I had the same thing happen to my LG VX-3200. I lost the external
speaker when I let the battery go completely dead. Somehow this
caused "dain bramage" to the phone.

I re-flashed the ROM by dialing *228 and chose option 1. That fixed
mine. If it doesn't work in your case, then a visit to the Verizon
store is in order.

HTH.

FWIW, *228 doesn't re-flash the ROM, it only programs your NAM, CDMA values,
etc.

ROM re-flashes must be done with special software and cables.
