ok so i got my note 3 about 6 days ago and just noticed somthing that i dont like, the headphone jack is acting very strange.
first of all when i plug in a pair of headphones its not a very smooth entry its sort of choppy and doesnt feel very premium,
second, when i plug in my headphones sometimes the microphone stops working, and i hear a very loud thump everytime i change the track. now i noticed that it only happens if i insert the headphones slowly, and not only that but if i do that there is a horrible screetching sound coming from the headphones, it doesnt seem normal and it seems like a hardware issue.
thanks
Definitely seems like a hardware issue, have you tried other headphones. Shined a light down the headphone jack and see if there is any debris in there.

Hello,
When I plugin my earphones in the 3.5MM jack of my DHD it makes a weird noise, I think that's normal it because it means that it is connecten I think. It's like the oldschool televisions when you have no reception it makes a weird sound 'BGGGG' like but this doesn't even last a half second. BUT if I play a little bit//when I my jack is in, and I spin it a little bit, you hear it sometimes again.
I was wondering, is it broken or a defect or is it normal that if you spin with the plugout of your headphones that it sometimes makes a weird sound? It doesn't really bother me or sometimes when I am listing to music but I am a little bit scared that it is defect
Thank you!
When you plug it in the noise your describing is normal but only then should that noise be heard for a split second.
Maybe it's you headphone 3.5mm jack end that is the problem or wires. Try with different headphones and see if they make the same sound.
I just tried this now and I get no extra weird noise when I rotate the plug.
Hi guys
For me, this is a minor annoyance at best, but I just want to know if this is normal.
Occasionally when I plug in a pair of headphones in my GNex, it generates noises in the headphones and I need to wiggle the plug to make it go away.
However, there is another problem, although I suspect this is a software issue on this one. The problem is that if the phone is playing music at this point, wiggling around the headphone will cause the music to pause. I think this is because the system thought I unplugged the headphones.
I wasn't going to ask this because I thought this is due to my old and cheap earphones giving out, but this happened again with another pair of new earphones, it often happens when I first plug in the headphone for a long time.
Anyone had similar experience and/or any solution or thoughts?
Thanks in advance for any inputs
For a second there I thought this was the general forum
It sounds like your headphone jack is wearing out or has always been loose. Send it back to samsung and get it fixed

It must be a defective jack cause mine is solid as can be. No noise or loose connection at all, and I use it constantly.
Thanks for the replies, although I seriously hope that it's not due to a defective jack.....
I found similar audio issues with other phones, and they pointed out that it might due to a dusty jack.
I cleaned my jack a little bit and everything seems to be okay now It is a bit dusty though.....
Hopefully this will be the end of the problem. However I will contact Samsung for sure if this problem arises again.
Hello people.
I have a problem with my headphones when plugged in my HTC Desire, when i plug them in the phone shows me they are plugged in but only one headphone works (the left one), i have to mention the headphones are 4 pin ones (mic + 1 button) and mic and button works good but the right headphone doesn't . They are not faulty as i use them in my laptop and they work good. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.

Take a needle, and try scraping the bottom of the phone headphone plug. Dirt usually gets stacked there, and it needs cleaning from time too time.
Not working, same problem. If it take them out a little so that the phone doesn't recognize the microphone ring (connector on jack) they work good, when i plug them back in just left one works (the one with the microphone).

Maybe your headphones are not compatible with your phone. I remember people saying something about connections not being standard on the phone so some headphones won't work properly. Try some other headphones and see if the same thing happens

I tried some samsung headphones today, same 4pin with mic, on these ones the right one works but the left doesn't. It's becoming really annoying as they sometimes work as they should and the rest of the time just the left one works

Then it's 100% socket problem. If abaaa's advice didn't help you probbably the welding on the socket got loose. For that you need to disassemble your phone and see which contact is bad with a magnifying glass

The socket feels solid in it's place and i don't have a magnifying glass around.

It should feel solid. Problem is that welds come a little loose. Try to move your headphones jack in the socket in all directions. If they play fine at some moment it's the weld

These are the connectors at the back of the motherboard. Thank god for having 2 camera lenses. Sometimes if i replug the headphones they work well but just for some time...
bump bump ?
I often plug my phone in to my stereo system using the headphone jack.
I've noticed that when the phone is not actually playing something I can hear some little crackles and occasionally some buzzes.
I've tried it plugged in to several sources and they all show the same bahaviour, so it's not the stereo, it's the phone.
Anyone else have a noisy headphone jack?
Did you try all of them with the same wire? That could be the cause of the noise.
I've only tried mine with a wired headset and didn't notice any noise.
Yes, different wires

Good question. Yes, I tried two different 1/4 inch to RCA cables and also my 1/4 inch to cassette adapter. Also tried a different phone with the same cables and had silence.
This only happens to me when I plug my AUX cable in my car into my 5X, but it doesn't happen when I put my headphones into it.
I can hear an audible noise every few seconds when I have my headphones on and nothing playing on the phone.. No issues with those headphones plugged into other devices.
Also, my output volume is low. Need to crank my stereo up in my truck when this is connected via aux. Full volume on both the phone and truck is equal to about half when using my nexus 6.. Huge disappointment.
I have this same issue and I've also noticed that the device does not get loud enough when plugged into my cars stereo on my S5 I can the volume all the way up on the phone and keep the stereo at 25 and it would be loud enough for me but now with my 5x I have the phones volume all the way up and the stereo set at 38 "witch is the max volume for the system" and I'm still left sometimes with wanting the music to be louder so hopefully this can be fixed with a software update

Same experience here with the volume in my truck compared to my old phones
I've noticed this happening on my phone as well. It does it with two different aux cables (not when I plug in headphones, though, oddly). My roommate's 5x does it, too. Turning the screen on stops the crackling. I recorded a video of it (I apparently can't post outside links so you'll have to build the url yourself): youtube . com/watch?v=-RObC7bZcQs
The volume seems fine though.
Edit: I received a replacement phone yesterday, and it has this issue as well.

Yes, I can report the exact same behaviour.
If I put a different phone on the exact same setup, there is complete silence when that phone is not playing back audio.
Anyone find a solution to this?
I get a pop in the silent gap between every song on Pandora. I am using a Bose Q15 noise cancelling headphones and nexus 5x with marshmellow. With new batteries in the headphones and low volume 15%..
I've been noticing the same issue. It only happens when no audio is playing back and the screen is locked. When I unlock the device there's no popping until it locks again.

Ditto. Getting pretty frustrated with so many accumulating little annoyances on Nexus phones.
So I have read about Z5P having headphone jack problems. So mine has started to that today. If I pressed on my headphone jack so hard it would detect the headphone but if I relased my finger it would detect that headphone is disconnected which is still connected.
So I reasearched and found out about soundabout and I tested it and it detects my headphones with it. And I also realised that headjack is a bit loose and my plugged in headphones can shake a little bit inside the jack. So I think this is hardware+software problem.
The think is headphone jack is definitely broken but why does it work with soundabout? Oh also if I shake the jack while headphone is connected it will also disconnect from soundabout but that is not bad as without it (at least it works).
I am also using the m-rom light build will that cause a issue?
I guess this phone is totally dead will never ever get support from someone considering the activity on this forum. Looking forward to replacing this piece of crap.

I replaced the headphone port and turned the problem off and then came back again after using the note that I rarely used headphones

A bit late replay but it seems that headphone jack quality on Z5P is just terrible.
