Headset mode buggy - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Some rain might have entered the headphones port while I was in London. Have tried the Nintendo cartridge blowing trick, doesn't seem to have any effect. The phone randomly goes into Music Mode and just now when I was in a call, Headset Call Mode kept flip-flopping till the other end can't hear me.

[Q] Audio issues

Was on EH06 leak, stock rooted. Use car dock, bluetooth, and headphones often during an average day. At some point yesterday, my phone's audio became broken. I've since Odin'ed back to EC05, and its still the same issue. Most of these symptoms lead me to believe the phone always thinks there are headphones plugged in. BTW, I have tried plugging in several different headphones. Certainly seems like a hardware problem, so I'll try Sprint without insurance to see what they'll do. Appreciate any input.
What does work:
+When I get a call, the phone actually rings out of its speaker.
+Volume up key beeps out of speaker
+All audio seems to work with 3.5mm headphones connected
What doesn't work:
-In-call, speaker-call button is grayed out, unavailable
-No in-call audio. They can't hear me, I can't hear them.
-Same problem in-call for bluetooth.
-Music won't play through speaker.
-Music won't play while in car dock.
-Changing ringtones in settings doesn't play the ringtone I select (through speaker)
-When I plug 3.5mm headphones in, I'm sometimes prompted for voice search, and sometimes it automatically begins dialing a recent call.
Take it to a store
I would suggest taking it to a store and show them while being kind. Don't do telephone support because they will probably say "No insurance, no dice." If you catch the tech on their good side I'm sure they will help you out. It may be as simple as a busted contact in the jack. My friend's iPod had a problem like that.

Windows Phone 7 Zune Music problem

Hello,
I have a Windows Phone 7 Tango (Pdaimatejam) 7.8, and I experienced this problem with Mango too (Way too many times).
The problem is, when I have music playing in my pocket (or just through an AUX cable in the car), the music just stops, resumes, stops, resumes, and then stops playing all together. This is so annoying, especially while driving. And sometimes, randomly, "Microsoft Listen" or something comes up, the voice recognition.
Can anyone help me? This is one of the most annoying bugs I've encountered, and it's impossible to use it on a regular basis that way.
Also mentioning, that this problem starts after awhile of listening to music.
i had a problem similiar to this where the volume would goto full blast but it was from the 3.5 jack and i changed aux cables to one that fit better and it stopped

Yeah, but I can't just change my headphones jack or my inbuilt aux cable (It's sort of a stupid hack by Mazda representative)

Make sure you don't sit on the headphone cable... Lol...
Microsoft Tellme? There is only 2 ways to get it : Press and hold the Windows Button / Press and hold the Call button on the handfree headset.

I'm not sitting on the cable, and it came up randomly, while listening to music. Didn't have a call button.

Hard Reset the phone is more like it now... do it, and see if it fix your problem. If not, it is time to call the operator, give them a dispatch and have a new device, lol
It looks like your headset needs replacement. Mine does that to me on my Titan. When the cable is under my coat, it accidentally stops as it's pressed a little by mistake.
Also, the way the jack makes the contact with your phone could be another cause. I had/have but don't use HTC Sensation XL, and it did the same with the beats audio that comes with it. The jack doesn't fit properly. Hence a little angled movement and songs break. Play, pause.
With Windows Phone it's more likely to stop even if your jack is a lil out of the socket since as soon as the headphone is removed, the music stops by default.

Annoying beeping noise while listening over headphones

Hi,
I am listening to more music than I usually do at the moment and my Desire is annoying me: while listening to music (or any other sound: games, system audio etc.)with connected headphones I hear the music, but also a high beeping-cheeping noise. Its beeping at a high frequency and you can hear it all the time (making it that annoying). It doesnt matter whether the phone is charging, the screen is off or the device is on airplane-mode - it beeps all the time! When the sound begins the beeping also does, it then beeps, pauses 2 seconds and beeps again, the beeping sounds like a HDD on very high fequency. I tried >6 ROMs so far and it beeps all the time.
Hope you can help me (I could upload a record of the noise, but how to record it?)

have you tried different headphones?
Yes I have tried different headphones and some of them I am using on my pc without any problems. they can't be the reason for the noise.

It might be the headphone jack. There may be dust inside it. Try cleaning it.
My Desire wasnt able to detect the headphones a month ago, so I brought it to HTC and they fixed it. I dont know if they changed the hole jack and the device is out of warranty now. So I dont want to send it to them again...how to clean the jack? Last time I tried to clean it, the cotton got stuck in it

Bluetooth problem when in car

I have no bluetooth audio function in my car although I can make and receive phone calls via BT. I like to listen to podcasts in my car and use Podcast Addict to do this just using my S9 with the volume high. When I turn on my phone in the car and turn on Podcast Addict the media volume on my phone gets switched off and I have to turn BT off and on to get the sound back on. This is quite irritating but the even stranger thing is that sometimes I get in the car and the sound stays on fine and I just get to play the podcast straightaway. This will go on for a week or so and then it will go back to cutting off the sound for a couple of weeks and so on.
I'm sorry if I,ve not explained this very well - I'm not sure I understand what's happening myself!
