I can't answer such a generic question without more information. First, I'm going to assume you mean the earpiece, not the external. Next, I'm going to assume it's STOCK EC05 rooted. So based on that assumption, you likely don't believe you've done anything to your Epic that would cause this kind of error. Then I'm going to take it that, either your question is rhetorical and you believe you have a hardware issue, or you believe that either EC05 or rooting is the cause and you're asking if anyone has had any similar problem with EC05.
I can say that I don't know of any similar problem with rooting or EC05. But seeing as you don't mention whether you're even stock or custom, or whether this problem arrived before or after you rooted, no one will be able to compare their situation to yours. Please enclose better information. The following are my generic solutions:
1. Download Sound Manager and attempt to tweak hidden sound settings.
2. Flash or re-flash a ROM (as I don't know if you're custom or not to begin with).
3. Odin to stock or stock-rooted EB13.
4. Head to your nearest Sprint repair store.
You can find links to everything you need for a fresh start in my signature.

Same issue
All notification sounds and ringtones play through the earpiece instead of the speaker
I had the issue on stock rom figured rooting would fix it.
It did for a couple days and then everything went back to playing through the earpieces as if I was on the phone.
I use a bluetooth car kit often and Im wondering if that has anything to do with it
There may be a simple fix for you. This has happened to me a few times when I have plugged up my Epic to wired headphones. Something about disconnecting can sometimes cause the phone to think it is still outputting sound to the headphones, so you cannot hear sound anymore . . . even with a restart. A simple fix is just to plug in a headphone jack again and remove again. This has fixed this issue for me numerous times.
Lost my sound today
Took the above advise and plugged in a wired headset then unplugged. Worked like a charm...for about 2 hours...then happened again. No matter what I try now, cant get sound again.
B4 u ask:
Been CleanGB/BML w/o any mods or themes for long time.
Havent installed any new apps in days.
No OC/UV
Sounds are fine in wired headset
BT works.
Cleared DV cache and reboot > no fix
ODIN'ed stock EC05 > no fix
---this tells me its not the os, but why did it work after plug/unplug headset?
Yes, Sprint store just down the street, but I love a challenge Anyone?
Same problem. Works fine if I plug in an audio out. But did ring for instant messages for about a day. So speaker does work. Wonder if I should go with the kernel that was orginally flashed with cm9?

There are two different issues being reported here.
One being, sounds come out of the ear piece and not the speaker (e.g. ring tone during incoming call can be heard with phone up to your head).
The other being no sound at all, unless you connect to the headphone jack.
The latter I would suspect to be a HW problem (loose internal speaker connection maybe?).
The former would be an audio routing issue I've experienced myself (usually related to BT, speaker-phone, etc).
A simple reboot should fix the routing issue (has for me a few times).
=]
If u Odin back to stock and it still doesn't work then its probly hardware. I tried everything thinking it was sw but ended up replacing the speaker.

I have the exact same issue, if I plug in headphones it will work through speaker, nothing connected it thinks headphones are connected. I have to jam a eyelet from my shoes in there, and connect it to bluetooth to hear audio...
So I ain't the only one...
Went back to stock, same difference, nothing I know will correct it...

This is a known phenomenon I've seen a thread here before where the headphones are reversed... like it think the headphones are plugged in when they aren't.... dunno what causes it but its certainly not too abnormal.

Wrong forum, this is galaxy s1 epic 4g with keyboard.
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, so please excuse me if I'm off-section/off-topic.
I bought an OEM Car Dock for my T-989 (also one for my wife's Galaxy S 4G), only to find out that the Call Audio was going through the phone speakerphone, instead of the Car Speakers.
After some research I found out that this wasn't an out-of-the-box feature, but one that had to be cooked in a KERNEL.
I also found out that this a known issue on all Samsung Galaxy phones, and after browsing Google and this wonderful forums, I found a "cure" on the "Captivate" section, which is this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916233
I wonder if a similar solution could be implemented on our Kernels?
Thanks in advance!
Nobody interested in this? Unbelievable. It's a problem with all the Samsung phones/docks.
do you have Audio output mode checked in settings/docksettings checked?
App
I had this problem on my Vibrant. There is a app on the market that redirect the sound for you. It's called galaxy sound redirector. https://market.android.com/details?...xLDEsIm5ldC5tdXRlaGVhZGxpZ2h0LmRvY2tyZWRpciJd
This was an issue on the original galaxy s line. I thought they had it fixed on our phone. I can not confirm this I don't have the new phone dock. It should work for your wife.

