Headphone problems - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

So recently I was on the cm10.2 nightly when my speaker stopped working(including the earpiece). It took me about a day to figure it out, but it turns out my phone thought the headphones were always plugged in. Did a factory reset didn't help. Cleaned the jack out didn't do anything either. Thought it might be the cm10.2 nightlies. Switched to a sense Rom and now my speakers work but my headphones don't. It continues to play from the speaker even when I plug my headphones in. I can temporarily fix it with the soundabout app but that is quite annoying to use and change the settings all the time. Could it be the firmware? Should I run the ruu again?

If you're s-off running an RUU wouldn't be a bad idea.

I had a similar problem while running Viper 4.0. I clean installed Viper again, and had the she problem. I RUU'd back to 3.18 and installed CM10.1.3 RC2, and everything is back to normal.

Looks like I'll have to ruu again. Thanks for the help!

Well, no luck for me. I guess my jack is starting to go. I'm having the same problem on CM10.1.3. If it matters, I did update my firmware when I installed Viper 4.0.

Any luck? SoundAbout has helped me at least listen to music and make calls. I did find this:

I might try tomorrow. I'll keep you posted if graphite really does the trick.

Graphite works! Scary, but my jack functions normally now.

Headphone jack stopped working?

Has anyone else found that their headphone jack has randomly stopped working? I'm on the CM10 ROM, but I'm not sure that it makes a difference.
Then go back to stock and try that....

That happens to me when I have my tpu case on... The spacing for the jack doesn't have enough slack.

I've had 2 scares...all caused by failing headphones. This jack seems very sensitive to any electrical flaw in cheap headphones.
Cm10 for me has had issues with the headphones. I'm on aokp cm10 and the headphones are almost fixed. Still have an issue if I reboot with the headphones connected. Jb ROMs are still quite new for our phone. It hasn't even been officially released for our phone and the work that the developers have been doing is phenomenal. Gibe it some time and we'll be really stable.

Just had it happen to a nephew on a Vivid, told him to do a hard reset and the Jack came back to life.
HTC One S TmoUS
Never any issues on mine. Sense 4.1. I got an expensive pair of Beats that give a nice click and stick in very well. God FORBID my Katy Perry gets played out loud through my external!
I now have this issue with Baked Blackbean ROM after installing the AC!D Audio. I haven't used my jack in a long time cause I normally use bluetooth so I'm not sure when and how this issue happened. I guess I will wait til the next update and check it after a clean flash.
***EDIT***
Here is a headphone fix I found for Baked Blackbean 7
Try SoundAbout on Google Play, others have said this fixes the problem...

Don't forget to set lpa.decode to 'false' in the build.prop if it's not already.

maybe your battery it is not in a good condition
or it is not fit properly with the connectors
check it
maybe the kernel? the kernel can do this

sometimes yes
you can flash other one
I had this problem. It turned out to be the battery (I bought an Anker), but I managed to fix it by putting a piece of paper between the phone and the battery so it gets pushed against the connectors.
ok. ill try to put paper and see if it works. i presume its battery since i allready flashed another kernel

Back button in browser does not always work

I'm having an issue with the back hardware key while using the stock internet browser. Sometimes, the button brings me back to the page I was on previously, but other times it just reloads the current page. This gets frustrating, as to go back ill have to hit the back button 10-15 X at times. Also, hitting "back" under the menu produces the same effect.
I know some websites have some way of directing you back to their page when you try to go back, as I've experienced this in my desktop. But this seems to be happening at random. I suppose I can't say for sure that it's the browser and my the website though. I've noticed this on the stock att rom, venom, and now infobar. Has anyone else experienced this?
I would try some different browsers, but it's nice having the stock browser log into my Gmail immediately and retrieve my bookmarks after flashing a new rom...

Have you tried using zram in the kernel? (ElementalX kernel) It has helped me with the "reloading" problem.

It's not a reloading problem, it is a problem of trying to go back one page.

Bump? This is bugging the hell out of me. Running the latest viper with bulletproof v2. I haven't messed around with zram...didn't work so hot when I had it while running elemental.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Short of downloading dolphin browser or some other that you may prefer, there is really no fix. The browser is closing the windows behind you as you leave them. You might try a clean install and stock or vanilla kernel. Bulletproof gave me a few issues when I tried it.

I notice this too. My best advice would be a third party browser. Use Chrome perhaps? I like the stock browser. I just got into the habit of bringing up history and jumping back that way. It also reduces the amount of time and data wasted on pressing back through several pages.

A part of touchscreen not working.

Hi Guys, I did S-off already, and downgraded my touchscreen's firmware. And i installed 3.18 ruu for install New roms. But now, in ALL roms, i have a issue in touchscreen.

Hate to say it but most likely a hardware issue.
You can RUU to confirm. If it's still occuring after RUU, it's definately the Digitizer failing. Thought I am already fairly certain that it is the digitizer failing.

I dont sure if it is a hardware issue. EVERYTHING is great when i didnt have this Problem. I think this is about touchscreen's firmware or RUU.

HIGHLY doubtfull.
Like I said, run an RUU for your carrier, if it works after then good. If not, it's hardware 100% sure.
An RUU will return ALL software to stock including any and all firmwares.
Go to the phone dialer then enter *#*#3424#*#* then MORE and line test with no time. Try to draw on the screen... If you do not get anything on that part the digi is damaged... This just happened to me. I'm not sure if I should order another screen because I already replaced my screen 2 months ago. I'm thinking to get a new phone. Hope this help!

Did you RUU back already? Mine was like that too... Working in the morning and it stopped in the afternoon. I had the phone in my pocket the whole day while I was doing the lawn... Maybe too much heat broke it. Try RUU back to check if that works. If not you can find the screen set (lcd and digitalizer) for 55$+
This is mine... What I do I have screen rotation enable and when I cannot tap on something I rotate the screen.

No Sound!!!!

Hello people,
I just noticed yesterday that my DS has no sound at all although the sound settings are correct!
You can make and receive calls surf the net use the apps and everything but with no sound.
If you connect the hands free you hear music and all the sounds of the phone but if you disconect then it goes mute again.
Any ideas?
What rom are you running?

No I havent and I d like to avoid one.....
Is there another solution you can think of?
Are you rooted? You could try replacing the sound driver files. But I would first try a hard reset. Or maybe your speaker has suddenly packed up

No I aint rooted and I am against hard reset (too many things to back up).
I remember this happening again a couple of years ago but it came back to its senses when I plugged the handsfree on.
Having my ONE X on service I ve been using my old DS for music quite a lot with the handsfree so I think that has something to do with the problem.I am almost sure that the phone somehow thinks its on hands free thats why no sound is heard....
What if while playing music with hands free in, then unplug it
