[FIX] 7100i Speaker shuts off in holster - How to Fix

There have been a few instances where our clients who own Blackberry 7100i handsets have had trouble with an issue where the speaker function of the phone gets turned off each time they remove it from the holster.

Here is how to fix the 7100i speaker shutting of in holster:

The speaker button on the top of the phone is a toggle to turn the speaker on and off for each call. Meaning you can push it to toggle the speaker back on, but soon as you put the phone back in the holster; the speaker gets shut off again, as I am sure many of you have discovered.

There is actually a keystroke you can use to tell the 7100i that you want or do not want the speaker to be enabled automatically when removed from the holster. That keystroke is:

Hold down the # key for 2 seconds.

I was amazed at how simple this solution was, yet how elusive it was while searching for it in the manual.
