Hi, when I plug in any earphones into the jack the volume randomly increases and decreases. This just happened yesterday suddenly, tried rebooting the phone a couple of times and no luck.
I've tried a few apps to disable volume control from headphones but can't find any which actually work.
This is really irritating since I am unable to listen to my music on my phone as it goes crazy when any kind of earphone is plugged in.
Anyone had this problem before and any idea what is causing it? I am currently on 4.3 and will try a software upgrade to see if it solves this problem.

I have updated already and the problem is still there, I have also gone a factory reset. Guess its a problem with the headphone jack, will be sending it in for a repair.

Hello,
When I boot my phone without my earbuds plugged in, the speakers of my phone are working fine. But I don't hear sound from my earbuds when they are plugged in.
When I boot my phone with my earbuds plugged in, my eadbuds are working fine. But when i take them out, my speakers aren't working. (both the speaker on the back and the speaker for calls)
I've searched google and this forum for solutions and both didnt work.
(I checked if my volumes were muted. but they were not.)
I'm using this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786696
Things I've tried:
- Wipe Dalvik cache and cache and update to the latest version.(08-11-12) Problem still exists
- Complete wipe of my data/cache/dalvik cache. flashed boot.img and installed rom again. Problem still exists.
- Different kinds of headsets. ALL of them give the same problem.
- Different kinds of apps for playing audio. All give the same problem. (Even the phone app)
Anyone got any ideas? I'm new to this so please be noob friendly.
Thanks
Forgot to mention: I use Hboot 0.43
Something is probably screwed up in system and I don't see it wiped from your list. Try factory resetting from cwm recovery AND format /system in cwm mounts and storage. Then flash cm10 nightly. Since none of the above will wipe boot partition, you may choose to not flashing boot. Img. However I would from your pc using
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Then reboot.

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately this did not work. The same problem still persists. Could it be that my hboot version is causing the problem?

Don't think so. But... Check your PM in 5
Did you try it with a different ROM to see if you have the same problem?
I tried installing another rom. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784185)
This has not changed anyting. I also found out that when someone calls me (When I have booted with eadbuds plugged in) I can hear the other person speaking through my earbuds. But when I put the call on speaker (Earbuds still plugged in) the sound does go over the speakers. But when I unplug my earbuds and try calling over the ear speaker I hear nothing.
I also forgot to mention that this problem occured randomly. I did not make any changes to my phone, or installed any new software/apps before it happened. From what I can remember I was listening to some music over my earbuds, and when I got called i plugged out my earbuds and tried to answer the call. From that moment the problem exists.
Also, when my earbuds are not plugged in (and i booted with them plugged in) and i plug them in, my music starts playing. When i dont have them plugged in, start playing music and plug them in my music stops playing. And when i'm listening to music over my earbuds and take them out my music won't stop playing like it's supposed to but it keeps on playing (even though i dont hear any sound from my speakers)
Try an ics rom please. Not a jb.
Tried installing an ICS rom. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601408) This unfortunately didn't fix it.

Try reversing what caused the issue?
Long shot but could work.
So by the sounds of it this would be.
Play music through speaker,
Call yourself.
Plug the headphones in and answer.
Then restart the phone or whatever and let us know?
Hope this works

Too bad didn't work. Also tried playing music through headphones,
call self
Plug out headphones and answer.
No sound :\
Okay it just got even weirder.. I found out that when i plug in my earbuds halfway, the phone opens the google thing where you can speak what you want to search.. When i plug them in normally it does'nt. And now when i dont listen to music over my earbuds and i change the phone volume, I hear the preview beep over both the speaker and my earbuds. I Really dont get what got into my phone
Bump, Still didnt fix it. When i boot with earphones plugged in, and take them out all sounds work, but music and phone calls only give sound over earphones. So this means nothing is physically broken. You guys got any more ideas? Installed Hboot 1.39 and Blade V4.0 rom. Didnt change anything
Bump
So I had something similar with my previous phone, Palm Pre; plugging in headphones caused intermittent speaker/headphone issues that was very inconsistent as well as triggering apps when half-in/out. In my case it was a physical issue, the jack had some pocket lint in it. I removed the fluff from a Q-tip, dipped the naked tip into isopropyl alcohol and cleaned out the jack. Other Pre users also mentioned that one of the contacts on the side-wall of inner part of the jack is "button like" in that it is pressed when the headphone pin enters the jack. When fluff builds up, the pin can force crap behind the contact and prevent it from being pressed properly.
Swabbing out the jack helped once or twice, but ultimately I gave up on using the headphones. Now that I'm jaded about it, I really wish the One X had a cover.
Thanks for the reply, but I dont think it's a physical issue, Since my ringtone still plays when i'm getting called (after booting with earbuds plugged in) and i can still call over the back speaker. Just not the front speaker. The issue is only there with media/music and calls. But how is it a software issue if updating my radio, changing my rom, and updating my hboot wont work

