This is weird. I got a usb->3.5mm jack so I can plug my headphones into my kaiser. Whenever I plug the usb jack into the phone, the phone opens the dialer app and redials the last number I called. As soon as I hit the "end" key, it calls back again, and continues to redial until I unplug the headphone jack.
um. wtf?
Anyone have any ideas what might be happening? I've been through the control panel and registry but don't see anything that relates to "redial my last number as soon as I plug in my headset"...
Your adaptor is faulty.
It sounds as if the wires which carry the answer/hang up signal are shorting/grounding out. On my adaptor if I press twice on this button it redials the last number. Get it replaced or take it apart and check the wiring.
I have exactly the same. On Hermes (HTC TyTN). When I plug in extUSB 3-in-1 Adaptor it behaves weird. Sometimes it works okay. Yesterday it was always trying to start Voice dial. Today it made last call redial 15 times before I even noticed it was redialing.
My Wing does this too, but not all the time. I'll be listening to streaming radio at work when once in awhile it dials the last number I called. Weird. This is first I heard of anyone else having this problem.

That's funny. I was listening to Howard the other day. Thought he was playing a prank phone call but it was my phone dialing the last call. I hear Hello, Hello. Freakin weird.
Anyone find a resolution to this?
I just got my htc pro Tuesday and experienced this behaviour last night with the 3-1 adapter? Anyone find out what is going on? It only seems to happen though when I plug in a 3.5mm (I didn't try the 2.5mm slot) headphone without a speaker/call button.
I'm glade I'm not the only one having this issue...I just got mine a few days ago and it does the same...hope someone finds a solution for it soon
If it's any consolation I have a 3-in-1 USB Adapter working fine with my TyTN II using the original HTC supplied headphones so either your headset or adapter is faulty. They have very thin wires inside them with not much insulation so take the adapter apart and have a nosey as already suggested for crossed wires (or return it under warranty if your headset plugged in directly to the phone doesn't exhibit this behavior). You can also check with a multimeter (though not while plugged into the phone).

please tell me what to do i have 3 xda2i whit the same problem when you call the sound go to headphones i make update whit qutek but is the same problem all the time when you try to call the sound go on headphones pls give me advice
your phone may be dfooled into thinking that there is a headset inserted in the jack. if you can, plug in a jack and take it out a few times, jiggle it about a bit. in a bid to restore system sound.
does it happen when the charger or usb cable is plugged in? if so, it's likely to be the connections on the plug. See this thread I found on the subject, http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-245857.html, and this one for the connections. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Connectors.
I had the same problem, I cut both loop wires that go from pin 2, to pins 5 & 18 (on mine, the only two that looped back) and everything worked fine after that.
I have an wierd problem in my htc touch diamond.
Everytime i connect the headphones it tries to autodial a name in my contacts list.
And if i connect the radio it doest it nonstop... i heard the "bip" and then its like if it wanted to dial a name...
It sounds strange..but it is like that.
hope somenone knows what im talking about cause im gettting nuts...
Spanish original vodafone rom, not that many programs installed, although started doing it after installing thumbcal and pocketmax alarm today.. although I dont think that is the problem since i restored with spb backap a 1 month ago backup i made and still same headphones problem.
Have checked the headphone button.. and it seems to be ok (at first I though if maybe was stuck..)
Got the same problem. Did anyone know how to solve it?
sounds to me like a faulty headset. Try to connect a different set of headphones and see if it acts the same way.
I got same problem
Hi, your problem solved? my HTC diamond got the same problem, so irritating.
I have the same problem, I was told it was that the button on the headphones was too sensitive, so as I never use it I ripped the button off.
It isn't nearly as bad but still does it sometimes.
My friend with the same phone says that this fixed his though.
I think I need to have another go at it, see if I can stop it properly.
Ok, so I pulled the cover from the button on the headphones and ripped out all of the metal button that is attached to the board inside.
It's certainly working so far.
headphones HELP PLEASE!!!
hey guys i picked a pair of headphones from the store they fit my htc daimond and all but wen i plug them in nuthing happens wen i plug ionto to my razr or slvr they work fine is there an app that can help change this or something please help
HTC headphones auto dial problem finally solved!!!!
guys,I am using HTC Touch Pro2,I have same problem when headphone is plugged into HTC touch pro2;
Description of symptom:
Sometimes when you touch or move the wires of headphone,the phone will automatically dial back the first number in your call hisory (it's not "contacts list" as this poster said),the problem is not stable,when you deliberately fiddle with the wires of headphone hoping to find out what is the problem,it doesnt auto dial,while when you casually try to adjust the position of the wires to make yourself comfortable,it auto dials!
People completely have no idea what is going on,like it's a ghost behind it.
I initially believed that maybe the movement of the wires shakes the USB slot,which triggers internal electronic touching or somthing.
Like others,I checked whether there is some button along the wires of headphone,I found none,thus this mystery remains forever.
However,the other day,suddenly I did find a button in the wire. Now pls look at your HTC headphone,the middle of the black box(where two wires are jointed) is the button! the cover of this box is clickable, pls try to click it sveral times,the phone will auto dial.
it is now clear that this clickable cover (button) is specifically designed to auto dial back the call when you use headphone.
The button is so sensitive that even small touch will make it execute.
I had the same problem
I had this annoying problem and i sent my phone in service. I got a new pair of headphones and after some time (~1 year) same problem occured. I think this are the crappiest headphones i ever seen . THX HTC ) anyone found any good headphones (not necessarily original) that I can buy?
same problem
Had the same problem. It's caused by faulty wiring in the headphones. Mine do the calling when the wire at the end of the connector gets wiggled into certain positions (i.e. when I keep it in my pocket or in my hand while running). It's really annoying especially since this is my 3rd set in as many months that has this problem.
I've also noticed that Orange is selling them at a quarter of the price they had in December. I'm guessing they're trying to get rid of them since the new models from htc come with standard headphone jacks.
Only sure fire solution to the problem is getting a new pair.
Same here.
There are other threads about this problem.
Still looking for a solution like, let's say a registry hack that disables the headset button...
HELP
I tend to listen to my X1 in my car using a tape deck-3.5mm adapter, but whenever it's connected it will randomly call whatever my last call happens to be. I don't have voice dialing active (which is what I thought the problem was), so it's not picking up ambient noise thinking it's an order to call someone, and it seems to get worse depending on the song playing.
Yesterday I had a two-hour drive, and I only managed to get through maybe two dozen songs due to the interruptions. D: I even had it dial, hang up, and then redial again before I could close the phone function; multiple times in a row! My last calls list has the same number on it about a hundred times within a two-hour timespan XD
Any idea why this happens? Doesn't do it with a stereo bluetooth headset.
I think the wire may have an issue with the phone triggering a redial command. I used to use a Kaiser that had this issue with a 3.5mm adapter when the wire inside was broken (music would break up when moved). This is like using the button on a wired headset. When I replaced the adapter, the problem was gone. You might want to try wiggling the wire to see if that causes it, or get a different 3.5mm adapter.
Hi all,
I have an Xperia X1. I don't use the integrated microphone 3.5mm cable that came with the phone - just my regular Sennheiser PX-200II headphones. I've found that for almost all calls, in order for the other side to hear me, if the call starts with the headphones plugged in, I need to unplug the headphones and plug them back in and then they will be able to hear me fine. Same if I am using it in my car, hooked up through the 3.5mm cable to my stereo.
My guess is that as a default it seems like it assumes the mic connector is there and until the unplug the other side cannot hear me? And then on unplug/replug, it seems to detect properly that it is not there and uses the onboard Mic on the phone.
I've tried different custom ROMs but I've observed this with many different ones - I'm wondering if it might be a hardware issue.
Does anyone else have this happen to them? It doesn't happen for every single call, but it does so often, though when it does and doesn't seems quite random to me.
I don't usually make new threads, there's a couple times in the past year I've tried to search around and find information on this but I couldn't find anything - maybe I'm unique or not - but any reply is welcome. I think I may have found something similar with a different kind of phone (here) suggesting there are other discussions on this and maybe a hardware fix and potentially a software fix - but nothing on the Xperia in particular. Is this just something everyone has and they carry the mic cable with them all the time - I can do that if it is, though I have to say my headphone cable is much longer than I like already and any alternate fix would be better... thanks all, any reply welcome.
Thanks,
Peter
the hardware jack 3.5 mm in the x1 was diferrent from other 3.5mm... because in the x1 it has swicht inside the jack and if u use the cable not for the X1.. it will broken the swicht.. for a long time use.. its will affect... sometime event the cable already pull up from the x1 jack.. the logo off the headphone in windows dont want disepear...
My phone seems to have touchy connection with the 3.5mm Jack. When I plug it in in my truck it won't hold a connection. If I'm using headphones when I bump the phone or set it down it pauses and if I tap the back near the top again it'll play. Sometimes with the cord in Google Now opens when the back gets tapped. I hear a small rattle around the area too. Not sure if it's related. Is this some stupid accessibility feature? Help? I just got this phone yesterday

