Yes the one less 0 is ok, I think it might be a typo in the first post, I dunno...my US Tmobile unit says PB81120.

Does yours have a carrier label on the case or on the ROM maybe? I'm not sure what "NM" means, but it sounds to me like you have the euro or the Telstra version, and not the Tmo US version.
[HD2 General] mutantblack:
Hi guys,

I have Tmobile HD2 and it's on stock radio 2.08. I flash nrg rom 04/23 6.5.x and everything was working fine. Today I just changed the rom to 4/23 6.5 and now my speaker don't make any sounds. Everything play fine through headphone but not from speaker. I play music, movies, ringtones nothing works. No sounds. I just did task29 and flashed to 2 other different roms and still no sounds. What happened to my phone? Is the speaker gone for good? I only had this phone for a week. Any helps is appreciated.
[HD2 General] Flashmore:
I've had a similar issue in past phones, where after removing audio jack the phone still thinks it is plugged in and even a hardreset didnt fix it. Try to remove and insert the audio jack rapidly in succession, its worth a try. Good luck.

Regards

Flashmore
[HD2 General] mutantblack:
Thanks for prompt reply. I tried multiple time with no success.
[HD2 General] moddedx:
what other roms have you tried. i am running the energy ROM on my tmobile HD2 without a problem i would try it
[HD2 General] mutantblack:
I don't think it's rom related. I try nrg, miri, stock and cell. none works.
[HD2 General] vitordepaula:
I had the same issue. I think thats happen after i use earfone.

Do you solve this problem?

thx
[HD2 General] zelendel:
I had the same issue. The easiest way to tell if it is the same issue is to look to see if you have the headset icon in the bar when you dont have any connected. I solved this by (not suggesting you do it unless you are sure) there is a pressure prong on the top of the 3.5 jack. I used a tool to bend it down a little. If you still can I would swap it out for a new one.
[HD2 General] sharky2007:
i have the same issuse, and i've tried 2 rom until now.

in a call, if i press speaker, i can hear everything.

if i'm using mediaplayer, tcmp, youtube client, i get no sound.

even if i try to change the ringtone, i cannot hear when it plays for demo.

but if i plug in my headphones, everything works prefect, i can hear.

i have no headphones icon in the upper part of the display (so that the phone thinks i didn't get the jack out).

any ideea would be really appreciated.
[HD2 General] brush2:
Hi all,

i bought unbranded/unlocked HD2 on 5-6-2010 and played alots with it - so i didn't really noticed a serious speaker problem.

Within the first week i wondered about the fact that i sometimes couldn't hear the callers voice. I had this effect even when i called somebody. I thought about a software error - so i flashed to the latest german stock ROM.

But it didn't fixed the problem. I was only able to hear somebody, when i used the internal speaker or the headset.

One day i got a call and i "accidentally" pressed the phone speaker a bit harder than usual to my ear and the voice came and left - (ear)speaker defect.

I informed the dealer about this defect and i got a new HD2.

He told me, it would be the ninth HD2 with this particular defect since January 2010.

Please check your speaker for a defective contact - maybe it hits you too.

Good luck,

Stephan
[HD2 General] sharky2007:
mine was a software problem.

i have elegancia 8.5 now and it works, i can hear youtube, fm radio on the speaker.

the other thing that bothers me is that the sound i hear in a call is too low.

i don't know if it's a radio problem.

ah, btw, i can't use the volume hardware buttons, they are broke :D from a down fall, and i can't seem to find how to change in a call volume from windows.
[HD2 General] 1IV54IV3:
I also hat that prob. The funny solution: Audio was set to silent in windows media player. After turning up the volume the problem was gone. I had this problem only one times. Strange thing...
[HD2 General] agesilaus:
I have the same problem with my hd2 now and still couldnt fix it.I have htc2 for 2-3 months, didnt have this kind of problem, no sound from the phone without earphones.can it be solved with any sound driver or sth like that, I tried hard reset, flashing, orginal rom, downloaded previous working rom, no solution.Appreciate if you could give some advices.thanks

note:happened after half an hour downloading laurentius 26 rom
[HD2 General] agesilaus:
??? help pls ???
[HD2 General] Spacechimp:
My speaker stopped working last night. Had been working fine for the last few weeks.

Haven't installed anything or done anything different in the last few days.

Have only recently got my phone set up as I want it, so I'm loathe to do a factory reset. Read on another forum that HTC are aware of this and that 65% of HD2 owners suffer with is - not sure how true this is though.

If it's a hardware issue, is it easy to replace the speaker? If so, is it easy to order one?

Thanks

SC
[HD2 General] istmar:
I have the same problem! I have try like for ROM already and no solution i even uninstall HSPL to see if anything happened but not luck so far. can any expert or someone who have already solved this problem post a solution or something PLEASE i getting worried or i mean i am already!!

