My Blackberry Bold just started dropping out audio on the earpiece on the hadset. I hear a click then audio is dropped for a second then continues as normal. This happens every 5 - 10 secs during a call. If I put it on speaker phone the click still occurs but it switchs it off speaker to the earpiece each time. If I play music on the speaker the click occurs and it switches it to the headphone jack. If I use the headphone/mic jack it all works fine. Tried a reboot which hasn't helped.

Anyone got ideas on the cause and/or fix?

Thanks

Have you ever opened the bold?

[brettule]

No, why?

[miamirulz29]

Because if you had opened up the bold, you may have not fully connected one of the cables. Have you spilled water on it by accident?

It almost sounds like a headphone jack problem. Maybe use some canned air in the headphone jack to clean out whatever might be in there.

Used a bike pump to clean it all out, will see how I get on.

[brettule]

Nah no help. Still giving me grief.

A day or so later after the bike pump clean it seems to have settled down. Not had an issues since.
