Stuck in headphone mode NOS 8.1??? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Recently I saw that the headphone icon in status bar is still present even after removing the headphone and speaker won't work.......I have tried cleaning the jack but still no success.Any workaround?? Moreover can I clean flash xiaomi.eu from the redwood recovery without any problem??

flash agni kernel.it will solve it.

@ShivamTiwari I think the simple solution to this is to go to a repair shop. As this is a common issue and happens when there's a short circuit near those parts. No need to worry, just go to a repair shop, the guy will fix it in a few minutes, depending on how trained/experienced he is.

There is no short circuit. Dont talk rubbish. It happens coz audio jack is of not good quality. After using earphone multiple times the audio jack contact inside stucks which keeps phone in headphone mode. The old jacks arr flawed. New jacks they brought were good for rn3.
Go to amazon website and buy good audio jack for rn3.

I bought jack from amazon site.
I dismantled main board myself. Took mainboard and jack to nearest mobile shop and got it replaced.
Then reflashed rom again. Now new jack working good.

@Black_Stark Wow man you're so intelligent, I'm mesmerized.

No sound from speaker

Hi
The sound has stopped working on my wallaby, and I wonder if anyone can help me fix it. I have cleaned the headphone jack with a toothbrush and IPA solvent and this has made no difference. I have also checked the resistance across the contacts with a multimeter and measured zero ohms across pins 2-3 and 4-5 after cleaning.
However, I have found that the sound does work if the device is really cold. For example - if I put the wallaby in the fridge, the sound will work for a few minutes until it warms up again.
Can anyone sugest what might be the problem?
Cheers
Ben
I have also tried the playback test from the bootloader meny and this works fine.
any luck with "no sound" so far? i am having same problem with jasjar. tried to screw around with headphone jack socket like threads state but no luck. thought maybe you might have some advice on how yours is going?
Hi
No progress whatsoever. It's almost impossible to fault find without a circuit diagram / schematic. I can't get my head around why it works fine from the diagnostics menu, but not at all once I boot it up into Windows (unless I put it in the fridge).
Cheers

Perhaps the failing componant is near another that emits a lot of heat when the phone is booted, but doesn't startup in diagnostic mode? Charging circuit overheating / shorting maybe? Or maybe the resistance of something in the speaker circuit is changing as it warms?
Any access to a thermal camera / image software?

just got my jasjar back after having cracked lcd and headphone jack replaced. sent to http://www.pocketpctechs.com out of california as suggested by very helpful user on this site. cost me around $20 dollars and took only a day to fix. works fine now!
more of this problem in ear peace ( audio jack ) problem ... just use some contact

[Q] SGS2 freezes without earphones

My sgs2 has apparently been water damaged while skiing and now i get this weird error, whenever my earphone isnt inside the jack port it freezes. If i restart it wont boot untill the jack is inserted, only the download mode works. Recovery freezes also. I flashed to official firmware i still get the same error, i replaced the jack piece with a new one and the problem persists. It seems like a short circuit somewhere, and for some reason the earphone piece stops it from taking place. So what could the reason be if it isnt the jack piece what else could it be?? does it have a solution that can be fixed without sending it to samsung??
thx
anyone?
Anyone?
It looks like the jack acts like a bridge to complete the circuit.
I suggest you need to look at the back of the motherboard, it looks the water damage could have broken a solider path connection or sensor, normally the phone by passes the headphone jack until the circuit is complete by the metal of the headphone jack.
Other cause which neds a JTAG is that one of the instructions on the chip has been corrupted so that it can not tell the phone to by pass the jack when it does not sense it.

I took appart and took a photo of the backside, apparently there's plenty of humidity marks all around the motherboard so i really cant tell where the problem might be... if it were a corrupt instruction woould i be able to substitute the chip or is there some alternative solution?? how can i identify the problem with the jtag???
thx

Abnormal Sound Output.

