hello
I bought a used I9305 (stock rom 4.4.4) for my girlfriend but the back speaker/buzzer did not work.
Easy fix, I thought and put in a new buzzer,headjack unit.
But suprise: didn´t help.
With the headphone plugged it works just fine, every sound ok.
front speaker (phone) works, mic works, so you can actually phone.
Tried some settings as found in the web, tried pulling in out the jack, but that doesnt seem to be the prob as the phone recognizes the headphone and when unplugged.
Last thing before selling on was as here.
Maybe here are some experienced users who can help.

Hi all,
I have a brand new Note and I'm not sure that it's working fine:
When I plug the included handsfree in the jack, and yes all the way in until it "clicks", I have the following weird behavior:
- sound on phone conversation comes from handsfree but microphone active is not the one from the handsfree, it's the one from the phone
- when using Skype, sound comes from phone loudspeaker, then when I unplug the handsfree the sound comes from the phone earspeaker, then when I plug the handsfree again the sound comes from the handsfree... and while all this the active microphone is the one from the phone
I have no way to check whether it's the phone or the handsfree, both are new from unsealed box, I think I suspect the phone, and more precisely the phone is having a hard time knowing when/if its handsfree is plugged...?
I have another 10 days to return the phone and get a new one, anything that I'm doing wrong or shall I return it?
(It's a white Note running latest 2.3.6)
Thanks for your help.
As an update, I read that the Skype issue is... well, a Skype issue and that they're working on it...
But the problem remains with the microphone of the handsfree, still not working, not working when making phone calls, and not working with the application "Voice Recorder".
Any setting that I have to use in order to enable the handsfree mic to work and not use the phone microphone when the handsfree is plugged in (all the way until the click) ? I wouldn't think so but asking just in case before raising hell at the store so they give me a new one.
(BTW the phone's not rooted or anything, all stock 2.3.6)
Thanks for any feedback.
hello guys,
THE PROBLEM I AM FACING IS WHEN I CONNECT MY PHONE THROUGH AUX CABLE IN MY CAR THE SOUND IS VERY POOR (DISTORTED/CRACKING).
THINGS ALREADY TRIED-
1. USED DIFFERENT AUX CABLES.
2. STEREO OF CAR IS TOTALLY FINE AND PLAYING SOUND FROM OTHER FONES FLAWLESSLY.
3. NEVER HAD SUCH PROBLEM WITH HEADPHONES.
4. CLEANED AUDIO JACK SEVERAL TIMES.
INTERESTING THING IS THAT I HAVE A GALAXY S3 ALSO AND THE SAME PROBLEM IS WITH THAT BRAND NEW SET.
I HOPE YOU WILL REVERT BACK WITH THE MOST APPROPRIATE SOLUTION.
You need a new phone or someone to repair it. For the longest time my note 2 was suffering from the listed symptoms. I tried different aux cords. Even regular headphones wouldn't work. Didn't matter much since Imma bluetooth user. I read the threads on the net and come to find out the s3 along with a few other Samsung phones suffer from this. I just got a replacement phone and problem fixed

Change the headphone jack. Part is cheap and you can get on ebay. I recommend a oem one, not a china copy.
if you are having the problem with both your phones, then it is more likely that the problem is with your car stereo.. check the settings once again..
I know I'm not the only one having this problem, but past solutions don't seem to work anymore.
For some reason my phone does not recognize if I plug a headset into the audio jack, so the audio keeps playing through the speakers. I have to reboot the phone with my headphones plugged in to be able to listen to music using my headphones. I f I want it to switch back to speakers, I need to reboot once again with the headphones unplugged.
In the past the solution was to delete the "alsa" folder, but that folder does not seem to exist anymore. I'm using Omar's rom from August 2014 I think. When installing it I did a factory reset, so I'm not sure what else to try. Does anybody have any suggestions?
I have the same problem and it existed on 4.0.4, 4.1.2 (both stock) and now on 4.4.4. (Hazou's CM11) so I'm not sure it's ROM-related, as like you i did a clean flash.
I also had the same issue with ICS and JB stock. I was convinced it was a software issue because it always started to work when I restarted with the headphones in. I know it sounds crazy but have a dig around in the headphone jack for fluff, I picked a few bits out and I *think* that mostly solved the problem. Also try different headphones, I found some fit tighter than others.
Hello,
I am having the same problem on my RAZR i. I am under Android 4.4.2. I installed this: susomena.headphonesindicator (apps Play store) (in french : Indicateur de Casque)
and everything works perfectly. . I am new user and I can not post outside links.
Hi, it's my 1st post on xda forums and my english is very bad (I'm French) so pls forgive me for that.
My problem is a bit strange, my nexus doesn't accept all the headphones jack... I mean, before, I was listening music with my headphone (Philips Fidelio M1) when I'm outside, and at home I use my speakers 2.1 (Focal xs) with a standard jack on both. But, since a few days, the jack from the Focal XS is not working with my nexus 6 (the music comes out from the Nexus's speakers), but works fine with other devices and the jack from my headphones is still working perfectly...
I have to precise that I'm using Viper4android but It was working fine with it before.
Thank you for your answers, have a good day.

Sometimes you don't have it set well enough and you have to give it another push to make sure it connects. Also you can try a reboot. I have had the same issues, but with bluetooth. Sometimes, even with bluetooth connected, the song will play through the speakers. I think it's just a lollipop bug. Usually a reboot fixes it for me.

Unfortunately it's not as simple as that, I tried a reboot and the problem is still present. I have to be more precise : I tried several times and the jack from the speakers 2.1 never works and the jack from my headphones always works. It's so strange... I tried with my sister's headphones and is still working but on another external speakers the problem is back. I tried also to connect it in a friend's car and it worked perfectly fine. It seems like not all the 3.5 jacks works... But before I didn't have this problem.

Are you always using the same cable for external speakers? Maybe it is the cable?
Like I said... The cable is working perfectly fine with any other devices (my PC, and others phone for example).
I had the same issue with when I had viper installed. Uninstalled it and all is fine now
Ok... Ty for your answer, It must be the same bug for me... But I really love v4a, I hope they will fix that soon.
Had the same problem with viper. Is your problem still persistent after uninstalling v4a?
I didn't uninstall it for the moment, I can't say...

Yep same issue with viper/ uninstalled re flashed ROM everything normal.
Just to add to this... I'm on COG2 and still having the headphone jack issue....im using Viper as well. The only reason I use headphones is because Viper makes it sound so good! Haha. Strange issue...
So I am having some problems with headphones and my Z3 Compact.
Some time ago my headphones (NOCS NS500 android version) stopped working. Phone wasn't detecting when they are plugged in. I thought that headphones them self got somehow damaged. But they work fine with my pc and tablet.
Headphones that came with the phone work just fine.
After some google'ing I made my NOCS work again with soundabout, but controls don't work, NOCS app for that doesnt work either.
So the question is - is there a way to fix this? So that my phone sees these headphones as Sony headphones?
Thanks
P.S. I did go through general part of the Z3C forum and used search didn't find anything helpful So I am sorry if this was already asked and answered.
