I'm perfectly fine with the fact that my HTC provided headphones haven't worked, since I've rooted, but I was wondering why exactly it is that the mic stops working?
I can hear sound on them fine, even in phonecalls, but the mic just died. Is it an HTC thing? I've just always been curious.
Very cheap headset. Mine ripped apart just by dropping phone in pocket while connected.
Someone needs to make a phone that comes with quality headphones

Rooting doesn't change anything but permissions on the phone. As indicated above, its probably just a hardware failure of the headset. Try another headset.
I was testing the phones speaker last night by playing a bit of a song and maybe i'm just overreacting but I don't feel my phone is as loud Any more so does using the phones speaker at high volume decrease the phones volume?

To get the full power of external speaker, you need to have a dock station for E4GT. What I mean is something like Samsung car holder for E4GT. It has the usb connect port and speaker jack. Connect your external speaker thru this jack and turn on the settings > System > Dock > use external speaker option.
When you connect your external speaker jack to your phone's jack, the sound quality is not good because the output power is not enough to support the external speaker. Also sound quality is not good because it's amplifying the low signal to external speaker.
If the sound quality is important, using dock station would be the best way and don't use the speaker jack on the phone. Use the speaker jack on the phone adapter.
Im taking about the speaker on the phone.

It's upto you. What I tried to talk about was, who's talking the amplifying task.
1. Car dock - both phone and speaker
2. Phone speaker - nothing
3. Phone jack to external speaker - external speaker
Im so confused. Im not using a dock or anything just the phones speaker

Sorry for that. The information above was just related to listen clear music. Never mind about the dock station.
Going back to your topic, it's not clear - which one is which from the volume control in settings.
The easiest way to control all kind of volume is by installing the volume control app.
There is one app can be used to control on-call volume, speaker phone volume, almost everything. Check this link -

Not my question either.

Yes, listening to music on high gain *for an extended amount of time* will eventually bend and extenuate the speaker cone or produce small imperfections and tears, but it should not happen from one song.
One possible answer is a defective speaker. Also not all music is going to play at the same levels, due to the differing encoding types and qualities of files.
A repair store can replace just your speaker, I did it many times a day. It never hurts to go have it looked at.

Doesnt music automatically play from the phones speaker anyway? Not like its coming from the earpiece

Yes. That is the basic premise of a speaker. What did this have to do with the conversation?

Thought he was talking about the phones volume as in the earpiece volume

PS I know what "the basic premise of a speaker" is, no need to be a condescending prick.

Anyone know a solution to this? I enjoy listening to Pandora in my car and being able to take calls through my car stereo, but for some reason my mic doesn't work unless I unplug the Aux cable or put the call in speakephone.

I would like to know if it is possible to use a 3.5mm jacket external mic, plug it in my DHD and use that mic as external audio input on my phone. If it is possible, do I need any specific hardware in order to do so?
Thank you for you attention.
Are you talking about a set of headphones with a mic attached..because it probably will work

You could get any mic to work with your phone, you just need the handsfree jack and connect the wires from your mic with the ones on the jack (of course the right ones). Basically you just need to change the jack of the mic
Hey, I'm in a weird problem at present, by chance the golden tip of my earphone got stuck into the earphone jack and the technician said he couldn't take it out as its too small. So I can't hear a sound nor I can speak on phone because the nexus thinks the headphone is still plugged in, so I have to buy a new earphone jack. My questions are:
1. What will be the amount/price of a new samsung earphone (internal part with mic) jack.
2. Or is there any way of disabling the sound from the speaker and change the settings that sound is played through speakers despite the phone thinks earphones are plugged in?
Thanks in advance, please help.
