Hello, i bought a nexus 5 last week. Supposedly the phone had not working earpiece. Today i got the replacement part and changed and still is not working. I can speak via speaker or Bluetooth. Other issues are that the light and proximity sensors are not working. Also and i dont have sound true the speakers when im on a game or app. But i do have sound true calls. I already did a factory reset and installed a new room. running android l. Any help will be great
Thx
Can be a number of things not just the earpiece lol
i know it could be a number of things, so any ideas what to check. All the connections appear to be good and i dont see any broken contacts inside the phone.

I have been having some problems with the front speaker lately. Most of the time when I get an incoming call or make a call no sound comes through the front speaker and have to put the loudspeaker on to hear anything. The weird part is that from time to time it works fine usually after using the wired headphones. Oh an the volume is set to max.
Has anyone else had the same problems? How to fix this? could it be that I changed some settings inadvertantly?

Mine did not work at all any more. I even did a hard reset; no change. I have now sent it back to HTC for repairs.

Same here
Mine doesn't work at all.
Wow, I guess we should start a poll where people would select which problems they are experiencing:
1. Wi-Fi
2. BT
3. Front earphone
4. Radio
5. Bad painting
6. Shutting down suddenly
7. None of the above
More than one could be chosen... That would ballpark the size of the problem. Maybe some production batches were messed up due to the hurry from Qualcomm to deliver the already delayed parts? Maybe HTC came to that point where the brand is far larger than is the company's capacity of growing (especially in terms of QA)...

I have the same problem. The wired is that it ocassionally works. Another problem is that FM not always working. I bought the device in German. But now I'm in China. Any one knows how to fix? I don't know how to disassemble it. But I'm curious, maybe some pin is loose?
Same for me, the front speaker didn't work for 48 hours and then worked again I don't even know how
No sound speaker htc touch
I have the same problem, no sound from de phone, when switching to handsfree mode i hear de caller
Hello,
I have the same problem and found that this happened when starting an application that uses only rear speaker or hands free speaker (e.g. Tom Tom, Compe Pocket, etc.)
And the problem is not of that application, the problem is in the phone application of the cruise. I think that these applications mute or power off the front speaker and the phone application don´t activate it.
I have found a solution to this. When making or receiving a call, press many times speaker or hands free button on display and after many times, speaker works again.
Now, I am looking for a new phone application, in order to quit HTC application. Somebody knows a good phone application to use in Cruise????
Many thanks in advance.
My device has been returned today.
Have not had a chance to test it. Will do so when I get home tonight (in 8 hours). I will let you all know if it has been resolved.
As a remark to fran_mad's post; In my case, even after a FULL HARD reset, the speaker did not work.
I therefore do not think it was caused by a software problem.
Kind regards,
Robin

Motherboard has been replaced and all works OK again.
Good and quick service from HTC (free pick-up and delivery within one day)
I am still not sure if I like this one better then my good old sleek, slim and sexy Touch.
no sound from phone speaker
fran_mad's solution did not work for me.
I am affraid it's a hardware thing with me too?
I checked volume, did soft and hard resets (clear storage) but frontside speaker does not work!
HTC technical Support is going to collect my phone tomorrow. I will post my proceedings...
frontside speaker repaired
HTC Techsupport repaired my Touch Cruise within a week. Bravo!
See if it keeps working this time!
Same here. Front speaker started to fail a few times. 1 week later it totally stopped. Was repaired by HTC (EuroTwice.be) in 2 weeks.
Front speaker stopped working after 1 month usage - motherboard replaced by htc within 12 days. But now the device shuts down by itself sometimes - will send it to htc again tomorrow - meanwhile i am very disappointed about my Touch Cruise.

Hi
I have problem with the front speaker.
The sound is "blurry" if i put the caller to rear speaker the sound is crystal clear.
So the problem must be in front speaker??
I search the net but i cant find where to get it?
Is somebody have the front speaker from dead Prophet?

just wanna share with others..
my touch cruise experienced this weird problem since yesterday.i've tried fran_mad's method and and its works!! thanx dude! i'm still figuring why the heck this kind of problem happened as i didnt change any setting on my phone.
Sorry for being clueless but what do you guys mean by "front/rear speakers"? I thought there is only one speaker on the back side of the phone and a universal connector for handsfree - earphones+mic?
There are two speakers, one in front and one on the back. My front speaker died and was repaired by htc - new motherboard. Seems to be a known problem...
for some reason last night my nexus s's rear speaker stopped working, i couldnt hear music, video, or in call speakerphone at all. i flashed an old backup and magically the speaker started working. fast forward 18 hours and im back in the same predicament, i cant hear anything. does anybody have any idea what would be causing this. is my speaker busted or shorting out. i am rooted and running the latest ns collaboration in case that matters.
Bump.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
it same for me to...
can any body tell it rom problem or hardware speaker problem??
Make a Backup. Flash something else or the same thing. see if it works. If not maybe your speaker is busted
this problem is of the your device hardware
where to buy this speaker buzzer...please help me...
Hello everyone!
My external speaker suddenly stopped working. So now I cant go handsfree, I dont hear rings of incoming phones, or any sound that comes thru the external speaker.
Funnily the vibration during incoming calls doesnt come either. But it still vibrates while navigating thru menus.
I think a hardware reset might do the trick, but I cant tell before tomorrow, since I need to backup my files first.
Or is there a known bug with latest mango or a htc specific bug?
Okay vibration seems to work as it should, maybe I didnt feel it the first time I tested it.
Just now I had a moment where I heard menu sounds and then I quickly tried to play a ringtone which also came thrru the speakers but as you can guess, it stopped working again...
more update after the hardware reset tomorrow
It may just be the speaker blown out like mine did only 5 weeks after purchase. Not a big deal, the speaker is the same one as HTC EVO so a replacement part is easy to do yourself or through the Phone Carrier store (that has a repair center).
Since replacement mine has been fine since. When it was blown, it still worked, but was painful to listen to.
Ok thx. I will do that. I hoped it was some software error.
Taking my Arrive in today for the same thing. It just blew a few days ago, and any sound coming out of the external speaker just sounds distorted and garbled.
Hi there! I've bought used Nexus 5 recently, and it had issue with microphone and cracked screen. So I ordered replacements on ebay, but when I've changed daughterboard (usb, mic, etc.), the problem remains. Everything work with both daughterboards except for the mic. And yes, i tried it with different ROMs. I can't complain about unfair seller, screen was rather good.
So, my question is: may there be another reason for mic not working, or it is nothing but defective daughterboard? I don't believe in such coincidences.
Can't get another device for test now, so i need for you help.
in-call mic not working
i'm having problems with my mic also after cracking a screen and replacing the screen then I cracked the new one and a few weeks later after I installed android L my in call mic broke my speaker phone will work but not the regular one but I have yet to find any solution I have factory reset and tried multipule roms Maybe a bootloader update I know there was in call problem on the 4.4.1 update due to the bootloader needing updated but I would think my speaker phone would not work if this was the case., I was thinking about putting my stock screen back on and trying to send it back but it was a present from my step dad so it might be a pain. I will let you know if I figure something out , Is yours al mics or just in call? does speaker phone work?
Speaker works. Only in-call mic seemed to be broken.
Same issue, after updating to lollipop my mic stop working
Hi, i have the same problem.
Did you solved it in the meantime?
Hi All Friends / Technical Guys in XDA forum,
I'm facing serious issues in my Xperia Z3 mobile phone. Before one month I've purchased Xperia Z3 phone from online market. After i received the item i noticed phone doesn't work NFC function. After two days i noticed GPS also not working as well. And Battery drain in stand by mode. Now day before yesterday phone calls also not working. It means my voice doesn't hear to other party. And when i listen to music using headphones. I can hear really loud cracking noise through the both headphone speakers. Also I've changed couple of my headphones, every headphone has same issue. And WIFI really slow. I've checked WIFI from couple of wifi routers.
Issues List
NFC not working
GPS not working
WIFI slow
Huge battery drain
Can't hear my voice to other party during calls
Really huge cracking noice in headphones
Solutions that i have tried
Factory reset the phone
Flash the OS using Sony FlahTool (androxyde)
Change Marshmallows (Current OS) to Lollipop and KitKat
For WIFI I've tested using multiple routers and changed the channels in router
And checked using Speed Test, Speed test got 50+Mbps but surfing speed is daim slow
For headphones issue checked using couple of headphones
For GPS checked using GPS test, did not connect to any satellite
For calls issue tested voice test using Sony diagnostics not recording my voice
From the above solutions none of them are worked.
So guys i need to know why this happen? And what is this fault? Is it because of the defect mainbored? or other issue?
Please if you guys can tell me what is the exact issue from this details. i can replace the part if it is hardware issue.
unlock bootloader and etc
the best thing u can do unlock bootloader then flash a custom kernel and flash custom rom then wait and see it resolved or not
@John8Metallo8Corben Thanks for the reply. Actually this phone is prototype. If you can may i know what you mean by unlock bootloader? it means root the phone? And may i know about good custom roms for the Xperia Z3.
Not sure if prototype phone get software update, so maybe revert back to original firmware can help?
From xperiafirm find the oldest firmware (store or journalist firmware) and flash while wiping everything in flaahtool.
Really thanks for your reply mate. @gm007 I've checked whether it has any software update for the prototype phones, But unfortunately i haven't found it in google. And i revert back to two OSs (KitKat and Lollipop). I thought it will work but not good result. Same issues have after revert back. But after some researched i found one solution for two issues. One is about proximity sensor, other one is can't hear my voice to other party. Those issues will okay when i press the top speaker area and bottom mic area , When i lose it, again have issue. Now i will give this phone to mobile repair shop. But please let me know if you get any answer for these issues. Thanks again for your reply
Disassemble your phone and clean all the connections and contacts,maybe ur phone has swim in water.
