[Q] Nexus 7 Headphone jack problems/screen flicker - Nexus 7 General

I just want to ask really quick if you guys have the same problems. Every time I plug in my headphones into the jack, they don't pick up sound and it says they aren't in. Also the screen flickers alot now. Remember I have a Nexus 7. Does any of this happen to you too? How can I fix it?

Headphone jack problem - please read and comment..

My Streak7 has sprung up a little problem where the audio cuts off when the headphone plug is wiggled slightly. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, did you get it replaced? And if so, did your replacement have the same problem?
I am trying to figure out if this is common or not, as I have two weeks left before I have to keep this thing, if this is a common issue - I will have to get a refund as the main use for this is listening to music at work. So, even if you have not had this issue, please post telling me so. For mine, when the cable is pressed towards the front of the device it cuts off, when it is pressed towards the back it does not. Obviously it is a short with the pin, perhaps it is just bent...
Thanks..

It did not happen in my case.
It should be a audio jack problem. or the headset.

Gotta be the jack, I tried three different cables same thing, it looks like one of the metal pins (looking into the jack it is the one on the screen side) is pushed in when it should be protruding slightly. I am going to get a replacement (thank goodness for root & Nandroid!) and hope it doesn't develop this problem... I really like my Streak.
Just a quick update, T-Mobile confirms that this is not a known common issue for the device, so that makes me feel better. I will swap it out on Saturday (work schedule doesn't allow me to get to a store before then) and pray the new one doesn't ever have this issue. If anyone else feels like chiming in on the subject, please do - the more responses the better..
I had a similar problem with one set of headphones. I think it might be related to the length of the pin. I tried using standard ipod headphones and worked fine (short pin). The first set I used that did not work had a microphone attached to them. I have not tried with any other since (longer pin).

Unfortunately for me, this is with numerous headphones and cables all with different styled plugs. Some with the longer plug (meant for i-whatevers), some with standard shorter plugs, and some in-between. The stock headphones, the stock headphones from my Nexus One, the stock headphones from my wife's MT3GS, the stock cable from my AKG headphones and all of the custom cables I have for my headphones... I am getting it replaced tomorrow. Thanks for sharing your experience though.
No problems using samsung vibrant headphones on my streak. Haven't tried any others yet. Think you just got a bum device.

Yeah, looking into the new device's jack you can definitely see where the old one was broken. The connector was almost shoved into the device, whereas it should protrude slightly.
Restoring my internal storage, then I will restore my Nandroid backup and hopefully be up and running like this never happened. Never tried restoring a Nandroid onto a replacement device before, hope it works out!
Restoring my Nandroid now! Can't wait to boot it up!
Booting!!! Oh my, the anxiety.
Hot ****in' damn! it worked 100%!
No this issue with my streak 7 + SHURE earphone

[Q] Samsung Dock audio 'POP' problem

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?

My headphones needed a bit of force to get them in properly and recognised. I think, maybe they were just not recognised the first couple of time. I'll have another go later, I've only tried once.
If I push to hard, speakers take over. I have to move it for it to play on my earphones. Pretty stuoid . Calling Google today since its my day off.
It has to be just right for it to go through the earphones. Putting it in the jack doesn't cut it because it plays through the speakers. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I WAANT TO WATCH PORN.. LOL

ok is working ,i realize that it need to be pushed all the way in lol.:laugh:
for some reason was not obvious to me, i guess because on my Gnexus don't need to force it that much.
I noticed same thing. So you had to apply more pressure to force it in? I was afraid of breaking the damn thing. I can't get it to recognize any of my headphones but will play out through my lil surround sound system that has a headphone plug. I noticed that the plugs don't seem to go all the way in. I will try to force it in harder..lol.
I need to get some dedicated headphones. Only ones I have are the ones with a built in mic attached. Those won't go in all the way no matter how hard you push. Its likely to break the headphone jack if you keep trying to force them. Ones with mic. attached have 3 rings on the plug. Straight stereo headphones have only 2 rings, which is what I need.

Headphone Buzzing

hello everyone. i am on my 3rd nexus 6 all had the same issue and i'm wondering if anyone else has come across this or am i just having bad luck. on all the nexus 6's i've had i've had this random buzzing sound pop up when using the headphone jack. it doesnt do it at all on bluetooth. it seems to do it more when the cord plugged into the headphone jack moves. the buzzing is temporary like 1sec in length but it can do it multiple times in a 10sec span. at first i thought maybe it was the headphone 3.5mm plug in that was messed up but it's doing it with other headphones i have also. it also does it with the auxiliary cable i use for my cars stereo. has anyone else had this issue with their nexus 6? i am wondering if this is a manufacturing defect since this is my 3rd nexus 6 that has been doing it. i have an at&t nexus 6. i remember my samsung galaxy s2 having this same issue years back and it turned out to be a hardware defect.
i listen to music with my headphones plugged in, no issues here. anyways, this goes into the q&a/help section, not into general. ill ask a mod to move it there.

[Q] No headphone icon? - Won't recognise microphone

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
