Audio jack works only with speakers? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, I recently started having problems with my n6 audio jack.
Basically, when I plug my earpads I could hear unfull sound (like when you not plug the audio to the end and you don't hear bass or words)
And the earpads are pretty new, and worked well before, also work well on other devices.
Weirdly enough when I plug my speakers they work totally fine.
I've tried clearing the inside with alcohol and ear cleaner and it does now recognize earpads but unfull sound( prior it was not even recognizing the earpads).
But still its unusable, I have long driving every day and I need this audio jack ;/
What could be done to fix it?

Phonespeaker dead, headphone works HELP

I tried multiple rom updates ( downgraded, upgraded ) and I cant get my speaker to work again after it suddenly stopped working today after listening to winamp.
Headphones work fine. I didnt hit, slam or throw it down so I really have no clue what this problem is... anyone have an idea ?
Most likely (I'm willing to bet) that your headphone jack is broken and thinks you still have your headphone inserted (Muting all noise on the phone's speaker). Try playing with the headphone jack by inserting and removing your headphone a couple of times. Some people had luck with that, I read one here recently someone cleaned their headphone port by blowing air in there and their phone speaker worked again. Good luck.
i had same thing happen to me today. yes, wiggle the headphone jack and you'll get your speaker back.
back to-resoldering the headphone jack (it's the 3rd time it becomes loose).
i've said this before -- the build/material quality of blueangel SUCKS.

[Q] Audio Speaker Problems?

Hey guys, over the past couple days, it seems my phone has lost some audio abilities, what's weird is that some audio STILL works, here we go:
- Notifications (Text and email) *WORK*
- Music Player/Youtube Videos/Phone Calls(inside the call, and ringing) *DO NOT WORK*
- Phone Calls in SPEAKER mode *WORK*
Here's what I've tried:
- Flashing to stock via Odin (Did a flash, didn't master clear.)
- Reflashing Serendipity 6.3 (What I was using before, should I maybe try a different ROM? It's an i897 ROM.)
- "Pressing" on the speaker, as I heard some have connection problems, but this is almost a year after owning the phone.
- Different audio apps (Stock music app, and PowerAMP)
Any ideas?
Bump. REALLY need help.. Trying a format/reflash now...
so the ear speaker isnt working but the Loud speaker does?
the "press on it" trick is for the loud speaker on the back..
sounds like a hardware problem. there is a REALLY EASY FIX. call samsung and get it replaced. flash to stock before you send it in.
I bought it from ebay, new in box. The chances of Samsung accepting my phone for a refurb is nonexistent, isn't it?
Being without a phone isn't an easy fix for me. =P
Bump. Solution found.
It was actually my headphone jack failing. I pushed in my headphones, played some music and noticed the button on the samsung headphones wasn't working, I took the jack out, blew into it, and now the headphones no longer work, but audio is coming through the speakers again.
Fixed my problem, although it wasn't the fix I wanted, since I use my phone for all my music, constantly.
I had the same problem. Turned out to be lint from my pocket in the headphone jack. If you have lint, get a needle, take pliers and bend a small hook in the sharp end. Pull out the lint that got jammed in with your headphones. I posted this fix a while ago in the SamsungCaptivateForum.com. I thought I was the only one who had the problem.
You know, that makes a lot of sense. I took a can of air spray this afternoon and let the headphone jack have it, and now it seems fixed. I think it might have been dirt from work. (Damn you, construction!)
Nice!
Thanks for the tips, I was having the same speaker issue and this certainly helped me out. My music player would cut in and out randomly if had it playing on the loud speaker.
How bout a pair of bluetooth stereo headphones instead of relying on headphone jack? I have motorola motorokr s305. I got em off ebay for $30 and they work pretty good.

Blown auxiliary port?

Alright I've never started a thread,so bare with me. Is it possible to blow the auxiliaryport on the top of the phone? I ask, because no matter what I plug into it. Be it headphones,auxiliary cables for car stereo, Bose speakers for home..... they all sound like the speakers are blown, amenities know they cant be. What happened is I am on the miui Rom, and was talking to my wife thought the car speakers. When we hung up I didn't realise that the car speaker volume was all the way up, so when it made the call ended beep sound, it was loud as hell! After that it sounded like I blew my car speakers. But when I put in a cd, the speakers sounded fine. Also fine with the radio.already long story short, no matter what kind of speakers I use, they sound blown as long as its pluged into my aux port on the phone. Has this ever happened to anyone else , and how do I fix it short of trying to get replacement phone? Will reflashing miui Rom work? Flashing a different kernel Did not. I am sooo confused lol

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.

[Q] MAJOR audio problems!!

Hi people
So here's the issue. Yesterday I was playing music through my speakers, all was fine, then I stopped the music. Later I put my headphones in the phone but there's no sound. Then I tried through the phone speakers. Still no sound. I've tried re flashing kernel and ROM, but it's still the same. I'm guessing something has possibly fried on the main board that deals with all sound through headphones and speakers? Mic is fine though.
If anyone has had this issue before or any info I'd love to know about it.
Peace out
UPDATE: the top speaker works on calls I can hear the other person (unless this is another speaker in the grill), and I can also hear a very faint sound through headphones. I saw someone else with the same issue and someone advised to delete Google play services data, which I did, but to no avail
Very similar problem here - no speaker audio, no headset audio (I don't think I'm getting even faint sound through the headset jack), but bluetooth audio works fine. I've tried restoring from two different Nandroid backups with no luck and am now restoring back to today's nandroid.
If anyone has any info or even guesses about this, let us know...
I've already found out that this happens due to a flex cable over heating internally. Not sure which internal flex cable as there are multiple and the audio Jack and speaker flex cables don't seem to be linked. I'm taking mine to a shop