THANKS!
[HD2 General] istmar:
fixed It!! speaker Problem!HD2

well is was pretty simple! all i did was i put speaker volume on muted and with the earphone start to plug in and and out the jack several times while i was playing a video on windows media after that i unplug it and set the speaker volume up and hit play!!! speaker on!!!!
[HD2 General] goldenchild7801:
Just had the no sound from speaker problem, I always use my bluetooth motorokr s9-hd headset but i didnt feel like charging it so i used my sony earbuds with the 3.5 jack for the first time and it caused the no sound from speaker issue......I plugged the earbuds back in, played with the volume buttons on the phone and the speaker is back on:D
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
Hi, Today after a couple of hours trying the phone, when i rebooted the phone, a message showed up saying that the memory was not recognized. After a couple of more reboots, the message changed showing that the memory needed a format, but i could not format it from the phone. After it, i took the battery off to look at the memory, trying to take it off and put it on again, but i could not take the memory off! The memory was below the slot. It looks normal, but i cannot take it off since it is being blocked by a black plastic. I was told that the memory was supposed to go off by pushing the microsd, but i cannot even push it since it is below the slot and not in the slot. I dont know if it is normal, but when i just got the phone, i thought the phone did not have any memory in there, and inserted a microsd of 16gb in this slot. I realized that the memory was still 8gb and not 16gb, so i took the 16gb away. I couldnt see any memory in the slot and after a while i looked that below the slot was a number 8, realizing that that was the memory. At that time, the memory was working properly until i played some music in my car and the application was forced to close. I turned the phone OFF and sine that time, the memory could not be recognized. Please, someone help me!

Thank you guys in advance!
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
By the way, when i was in the car after the application crashed, after rebooting a couple of times due the memory error, the phone didn't want to turn on. After waiting a couple of minutes, it worked. Now, after a couple of hours with the same memory problem, i turned off the device and now it doesn't turn on, even with the USB connected.
[XPERIA X10 General] augie7107:
You stuffed two cards in the slot when you first got it?!
[XPERIA X10 General] wai_lai416:
i'm confused by ur post. so you are saying you attempted to jam a 16gb into the memory slot because you thought there was no microsd in the memory card slot? only to realize there was a 8gb microsd in there already? if that's the case you probably did some damage to the memory card slot by forcing a 16gb mem card on top of a 8gb mem card. if u purchased it from a retail store, i try taking it back and say the mem card doesn't work without mentioning you jammed another mem card into it.
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
I tried to since the slot was empty and the empty size was the exact size of a micro sd. When i just got the phone, i could not even take the microsd off since it was below the slot, not in the slot. There was a big empty space in the slot.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
??? Did you try shoving it into the SIM card slot??
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
What do you mean? The micro SD? no. I inserted my SIM card as normal to the SIM Slot. The only thing missing was the memory from the microsd slot. The memory could not be seen and the slot looked empty.
[XPERIA X10 General] omgsigh:
i'm confused did you or did you not jam another 16gb sd slot but you found out there already was a 8gb in it already?
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
Modders please keep this thread. I sold the X10 to the thread starter and will need this as proof that he damaged the phone himself and requesting refund.

thank you
[XPERIA X10 General] wai_lai416:
i don't even know what he is trying to say.. the area below the microsd slot is solid.. so how do you even jam a microsd underneath it? and there's no way in hell you can fit 2 microsd in that tiny microsd slot..the slot itself is almost an exact fit with not much wiggle room.. and beside.. u said you THOUGHT there was no memory card in the phone so you INSERTED a 16gb in only to realize there was an 8gb in there already.. that sentence alone will prevent you from getting any refund out of it..
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Ok.. I think I know what he's saying... He's saying that the SD card SLOT was empty so he put a 16Gb card in.. however.. what he didn't realise at the time was that the factory which packaged that phone had attempted to pre-install a Micro SD card already.. but had pushed it underneath the slot instead of pushing it into the slot... Therefore "polostarz" I think that you might need to see the handset before you assume incompetence on the part of this customer... sounds to me like the factory have done the damage.
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
yes i asked him what he meant so i asked him to send me picture but as you will see the 8gb sd card is where its suppose to be. But looked how he damaged it while forcing it in and out. It was perfect before nothing below or on top of the sd slot.

if it was like that when he first got it he would have told me. but the very first thing he said to me was that he could not find the sd card.
[XPERIA X10 General] wai_lai416:
you got a bigger picture? it's awfully tiny to see anything
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
yes. I assure you that it was in perfect condition when I sold it except the battery cover was a bit squeaky. I sold this on Ebay by the way.
[XPERIA X10 General] wai_lai416:
i'm guessing those are the "after" pictures?
[XPERIA X10 General] Stef_dude:
It looks like the plastic at the end is broken, don't think this is a production problem.
[XPERIA X10 General] p40520:
my battery cover was was also a little bit squeaky.

