I'm having an issue with my S3. I believe it's more software related.
Whenever I plug in a 3.5mm audio jack, all audio is cut from the device completely and the audio doesn't stream through the jack.
To regain audio I have to do a reboot.
Any idea how to fix this issue, and to get my headphones working properly?
Running cm13.0-20160413-UNOFFICIAL-d2att
((I've had this same issue with previous ROMs))
UPDATE: I found this app called "SoundAbout" which re routes audio on the android device and I was able to get sound from my headphone.
Why would I need an app thou.. When the device should be able to re route audio on its own.

OK so here's what I want to do.
I'm currently my Hero as a kar kit by plugging it in via my cars aux input. I also permanently use my phone to play my favorite tunes via the aux input. So when I get a call the music pauses and continues when I'm done talking.
I'm now interested in buying a bluetooth speakerphone as the hero does not have echo cancellation and audio calls echo's back horribly in my car.
Will I be able to pair the bluetooth speakerphone/headset and have music playing via the 3.5mm jack at the same time? Will calls be handled via the Bluetooth device or the audio jack?
Maybe you could ask a Mod to move this to General -> Q&As? It isn't Hero specific & you could get a bigger audience. You should mention what version of Android you'll be running though.

Ah ok, thanks for the tip.
I went ahead and bought the Bluetooth speaker without knowing the outcome. When the phone is plugged into the 3.5mm jack a headphone icon is displayed. When the bluetooth device is connected, a different bluetooth paired icon is displayed.
So what happens is exactly what I wanted - When listening to music via the 3.5mm the audio is played via the car stereo. When a call comes in the music gets paused and the audio get routed the bluetooth speaker.
Inexpensive and simple car-kit solution.
Glad you got a result - & that you posted on it
What kit did you buy to do this? I am looking to do the same!
Hello, i am running Android version 2.3.7 on a Samsung Infuse
Due to water damage my phone no longer recognizes when a headset is plugged in or not, and thus always thinks that one is plugged in.
I have found an app that forces the audio to play through the speakers of the phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5zZWIuYXVkaW90b2dnbGUiXQ..
But i am unable to find an app that does the exact opposite which is forcing audio back through the wired headset.
i realize there are widgets that can route audio both ways, but i require an app that does it upon opening (like the one in the link) to automate the routing which i do through tasker.
SO could anyone develop/ help me develop an app that routes all audio to the wired headset upon opening? i will be more than happy to donate.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I have a BlueAnt bluetooth set in my car but it keeps dropping out and sounds crap.
I have a proper Samsung Car mount with a 3.5mm Audio jack that connects to my Audio in on the Car stereo.
Using this, I can play music from the SGS2 and hear things like GPS software instructions on the car speakers.
The question is, how do I get the phone side of things to play via the 3.5mm jack and use the built in phone MIC for the pickup?
Ie same as speaker phone but coming through the car speakers instead of the phone speaker.
Surely this is just a setting / registry change etc?

I have a CT802 Idea USA tablet running Android 4.0.3. It is rooted.
Whenever I try to play a video (using any media player program including but not limited to the built-in one), the audio is weird--the volume is relatively low *and* the voices are almost nonexistent--what I get is almost all music. This is only a problem when I have something connected to the headphone jack--it does not happen with the built-in speaker.
If I plug the jack partly in, it is possible to get it into a position where it plays the sound properly.
My theory is that it's somehow falsely detecting surround sound output (but is not detecting it when I have the jack partly in), and when it does so, I'm only getting the left and right channels. I would like to know:
1) Is there any way I can prove this?
2) Is there some setting buried in some file that I can use to disable surround sound completely?
It turned out that the problem was caused by having earbuds with a built-in microphone. Both of the ones I tried had a microphone. When I bought another pair without a microphone, sound was okay.
It's still a problem, however. How do I keep it from doing this? There are no system settings whatsoever related to microphones, and I have no idea how to disable the microphone or otherwise tell it to treat the earbuds as a normal set of earbuds.
Okay so I have searched far and wide and not been able to find my exact problem- nor a solution. First of all, my headphone jack does not work. No audio will play through any headphones. Second, I have to mess with the speaker in order to get it to work. I'm using an app called SoundAbout. Notification sounds play through the speaker fine, without tweaking. However audio requites tweaking. Bluetooth works perfectly. Does anyone know how to fix this or had this problem?
