YAY! My sound stopped working!! Help!
 

As if my day couldnt get any worse..
friggin earspeaker and rear speaker doesnt work..
checked the settings, hard resetted the phone, NOTHING. DEAD.

although, i do get sound through the jack with my wired earphone/mic

has there been any consistant issue of this? maybe a fix?
im really hesitant to open this thing up when i can just buy a BT headset.

i dont have a bluetooth headset yet, so im guessing this is my next route.
so is there a certain brand or model i should go after? I have a smaller sized head and ears.

im probably gonna do another rom upgrade just in case as a last resort..

okay, polargoat.. the sound is back after the 1.41 radio upgrade..
but im thinking its going to be intermittant because it didnt work immediately after it, i started playing around with the lower jack and my wired earphone/mic piece and the sound came back after i pulled it out..

im using helmi 3.5 r4 custom rom
ive even reflashed, and hard resetted a couple times but the sound didnt come back until now.. weird. i think im still gonna go for a bt headset although i dread another device that needs to be recharged, bt draining the batt on the phone, etc etc..

ive got the oem sprint rom "APA_SPCS_20600_303_12700_WWE_Ship.exe"
is this suitable or will it overwrite the 1.41 radio i just upgraded to?

i've seen a lot of this happening, just the connectors in the plug will short, and no audio through the speakers, so then you have to play with the plug to get sound to work again.

My 1.41 radio is magic! lol

whoa whoa whoa.. hold on now..

i downgraded to the sprint rom as noted above.
updated the radio
then cooked my own custom rom with hemi r4.
hard reset after all those.

i hard reset and sprint is downloading and installing those garbage cabs!
what the crap, it never did this before.

EDIT: nevermind, all that garbage was still in the ext rom from the oem sprint install, so i deleted all of it and am upgrading the helmi.. see what happens, prolly mess it all up.

EDIT2: SHEESHZUS christ!! its doing it again!! make it stop!

EDIT3: okay, i erased everything out of ext rom again, hard reset and its not installing the garbage.. now im just paranoid about lingering files or it doing it again without notice..

ahh okay!! thanks alot!
yep sound is working!

im having the same problem!!! i judt got my 6700 2 days ago and the damn speaker phone/ dinger done not work!! its like useless...

it worked fine then in flashed clean and simple aku 3.5 thenn yea nada.. i reflashed the oem sprint rom and it still odd... the odd thing is the sound will work for a sec then go out again.. any i tryed radio 1.41 all tho id did help with my bars it didnt fix my sound help!!

arrrrggg! Now I've been having this problem the last few days.

Same isssue as you guys - no sound - and none via bluetooth either.

WTF!!!?

hmmm, interesting.

Yeah this really sucks - I'd say my 6700 is finally dead.

I don't have any external sound whatsoever. Nothing from the wired earpiece, the bluetooth, or the built-in external speaker.
The only sound I do hear is from the earpiece on the phone itself - so if someone calls I can hold the phone up to my ear and hear them - but to top everything else off the mic doesnt work either...so basicly the damn thing is useless now.

If I try to play some music or use the speaker I DO hear some static, but that's it.

I tried to reinstall the offical 2.2 AKU from Sprint (both the CE and Radio) and still nothing.

I dunno - it almost seems like it could be that stooopid little slidy volume control thingy on the left side of the phone.

The whole thing is strange though - it just started doing it on and off for a day or two - and now its completly soundless.

Damnit - I guess I can go buy a 6800 or something but damnit I even just bought a BT GPS and all kinds of goodies for this thing a few days ago.

If anyone has any other ideas I'm all ears - I really like the phone I hate to see it dead because of this...
