No sound from external speaker - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was using my phone and it suddenly quit playing sound from the external speaker. Headset still works fine. I have reflashed, that didn't help. I wiped and flashed again and still nothing. I am thinking it is hardware but before I send it in I wanted to see if anyone has any ideas on what could be going on.

This may be stupid but you're phone isn't silenced is it? Any audio mods? What ROM are you flashing?

reboot if this doesn't work downgrade to jf

I figured it out, it's a hardware issue. Tmobile is sending me out a replacement unit.

Crackling Speaker - Need Help!!!

I am having quite an interesting problem with my Kaiser. Yesterday, after doing a hard reset on Dutty's new WM6.1 ROM, my external speaker seemed to have stopped working.
I can make calls, and hear the other party through the phone speaker, but I cannot hear my phone ring, mp3s, screen taps, or the speakphone. Basically, any sound that is supposed to come out of my external speaker does not work. Sometimes I hear crackling, and some faint distorted sound, but this last for 5 seconds, and then all sound stops. If I'm on a phone call, everything is ok and I can speak and hear whoever I am talking to, but the second I turn the speakerphone on, sound will stop or crackle then stop.
I did a hard reset, and got nothing. Reflashed the ROM, same problem. Flashed to a different radio, same problem. Then I flashed back to the original HTC ROM and radio, and still have the same problem.
Obviously, I am thinking its a hardware problem. Their weird thing is that I haven't dropped my phone or done anything different to it. It spent the entire day in my pocket. Since I'm in Canada and cannot purchase the phone here, I bought it from a third party through eBay and therefore do not have warranty. I will probably take it to a local phone repair shop tonight, but I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem, or if anyone has any suggestions as to how to fix it.
Any help or input would be appreciated. Thanks a lot!

HELP speaker in G1 not working, but works with headphones.

I have been on the forums for a while and I can't figure this problem out. My speaker for ringers and hearing audio in a call work perfectly.The audio speaker doesn't work properly unless I have a headset plugged in, so when I'm in a call I have to were the head set so that else can hear me. I have tried wiping and flashing; this worked for one call the next call back to nothing. I have flashed different ROM's and nothing seems to work. If I posted in the wrong section let me know and tell me where to post.

If you have wiped and tried different roms and the problem still exists sounds like a hardware issue. Call T-Mobile or HTC to get it fixed.
Hi,
My friend is experiencing the same thing.
did you manage to solve this issue?
does speaker phone work?
No, speakerphone does not work
I must add this happened after updating to Donut (official), and wiping didn't help. Before that - it was working fine
so let me get his straight. speaker phone and music does not work but ring tones do?
No, nothing involving the speaker works. No ringtones, no mp3, nothing.
Happened just after upgrading to Donut.
I managed to get it working by plugging and uplugging headphones, but that was temporary and now this workaround doesn't work anymore
I do get audio only by headphones. Call audio is working ok
yeah this is a hardware problem. my mic randomly went out a while back i had to send it in they should fix it depending in when it was bought. it going out about the same time as donut is just bad timing.

[HELP] Earpiece No Sound. Using loud speaker to make calls

I need help. My tytn 2 's earpiece/speaker is dead suddenly. I just remember I receive a call in the morning which is still working fine. Then suddenly in the afternoon it's totally dead. I still can use the loud speaker or headphone, but the main primary speaker is dead.
I have perform several hardreset, and flashed the new radio and finally a new ROM.
Is there anything I can do ?
same problem occured a month before... does anybody know how to deal with that?
u still haven fix it? I tried everything, drain the batt, flash diff radio, flash the rom.....
It should be a hardware related problem
The problem is... earpiece speaker. I've opened the phone and found that one of speaker's legs is broken.
Oh no! Yeah my phone does the same thing now.
Flashed a new radio and rom....Hard and soft reseted...still no sound in call but only on speaker..
I was really hoping it was a software related issue. Does anyone else have experience with this?
It normaly is hardware issue. But that is no bigger problem. Just get a new earpiece for some $ in the web open your Kaiser and exchange them. It isn't a realy hard work but you should know some basic things about your Kaiser so that you don't do something wrong. There is information on how to change the earpiece in the service manuals of some devices. Maybe that helps too.

Bottom speaker not working anymore

Hi,
since yesterday, the bottom/right speaker of my Moto G 2014 (Stock 4.4.4, not rooted) doesn't work anymore. When there should be stereo sound, only the left channel is audible through the top/left speaker.
Already tried rebooting the phone, didn't make any difference. I don't remember doing anything out of the ordinary that could have caused this. Hopefully it's not a hardware defect since the phone is just a few weeks old.
Has anyone else here already had this issue? If you need more info or have any idea what I could try out, please let me know!
Well, the external speakers shouldn't work that way.
Unless its faulty...... which I think it is.
Does the headphone jack work allright ??
Oh, I forgot to mention that. Headphones are working just fine on both sides.
So I also guess the speaker is faulty. Maybe I should wait for the Lollipop update, see if it changes anything?
Edit:
Tried rebooting in safe mode and cleaning the cache partition. No effect whatsoever...

Help Needed with sound problem

I have been using my G Play Mini running nougat Aospa ROM 7.3.0 . Everything was fine. I used the alarm clock,music and video apps regularly,and suddenly all the sounds of my phone does not work. First I thought it was only the microphone as It would not record any sound on my voice notes but then I tried to make a phone call and to play music and speakers would not work also. After that I tried plugging in my headphones and the phone would detect earplugs connected but neither the sound or mic works. I reinstalled the stock firmware from 4.4 to 6.0 and nothing.Though i found out when playing FM radio in loud speaker mode, the rear speaker worked fine. Nonetheless, its pretty weird all the speaker and mic stopped working at the same time.Bluetooth speaker works fine though. I even tried using various apps to boost the sound but still at zero. When i try playing music there seems to be a noise like hissing sound and after sometime the area around speaker gets hot. It has been troubling me for days. I even took it to customer care for help, but they returned it to me back saying it cant be repaired.
Has anyone other faced this problem ? Any help or suggestions would be gladly appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestions, i tried like 10-15 apps to boost sound or amplifiers and to check if any of the hardware part was not working or not. Everything was on sound condition. but no sound. that was until 3 days ago. i tried to change the sim to another phone and restarted it, was working for a minute and then it went dead. Currently on the workshop trying to figure out what happened after i did everything i could at home. No charging, no forced updates when buttons pressed nothing. I jst want it to be working cause its one of my fav device. will get back here if i get it working again.
