Whenever I plug in a pair of earbuds or headphones, the right side does not work. I've tried different earbuds and headphones and all have the same problem when they are used with my phone and they work perfectly fine on any other device. Has anyone ever experienced this and knows the fix?
It's because the jack is made for headsets with mics. Try pulling the end out slightly for regular headphones to lineup properly.

the old synergy nightlies and the new eternity nightlies have an app called dsp manager, idk if you can find it in the market ive never looked. but i think it has a setting that lets you switch between connectors and stuff like that for headphones. might work
Idk if you've fixed it yet, but this used to happen to me, and all I had to do to solve the problem was reboot my phone.

Music plays fine out of the wired headset...it always has. The headset has functioned properly until about two weeks ago. At that time, my Atrix began to think that I was pressing the headset button. Constantly. Over and over. Any time the screen is on with the headset in, it redials automatically. When the screen is off, it does it too, because when I turn the screen on, it gives me the vlingo vs. voice command box. Also, when I make a call with the headset plugged in, the other person can somehow not hear me at all, until they call me back, and it's fine. The phone thinks the headset button is being pressed once every few seconds. THIS IS INCREDIBLY ANNOYING.
I know it's not the headset, because I've tried three different headsets (two by Motorola, both the 'official' wired headsets of the Atrix, and one third-party), all with the same result. Also, it's not just my phone! Oddly enough, I replaced my Atrix with AT&T's warranty, and THE NEW PHONE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM.
Has anyone else experienced this, or have the slightest clue what is going on? I've looked around the internet for weeks now and I haven't seen a single instance of it. Pleeeeease. This is brutal.
My headset with mic and button does not have any issues. Its the bose MIE2 mobile phone headset.
Yes I have experienced this as well and it is super annoying I will prob swap it out and hope I don't get another messed up one. Sometimes when I am in my car and connected to my bluetooth handsfree it'll do the same thing and start a song playing and I don't even push anything!!! Hope someone figures this one out.
theres defo something funny about the atrix headphone jack and remote controls.
At first my nexus one remote worked fine with it, but it started doing funny things, then flat out would go crazy (issuing commands without me touching it etc.)
Gave up and went wireless, now I only use wired @ the gyma dn they're just dumb headphones w/out remote
ME TOO!!
Yes, yes, and yes on having this problem. I use my headphones (SkullCandy FMJ) sometimes when riding my bike and yesterday all I kept hearing was "please say a command...did you say...I'm sorry please try again" over and over...hard to deal with at 70MPH!!! Hope this gets fixed, I thought it was my headphones, but it sounds like another GB issue. I don't have any problems when using my SENA SMH10 Bluetooth inside the helmet.
I had this same problem, mine got randomly solved. You could find how the wiring world for the Atrix and block that connection or cut off the controller on the headphone and solder your headphones back together.

Thanks for the feedback, but a)I'm not looking to do any soldering or rewiring (I'm good with software mods, but not hardware mods), and b) it never happened until recently, then I swapped out the phone for a new Atrix, and it happened right off the bat - again with all three headsets. Tried a bluetooth, worked fine, no problem.
I tried a new headset (skull candy something-or-other) and it's been working so far, inexplicably.
I made a voodoo doll of my Atrix and poked it a bunch of times in its little voodoo headphone jack. Seems to have done the trick. I'd recommend that method.
I have this problem too with my headphones from my Sony x1, or x10. I cant remember which one. But as soon as I plug them in the phone goes nuts!
Which really sucks because they are they best headset/ headphones I have ever used for my funny shaped ears.
I think mine fixed after I dropped it and the headphones came out Anyways as long as its resolved that's awesome.

Anyone having the problem using the pure music widget, by any chance? Uninstalled that and hasn't happened since with any headset.

i also started to experience this issues.At first i thought it is kernel or ROM issue but then after multiple test and experiment it is the Atrix 3.5mm headset jack is the culprit.If im not mistaken it is due to pressure contact sensor inside headphone jack.Please anyone know how to rectify this kind of problem do post your solutions for us.TQ

You bike at 70MPH? Holy.
so no one found a real fix or solution for this problem? Maybe we need to make a petition and submit to motorola
I had the same problem with a BB9700. It ended up being a damaged headphone jack. I figure some crap from my pocket had been in the jack when I plugged in the head set. Which jammed everything into it wrecking the receiving end of things.
Luckily I had a spare housing which came with a new jack. I'm not sure if it's as easy to replace on the Atrix since I haven't had the opportunity to tear it apart yet.
Power amp has settings that fix my controls and it works great.

Still no one ever face this kind of problem?
Can anyone confirm that this could fix our problem? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301998
I have same problem too. But I have this problem on stock ROM and CM10.1 (with 3.1 kernel) ROM. I don't have this problem with any other ROM.
Hi Everyone...Question where is the code behind the earbuds? Reason I am asking is that I plug my earbuds in and I can hear just fine but the person on the other end can't hear me. If I set TTY to VCO it works but audio stinks. Is this a Radio/ROM/KErnel issue??? Or do I need to unroot and take it back lol...someone please let me know!!!
Thanks!!!
it can be either or...
i found when using some AOSP roms(mainly older versions of CM7) people had a hard time hearing me.
currently i'm using CM7 1.6.1 and that's not an issue anymore.
In case anyone sees this it was actually a hardware problem, got a replacement phone and used the same ROM/kernel and all worked perfectly...the tech said that the saulder connections on the ear buds goes out easily...

