I just purchased the Optimus G and tried inserting Samsung 3.5 Mm earbuds into the phone. No audio came through unless I jammed the connector as far as I could into the phone. I just tried headphones from Jabra and Creative, and the same problem is present. It seems like the jack is not "clicking" when I try to connect the headphones. Does anyone else have this problem? Do I need some special headphones for this thing? I saw another thread that was similar, but the description was not quite the same.
Mine clicks in although it is tight.

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?

Hi,
I have beats by dre and the buttons that came with the wired are similar to the Samsung headphones. What I mean by that is that they both feature volume up and down and the button for switching tracks and answering calls.
However, my problem is that the button in the middle for switching tracks etc works but the volume up and down don't?
Is there a solution for this?

Yeah.... Just burst it open and switch the small cables until it works then screw it back together again. OR you could cut the wire on both samsung earpiece and beats, just switch them around so you got samsung buttons with beats headphones attached, simple!

It's not a problem exclusive to beats though, i think many 3 button headphones have trouble working with android devices. Maybe if you'd care to share a pair that work without problems, the OP would consider them if the issue is bugging him that much, telling him to 'buy proper headphones' doesnt really help him.
I have beats also and the volume up and down buttons dont work, but it's not a major issue for me. I downloaded
Headset Button Controller from the google play store, it allows you to control everything using just the single button (double tap skips to next track, triple tap goes to previous track etc) works well..

My cousin bought those, the sound quality is extremely poor.
Flat and tinny, bass is non existent.
For that kind of money you could get high quality headphones.
I got sennheiser HD 202's for around 30 euro.

Yeah I have sennheiser cx300 ear buds. £14:100%. Mate compared them to similar beats earbuds. Suffice to say the beats owner wasn't happy with the results

I have those too! I use them for when I'm out and about and the hd202's for around the house.
I think they are great quality and very reasonably priced!
When you buy beats 99% of the price is for the logo.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I've got the Pro's and they're really good! Not saying that for the same price you don't get way better one's, but they are really good for trance music. I would have got something else instead, but they were a gift.
Got the same problem with the 3 button cable. Also the mic is not working properly, making funny issues.
I just use the simple cable with no button.
I have been looking for a adaptor from iphone made headphones to others, but none that work for the s3...

Yeah they're good for the price. Its pretty hard to distort them. I think if you Mix poweramp, full bass and any Hybrid track though, you're in trouble. But they do me.
Bit gutted, got up on the bus, caught the chord on the seat and ripped the left out of my ear. Must have strained the connection as the left is only 75% volume compared to the right
Beats is a marketing gimmick
thanks
hello everyone
i own an sansung galaxy s 3 and i got problem with my headphones
when i coonect it to the phone its not working and you hear nothing
helo pleaee
thankes in advanced. Orel
It is more than likely just your headphones that are the problem, the wire inside the protective rubber lining could have broken somewhere, try using a friends headphones to see if there's any difference

Ever since the new update the headphones won't switch the songs on my phone. I have used two pairs of ibeats because my girlfriend also has the rezound. So I know mine aren't defective. Anyone else have this problem?

My headphones most times won't connect with the phone. I have to pull it in and out few times to get the phone to recognize that the headphones are in. I know its not the headphones or the Rom. What could be causing this and would there be a way to fix this?

Do u have a case on the phone, my case I have I have to make sure the jack pushes in all they way or it won't connect or could be that the jack on the phone is getting loose or wore out if you use headphones alot.

Honestly it sounds like a dirty head phone jack. And in your case I would use something a little moist, not really wet at all and clean it out.

I have the same issue, but used that as an excuse to get bluetooth earphones

I just had this issue when I (half-brained) decided to clean the ports out on my DNA with a soft-bristle toothbrush, since my font LED was extremely dim. After cleaning some lint out of the jack, I must've left some in, as it took some cycles of plugging in and unplugging earphones to get it working again. Haven't had trouble since.
Had this same issue. Use a needle and carefully pry the 2 little tabs inside for better contact.

I had the same issue with both my old DNA and my current one. I actually warrantied out my old one because of the issue my current one I managed to fix. I was reading online (i googled the issue) and found a couple other people had the same problem. I work for an IT company that uses the Square Card readers to accept credit cards so I HAD to get the issue fixed. Someone suggested using compressed air, aka canned air, and spray into the jack. Worked like a dream. Haven't had an issue since I did this.
If none of the cleaning tips work, there is an app called SoudAbout on the Play Store. You can use it too force the audio through the jack even if your phone doesn't recognize they're plugged in. The free version is all I've used. Link
