Everytime I plug in my earphones into my Htc desire u and listen to some audio, all i can hear is the music and background noises. There is no voice. It seems to work fine with my beats headphones. The earphones work fine with other devices. Please help. Thanks in advance.

just try to clean the the jack of the phone from dust. I had the same problem. After trying to clean it gently with a thin needle i managed to remove an impressively big ball of dust
The problem was in the phone!
Turns out HTC supports only limited headphones/earphones.
yeah, had same problem with pins inside the 3,5 jack

i have two htc official headphones,
first headphone problem
when i connect the headphones to mobile or laptops etc, there is no sound from speaker of headphones, but sign on laptop and desire hd shows that headphones are connected
second headphone problem
when i connect the headphones to desire hd or laptop. Voice is very low and distorted.there is some kind of noise coming from the speaker.
Any suggestion how to fix the headphone
Jack of laptop and desire hd is fine. I have tried other headphone they are working fine
I guess that the headphones as a bug, it feels that you did all the tests.
i think both are broken
i guess some connector are break
Unfortunately, the headphones are a bit fragile. 2 of mine got issues on their own
It makes more sense to get new ones
can you test it on another device?
Else the keys are wrong, i had it some time too on a costum rom
Check the pin on your earphones for any damage like deep scratches

I have a similar problem: After updating to IceColdSandwich, my original HTC headphones don't work, but Bluetooth Headset is fine.
Anyone know how to fix that?
Same for me... Think its caused by IceColdSandwich... It worked perfectly before on RunnyDroid... Maybe it will be fixed in next Version?!
why do my calls sound different (bad) than music or other audio?
I had the same problem with mine HTC headphones. I just threw them and bought new ones. You could try to get them repaired but I dont think its worth it. You can buy better headphones.
If you call up HTC and give them ur imei they'll send you out a new pair.

Hi all.
I'm running in a strange kind of issue.
My HTC headphone seemed not to work any more. That is, my Sensation (both CM9 and ARHD) recognized it as simple headphone, no microphone.
So I got one extra HTC headphone. No way: they just work as headphones without the microphone.
Then I bought a EUR 10.- "compatible" headphones. They worked fine out of the box under both ARHD and CM9. Those are too crappy and the wire on one of the earpieces just broke.
Now my questions.
1. Do you think I just broke 2 HTC headphones or maybe there's some issue with those custom ROMs?
2. Who can it be that a non-HTC, cheap and crappy headphones can work fine?
3. Any hint?
TIA.

Hi,
My BOSE headphone/microphone works fine on ARHD.
Is there any dust or fluff in the headphone socket.
This will stop the pin going in fully,and not work properly.

I've tried the two headphones on another Sensation and they work.
I've tried to use a vacuum cleaner to pump any fluff out of the socket.
But I still get the same: only headphones, no microphone.
This is happening also with CM9.
What the **** is happening to my phone/headphones?

Have a look at the port for your headphone jack. Does it look like the paint is slightly chipped and you can see the silver underneath? Is so then unfortunately like myself you have the issue of the connection shorting as the jack touches the metal case of the phone. This thread might be of some help.

I fear you can be badly right!
I also get the music player started while listening to the FM Radio.
Yes, it looks like a ghost contact!
I'll try to apply solution no.2 as no.1 is pretty ugly!
Well I use the headphones that came with my old Sensation with my One S now. So in the past few days they were quite iffy...worked for a few seconds and stopped, control buttons stopped working, etc. And now they just stopped working with my phone completely now. However, other headphones work with my phone, and the headphones work with other devices. My solution was to use small headphone thingy (extender I believe?) and they work fine (besides the control buttons not working). So I need some help with finding the issue here.
EDIT: To clarify the question, I'm asking why the headphones work with everything but my device unless I use the extender thing.

This is the thing I used to get them working again. Still can't figure out what the issue was with.

You're not the only one with wired headphone issues. Seems like the one s has a sensitive jack -maybe the contacts are slightly prone to bending. When you use that extension cable not only should the buttons not work but neither should the mic. Does rotating the headphone plug in the jack help at all? If so, you might have a slight bend in the plug.

No, twisting didn't change/do anything.

how many rings are on your headphone plug? if it's not three, then they won't work. i had an issue like that with an aux cable in my car. but when i got one with a mic and three rings, it worked just fine

have you tried one with two rings?

No...I'm not sure if I have any with only two rings.
Sent from my HTC One S using the XDA-Developers app
i'd say try to find one with two rings, or like my aux cable it has three on one end and two on the other. it's strange but works perfectly
I find headphones with mics or controls die within days. I'm using a cheap pair of monoprice in ear buds now and they've lasted for months.

Ok, that information is either lacking context or completely false. Each ring separates the contact areas for functions. Left speaker, right speaker and Mic/controls. If there is only one ring, the sound will be mono, 2 rings is either stereo or mono with a mic, depending on ring locations. Three is stereo with a Mic or stereo with another type of input. The circuit is designed to ground the other channels when they are not separated. If you plug in a 2 ring jack for stereo headphones, the icon in the status bar will show headphones. A three ring jack for stereo with a Mic will show an icon of headset with a Mic on them (like a pilot's). When a channel is unused it gets grounded by the circuit to the common. The spacing for ring locations is standardized. Make sure the headphones are seated correctly.
You can try to play with them to see if the headphones are following the standards by partially inseting them. When not fully inserted, only one speaker will work. My guess is that the headphones are not seating fully and causing issues. Either they are bottoming out before the contacts make full contact, or they are hitting the phone case preventing them from making good contact.

The headphones are seated correctly. Case isn't interfering with anything. Partially inserting did nothing.

My problem is that as of today when I plug my headphones into my phone (I do get the headphone icon at the top) then I go play music or anything and it comes out the built in speaker.
Anyone help me with this, I lightly cleaned the Jack thinking that was the problem but no and the phone sees the headphones.

Hello guys,
My microphone in my sensation XE is not working because the mic port's pins on the motherboard are broken. (long story..). So replacing the microphone will not help, I would need to replace the entire motherboard or to solder tiny tiny pins which I definitely can't do.
However, plugging headset with microphone do the trick, and i'm able to input voice to the phone and talk to people.
My question is, How can I make the phone read only the microphone from the headset. I want to shorten some crappy headset and leave the mic plugged in while I fix it to the back case.
Thank you

So you want to make the headset mic as the default one?
Thats definitely not easy. Maybe possible with an xposed module?? But this doesnt exist so far.

And how about the headset's banana? it have 3 lines of touch point, maybe I can tape all except the mic's touch point?
Or something with build.prop?

No one? K, I'm making a patent: wired microphone for phones, sound output will be the regular speaker.
