If you had factory reset and it's still there, I think it's a hardware problem... But don't take my words as a fact though. If you still have your warranty take it to the service center.

Hi,
I have the handsfree headset that came with my Desire, now about 2 months old. A couple of days ago the control buttons on the headset stopped working, I can no longer remotely answer calls, or pause and change music tracks. The headset earphones and microphone still work, I can listen to music and use it for phone calls that have been activated from the phone itself.
The headset itself has not received any 'obvious' damage, it hasn't been dropped in water or the like.
Before I go out and buy a new headset I thought I'd better try and confirm if they were indeed at fault. Is there, for instance, a phone setting to disable the headset controls.
Have you tried rebooting the phone? I once had the media service play up and the keypresses stopped working until I rebooted the phone.
You could also have installed some other software which are capturing the button inputs.
The buttons work over the microphone wires, so its unlikely to be a broken cable if the mic is still working.
I have done a soft reset, taken the battery out, no help. Next move, I suppose is a hard reset back to factory settings. I've not done one of thesebefore, what do I lose, or better put, what doesn't the back-up save?
Been having some problems with making and receiving calls which appeared yesterday, all this without dropping my phone or anything, it was just in my pocket.
Whenever I try to make or receive calls the phone thinks there is a headset attached so I can't hear anything that the other person says, I've never actually connected a headset to my phone either and there is no icon in the status bar for it.
I was using MIUI when the problem occurred so I tried doing a full wipe (data/cache/dalvik) and installing Cyanogen, same problem. So I tried installing a market app called 'headset blocker' still to no avail. Finally I tried going back to MIUI with a full wipe and using 'headset blocker' and it still doesn't work!
I can call fine if I put the phone on loudspeaker and the music plays through the speaker fine as well so I'm just not sure what else to try.
I read somewhere that a switch in the headphone port controlling whether a headset is connected or not could be the problem but didn't really want to have to take it apart unless I had to, anyone got any ideas?
Thanks for any help.
EDIT: Just tried putting my headphones in and wiggling it around and at one position (about half in) the phone thought there was a headset attached (an icon appeared in the status bar, before no icon was there) and wiggling it some more made the phone start a song briefly. So it's looking like it's a hardware fault..
Just in case anyone comes here with a similar problem, I took it to a local repair shop to be fixed and in the end it had nothing to do with the headphone port or the actual ear speaker. It turned out to be the ribbon connecting the two halves of the phone, no idea how it happened but it's fixed now!
Hi everyone!
I have a strange issue with bluetooth pairing between my Nitro and BlueAnt S1 in my car. Phone doesn't see bluetooth device. The only devices that it finds - it's phones. Does anyone else have a problem with the discovery of a media devices?
So far I haven't had this problem. Mine pairs with my truck for phone or media.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA App
I'm not sure how it was before unbricking, but afterward I cannot start a call with the bluetooth enabled and a device paired.
It was my fault. I found the problem. Memory in car kit device was full, I made reset and phone found and paired to car kit device immediatly.
Well, interesting. I just tried pair phone to a laptop, the phone and laptop showed different auth codes.
After few unsuccessful tries pair from laptop and from phone itself the phone decided to crash and rebooted itself straight to boot animation bypassing the two lg logos. After that it was acting sluggish and I disabled bluetooth and rebooted it.
Then I installed different BT driver on laptop and tried pairing them again, with exact same result. With no phone reboot I left BT enabled and after an hour or so I received a notification message that internal memory is getting low. Opened applications list, nothing out of ordinary, so I rebooted the phone, now it stuck at boot animation, except it's not looping, the animation did just once. I can access phone with adb but no root and can't even list anything besides the / directory, everything else is denied.
BT is f.up?
P.S.
running unbricked 10i
Definitely some oddities epithet this phone. Personally hoping that cm9 will clear most of this up!
I'm on 10i as well. I haven't been able to make a call once with bluetooth. Never tried before I had to unbrick.

