The same thing just happened to me on my HTC Incredible. Did you find a solution?

I remember to have some kind of problem with the 2.3 oem, but not sure if it was the sound. Any way, stock roms are so slow that theres one think you think of : root.
Here in canada, bell was the official seller for the desire z, and the main reason of why people return the device was the laggy stock rom with some adds from bell. Of course the z hinge too. But with a after market rom, in my opinion, this is one of the best device.

Help! No sound from speakers

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...

??? 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

Surround now has major speaker buzz after NoDo

Has anyone else run into this issue? I did the official Nodo update for surround through Zune last night. (Everything on my phone is still stock, and locked). And now I am getting some crazy overdrive when listening to music with the phone speakers. I'm lovong nodo but this sound issue is driving me crazy. Any other surround owners run into this?

I just played a few songs and youtube videos at max volume and cycled through the sound modes on the external speaker, I get no static or extra noise.
No problems here. Although I did use the ROM that football posted :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051579
Great ROM to those who havent tried it. ALL firmware is updated : OS, Firmware revision, Radio software, & Bootloader. And I can now use Hidden WiFi from HTC!
Hmm, do either of you use Htc Sound mixer?

I mean HTC Sound Enhancer.

My phone is fine. I have a Telus HTC Surround with NoDo. Maybe you should try flashing to a previous firmware, and re-updating to Nodo.
i have issues with my sound too.. everything sounds fine only with the fact that it is blasting.
this is my 2nd time updating to the official nodo, and the speakers is still blasting.
i was wondering if they boosted the speakers or something but it seems like a lot of people dont have this issue >.>

NoDo broke all software volume leveling for all models. If you'll notice, volume sliders in games don't work any more.
Maybe that's what it is. I wonder if I should roll back to protect my speakers, or just keep everything turned down to 15.
I'm actually digging around in the registry to see if I can come up with a kludge.
haven't had this issue but try uninstalling htc sound enhancer and reinstalling it maybe?
I have tried that, I don't notice as much of a buzz when it Sound Enhancer is uninstalled but it is still there. And is most definitely back in force on a reinstall.
Regarding the HTC Sound Enhancer using the ROM from football: NO BUZZ at all. Crystal clear!

Please Help - Desire HD possible hardware issue

Hi guys, I live in Australia and recently bought a Desire HD from Clove (about 3 months ago). I recently went to listen to music on it via headphones and realised only one ear piece was working, the other had a soft hiss. Tried some other known working headphones and had the same issue.
When I take the head phones out, the audio play back is very muffled and the same hissing noise can be heard, which continues for 3 secs or so when the ringtone or music is finished playing.
I contacted HTC support and was told I had to send to back to HTC support UK. I sent it to them and received it back really quickly. The phone isnt repaired at all, its exactly the same as when I sent it, and there's no repairer report or anything.
I have tried going back to a standard ROM, it doesnt matter which I use, the audio playback is always crap.
Can anyone suggest anything? I have tried applying various audio fixes, with no improvement.
This is my 4th HTC device and the first I have ever had issues with.
Please help!!!!
Did you use headphones when you were on stock ROM when you first got the dhd or had they been working up till recently. Just trying to understand if this was existing problem or a recent development?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Yeah, I used the headphones alot from day one. It started happening after about 2 months. Really annoying. I think I found another issue as well. If I plug in the headphones and use the FM radio, then select speaker, I just get hissing from the speaker and no fm radio (but yes it does work through the headphones when headphones are selected).
Well I just finished chatting to HTC UK support. I am going to attempt sending it back to them again.
The last attempt at a fix was to reflash the phone.... they obviously flashed it then put it back in the back to send, without testing it. Nice work Regenersis/HTC
Nice way to waste my money.

Phone strangely switches between front and rear speaker.. why?

I received my device a couple of days back and today I encountered a very weird problem. Sometime phones uses the front speaker and sometimes it uses the rear loud speaker. I got a call, received it and turned the speaker on..the other person on call couldn't hear my voice but I could listen to hers. The a minute later the phone was playing everything from the front speaker rather the than rear. Be it audio songs, videos song anything. When I was pressing the volume rocker, there was no sound coming from any speaker. Finally, I restarted the phone and it's back to normal. What went wrong, any idea? As this might happen again.:s
My phone's condition: Totally stock. No root. No ROM. No kernel change. All stock. Running 4.2.2
Guess I was suppose to post it in Q&A forum. If so, mods, please move it there.

The EAR PIECE that 'can' be called a Front Speaker (as inside the earpiece is a speaker), which goes without saying.
-----------------------
Anyhow, back to the topic.. Has anyone encountered this issue on his/her device?
Seeing responses like the above quoted comment, I might add my phone rattles, but I don't find it an issue. As long as such things aren't affecting the usability of the device, I am completely OK with it. But 2 problems have really bothered me. One is well known, the camera can't focus at all and second is the subject of this thread. So, I really want to inquire if anyone came across this earpiece/speaker problem that I faced and how it was fixed, permanently.
RMA that sucker. Hardware fault.

I had a similar problem.
I would play music from the back but eventually it would play music in the earpiece. I forgot what I did prior, but it had to do with using a modified google play version.
I just re-flashed the rom and it worked fine after that.

Alright, thanks for the response.
I am playing music from the built in Music Player. And I am totally stock. Although it didn't happen again but I was hoping if I could know what to do (besides restarting) when it happens the next time.
