when i plugin my headphones there is no head phone icon appear in the top , is this a wellknown problem ?
Its not a well known issue. Its weird samsung engineering. Unlike other galaxy series. For Some reason the tab has no headphone icon when plugged in even in stock.

Hi Guys
I have my Notes dock connected to a pair of active studio monitor speakers (Cakewalk). When the 3.5mm audio jack is connected to the Notes 3.5mm out on the top of the phone all is well.
When I connect via the docks 3.5mm out (and set the Notes audio to dock out) I get an audible 'pop' from the speakers when the screen is touched - seems like a surge of power from the sound card audilbe from the USB but not from the phones own 3.5mm out.
When the phone is awake using fairly regular touches there are no pops, only when it is dormant for a few seconds does it make you jump out of your skin
I have had the same set up running perfectly using an HTC HD2 and Kidiggi docking cradle.
I don't know if it is the Dock or my Galaxy Note at fault
Any help is appreciated

I'm experiencing the same issue.
Audio ouput through the Note's own 3.5mm jack is popping as well. Doesn't matter whether I'm using passive headphones or an active speaker.
The Note I had before I got a replacement had this too, so it seems to be a general problem :/
Edit:
Forgot to say that it seems that the speaker output gets disabled when there is no sound for about 2 seconds. As soon as something makes a sound the speaker gets enabled again and produces the popping sound.
So while listening to some music or watching videos there is no popping at all. Only when the playback starts.
I have the same problem with my SGN. It's much more noticable, when I connect car charger, but without it it's still there, but u need to focus to hear it. Any of you found solution to this?

Hi,
i have a problem with the notifications when headphones are plugged in. When i receive an email/message etc the headphones go quiet, i've always found this normal because my music is dimmed to let me hear the notification sound.
today i came to realise that the music is not actually dimmed. it actually stops output via headphones and uses the loudspeaker instead. this is probably annoying for other passengers on the tube.
anyway to change that so it stays on headphones? or do i have to wait for an update?
can others check if they have the same problem please?
thanks.

This horrible bug has impacted the stock firmware since the gs3 was released. CM sort of fixes it so it definitely isn't a hardware issue. I called Samsung to complain and they told me it was a feature. Funny, because all it ever does is cause problems. My HTC devices work fine with headphone notifications... Also you may notice that if you have your headphone connector plugged into your aux input in your car, AND Bluetooth hands free, that stock firmware will require you to unplug the cable while driving to hear the sound over Bluetooth. Another thing that HTC got right and Samsung failed on.
Samsung failed big time on this. I discovered this stupid bug when I had just received my S3 and had the headset plugged into it while working in the office. Every fcking time I got a message/email/notification the phone speaker would go off and after 4th time or so of the notification sound going off, colleagues at work got pissed and told me to shut the sound.
I had no idea why it did that, when I have the headphones plugged in I expect the phone to be completely silent. Apparently Samsung disagrees
Anyways, I found a fix and it's called SoundAbout, available in the playstore. You can set it up so ANY sound comes exclusively out of the headphones when they're plugged in. I ultimately switched to an AOSP rom because the app requires a service running in the background, which takes some ram. my i9300 was already at it's limits with free ram so this was a trade off, but with the i9305 this shouldn't be a problem at all.
Really don't understand why they don't fix or opt to make this a feature. Also, all the samsung based custom roms here also seem to incorporate that bug/"feature"
I have strange problem with my headset.. when i bought the phone I try the headset and it's work perfectly but since im not that big fan of headset and i always use the speakers of the phone i didn't use it since.
Today i tried use the headset but when i plug it in the phone didn't recognize it at all (no headset icon in the notification bar) I tried restart the phone no thing happen, so i restart the phone with the headset plug in now it recognized it but the problem even if i remove the headset still the sound seems to produce through it (showing the headset icon in the notification bar) and no sound through speaker.. then I remove it and restart again didn't recognized the headset (no icon in the notification bar) even with the headset plug again after the restart... I tried this like 7-8 times but no luck.
I tried the original HTC headset that come with the phone as well as my HTC one x, my friends galaxy s3 and iphone 5 but no luck also.
any help is appreciated!
I just did a factory reset.. still have the same problem

I've got a similar issue with the bluetooth car adaptor (HTC A200 Stereo clip). It used to work for both phone calls and music to the stereo, but now it's only connecting as a music device, rather than both audio and phone bluetooth profiles. I'm sure it's a simple fix if you know how...
Hi everyone,
Haven't posted here in years!
Recently decided to stop buying HTC phones and got myself a Nexus 6. Apart from needing a new SIM due to loads of signal problems it's been great!
One little niggly thing though. Is there supposed to not be a headphone icon when you plug some in? I've never seen this within Android before. Mine also doesn't recognise the MIC on my HTC ear buds. Is this normal? Bit miffed that Google/Motorola were too stingy to include some earphones. :-/
Everything is stock apart from Nova Launcher.
Cheers
Just for clarity, earphones do actually work! Just no icon and doesn't recognise the mic.
There is no headphone icon, no
Hi, I had an 4GB Alpha for a week but have just sold it today (I realized I still prefer my Xiaomi Max). The guy who bought it contacted me after a couple of hours because he can't get any sound out of the headphone socket. He tried it with several headphones which work without issues with other phones (as far as I understand he tested it with Samsung and Sony headphones) and I have no idea what setting to change (he tried the volume buttons trust me) - any ideas how to make the headphone socket work? I had no idea about this issue as I don't use wired headphones at all. Btw the phone detects the headphones as the headphone icon is displayed when a headphone is connected.

Mine work just fine. received the phone the week before Xmas and it got 2 updates since then. Tried with Samsung, AKG (both in hear) and JVC headsets and had no problems whatsoever. Maybe you/he can solve the problem with this last system update via OTA or could be a hardware failure. In my Samsung A5 2017 only the Samsung headphones would work because the jack was a tad longer than the AKG's. The latter would spring back after being inserted and only one channel would work.
pause for effect
I have found that inserting the jack but pausing before pushing in for the "click" allows the phone to detect the headphones. Logo shows in the status bar. I don't even think about it anymore when I do it. Not ideal but workable. I use an old pair of Samsung earbuds.
Hope it helps
