think the audio plug is shot? Thanks.
awesome!!!
the paper clip trick really work!!! thanks Novice boy !!
I had this problem too, thanks to you guys and now its fixed.
Worked for me too..
Ok...This toothpic thing really works..
But I cant believe that after paying so much...I am encountering problems like these..
Anyone has any idea if the problem is solved for good or now we need to carry a toothpic too with a stylus...
Even mine problem got resolved automatically. I faced it 2 weeks back.
I tried re inserting the Headphone slowly and removingit and everything came back to normal
hey ive also had this problem...the only thing is that my phone doesnt think it has the headset plugged in because when i open the FM radio it says insert headset...it works when the headset is in and when its on speaker phone but other than that i cannot hear the person...i dropped my phone and this happened....i tried all the methods mentioned but its not fixing the problem...im guessing it could be hardware but the speaker and everything still works except for when your in a call...any ideas?
same prob due to wrong adaptor
i have the same problem. it's like the earphone jack is stuck because the fm radio works even without the earphones. sometimes this registry setting works sometimes it does not let me know if it works for you/anybody...
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

even i had this problem in my atom exec a few weeks back sorry i saw this now and for a pemanent solution for it is dont put anything inside just apply very little coconut oil on the handsfree connecter and then connect it to ur phone and keep removing and reinserting it for a couple of times and it will work for sure this happens due to dust or some particles getting stuck between those connectors not allowing the mechanism to work correctly hope it helps beacuse toothpick trick works fine but its temp and reoccur

I have the same problem and was very sad until trying the toothpic trick, even thought If I hit my pocket the problem returns, so I will try your recomendation, thanks!
Is there a hardware repair procedure, so maybe this part can be removed and replaced?
Yes it is a hardware problem. The headphone socket is faulty.
I've a HP 6828 - which is identical to Atom. I had this problem also.
Pls check this thread how to solve it yourself:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421982
same problem goes to me to.. at first i'm quite shocked..there might be something damaged..then i insert a tooth pick (scared if i use paperclip could short the electrical terminal inside..) into the earphone jack.hoping a miracle to happen, then few moments, my atom back to normal..

Front camera and earpiece not working

Hi all... This is my first post and and just want to say what a great community... Thanks...
Now for my problem. I have spent a lot of time reading posts and trying to solve my problems and haven't found anything that relates to what I am experiencing so hopefully someone might be able to help me out. It's a fairly long story but I'll try to give you the quick version.
I bought a new Softbank X01HT from an ebay seller. The phone arrived and when I tried use it all I would get was a bright white screen. I tried emailing the seller and got no response. (They sell several phones every day so I don't think he deliberately ripped me off, I just got a dud and the seller is too lazy to reply to emails).
I opened up the phone and investigated, my brother has an I-Mate branded version of the hermes so we swapped parts around and decided that the LCD/front ribbon cable was causing my problem. I ordered a new cable from cnn.cn. When it arrived I fitted it and thankfully the phone came to life. I did all the usual mods then, updated the ROM etc etc.
When I got it all back together the front earpiece was working but only very very quietly, I could hardly hear the person on the other end. The speakerphone works fine though. I tried hard reseting and even flashing a different ROM but this didn't help. So I opened the phone up again, thinking that I hadn't seated the earpiece properly. This time when I started it up again I got absolutely nothing from the earpiece. I also found that the front camera just doesn't work. I tried my swapping back the original ribbon cable, although I couldn't see what was going on I was still able to get someone to video call me, answer the call and still found the camera wasn't working, doing this I couldn't test the earpiece though.
I put the camera in my brothers hermes and it works just fine. We have swapped all parts around including main boards and they all interchange fine. I only strike a problem when I am using my camera with my main board. As for the earpiece we couldn't succesfully make it work in my brothers phone, but also couldn't make his earpiece work in my phone.
I have read the posts about the contacts on the earpiece, but trying this hasn't solved my problem. I guess there is a chance that the new ribbon cable I got is also faulty, but to have the same problem from two ribbon cables seems fairly unlikely. The speakerphone works fine and so does my bluetooth headset so I am fairly confident that it is not a software issue. I have used Black Satin ROM and now I have installed Schaps 3.6 (both nice ROMs btw)
Thanks to anyone who has spent the time to read this post, hopefully someone may be able to shed some light on it for me. I got the phone a fortnight ago and still haven't been able to use it properly and it's starting to drive me nuts.....
Thanks

Qtek 9100 - Mic & speaker dead, for the 2nd time

Hello all!
First, thanks for an awesome forum! It has both helped me tweak my Wizard, and also get help when I have needed it.
Well, I have no choice now but to ask here. Last autumn, my warranty was almost up, and a wierd problem presented itself. The mic and speaker suddenly just stopped working! The sidespeakers still work, I think, because the phone rings when someone calls me. But the caller can't hear me, and I can't hear the caller. And there isn't a hint of sound in it, no static or noise, there simply is nothing.
As there were only a few days before the 2 year warranty was up, I ran to my dealer and turned it in. A few weeks later, the phone returned, working again. But now that I come to think about it, I don't remember if I got a replacement or if they actually repaired it... It looked a little like they handled it rough though, maybe it was another phone... Well, that's not important right now.
The same thing has happened again! Summary:
1. Mic & phonespeaker dead
2. Stereo speakers work under certain conditions
3. Wired headset that came with the phone works, both for calling and media
So it seems like a hardware problem. Please note, although I downgraded the phone to original, official Swedish Qtek 9100 ROM, it has been thoroughly tweaked and upgraded to a number of different WM6 ROMs - but all that has been working beatifully!
Still, what are the odds for the mic&speaker dying twice in a row, on different phones (i think the present one is a replacement)?!?
Question: Does anyone recognize this? Is there a possibility that it is software related, and maybe fixable? I have searched both the web and these forums but haven't really found any information on it.
ANY input would be greatly appreciated!
Additional information:
Qtek 9100 (Swedish), G3 model, WM6 upgrade successful (unlocked)
EDIT: There are no system sounds, which is wierd, because the phone can still ring. I thought the system sounds came from the stereo speakers on the sides of the device?
Hello all!
It is a glorious day to be alive!!! Or to have a fully functional Wizard, at least!
Lol - my topic isn't very old, and i reply to it myself with a solution (?). I Googled after the Wizard service manual, and found it right here on Xda .
In all honesty, i didn't do all that much. I just followed the disassembly instructions of the wizard about half-way through, to the point where you get down to the back of the motherboard. I poked and fiddled enough to locate the mic assembly, only to discover that the mic is soldered to the mainboard of the phone. So, i figured i'd just leave it be, because if the mic is really broken the motherboard needs to be repleaced, or a replacement mic needs to be soldered on there.
After removing A LOT of dust in there (honestly, i think the service center that had my device last time wasn't very careful with anything, even a screw was missing! ), i reassembled it. The flat cable running to the keyboard was also a little skewed, but that may have been me, anyway i corrected it too. Same with the speakers.
Long story short, after successfully reassmbling the phone, i fired it up, called my home phone and voila! I works!
Not much of a fix, as i don't really know what i did exactly, but dust, dirt and some bad connections/soldering may have benn the culprit.
All in all, i'm very pleased with my afternoon here. Thanks for stopping by .

hi epatnor,
I think the problem with your phone was a stucked microswitch in the 2,5 mm connector for the headset. I read about it here in the forum. Sometimes the switch stays in the closed position and the phone still thinks the headset is connected. Thats why all the sound is sent to the not connected headset and therefor your phone seems to be not working (unless you connect the headset)...
But removing the dust is for sure not a bad thing...
For the next time: I think there was an easier solution for this problem than disassembling your phone...
regards
huibuh_1
Thanks huibuh_1,
Yes this was probably not the smoothest way of "fixing" it. That said, the stucked microswitch theory would actually fit my problem well - I can see now that the exact problem I was having would arise if such a switch was indeed stuck.
However, I think that the problem would be more intermittent since I actually use that port now and then - especially since it's the only way to talk (besides using a bluetooth headset that is). And since I connect the wired headset now and again the switch is used and moved, I suspect that this would result in the speaker/mic coming online again maybe..? Temporarily at least?
All the same, thanks for replying - this might happen again and with your information I'm better prepared for it!

