Gigabeat F20 No sound right ear

(1/2) > >>

bjorn:
It has worked fine for a couple of months with Rockbox but today I couldn't get any sound from the right earphone.. I tried a couple of different ones, tried to update to the latest build, installed the bootloader again but no result.. I even tried the original Toshiba v3 firmware but still I only got sound from the left earphone..

Must be a hardware malfunction?
Can I do something about it?

I've searched for others with the same problem but this seems to be rare..

RotAtoR:
Have you checked the balance setting in the sound settings?

Mad Cow:
If it's the same in the OF it's a hardware problem. Maybe you headphone jack has a bad connection. Open it up and see if you can fix it.

bjorn:
I've checked the balance setting.. nothing wrong there

What is OF?

RotAtoR:
Oops, missed the part about the problem also being there in the OF (original firmware). Most probably a hardware problem then.  :'(
