Speakers Not Working!

[The Spider Mastermind]

Well, all that talk of Sonic in the off-topic thread made me want to start playing Sonic 2. I had my headphones in at this point and took them out. I found it odd when no sound came out of the speakers.

Rebooting and taking out/putting back in headphones hasnt helped.

Is this the jack-coming-loose everyone is talking about, or has something happened to it like what happened to my GP32?

(My GP32's speakers rattle now )

Assistance is appreciated!

It's not the usual problem. The usual one is the sound always coming from the speakers when the headphones are plugged.
But it's possible that's it came from the same hardware part.
If you feel comfortable to open your unit see This post, it's the upper right pin (I think) on the 3rd photo.

Why I first got my GP2X (second hand), there was no sound coming out of the speakers - I was a bit worried, but when I tried the headphones there was sound, and when I unplugged them again, the speakers started working. They have worked perfectly since - I think it was probably just the contacts in the headphone jack being sticky or something... try plugging your headphones in and out a load of times - see if that helps...

I tried plugging my headphones in a couple of times but alas, sound only comes through the headphones.
