First of all thank the Comunity and this site for their tremendous efforts throughout the development of roms, more than once because reading and reading and reading I have resolved all doubts!
I will try to explain as best as possible, to have if anyone can help.
I'm happy owner of a HTC Shift for over two years, which is purchased in a thrift store and everything has been perfect so far.
The problem must be the JACK audio, initially plugging and unplugging the headphones when you restart and some tricks but everything was going perfectly, until one day no longer heard the speakers.
Putting the headphones the sound is coming in windows 7, but in Windows Mobile not heard anything (before it was heard ringing through the headset intense ).... I assume that JACK CONECTOR is a failure, the case is that I have completely dismantled the shift and is the first time I see a JACK of this kind and are not where they compare, ask at several shops in Barcelona and do not know what kind it is.
If somebody could help me or tell me where to buy.
My idea if I fix this problem is put in the hole next to that Jack, another for connecting the headset and microphone and boring windows mobile housing for output and thus be able to use it as mobile and able to speak and hear for the handsfree
Well, if anyone can help me would greatly appreciate it, thank you for your attention and greetings from Spain
Thank you for your attention and greetings to the entire community

Hi
I just dropped my xda , and I seem to have lost all sound since then. Therefore cant use as a phone anymore .
I plan to take it to a well known phone repair outlet hereabouts, but since this is an entirely different piece of equipment it would probably help if they had a circuit diagram or something, with pointers as to what to look for.
Would anyone be able to help out with this, so that I can then take it to these guys with some indication as to what they should look for and where it is likely to be?
ANY help is welcome.
Hi,
I have had this problem but without dropping it :wink: just using it regularly like a MP3 player in my car thru the jack connector on it (same thing if you are using offten the headphone :?: ). So my problem was on the jack and I fixed it myself with a shortcut, and sence then my sound volume has become even better, :lol: suppose it vas galvanized a bit before :?
All the best

Re: Help
Bumpity bump...
Pls guys... dont tell me none of you had this issue.....
help me out here ... i really need it .....
Hey,
I got mine sorted.
I bought something very similar to THIS
My one is slightly different. Only has one button on, which isn't going to get used anyway!
The above one would do the same I'd imagine.
Cost me £11 from Best Buys
Works an absolute treat. And sounds much better than my old iPhone.
Just need to run another cable from the adapter to the phone, and away you go!
Hmmm... that is a good solution for this....
But then again i think there was an HTC phone review where i saw this option pop out when u connect anything into the jack... lets see...
As for that .... ya that is a good option...
But lets hope someone comes along for another solution...
Ill have to check if something similar to that Jack is sold here in my country in India...
Thanks for the heads up man... appreciate it
wanted to post this as a seperate thread..also posted it as an answer to another nrelated thread where the question came up..
these are stereo headsets for music and calls...the ear bud options might work for you guys while driving:
I own 3 bluetooth headsets (yes i own every tecky geeky corny cool gadget I can find...usually I just test them out and sell them for a profit on ebay ).
I bought these Samsung SBH600 on woot during a one day sale for 55 bucks (shipping included) and you cant find them anywhere now (sorry...if you wait anywhere between a couple of months to a year woot may have them again..its one sale a day there). They are 30% passive noise canceling and really good quality. Can be used both for music and calls:
http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=14521
These also have a wire for a 3.5 mm jack so you can use for music only if you ran out of juice.
This is the amazon listing in case it ever become available again:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002CX03PA/sr=8-2-fkmr1/qid=1286355036/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&qid=1286355036&sr=8-2-fkmr1&seller=
For comparable ones you can find the previous model but i cant vouch for those:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SBH500-Bluetooth-Wireless-Headset/dp/B0016I6GUS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=mobile&qid=1294670770&sr=8-1
You will have to check reviews and I do not think those have any noise cancelling properties. I think they also lack the 3.5 mm jack.
i also have the moto rockr headset:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001LXR0BW/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_2?pf_rd_p=1278548962&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B001EKQQ5S&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0D7YT72QD8CD9NMWYTKH
This one is more of a startreky kind of look like a backwords visor. They have earbuds and it hangs behind your head. Good quality and has volume control and answering calls etc. Does not have 3.5 mm jack so bluetooth is your only option or noise cancelling.
Finally I have the very first version of these sony bluetooth headsets which also have a little led display on them. They can connect to more than one device so you could have them connected to your ipod and phone together for example (I think the samsung has that too but I havent tested it out).
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Ericsson-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset/dp/B003DQ1DCM/ref=pd_cp_cps_0
Other options I do not own and cannot vouch for:
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-S305-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset/dp/B002BH3I9U/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1294671987&sr=1-1
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-DRBT101-BLK-Bluetooth-Headset/dp/B001QXDSMW/ref=sr_1_8?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1294671987&sr=1-8
hope this helps...its usually the stero headsets which will play music and then answer calls...the ear muff style is good for planes etc..the earbud style for driving and stuff...
