BB Storm 9500 :: Sound From Only 1 Speaker Of Phone?
Apr 11, 2010
I have a dumb question.i just got home with my new storm 9520.when i play a music i hear sound from only 1 speaker of phone that is under the phone. ( the place from we speak while on call)is it suppose to be this way?.i thought there must be 2 speakers for sterio sound one on top from where we hear a call and one at bottom from where we speak on call.
I can dial out and I know the phone connects to the other party (says connected) but I can't hear anything. The phone is not on mute and the volume dial is properly adjusted.Also, the voice recognition software stopped working just before this problem came up. Both problems now are present together.
My alarm will not sound, it just vibrates once then immediately goes to snooze mode. I've tried changing the settings, but it still will not play my sound. It does play the sound when I "try it", but not when alarm is set. I really need my alarm to work properly!
For some reason whenever I set my phone to any sound setting with sounds (not silent/vibrate) my phone won't make any sounds when I receive messages or calls. I use Normal sound setting and I have everything set to specific sounds but when I click "Try it" it does everything I set except for make noise. Am I doing something wrong or is there something wrong with my phone or what?
I have recently updated to the new OS via desktop manager. Shortly afterwards i have noticed missing calls and messages. The vibrate alert works & the light flashes but no sounds. I have expeirienced a similar but different issue on the last update, where all ringtones and sounds were ereased from the phone, resolution was go back to previous update and re apply update.
After a number of battery out reboots i have unfortunately not had success in correcting the fault. I note that the keypad tones are also gone when attempting to make a call. I have tried playing audio files and have no sound unless i switch to speakerphone, have considered that perhaps the speaker has failed or the issue has disabled the main speaker, guessing the ringer would use this...the phone works fine i.e the speaker next to ear works o.k but no evidence of any audio from the one on the back. In my few hours of exploring and proding the device i have discovered that the mute button seems to not do anything...
Can anyone offer some guidance or suggest a solution. I have trawled the forum a bit and found similar but not same descriptions, have explored all suggestions but have come up short
I'm wondering if it's possible to create a sound profile that will only ring/vibrate if a specific contact is calling or texting? Basically I don't want to be woken up in the middle of the night if someone else calls or texts, but it's important that I get calls or texts from this person regardless of the time of night.
Iphone 4 sound issue.On my iphone, after the upgrade to 5.1.1, the sound will only work through the phone speaker when it is ringing. All application sounds and notification sounds will not work through the iphone speaker.When a speaker or headphone is plugged in, all of the sounds will work.
I purchased a new Storm 2 from a Verizon subscriber.He indicated that the phone is unlocked however after putting my t-mobile sim card and trying to make a call.I receive the message that the phone cannot be authenticated.Does this mean it is still locked?T-mobile says they cannot unlock the phone.What is the best method for getting the phone unlocked?
I'm from Belgium and like the Storm2 9550 very much. Now it is not (yet) for sale in Belgium or in the closest neighboring countries. Because I'll be in the States in 3 weeks i was thinking about buying the phone there without a SIM. Will I have any issues when I'll be back in Belgium, charger is not an issue? Will the phone ever be available in Belgium?
i tried to use my bluetooth to share videos and music from others but the device cant recognize it even if the phone is also a blackberry still it cant recognize my phone what will i do?
I have a new 1520.3 and am on AT&T. My phone is running Cyan....
The speaker phone has a LOUD hissing sound whenever I dial out. By "speaker phone", I mean that when I dial a phone number, I click on the "Speaker" button in the dial pad to have a hands free phone call. This is an essential feature for me as I have phone conference meetings where I need to be using the computer and thus need my hands free.
The hissing sound is consistent and remains there for the entire call. When someone speaks it is reduced but when silence comes back, the hissing takes over
In two years of using the 920, I NEVER had an issue with the speaker phone in thousands of conversations, even after I upgraded to Cyan.
However, from day one, the 1520 speaker phone has a background hissing sound. Even with a 4 or 5 bar LTE connection (I live in DFW). Lowering the speaker volume to 5 (from 10), lowers the hissing sound but does not eliminate it.
As there are no audio controls (other than the Equalizer)...
I can't really seem to find the actual term, but the case is every time I unlock my phone the speakers seem to turn on for a moment, then shut down again, the problem is I always have the phone on vibrate, nevertheless this sound keeps appearing after doing certain actions, it's like a static noise, followed by a sound that resembles the speakers powering off. It's almost unhearable unless you pay attention, otherwise the speakers are flawless. Could fix some actions displaying it by going to settings, sound, and unticking pull-to-refresh sounds, however, the sound persists on unlocking screen.
Trying to make the hole for the loops to go through, I tried drilling through the battery cover but that just scratched it a little. Should I use a different drill or has anyone succeeded with a different method?
I'm leaving a company that said I can keep my phone (S1), but they want the number. I don't have a personal account w/Verizon yet. How can this be done? I don't know if they are planning to use the # right away, but it's associated with them.
My phones battery has tanked, ever since I updated my OS to the new 5.0 OS. I took it to the store and they are now gonna send me a replacement phone. Will it be a Storm 2 that arrives in the mail?
All of my contacts have been deleted by my phone. I know it sounds nuts. I did not do anything to delete anything that I am aware of. I don't go into those things for fear of doing that. It started last week when my phone was not showing my contact name with the phone number when someone would call me. I went to go and pull up a number today and my entire contact book was empty.I have already tried the following:
-Battery pull, waited for 15 secs.
-Checked my address book filters-both boxes are unchecked
I seriously believe that there is a problem with my storm getting updated through my laptop. Since the phone is connected to the net, is it possible to update directly instead of via the laptop?
Why is this stupid phone constantly switching off by itself? The other night it could not stay on for 5 min, every time I try to write a message the freaken thing reboots.Tonight again, busy typing a message, it switched off, rebooted and restarted.When all sort (well so I thought) I try to carry on with my message that was mostly wiped off, just as I started typing again, boooooommmmm we go again.Is there no setting or something? Why does it keep doing it.
I recently bought a new strom 9500 from a friend at work, it came with all the trimmings (box, cables, charger etc) and was purportedly used by my friend (who bought it new) before I bought it.When I put a new sim into it (vodaphone contract sim) it reads invalid sim , it shows a box saying "do you want to enter the sim card pin?" with a yes or no option to click, i click yes i want to enter the code, but it won't give me an opportunity to enter a code!Please help i love the phone but cannot use it and i worry that it is blocked!
I have an unlocked storm and use tmobile as my carrier. Two weeks ago I found that my browser icon had disappeared. I stopped recieving emails and no messages from blackberry messenger. I called Tmobile and they referred me to RIM. When talking to the folks at RIM they say its a Tmobile issue.Host routing table has no entries and no browser or email service books.
I have had a Blackberry Storm for about 2 months. I have found that when making a call, the phone regularly cuts out. Has anyone else experienced this?
I uploaded a .wmv video file and tried to watch it on BB Storm 1. I only got the sound to play, but no video. Is there a way get these types of files to play onto my phone?
Im just wondering, if the upper and lower speaker of Z3 should be equal in sound. The upper speaker is more powerful than the lower speaker (with or without sound enhancement)
For the first time, my Bionic started making a sound, somewhat between a slow crackle and a tick (although not perfectly regular in timing), that was audible with the phone setting on a sofa cushion. It sounded like it was coming from the area of the mic, but I suppose it was coming from the speaker on the rear near the bottom. I was not actively using any apps at the time, although Google Music and Pocket Casts had both been used (via Bluetooth headset) earlier today.
I tried sleeping the phone and waking it up, and the sound resumed. Power off, waiting a minute or two, and then power on seems to have fixed it, at least for the 10 or so minutes since I restarted it. For the record, this phone has been nearly 100% reliable -- the battery cover has never been off since leaving the Verizon store, about a week after launch.
I keep trying and can't install .JAD apps onto my Storm and get a message saying something like that kind of file cannot be installed. It's Quickpull that I'm trying to install but this is happening with all the .JAD apps. BBSlider and Google maps which are both .COD files installed fine.
I just upgraded to 5.0.0.419. my phone is still very slow, hour glass thinking icon pops up all the time. even when im just opening up text msgs or switching applications. just wondering if there are any tips out there to help with the issues my phone is having. thanks
