Has anyone else had a problem with their headphone jack? When I plug headphones in, I have to wiggle it around until they actually work, then hold it there to get any sound. Is it just my device or widespread?

get a replacement headphone first. most likely your headphone jack is lose or need to replaced. if it is not the headphone then it is your new S3. replace it asap.

Plugged in my phone yesterday to the car using aux and noticed that the sound was only in the right speaker.. So I first thought the cable had jumped out from the aux port, but that was wrong :/
Have tried both in the car, my headset, home cinema speaker and my computer speakers.
The problem is my 3.5 port. When I turn and wiggle the cable do I sometimes hear the left speaker "activate"
Warranty? Even if it's rooted?
Any other way to fix this?
you will need to restore stock rom for warranty, do the pins look ok inside?,left one is the tip, so you may need to hold it down or clean the connection.
I hear some users damage it by bending the connection when in their pocket.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy SII (obviously)
Custom Rom: Cyanogen (ICS version - not sure which)
Problem: Some headphones & microphone socket speakers do not work properly with my headphone jack. All x-mini speakers will take ages to work after plugging into the headphone jack, I will usually need to twiddle it around a lot or take it out and plug it in again to get any response. After it does work, twisting the headphone connector will change the volume of the speakers/headphones. This is the same case with 'JVC HAFX1X Xtreme Xplosives In Ear Canal Headphones', these will often not work for a while, and when they do I will have to twiddle the headphone connector to actually get any bass. This is a real annoyance considering I cannot have my phone in my pocket without the headphone connector getting taped and me losing the bass in my music.
Things I've tried so far: Checking the headphone jack for traces of dust/fluff, cleaning the headphone jack using a cotton bud
As a side note, the only headphones that do work perfectly every time are the 'Sony MDR-V150 headphones'
Any help or suggestions will be appreciated, thanks.
Bump.
bump again :/
I'm having trouble with my headphone jack. Audio only comes out if I start the sound on the speaker and then plug in. If I start with the headphones in I get nothing. Its odd. Running the new AOKP. Has been an issue since before that though. Not the usual static or tight jack problem.
Hi, the plug of my headphones that came with the phone was bent a few weeks ago and at first there was no problem. But after a while the audio stopped working in one of the earphones so i tried with a different set of headphones, just to discover that with them the audio is completely distorted. My guess is that the bent headphones damaged the inside of my phone's jack.
Does anyone knows how to fix the phone's jack?

what is your exact problem?? the audio came distorced or the audio jack dont play any sound trought it??
if they come distorced i belive you really damage your 3,5mm headphone jack, so the fix is to replace it (hope you dont damage the DAC too because they could happen).
- if one pair of headphones dont look good then you need to know to avoid use it, you now know that! i dont really know what the problem could be but, in worst case you damage the phone itself!

The problem is distorced audio (with good headphones)
And what do you mean by damaging the DAC?

V10 have a dedicated audio chip, if you get the sound distorced with the Hi-Fi option turned on maybe the DAC is damaged, if dont try to insert the headphones and turn on the hi-fi option in your quick toogles.
I don¨t use my headphones very often with my phone but when I do I always have problems. Putting it all the way in, I only get sound from one headphone/speaker. Pulling it out and then in again and the phone speakers stars sounding. Rotating the headphone connector and pulling it out and putting it back in usually resolves the issue after a while. I have cleaned my jack with alcohol and compressed air but this doesn't seem to make any difference. And the headphone jack can't possible be worn. Anyone else had this problem?
I´m having the same issue, hopefully we´ll get some reply with a fix.
