Both speakers on my lg chocolate has stopped working. i can go to my sounds and select play but no sound comes out. during a call i can hear nothing even when i switch it to speaker mode. but when it rings or i turn my volume up, the tone will play

The first solution would be to try to remove all the chocolate from the speaker. This may include opening the phone case and cleaning the speaker directly. Note, this will void any manufacturer's warranty.
Chances are that the speaker is no longer working at all. It has most likely been damage too severely. If you can handle using only the earbuds, than that may be the best solution. This model phone also has bluetooth, so you can use a bluetooth accessory as well. Unfortunately, it appears that your speaker is beyond the point of being saved.

ur loud speaker does not work u needto replace it

take it into verizon

It sounds like a failure in the earbud jack. Try plugging and unplugging a few times. If something got inside the jack, that could cause this issue. Shake the phone while you plug and unplug...

easiest way to solve this problem. go to call settings and TTY mode. and switch it to TTY + talk ... if that doesnt work then fiddle around with the other TTY settings untill it does. this disables the earpiece

this wouldn't be covered unless you have the accidental damage warranty. it seems like the speker is flipped over now

1. Check your sound settings.
2. Otherwise get the phone replaced

TRY THIS: Have had my LG chocolate for 10 days, then sounds just stopped. Another website said to take out the battery for a couple of minutes and put it back in, I just did that, and now my sounds are back!! I hope this isn't a chronic problem...

You should be able to turn the earpiece sound up, but on some phone this can only be done during a call.

go to:

• Settings & Tools
• Sounds Settings
• Service Alerts
• Minute Beep
• Select "off"

Hope this helps!
Have a happy new year!
