I have never posted here before but this is bugging me. I am using a rooted zeki tablet and a little while back my internal speaker just stopped working. I didn't worry about that much until my headphone jack came un soldered. I was think the 2 might have been related but when I completely removed the jack my problem persisted. I have used numerous apps to turn the headset switch off and nothing. The wires are fine it seems I have rebooted, factory reset and most things I can think of. I'm stuck...
Zeki speaker issue
I believe the headphone jack could be your issue. The tablet looks at the state of the jack to see if there's a headphone plugged in. And diverts accordingly.

Yesterday I had my phone connected to my car stereo through the headphone jack. I was using Pandora then got a phone call, I unplugged the cable and NO SOUND! None from the ear piece or the external speaker. The person on the other end could hear me, but i could not hear them, tried speaker phone on and off. I rebooted the phone twice, and pulled the battery also. I did get sound back after I plugged the cable back in and removed it again and everything worked fine. Just wondering if anybody else has had something like this happen.
So I've been using the Nexus S for a while now(about 3 months). And the other day, after I plugged in the headphones to listen to music, the external speaker stopped working after I unplugged them.
It worked intermittently afterwards but then stopped all together.
I was wondering if anyone else experienced this same issue and if there is a fix for it other than sending my phone back to Samsung for a repair.
I think it's got to be a short in the headphone jack or something sticking since it was intermittent. That's the only thing I can think of since it hasn't been dropped at all.
Any help or a link to the rear speaker module part so I can do a direct replacement would be great.
Thanks in advance folks!
Have you tried plugging the headphones back in, then out again? This used to happen to my laptop, however since you said the speaker was intermittent I'm also thinking it may be a completely different issue.

This happened to mine and i found out it was some rubbish stuck in the earphone plug so maybe try somehow cleaning it out ,,, if not then maybe its faulty somewhere.
Mine happened the same. It started hearing the speaker's sound very rare and then it stopped working.... But then I blow into the speaker and the sound came back....
Yeah at this point after cleaning the headphone jack, and even tried blowing into the speaker I'm lust looking to replace the speaker part. No just the ribbon with the front speaker as well, but I am specifically looking for a replacement part for the speaker enclosure unit. So if anyone has any idea where i would pick it up, let me know or shoot me a link to it.
Thanks for the advice folks!

When I have a headphone plugged in, I can hear the songs, however the volume randomly fluctuates between quiet and loud on the left side. However after testing the pair of Sony Piiq's I own, I have come to the conclusion that the headphones perform perfectly fine. Thus leaving the phone as an issue. I was wondering if this was a software or hardware problem. If so is there an easy way to replace the audio jack?
Hardware issue. I have the same problem. The input jack where you would plug in a 3.5mm headphone cable tends to make the sound go quiet when the cord is pushed one direction. Quite annoying at times if the cord gets pushed alot. When I say cord i mean the male end of the cable that you physically plug in. For some Roms, I think mostly HTC. This problem with the input jack will cause the phone to think its using voice command it will trigger that or it will call and hang up on the last call you had. Weird huh. I've noticed this for some time now and I just got use to it. If your phone is under warranty, have it sent back and get it fixed from the manufacturer.
Hi guys,
Just a few days back I realized when I plugged in my headphones, I kept on hearing loud static noise through it. I thought my headphone might have a problem, so I tried my earphone and same. Both work just fine when plugged into my laptop.
Without headphones, my tablet plays sounds OK, but since this incident there is evident tearing occurring.
Can anyone figure out or guess what the problem (and remedy) may be?
Thanks very much!
Hi,
the left channel on the headphone jack is not working.
First I thought it's just dust or litter so I cleaned the jack.
Since that didn't help I bought a replacement headphone jack, opened up the phone and changed it.
But the problem is still there.
(Now I'm hearing a very very low signal on the left channel. (It's only noticeable when I take out the right earplug in a silent room.))
Of course I also tried different headphones. Same result.
Audio over USB-C or bluetooth works fine.
What else could be the problem?
I'd say it's damaged board
