[podelz]

Hi all,

I have been using the htc elf 3450 since last year. It's very nice smartphone. But now I just a little bit problem with my htc elf.
When somebody called me, I cannot heard the voice on my earphone. When I switched to the loudspeaker mode, It's work, I can hear the voice.
I don't know what is happen with my earphone? Would you mind to tell me if you have any solution for this problem?

Thank you for your help.

it is a known problem of elf. I had the same problem with my elf and had to order an earpiece through ebay from china. after buying the earpiece replacement is easy. you can do it yourself using the disassemblement guide on this forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407323

good luck