Hi. I have a very strange issue on my device.
Whenever i plug in an earphone/Headphone, i can listen to the sounds ONLY from the left earpiece.
I cross checked the earphone with my desktop, laptop and others' phones. It is working perfectly.
I just need to know if this is a software related issue or a hardware issue.
I tried changing my ROM in case the current ROM had problems. Even after changing to a different ROM, the problem persisted.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Sounds like a hardware error to me if you are having the issues with different ROMs. Try different headphones. If they don't work it MAY be the jack. But nothing is for sure here. :-/

I tried with different headphones too. Problem remains. The jack?
If you have the knowledge, could you share with me what MIGHT have happened? A GUESS?
Sorry,
the jack for me (I'm German) is the hole you stick your headphones into.
Unfortunately after some time and maybe some rough treatment the jack gets damaged. Google "repair headphone jack" and you will find many people with that problem.
If you can not fix the issue by any software and the headphones themselves are working it is most probably a hardware failure on the phone, jack is dislocated/broken a bit.
Google and maybe even repair service is your friend now from what I can tell. :-/
First try to clean the phones jack. Sometimes, garbage gets inside preventing good contact between the earpiece and the phone's jack. Use a toothpick or something (preferably not something metallic) to scrub it and see if it works.

Thank you. I will try that.
If this doesn't work, can it be solved without getting it to a service center?
Because i have lost my warranty due to physical damage almost 8 months back.
It worked fine till last week, but somehow this started.

If its not garbage, its hardware damage. You'll need to get it replaced. Luckily, replacing the jack is usually very cheap.

Issue with headphone jack connection and a gossip about logic boards

Hello, I'm having some connection issues with the Headphone jack on my Redmi note 4 Global Version (snap), I had the phone for over a year but from 2 weeks ago the phone couldn't recognize the headphone if it's completely in the jack, but it does recognize it nearly at the bottom with some issues (such as missing a channel), but there's a gold spot like 1mm above the bottom where the sound works as normal, but it's not reliable because any movement would take the plug out of that gold spot.
I figured a replacement should work fine and at first I tried to solve this locally, I went into like 5 tech support stores but none of them had a replacement jack, however one of them said that this issue could instead be the logic board, they asked me to let my phone overnight to see if its the board or the piece, and then tell me if the repair is possible. Because everything pointed towards a issue with the piece, as the phone did had a point where it could recognize the headphone connected, I said fine and let it, the next morning they bailed out and said they couldn't fix it because it was an issue with the board, them they spouted something about it being a common issue with a bunch of Xiaomi models having that exact same issue and telling there's no point in changing the jack as it would keep failing.
Honestly I don't believe it, the phone have a year without issues and to me the behaviour in the headphone tells a failure in keeping the connection at the end of the plug.
My idea right now is to buy a jack myself and either follow this tutorial or bring it to a store to change it for me, I'm not familiarized with smartphones and have no experience in soldering, so maybe bring it to a store is a better idea, however i still need to ask, is there a chance it could be the logic board or it definitely is the jack? I should buy that piece from Aliexpress or search another source? That tutorial seems legit enough?
Thanks in advance for any help.
I have two Redmi Note 4s with headphone jack issues.
The headphone jacks don't last as long as other phone manufacturers. Also there appears to be issues with the printed circuit on the motherboard from the headphone jack to the rest of the circuit.
Replacing the headphone jack and adding extra wire from the headphone jack connectors to the associated components should fix the problem. If it doesn't then meh, you've done all you can!

Question 3.5mm jack stopped working

Hi, I've had my Xperia 1 III for a few months now and it's been great.
But a couple days ago the headphone jack stopped working properly and it seems as if it's not contacting properly.
It plays audio but poorly, and occasionally only in one ear. I've tried several pairs of headphones and they all have the same issue.
I've cleaned the jack out but made no difference. Where should I start to fix this?
FYI: I live in New Zealand so there is no local service center I can send it into.
I had a bad experience at first, with the music suddenly stopping at random, but now it seems to be better and working fine.
Sorry, I don't have this issue anymore, it's now great for me

Ouch! You have a few choices...maybe. First is to determine if it's a software problem. I personally think it's hardware related but the only way to tell is to reboot into safe mode and see if the problem persists. If it does, then you could do a factory reset/repair locally or with Xperia Companion. Yes, a factory reset is painful. If this doesn't help then you either find a tear down video and see if you can repair it yourself...doubtful? Or, you take it to any cell phone repair shop and see if they can/will try to repair it. Or, you look into shipping it to a certified Sony repair facility and shell out the $$$$$ for a repair. Hopefully you have a backup phone. Lastly...you live with it...acquire a dongle...and use the charging port for audio headphone use. (I have not checked to see if this last "solution" will even work on this phone.)
