    So my husbands phone started first, you would hit answer and it would go to speaker for like 3 seconds. I thought he messed with the settings but now mine is doing it too. HELP!!!! If you think it is defective please let me know.

    I was instructed to pull the battery...that SEEMS to have fixed it....here are battery removal instructions >>

    Battery pull: while the phone is on, take the battery out for at least 30 seconds, then put it back in.

    OR

    Soft reset: press Alt+Shift+Del

    OR

    Double soft reset: press Alt+Shift+Del. When the screen is white, press Alt+Shift+Del again

    These do not hurt the phone.

    To find out your OS, go to Options, About. It should be near the top.

    The battery pull is basically a universal fix-all for when your Berry is acting up. It is kinda like re-booting your computer when she is running slow...

    I'm having the exact same thing happen to me. When I answer the call the speakerphone turns on for about a second. If I'm in a noisy area people on the other end get a bit confused. The battery pull has not helped me either.

    I�m having the same problem with a 8120. Strange part is that it does not act like it always. Sometimes does and sometimes works fine. I have upgraded the OS, tried the fix-for-all battery pull solution and nothing... It keeps doing this.
    Hope we find the solution soon

    I just restarted my phone and it still does this, if only for a moment.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Call my phone
    2. Press the Green TALK button while holding a touchtone key on the calling phone

    Results:
    - About 1/3 second of BRRRRRAAAAHHHHH as loud as a phone can be gets erupted into my office, causing everyone around to wonder WTF

    Expected:
    - The phone does not go to speaker mode when answering

    Wow, I bet that's annoying. You probably should post that on the 8900 thread.

    I've had this problem as well... nothing seems to work for a long period of time. I've also had it to where certain individuals trigger it, while others don't, but it jumps back and forth. Then it'll change and do it every time, then it'll only do it once in awhile.

    I've had to go on speaker phone and turn it all the way down to keep from:
    1. Getting embarrassed
    2. My ear getting blown out when answering

    First time it happened it was full blast... I about wet myself (just kidding) LOL! Hope there will be a permanent fix some day.

    Battery pull fixes 90% of BB problems lol.

    speaker stopped working on tour ->battery pull = works

    ringtones playing as sounds recieved in a sms ->battery pull = fixed

    Battery pull is like Nike-> just do it!