After hard reset the BT worked fine, so I suspect it's due to some bloatware freeze I did in the past.
Bluetooth issues as well
I also cannot make successful calls with Bluetooth enabled after I rooted this phone.
- I rooted the Phone.
- I did a full factory reset
Everything works fine until I pair a Bluetooth headset to my device, then everything slows to a crawl and becomes unresponsive.
It takes 3 mins for the phone launcher to pop up when I hit a speed dial to call some one.
Please help. is there a fix for the bluetooth pairing issue?
I actually make phone calls on my phone and I like handsfree when I am driving.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated.....

I have tried almost everything to fix this problem but i just can't.
When i connect my headphone (beats and normal Samsung one) to the phone and click on play or next/previous button, nothing happens. The phone wont recognize the buttons. 4 days ago everything worked perfectly. It just suddenly happened. I was on AOKP milestone 4.
When it happened the first time, 4 days ago, i thought it might be a problem in the ROM so i wiped everything and rebooted phone. Still the same. I then re flashed the ROM several times and it was still the same. So i just got angry and put phone away. Then after 14 hours or something i plugged headphone back in the phone and opened up poweramp. Then i hit play button on headphone and suddenly it worked. I was happy, but after 1 minute i hit pause button and phone wouldn't recognize it. I kept plugging and unplugging the headphone and after several tries it worked again for a minute or two, then it didn't. This made me think it is a software problem. But when i had headphone plugged in and let music play and unplugging the headphone, the music kept playing, with no sound (Music was playing when headphone was plugged in, but then i unplugged it, but music didn't stop like it usually does when u unplug the headphone). Now the speaker didn't work. After some minutes later it magically worked again.
Now i was wondering if it is a hardware problem. Another thing to mention is that when this happens(no sound after unplugging the headphone) the phone sensor in dialer wont work. When i make a phone call to someone, the phone sensor wont work, meaning, the phone wont go black when i lift it up to my ear. Also no sound from the front speaker. So i have to use headphone to call someone, until the phone speaker works again. Then the dialer sensor will work again.
I have tried about 3 ROMS and they are all the same. I have now flashed stock Google 4.0.4 and it's still the same. Now unrooted.
Please if you don't understand some parts of my problem, ask and i will try to answer in a better way.
Will take a video soon, hopefully it will be easier to see what problem i have.
Video 1: Here I have just rebooted the phone and opened music app to see if the button on headphone works. As you can see it works the first time i plug it in. But after that it doesn't work. You can also see that once i remove the headphone, while music is playing, the phone speaker wont work. !!! Something i forgot to show you... You can see that phone speaker wont work when i unplug the headphone, but when i click up and down volume button on the phone buttons, you can hear them. Its only the music/movie/dialer etc that doesn't work.
Video 2 : Here i am testing the beats headphone, just to show you that it isn't the Samsung headphones fault.
Video 3: Here i am showing you that the phone sensor wont work in dialer.
Video 4: This one is very strange. I have plugged in the headphone, but when i click volume buttons on phone, you can hear it from the back speaker. This shouldn't happen right? I mean when the headphone is plugged in, then all sounds should be coming from the headphone, not the phone speaker.
Bump. Any suggestions?
*For the last 2 days the buttons actually worked for several hours, but as soon as i take them out, they wont work for god knows how long...
Ok if no one knows anything, can someone give me some advice on what to say when I return the phone? I still have warranty but don't know if this will be covered by it. Also i have just flashed stock google 4.0.4 ROM, but is there anything else I should before returning the phone? Phone is bought from Netcom Norway.
So my problem starts with the motorola finiti headset. Pairs and connects fine. after being connected for a while and going about my day the phone rings but not through my headset. The bt symbol up in the notification bar shows its connected but when I go into bt setting it just says paired. Sprint replaced my phone, motorola replaced my headset still same problem. I call samsung they tell me to try a samsung headset I do same damn thing happens. I send my phone in to samsung (thinking they have headsets to try) they send my phone back saying it passed all functional testing. I get it back it still does the same damn thing. I call them back they say this time send your phone in with the headsets. we dont have any to test with??? So y the hell didnt u tell me to send the headsets the first time? So 1 week without phone got it back for 2 days now Im without again. Phone was stock no root when started. Rooted it still same thing.
TLTR: anyone else have prob with bluetooth saying connected in notification bar but in settings it just says paired? I have a screen shot I will show when I get home.
