Intermittent Dead Back Speaker.

[nlinecomputers]

Ok I have a weird intermittent problem with the back speaker going dead. I'm certain it not a software issue.

The back speaker suddenly quits and just as suddenly starts working again. No sounds, no settings will adjust this.

I have Stock 2.1 Droid that has been rooted and has sprecovery on it. I've rebooted, tried safe mode, battery pull, I did a factory reset and a spf flash back to 2.0.1. Still no sound untill it was in my pocket and suddenly restarted. I'm thinking I have a short in the speaker. I want this phone replaced but how can I prove to Verizon that I have an issue. It has done this on me twice in the past month.

Is there something I can do to fix this or make it fail totally without harming the unit and voiding warranty of course.

It does sound like a hardware issue. I would say unroot and take it in and try to replicate the issue. Or try calling vzw and see what tech support tells you.

I haven't been able to replicate the issue. It just happens. It was two weeks ago when it happened the last time and it fixed it self in about a hour. This time it was 24 hours and I was about to return it when it started working again. (Evil thing knows it was about to be returned....It's mocking me.)

This sounds like an issue that several Razr owners are experiencing. See this thread for explanation:
