Incredible speaker blown

played some music for a hour or so... now my speaker is blown. I called it in and of course they repeated "wow this is the first time we have heard of this"..I interrupted them and let them know HTC is aware of this problem there are so many others with the same issue. Within the next minute my "like new" phone was processed and 2 day shipping confirmation received. dancedroid

My wife's DINC had the same problem with the speaker not working. We called Verizon tech and they had us do a factory data reset (settings-->privacy--factory data reset) on the phone, and after reactivating the phone, the speaker worked again! He claimed it was most likely a software bug caused by an application or recent update.

mine just recently blew out too...do they replace the whole phone, or just the speaker? Also, do they cover that under warranty? I bought the phone full retail, so they better give me a new one:icon_evil:

i just received my fourth incredible after the 3rd one blew the speaker after only having it for three weeks. but this time the service rep at verizon noted on the computer that if it happens again they will offer my a different brand of device. hopefully it doesn't blow. i even ordered a nice pouch for it so i don't get anything on the speaker. i really like this phone but after four replacements i'm kinda getting tired of it. if it blows time for a different device. perhaps the samsung facinate?? or maybe if my phone last long the new HTC that will come out by the end of the year that looks like the EVO?? oh my...

I'm on my 4th DINC (well I will be tomorrow). All of them have had blown speakers. I don't listen to music or use aftermarket ring tones. If this one goes then I will be getting the Droid X

Mine blew 4 days after I got it and they sent me a certified-like new. Figures. Apparently the batch of DIncs mine came from had a different speaker then the originals (probably due to the shortages) so my tech figured the speaker was just a pos knock-off

New one works fine. Glitchy here and there but nothing that can't be lived with.

Must say, I am still bitter about getting a phone that wasn't brand new...
