[Q] Headphones problem, sometimes audio comes from one side - HTC EVO 3D

I use my evo 3d to listen to music almost all the time I have it 1 year without any problem, but recently I've noticed that when I move or touch the audio plug it sounds just from the right side and if i touch it again it sounds normally again, when I keep them in my pocket every step I made cause this issue, and it is very annoying. It is not a headphone's problem because I test them in my laptop and worked fine, also I tried another set of headphones and I got the same issue.
Please help!!!!

Your headphone port is bad. There is no way of fixing it, replacing the phone is the only option.

Sometimes you gotta open it up, break a piece off, and see if anything is obstructing it and brush it a bit.
If things are still the same, then it's not repairable by regular means.

Sgs 2 stuck in handsfree mode

Hi all,
I am having the weirdest problem here and need some advice. Tried the search function but came up empty, although it seems by googling that other people have faced it. Problem is that none of the following helped.
Out of the blue my phone thinks that the handsfree jack is used at all times.
So, when i actually use the handsfree all is ok.
When i unplug it i still get the headphones icon on the notification bar and every sound except ringtones is routed to the headphones jack so i have no sound at all.
Tried:
Flashed stock rom, other developers roms, and every piece of kernel i could get my hands on. Of course in the process i did the proper wipes from the cwm menu.
Factory reset.
Sound test through the *#*#0673# menu.
Plugged - unplugged the headphones like 100 times.
Cleaned the headphones hole with cotton bud.
Applied force to the walls of the headphones hole with the jack plugged in.
Took it to a tech friend of mine who took the whole thing apart and tested almost every piece of hardware to his personal handset..everything works as it should.
For now the plan is to keep pluging unplugging the handsfree till it works. I will do that because one time it actually played music from the speaker for a couple of seconds... Unfortunately it then started using the headphones again.
I could really use some help here from the gurus PLEASE.
Thanks in advance

I would have to guess it's a hardware problem... although you have tested everything, still, I'd have to vote for sending it in for service

Well, thats my next conclution. It has to be the main board which is the only one we couldnt test...i just dont want to go there yet as it means that i have to sell it for spare parts.
As for sammys service i cant really go anywhere near them after what i have put my phone through

Headphone/aux sound breaking

Hello, my problem is that my sound output *breaks* or whatever, after random time of playing music through headphones or speakers connected to the aux.
Sometimes i can play music for 5minutes, sometimes 20min etc, before it breaks.
Sometimes the sound will start sounding disorted and crappy and then sometimes its a beeping sound, if i plug out aux the music plays fine and if i plug aux in again there is no sound at all or there is beeping/hissing. (sometimes it just go silent)
After this happens i normally cannot get sound from aux for several minutes sometimes even longer, but after awhile it works again, but not for long.
I recently bought a new antenna module (with the aux) and replaced it and i thought my problem was fixed, i played music for long time for 3-5 days, but now the problem is back again.
I have searched alot but i cant find anyone with same problem or any solution to it, guess ill have to get it repaired somehow, i just dont understand what is causing this, its clearly not the aux itself since i just replaced it with a brand new.
I have tried to increase and decrease the volume with stweaks, but no matter how loud or low it is, this happens.
However i do think its hapapening sooner or only happening when the musicplayer volume is above 10 (even if that will be low when i modify the amplifier in stweaks)
Any suggestions?
Here is a link to a mp3 i recorded to show the issue
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/86952153/aux%20jack%20issue.mp3
(sorry for bad quality but u hear the issue)
I start with phone speakers, then plug aux in and after silence i plug out and in again.
Bumping it once in hopes of answers

I forgot to update this, i sent it for repairs 3 times and only first time did they change the antenna module with the aux input.
The 2 other times they could not reproduce the problem, but it was there every time i got it back.
So i managed to cancle the whole purchase after some fighting with the store i bought it from.
If u are as ulucky as me the repair center wont find the problem when they test it, but if they do find it they can maby fix it.
Another thing to point out is that while the aux would have this problem, there was no problem when i played through micro usb with the ibolt docking cable.

Headphone jack problem

Hello!
Half year ago I purchased my Z2 and after using it for a month some problems started happening with the jack plug.When I plugged in any headphones and started listening to music, it would stop if the jack got moved even by a tiny little bit, like if you put it in your pockets or just by rotating it with my hand very slightly.I took it to the local service centre and they replaced it.It was working fine until now and it started doing it again.My phone is fortunately waterproof, never had problem with that.I'll take it to the service again but do you have any idea how to prevent this next and what could cause this?
Thank you
Bad luck bro.No one from here complained about that kind of problem.From my experience the only problem i had with the jack was when i dived the phone in to water.After that the jack was not responsitive for like 2/3 hours.I dont know if there is some kind of protection preventing it from working so that the jack can dry in that time.After the 2/3 hours the thing was that when i plug the earphones in it the same problem like yours occured for like 1/2 hours.Sometimes it detected the earbuds,sometime it didnt.It constantly connected/disconnected them,but only for like half an hour or so,then it went back to normal working perfectly.
I got the same problem, and my girlfriend got it also since two weeks ago. I fixed it (actually not fixed it, but made it much less annoying) on my phone by blowing in my headphone jack. (It has nothing to do with water here, phone hasn't been in contact with water!!)

Wow! I remember trying this before but it never worked, now I got out all the dust with a chopstick and I blowed in it really hard and now it's working perfectly.Don't know how long this is gonna last but thank you!
I have sometimes fibre from jeans stuck in the headphone jack and have to use needle to take it out, otherwise headphones aren't detected at all. I almost had a heart attack that the phone is damaged, but it was just debris from a pocket..
You could also try enabling the Smart Connect - Music on the go such that it would auto play the music tracks that you have to mitigate the problem u are facing. Else, try to get a RMA

That wont solve it at all lol. It has nothing to do with software.
I had such a problems. I messed a bit with a screwdriver and I got it fixed, but DON'T do that if you have warranty. I was scared that I almost broke it forever back then but I somehow fixed it and never touched it again.
However, what you can do is to take a needle and on the bottom there might be some dirt from the pocket. Try to take it out.
Sent from Xperia Z2
Luckily not from an iPhone = Yesterdays technology at tomorrows prices
It's most likely software issue. the proof is me. I had same problem. When my Z2 can detect the earphone, I tried to reboot it without unplugging the earphone. Guess what, the earphone is undetected after phone reboot. And unplugging / plugging it again did nothing. There's workaround though, my Xiaomi Piston had button on it, so I pressed the button while plugging the earphone (there're a lot of thread about it here). Then it worked, sound came to the earphone, but the buttons didn't worked (when it works normally, the button works). So I think it's most likely have something to do with the software. If it was hardware issue, then once the earphone detected, a reboot would still make it detected.
It never happened so far on the bundled noise cancellation earphone, always detected, spot on.

Redmi Note 3 PRO (SD) No Sound/Audio

hi..just bought this phone about 2months, now i'm facing No sound/audio at all, here's some detail and if anyone of you any good hardware repair skills here, i need your help, as i believe100% it's not the software issues:
1. phonecall, on stock MIUI (NoROOT/customkernel,pure officialrom) its freeze/hang when dialling numbers - few second latter its rebooted itself. voice recording app won't work can't use the app as its error pop-up said, and sometimes i need to hard restart to use the phone again. and its gime bootloop and drained battery (4000mah cannot even survived for 7hour), even with no internet connections the battery still drain fast.
2. when someone calling me,there's no ringtones, even when i answering the call there's no sound at all, no musics sound, any audio files i play only hisssing/noise sounds i can hear just like feedback sound.
3. Unlocking Bootloader, replacing other rom the sounds completely disapear, no hissing,noise at all (CM,Mokee) and still phone app freeze/hang when i try make a phonecall,(reboot/hardreset)the only solution to make the phone back in usable state.
4. installing Citrus ROM, the sounds back but only hissing/noise sound on sometimes i can here the sound with some feedback issues. phone app works i can make a call without freeze/hang,no reboots, but i can't totally hear someone talk to me at all, but when i turn on the loudspeaker i can hear someone talk to me (with some annoying feedback sounds),
5. as i bricked it once and need to reach testpoint so i believe its not under warranty, seal already broken.
6.ordering the parts, connector charging board(which contain whole set new audio i guess hope can fix the issues, but just noticed that if that's part causing the no sound issues, its only fix the audio such as music,ringtones..not the front speaker(phone related still not repairable)
7. trying contact some friends which some understand about hardware told me, i break down the IC Audio so its imposible to repair/change that part since its directly micro-soldered to the mainboard.
anyone have same problem as mine?, or some of you have solutions for my problem please reply .thanks

Same problem as mine.
Even the video recording do not work too.
Is there any solution how to fix it?
I use it as ipa/od without ability to make / receives any phone call, so many ppl has the same problem here seems was Xiaomi's bad hardware components, which mine believes caused by sudden-removal audio/aux jack while its still playing the musics
anyone know the average price to fix the sound ic compared to the phone? maybe 10%, 25%, 50%, or above the price of the new units?
I have the same problem,, could any one tell me where I can buy the hardware (IC sound).
Plz tell me solution. My mobile mi note 3 audio problem, audio only listen Bluetooth.

Redmi NOTE3
I need audio IC for Redmi NOTE3 we're can I buy
hello.it is an old topic. i hope it be useful for anybody else. a few days ago My redmi note 3 pro kenzo was damaged by water. after that when I turned it on, logo of my custom ROM was appear and boot loop ... First I think it was for ROM or kernel. I installed another ROM with other kernels. I could turned on my phone and enter to user interface. but everything that was related to sound ( like : camera-music-call-headphone,... ) was not work at all. I searched a lot. I found out the problem is for Audio IC (WCD9306 Audio IC) this model. https://www.deviceparts.com/wcd9306-audio-ic-for-xiaomi-redmi-note-3-ori.html
it is used in Samsung mobile phone like S4. however you can buy it. but the main problem you can't change it by your own without tools . if you are familiar with hardware it could be useful: http://www.u2ugsm.com/blog/xiaomi-redmi-note-3-ringer-solution-jumper-problem-ways/
I think cleaning IC with cleaner or alcohol might be useful. good luck
Edit: After 4 hours I turned it on and sound is back! I just cleaned it by alcohol and cleaner. but I made mistake. a little bit of that alcohol-water liquid is entered in my LCD screen. I put it in warm place and hope it will get better.

Question Speaker not working

Hi guys,
Whenever i use the speaker, whether its on the phone or using duo, i sound terrible to the other person. i sound very far away and i sound like im underwater are things im being told, they cant understand me but i can understand them perfectly. this doesnt happen when i dont use speaker. i tried calling T-mobile to replace my phone but, not kidding, they hung up on me 3 times, seriously, and when i went to the store they said i needed to go to ubrakifix, which i did and they didnt help me. has anyone else had this issue? were you able to fix it? any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!
Most likely its the phone case. I noticed some of the earlier phone cases that came out, it blocks the top microphone port. Which is what it uses when on speaker phone mode.