I know this thread is kind of old but did you ever get this issue figured out? I'm experiencing the same thing. I even disabled the Google search app hoping it would fix it, and the Google voice search prompt no longer pops up, but it still pauses and skips tracks with any light bump (at least while using Spotify).
It's very annoying and even kind of dangerous that I have to keep messing with it while I drive. Thanks for your time.

It is very annoying and no I really haven't found a solution. I now only use headphones when I'm sitting still. I have found that some cords seem not to be effected by this problem but I'm not sure why. I have tried different brands and styles to no avail. The only thing I ever read about this was that on M8s people put rubber o- rings on their headphone jacks because it was shorting on the metal housing. Obviously not the issue here because the 626s is plastic, but perhaps worth a try? Let me know if you find a solution
I can tell you I don't have this issue. I am using some headphones that came with my LG 8 years ago lol and an aux from the dollar store. Haven't tried anything else.
I have some trouble with my headphone/aux port too, but not quite like what you all are describing. I'm also using one of the AdvancedStock images from Sandix, so I wasn't certain if that had something to do with it (although I doubted it). I have a cheap but sturdy aux cable in my car that connects to my phone (this cable worked flawlessly with my last phone). When I plug it in, the phone recognizes a cable is plugged in, displays the right icon in the notification bar on the top and the sound works properly (going to the car) for a few seconds. During this time I hear some clicks passed through from the phone. After a few seconds the clicks stop and the phone changes back to as if no cable is plugged in (no icon, sound goes out phone speakers). I then have to unplug the cable and re-plug it back in to repeat the process. Finally after 2-4 tries it sticks and the aux cable stays working. At no point is the connection touchy; in that if I move the phone, shake the cable, whatever, the connection stays the same. I recently learned if I plug the cable in slowly, the phone things I have a headset with a microphone plugged in (this is not that kind of cable; it does not have the third microphone connection). It still does the clicks thing, but when it stops, the aux connection is still working fine, every time. I have not tried it with a normal set of headphones/earbuds yet or an actual earbud-with-mic set.
Noticed with case seems to not do it as much. With mine I have to twist cable to get it to work. There seems to be certain spots that it stays playing but sometimes finicky
