Hi all , since yesterday I noticed on my i9100 a very strange problem with my audio output. Let me describe the problem: When I plug the original headset from the S2 box , I hear the sound is like under water and when i plug in a normal earphones without a microphone (with two rings only) there is no sound. I dont know what should I do , I mean , I tried to flash some other firmware like the Sammy XWLPG but nothing changed. Btw I am running the latest CM9 nightlies with latest Siyah kernel and i never noticed such a problem before. After all I think its a hardware problem but the phone is branded to T-mobile and it would take 1 month i think when it comes back from the Samsung service center. Thank you for answers.
Just give your phone to SSC, not T-Mobile. It will be faster.

I'm looking as well, but I'm afraid no kernel currently implements it
I have read that KF1 support it,
Can anyone confirm?
same problem... newest lite'ning rom.. KE3 Kernel.... for the Galaxy 1 exist a app in the market but it dosent work for the SGS2.

That is false because the purpose of the app is to redirect media audio to the dock. Call audio is not redirected as well.
KF1 supports it? I'm on KG6 (VillainRom) and I won't change to KF until pulser updates the ROM.
Can someone confirm that?
I am looking for the same solution for (official) car dock AND desktop dock. All sounds go through line-out except calls which is kind of a stupid oversight by Samsung.
What I'd like is option to have all audio through the 'line-out' of the official docks
Option to have FM work via the same
Option to have the phone operate like a radio alarm when in the desktop dock
1 question though. My phone died on me tonight and when I got back to the car I put it in my dock which made it turn on right away. I got to input my pin, then I saw it was charging but it switched off and restarted and kept on going (off->on for 15secs-> off).. I figured it was because it was running out of battery faster than it was charging it - ridiculous since I wasn't doing anything with the phone. So I had to unplug the car charger cable from the back of the dock, put it in my dead phone for 5mins then replug everything in again.
Samsung needs to look into that seriously...
Edit: I'm running 2.3.4 XXKG5 atm
Where can I place clarification request from Samsung to support phone calls into the Dock?
I will donate 25$ to the one that will make it work
Anyone else ?
Not sure about $25 but I'd donate a few dollars if someone can make the voice and radio be passed through the usb line out while using the existing apps.
Who knows how long it will take Samsung to implement a feature which I am surprised doesn't already work.
I have used my phone connected through the headphone output to my car stereo and made phone calls using the car speakers for the voice feedback and the internal phone mic for my voice. And it worked really well with no echoing at all which surprised me. I thought with the added volume through the speakers that feedback issue would occur but it didn't appear so. Maybe the secondary mi helps with the eco cancellation.
this problem still persists with XWKI4 stock rom. call audio outputs fine through the headphone jack on the phone itself, but refuses to route through the dock. with all of other audio going fine through usb, i'm inclined to think that it's a bug and can be fixed.
And the problem is also present in XWKI8...
I'd also be more than happy to donate to any dev prepared to look into getting the call audio rooted through the line out. I've been reading into it a little bit and apparently it is likely to be something that can be changed with a modded kernel. Unfortunately I have no developer experience and wouldn't even know where to start.

Hi there,
I bought the galaxy s2 2 weeks back..and the problem that I am facing is whenever i use headphones for the music, after like 10 secs my phone hangs for some reason! I even return the set to samsung service centre they change the entire motherboard and everything but the problem is still there!!
Please Advise!
Thanks
Hani
I have the same problem too...i have to remove the battery and set it up again for rebooting....
I have no idea how to fix that but i think it's a ROM bug and updating to ICS will solve the problem

try any third party applications and check problem remains or not...
eg : trail versions of Power Amp or Player Pro
What ROM are you using? Stock or a modded one and GB (gingerbread) or ICS (ice-cream sandwich). Because modded versions have different fixes for them to get things to run stable.
PS
What strikes me strange about your post is you said you brought this to a Samsung service center and they replaced your motherboard.
This implies it's not a ROM/software problem.
Did you buy a used phone? Also I don't know any official Samsung Centers that will replace the mobo for you. They usually replace the phone for some hardware problems like that (but it's possible I guess).
**Because if the service center replaced it, and you still have that problem, then they either didn't do a good job (because they should have tested it to work), or you have some bad ROM flash.

