After an unintended pool plunge... with my magician sitting in my belt... I got it back to life! I started a thread about it: Survivor.
I got however a "salty spotted" screen (I can live with it) but after testing BT GPS, ASync, etc., I've found a extremely tricky bug: Phone sound is routed ONLY via the phone built in speaker. Bt handsfree or stereo headset use RESETS the phone, just THE PHONE.
i can hear music, use my BT GPS, but calls have to be done with my Magician in my ear... even while driving...Opps!
And then the bad news: Official "HTC" service refused to take it for repair, stating that HTC policy prevents them from doing so, when the factory installed "moisture indicator" has changed color.
AND THAT INCLUDES OUT OF WARRANTY DEVICES. NO EXCEPTIONS, even if you are willing to pay.
Any help on my call sound problem?

Not anyone with some HW knowledge?
Where is the Phone sound-output router (whatever the name) circuit?
Or any other experience about wet circuit boards?

Thanks in advance.

:cry:

Hi, I bought a phone from a guy, with only the sound from the headset plugged in working. Handsfree or not the internal sound and mike were shut off somehow. When I opened the phone it seemed somebody else allready had been looking in the same place, the phonejack circuit.
I used my 15 Watt soldering iron and some new solder and just tipped for a few seconds all six connections. And voila my sound came back again. Hope it works for you too.
