You might have stumbled upon this trick which I wrote about about a year ago on modmyi.com.
Someone actually made a nice video without giving me any credit, how dare him :-) Click here to see it.
If you are an iPhone user (first model to be specific), you might have noticed how much of pain the speaker volume really is. You might have missed a few phone calls because you were unable to hear your beloved ringtones.
I recall being at my computer one night and tried every single software hack I could in order to increase the speaker volume. I modified many of the system files on the iPhone without luck. Then I thought of cleaning the phone and went for the tiny holes that cover the speaker phone.
Below is what I did...
Caution: Not for the faint of heart!
1. Get a needle or any pointing device that's small enough to fit through the tiny little holes on the bottom left hand side of your iPhone (Don't try this on the iPhone 3G). There are 23 tiny holes in total.
2. Go ahead and poke through the center 10 little holes. You'll feel it when the needle penetrates a very small plastic cover inside the iPhone. YOU WILL NOT DAMAGE YOUR PHONE BY DOING THIS. Click here to see what you are actually poking.
3. Play any music track through the speakerphone and there should be a HUGE increase on the speaker volume.

People still use 2G?
Many people do and I'm actually one of them. 3g iPhone still locked to AT&T and the 2G iPhone can be unlocked and be used on other networks and taken overseas.
