It has a single speaker but grills are made for two for aesthetics and design balance,thats why only one works because there is only one speaker

That is not right. On the left grill you have the speaker, on the right you have the microphone. Not like you said just for aesthetics.

Both of my speakers work.. Your device may be defective.. Get it replaced.. I had an i phone with the same issue. Replaced it and got ine with both speakers working..

There is just one speaker, which is visible on the right side of this screen capture:

What i meant is there's speaker only one side,the other side of grill may look like having a speaker but there's not any,i didn't say anything about being mic there or not

Obvious sarcasm...even the iphone has only 1 speaker .. this is a pretty well known fact which is revealed with a normal google search..

[Q] Any hardware hacks for front-facing camera?

Just noticed that the Galaxy S is one phone that found a hack for a front facing camera. Of course it's a different device and everything, but I was wondering if there have been any tech-savvy members here to have looked into the possibility of a front facing camera for the HD2.

The HD2 doesn't have a front facing camera. How can software change that?
what are those two little circle lenses at the top of the phone... on the left of the ear / listening grid?
proximity sensor and light sensor
ah ok awesome!

hardware hacks Means modding equipment physically NOT via software.
With the huge screen and as thin as the HD2 is, I doubt you could find room for a front cam. From a software perspective, it wouldn't be a huge leap. But hardware-wise, it's like trying to jump the grand canyon on a ten speed

Headphones With Mic?

The Atrix headphones that came with the phone work fine. Including the Microphone, But its not so great quality in sound.
I've purchased an apple headset with a microphone... And I can confirm it does not work.

true, no controls work, but i thought the OP was just talking about the mic
and i dont think it works great, some people have complained they cant hear me. but they do that when im talking directly into the handset as well
Get the ibeats By Dr. dre they are a little expensive but worth every penny =)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X9-hF77gVo
Yes they sound great.
But what we want to know is if the controls work with the Atrix!
well the mic does work but not the controls =(
I just received these today............I like the sound, and they'll be just what I need for 2-3 hour flights.
Also, tested the mic out by calling my wife, and it works great too!
Motorola Behind-the-Neck Bluetooth Stereo Headset Black Bulk (S9-HD) - OEM
All the controls work also!
Do we need the 3.5mm plug type or the headset with the micro usb connector in order to use the controls?

Down side to covering the noise cancelling mic?

Looks like it is going to be awhile before the case I want is out. I can get the international version of it now. But like others have pointed out it covers the top noise cancelling mic. If I do that what exactly is that going to do?

Not much. You can also cut a hole in these cases carefully and use them if you are really concerned.

Yeah the focal point is off, it was hard to tell from the viewfinder when the picture is pretty much a black on black reflective object . I didn't want to spend the time shooting it again, but you can see the hole.

Hey, they added more colors (blue, black, and "red") were the only ones when I bought mine. That red appears to be masquerading as orange.
I'd imagine you could also accomplish something very similar with a Dremel tool and the right bit.
Or if you want the $0.10 solution, a paperclip and lighter.

sound bar

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-98...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1331855755&sr=1-1
Found this on amazon looks pretty good and has good reviews but im not sure it will work as its sound comes from the usb port.
Anyone tried anything similar?
My guess would be that you could use the USB connection to provide power but not sound. It does seem to have an aux input so you could connect the TF headphone jack to that with a mini stereo to mini stereo cord.

Don't know about the z305 but I bought the logitech tablet speaker while it was on sale and it was sufficent but not as loud and bassy as the diamond mini rockers http://www.amazon.com/Diamond-MSP100B-Rockers-Mobile-Speakers/dp/B002JM1V78
The logitech tablet speaker is supposed to clip on like those z305s, but i'm guessing because its designed for the ipad, it doesn't hold as well as it should because the pads on the speaker are not contoured for the transformer.

On the front the pads and the clip is curved, and only the tip of it is coming in contact with the tablet. One final note: with normal laptops the keyboard half is usually heavier than the screen so the whole thing resists tipping even with a speaker clipped on to it, but in the case of the transformer both halves seem to weigh about the same to the touch, so be careful if you have that thing on there and you have it opened to a precarious angle, i've had to catch the thing as it almost tipped over from a slight bump more times than i care for.
i just read on a post about usb hosts that the sound bar z305 doesnt work through usb but there is a 3.5mm jack on it to connect it to the headphone socket.
not sure on sound quality but it gets good reviews.
looks ghetto, just get a jawbone jambox. 10 hours via Bluetooth

[Q] XZU Speaker

Hello.
Does the speaker so bad and weak like they say in all reviews?
Can someone maybe could upload a youtube video of the speaker playing some music?
Thank you!
Google 'mobilegeeks YouTube'.
Nicole and Sacha have done some great comparison videos
It is by far the weakest aspect of the phone.
Let's just say if you had this phone in your pocket and you werent in a very quite place, you will NOT hear it ring.
I was at a mall with average number of crowd, nothing too loud, typical mall noise and I completely missed the ring and only noticed via the vibration.
Bluetooth earphone is a must or like me, don't use it as your daily driver phone and more of a tablet/media consumption device.
Speaker low? I own this phone and speakers are louder than my HTC Sensation XE, Nexus 7 and Asus transformer prime. Was really surprise by it at first use as people said it was poor. Or maybe it is poor for people who like to hear music in public place?

According to GSM Arena's test, the Ultra's speaker can be compared to the Lumia 920 and iPhone 5's speaker. Check under "Ringing phone, dB".

Wondering about the same thing - the speaker volume is noticeably lower than what I was used to on my previous Note 2. Hope i a.m not stuck with a defective unit! I too have missed a few calls simply because i could not hear the ring.
Btw, the Note 2 had custom ROMs which allowed you to boost the speaker volume (medium boost or high). Would be great if we could install a patch that did the same on the XZU
This phone only has one mono speaker and as it's waterproof, it's behind a skin to keep the water out, so yes, it is lower than stuff like the note 2. Every single review I read and saw warned of this.

Yeah, it's technically a loud speaker. But it's just poorly placed, recessed, and water proofed. For hearing the ring tone, it's fine. But listening to music or playing videos, it's definitely one of the big negatives for me.
In fact, if I don't place my hand around the speaker to reflect sound, it would almost be unusable in certain situations. Which is unfortunate given its large video friendly screen.
Bottom line, either don't have high expectations for the speaker and/or go the external speaker route.

Have you tried phonecalls WHILE bathing? You'll think the mediocre volume when the speaker is dry is a godsend :screwy:
