Hello.
I just got Skullcandy FIX Bud headphones. After plugging them in everything seems to work, I can listen music, hear ringtones. However after first attempt make a phone call, SGS3 starts acting like no headphones are connected, all sounds being routed through normal speaker or speakerphone. I have to unplug the headphones and plug them back in to restore the sound.
Have anyone experienced anything like this?
Faulty headphones or something wrong with the phone?
P.S.
I've tested two other headphones I have (one is a fake Skullcandy FIX Bud, another some Panasonic from RadioShack), both of them working fine with no issues...

Hello all.
I have this annoying issue and seen this posted elsewhere. Currently I am running Airborne TB rom (it was doing this before the rom flash). When I am plugged into the headphone jack, and I receive a call, I have to unplug the headphones or the caller cannot hear me. On all of the other Androids I have had (4), I could leave the jack plugged in and just answer the call. The caller would play over my truck radio and I could just talk. They could hear me just fine. Now I have to answer and hit speakerphone (which is horrible when in a cradle) for the caller to hear me. I am sure this is by design. If the Airborne TB RC1B1 Rom dev could see this, maybe they could fix it.. AWESOME ROM with GREAT support..
thanks..

yea ive had the same problem....i was just hoping for a fix for at least until my z-130 comes in....BT FTW
I'm on a stock TB and realized this the other day.
I loved getting calls over the cars speakers with my old tp2...
i got some iphone headphones (klipsh promedia S4 headphones) that have inline volume, call answer and mic. I found it weird i could not use it on this phone since i can use it on a bb with no issues.... so this can be "fixed" via a different rom? i thought this phone just didnt support it? I CAN use the play/pause button
only..but no volume or mic
if this can be added, i got one more reason to root this phone.
I assume it is because the phone thinks we have a wired headset (mic and headphones) in.
so it may have to wait untill we get kernel goodness.

Doesn't work on a wired headset either; I tried Bose and iPhone earbuds.
I am hoping the Dev for Airborne fixes it the Rom. I really like the speed and battery life with this rom. This rom has amazing support!!!
Thanks.>

I am sure it will eventually get fixed...
These Devs are really good..

I am having a problem hearing since i rooted,but everyone can hear me fine.
same issues here, my droid 1, droid 2 and incredible worked when just plugged into an aux cable in the car. The thunderbolt turns off the mic when i plug in the aux making it imposible to talk to a caller over the car speakers with an aux cable. I really hope there is a way to fix this with a rom. It seams like such a little thing but it could be a deal breaker. Dont feel like using buying a bluetooth hard wire hit $200+.
Does anyone know how to have call audio come through the headphone jack when plugged into my headphones while allowing the use of the internal mic for my voice?
I am coming for epic touch 4g that used to do it automatically when I had my headphones plugged in, but now people on the other of the call cannot hear my voice through the internal mic. I am guessing the phone thinks I have a headset with a mic, which I don't, so it turn off the internal mic.
Thoughts?
Thanks!

Had the same problem on my Samsung Captivate. I think the headphone jack is slightly different and causes this. I've heard of it being fixed in custom roms though.

Bummer. I went searching through the call settings and did not find anything so this is sounding more like the case..
I actually have the opposite problem and have a headset with a mic, but the voice isn't being transmitted at all.
I can hear them no problem, but they can't hear me. Seems to work fine with the stock earbuds but not with my other headset (which worked fine on my S2).

So with stock ear buds the people can here you through the internal mic? What type of headphones are you using?

Exactly. I'm using my Beats by Dre with the ControlTalk cable. Again, no problems on the S2, just on the Note
Me too
I have the same problem with my Captivate. When I plug in a headphone to listen to music and I receive a call, I cannot take the call using audio output as my headphones and internal phone built in mic for the input.
Has anyone found a solution to that yet ?
--Update.
I'm on Slimbean 4.2.2 and surprisingly it seems to work now.
I have a Sprint Galaxy S3 and I have a pair of headphones with a mic. When I have the headphones plugged in and trying to make a phone call, the call audio plays through the phones speakers and not the headphones. When the call is over and the headphones are still plugged in the headphones no longer play audio. Audio plays through the phones speaker. I have to unplug and plug the head phones back in.
Anyone have this same problem ?
Its very strange but the only headphones I have found that work perfectly with the S3 are the included ones. I also have Ultimate Ears and Sure headphones with mics but they dont play well with the S3.
Have you tried the included ones? This does not solve your problem but out of curiosity.
Hi guys,
I need your advice here. I love the music capability of the v10. So my headphones is plugged in the phone all the time while listening to music. However, I noticed that 30% of the time when I receive/make phone calls the mic would just stop working. If I unplug my headphone and replug it back, about 50% of the time it will work again. The other 50% the phone call would end when I unplug my headphones. During all these scenarios the mic would work under speaker mode.
Is this a software issue?? Coz the mic obviously work flawlessly when the phone is unplugged or when it's on speaker mode. Would reboot the phone solve this problem or should I send this unit back to lg??
Thanks in advanced for your help!
I'm having the exact same problem you are. This happened to me once before and it just sort of fixed itself after a while. Do you see a weird little headphone chord icon at the top of your screen? If you do, it means that your phone thinks that a headset is plugged in when it's not, thus not allowing sound - such as music - to output from your external speaker. Mine doesn't even play music through headphones or allow me to hear anyone while making calls if I don't use speaker phone - the person I'm calling can't even hear me.
This is such a faulty issue - and a rarely known or talked about one at best. I'd take it up to your local carrier store and see what they say.
Mic prpblem even without headphone plug-in.

Thanks for the reply. I think I will contact LG. However, today I hada mic problem without pluggingin my headphones
Now I know the phone's mic works ~80% of the time. When it works, it works flawlessly. So, do you guys think this might be a software problem??
Hi!
I'm having some strange issues reggarding the use of headphones.
Recently I bough a pair of Razer Hammerhead pro v2 headphones from a retailer. They are brand new, and work just fine in other cellphones (Motorola or LG) and even my computer.
But, as it turns out, they do not work properly on my phone.
Let me elaborarte: I already have a pair of Philips headphones with a dedicated play/stop music button and microphone, and they work just fine with the cellphone. But, whenever I plug my new headphones on the phone, the "headphones with mic" icon shows once on my notification screen and then just banishes, leaving me with an icon that looks like a pair of "regular headphones", not recognizing the mic. or buttons.
I've read some people online experiencing the same issue as me. And, even though you can ACTUALLY hear a conversation or music with the headphones, the mic. and buttons just don't work. Is almost as if they were non existent to the phone.
I've already tried different apps that allow you to mock you cellphone to bypass this issue, but they don't work.
Any suggestions?

AGREE. Also, if you can check that if you keep pressing the handsfree jack down, the mic works???

Yeaj, I tried that already but it doesnt work. And it wont work because I think that this is a MIUI related problem.
Any suggestions?
My mic works if I keep the handsfree jack at a certain position or keep pressing it. May be it's a hardware problem or handsfree problem. Who knows!!!

My issue is SOLVED.
Turns out there was dust settled down in the jack.
SOLUTION: Take an ear bud, dip it in petrol and clean the headphone jack with it.
Thanks for your thread as it helped me in getting to the root cause of the problem :good:

I've already tried that one, and had no ressult. I cleaned it as soon as I got the problem, but it keeps happening
So for me, the problem is still ongoing
As I stated before, I can hear my headphones, but both mic. And buttons don't work.
Try using a different recording app and or music player, see if that helps.
