Hello everyone, I will be short : after few months using my DHD I was using the stock headphones with no problems to answer calls, skip tracks in music player etc...
But since a few days the buttons worked randomly and now even the mic does'nt work so I can hear but we can't hear me.
Of course I did'nt let them fall in my coffe or under a car or whatever, and I tried with many custom rom (full wipe etc..)and also with stock, thats why I ask some help from you.
I looked for few hours in many threads, and found that some users had this after they rooted their phones, I found that HD2 users had this too !! when using android in dual boot so Im 99% sure its a software and not hardware fault, unfornatunaly I did'nt tried to use the headphones on another DHD yet...If I can I give you the results.
THX for your help !
There is a app in the market called headset blocker (widget). Check it out and see if it may be of use.

thx I already tried it it does'nt fix the problem.
Little up for this annoying issue...
I have the same problem with my headphones. they suddenly stoped working. however, my problem is a hardware fault, because the headphones of a friends DHD are working as intended.
I think that yours is a hardware fault too.
I have the same problem, and it's NOT a hardware fault. I don't think yours is either.
The reason for this is that I exchanged and got a fresh pair today. They didn't work! As in, I can listen to music, but not pause or change songs, or talk with the mic. Extremely frustrating.
All this just using the default music player etc.
Yea, mine doesnt work too!!!, it happened as soon as i rooted my phone!!!
the buttons randomly work (i.e. sometimes when i press the buttons, it works, and some times it doesnt. The FF you Rewind the track, the Play could FF the track, etc...) its all random!
I posted a thread before and got no replies!, but its something got to do with the rooting i think. Its not H/W for sure!
I've flashed some ROMs too. It's good (and bad ) to know what im not alone!!
Doesnt anyone have a FIX for this?!
I faced this problem even I did not root my Desire HD. The problem seemed to be solved after I rooted it and flashed the rom ARHD 6.1.5. Unfortunately, I face this problem again now when I tried to flash the rom RCMix3D Runny v4.0. I think this is not a problem of HW but SW tho.
anyone have a FIX for this?!
Damaged pin? That's whats wrong with mine

Hi to all. I have a DHD with ARHD 6.2 Rom installed. This is the issue I 'm having. Anybody has got some idea? :
"with my music player something strange is going on... When I connect my headphones to listen,the music and the player go fine... After a while the songs start skipping on their own and some also go in fast forward...... It seems like if the phone is receiving some inputs like in the headphones with the built in control... I 've seen it happens when lockscreen goes on and goes on also after I unlock it.. I tried changing the values in daemon controller,maybe too low values,but it 's not this the bug....... I 've also tried to change the headphones,didn 't solve it.... I don 't know if it 's hardware because I also tried to move the cable and the jack plugged in the phone but nothing happens...... It happens on it 's own....... I really don 't have noooooooo idea.. :-\
ROM is installed after a full wipe."

Try an app called 'Headset blocker" by Roadkill, its free in the android market and simply blocks any false signals from your headphones. I had the same issue with mine but it kept calling people while I was listening to music!
Install the app and enable headset blocking, or keep the widget on your home screen and turn it on and off as you please.

Wow mate!thanks for that. I was already afraid to send it to HTC so I see I 'm not the only one... In fact the phone also tried to make a call,to my father! :-D. While I was listening to music...