I just used pincil to draw around the edge of battery cover and I've never heard that sound since then.
[XPERIA X10 General] p40520:
I think he couldn't push it because he pushed it downward rather than pushing it as in sliding motion.

The memory is still 8gb because the new 16gb card that he somehow inserted it was on top.

That pretty much damaged the memory slot

I think that is an user error, that is what User Manual for.
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
yup, I was try to help him with his problem so i asked him to send me pictures. At first, I thought he was trying to put the sd card into the piece of plastic right next to the camera. He sent me pictures and i saw the damage and asked him why is it like that, he said it was like that when he got it. heh
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
anyone knows how the damaged microSd might have affected the phone and left it unable to be turned on? Try to repair by updating?
[XPERIA X10 General] wai_lai416:
well the damaged slot probably wouldn't affect the phone and make it unable to turn on.. that is unless he damaged the pcb.. in that case.. repair wouldn't do anything
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
Yes, this is the point I am trying to go. When i received the phone, the memory was underneath the slot, not in the slot. By the way, how do you guys think i can insert a memory if i have seen that the slot was too small? The memory slot was as big as a microsd memory, and that is why i thought there was nothing, but after looking it carefully with a lamp, a realized that the slot was underneath the empty slot, and it was being blocked so i could not even push the memory to take it off. How can i damage the slot if it was already damaged. When i just got the phone, the manual said that i had to insert a memory, and since the slot was EMPTY (because the memory was under the slot, and not in the slot) i tried to insert the memory, it fixed the first half, but after that i couldnt insert it properly, so i took it off. I trying to take off the 8gb memory that was underneath the slot but couldnt do it, and by the way, the phone doesnt even turn on. Last night, i left it with the charger plugged in and in the morning, the phone was ON. After that, i copied all my contacts, and turned off the phone. Now, it does not even turn on again. While it was ON, i could not recognize the memory even.
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
If you looks at the pictures you sent me, anyone can instantly recognize an Sd card not to mention it is engraved SD card slot. When I sent out the phone everything was working and I can not see what you mean by SD card under the slot. If everyone was to look the picture pictures you sent me, they will say it was in the right place. You also DID state that the 8gb card was stuck which meant it was in the right place all along. When you jammed in the second 16gb in the first place that was what probably made the 8gb get stuck. You DID say that the first thing you did was put in a 16gb.

Even though you had problems with the phone if you were reasonable about it I would have tried to help. But you seemed to have intentionally broken off the "piece of plastic" that was blocking the slot. If I can even get it working again I will not be able to sell it at the same price.

Thank You for admitting publicly that the first thing you did was try to put a sd card in the slot. Which was the reason everything started.
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
Everyone please look at the picture's provided and tell me if the SD card is below the slot or "below the slot". Keep in mind that anton said he never removed the SD card and the bottom of the SD card was never damaged when I had phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] wai_lai416:
how the microsd card gets jammed below the slot is still a mystery to me.. regardless of who did it.. i'm not siding with anyone coz who knows which side is correct. but i think it takes WAYYYY too much force to force the memory card below the slot.. how that happen i'm really interested to know. i doubt it's a manufacture defect just coz they probably installed thousands of these to know how to install a microsd card properly.
[XPERIA X10 General] omgsigh:
yea thats true but if you look at the pictures polostarz put up you can see the sd card right there in front of your face lol. I also can't see how you can put another sd card underneath that. i think he thought it was part of the design and started tearing at the plastic he was talking about to get at the memory card lol
[XPERIA X10 General] njfpolyr6:
i was comparing the pictures with my x10. Obviously a piece of plastic is missing, and if you zoom in the pictures (open the picture in new wiindows and use ctrl + mouse scroll) you will see there is a "gap" underneath the memory card slot, and i think he is trying to jam that "gap" and might caused the damage of pcb.

anyways, how could that piece of plastic is missing?????
[XPERIA X10 General] omgsigh:
yeah I'm really confused. First he said there was a piece of plastic blocking the sd card so I'm guessing he had to rip it out to actually put in the 16gb. "It looks normal, but i cannot take it off since it is being blocked by a black plastic. I was told that the memory was supposed to go off by pushing the microsd, but i cannot even push it since it is below the slot and not in the slot". Yup sounds like he broke it himself and is trying to get a refund. Sucks to be polostarz
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
The pictures does not show the detail. I will take a picture of just the slot so you guys can see the empty space. At the same time, the phone has been turning ON at nights, i am still leaving the phone with the charger plugged in and the lights are still off. Last night, when i got home at 3 am the phone was ON, i dont know why. I tried turning it OFF and after that it does not turn on again...

