Sound Problem With The K-Jam?

I don't know if this is unique to my device or if anyone else has seen this Sometimes the sound on my K-Jam stops working. Turning the sound off and back on via the sound icon on the start bar doesn't fix it. So far, I have found two sure-fire fixes. A soft reset always fixes it, which may suggest hardware since everything is reinitialized when it boots. However, I tripped up on another fix. I call the K-Jam from another phone. It doesn't ring of course, but does show the pop-up and vibrates. I have my phone set to ring and vibrate all of the time. I hang up the calling phone before voice mail picks up. Now the "missed call" alert sounds. That's right, sounds. Whatever happens when that is triggered fixes the problem, which suggests this is a software issue, and why I thought some of you might be experiencing it too.

hi all,
I have the same problem with my Imate JAM no SOUND coming from phone speaker. I tried to stick the screwdriver but not managed to get sound. Is it an hardware or software problem. Besides I have updated Imate 's radio rom also.

Hi, I got exactly the same issue as Ian and I realised that I used the headset before the issue occour. Instead of screwdrivers has been enough to used a metal paper clip and play around inside the headset jack hole and it is back fully working!!

I had the same problem, and instead of inserting foreign objects such as paper clips and screwdrivers, if you just insert the first tip of the headset, ad rotate it around a little, it comes right. I find it best to play a song on media player while doing it, so that you can hear when the sound returns, as you can also 're-activate' the little switch that caused the problem to start off with.
