Headphone trouble - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Ever since upgrading my 3T to Oreo I'm having trouble with my headphones. It keeps changing the headphone icon to the one with mic, and then back again to the one without mic. It keeps doing this for a long time.
It also keeps pausing whatever I'm listening to, be it spotify, Google music or YouTube and changing the volume up and down. I also used to be able to use the"remote" on the headphones but it doesn't respond to anything these days.
Anyone got the same trouble? I have used multiple headphones and it does this with all of them.

Which headphones are you using?
Apple earpods?

[Q] Headphone and Bluetooth Audio Weirdness

I'm wondering if anyone else is having strange behavior either with Bluetooth audio or headphones. The phone is AT&T stock rooted 1.26.502.10 with unlocked bootloader and CWM. Here's a brief summary of what I am seeing:
When listening to audio books using headphone (Audio Book Player app) when I place the phone in my pocket in a locked state, it will wake up and dial the last number. It seems like there is a pocket sensor that is tripped and initiates a call. This can repeat itself several times. The dialing attempt tends to terminate itself if I don't intervene in time. I have not been able to reliably repeat the behavior in a predictable manner.
For bluetooth audio music (paired with an up-to-latest Ford Sync system) there is inconsistent behavior when using Google Play Music. Sometimes everything is fine. Sometimes on-screen (car side) audio controls will not work. Sometimes it will skip to the next song after possibly 10 seconds on the current song.
This is driving me crazy. If I don't figure it out, I'll throw on a custom ROM this weekend,
Thanks!
I have not had any of those issues so unfortunately I cant be of much help. The one problem I have had is that I have a bluetooth headset that also does media playback, which I always disable when in the car because my car does not do bluetooth and I want the audio to go out the headphone jack. Everytime I disconnect the headset it rechecks the "media" option on the headset and my audio plays from my headset and I have to go back to the bluetooth options and uncheck it. Very annoying.
Looks like it is a hardware issue. I can replicate by turning or wiggling the headphone. Problem appears to be in the headphone jack.

I have experienced the song skip as well. I can't successfully recreate it, but it always occurs when I'm on my motorcycle. At first I thought it was the headphone control being depressed, but I have eliminated that. So I think it does have to do with vibration/movement of the phone somehow.

Try putting pressure from various angles on the headphone plug as well as pressing on the case in the corner where the headphone is inserted. Much weirdness ensues in a very repeatable manner.

Hmmm...nothing happening when I do any of that.
I found that the wind across the microphone is somehow triggering the skip, for me anyways. I use the headphones that came with my One and I simply placed a piece of tape over the microphone. No more song skips.
Very strange as nothing is activating the voice control in the first place.

Popping sound when skipping songs when plugged into speakers

Hi,
When my Z3c is plugged into any speaker via the audio jack there is a popping sound any time a song is changed. The popping sound also occurs when transitioning between music and calls.
The problem only occurs when plugged into speakers or a car. I do not hear the popping sound with headphones nor when no accessories are attached.
So far I've tried 4 different cables across 2 cars, 1 sound system and 1 portable speaker. I am fairly certain at this point that it is a problem with the phone itself.
Does anybody have the same problem? Can anybody help? It would be much appreciated. I listen to music in the car very often, so this is quite an important issue with this phone for me.

Xperia X performance headphone jack issue

I have an Xperia X performance and it has never worked with my iOS headphones. It would cut out while listening to music (pause whatever there was) and when I hit the play button again it would output via the phones speakers. However if I hit the play/pause button on the headphone remote once and then again it would resume playback thru the headphones. This has never been a problem for me as I had tons of spare earphones so I never really bothered with investigating. Today I had to use them and I found out something strange. If I keep the screen on the music never cuts out. It seems to be that when the screen goes to sleep or outputs a lower current to the jack (possibly) does anyone know how to fix this or if this is the case at all with their phones?
It seems that the device doesn't recognize those headphones properly. Why don't you use the Sony headphones that came with the phone? They're miles better than Apple earbuds anyway.

Cannot listen to music properly with my headphones.

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?

Question Android detecting microphone while using non-mic headphones

Is it normal that when Im using wired headphones without microphone and accidentally move jack input (for example during hiding smartphone to pocket, but sometimes even it isn't necessary) sound starting to be distracted and after a while headphones icon is changing to headphones with microphone icon. And then google assistant is triggering to just tell me what time is it, btw stopping actual playing song. I remember same situation on Lg V30 when I was yet still using it, so I'm doubt it's just related to this phone, rather to minijack I guess?
Same here, happens to me as well.
