Headphone jack.. jacked - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, my headphone jack seems to be broken, I can only hear volume in one ear, or not at all, unless I hold it in a certain, strange angle.
I've tried with a few different headsets, and it's the same thing. Problem is my phone is rooted, does that mean I'm screwed, and I have to pay a crapload to get it fixed?
Thanks

Are u sure....

Are you 100% sure that you audio jack is broken...and not the earphone?...try another pair of earbuds.

Yeah, I've tried 3 headsets. Including my beloved sennheiser, all work fine on my PC.

Hey,
Got the same issue here.
And it's my second phone already (first had an issue with a screen).
I've called Samsung already (in Poland) and the guy there told me that "they have never faced such an issue with smartphone" - right...
I'll bringing my phone to Samsung just after my vacations and hope it will not take them a long time to fix it.
Generally speaking I have a feeling that Samsung's quality control is very poor.

I had this exact same issue and it was from start, and Samsung refused to replace it. Had to buy a new one even though I didn't want to buy another Samsung after how they treated me for the first time.......

That's odd. I've had the same exact issues before but it was always the earphones/headphones fault

Well this may be a long shot but try cleaning the jack with fine tip cotton bud moistened with cleaning alcohol. Make sure your phones switched off with battery out until it dries

Hmm, worth trying.

I returned mine under warranty for repair. No issues since.

Well.. mine is rooted, so I guess that leaves that out for me, right?

Unroot it, that basically means following these steps:
- Take a CWM Nandroid backup of your phone for easy restore when getting it back
- Use the app 'Triangle Away' to reset the binary flash counter
- Go to samfirmware.com and download your official ROM, then flash it through Odin
- Go to Samsung's standard recovery and factory-reset the phone. (Warning: will delete your whole phone!)
- Make sure Device Status is not 'Modfied', and return it for warranty

[Q] In-Call Voice Quality Better on Rooted EVO3D With Flashed ROMs?

I've already tried changing the codecs (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194947&highlight=voice+quality) and am just shy of taking a triangle file to the mic opening on my case.. (or exchanging the phone at Sprint)...
So.. My question is.. Has anyone who has had bad call quality with the stock ROM, then rooted their phones and flashed new ROMs have any issues with call quality with the new ROMs?
I'm avoiding taking my phone back as it is a magnificent piece of hardware, however my wife is ready to do it for me if I can't get the call quality improved.

I feel your pain! I took my 3VO back within the 30 days because of the "muffled mic" problem. My favorite tech gave me a brand new one, no questions asked. But, I still have my husband complaining, as well as some friends. I haven't tried changing the codecs, though. I did root my phone and install TWRP recovery. I haven't flashed a ROM, yet, though. So I can't tell you if a custom ROM will work. I am going to try the triangle file, though. Probably today. I had thought part of the problem was my case, which is the Best Buy Platinum. It's made by Seidio. But, taking it off makes no difference. So, I will try filing the back of my Evo. I will report back. I'm also going to choose and flash a ROM this weekend. I was just waiting for a chance to get a Class 10 16GB sdcard from my local Microcenter. I'm just hoping it's a REAL Class 10...
I guess you can try exchanging your 3VO. Just letting you know I had the same problem with the second one.
My husband says he has no problem hearing me from my 3d, but he always sounds muffled when we talk. I'm going to root his 3d this weekend and probably file the mic hole. I've done both of those things to mine already. Nobody complains about my voice quality -- before or after root -- but his is horrible.

Hmm.. Well, I guess it won't help to exchange it then.. Sucks because I use it for business as well and my clients that are located in Colorado had made a comment about it.
Maybe filing open the mic hole and/or flashing a ROM will do the trick (or any combination thereof)

Just wondering if you file the mic hole and if it helped? I changed the codecs, but that didn't do anything for me. I've tried taking off the back of my phone, but that doesn't seem to help the muffled mic issue for me. So, I figure if taking off the back won't help, filing the hole won't either. Might be time to talk to my Sprint tech friend...
Can you keep us posted?

Along with changing the codecs did you also try the volume adjustment threw qpst?? Also if you decide to try the mod check out volume + "plus" ver.1.7. Imo it works great.

