Headphones icon not displaying - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys, first of all i tried searching the forums but i found no solutions. So i don't really wanted to post it but here's the problem:
I'm using Rootbox 1.7 with DarkKnight Kernel 3.0.36 and the problem i'm having is that when you plug in the samsung headset the icon in the statusbar never shows up but the headphones work like they usually do.
I tried checking every app as if that was the problem and also trying another rom (RR latest ics release). But no solution was found.
So thanks in adv for any help recieved. (if i missed something on the search pls point me in the right direction)
Thanks again.

This is normal, there is nothing strange. Just get on with it

There's no solution for this I've also have no headphone logo when the earphone is plugged in

! HELP ! Audio (Headset) output problem

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.

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

WIFI Madness - Samsung Galaxy S III i9300 (International)

Hello everybody, this is my first post in XDA.
I'm in a dead end with my phone, and after checking the whole forum and of course googling for an answer I can't find, here I am.
I've got a Samsung S3 i9300 (Int) which was functioning perfectly well with Ultima ROM 10.1. Now I tried to move on to 11.0 and found out my WIFI stopped working. Actually, it's able to connect to a non secured network but is unable to cope with wpa2 for instance. For some reason, it tags every network as WPS and fails to connect every time.
Strangely, I tried with a couple of other ROMs (Omega 44.2, Slim, NeatROM) and I have the exact same problem.
But if I move back to CyanogenMod 10.1 or stock, it works perfectly.
Can anyone help me out here?
THANKS!!
I had this exact same problem and banged my head against the wall over it and ended using just wpa, when I get time I'm going to attack the problem again though!

Well yes, but having this amazing phone and having trouble to connect to WIFI on a bar or something... sounds way too un-cool for me!
I hope someone has a solution for this,.. or at least a hint!
Have you tried using custom kernels such as Perseus or Siyah.
The kernel includes the Wifi drivers but not the wpa_supplicant so it should !e easy to pinpoint what causes it.
Also a logcat would be nice.

I had a look at that post, and I've tried most of those without any luck, and the one I haven't tried like an extreme wipe, I'm not willing to. I know it's not flawless logic what I'm going to say, but I think that if it works with some ROMs, it can't be solved by wiping.

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

If your rooted, flash boeffla sound drivers. Look them up from google.
If all fails. Then flash stock Rom
Good luck!
