Help with speaker and flip issue

So i got my g1 a week ago, wednesday i managed to break the charging port. So today i took it to a cell phone repair store, they fixed the charging port, but when i got home i noticed my speaker doesnt work now, and my phone no longer switches views? when i flip it open, only if i set it to detect when i flip it and only if the phone is still closed, if that makes any sense. If its locked and i flip it open it doesnt even respond now, could this just be a loose wire, or did they possibly screw my phone up? I could deal with this if the phone still rang, now when someone calls its quiet :( and i cant have that

Sounds like they could have messed it up ... I would call them and let them know you need to bring it back in.

well, they did break it in the first place.
maybe you can get them to fix it for free.
it is there fault after all.
hopefully they remember me in two weeks when i can finally afford to get back out there :( i shouldnt have gotten it fixed, ill never do that again now :( i bought the perfect charging station that could charge just the battery alone should have just stuck with that

one other issue i noticed is the keyboard backlight is out also, are you guys sure this couldnt be caused by something not being plugged in all the way?
