My XDA Mini seems to think that the headphones are still plugged in when they are not. Therefore I can't hear any sound come out of it unless I plug the headphones back in. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to fix it? I have done both soft resets and hard resets. I've had the phone for 4 months with no problem until now.

I'm sorry, I can't help you, but a have a very simular problem.

I used the antenna cable connector to get better reception, but when I took out the connector it seems that the MDAc didn't switch back to internal antenna. I've got nearly no reception (~10% as usual).

Maybe someone can help us both.

I have the same problem, and I am currently just living with it (I just a headset most of the time), but I will send it in for service sooner or later.

WD40 didn't help in my case... :(

ej, I had the same problem, ie no sound coming out of the rear speaker. At first I thought it was a problem with the headphone jack plug. Then I realised it was the external speaker that was defective. When you have the headphones plugged in, you should still hear the ringtone from the external speaker when someone calls you. If you do hear a ringtone, then it's the headphone switch. If you don't, it must be the external speaker.

I sent mine back to Germany (mine is an MDA Compact). T-Mobile could not repair it and replaced it with a new one!

I also had the same problem with my XDA II, and no amount of hard resets would fix it.

Strangely, it fixed itself after a few days. It seems like there's a design flaw in the sound hardware across the whole range of PPC devices produced by HTC.

I wish they'd get it sorted out!
