Hello all together...since a few days I've got a serious problem with my imate.
It all started with Voice command stopped recognize my commands ( sometime during the day...i did nothing...5 minutes earlier everything was fine )
then lateron I tried to play music with the media player, but nothing came out of the speaker.
I started to get a better mood again, when someone called me and the magician made played my ringtone ( mp3 )
But when I answered the call I didnt hear the caller and neither did he....
So it is really weired... :/
This was a few days ago...in the meantime I made several cold resets, removed the powercell for about a day aso. but nothing...not even the f****** windows tones sounded.
So I tried skype on the mobile and on my desktop, just to test...
And now it is getting definetely weired.
When I called my imate from the deskopt pc firstly nothing happend. But when I started to press some buttons on the imate during the call, the sounds came through the mic and I heared them on the headphones of my desktop pc, BUT not in any way on my magician. I really dont get this... did somehow mix the speaker and the mic mixe up with each other ?!
I hope there is someone with some experience in this field, I really dont get this
And again, I really did nothing ( install copy or anything ) from the time it worked to the time it stopped working...
Thx in advance guys

Addition:
I realized

, but I think he changed the goal of his topic...so I still hope there is a solution.
Secondly I also realized that the headphone sound ( Imate ) is still working.
Bad thing
Thirdly and finally, I found it out due to the working headphone fact.
The speaker is now working fine again.
It is a ****ing loose contact, probably a serious problem of this series.
If anybody else got the same problem, try to insert the headphones only half and move them around a bit... with a bit of luck you will hear the speakers work again.... but for how long?!
ok this is a bit funny
handsfree earphone works,,,but the ear phone in the mda compact doesnt work
the normal sound speaker works,,just not the phone speaker
ok it works stuttery when i press up on the slide switch and i can hear the caller kinda stuttering
wierd software rpoblem i think
its not hardware problem as the slider makes it work,,if i constantly press up o the slider but then i hear the caller and the beep beep it makes to tell you its at full volume
My qtek s110 is doing the same thing after i dropped it, could i have knocked the contacts?
Can anyone explain why the volume slider would make it work.
Cheers
I think its a hardware prob only! Cz if the volume slider is getting the sound volume increased, you guys still couldnt get the full volume right? If so, its probably the speaker or its contacts getting the problem!

solution for no noise problems
Hey guys and girls, I also had problems with “no noise from the earpiece only.. and were puzzled with the problem for few days….until found the reason behind it.
As I am a lover with high-tech devices, I really wanted to fix this problem by myself (not prepared to pay few hundred dollars for repair from technicians).
I also want to contribute something on this site, as I have read great information’s from this site.
Here it goes.
I had this "no noise issue" problem with one of my device (have 2 sets of o2 mini) had no sound on the earpiece only (meaning speakerphone, hands free mic all works perfectly).
Now, to make everything short, I have done a great research with few personal technicians and even official technician from O2 Company and found the answers for this problem.
The fault actually lies with what is called the "Audio Daughter Board". It is a removable internal PCB that the speaker contacts to receive its audio signal from the phone. The board has a connector that is soldered to it which sits on another connector that is soldered to the main board. Both of these connectors can become removed from their respective solder connections usually as a result of a fall or physical impact. Usually all that is needed is a touch up of the solder points.
This Audio “daughter board” is connected with black connector at right hand side only, and the rest of the board with double sticky tape.
Most likely, the black connector has been disconnected to the “daughter board during drop of the device, as you need to solder the parts back (black connector has 14 legs, 7 on the left and 7 on the right) to get your earpiece sound back to normal.
I have done it, so can you (very small legs, so has to have delicate hands).
Now, mine works like a charm…. So happy…
After all, it was neither the programs, nor the legs of the earpiece, but the actual connection between the boards itself.
Hope my information helped.
Cheers
PS: I have updated my device to 2003 second edition with radio 1.13.00 but have no idea where to get pda programs. Can anyone let me know where to find such good programs?
It works!!!! Thanks
Your a genius
Hi im so happy it worked. I bought even a new speaker but this was noit the problem.
The internal speaker is now working but i found another problem with the ring tone liudness which i have to clarify now. So the serach will start again for me.
Again thanks.