What settings did you use with Volume+? I tried it, but didn't hear any difference. I'm wondering if HTC used more than one brand of mic in our 3VOs? We know they used at least 2 different screens. Maybe one mic has higher gain and the kernel is set so that the mic in our phones is squelched? I asked my Sprint tech friend if HTC might address the problem with an update, but he said HTC would have to see it as a problem. Apparently not very many people have complained, at least not to Sprint. Sorry for the long, rambling post.
I tried some tests today. It makes no difference if I'm holding my phone, I'm still muffled. If I plug in my wired headset, my voice is much louder. If I used a voice recorder application, rather than make a call, my voice is louder too. Of course the voice recorder application might have the gain turned up in case you're trying to record something that is not right by the mic.

At first I was mad that you suggested this. But, I tried holding my phone vertically in front of my mouth, with the mic right in front of my mouth. Voila! The other person can actually hear me. Now to figure out how I can hold it so I can hear them, as well. Normally I hold my phone where the speaker is loudest for my ear and angle it towards my mouth, so the mic is near it. Too bad the modification to file out the hole on the back of the phone near the mic doesn't seem to help...

Accessory not supported (headset)

Hi!
I know this topic has been written about countless times! I know this because I've read most of these threads (atleast the ones I could find), but my case seems to be different..
Last year, all of a sudden, I couldn't use my stock SE headphones. It seems that when I dropped the phone in the snow, something happened.
Now, I can use any kind of headset once, every 24 hours or so... If I take them out, and then put them in again, I get a pop-up telling me the accessory is not supported.
I tried changing the ROM, hoping it would work (using miniCM7pro atm), but I still got the same problem. I really don't like the fact of turning the phone in for a repair since I had to wait 3 months when I turned in my charger that stopped working all of a sudden..
So I'm wondering... Is there any other tweak/ solution or anything that I can do to fix this?
Thanks in advance,

That looks like hardware related problem. i hope someone here will come up with some answer for this....
I don't think there is an easy fix for what you're experiencing. but here's a few steps you could take.
Make sure there is nothing in the headphone jack that shouldn't be in there (bits of dirt/grit)
Make sure none of the contacts appear damaged. There should be 4 contact points inside the jack socket (exluding headset controls)
but i think the phone will ultimately need to be sent for repair

Hi! And thanks for your replies,
I'm not quite sure how I'm able to see the fourth one, since it's way too deep down, but I can see three of them.
Even if it will ultimately need to be sent for repair, I want to do my best to try and fix it before I send it in, since I really hate the thought of sending it in and then wait for three months. I'd rather buy an mp3 player, or and iPod or something in that case.

They will send it to you as soon as the parts arrive....dont worry. better you replace or repair it before it does a big problem.

Haha!
I'll see what I'll do. Worst case scenario, I'll re-install the original ROM and un-root, and then send it in. But I do want to try and fix it myself first.
Got one more year on my warranty, so time's not a real problem if I don't succeed..
Nanashidri,
at least you considered to unroot and go to stock before giving it.
i just gave it so those dummies at SE centers so they will go crazy seeing me running 2.3.7 on this phone, and they did go psycho! i indeed was laughing cause they started asking me silly questions, "how did you get this in this phone" and such questions.
i simply answered as i was roaming the internet and i did what you could not do....and they where dumb after that....funny funny (i came home and couldnt resist laughing at this matter).
my phone had camera function and my phone restarts after using it. so it was a hardware problem but they never understood it. in retaliation they just flashed the original 2.1. and for two weeks they still never got it right. i went inside the engineers room and recreated the problem. their eyes opened and tubelights switched on in their heads. at last they changed the main board and now it works!! see?
funny things happen....so dont worry. get yours changed when you still have warranty.
keep it up bro!
And this sorry ericsson is going better as "SONY" from next year! no more ericsson!

[Q] Broken microphone, or is there any hope?

