So. Is there any way (software) to make phone "think", that jack is empty, when it isn't? I need headphones plugged in as antenna for fm radio and the sound going through speaker. Now i'm using half lacquered plug so the phone can't see it.
Sorry for my English.

I had this exact problem the other day!!!! No matter what I did it wouldn't work, tried flashing new ROMs, different headphones etc. So I replaced the jack and it worked, took 10mins and only cost £4!
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Samsung-G...K_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item3f156a393c That's the part you need for a GT-i9100, no idea if it any different for the G version or American versions of this phone though

Hope this helps

I think you didn't understand me right (probably it's my fault). I have no problems with my jack. I meant
I need headphones plugged in as antenna for fm radio and I need the sound going through speaker but it's going through headphones as it should
i'm using half lacquered plug so the phone can't see it (as it shoud because the plug is lacquered by me for this)

And what I'm searching is the way (maybe some edit in /sys/devices or something else) to make (by myself) my phone "think", that there is no plugged in headphones when there is. If I understand you right, I need to simulate your problem (reversibly).
Doesn't anybody know?
There's an option in the FM radio settings to output audio through the speaker...

Wow, you really can multitask! Hold a phone conversation and listen to music at the same time.. Anyway, Can't do that on the hero. The music stops playing and the call takes priority.

ha bro, i didnt mean that..
My question was since my own 3.5mm earphone doesnt have mic, would it be using the phone's mic when there is an incoming call?
From my experience with diamond/g1, when using a 3.5mm adaptor (doesnt have mic) with my earphones, the phone's mic is disabled. so if there is a call, i would have to unplug it and talk like normal.
I would like to check if hero is smart enuff to enable the phone's mic when using normal earphones..
Ok- got mine and this is how it goes

I have run this phone connected to the 3.5mm jack in the car with music and satnav running and taken a call at the same time. Hope that helps
I know what you mean dude. This is a similar thing I had on my Ameo. When a phonecall comes in & you have your 3.5mm earphones in the speaker sound comes through the earphones & the phones mic becomes active, allowing you to use your phone a bit like a CB radio.

For the G2 touch on t-mobile uk - yes. Obviously I cant comment on other set ups but you would expect the same

I have an issue concerning my fm radio..it doesnt get any fm channel nor brings out sound..I also tried to set some preset channel; but nothing happened!!
Helps will be appreciated. .thanks in advance
You do have headphones plugged in right? They act as the antenna. Although you can toggle it so the sound comes out of the built in speaker, but the wire still has to be connected.
This should also be in the Q&A section.

That means that my Headphones are not supported?
Sony or Apple in-ear are working. Should I buy a cable without buttons and without a microphone?

Oh, sorry, my fault. I thought it's a bluetooth headset... So if it's a cable headphone then there is possibility that the jack has different layout than the sony headsets.
Or the other possibility is that because of something the jack plug is can't be connected (this could happen because of the root of the jack is too bulky)
Up
Also for me.. :S no one knows how to fix it?

Before, on Stock ICS and Gimly Firmware (based on ICS), it worked. But than there was a massage saying 'Microphone and buttons are not supported.' or something like this. But it worked!
I bought a new cable without buttons and without a microphone, now my headphones are working! How can I fix it, that I can listen to musik via the original Beats cable? My new cable looks ugly
Is it posible to get fm radionto play through the phone speaker?
The headphone cord is actually the antenna for the FM radio. So you'd need some other cord to act as an antenna. Have you tried using a regular patch cable (plug on both ends)?
Thank you very much
Will it play through the phone speaker though?

Hi, the plug of my headphones that came with the phone was bent a few weeks ago and at first there was no problem. But after a while the audio stopped working in one of the earphones so i tried with a different set of headphones, just to discover that with them the audio is completely distorted. My guess is that the bent headphones damaged the inside of my phone's jack.
Does anyone knows how to fix the phone's jack?

what is your exact problem?? the audio came distorced or the audio jack dont play any sound trought it??
if they come distorced i belive you really damage your 3,5mm headphone jack, so the fix is to replace it (hope you dont damage the DAC too because they could happen).
- if one pair of headphones dont look good then you need to know to avoid use it, you now know that! i dont really know what the problem could be but, in worst case you damage the phone itself!

The problem is distorced audio (with good headphones)
And what do you mean by damaging the DAC?

V10 have a dedicated audio chip, if you get the sound distorced with the Hi-Fi option turned on maybe the DAC is damaged, if dont try to insert the headphones and turn on the hi-fi option in your quick toogles.