I just picked up the dock last night and the audio was playing through the phones speaker. Did a quick Google search on the phone (car was parked in drive-way) and found that you need to go into SETINGS/DOCK SETTINGS.

We dealt with this on the Jugs thread because I originally thought it was a bug with Juggs and tried to bring it Whitehawk's attention. But we later discovered like you guys did that it's actually a setting that needs to be enabled! No problem with the car dock!

I have the same issue. I have 2010 toyota with oem bluetooth and i can pair fine with it and play songs do skype calls (which works on car phone) but when i have actual call it pauses everything and i have to use the phone speaker to talk the person. Very annoying i reflashed couple of times. Played with dock settings with no luck. So I now carry my cute lil handsets and plug it in when i get a call or avoid taking calls at all when driving LOL
Hey maybe its designed this way LOL
I will be following this thread hopefully something can be done !

Yes, only calls. Somebody said that it had to be enabled in a kernel.
Music plays fine through the car speakers.
We should demand (delicately lol) from our devs to cook this feature in their kernels.
Guise, don't let this die...
I've been wondering the same thing as well. When I first got the dock audio for calls & notifications were going through the car speakers but once I flashed a custom kernel that went away (all other audio works fine). I don't see a flashable stock kernel in the dev forum & I don't have ODIN here at work so I'll test it out over the weekend.

Ah thats good news.. i flashed it right away so i dont know if it worked with stocked one or not i do have a backup from ODIN might try to restore and see if that works.
Can moderator move this to dev area .. so we can get some light on this subject from devs?
I have a stock SGS2, and the OEM dock. I use CarHome Ultra for my default Car Mode App. I also have my SGS2 paired with my cars BT. All of my calls route through my BT, but phone audio routes through speaker. I changed this setting in my BT menu to route only call audio to BT and not system audio. CarHome Ultra is also setup using its defaults for audio routing.
Hope this helps

This was originally on "Dev", it was moved here. Although I understand the reason why, I also vote for this to be moved to the Dev section, this having to do with custom kernel modification.
Just my humble opinion, of course.
I forgot to mention that I flashed a custom Kernel, specifically the "Synergy v0.10". If anyone fully-stock could confirm that call audio is routing through car speakers would be great.
No answers yet?
This is driving me crazy, why did Samsung design this phone so that all audio EXCEPT phone calls would go through the car dock!?!?!!?
Surely someone who knows something about developing is as annoyed as us!
I wish I could fix it - going to do some research here!
PS I vote that this gets moved to DEV section too... this is beyond just a Q and A... and more of a mission to solve!!

Hello all --
I'm trying to check if a problem I'm having with my S3 is hardware or software (and see therefore if it's possible to fix.)
If you're running a custom ROM and have a car with Bluetooth and a stereo with an Aux in:
-Connect your phone to the stereo via the proper cable and start listening to music
-Turn on Bluetooth
Try to make a call (or receive one) via Bluetooth.
With the stock firmware, the music cuts off when a call comes in or goes out, but you can't hear the caller (and they can't hear you).
I'd like to know if this is the case with custom ROMs for the S3, or if it's a unique problem with the stock software.
Thanks for your help!
Can anyone confirm? Seems like a pretty common issue, but I can't get Samsung or Sprint to give an answer on whether it can be fixed or not...

i can try to verify this in either a couple hours or tomorrow morning at latest.
Does not happen for me, but I am running custom rom. FreeGS3
Thanks Naddict -- so you can listen to music via the headphone jack and make calls over bluetooth at the same time? Good to know -- and it gives me hope that hands-free calling may be possible on my S3.