Sudden Audio Death

Hello!
Yesterday while travelling, I listened to music for 3-4 hours using bluetooth earphones. After i reached home, I suddenly heard a crackling sound from the top speaker, so I thought of rebooting the phone to see if it would fix the issue. On rebooting, the audio of my phone has completely died. I can hear no audio through wired headphones, bluetooth earphones, or through the stereo speakers of the phone.
Also, when I try to make calls, the Phone app hangs for 4-5 seconds and then dials the number, only to have no audio though the earpiece, with the mic also not working. I tried rebooting multiple times, even did a hard reset, still with no luck.
Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? I have some experience opening up the phone, so I'll be willing to fix it myself if anyone knows the solution.
Yes, I have exactly the same symptoms, although how I got there is different. See in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/help/nexus-6p-replacing-battery-audio-t3754176.
I'm still no closer to a solution and still don't know whether it's a hardware or software problem. Since my audio problem began coincidentally to when my phone was opened for repair (battery replacement), that tends to make me think hardware damage or failure. Since you have exactly the same issue without any apparent hardware trauma, that tends to make me think software.

Thanks for your reply. I tried to fix the pins on the daughterboard after reading your conversation with another member. The pins seemed fine when I took out the daughterboard, still I straightened 'em a bit. The problem still persists though, no audio whatsoever.
Is there anything else you might suggest?

I wish that I could offer you a solution. When my new (to me) Nexus 6P arrives tomorrow, I'll be free to tear into my existing "audio-free" 6P. I'll examine the daughterboard and probably replace it. The daughterboards are <$15 everywhere I've looked. It's just a guess, but I bet that I could have a bad daughterboard, but not be able to determine that's bad by (my) visual inspection. It could look good (to me), but be bad. Since my audio was lost when my phone was opened to replace a battery, it seems plausible that the daughterboard was damaged in the process. Since the primary mic (maybe all the mics, I don't know) is on the daughterboard, it would certainly explain why the system isn't getting any audio input. Anyway, I feel like the small cost of the board is worth it just to see if that actually fixes the problem.
If that resolves my issue -- or I find anything that does -- I'll certainly let you know. I've bought a new (to me) phone, but I'm not ready to give up the ghost on this one just yet.

Good luck fixing your 6P. I hope you get your audio back, and if you do, please report here so we would know a possible solution. If the daughterboard is damaged, shouldn't charging also be disabled since the type-c port is on the daughterboard? Maybe the board is partially damaged. Let's see what results you get after replacing it. I totally gave up on this phone and went back to my Nexus 5. 6P was a good phone, but had too many issues. Now it's just a paper-weight though.
Once again all the best for your DIY fixing.
As written here:
Hi guys, I think I solved the problem.
After a factory reset, my phone didn't play any sound from the speakers (neither the top nor the bottom), couldn't record anything from the mic, couldn't record any type of video with the stock Google camera ("Can't connect to the camera" or 0:00 seconds long videos) and YouTube acted weird sometimes.
I spent to days looking for a solution, and I understood that the problem was in the headphone jack. It remains triggered as if there were headphones inserted, someone resolved inserting and removing a real device in the headphone jack 3 or 4 times, but it was not my case.
I took the phone apart, physically disconnected the headphone jack and then rebooted the device. All the problems are gone! The sounds came back perfectly from both speakers, the camera can now record video and the mic is working. After this test I turned off the phone, reconnected the headphone jack, rebooted and still no problems. The headphone jack works fine too, and YouTube has no problems reproducing videos.
I even tried two factory reset and everything is still working fine! I hope to be helpful to someone, this procedure has solved my problem!​
