Hi all,

As above really. Everything was working this morning. I then used the hands free to listen to a voice mail in the office. Next time I went to use it with out the head set - nothing. the loud speacker also doesn't work but hands free still does.

Any ideas? Have a changed some secret setting while it was in my pocket or something?

Cheers,
Dunc

Had that problem with my Jornada 928 back in the day. For me, I just inserted and took out the 3.5mm headphone socket thing a few times. It seemed to think that there was a headphone device attached and diverted the sound through the headphone port instead of the loud speaker. Hope that works out for you.

I had the same problem when i loaded SKYPE and changed the setting in skype to enable better sound clarity though the head set. then when i took off the head set everything was dead..no sound from the speaker or the loudspeakers. i had to use the headset if i needed to make calls or do anything with sound on my machine. finally i figured out that the setting in Skype disabled my loudspeakers etc.
so if you have any common software or stuff like Skype i suggest u look at the setting.

cheers

Thanks Venk,

Not added any other software and have checked the settings so not sure. Will go to O2 today and see what they have to say.

Thanks,

try to hard reset and that should slove the problem if not go to your service and ask them to investigate. as i know there should'nt be any hardware damage and this is only a problem becasue of the setting that you have made. anyways take care and wish u all the best.
