Pleaseeee helpp!!!
The last few hours my speaker on my iphone 3G hasn't worked. I cant here my phone ring, i cant listen to music without headphones, it is acting as if it is on silent, but it isnt!
I have tried to reset it but this hasnt worked, i have tried to continuously put in the headphones and then take them out again, this hasnt worked either.
The phone is like brand new...yesterday i got it, and the speaker was fine, and then today about 3 hours ago it went!

I know it sounds stupid but have you checked the mute switch on the side.

It sounds extra stupid since he said in the original post that he did.

Take it back. If its only 24 hours old they'll exchange it no questions asked.

fluff maybe

Hiya

Blow into the headphone socket and/or insert then remove the headphone jack quite fast several times. Repeat!

You may have some fluff or debris in the headphone socket that makes iphone think a headphone is attached - it happened to me a couple of times with the earlier iphone... maybe that damn recessed socket attracts rubbish?

Good luck
