I have bin on a holiday for a week, using my X1 in the plane as a music player only. After I came back yesterday and I tried to call someone the person could not hear me.
I tried a soft reset, still didn't work. Tried to call an other mobile of mine, still no sound. If I blow very hard in the microphone hole I hear something on the other line.
The only thing I did before leaving on my holiday was uninstalling SRS WOW because I could not change the volume in media player. I tried installing it now but that didn't help.
Also If I try to call handsfree using my bluetooth carkit it does work, but if I try to record a movie with my mobile it does record sound...
Has this something to do with the software or the hardware of the phone? Any suggestions are welcome, thank you.
Sounds like it's software. While you're in call, press the up button on the top right of the phone to turn the volume up.
(I just got my X1 and it's the first thing I could think of)
No that doesn't work, and the strange thing is that my TomTom doesn't give me any sound anymore. And its settings are all ok.
When I turn on my phone then it shows the headset icon for like 2 seconds and then it dissapears because of the some other icon replaces it.
Hi!
When listening to music with my earphones connected, my milestone sometimes stops playing. Just like when you pull out the earphones. But they are connected, it just stops playing. I can resume by pressing the headset button. It cant be a problem with my earphones since ive already tried several different ones.
Does this problem occure to someone else? Solution?
Ty!
Well, it's going off becasue it looses contact with earphones.
Mine does the same thing, my guess is screwed up jack in milestone.
It happens only in the pocket/when phone can be touched by something, right?
yes.
so it seems like a hardware issue, right?
The phone rocks, but it does have some flaws. Right now I can't seem to pause and play without pressing the button on the headphones like 2 or 3 times. I tested out a few headphones that I know worked on my old Focus and my iPhone and they don't work consistently either.
I also tried the Focus S headphones on my iPhone and it works perfectly. Anyone experience this?
you know i have, i've been posting (*****ing) about this since sunday I'm suspecting a major flaw in the design of the jack itself, but we'll see. The next track/previous track doesn't seem to work at all, and the pause/play seems to take some manipulation to work
this happens to me as well, kind of really annoying, and really my only gripe with the phone.
I get a popping sound through the speakers in my car (AUX plug) when I change from track to track. I am using the same cord I used to use with my Focus and I've checked my Focus S in both of my cars that have an AUX input.
Has anyone else tried this?
Plug your phone into your car using a male-to-male 3.5 cord and play your music through it. When you change from one track to the next you'll hear a popping sound. It's much louder in my Lexus vs my Impala but it's obvious in both cars.
I am also having both the controller issue and the "popping" sound through the speakers of my car.
The volume buttons seem to work, but the play/pause button only works when I hold the button for a second or two before letting it go. Because you have to hold it for a second before it registers, you can't use it to go back or forward through songs. I tried the controller from my Venue Pro in the Focus S with the same results, so the problem is probably with the phone itself and not the controller.
Whenever I have an AUX cable plugged into my car with the engine on, I can here a loud whining noise that I assume is the cable acting as an antenna and picking up noise. When I plug in the DVP, it seems to sort of ground the cable and stop picking up noise even when music isn't playing. With the Focus S, the noise continues when the phone is plugged in and only stops when music is playing. During the short time between songs, music is not playing and there seems to be a sort of noise spike that makes a "popping" sound.
I suspect both of these problems are related and have to do with the jack as jmerrey suggests.
I have been having the same issues with both the Car playback and the controls on headsets. I really hope they fix this major flaw. This phone will go back if not.

FYI I am using a stereo Bluetooth headset from Motorola and do not see any of the above issues.
Volume up/down, pause/play and skip forward and back all work as expected.

that's because the issue stems from the actual headphone jack, it's not a software or firmware problem, but a hardware issue.
Okay I figured out how to get the controller to work pretty much 100% of the time. You can't just press the button, you have to hold it down for about half a second for it to pause and play consistently. Any more or any less than half a second and it won't work. I've been doing this for pretty much the entire day and it seems to be working now. Little annoying that it works on a delayed press but its better than not working at all.
Yes, but you still don't get the double press for next track, or triple for previous track. I've been able to get the double press to work a few times, but that's it. I've also noticed that with aftermarket sets, like a beats headset, it's incredibly inconsistent. I really hope this is fixable with a software patch, but I'm not holding my breath.