Suddenly people can't hear me anymore when doing a voicecall.
First I thought it was a problem with my carrier. But I noticed that things as Shazam and SoundHound don't recognize any sound either...
It looks like my microphone is not working anymore.
Does it mean my microphone is broken, or are there still things I could try?
UPDATE (summary: )
Factory reset, new flash/wipe/update. Does not change anything.
Did the tests in service center: microphone doesn't seem to work. Did the test multiple times and mic didnt record anything. But one time I could hear the sounds but it was extremely silent... Strange.
'2nd mic' in the test menu seems to work better.
What could be the problem in this case?
Try a full wipe/reflash. If that doesn't help, apply for RMA.
Tried a factory reset, wipe. Also an upgrade to .76. Both didn't work.
Guess I have to apply for RMA

Thanks. Just tried this. When playing the recorded sound it is silent. So there the microphone didn't seem to work either.
UPDATE:
Tried again. Louder. And now I could hear the sounds once! But the volume is very low... Hmm what could be going on?
Also I tried the '2nd microphone' test. That one seems to work better.
Maybe flash another firmware,if no send it to service.

Hey, I had the same problem. It may be a long shot but try this. Take some canned air and blow out your headphone jack. For myself, it seems that somehow, some way, there was something in there (perhaps dust, lint) that was causing the phone to not switch the primary microphone back on from headset mode.

(I really hoped that was not needed. Because the people who work at the repair company don't have any knowledge. The chance is big they send the device back after doing a factory reset... They did the same when my Nokia N8 was broken, 3 times!!! Wish me luck guys!)

Just as I feared:
Got the device back, UNrepaired. Had to pay 85 euro's and they didn't repair anything. I had no warranty because I had modified software (I guess the unlocked bootloader). Totally unrelated but for them enough reason not to do anything but ask a lot of money instead.

After ICS update caller can't hear my voice

Hi all, after the ICS update yesterday, when someone calls or I call out, the other person can't hear my voice. I can plug in ear buds, with built-in mic and the other person can hear my voice ok. Wondering if there's a conflict somehow with the speakerphone? Been over the sound settings several times and can't find anything that applies. Any ideas or fixes? Thanks much

Interesting. I've not run in to that yet. I am unable to use MHS with hidden ssid, I hate that quick look up is gone, and facebook was added. Just a few minor things but overall I like it.

If your microphone stopped working immediately after the OTA, I'd call Verizon and have someone look at it and replace it.
If your microphone worked for a little while after the OTA, chances are your microphone just decided to give out.
Either way, I'd look to get it replaced. If its stock and unrooted, there's absolutely no reason for the microphone giving out to be your fault unless it has possible water damage.
Try checking the headphone jack with a bright light for something stuck down in the headphone jack.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
RBarnett, thanks for the reply. The phone was working properly (my voice out) worked fine before the OTA update. No water damage. Just too much of a coincidence for the phone microphone to stop working immediately after the OTA, to my way of thinking. Sounds like good advice to have Verizon check it out.
No mic on Thunderbolt after ICS and app installs
Exact same issue here.
I updated my stock, undamaged, 2 year old, Verizon HTC Thunderbolt to Ice Cream Sandwich(ICS) last Tuesday evening. That evening I found out my phone mic was not working. Callers could not hear me, but all else was fine. Speaker phone did work. Love the Bolt and ICS looks and feels great.
I went to the local Verizon store and the guy did some online research and found no known or reported issues. He said that it must be coincidental that the mic stopped working after the ICS update. He cleaned the mic area and the headphone jack, assuming crud may have been disabling the mic. Nothing seemed to fix the problem.
They ordered a replacement under warranty and it arrived the next day. I activated it and proceeded to reload all my apps, again assuming that the mic issue must be coincidental. After many hours tweaking the phone to my needs and setting up all apps I found that the mic did not work.
Thursday I took both to the Verizon store and another rep played with it and could not find the cause. Only options were to upgrade, or try another replacement. I had no reason to replace my previously fully functioning Bolt. They ordered a second refurb that arrived yesterday. Before downloading any apps I was only going to activate it and make sure the mic worked. I never got that far. The second refurb had a malfunctioning screen that was unacceptable to me.
So off to the store I went with three Bolts.
They agreed the 2nd one should never have been sent out with the poor screen.
This time I talked with a female rep. She actually just upgraded from a Thunderbolt and was well versed. We decided to wipe the first refurb back to factory and the mic now was working. I took it home, started downloading my apps and after a few hours and nearly done I found the phone mic to be inoperable again. The speaker mic worked fine.
Assuming an app was disabling my phone mic I wiped it back to factory and reactivated. I checked and the mic is now working again. I assume one of my apps is conflicting with the mic mute. I have been downloading a few apps at a time and the mic is still working. Only about 15% of the previously downloaded apps are now on my Bolt. I just don’t know what app, or when my mic may go mute.
Long, ongoing story, but I thought I would post to see if anyone has any ideas, or similar issues after ICS update. Thanks in advance.

