Problem still exist, however I have discovered that if I turn on spkr+ph 
to on, I have audio fine without headphones plugged in, but if I change 
it to spkr+ph to NO then the audio in speaker shuts off with no 
headphones plugged in.  I have sprayed my phone connector plug with 
Eledtronic cleaner and put in phone jack and turned it and still no 
audio out speaker with phone plug out.  When I turned on my K3 this 
evening before doing the test, I could not get any audio out speaker at 
all.  Before it was hit and miss.  So question again, cud it be phone 
plug on the K3 or firmware issue? Firmware agn is MCU 4.86.

Thanks
John