Hi all,
After an extensive search around the web and these forums I have not found a solution to my problem. In a weak moment, I spilled a small amount of water on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus and my internal microphone was broken as a result. The broken microphone left me with a horrible static sound during calls and the person on the other end unable to hear me. However, when I use the phone on speakerphone, calls work fine. I'm assuming this is because the speakerphone uses a different mic (i.e. the camera mic?). I've thoroughly tested to make sure that the microphone is broken by wiping completely, going all the way back to stock 4.0, and checking the microphone on each of the following iterations of Android. I went to Verizon and had my SIM card swapped out to no avail. After the problem failed to fix itself, I re-rooted and am now running CM 10.1.
Anyway, as a user of Groove IP for my calls, I started messing around with the settings and found that it allows me to change the default microphone during calls. It allowed me to force the phone to use the camera mic rather than the internal mic and, alas, it worked! I'm sure the quality on the other end is not quite as good but it's the best I'll be able to do at this point. Now, here comes the MOD request.. I'm wondering if any of the amazing devs that frequent this forum could take a look through the source code and see if they can force my phone to use the camera mic all the time (via a flashable zip?). This would allow me to use it not only during calls but throughout my system as well (i.e. voice search, text to speech). This would really extend the life of my device and I'd love to buy somewhere a beer or two for helping me out.
If you want to see how Groove IP does it, the mic source settings are in Groove IP (lite or pro) troubleshooting section of the settings. Thanks in advance!

Im preety sure thats a software glitch you have there my friend the speaker and normal phone use the same microphones as far as i am aware. The reason it may work in speaker phone only is because the galaxy nexus has a microphone on the top and bottom of the handset. Which mic is not working. I need specifics.
Hmmm... Okay, I didn't know it uses a second mic other than for noise cancellation. I was assuming it was the bottom mic, and I test it by using the Sound Recorder app and all I get is static. I can record videos with audio just fine, which is how I know the camera mic works. It would certainly be a curious software issue, considering the problems occurred immediately after the water damage, but I'm open to it. How do you think I can test the different internal mics to see which one is/isn't working?

From what I know now it sounds like a hardware issue. I highly recommend buying a replacement. Im not quite sure what youy expect from a mod or something. Could you explain. Ill try to help as best I can.
p.s. also I just posted my new project HERE for the galaxy nexus and im not sure if the download link works for anyone but me on my google drive. would you mind at least testing the downlod link for me? Thanks!

here this might help: replacement mic
Well that replacement mic could certainly be an option, I appreciate the link. I can also confirm that your download works as well.
But what I'm looking for is this, some sort of mod that will deactivate the broken (internal mic) and tell the phone to automatically use the camera mic in all situations in which a mic would be needed. Basically tell the phone it only has the one mic. I'm not sure if this is possible or even plausible, but I appreciate your help either way.

You will need a special sort of mod. Im not sure if there are any out there. I could take a look into making one for you, if you like (no garuntees).
P.S. Thanks for trying the link.
Anything you can do would be greatly appreciated.. Even if you get in there and decide it's too much work, that's fine. If it won't work then maybe I'll try that replacement mic, though I'm not sure I have the steady hands or the technology to pull off a job like that.

You can replace the mic for under $15 so it isnt too bad price wise. Do a google search locally for computer or phone shops. You can often time get them to replace it for like $50, but its garunteed to be properly installed. Doing it yourself isnt very hard if you have a good instruction ste and the proper tools.
Yeah, that would definitely be better than getting a new device before I'm ready. Thanks.

