Some LG phones lose the ability for you to hear the audio.  This can happen because the phone “thinks” a wired headset is plugged in.  However plugging and unplugging a wired headset often does not solve the problem.  Before you give up on the phone try to things:  1) blow out the charger hole – sometimes there’s debris in the charger hole which shorts out that connection, and 2) with the phone on stick a paper clip end into the wired headset hole and jiggle it around a bit – often there’s a short in this connector and the paper clip can solve the problem.

If you have an LG phone with this type of problem, feel free to bring it to the store if you want us to try this paper clip type fix.  Again, we’re not a service center, but we’re good at these shortcut type fixes that often save the trip to the repair shop!