Yes they do well posted on XDA .

Thats probably true as well .
OP suggest wipe phone and flash stock GB rom to test .
Of course it could be your music is the problem .

I had the exactly same problem plus bunch of others which led to service trip.
Phone went to local service center and came back repaired, only to work for two days.
They changed the earphone jack and speaker modules on the first run.
Second time it had to be sended to service it had problems witn wifi and bt.
They changed mobo.
Third time proximity and lightsensors didn't work so they replaced the phone.
Last time my phone hung, the problem was my modded earphones.
I ripped the original samsung earbuds and replaced them with KOSS portapro's.
I had miss-soldered positive and negative on other earpiece... I changed the polarity, and now everything works.
Mysterious...
Thanks for the info JJEgan on the mobo replacements. I guess it's a region/location thing. I traverse mostly from Taiwan and Japan, and they just replace units with any hardware problems after they check it.
Back to the OP:
The music plays fine when earphones not plugged in right? I asked a friend who works at a service center here and he says it can be either the earphone jack is faulty or not connected properly (inside case), or maybe you didn't insert your earphones all the way (lol that's a stretch but never know).

Have you tried another ROM, restore backup etc. In short, what measures have you taken on your own to troubleshoot this problem.
- yes, the phone uses another means/ Mic when you are using loud speaker

Unfortunatly i was out of the country when it happened so i was never able to claim warranty on the phone or anything so i've had to live with it.
I have tried everything i can think of to try and fix it. Different ROMS, diferent kernals, different modems. nothing has fixed it.
One thing to note, is that when i have headphones in, the mic is fine. Would the be some trickery i could pull to make the phone always use the loudspeaker microphone, even when in handset mode.
current rom is paranoid android 1.99 w/ dorimanx kernal.
i think that lower mic is used when speaker is off , but in speaker phone it uses the the upper mic.

Sorry about that.
Your own case looks like a definite hardware issue. Too bad you are out of country but if you can still visit any Samsung service center, you might be lucky. Those guys are always very nice and helpful to customers in my country even if you are out of warranty.

I've not flashed a newer ROM to see if is that yet as its my wife's phone and I've not had time to back it up before I flash.
I have the same phone and not had this problem
I've also posted in the neat ROM thread and no one has had the same issue
So if there is two mics do you think it could be broken

Since its your woman's phone and you can't probably flash a new ROM at this moment, fine.
I'll say, let's assume it's as hardware issue.
I'll advise flash back your stock original or officially update firmware, And just send it to service center for repairs like normal warranty claim.
Good luck

thnx bro am already do that as you say but i have Q is the service code can fix it
Four different sets used already and flashed stock so default settings already set. Depends were you are. Me I would go to local shop and get a good price from there. But ebay is cheap. I dont trust it though. No service code will fix hardware mate

I have this problem too, went through two sets of headphones, one new phone and one replacement part and the problem still happening In order to make it work I have to jiggle the connection in the phone till the sound comes on, then it will randomly just stop, no sound or it will just be crackly
Bad connection that is. Wiggle said it all. Replace or have the port looked at.

That seems really strange. May I please ask did you flash with odin or do you use something else? Are you using the default stock samsung rom or are you using a custom samsung rom? It may be a problem with the software, but I'm having a feeling that your headphone jack might be faulty (but i think its more to do with software). Try using a custom stock based rom like neatrom (by sale) if you haven't already used it yet.
Yes, i used odin and flashed stock rom
I thought that my headphone jack is broken, but i changed it, but problem didnt disapear
Ok, i will try flash some custom rom, thank you for your reply

Then probably something wrong with the earphone jack. I can't really help with that since I never seen this kind of issue before. You will just need to find a workaround and stay with that for now.

But i changed the earphone jack, and still the same problem, so i just dont know if this is software or hardware problem
I think there's an issue with the jack connector on the motherboard. Look for shorts and/or dust.
In the meantime, use SoundAbout to fix the problem
