[Q] Is it possible to replace the jack plug ? - HTC Sensation

I know there are other thread's related to Jack problems but none answer my question.
You can check the thread's related to jack problems/bug's here or here.
So i have this phone for more than 2 years and yes he has the dust particules problem, the quick heat problem, and now after a couple of days using headphones (never used in 2 years , just now that im running) i only hear from one direction, even if i try to plug any kind of headphones.
My question is , Is it replacable ? I watched some screen replacement videos in Youtube and i always see all the system attached in the jack plug location , more even if i remove the "1st cover" i still cant reach the jack plug so i can try to fix myself the pin that is not giving contact.
If any 1 have a tip i will be completely thankful.
I have tried with air i have tried with contact spray with cotton , tooth stick but no luck , it's just inaccessible because of that metal clip that it's protecting the jack plug.
Thanks in advance.

Hi;
Did you use isolation between headphones and jack, like in the first thread you linked?
Also remove back cover and try connecting them.
Regards.

Yes i used isolation tape , and even without the back cover i only ear from one side of the phones , i try to move around the jack to see if i can catch sound in the right side but no luck at all. Since i dont hace physical access to the jack plug i cant do nothing .

Hi;
If you see there is something inside the jack(like dust and dirt), but you cannot remove it, then it would better to take it to a repair shop and explain to them the problem. Even if you don't see anything stuck, the repair shop is your best bet.

i got a sound problem with my new Asus P535!!

Hi
I got a sound problem with my new ASUS P535, in which the phone is all the time thinking that i'm using the headset even when its unplugged, so no sound can be heard even the headset is unplugged only when somebody calls there is the ring tone, but nor the mike or the phone speaker are working
Any ideas?!?
P.S. I'm using WM6, & I already tried to flash it many times for no results!

Hi,
I had the same problem with my p535, but I found the way to fix it. The problem is that the micro switch was jammed in the headset-port, so to fix the problem; you should just hit hardly the bottom of the PDA onto a table or other hard surface. There is no problem with the software.

I have tried this solution but it didn't work.
Are you sure this is the only way to fix this problem.
Also when i use the device with the headset, the sound of the MP3's are like you listen something under water. And during a call, the opponent's voice sounds so deep, i can hardly hear it.
Than you have a bit bigger problem, the hole port is ****ed, maybe one of the connection is broken or the hole port is moved from where it should be. It just happening with mp3 or with phone as well? if the phone is not working as well with the headset, than you have to bring to service, 'couse the port is broken, if just the mp3 not workin' than I don't have a clue.

It worked for me! Thanks a lot!
I thought my PDA speaker was crapped someway..
Anyway, I did not hit it, just plugging in and out the mini jack connector several times within a short time.

Sound problem again (mini jack connector replacement)
Hello again!
My P535 made a long way since the prevoius sound problem.
My device's mini jack connector has been damaged, and I wish to replace it with a new one.
Could anyone help me how to replace the mini jack connector? Unfortunatelly the oroginal connector was so badly damaged that it cannot be used anymore.
My device cannot play sound and cannot record any voice, but the speaker and microphone is fully intact though. I have to repair it but I don't know what type of mini jack connector I need. I heared that if I use some incompatible connector that could damage the device for good.
I'd also find out that two wire must contact to allow the internal speaker and mike to function, for now, the device "thinks" a jack cable is plugged.
Sorry for my bad english..
Could anyone help?
Regards,
Xel
well, I have a bluetooth ad2p stereo headset (platrinocs), but the akkumulator got busted so I'm in a hurry to repair my phone's analog mini jack output, that will will solve the speaker and mike problem too.
/hovewer, the wireless bluetooth headsets has a serious disadvantage
It cannot connect automaticly to the bluetooth headset when a phone call is incoming, or when you enter proximity whith the headset or with the device (if you left either on desk). i've tried patches and apps to make autoconnect available, but no luck.. analog output is much more advance then bluetooth high quality audio for one reason the hardware eq and software mixers/
the main problem, is that the old mini jack output is damaged to dust, i cannot recognize it which type to replace. googling the specs of the device did not helped me identifying the mini jack connector. I've learned that there are many types, some of them are used to headset functions different at model types, even differs at manufacturers.
Please, anyone could help I would greatly appriciate it!
bye,
Xel

check mini jack output, plug in and move a bit carefully the mini jack cable in output.
probably some air duster or contact spray could help too.