Having a similar issue with ALL types of wired headsets. Posted in the General section and hoping to get some devs attention in it. Did some general Google searching and apparently by manufacturer design (thanks HTC!), when headsets are plugged in (not headphones mind you, diff is if it includes a mic), the mic disables on both the phone and the mic in your chord. You can bypass the disabling of the phone mic by changing the TTY mode but the quality is poor and still does not allow you to use your headset mic.
If you use regular headphones, the phone will show the headphone icon (again, not the headSET icon (with the boom mic in the pic)) and you can still use the mic from the regular phone. The problem I have here is it still requires me to walk around with my phone in the air as if it were on speakerphone.
I'm assuming devs can tweek this and I am 99% positive, previous headsets with my TB did NOT have this problem. I've used a mix of GB, AOSP, and Froyo roms (current), and have NOT found a way to get my headset (with mic built into the chord) to work. Extremely frustrating.
I'm not sure if this has to do with the x2 or just cm7 but I can't seem to figure it out. The audio without headphones is perfectly fine, but with them only the instrumental parts can be heard occasionally you can hear kind of a digital chirp of the vocals.tried figuring it out in dsp and music settings but nothing. Any advice on this is very much appreciated.

No problems with or without my headphones under CM7. Maybe your headphone port is bad?
Have you tried hooking up a different pair of headphones to see if it might be the headphones or the connector?
Have you tried it under a different ROM to see if you're getting the same problem?
Is this something that you only experience when listening to music with your headphones? Try checking the audio port to see if its got any lint in it. You can clear it out with a paperclip and you might be surprised to see how much has built up. It'd also be a good idea to test your phone with other headphones.
If this is happening with/without headphones, I'm not sure what would cause this. Maybe try a different music player?
It's happening to me, only on CM7

This happened to my Inspire 4G with CM7.1. The problem dissappeared upon installing ICS with aospX and kept working fine with IceColdSandwich, but several other problems forced me to return to Gingebrear. Now with CM 7.2 the problem is again.
It is not a total attenuation. It is a DSP setting that seems to be optimized for karaoke, because it selectively suppresses voice frequencies. However, all settings in DSP manager are turned off. Turning on Stage Virtual Room barely improves it. I can hear some voices, but really bad.
I think it's probably your headphones wearing out. I had a similar problem and a new pair of headphones immediately fixed the issue.
you got a case on that phone? I stopped using my otterbox 'cause every time i plugged in headphones, they'd act very stupid (sometimes giving the "no vocals" thing, sometimes cutting in and out)
I've also noticed that some headphone jacks don't do a good job of locating themselves and you can actually push them too far in.
I use a set of samsung headphones that have four contacts on the 3.5mm jack instead of the typical Tip-ring-sleeve three contact design. these are the ONLY headphones I have used that give me zero problems (unless I use the otterbox case along with them)
between the stupid angle on the hole for the 3.5mm jack on the phone, and a plethora of minute differences between jack designs, generally the X2 and headphones are a marriage made in hell...
stereo bluetooth works perfectly however
Wondering if anyone has had similar issues. I use the headphones from my skyrocket with mic and the mic works, i use my skull candy aviators and the mic doesnt work on it. These are great headphones and really want to get the mic to work with this. Anyone else have similar issues>
YES!!!!

i had a couple different pairs that just didnt work... or sometimes didnt work... it was infuriating... one was an iphone headset, but still, sometimes it worked, sometimes it didnt.... sometimes by bose mic wouldnt work either.....
Some headphone mic's not working?Arrow
I had that issue when I attempted to use my Dell Streak 5 mic-headphones. I plugged them in and the Note did not register the headphones at all when I played music. I rebooted the Note with the phones plugged in one time and now they work fine every time they are plugged in. Hope this helps.
Cheers!

I seem to have a weird problem with my headphone jack. I have a pair of Philips O'Neil headphones that up until the plug broke worked great with the TF101. I got a new cord and now the TF101 will not recognize the headphones when plugged in??? The new cord works in all other mp3 tabs I have tried it in so the cord is good. I have also tried different brands of cords and still no luck. It will work with ear buds that have a mic i.e. iPhone headphones or the ear buds from my Galaxy tab but not any other regular headphones. Any idea why this is? I tried a hard reboot and am contemplating a factory reset.
TIA

Hmm, did you do a firmware update recently? That might have randomly broken the functionality.

I may have. I know when I went to do a TB so I could wipe it, TB said it could not obtain root. It was rooted before. I'll look into that.

I found a solution, although not the one I want, it will work. There is an app called toggleheadset2 that forces the sound to go to the headphone jack. I get sound through the head phones again. Weird i have to do this but like the post above it could have been a firmware update.
Thanks
