Help! new droid user with a simple question...

[jtsalty]

Hi all! I just got the new motorola droid phone from Verizon today and I managed to mess up some of my settings already...whoops!

Sound only comes through the ear piece and not the speaker on the back of the phone. When the phone rings I can barely hear it despite the ring tone volume being all the way up. The phone is not in silent mode or airplane mode, ring tone and notification sounds are turned all the way up... does anyone know how to get the sound through the speaker on the back of the phone and not the earpiece on the front of the phone?

Many thanks!

I am having the exact same issues. I think it happened after I paired my bluetooth headset, but the headset is off and I still have no volume. Did you figure it out?

Yes, if you have bluetooth on, it is likely sending the audio there. Try turning BT off and see what happens. Also, if this is a real problem, you can download a widget for your home screen to toggle the bluetooth on and off with a single press.
