My new Curve answers every call on speakerphone for the first few seconds then reverts to the internal speaker. Very loud and annoying. Has anyone else had this problem? I tried to search forums but the security string wouldn't let me, I apologize if this has been covered.
This may also be a firmware issue. Check to see if you have the latest version, and if not upgrade it. I recall the Curve having the same issue a while back and one of the firmware upgrades fixed it.
I hate to sound ignorant but what is firmware as opposed to software? It is a new phone (30 days or so) and has the latest software. I talk to the ATT store and they couldn't offer any advice and said they have never heard of it happening before. Sorry for the delay, I've been traveling. thanks all.
you know it only happened once, I was talking to a friend and out of nowhere it eneded up going on speaker phone i didnt know how to turn it off since it is still new...(now i know how to turn it on and turn it off).
is it possible that your cheeck or fingers hit the speaker button?
My 8310 does this too. Quite randomly though, most of the time it works as it should. However, every once in a while, it will answer with speaker phone first and then switch to the ear piece. I've just been living with it. I'll try the firmware upgrade you guys suggested.
i have an 8330 VW with 4.5 and so does my husanbd, and our phones do the same thing...I was told it was its a known OS error.. there are some old posts about it somewhere, but im sure they are buried now.
Starts on speakerphone?