So I replaced the USB and mic to no avail... The same problem persists. Major static on phone calls until set to speaker phone and nothing but static recorded with the sound recorder. I suppose it's a problem with another piece of hardware or actually a software issue. I've rooted, un rooted, wiped, and wiped some more, so I'm suspicious it's a hardware issue.
Is it possible or even plausible to make a (flashable) mod that tells my device to only use the camera microphone (or the other mic?) for all situations in which a mic is required? I'd be willing to throw a beer or two (or whatever your poison) your way as this would really extend the life of my device.

I have the same exact issue!
I've been looking everywhere for the past month to find anyone else with this problem... I can't believe i missed this post somehow. For me it started after i put my head to my phone after a shower. I wasn't sure it was from this as i had recently started using a new ROM as well as an extended battery from Hyperion.
I have attempted replacing both the headset speaker ( the one used when you put the phone to your ear) which includes the second microphone and that didn't help, and i just tried replacing the microphone and that didn't help either.
I have also attempted going to earlier ROMs and that didn't help.
I have been wondering if flashing a different radio may help, though i figured it probably is not related to the radio as the calls sound fine on the speaker mode. Have you discovered anything else with your phone?

I should also note that since I first notice this issue, I also noticed my phone slow to detect the charger after plugging it in. Instead of it being to charge almost immediately after plugging it in, it take about 10-15 seconds before it detects it. This problem persisted even after replacing the micro usb component.

I also had the same issue with my Samsung galaxy s4 I thought it was a software glitch but finally figured it out as a hardware issue.my bottom calling mic is broken but top mic is working via speaker mode so I am looking for the same solution.if you got any kindly reply that will be greatly appreciated.
Sorry if this is a repeat, I couldn't find this issue.
When I plug in the headphone jack there is no recognizable audio. Fiddling with the AUX cord plugged into the phone produces buzzing and popping.
I thought it might be a hardware problem so I tried a new ROM and then problem went away. So I figured it was just that ROM.
But the next time I plugged into the audio jack the problem had returned. I tried a couple more ROMs with an identical result. Basically after each fresh install it works for like one attempt.
Does anyone know how I can determine if this is a hardware issue or not (flash stock and unroot then try?) and then how to proceed from there?
Thanks!

I would honestly return that phone for another one. That sounds like a hardware issue with the jack itself or the sound chip.
Hey I'm having just about the same problem as you are with my headphones.
Can you possibly try something for me, I am running a TW from nun hugger with the preus kernel. There is a app that comes with the room where you can make adjustments to the sound output. See if you can decrease output and if that takes away the crackling.

Hey just wanted to add a screen shot of what I was talking about.

Ok so I'm running Jedi X. There is an app called Voodoo Sound which seems to have the same setting your talking about. I turned them down and nothing seemed different.
Next I turned them all the way down (headphone amplifier: -57db and volume limit: -57db)
Then I tried to play an audio book. This time I hear buzzing with each word. Its also clear now that you are in fact listening to someone speak (even though I still cant make anything out) before I would only hear a random buzz and would mostly hear silence in between the buzzing and crackling.
Just a couple q's:
Have you tried different headphones? Maybe a dual 3.5mm cord to some speakers?
Are you pushing the headphones in all the way? (I didn't my first time)
What type of headphones are you using?
Last, is the jack loose (wobly/free floating).
I have a pair of older samsung headphones that somehow got snagged and the wire was pulled partially apart on the inside. When I use them I have the same problem that you are describing. They also produce a lot of static electricity and shock my ears while using them lol.

Hey leptone,
I tried voodoo as well but if you've tried what Brad was mentioning about making sure your headphones weren't buggered
I would highly recommend trying the Presues kernel with any other rom just because saber and Jedi are built together.
Try skynote or the Alliance rom (novella dos), or any other TW rom.
Now I'm not saying anything against the Jedi dev. I ran his rom on my phone for a week before I saw that Sean was developing for this phone, and even then I had saber as my kernel of choice. It's just the fact that even though we all run the same phone and hardware there are slight variations and to find the best setup you will have to put some effort in to try the combinations.