I have only volume up on all type of press button.
anyone hear if this is going to be addressed or if it has been acknowledged?
thanks
I have the same problem with my Focus S. The volume buttons are working fine, the problem occurs only with the play / pause button.
If you want to play / pause you have to hold the button longer than just the usual
short click. If you know the trick it works most of the time for play / pause, switching songs with a double click is almost impossible and very hard to time.
I tried it with the original headset from my Focus S and with the Nokia purity all have the same problems.
I also tried the all headsets with my Lumia 800 and a Omnia W all working fine.
It seems to be a Focus S only problem, not sure if it is hardware or software related.
I'm on 8107 using 2103.11.10.1 Firmware would a hard reset solve the problem??
firmware issue
I have experienced all of these problems above and here are a few tips/fixes and ideas. First with the headset controller on the ear buds, I noticed if you press harder it picks it up easier. If you get it down just right you can time it for going forward and backwards. Still not a real fix. Its definitely the phone because it works on my focus, iPhone, and mac. Also, I think it may be firmware related because the popping occurs between songs for the aux cable in the car only when audio isn't playing, so I would assume it had something to do with the firmware, not the hardware. It distinctly gets quieter when music plays, even if the music is silent (just knowing something is playing is enough for it to shut up). Also I noticed that when I plug in my phone for battery, it connects, disconnects and then reconnects. I noticed this with the vibration (should only be once, actually is 2-3 times). And when battery is low you notice because you plug in, it disconnects and you get a notice of critically low battery, and then it connects. I think this may be the firmware that all the ports seem to turn on and off whenever given any form of stimulus (data or power sent through them).

Tango and the new Samsung Firmware fixed this issue!!!
Now i can listen to my music how it is meant to be!!!
:victory::victory::victory:
i got tango, but no new firmware. Which update updated the firmware?
I got Tango, but I had to hard reset my Focus S to get the Firmwareupdate.
Maybe because I InterOP unlocked my Focus S, I'm not sure why it worked after a Hard Reset.
My Software is now:
OS: 7.10.8773.98
Firmware: 2103.12.05.2
yes but didnt the LE2 software update disable your ability to interop unlock your device?
if we can get the phone accept our own signed cabs we can extract the driver updates, fixes and patches and ignore the diagnostic tool updates that disable our interop unlock method.
in short make a backup BEFORE applying any samsung OEM updates, when you need to interop unlock again, you can revert to your pre OEM update, apply the interop unlock again, then re apply the OEM update. from what i gather you are best doing this every time you have an OS update as there have been issues with restoring backups that cross OS versions...
Oh course you lose any unbacked up txts etc, but i think the benifit outweighs the hassle.

I got the firmware update, but it didn't fix my headphone issues. It is still incredibly unresponsive, and the annoying clicking that is head better via aux cable is still present. Anyone have the same issue?
When i connect my earphones weird things start to happen. Sometimes phone doesn't recognize the earphones and shows the message. Sometimes it automatically opens up Google voice when i conncet the earphones. Sometimes the volume keys operate automatically. Sometimes there is no voice only instruments in songs. But when i press the earphones hard from the top. It works fine. I have tried different earphones, same problem. I have been using this phone for 8 months now. There were no such problems untill now.

It is probably coz of the damaged jack. M too having the same problem and I haven't found any software related solutions. It is better to replace it i think.
Sorry for my poor english
I have a very annoying problem with my headphones. When I plug them in, the phone recognise it and I can see the icon on top but I cant configure the miui sound boost settings etc. That is one thing but the main problem is, the songs pause randomly or just skips and the worst part is Google assistant pops up. This is driving me crazy because I can't listen to a single song without being interrupted. Anyone experiencing a similar problem?
Note my headphones were working perfectly fine on my mi 5s.
UP anyone?
