No Sound Coming From External Speaker...

. . .A monkey could SBF in less than 10 minutes. . . . The only people who have problems are the ones who don't read closely enough before they start.

Monkeys can read!?

I knew it was a mistake to let those chimps watch the Sci-Fi Channel. Well I'm off to pick out a comfortable leash and cage.

Theoretically, enough monkeys with enough typewriters could write Shakespeare.

Unfortunately randomness and infinity do not produce a similar theory for understanding literature. Though I suppose infinite monkeys might be able to sbf in something shorter than infinity. Pardon me if I don't volunteer my phone for the experiment.

RSDLite is NOT likely to lock you up? It's the ultimate tool for resetting your phone when it IS locked up. A monkey could SBF in less than 10 minutes. And if you follow the directions, there's pretty much zero risk. The only people who have problems are the ones who don't read closely enough before they start.

I'm kind of here for help not ridicule. I've spent a lot of time trying to fix this issue with my droid. I cannot use RSD lite because it is a Windows only program and I use a Mac. I rooted my droid, but this had no effect on this issue either. If anyone else has other ideas or programs that might help I'd be very grateful.

Well, it sounds like you're pretty much at the stage where an SBF might be your only option. I wasn't really ridiculing, seriously, RSD Lite is EASY. Get yourself a copy of the right SBF for your phone, the right motoconnect drivers from motorola, and a copy of RSD Lite. (All of these are in links in this forum, just search up top). Put 'em on a flash drive and go to a friend's house. It only takes 10-15 minutes from start to finish. Once you've done that and cleared your cache/data, your phone is in brand new, out of the box state. If your speaker still doesn't work, then you know you've got a hardware issue.

I'm sure I will do this on a PC eventually. Of course most of my friends use macs. Why wouldn't a factory wipe accomplish the same things as RSD?

Because a factory wipe does just that.. it wipes data that you have added to the phone since you got it. RSD Lite and an SBF file overwrite ALL the software that comes on the phone.

I just found myself with the same problem. No sound from the earpiece when on a call but speaker works. Can't hear any media (videos on sd card or online, no music when using music player). But phone rings and ringtones work under settings. Under settings - sound - media audio effects it doesn't say connected under phone speaker. Any ideas?

[stinger161]

Ok that's weird. It just fixed itself. Shows speaker connected. I think my phone is becoming self aware. Now if it will start printing money.

A lot of Android phones are having this issue. Try this app and see if it works. The Pro version lets you route sound during phone calls too!
