treo 680 no microphone

[mike_hunt]

I have a treo 680 and if someone calls me, they cant hear me, I can hear them, so my microphone inside the phone is dead.

I will try to buy a dead parts phone and have the mic removed and replaced.

My question is, do I have to "only buy a 680" or will any palm phones mic work?

thanks in advance!

before anything else, did you try to troubleshoot the issue? like doing basic resets?

I already bought a replacement mic.

To anyone else having this problem, it could be (and probably is) as simple as the headset jack.
My 680 acted like this, it was NOT the microphone.
I had used a wired headset the night before, and the jack didn't electrically disconnect when I took the headset plug out.
I inserted a bobby pin in the jack, and it came out of it.
I didn't have the headset, plugging it in and removing it would probably have fixed it, too.
