I have had this same problem last few days.  I am not sure if it is related to the fact taht I just bought a

Motorola S305 MOTOROKRbluetooth headset and wonder if that corrupted some aspect of the Blackberry's speakerphone.  I uninstalled the Motorola S305 MOTOROK, rebooted and STILL no alarm or speakerphone.  HELP!

Hi,

Apparently if you remove battery (hard boot) and then put it back after 15-30 seconds it should work. I have done this twice over past few months. I hope thios helps.

I know this thread is a few months old, but I had the same problem today and I woke up late, and I'M A TEACHER. What is the point of having an alarm if it's unreliable? I figured out the battery pull fix because boyfriend used to have the same problem on his Curve every now and again. A battery pull is a work around, but I can't predict in the middle of the night that my alarm will stop sounding. I'm still calling to get this fixed...either a new phone or a non-Blackberry or whatever. It's ridiculous.

Sounds CRAZY, but I just fixed mine by tapping the speaker  port against a hard surface with about the same force as you would use to crack an egg against the side of a bowl.  I saw this on crackberry.com site and figured it was just crackberry enough to try.

Hope this helps.

Thanks tkrenning!

My mom's "Tour" was not ringing, nor was speakerphone working.  I was thinking I was going to have to order a replacement speaker but short of that I tried your egg-cracking tapping trick and it worked.

Thanks again.

After 4 days, 2 wipes and 2 rollback/updates plus travelling to the nearest blackberry tekies my problem is solved.  Your "Egg Cracking" trick worked like a charm. thanks.

Dude Thanks.  After getting off the phone with Sprint and going to the repair store I was still without it working.  I read your post and said it's crazy but what the hell!  Got nothing to lose at thie point.  To my suprise, my ringer and speaker now work!  Thanks for the tip!

Egg Cracking Trick worked once again, My wife had thought I lost it, tapping her phone on my desk, until it started working LOL

Thanks again,
