If your wifes phone says that occasionally then it dosent work just fine. An error is not just fine.

The previous dude or chicka was correct, the phone is fried. You are SOL. Flashing it won't solve anything, unless you are into that sort of thing.

A headset should work on it.

And a good day to you, sir!! 😈 😉 🤣

the phone works just fine, doesnt turn off, doesnt drop calls, calls are clear not distortion, get it now works etc.. so its not fried. do u even have the 6000 or 7000? how the F*)^ do u know how it works? and uh YOUR WELCOME!!!!!!!!!

Actually I know quite a bit about cell phones. . I work on them daily. What it usually means is that there is a software problem. 99.9% of the time it has been caused by liquid damage. Flashing the phone-- ie reloading the software -- will not fix the problem. For my job.. i have to know all the phones.. also for that other .1% when we take the phone apart there is some type of corrosion.

I'm afraid the bad news is correct. If you got car kit mode and it ain't in a car kit, that is a common indicator of LD, not unlike headset mode on older TDMA nokia's. There is corrosion that is causing a connection that you can't see and makes the phone think it is hooked up to something. I recommend an insurance claim. Unless you bought a 300$ phone and didn't want to fork out the 4.95$ per month to insure it.

you'd be surprised how many people don;t do that. i had a mom buy a 6000 for her 7 year old a while ago and decline the insurance. i wanted to slap her.

Someone bought a phone for their 7-year-old??? 😲 I'd want to slap them just for that alone!

How did I not give the correct answer? Liquid meaning milk water sweat.. any fluid? 🤣

Umm if you look at when I posted my thread it was YESTERDAY. Which you didn't post until 1 AM today. I am the one who suggested the liquid damage before you. Might want to open your eyes 😳

Actually here is my origianl post.

Hm. whatever

Acutally, take tha battery out of the phone...check the little circle at the bottom...if it's pink..means it came in contact with liquid. If that is the case, the software shuts off the Mic/Speaker to prevent shorts. It a safety feature. Unfortuneatly, no way to get out of car-kit.