You really rock m8.
I was very doubfull that this would work. I have tried everything else people has suggested to no avail.
BUT I thought I have nothing to lose in trying you suggestion.
And it worked. It really worked.
Thank you very much.
Sorry for what am i going to say, maybe i did not get things clear...
How on earth can you solder the black connector both on the main motherboard and on the audio daughter board? Am just asking cause my magician had a broken earpiece and when i open it to replace it the phone died. Strange thing is that when i remove the storage card it comes alive again but no sound from the earpiece. So this solution is great although i had to make the question just to know how to handle things.
Thanks guys
Got it guys, the one connector on the main board was detached completeley and got stuck into the other. That is why i thought that it was one piece.
Man , i said to myself how come these people got it soldered , they must all have personal nano robots lol
Update:
Burned the small black connector tha sits on the main rboard
Any chance for someone to know what sort of PCB is this so i can purchase one?
Firts of anything sorry for my inglish but i´m portuguese and my inglish is a litle rusty.
I known there are a lot of people whith this problem and i had to. I tried a lot of things and i find a solution. The major problem of the this is that the black conector don´t conect very well whith audio bord, and i do a trick, so i thake a litle peace of cotton roll in powertape (like one that is on back of keybord) and a put it as way that when e close it make pressure in de audio border conector(in left of earpiece) agaist de front cover.
I hope I can help

Thank you
Hi to all guys!
I have an LG-E900...and some time ago i get the lg logo problem (stuck on it).
I warmed the Mother Board (the one that include sim/wifi/fm)...i solved that problem but now the speaker dosn't work.
I'll explain it better...
Is like there is always the jack put in the phone, infact if i put in an headset i can hear all.
If I get a call is all mute until I put the loudspeacker mode it's all ok, the phone switch the audio and the microphone&speaker works normally.
1) I've tried to warm again that mb but no result.
2) I've tried to unsolder the jack but same result. (I've soldered it again)
3) I've search on the motherboard something wrong but it seems all ok....=(
So now i'm asking to you all what should i do to solve this problem...
I was thinking...There is no way to modify the phone registry through the MFG for switch definitely the audio on the speaker (or for disable definetly the audio-jack, losing this feature) ?
P.s.
If i go to MFG-> Engineer menu -> Device test -> microphone test and try the microphone, and after that I'll go to try the sound test, the speaker turn on and work until i receive a call or put the phone in stand by.
So i think there is something OR on the O.S. or some faulty fuse....
Anyway some help? Any solution or try will be appreciete =)
Thanks in advance for the answers and greetings from sicily!
Hello guys ,
i have note 3 N9005 , Android 4.4.2 .. I got it since last Feb. It was perfect till about 2 weeks ago , everytime i call someone on phone they ask me to rasie my voice ... We can barely hear you.
At first i though it was the network because i have bad coverage in my house , So i tried to use viber and facebook Calls , But the same problem ,, So its definitely not the network .. Almost something in my Mic.? I really dont know
I didnt do anything new or abnormal in my mobile to say it maybe a reason , so i restored factory defaults and guess what ? Nothing happened
Iam really upset and i have to shout like an idiot so they can hear me .. I saw an article that you can edit mic volume values but that need rooting and other things .. I really dont know what to do so iam asking for help please.
PS : When i talk from my earphones they can hear me very well
Go for a Warranty Claim. The microphones would have got damaged..

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
what do u mean by damaged? I googled for it but it seems its uncommon , And if its damaged how they can hear me but at low vol. ?
Update : I tried to call a friend and open phone speaker on call and guess what? They hear me perfectly. This is getting complicated.
Its now not a mic problem
Just to let you know guys , i solved the problem. I visited a center for samsung care and told him the issue.
He used a tiny thing like a thin pin and put it inside the mic then draw it back , Then asked me to test it .. So i called some friends and it worked perfectly fine
He told me that the mic hole was just little plugged and needed just a little clean , I told him that when i use speaker they can hear me fine , How could it be the mic then!? .. We had no idea but it worked as before and he didn't even get any money.
So for future if anyone ever had the same problem , just check your mic hole .. Some dust and issues maybe closing it.
Hi all. I hope someone will help me
My Elife E7 upper speaker doesn't work anymore. I can't hear voices of people who call me, while headphones work as same but I think there is a different hardware piece for that ( I am not very strong in electonics.....). Well.... Are there any possibilities that I can replace the upper speaker? A few days ago first problems started: friends of mine can't hear my voice using whatsapp or Skype but after reboot all was normal, so I have thought there was a problem between Discovery Elite rom and the use of microphone by apps; now me I can't hear them instead! I tried to do an hard reset but nothing, I tried to reflash rom but nothing so I can only hope that someone knows how can I find the replacement piece for the upper speaker.
THANKS!!!!!!!