By "new replacement" you mean a new Thunderbolt, or replacement by a different phone? Probably be a frickin Apple knowing my bad luck...lol
I was actually surprised they updated the Bolt considering you can't even get accessories at a Verizon store any longer. And supplies are limited online.

Hey, a big THANKS, for that detailed reply! I guess misery loves company! Yep, that is the problem. The only work around I've found is to use head phones or ear buds. But you can't just plug in buds or phones and expect them to work for phone calls. They have to have a built in mic. Mine is a Dynex Adapter. It has the mic and a button switch for switching to a call if you're listening to music or radio. The adapter is about 5" long and costs about $10 as I recall. At least that makes the phone usable again until a better solution comes along.
Like you, I thought I might have a rogue app and started removing any app with an audio or sound component. So far no luck. Please let me know if you come across a solution and I'll do the same. Thanks again for posting.

I have read elsewhere about a similar issue. In that post it mentioned that once you get the rogue mic mute the only fix is a factory wipe. I have had to wipe phones 5 times since ICS update last Tuesday. I tried uninstalling app by app but never got the mic back without a wipe. I need a phone, more than I need all the apps. I do miss some but am adding them back slowly.
Same here. They are sending me a replacement and we'll see what happens. I'm personally hoping this 2nd one has the same issue and just seeing if I can upgrade mine to another phone. >.>
Being a total dumb ass concerning programming phones, this problem appears to be software rather than hardware related. Could a developer create a small app to simply reset or clear the mic status? I'm probably oversimplifying, but it looks like an HTC or Verizon developer could fix this problem in a matter of minutes. Rendering a fine phone useless after an OS update seems kind of ridiculous, imo. Any suggestions or thoughts?
So far none of the rooted users that didnt take the ota but rather used the flash able haven't reported this issue. It is possible that its a combination of hardware and software where the new software didn't fill the gap for your hardware. It is well known that no two thunderbolts are alike and they all react differently to the software.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
Good point Disconnectie. Something, whether hardware or software, rendered my perfectly working Tbolt, basically unusable after the OTA. I wonder now if the Emergency Call function is working? Don't think I'll make an emergency call to test.

Issues with bottom holes ????

Hi all!
First of, my device did sometimes not fast charge, only regular charge.. No matter witch charger or cable combo i used. Sometimes it changes during charging, fast charge-regular-fast etc.
So i was thinking maybe i have some dust or something in the usb hole, so i tried to clean it with compressed air and some piece of plastic.
Now the charging is started with fast charge and after 5min dropped to regular..
And some new problem, the microphone is dead.
Not completely tough, it does record some loud and close enough sounds and when listening the speaker almost in my ear i can hear something, but in call use the other person can not hear anything, except with me speaking with loud speaker mode on. I guess it uses different microphone on then..?
I am open to any suggestion to solve my problem.
I am on vacation one week more so i can't turn to my phone seller with warranty conversation. But i guess that is my best change to get it working, warranty.
I'll see how that goes cause the device bootloader is unlocked.. (rooted and xposed also)
Anyone else had these issues?
Any help please!
Edit. V10D stock rom, rooted and systemless xposed
Got back to stock with v10D..
Allso got bootloader relocked in fastboot with 'fastboot oem lock' command.
The yellow triangle on startup is gone, so now sending it back for warranty->
Edit.
They said at the shop that it will take max. 2weeks... So we will see..
Edit. 2
I tried the camera module at home and the microphone worked perfectly with that, but it didn't regodnize the module buttons at all and didn't charge(normal or fast). So i gave it in for warranty too.
Ok, so today i got call from the shop. They said that the service center has sent them a message that says: we do not have suitable parts to repair the device.. Lg will replace the whole device.
So i got my self a brand new phone and cam module from the shop, in a factory sealed original paggage.
For the lack of development for G5,
I think i am going to sell it and try to manage with my old Zenfone2 till Nexus release :fingers-crossed:
