Yesterday the sound went on my Nokia 6230. I put it in slient profile while at the cinema but now I can't get the sound back. The ring tone, message alert, alarm etc is gone, however I do get the beep when I delete a text, lock/unlock the phone & put the phone on charge. I also get the keypad tone when I press a key. The vibrate works, but no sound.
Weird or what.
I have:
set the profile to General
checked/changed the incomming call alert
checked/changed the ring tone
checked the ring volume
checked the message alert tone
checked the Alert for
switching the fone on & off
switched on/off bluetooth, irda etc
changing numerous combinations of the above

This fone does/did not get any hardship.

I also had a friend of mine have a look at it & he is baffled.

I am considering a factory reset but only as a last resort

Anyone come accross this before & have a maagic solution?
 
Have you checked the loudspeaker is working ? If not the speaker is broken, has happened to me on 2 Nokia phones so far.
 
No joy there either.
If you mean that you did not get sound from the hands free speaker I suggest your speaker is broken or a wire has loosened ( try shaking it a little when someone is calling you ), in both cases probably time for a replacement.
 
I walloped it on the desk just no & the sound came back for a few minutes. I will have a go at dismantling it later & see if I can see a loose connection, as thats what it is. Dont expect much joy though, those wires are pretty small.....

Thanks for the pointers guys.
