hello...i don't know if it was discussed this problem before,but i just try to resolve headphone problems for my phone...i have the samsung galaxy ace from 2 weeks ago and the problem is : when i connect the headphone (i was trying 3 headphones till now and it was the same problem),the sound is very low,is distorted,it's like in a box,the voices is not hearing...if i keep pressing the play button from the headphone,the sound is better. i read something like "if enter in service mode,on the "audio tab" you can change something", i try,but the "audio tab" from the service mode is the only one which is NOT openning...i don't know what to do next...any idea ?
I have the same problem, the sound with headphones are really low, but i was using Nokia headphones because of microphone. When the button was pressed to take call sound was good, so I just glued it with super glue, now I can listen music at right volume... just cant answer calls!
) nice one .. yes,it's an idea,but i thought that someone knows what is the real problem...maybe is the soft of the phone,maybe is needed some kind of headphones

I've used some el-cheapo Sony headphones from Argos and they're much better quality. Will have to ask my GF to try her Skullcandy headphones and see how they are. But otherwise I'm not one to spend much more than £30 on a pair of headphones, especially when the jacks tend to get screwed up in my pocket.
I've noticed some distortion with my Sony's: sometimes the audio goes quite quiet then loud, repetitively. I'm almost positive it's the custom ROM - Fla.sh v1.

I'm using the Logitech Musicman (or men , whatever) and it performs more than I had expected .
For my Equaliser I'm using Equalizer 3.1.3 (I think)
So do all 3 connection headphones work OK?
Is it just the 4 connection that make the sound go out-of-phase/cancel out?
I do like the galaxy s phones for quality especially with voodoo sound. Surely Samsung could fix this so that the 4 connector headphones are interchangeable??!

Im using Shure SE102 earphones - on low volume you can hear clearly without distortion, on full volume - it not loud enough to get me remove the headphone also no distortion.
Maybe the socket is designed to chuck out a low impedance and phase variance.
I have also used the 5.1 channel button on the music player that comes with Fla.shX2.2 rom and thats works beautifully.
no, the headphones was not specially for samsung (and specially for galaxy ace i didn't find ) 2 are from nokia and one i don't know from where, but i thought that if they have 3.5 jack should work...it seems that i thought wrong ... i will try something from samsung,or have you some recommendation ?
finnaly i solve the problem with Panasonic RP-HS46...not so expensive,but very good sound,bass,etc..
I had exactly the same problem. Tried my old nokia headset, a noname, and a Philips headset. All had the problem of poor quality, and way better when the button was pushed.
The solution:
The I changed to a Philips headset specifically designed for IPHONE and it all of the sudden worked well. Phone now recognizes the headset and the phone is acting on the button.
From my reading I understand that the pins are a bit swapped for iphone, so somehow for my ace it is the same as the iphone pinning.
yes..one of my problems was that i tried some samsung headset...i don't remember exactly the name...after that i was thinking that is a problem with my phone till i tried that Panasonic headset...have not microphone,but i don't needed because i use it just for music

Ohhhh it worked for me. Thank you bro. For headphones try one without any buttons in it. All headphones without buttons work well.
skullcandy headphones work fine but just one prob..
My skullcandy headphones work perfectly fine with great sound quality but the problem is my galaxy ace does not recognise the click functions.I even downloaded an app for this problem but it still doesnt work.
Does anybody hv a solution to this problem cuz even u guys hv this phone and maybe knowing a solution to this problem
I use the head phones from my old phone (INQ cloud touch).They works Great! Even the button to play/pause works.
Just been listening to some music on my SIII and the left output is different to the right output.
The left doesn't have any bass and seems to lack range. The right sounds normal maybe a little more bass than my SII did. I've tried other headphones and its the same.
Has anyone noticed this? Can you test yours so I can work out if its a faulty phone or a software problem
Thanks in advance
Sounds like bad contact at one of the points inside the headphone jack. I'm pretty sure there would be a lot more threads about this if it were a general software or hardware issue. Take your unit back to where you bought it and get a replacement.

I was thinking that as well, I've just tried a 3rd pair and it seems to be similar. Maybe its down to the 3.5mm jack not seating correctly. I'll try the genuine Samsung ones when I get home and see how they are. If they aren't balance i'll exchange it.
I've just tried another SIII and its the same so I'm guessing the headphones I have don't sit correctly in the headphone socket?
I thought you said you'd tried other headphones? I'd be surprised if two sets of headphones wouldn't fit properly... unless they're the same brand, and have a weird jack design.
I do get bass and full range on both earbuds using the stock samsung headset, but it does sound different than using my mw600 over a2dp. But that's propably due to the worse dac on the latter.
From my tests though ditching the stock player in favor of poweramp, works wonders.

If 2 SIII's do the same it's either the headphones i've used or the stock player so i'm not worried at the moment.
I've tried the Samsung headphones and they do the same, bluetooth headphones are fine. Surely 2 S3's can't having the same issue and no one else is having a problem?
Hello!
I have a rather annoying issue with the headphone jack on my p9000, it is heavily distorted.
When i'm playing music through the headphone jack in my car, the sound is just awfull on this phone!
loud crackling noises and heavy distortion on all volumes, even though the audio "enhacements" that comes out of the box is disabled. I've tried with multiple other phones and cables and i only experience this problem with the elephone p9000.
Is it just me having this problem? if not, any ideas?

Hi.
Do you have stockrom?
If you have eragon, then you have ViperAudio. Take a look in it.
If you're on stockrom, then i can't help you.

Hi.
Its worth a try.
On stockrom is everything way to silent.
With viperaudio you get other libs. And with it, an equalizer.

I'm using the tmobile v20 and noticed this morning that my DAC wasn't impacting the sound quality of Google Play Music at ALL. I have been using a v10 for the past year and I could tell that the DAC wasn't working, or it was broken, because my non-DAC listening on the v20 paled in comparison to the v10 with DAC on.
I went ahead and installed the DAC Fix for V10 and it seems to have fixed my issue. In case any of you aren't noticing the DAC working on streaming apps, try this. So far I've had no issues.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...lgv10.dacfix&rdid=com.phascinate.lgv10.dacfix
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/themes-apps/dac-fix-hi-fi-dac-everywhere-t3274457
Thanks to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4723056
Funny, listening to Google Play Music with my leftover Note 7 earbuds I hear a distinct difference when I toggle the HI-FI on and off. I tried installing the V10 fix app and can hear no difference enabling or disabling it. I did see that the settings for Hi-Fi say "The sound has been automatically adjusted to the connected audio device". Could the type of headphones/earbuds determine if it engages?
T-Mobile edition of the V20.
I also hear a big difference on my T-Mobile unit. I'm using a set of Skullcandy earphones, and toggling off/on is immediately noticeable.
I ended up testing some more...I turned off the DAC fix, yet the toggle still worked. So I uninstalled the DAC fix completely and the toggle STILL works. I guess my unit was stuck in the "off" position for some reason, but it's working fine now. Weird. Sounds so much better with the DAC on.
The DAC fix makes no difference on my V10. Once the dolby atmos is turned on and Viper, the sound quality is superior. My V20 is arriving today and I'm sure with my 1More earphones and that 32bit DAC my ears will cry for mercy.
I wasn't able to replicate your problem, but I must say... This audio quality is far superior than any other phone I've ever used, finally something deserving to be used with Denon Urban Raver's.
Soooo is the DAC fix only for streaming apps such as Google play?
This is my main source of music...
Im comparing the headphone DAC on the s7 and the v20 and they almost sound the same, Im activating and turning off the Hi FI on the v20. Im using an audio technika m50x. Should i donwload the app to fix the dac? im using a video from youtube to do the testing. going to use google music songs that i have download to see if there is a difference.

Other people's DAC worked fine for streaming apps without the fix. Mine WASN'T working, but now it is. I can't say why. But I'm like you. I use GPM for my daily music.

I'll tell you right now, if you can't notice it, it isn't working. You don't even have to be close to an audiophile to notice, it's just simply 3x better.

so mine is not working. is very close to the one on the s7 edge. Should i restore it? I also download the v10 dacfix but still the same. where is the better place to test it out. App wise?

It is quite noticeable on every music app I've used. The best way I would say is just listen to some music you like. I wouldn't know how to fix it, mine works perfectly. Try a factory reset?
Edit: I just moved from the S7 edge, and the difference is quite clear. I even think it's much better without the hi-fi turned on, but with it on it's significantly better too.

Sennheiser Momentum In-ear, SteelSeries Siberia Elite Prism headset, and both Samsung and apple ear buds that come with phones. There isn't a pair I can't tell the difference on. I even did a blind listen test with my wife, and she confirmed that it sounds better on the samsung ear buds she uses (included with S7 edge).

I figured out a very easy way to tell. If your phone doesn't mute music for 1/2 a second when you turn it on, it isn't turning on. It should have a 1/2 second mute when enabling or disabling.
It does. So i imagine is better in the clarity or something. Because it doesnt sound louder than the s7.

how you are connecting them? first the cable to the phone and then to the headphones? or just plugging them
This dac fix did nothing for quality for me listening through my Bose QC15's couldn't tell a difference

So mine is confirmed working with google play.
plugged my vmoda crossfade LP2 wire into th3 phone , then into to headphones.
Press the DAC button and it is a slight bump in bass and volume. too bassy imo

Will this headset works with our device?
40$ for ANC headset seems cheap
https://www.gearbest.com/earbud-headphones/pp_636900.html
Any info..!
It works with RR ROM (I haven't tested with other ROMs), but it isn't recognized as a headset, so you can listen to music, but you can't use it for phone calls.
If anybody knows a workaround to get it to work, it would be great.
What about noice cancellation? Is it working? Thats what make this headset different..!
ANC is a functionality that is provided by the headset, not the phone. To answer your question, yes it works. I have no comparable headphones, but it works quite great when I use the bus or train.
I see some reviews saying ANC is working only from mi music app thats why I asked whether its working in our phone or not.
How are you turning on ANC from headset? Is there a key for that?
There is a little switch placed on the remote. When it's activated, a tiny blue led lights up.
ANC isn't restricted to an application. You can plug in the earphone, activate ANC and it works, without opening an app, or play music.
Good..Thank you..!

I'm thinking of buying one. Did it work out for you? I'm using Lineage OS also, have you tried on a custom ROM as well? Thanks!!!
I am thinking of getting one too but I want an assurance that it would work when I get it. Also, I read reviews online about the sound quality but am still quite sceptical about the sound. So if anyone has tested it out and tried few eq's on them such as Viper4Android, please your opinion would be very useful. Thank u.
I finally got one for my leeco le max 2!!!!! It's good but my equalizer (Viper4Android) doesn't work for it and that's a little disappointing. But with apps such as Poweramp you can get better sound quality. I can say the headphones sounds better than the stock cdla headphones and yes the anc(active noise cancellation) works!!!. Drains a little more battery but I guess it functions like cdla(I mean similar power consumption)... In my own review it's quite good.
Same problem here with viperfx, I think it's because the earphones aren't recognized as usb input. Randomly DolbyAtmos workes for me as an equalizer, but not all the time and I don't know what affects this.
V/S the leeco Cdla

Well audio clarity is most definitely obvious on the Xiaomi noise cancelling earbuds also durability in terms of the cable is quite good ANC(active noise cancellation is not as great as I hoped especially when compared to a different pair of ANC earbud i used to have in about the same price range) however the sound in general that is, the bass especially the bass, the mid and highs are ok on the cdla earphones, but durability is terrible. MY cdla earphones cord ripped to shreds that's how bad the cables are.
BAD NEWS: My Xiaomi earbuds fell on the floor and the left ear just died(only very faint sound could be heard) but the right ears were okay, so am not so sure of its durability. And I just recently got the earbuds
