My wife has a Lumia 920. She's tried 2 different headphones and each has the same problem. If the jack is pushed all the way into the 920's port, the headphones do not connect properly. There is no audio in the headphones. Pulling the jack out of the port ever so slightly makes the connection and the audio is heard.
We're going to try a third set of headphones on her 920 and go to an AT&T store to try another 920 but I'm beginning to think this is a problem with this particular unit. Has anyone else had this kind of problem?

Only had the issue with the original headphones, not a different brand/kind. Called Nokia and they told me to go to the place I bought it at ..

we have two 920's and I tried three different sets of headphones (over ear, and in ear). There is no problem with connection to my Sennheiser and when I plug it into the phone it makes a noticeable click at the last stage of insertion. However, it seems not as tight with my Logitech and I can see that some may have problems. When I press the connector into the jack it disconnects sound, but as soon as I let go it's fine.
if I had the same problem you wife is experiencing I would probably return it.
edit:
I noticed that it is rather tough to push it all the way in. The last stage only snaps in with some more force. If you see any metal from the connector then it is not all the way in. In this state it's rather erratic depending on how far it's in.

I don't really know how to explain...
I use my Nexus one in my car for calls.
I use a jack cable which is plugged into the radio. So I can hear my partner over the speaker in the car. Very good.
But, the others can't understand me. It's crappling all over.
When I put the cable out of the jack and use the normal hands free on the phone, everything is fine and the others understand me very well.
By plugging into the car radios jack, it starts with crappling my voice again.
Does anybody have the same problem? Or is it fine on your Nexus all the time?

sounds like the phone might be trying to find a microphone in the radio
Yes, could be. But why? What can I do?
It was very cool when somebody can try it, if it works on other NexusOne.
well the default headphones had a speaker in them so the jack is made to work as a speaker jack and a mic jack. however im not sure why it is expecting a mic when there is no information being sent back to the phone.
Simple expanation, I think - noise canceling functions.
When you're in speaker mode, it's settings are probably changed to account for a voice coming from a distance and being roughly equal for both mics, while when in regular mode it's working and expecting significant signal difference. When it doesn't get it - since you're speaking from a distance - it doesn't "think" you're talking, and cancels your voice partially as it would cancel outside noise.
There is a hack somewhere in General or Dev section, how to disable noise canceling. You might try.
OK, when I find it.... Sounds good
I hate making new threads but I can't seem to find an answer. Maybe I'm using the wrong keywords.
I use my N1 in my car alot. It's my main source for my music and hand's free calling while driving. I use the aux jack on my stereo to the N1 for music.
When I get a call it would ring though the speakers and I would touch the slider to accept the call. The caller would hear me crystal clear and I would hear them though the speakers just fine.
Now when I get a call, they can't hear me. They say I sound like I'm far far away. I can hear them just fine. But I look like a madman in my car screaming and yelling just to be heard.
So what I have to do now, is answer the call, and touch speaker, which only plays the voice though the speaker phone. They hear me crystal clear but sound is no longer going to the car speakers.
Anybody have this problem or know what's causing it or even a push in the right direction?
I have this excact same problem.
I came from a milestone using a standard 3.5mm audio jack and calls went really well. But when i tried my nexus, i got the same response, "sounds liek your far away".
I tried a few AUX cables but they all seem to do the same thing. So my solution was a aux cable with a built in mic.
I ended up modding the headphones that came with my nexus to get this working. Removed the earbuds and soldered a 3.5mm jack.
Now when i talk using that cable with a built in mic, ppl hear me very clearly. So i've jsut been using that cable since. I'm sure you can buy a premade aux cable with a mic at any local mobile audio store. I saw one at a BestBuy mobile here.
Hope this helps.
but the issue is that at one point it DID work normal with his nexus. i think what is going on here is the phone originally read the aux input as just standard audio output. but now its reading it differently somehow, i just dont know why. its almost like the difference when a phone thinks you have headset connected vs audio out connected with no mic support. no idea on a solution though...

I was thinking on buying the Belkin one with the mic right at the aux jack.
Hope this helps.

Exactly, it DID work. I can't pin point when it happened for me. I was thinking maybe it was when I went from Eclair to Froyo?
I'm almost positive that using the phone over Aux out broken with the update to Froyo. Has anyone tried this yet with Gingerbread on the N1 or with an NS? I'm hoping they fixed this, it's a really, really frustrating problem.
My fear is that everyone at Google got free car docks so they won't ever fix it because it's never a problem for them.
I also have the exact same problem. Thought it never worked for me, I only recently sets up my car mount with aux. Anybody found a solution?
Just wanted to check is anyone else is finding that headphones plugged into this jack often are not picked up by the phone and the speaker is used instead.
Happens both with my car AUX and my in ear Klipsch earphones, although if I jiggle the plug it sometimes works. The bundled headphones (MH750) so not seem to suffer this problem.
Is this a widespread problem or an issue with my handset?
the MH750 has 3 rings on the jack as a opposed to the 2 rings on the connector for your other headphones am I right? Having the extra ring on it (meant for the remote) may be what is adding the extra tightness when inserted. I'm not sure how to solve your AUX problem but you may need to try headphones which have a built in remote like the MH750 so that it has the extra ring on the connector. This may also be a defect, as I can not confirm since my device is still on it's way.
EDIT : After receiving the phone this happened to me once. You have to play around with the smart connect settings o disable it all together. It doesn't seem to be hardware related.
i have the same problem here .

My p20 pro is three days old. And I'm plagued by problems with Huawei adapter issues.
I plug my normal headset that's been working amazingly for three years into the jack, then into my phone. And it either doesn't register as plugged in, or it spazzes out and changes my music on its own or it makes audio quality abysmally poor. I'm talking worse than dialup poor. Only thing that works fine now is the included headphones and charger.. anyone else have something similar? My carrier said cause it's so damn new I gotta take it back to p.o.s

Have you tried another pair of headsets? I have a pair of JVC,a pair of HyperX Cloud(big headsets) and a Sony pair,they all work very well,very good quality,no connection problems. Might be your adapter,or even your headsets,even if they normally work in a 3.5mm jack. Try another pair of headsets,borrow from someone for a day. Cheers!
Hi
I've got a P20 pro, and a pair of the freebuds. All was well, but now there is no sound coming from my right earbud. However, I have tried the earbuds with another phone and they're fine, and I've tried other bluetooth headphones with my phone, and again, no sound on the right, which leads me to the conclusion that it's an issue with the phone.
I've cleared the bluetooth cache, but that's not helped.
Any suggestions please?
The fact that it happens on bluetooth and through wired headphones means this must be a software issue. Try a factory reset.
I've not got any wired headphones. Just bluetooth.
If I try and plug anything other than a charger into the charging/headphone port I end up with another problem! So I only use wireless.

Have you forgetting the headphones bluetooth connection and repairing?
Tried unpairing/forgetting etc.
Earbuds work perfectly well on other phones. Other wireless earphones which work perfectly have the same issue on mine. I've tried 4 other phones and 4 other wireless earphones (pixel, samsung, and 2 iphones)
I really don't want to reset the phone. It looks like something I'll have to put up with for another few months until my contract is up.
