iPhone no sound in speaker but okay in headset

I was almost devastated when I dropped my new iPhone last night. I was in a hurry to go out of the office and accidentally slammed on the glass door. The door is usually open all the time but for some reason it was closed that time. Fortunately, I was able to buy protective iphone accessories last week. The protective casing cracked. I could just imagine what could have happened in case my phone was not wearing a case. I would totally freak out if that was the case.

Oh, I also would like to share a bug I discovered in the iPhone. When I unplugged my headset, I notice that I could not use the internal speaker anymore. It seems like the iPhone forgets if it is still using a headset or not. I tried restarting, rebooting, unplugging and replugging the headset but nothing worked. A friend of mine suggested that I clean the headset jack with a cotton swab with alcohol. voila! it worked. Seems like dirt was just blocking the internal sensor of the iphone to determine if a jack is plugged in.