I read in another thread that the number of rings on the headphones where you plug it in the phone causes the same problems. That is the problem that I have with headphones that I got.
i had a similar problem on the stock gingerbread a few weeks back. all it took to resolve it was a hard reset, fastboot off
Bought a Desire HD I rooted the phone with ace hack kit,whole procedure,downgrade root and all,everything went perfect. Didnt wanna flash a newer radio,cuz everything worked fine with any rom i flashed. I flashed it so far like 50 times,going back and forth with Erebus,Energy,SmartDroid, Android Revolution, Coredroid,etc.. after some weeks first time i plugged in my earphones,and trust me i have 3 pairs,all HTC all working. I get no sound at all on them,except some crackling and loud clicks. It is the same with every rom. When i plug them in,phone detects the earphones and puts out the icon of the phones,but no sound. When i try play music,or especially when i move the volume sliders in settings,the sliders quick freeze bit and give me these loud crackle sounds in the phones. Tried newest radio,no changes. Everything else works perfectly with the phone. if anyone can help with some idea,or at least help me convince that its hardware related and that i cant do a damn thing about it Worst is,i didnt try the phones BEFORE rooting :S cuz i rooted and flashed the phone like one hour after buying it
Thanks in advance for any help or idea,i searched and searched and couldnt find any answer yet
Sounds work ok without headphones?
How does the YouTube app sound?
If it's the same on every rom its probably hardware or a bad flash of something.
It's stupid but try this
Turn up the volume when the headphones are plugged in, work?
Turn off the phone and remove the batt for a few mins. It's important to remove the batt.
Work? Only solutions i can offer

Thanks for the suggestions.
Nothing of the above steps changed anything.
Youtube player works fine,tried it the first time now.
Without headphones everything works perfect.
When i turn up the volume while having headphones plugged in,i get these crackling clicking noises, when i move the sliders in the sound volume settings left right,i get these short freezes and crackle sounds
removing battery ( 5 minutes and more ) also changed nothing
Before every flash i do full wipe of everything,sometimes even 2 times (paranoia hm)
So basically,same thing on 5 different roms,fresh flashed or filled with apps to the max,and even without sd card or sim card
Right we'll start the process....
Can you force close some apps
Twitter
Facebook
Internet
Any others that you can, don't touch the main processes. Just basic apps.
Sound work?
If not, is fast boot on? Try turning that off and do the batt thing again for a few minutes and try again.
i force closed all i could and tried,no change
fastboot is one of the first things i turn off when i flash a new rom
tried both ways now,also again removing battery
but what i realise now,i discovered an artifact i didnt pay attention to (stupid of me)
without headphones sound on the phone speaker works perfect and all
but i realised,when i plug in the headphones,i was so focused on the crackle noises and clicks,that i missed the fact that from the moment when i plug them in (while playing a ringtone or any sound) the phone stops the sound on the speaker for like 1.4 second,and then again you can hear the sound on the phone speaker but very silent when i unplug,the sound gets back to normal loudness crazy
i tried 2 days ago to reverse the root process,with ace hack kit,but the process hanged,thought i bricked it,but brought it back to life everything else works perfect perfect,only this thing not
well,regardless of fixing this or not,i keep this beast,its an amazing device,and cant afford any servicing here,will be just sad not to be able to listen to music and play games enjoying on headphones i still hope its some software related business,and that i eventually find whats wrong
Not really any further information anywhere, I could only find

Some solutions say to plug headphones in and turn off phone, remove the batt and then boot.
Other than that, you don't seem to be alone! Might be a software problem with the specific hardware so could be worth posting feedback in the dev thread as only a minority of users are affected.
I think it must be something in the original downgrade that it didn't quite like.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! After suffering with no speaker sound and no phone ringing, relying solely on headphones or vibrate to know a call was coming or an alarm was ringing, I found your post and tried it.
As you can see by my delight ... IT WORKED! :highfive:
Thanks again :victory:
Ok, that's weird.
Recently i've bought my new earbuds (philips) though they don't have any "control" option where you can track skip and stuff like that but my phone changes music track by itself. I have tried changing roms (sense to miui) and changed music players as well but it's the same.
DO you think it is a problem of phone or my headphones. I mean the same thing happened when i was listening to radio, the tracks started changing all of a sudden. Also my headphones seem to be fine when they're connected to my laptop.
Any ideas?
Sometimes regular headphones cause problems with the phone due to incorrect contacts in the 3.5mm connector.
Search google play for "headset blocker" it'll do the job

Ok, it's not working for me lol, it doesn't matter whether it is enabled or disabled, it just doesn't work and the music changes by itself all the time sometimes very fast sometimes in the middle of the song.
Any other tip?

Had the same problem, especially in ics. Anyone a solution?