edit: Here is the picture:

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/8617/dsc05221j.jpg

can someone show me the same picture of your X10? if you see, the memory is stuck below the slot, and you can see the empty space at the top of the memory...
[XPERIA X10 General] njfpolyr6:
no offense, but the spot is too dark. we cannot see it clearly.
[XPERIA X10 General] njfpolyr6:
here are the pictures i took from my x10. As comparing with yours...there is a piece of plastic is missing under your memory card slot. This could not be a factory defective and it is obviously taken apart by force and it made it look like there are "two" memory card slot.

good luck, dude! :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] yetep:
I forgot I signed up to citizens advice xda!
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
It seems that there is a black cover missing at the bottom. At the same time, i see the memory perfectly fits on your slot, in this phone, the slot is empty and the memory is below it. That is my point.

[XPERIA X10 General] njfpolyr6:
dude, if u can take ur pictures with flash it will give some clear view. but that is not the main point now. i saw ur memory card is inserted correctly into the card slot. but the "black cover" u refered is missing which is not supposed to. so i dunno how u forced to take that piece of plastic out.

Sent from my X10i using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[XPERIA X10 General] ansontou:
I did not take any piece out. The phone is still as how i received. The memory is under the slot, and not in the slot. I can clearly see the 8gb memory that is inside a silver reader that is supposed to be the microsd slot but it is under the empty space at the top. I cannot take the memory out even pushing it, that is the problem.
[XPERIA X10 General] polostarz:
That was definitely how the phone looked when I sent it out to you. You yourself admitted that there was a piece of plastic blocking the sd card from being taken out. But now what happened to that plastic? I am not stupid and will not send out a item damaged and hope that its not noticeable only to waste time and money to have it return.

Your very first email to me was simply "You did not include a micro sd" if it was damaged like that then you would have complained about it in the first email.

You have openly admitted that your problems started after you attempt to insert another SD card in the slot.

Also, please understand that the SD card you circled in red is the correct place where the SD card should be. I am sure our fellow posters will tell you the same thing. Please do not further damage to phone just to attempt to win the dispute.

I am 100% confident that the phone was not like that when it was sent out. Its been used for a week and bought new. I also do not see how I would have missed such a huge defect on the phone or much less damage it internally like that.

Because I have a direct confession from you stating that at the beginning phone was working fine until you forcefully inserted your own micro SD, I may consider taking legal action.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bialynia:
I am impressed by your ingenuity! I never thought of increasing my SD capacity 24 gigs by simply doubling the amount of cards I stick in one slot.

I'm going to check if my phone works underwater, I will let you all know how that works out.
[XPERIA X10 General] omgsigh:
Dude you don't make sense the sd card is where its suppose to be. First you say that there was a black piece of plastic blocking the SD card. but it looks like theres no longer a plastic now. and of course you can't take it out you jammed in your own SD card first!! Should check if your own SD card works now. Hey maybe you should tell polostarz that he broke your 16gb also and make him pay for it!!!:eek:
[XPERIA X10 General] njfpolyr6:
honestly speaking, i still have no idea on how the piece of plastic got taken out. also i still dun get how he jammed his second 16gb underneath the 8gb as there is no available open space to penetrate in when the plastic thing is attached....

Sent from my X10i using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[XPERIA X10 General] omgsigh:
same here. But he went from piece of plastic blocking what he thought is the SD slot to no plastic at all and it came like that. So anybody could tell how THAT happened.
[XPERIA X10 General] zerophrame:
When purchasing a product, one assumes that the person buying has a basic understanding of how devices work. One also would assume that if there is doubt on how to use a device, that there is the manual/documentation that they can consult.

After reading all 5 pages and looking at the pictures supplies, it seems the OP mistakenly ripped out the plastic piece below the microSD slot and shoved in a card and is now looking for an out on how to get his money back.
[XPERIA X10 General] omgsigh:
In this case he might as well just sell it out himself, someone would buy it and fix it. Its either get some cash back on an item you broke yourself or get a full refund and have the seller sue you for probably more money. I mean he did admit to forcing another SD card in and all his contradicting statements further proves he's hiding something. Goodluck Polostarz!!
[XPERIA X10 General] njfpolyr6:
the most mysterious thing to me is the plastic cover is missing. Someone is hiding something on this, and never mentioned it. Does the phone sell as a missing plastic cover, or it got removed by force afterward? the original thread did not explain clearly and confusing everyone.......
[XPERIA X10 General] noblackthunder:
onall x10 (botj i and a !!! ) the cover is there. the cover has been removed by force . ( or factory fault ... but it dont look like a factory fault O.o ) there is no know problem with the memory or memory slot ... as long you have a base iq (what from my life experience some dont have at all .. speaking about trowing there mobiles out of the window becouse they dint solved a soduko game ...)