Bump, Anyone got any ideas? this is really annoying, having to reboot my phone every time i want to listen to some music and every time i want to make a phone call :\

Hey Folks,
I realized an big issue on my phone today:
When I listen to music over headphones, I can hear the music over the speakerphone (the one used while phoning), too. The sound is quite awful and is just some random noise. The issue appears in every music app, but only with headphones plugged in. When listening to loud music with the phone speaker, everything is quite fine. The issue only appears when the volume is nearly or completly turned up to max.
I have rooted my phone with the guide by Darkimmortal and [NUT].
Has anyone noticed the same issue? Might this be an software or an hardware issue?
Thanks

Over the past several days I have encountered a serious problem whenever I try to use headphones with my Mi 6. When I have a headphone plugged into the audio USB dongle and attempt to play music, at the slightest vibration, tracks will start and stop playing, tracks will change, the volume will shift, and the microphone will activate. This has made it almost impossible to listen to music with the phone anymore. I have tested this with two headsets, which both cause the effect, though it does not happen if I do not have a headset plugged in. Because I have had this phone since soon after it was released, my guess is this problem was caused by a recent MIUI (I'm on 10 8.10.11 Beta) update. It kept occurring even after I installed Blackplayer and tried using that instead.
It sounds more like a hardware problem to me, dirty or loose connections

I tried cleaning everything as best as I could, but to no avail. Does anyone else have any experience with this problem, or is there a way I could disable the phone from accepting input from the USB port so that my headphones will be usable?
Hey anyone have any audio issues on this phone or possibly another MIUI device? Here's what I'm getting:
Usually, I plug in my headphones and right away I get great volume and my player auto-plays. But as it keeps playing the music pauses for a second and then resumes automatically. The headphones icon disappears in the notification area for that time when the music stops. I thought it may be Poweramp's issue but the same thing happens in the default MIUI Music app. (Playing MP3s from SD card - haven't tried streaming apps yet.)
If I unplug and replug the headphones from the audio jack, the same thing happens still. But after I unplug and replug a bunch of times, eventually the music suddenly starts playing at about half the volume it was initially, and the problem no longer occurs! To clarify, the volume is still set to 100% but the actual output volume is only half as loud as it was initially when the problem occurs.
There's no MIUI audio settings I can find that could be responsible for this.. Any ideas??
This happened to me too, the problem is in outdated headphones jack. Try a few other ones, the newer versions of the handsfree will fit accordingly.

Interesting. Just to clarify, you're saying that the device I'm plugging into my phone (headphones) is the problem, right? It would make sense why other speakers I've plugged in haven't had this issue.. I wonder why it'd be happening since I've never run into this issue with any other phone and I've had these headphones for many years now.

Yes the device is fault. When you plug in the jack, the headphone icon starts blinking right? it goes on and off and keeps on until you force it to play some song.. I had been using my favorite headphones for 1.5 years and i had to buy new ones when i bought this phone because they wont work properly.
Hi all,
I have a quite common problem as I see in Samsung forums (example). A few weeks ago I connected my A50 to a BT speaker, then as soon as I disconnected it, the sound stopped working (system sound, media sound, etc.) and the audio & video playback is on FastForward like 5x mode. So if I play a video, an audio message, etc, I see the seconds of playback go crazy, sometimes at 2X rate, sometimes at 5X, sometimes slowing down...
As soon as I connect a BT audio device, the playback is normal again and I can hear everything. Sometimes if I reboot the phone, the sound from speaker comes back for a few minutes, but then it disappears again. Lately even reboot does not help.
I updated to latest version (A11, Jan 2022 Patch) and did a factory reset via recovery. The problem is still there.
Rebooting in Safe Mode make the sound works! But not immediately, I have to reboot in safe mode, let the phone settle down a few minutes and then I hear sounds. I check the sound with secret code *#0#*. Then when I go back to normal mode, even without any google and samsung account connected, without all personal apps, without SIM, the sound does not work.
Will a custom ROM solve this issue definitely? Or do you know how to solve it while keeping the stock ROM?
I also tried to debloat the phone disabling 125 apps via Universal Android Debloater but it did not help.
Im facing the same problem , did u find any fix?
This occurred on default os - i did factory reset and it wasnt fixed - installed a custom os and stil nothing.
Have you tried cleaning out the headphone jack? Sometimes if there's gunk in there it'll cause an intermittent or long term short that makes it think there's headphones plugged in.
