Hi guys,
Since a few days, for some reason my phone automatically turns on the speaker when I either make a phone call or am being called. I tried turning off the car mode auto-launch and I downloaded a free app called Car Mode which also didn't work.
I also searched some other forums, it seems that this is a common issue on the normal Desire. Some people state it's a hardware related problem, others say it's software related.
Does anyone know what's happening here?
Thanks
When your phone is on call, and you flip your phone over face down, the speaker would activate. Please use the search before posting for god sake.

I have tried during call a few times but it did not switch to speaker mode.....why ?
audio defaults to speaker
this has just started happening for me too... hence coming across your post...
feel like a **** sometimes when I pickup my phone and put it to my ear to start talking and the voice blasts out the speaker instead
Did you find a solution?? I'll post back here if I find a solution....
On another note.... thanks for the help LittleJerc...

solution...for me anyway
I feel like a little bit of a LitteJerc now myself... I just restarted my phone and phone calls dont automatically go through the loud speaker anymore... why didnt I try that before.... the classic 'have you turned it off and on again'.....
See if that works for you!!??

All of the sudden I can't hear caller voice, but when I put on speaker then everything is ok. I then switch back to regular mode and can't hear. As if I am on mute. Anyone have the same problem? or help me pin the problem. The phone rings fine.
Please help the old guy out geniuses.
Thanks in advance
hi,
i think that your problem is not software but hardware...it happend to me...just the little speaker broked....you have to change that or you can use with bluetooth headset....
Keep in mind that this is my experiene , i don't know if it be the same for you..but i think so
How many speaker are there on the phone? I thought only one right? the music, handfree speaker is fine. If there are more than one speaker, please direct me a site where I can order it. Thanks
For some reason, I think this is more software problem then hardware. The phone is in my case and never drop and taking really good care of it.
Hi!
I have same issues here.
I think there is a rom problem or somenthing like that...
Here I have to reset.. make alot of calls to test .. raise de volume up.. change speaker and works... its really annoying.
BTW.. I was using Cloudy 1.3 and was flawlessly. Changed to Gen.Y D2 R2 , issue is back .. =(
I think it's a software problem.Have you installed any software like codec or some other audio/sound application?If so try to uninstall it and resart your device.If not try a hard reset.

i believe there are 2 speakers in diamond, one is for ringer and speaker phone the other is for calling.
try switching back to Cloudy 1.3 and see if problem still exist?
if there are then your speaker is broken otherwise it's the rom problem.
Guys, just FYI the same issue appears when you install SRS WOW HD sound driver v1.5.1. Version 1.2.1 was working smoothly on diamond, but once i installed this new one, all sounds are mute for some reason and once i uninstalled it again, it was back to normal. Don't know if this will help, anyways with this issue you don't hear anything (ringer, alarm, caller)...
Actually I had the same problem, it was the internal speaker giving problems... u might hve to give it in for repairs if u can....
Hearing aid batterys? lol
I also have this problem... I believe that some of the ROMs that I've installed before set the speaker volume too high which resulted in the speaker blowing. I suggest you either send the phone in for repairs or search for software on XDA which turns the speakerphone on automatically when you make calls, that's how I get around this. You just put it by your ear like normal and you can still hear the phonecall =) Seems like HTC uses really crappy speakers in their phones...
I went into setting to check off the box where it says turn over phone to use speakers or something similar, when i am in a call i put the phone face down all i see is a green light on the little microphone thingy next to the speaker, nothing from the back speaker at all.
I thought you supposed to be able to do speaker phone by just placing the phone face down, help?

Yes, works well for me.
Must be placed flat down on a table or something similar.
Might want to double check, its checked in settings>personal >phone>advanced settings. Once call is initiated it takes a second or 2 for the speaker phone to ramp up the volume.
Great conference call phone in this mode. 2 speakers, 2 microphones.
my speakerphone does work like it's supposed to.
I do have another issue with Straight Talk though involving the To/CC options in emails. They aren't there. I created a thread, but put it in the wrong forum & no mod has switched it over to here yet.

i have figured out why, the gyrator thing is f'ed up when i tried to install something, just had to recalibrate it.
Hi guys, I did a search in this Arc forum for In ear Speaker problems and couldn't find anything, so I chose to start a new thread. Just know I DID try to find info for this phone but I only found a few other threads about different phones.
My in-ear speaker does not work in calls. It is extremely quiet, as if the volume is turned all the way down. Thing is, I try turning up the in-call volume during a call and it does nothing. But the weird thing is, I went into the service menu to test the hardware (using the *#*#7378423#*#* trick) and tested the in-ear speaker and it works fine! Loud and clear! But then immediately following that I'll try a call and still will hear practically nothing. Putting the call on speakerphone allows me to hear the other party, as well as putting in a headset, so I am stumped. Tried pulling the battery and have rebooted the phone many times and the problem is still persisting.
AND, on top of ALL of that, the damn thing was working just fine the other day. I switched to this phone last week and have been making calls successfully being able to hear the other party just fine. But suddenly today it's deciding to not work in a call. This is really weird.
Has anyone else had this problem? What else can I try to fix it? Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
EDIT: Blah a hard reset fixed it. Feel free to delete this post mods!

Its very difficult to diagnose this problem, so rather would suggest you to take it to Service Center and get it checked could be Mic problem(Hardware issue) or you could backup your data do a factory reset and try once.
I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted to ask you whether it was a hardware problem or not and whether you fixed it or not (and how). My brother is suffering from the exact issue. The other end hears him well only when he's on speaker or using any headphones with a mic. Volume in voice recordings in WhatsApp is also very low.
same here
Hi,
I am suffering from the same issue as described here.
I belief the Note 2 has 2 microphones. During taking a call the one at the Home button is active which seems broken.
The other one on the top is active in loudspeaker mode, which still works.
In regular phone mode, the caller hears me a little if background noise supression is deactivated.
I tried several ROMs since I beliefed I must be a software issue. Now I think it just is a broken mic.
Since I changed my mid-frame I belief my warranty is gone.
Hope you are in better luck.
I keep having phone calls where I can't hear the other person and vice versa. Seems to be related to my Bluetooth connection to a Gear S3 as disabling Bluetooth usually fixes it (but then sometimes it randomly sides itself with Bluetooth on and I haven't done detailed testing).
I'm on Fi, but have been for awhile and never had this problem with my previous phone... I am using the software sim.
Anyone else experiencing similar, or know anything about it?

Make sure under the phone app that the hearing aid accessibility option is off

It's off. I should add, there's not even the sound of the ring, just dead silence and the timer starts, then eventually a disconnect. That's making me think the audio is being sent somewhere besides the speaker (even though the icon says speaker).

I get that to from time to time. It's as if the audio is routed to my watch but nothing actually comes out of the watch.

If your not connected to anything (Bluetooth) and the volumes are maxed out and you have nothing, it's RMA time. Have you tried the good ol' factory reset? Last resort

Interesting thought, though it definitely feels like software to me so I'm not rma'ing just yet.

I legit have the EXACT same issues. I also have a Gear S3. It only happens the first time I call, and then, if I hang up and call the number right back, it's a normal phone call. Have you figured out a fix yet? It's really a nuisance. Thanks in advance!

Seems better after the last two Tizen updates, but honestly I don't make enough phone calls to be certain.
Go to Bluetooth setting and choose ur watch setting and disable phone calls should fix it,i have huawe watch 2 and same problem.