You should try to clean the phones jack. I had a lot of dust there and it caused just that same issue.

did you fix the problem by cleaning your jack?
Mostly yes, it still does it but wery rarely. You should search google for instructions.

ok so i've cleaned it properly (with a cotton bud, stuck inside) and there seemed to be some dust but it still doesn't solve the problem :/
btw, the ear buds i'm using, they have 2 strips on the jack, instead of 3 from the official earphones.

I found that I need to reboot for the change to take effect.
With that app headset blocker.
While the headphone is jacked in the phone, enable the headset blocker.
Because that's the way I do it and it seems to fix my random music skip/pause problems.
Headset blocked worked in every gingerbread roms. Sense(coredroid, arhd, runny Droid and more) and so with cm7 roms (absolution, black ice). Only rom that didn't work on was ICS, because ICS is still being developed.

I'm using miui and it doesn't seem to fix the problem at all. What works for me is when i pull the headphones out a bit but whenever i put it in my pocket it goes back to the same position and the problem occurs. I'll try to flash another (GB) rom and see if headset blocker would work.
Other tips are welcome and very much appreciated. Thanks
I have been getting that problem for the past few weeks... I want to know if the prob is in my phone or somewhere else... Btw my phone is alcatel one touch idol alpha
I've searched to the best of my abilities but I can't find anybody with the exact same problem where they got a solution.
I rooted my GNex a while ago, and I recently flashed XenonHD as well as Fancy Kernel (latest one).
I wanted to record a piano piece on my phone when I realized that none of my voice recorders work. When I select to "calibrate mic" for the auto-gain, it goes to infinity, which probably means it's at 0 no matter what. I also tried with my camera, and that didn't record any sound either (silent).
However, for the past couple of days, I've been talking to my friends on Phone, and my voice is clear and loud to them. Which makes me confused, because that means the mic is working (so I assumed that videos and everything would also work). But it's not.
I recently flashed InfinitySoundEngine1.0 (slightly old), would that have anything to do with it?
Thanks for the help everyone!
I'm using gStrings for tunning my guitar with my phones mic and it works pretty good. You should try reflashing your ROM and see if it solves your problem

Flash your ROM again and see if it works. If it does, then its probably that sound engine thing.
Since a few days I have no sound on my phone. Also the video playback is playing at a faster speed (I would like to say double speed). This afternoon I had problems trying to call someone, it kept saying Dialling but would not connect. The last seems to have gone away, but still no sound in video's/phone calls/alarms, etc..
Text messages, whatsapp messages, email etc. all seem to work fine. Even when I have no wifi, so I do have a good connection to my provider.
I have rebooted, reinstalled my rom (Cyanogenmod 10.2), gone back to an old nandroid backup, heck I was even that desperate I tried to go back to the original HTC stock rom, but I it wouldn't seem to install the stock rom, but just reboot.
But anyway, I'm back to cyanogenmod 10.2 but no affect. I'm still having the same issues.
I've searched the forum and only came across this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48419066#post48419066 but it didn't help me that much.
Also google hasn't helped me. 1 guy said it was his radio, but wouldn't seem that likely to me.
Has anyone else got this problem and if they do what have they done to fix it?
update 14-12:
It seems that not all video players play the video's at double speed. VLC keeps the video at the correct speed, but still can't seem to get any sound. Even streaming media (plex, youtube, etc. are playing at double speed!?) Incoming calls also can't be heard. The phone rings, but I can't hear anybody.
Same issue here.

moto x..no media audio after call
I have a motox... since the 4.4 update after a phone call there will be no audio in media players and they play (video) at what seems to be double speed.
If I disconnect Bluetooth, then reconnect it's fine till the next phone call...
This is not player specific, meaning any media player ( YouTube, Netflix, NBC news,NPR audio)
Btw..not rooted

Correct, it is, but its the same issue.. maybe not hardware dependent?
i had similar issue... it was a bad kernel flash and i fixed it flashing again the same kernel... if you still have the issue try another kernel/kernel version...
