Cannot answer or make a call through the actual phone

Hello...

Has anyone experienced this issue yet. I have installed 2.0 on my 1st gen phone and am experiencing many fo the issues reported here (lagging, freezing...etc). Today, I walked out of work and tried calling my wife and it would show the call was connected, however i could not hear or speak to her. i tried this several times and then finally hit the speaker button and everything was normal (I could hear and speak). I tried everything again when i got home and i continue to run into the same issue. I have reset the phone, checked all the settings... i dunno, anyone have any advice

Thanks

Windows, Windows Vista

I am having the exact same problem. I can make or receive calls with the headphones or a Bluetooth headseat, but the handset does not work. It shows connected but there is absolutely no sound.... I do not know what to do. I have restored the software and still the same issue.

Odd thing is that I've had the phone a year now and didn't know there was a speaker button!

You might try disabling bluetooth -- just in case it thinks it's still paired with your BT device, or is somehow pairing with someone else's.

It turned out to be the headphone jack for me, something inside it was cathching or something... making the phone think it had headphones still plugged into it. I would try there, i just removed and inserted the headphones into a few times and it released whatever was catching(Play your i pod at the same time, once it releases you should hear music through the speaker)... (I had just bought a different pair of headphones, so I'm not sure if that caused it?)
