strange internal speaker behaviour

[XDAmaddin]

the internal speaker only works for Windows events and playing music ......
But when I try to use the phone the speaker doesn't work. The result is, that I have a phone without phone-functions.
In my opinion the phone-application still uses a headset-profile and can't switch back to use the internal speakers. First of al I tried a softreset and later a hardreset. Didn't help ;-(

Try this:

Take a needle in your hand and try to rummage a little the earphones plug (near the usb slot). Not too hard but not too little.

Check if it helps and get back to me.

@ try the needle: I wouldn't do it!

I'va used the original earphones, but it also didn't help. For me it seems that the phone changes its profile while (un)plug the headphone. In my situation the phone couldn't change between the internal and external profile and the result was, that the internal earphine, mic and speaker didn't work. Absolutely nothing helped. I gave up and went to bed ......

The next morning nothing has changed. After approximately 12h the phone made some curious noise and everything works now fine. Now I'm happy, but I did nothing. Maybe there a task in WM5 that proofs the internal status and repairs itself?!?! ...or my phone-jack cleaned himself and stopped notifying a plugged headset ;-)

Thanks xda-developers and its users for ideas!

Thats a problem with HTC devices.

There's a little connector in the earphone slot which bends in the way its not supposed to bend which in fact causes the effect that the phone thinks the earphones are plugged in.

If the problem occurs again, try that needle thing i described, coz many users reported it works.

omg, that just solved my problem (not beeing able to hear anything on both speakers)

i put the earphones in the audiojack and while i slowly pulled it out i tried to rotate it in all directions and pressing it outwards and POP, sound was there again !

thanx so much

It REALLY works. I needed just 10 seconds with the needle to bring both the speaker and the microphone to working order.
