[Q] Headphone jack - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

So I recently noticed that when i plug in an aux cable (and headphones) it take no force to take it out. It Kind of Just slips out. I also dont think it goes in all the way. Is Anyone having or had this problem? i listen to music all the time so im thinking about getting a replacemt if mine is the only one doing it. It is verizon.

I have the Verizon version and just tried it. I had to push it pretty hard until it clicked in. Try that and see if it works for you.

I have the Sprint one, and I definitely need to use more effort than I expected to remove the cable. Yours might be defective.

there's 3 various volume settings - the first one is for the ringer - when you plug in your headphones, the media volume activates once you select a video (ie youtube) - the 3rd is for notifications - when you click the volume rocker click the gears to the right and you will see all 3 to adjust independently of each other.

Headphone Jack issues

Hey everyone just wanted to know if anyone else is having issues with their headphone Jack on the Vibrant? I plug in my headphones but I always have to fiddle with it to get them to work. I have tried multiple headphones to see if this was the problem yet every one I tried the same issue came up.

LMAO same thing happened to me when I first got it
My problem is a little different. I have skull candy headphones with a MIC and sometimes the music will turn on by itself and I'll have to turn it off via the button on the MIC. This happens quite often when it is loud around me or windy(while I am driving). Anyone have a clue why this happens?

Vibrant vibrating nicely now,Kthx!

Audio is pushed through speakers while headphones are plugged in.

I can't seem to get the audio to come 100% through the speakers. Music works fine.

And the alarm won't switch to headphones.. for testing it without waking everyone in the house at night up lol..
I can't wait until CM9 / 10 is released and working...

Quite alarm?

I have the alarm volume up all the way and it still to quiet. Anyone have an idea to solve this with out using another app? I'm using stock Verizon rom and unrooted
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Hmm, quite an alarm.
I'd recommend using the app Alarmdroid. At max volume, it's enough to wake everyone in the house up. It really depends on how deep of a sleeper you are. I'm a really deep sleeper but I can still wake up after like 3-4 minutes of the alarm going off on 50% volume.

From my personal experience with almost every android phone, the stock alarm app is terrible. It's one of those things that you need to replace (e.g. browser) when you get a new phone - But not many people know that the 3rd party alarms are 10x better than stock.
Your problem could probably be because of your speaker or some other factor. Are you sure that you went into settings and made the alarm volume the highest? The low volume would probably be a huge complaint by many users if it happened to everyone. Then again, on my old phone (Evo 3D) the stock alarm wouldn't even go off half the time even at full alarm volume but it wasn't widely known issue.
I downloaded a ringtone from zedge for my alarm, maybe it will be loud . If not I'm going to try another app

Mine is ridiculously low also. The ringer also starts out slow then blows up super loud after a second. I don't get it.

Strange audio issue

this morning I had it hooked up to my aux cable for my car and it wouldn't let me turn up the audio.. was stuck at mute (all the way down).
tried rebooting and still didn't fix it, had to shut it off for a few minutes then restart.. anyone else notice this before?
Sounds like hardware. I haven't heard of that issue elsewhere.

Your ringer is turned off. Is it still there if you turn ringer volume up?

That means your speaker phone is off. It's supposed to represent a Soundwave frequency but looks more like a heartbeat ekg reading. If you turn your speakerphone on it will disappear.

Anybody remember that old tv gameshow called "To Tell the Truth". Here is my input on what that symbol is. It is your Noise Reduction icon. While on a call hit your menu button and I believe you should have an option to turn it on or off. Seriously....that is what it is. Has nothing to do with volume or speakerphone. It changes when you go on speakerphone because it disables on speakerphone I think.

You're the man!
So I'm guessing nose reduction doesn't work with the speaker phone then which is why it disappears.

Yeah, I edited my post to say that at the same time you were posting. Seems the Canadian JB ROM took that feature away so I can't verify 100% myself.
You are definitely right!
