Does anyone have trouble with the headphone jack being hypersensitive? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Literally the most annoying thing in the world - whenever I put my phone in my pocket, it'll usually unplug for a second, pause my music, change the media volume, then replay my music. This happens with all of my headphones, with my AUX cable, even with the headset blocker app.
Basixally the headphone jack is extremely sensitive. Is this just me? Is my phone defective?

Sounds like a hardware defect, grounds for replacement.

Do you have any kind of sound manager such as DSP manager/Beats/VooDoo?

Been happening to me too im thinking its because I have walkman app and regular samsung music player. If you have 2 music players try deleting one and see if that helps. Im on jedi rom btw.

Nope, but I'm using the PowerAmp EQ if that counts for anything.

Volume issue...

Just recently I have noticed that whenever I unplug headphones from the audio jack, the media volume goes all the way down and I have to manually raise it. Anyone have any ideas/solutions for this?

Are you using a sense rom or cyanogenmod? On sense rom it does that to me as well, but if you use cm6 or 7 go to dsp manager and edit the headphones settings and it saves your preferences. Also try adjusting the volume settings in the sound settings instead of using the volume keys. I think this is what you're asking about.

I am using MikFroYo 4.4. The thing is, this started roughly a week ago. Prior, I have had no volume issues whatsoever.

Per chance might the quality of your headphones be dying? Or potentially a dirty jack?
Well, the thing is, it isn't when I am using the headphones. It is after I unplug them and use the built in speaker. For example, I use the aux in on my car stereo to listen to music on my way to work. When I unplug the Evo once I get to work, the media volume has essentially muted itself and I have to manually raise it.

Well if you're using a Cyanogen mod, check you sound settings in settings>cyanogenmod settings>sound
and check for the "when headset" in parameters, seems as if that may be the issue. The db could be altered via headphones in or out.
Well, I am using Mikfroyo 4.4, so I don't have that option.

Sprint s3 won't resume audio after call

Hi. I was wondering if anyone else could reproduce an issue I was having with my phone. While listening to music thru headphones if I make or receive a call after hanging up audio doesn't return right away. It takes a lil while and it then comes back. I can reproduce this over and over again. Was wondering if it was just my phone.

Anyone willing to test. Any carrier.

Mine works... But maybe you can define "a while"
I know what he means it will not playing again until a minute or so
Which app are you using to play the music. And or is there any other music player app also alive in memory,
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Thanks guys for the assistance. I use poweramp. But I can reproduce it with the stock music player also. Music playing > make or receive call and music pauses like it should> I hang up> music does not resume and I can't hear any sounds from the phone at all for at least 15secs. I only use one music player at a time so only one should be in memory.

Anyone else this morning. Any help is appreciated and thanked. Just making sure this behavior is common before I return the phone.

This is what i do i talk through my car speakers and or headphones pending what im using i unhook right before i hang up let the audio play through the phone speaker then reconnect it again its annoying but it works
Also i use poweramp and it has this problem even though poweramp has a setting to resume call
Thanks man. I've been experiencing this issue since I bought the phone. And it doesnt matter the ROM rather its stock,blazer, or cm10. Its the same issue.

Hey master acehole. I think I found a lil fix. Thru power amp settings and headset settings I raised the headset handler priority. The sound loss stopped. Thanks for all of ur help bro.

Having the same issue
I'm having the same issue on my S3 running poweramp, though I'm not on Sprint (got it unlocked, international).
The only differences:
- I'm using a bluetooth headset
- The song resume's but there's no audio from the headset at all (not even after 5, 10 minutes - however long)
- I have to turn bluetooth off/on to get the audio back
I also tried using the stock player with the same results!
Would love to know if it's a problem with the phone, app or headset.
Thanks
Exact same issue here. Must be a samsung thing because many people are having it across ROMs and music players, so annoying! Anyone find a fix yet?
I can verify this as well.
Happens with Amazon MP3, Stitcher Radio and Audible for me.
The delay for me is at least 1 minute, but if you close the audio app and reopen it, then everything is fine (so it can work before the 1 minute).
Try Monkey Media player
Try monkey media player, I had the same issue with my S3, but with Monkey media it got resolved. just an FYI you had to play with settings

Sound distortion

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone else has this issue, I'm running CM10 and the music quality isn't too bad while running the headphone jack to speakers, ie my car, home. But when I plug my headphones and and try to play with DSP at all it always sounds distorted and sound like the headphones are blown, this only happens after I enable something with DSP, the headphones are fine. I also tested on my zune and my roommates Droid X2, both of which sound much better than my phone.
Any suggestions or solutions would be great, the headphones are sennheiser HD558's

DSP distorts the sound, no way around it. Try poweramp music player, it uses it's own equalizers and settings and has great sound.

At first I only used it because Apollo wouldn't play certain file types that I had, loved it ever since.
I've been using power amp for two years and love it

OK I've been testing it and its great in the EQ setting the limiter is what makes the difference, it stopped music from peaking. Thanks guys

Weird Sound Bug

Almost everytime i plug headphones into my Galaxy S III, no sound plays into them. What i noticed, is that when i try to turn up the volume, the little sound icon that is next to the volume bar, has a slash through it. I have tried every combination of sound setting (that i know of) and the only way to fix it is a restart. This is VERY annoying so if anyone has any thoughts or help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Are you using any sound app?

I've had that slash through the sound icon as well. But I was still getting sound through my headphones.. but you were saying how you get no sound at all coming out of both headphones if they are plugged in as well as the speaker phone?

Try changing the SoundAlive setting in Music Player.
Also try changing these:
Settings > Accessory > Audio Output and Audio Applications.
Settings > Accessibility > Mono Audio
Have you tried different headphones? How about the ones which came with the S3?

Well if the stock ones work then it sounds like the problem may be with the earphones you are using. Can you try them in another phone? (Preferably another s3) are they older earphones? If so it could be the cord is worn where it connects to the plug.

Kinda depends on what you are listening to doesn't it? It does for me at least. I use rock pre setting and turn the bass a little more up, that or I use soft acoustic, with bass turned up a little. But I'm no audiophile.

I listen to trap music (kinda dubstep but filthy) thanks will try tomorrow
