Weird problem, please help me!

Ok here's the story.
My Prophet is, well, an elderly.
I think it's like 5 year old.
I already had to replace touchscreen, battery and the rear speaker.
Anyway my problem now is that I don't have any sound.
Only when I recieve a call or text message I get a ringtone or notification.
Windows media player does not give sound, screen taps etc neither.
Only ringtones give sounds, through rear speaker.
Also when I get a call the earphone speakers doesn't work, the microphone does.
My earphone jack works perfectly so it isn't the audio chip that's broke.
So what i was thinking is that my phone thinks it's using an headset and redirects al sounds to my earphone jack. Only using the rear speaker for ringtones. (so maybe someone could confirm that the ringtone still rings when using an headset)
So does anybody know what the problem is or just help me on the way?
Regard, Paul
I doubt it's 5 years old! Maybe 2?...
Anyway, this is a common issue, the headphone jack is not 'releasing' the sound back to the speaker due to short / stuck connector switch. Blow down it or wiggle the plug.

ok, i was right about the headphone jack making the phone think that it was using headphones when it didn't.
I opened my phone and also opened the casing for the jackplug. I saw that a piecie op copper was bent to far and that it was causing to cancel a circuit wich made the phone think it was unsing no headphones.
When you plug in the headphones, the plug pushes away this copper piece and stops sound.
My solution was to bend the piece back so it makes contact again when the headphones are not plugged in.
Thank you for your advice, it's working great again.

Jack Connector

Hi Guys,
I just repaired my tornado, but I broke off my jack plug. I repaired it, but now the phone thinks there's a headphone plugged in (while it's not). Is there a way to force WM to play sound over the speakers instead of the jack connection?
I'm sure the speaker works (when I call myself with a landline, the ringtone goes over the speaker).

why don't you completely remove the jack plug? since you already broke it, I don't see a reason to keep it inside the phone. maybe this fixes the phone's mind.
I just did that. Without the jack plug, the problem is still the same.
I think this is very strange, because there is totally no possibility that the phone can recognize there's an headset plugged in. Maybe the plug has a little switch in it?

No headphone sound since 3.2 update.

Has anyone lost sound out of the headphone jack.
works for me running prime 1.7

any ideas what to try?
Works fine for me (running stock).
Try pulling the headphone out slowly while listening for sound. Also have you tried different headphones/speakers?
3.2 stock, headphones working perfectly fine!
isn't muted, right?

Can you get sound out of the built in speakers? are you running stock 3.2? Do you have root?
Working fine for me on my stock unit.
Working fine for me too. I'd suspect you're either muted, or the headphone jack / headphones themselves are physically damaged.
+1 for headphones & speakers working fine one Stock 3.2. As with what everyone else is saying, try to troubleshoot and make sure all of your settings are correct: known working pair of headphones, volume turned up, headphones plugged in correctly, nothing inside the headphone jack (like dust bunny), sound works through regular speakers, etc.
Then if headphones still don't work through your headphone jack, probably something coincidentally went bad around the same time as your update to 3.2.
Good luck and let us know if all goes well or if you have to RMA it..
I can play music from the speakers but when I plug in headphones I hear sound for one second then nothing, this happens with all my headphone that work on other devices.

Sounds like your speaker jack might be bunk. But have you tried to wiggle it while the headphones are plugged into the jack? Maybe the headphone jack has a broken solder joint and if you wiggle it, you can make a connection. If this works, then you know the headphone jack inside is broken.
Then I'd called Asus and have them issue an RMA.

Do you get an indication in your notification area that headphones are plugged in? It should pop up in the lower right the moment you plug in your headphones saying 'Audio jack connected- audio jack is plugged in'.
Bestbuy replaced it for me, YEA no wait.

[Q] 3.5mm jack problem? Doesnt Detect Headset but works..

About a Week ago My headphone jack just randomly stopped detecting when I had my headphones plugged in. I Tried all kinds of different headphones and ear buds. Nothing works and sound just keeps coming out from the speakers. I then downloaded Toggle Headset 2 from market and I can hear sound from my headphones again! BUT on the top where its supposed to show you that headphones are plugged in, it doesnt. Also changing Equalizer setting with DPS Manager doesnt work because it doesnt know theirs headphones plugged in so things get annoying. I Tried different Roms and Same Thing. So is my jack pretty much effed? or is their hope?
Edit: To Clear things up more, YES I do get sound with Toggle App but Phone still doesnt know headphones are plugged in. Cant Change EQ setting to my liking because of this. >,<
its possible the jack itself could have gotten damaged somehow and not making proper contact with the headphones. try putting some electrical grease(like those $0.99 spark plug grease pouches they sell at auto parts stores). if it then works with that, that means you'll either have to keep using that stuff or get the jack replaced.
