I let my friend use my phone this morning, and I don't know if he gripped it too tightly, and hit some hidden keystroke, or what. Or perhaps it was totally coincidental.

Anyways, the phone now only lets me hear and talk when speakerphone is enabled.

If I don't hit speakerphone, I can't hear it dialing, and they can't hear me speaking.

I have the in-call volume all the way up.

I turned it on and off several times. I even took the battery out the last time. No luck.

Is this some mystery setting? Or do phones have two separate audio circuits, one for regular audio, and one for speaker?

Does the phone think I have a headset plugged in or something? How to clear that?

Edit: Weird. And just like that, it's working again. Strangeness.

make sure the mute is off ?

Also go in to the accessibility settings and make sure nothing weird is checked off there.
