[Q] my acer s200 neotouch speaker/headphone

Hello everyone,

i have problem with my acer s200 im not sure if its the speaker or headphone, here is what it happen

i have no sound if i play anything music/video etc...and when i get a call i cant hear nor someone can hear me back. but when i connect my bluetooth to my phone i can talk and hear from bluetooth, but i still cant listen to music or anything trough my bluetooth. and when my bluetooth is connected i can use my phone speaker i can talk (so my mic is working) but i cant hear anyone unless i touch my phone screen and hold it...it goes same to music, if my bluetooth is connected i can play music on my phones speaker but i still have to touch my phone screen and hold it down as long as i want to hear the music.

i took it to few stores where they fix phones but they said that they cant fix it or do anything about it.

if anyone can help me, i will appreciate it.

oh and also my msn doesnt work for some reason.

iv done fresh reboot and did flash it but nothing fixed.

Thanks

This is quite a common problem with this model. If you pushed the headset pin too hard in, you might have damaged the socket. Basically there are two pins at the bottom of the socket that need to be in contact when the headset is removed. I had this problem and had to take the set back to Acer who repaired it as it was still under warranty. I think there is a DIY posted in this forum also, but it is not particularly easy. A temporary measure is this:

Get PHM Registry Editor installed and got to Tools>Find...> and type "headsetin" in "Find What:", click "Find Next" and it will show you a key under "Scenario" with HeadsetIn under Name and 1 under Data. Change the "1" to "0" and your speakers will start functioning again. The only problem here is that your speakers will function even when you have a headset in. Hope this helps.