[Q] Headphone Port Not Working Properly

So, recently, I've been having problems with my headphone jack. Issue is that the audio is all distorted and it sounds like some very bad surround sound setup. I've already tried switching roms and using different headphones. The problem is probably in the Jack itself. If I hold my headphone jack at the correct position with the right amount of pressure on it, the music comes out as it should. I've also tried blowing it out, still noting. What do you guys think I should do? I've seen some links on ebay for headphone jacks going around 20 dollars. I don't even know if it's worth it to repair my G2X as it also has a cracked digitizer.

if it's pressure related (and I don't know if it's possible), but have you checked the solder-joints where the jack is mounted to the pcb?

Or clean the Jack with some compressed air.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I did try cleaning the jack with Compressed air already and nothing changed. I'm going to guess it's something wrong with the solder joins. I ordered a new Headphone Jack and power button combination and also a new digitizer from eBay. Hopefully, they'll arrive and I can replace that part. Thank god the Headphone port isn't mounted to the motherboard of this phone! Atleast LG knows how to build a phone well (Except for the screen bleeding)

Cracked jack

Good day. On my lg p925 jack is broke. Plays only one side of the headphones but when you give it to the correct position - so sometimes both headphones work but it is very laborious. Is there any change to fix it? or need to replace the whole jack? it can be? how much would it cost? I tried to clean the jack but I did not see inside so I do not know if there's anything to mislead but I think that there is something broken inside

you probably have to get it changed completely nd not sure about the price different places ask for different prices
I have the same problem. It's not working because the end of jack (left headphone signal) does not touch the end of the socket. You can apply a tiny drop of tin on the end of headphones' jack (do it very carefully!), it works for me but the sound is not 100% clear.
2nd option: (just theory, I did not tried it): the bottom connector at the end of the socket can slightly bend up and down. You can disassemble the phone, open the socket and put something between the connector and socket's end, so the connector will touch the end of jack.
my jack is very loose and headphones fall
The jack is 3-5 dollars on eBay.
Buy it and open it up. Unplug the connectors. Remove the sim board. Now remove the exposed connectors. Remove the logic board. There you go , headphone jack is exposed. Now remove the old one , it is held in place by a double sided tape. Plug in the new one And close up. About as easy as peeing blindfolded...

Another option is to use a bluetooth stereo headset you would have to charge it everyday but if your not comfortable opening your phone up your could go this route.
sony makes a nice one and philips also I cant post links yet. just search stereo bluetooth headset on amazon.
I have that issue that when I slightly move the jack plug, my phone recognises it as pushing buttons on my headphones, so the player turns off a song or plays next etc.. It's really annoying, because I can't listen to the music when I got phone in my pocket. Do You have an idea how to fix it? I know I can disable the option :listen to headphones buttons" but I want to have it working like in the past.
I had the loose problem that they falled off and headphone acted as buttons too..But I found kinda solution..I never did put the headphones correctly in.. If you look at your phone you shouldnt see the connector. And It should make a click sound when putting in jack.

Ear phones don't stay in

Hi all.
I use a generic pair of noise-reduction ear phones on my Sony Xperia E3. The earphones are Betron B-25.
They fit into the socket and I can listen, however they don't STAY in the socket. There is no fit, no lock, they easily slip back out. If I'm walking out in the street, the only way to listen is to hold the phone in my hand, to ensure the earphones don't slip out, which happens when I put the phone in my pocket.
Why is this? Do I need to specifically buy Sony earphones? Or just other earphones? Anyone experienced this? I get the feeling other people use non-Sony earphones with no problem.
Help?
Cheers,
Ferdi

Jack issue

Hi guys,
I recently started having problems with my jack port. It does get recognized by the headphones and i am able to play music normally. The problem is a that when i plug in my headphone, if i move them, one of the channels gets cutoff.
Has anyone encountered this issue?
Thanks,
Matei
Try a different set of headphones, could be split/broken wires in the cord.
Nope, the headphones are ok.
Hey fookea, yes I've had this issue. However, mine is so bad that I cannot plug anything into it without major static and crackling noises coming through, if I get sound at all.
From what I've gathered, our headphone jack needs to be protected because it gets dirty very easily. Moreover, this problem is not uncommon for the Z3 and if you send it off, or take it to a Sony repair shop, they'll fix it at no charge.
You can also try taking a Q-tip and pulling some of the cotton from the end. Dampen the end with a small amount of rubbing alcohol and try cleaning the jack out. If this doesn't work, you'll have to have it repaired.
I'd advise getting a case that protects the headphone jack, like the Ringke Fusion (it's what I have). I regret purposely breaking the headphone jack protector off the case after getting it because I don't think I'd have the issue I do now.
Good luck!
Thanks man! Will try this at home