Hi all,
to my great frustration, I've discovered that my SGS2 line-out / headphones jack seems to have a slack joint, i.e. if you turn a connected plug around its long axis, a crackling sound is heared in the speakers and at some angular positions the stereo signal will be reduced to mono (i.e. one speaker gos silent). With one device (mobile outdoor speaker) I even had no sound at all at when inserting the plug with the wrong "orientation".
Did anybody experience the same problem or am I just out of luck here?
I am wondering whether sending back the device to the retailer (Amazon) or directly to Samsung (I'm situated in Germany) will yield the faster round-trip time, any experiences here?
Thanks!
PS: I know this may be a stupid question but can somebody PLEASE tell me how to search for multiple keywords with AND logic in this forum? Tried "+word +word" and "word AND word" (without the quotes) but nothing seems to work.
Are you using the headphones that came with it? My better half went through 4 sets of the stock samsung headphones with her original Galaxy S and all produced the same issue of losing one channel after a matter of days/weeks. having the jack inserted to about 2/3rds is a workaround but not ideal as you still lose some frequencies and it's insecure... They're just a bit pony.
No, I used different kind of headphones, including Sennheiser in-ear headphones and a standard male-male audio jack connected to some bigger hifi system. With some jacks I did not encounter the problem, but most of them lost some part of the signal with some orientations: I persume that the manufacturing tolerance of the jacks also plays a role...
Anyway, it's definitely not a problem of the jacks but of the device since I tried it with the SGS2 of a friend yesterday and it worked with the same jack that made problems with my device.
I will proceed sending my phone to Samsung for repair, I hope that won't take to long *sad looking*, I am so used to it now, it's card to survive to weeks without it.
I had the same problem, all I had to do was insert headphones cable "HARDER" into the audio jack until I herd a "click" sound.
I was way to over protective of this phone when i first had it, and wanted to handle too much with care, forced the dam cable in, and "click", sounded like it snapped into place, the audio worked correctly without cracking noise or without the need to wiggle to cable get clearer sound.
Perhaps your friends SGS2 is already used to headphone being inserted, but yours not. Just add a little pressure until you hear clip into place.
If this doesnt help, then repair or return.
Thanks for the hint, but unfortunately I had the jack inserted to the very end, so this was not the problem... sent in for repair now, let's see what happens.
I have a fix for you i think!!!!!!!!
ok . when i got my s2 like 4 days ago (at&t usa version) i noticed that when i plugged into my aux cable in my car that it was low sound cracking more volume on the left side , very annoying . NOW FOR A SIMPLE FIX FOR SOME TO TRY! PLUG IT IN ALL THE WAY! i noticed when plugging it in i wasnt fully plugging it in . it should go all the way down FULLY! the sound is perfect once this is done . I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU !!!!!! good luck
Hello,
Here is my problem: Suddenly for no reason at all, the R earbud stopped working. My thought was: "Oh well, it happens with earphones", after that i bought some earphones without microphone which had much more clearer sound, and both of earbuds (R&L) worked well, untill few days ago, suddenly the right one (R), drop dead. I thought that it was again earphone problem, but I've tried to put them to my laptop, stereo, etc. and they worked just fine. So, I thought:"It must be audio jack problem". And it was, because now only left one works, and I must twist earphone plug in a strange way for both of earbuds to work but it is impossible to me to hold them all the time like that.
My brother has also galaxy S3, so I borrowed his original Samsung earphones and I didn't have to twist them or bend them. They just worked fine, both of earbuds. So I've done some searching over the internet and I've learned that it could be some contact problem in jack, that one contact is loose. My question is, how to fix that fast and cheap, because I'm cheap and lazy bastard. I would like to know if there is any solution to my problem so i won't have to go to Samsung service. I've seen that there are replacement parts for audio jack + speaker on eBay, any experiences with that?
Best regards!
Hello all,
So my girlfriend bought a fake S5 (yes yes, buying fake things ain't smart, but it works great apart from the music.. and the battery)
Well now, when she wants to listen to music, she plugs in her earbuds and what happens is that the vocals are like too low in volume, they are echoing or just at all not being played. Unless she holds the handsfree button (that button that lets you skip songs, pick up a call, etc.) the music is just messed up.
I tried her phone with my headphones (ofcourse doesn't have a handsfree button) and it works just perfect. We bought new earbuds without handsfree button and that just does the same thing as the headphones she already had.
Now, the guy that sold her this phone told us he bought it from here:
http://www.slmart.com/sdp/1258442/4...msung_galaxy_s5_mobile_phone_copy_cell_p.html
Maybe there's somebody here that can help with this issue? Maybe it's the software or just the hardware? I'm convinced it has something to do with the phone's software, but there is so little to be found about this phone that I figured I'd ask it here.
Thanks in advance for helping!:fingers-crossed:
Thread van be closed, it's a hardware probleme unfortunately. When I Tried it again today the sound played good when my cable was in a certain position, we've contacted the seller trying to discover if all phones have this problem.. If so we'll just gonna have tot accept it
