View Full Version : Stuck in car-kit mode?

My XDA1 (Siemens SX56, actually) is acting like it's perpetually stuck in car-kit mode.

In normal operation, there's no sound from the speaker at all, though I can hear sound at a reduced volume through the earpiece. Upon answering a call, the speakerphone instantly turns on and appears to be listening for mic input only through the main mic and only when the earpiece is not plugged in. Many hard resets and headphone-jack tweaks performed to no avail. Possibly relevant: upon hard reset without SD card inserted, the device claims to have an "Unrecognized Device in Slot 1."

No recent software or hardware changes, haven't plugged it into anything but the usual USB cable and cradle so I wouldn't think anything got shorted out.

Any ideas? Or, anybody break their screen and want to give/sell me theirs?
