Guest gemidriver Posted May 30, 2006 Report Posted May 30, 2006 Hello I have an I-mate Sp5, and have had it for about 1 month. I haven't had any problems up until now. When playing music through media player etc, the sound is all crackly. It only started on the weekend and am not sure why. I have always played the music with no problems. Has anyone else had this problem? I have tried resetting the phone to defaults to make sure there were no software problems. Can someone please shed some light on the topic? Or do i need to take it somewhere and get fixed? I am in Australia Cheers

They cant correctly playback the frequencies so you can get weird staticy/crackly sounds, if you have the volume turned up the distoration is further exaggerated. Does the speaker work fine when you make phone calls?

I have been playing music and sound bytes for as long as i have had it, and only just recently started playing up. It has always been on loud to play the music etc.
Guest Tech Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 well in that case looks like the speakerphone component has been worn out/damaged because of the loudness of the music being played through it.....replacement i think :)

I bought the phone off ebay, and am not sure about the warranty, is that through clubimate.com? I haven't signed up as a second hand device user yet... Where in australia will i be able to get it fixed?
