Hello,
A few days ago my earphones were working fine in my lenovo P2 but then one day it started to produce muffled sound.
I pulled the headphone jack up a little bit and after some twists only the right side was producing normal music. The headphones are working fine in computer and tried some other headphones also but the problem persists. I even tried the headphones that came with the phone but they are also having the same issue. The strange thing is that my other headphone Sennheiser HD 203 (I think it is one ring jack while the other headphones are 4 ringed) is working fine in it. What could be the issue.
Thanks
I also had the muffuling issue.
I had the issue from the stock ROM only, then went to Oreo but it was still their thou my fix was simple.
I flashed the lineage os 7.1.2 provided by @Wonder Wicked Witch and the problem is gone....do try this BTW everything is working on the ROM.
So do try it.I am currently using it.
I suggest a Hardware caused problem.
Check for collections of dust, hair and other debris that got stuck in the headphone jack. Use pliers to get it out.
Because "normal" headphones work fine and ones that go deeper in (with mic or controls ) don't, I really suggest you check that, because all the dust gets stuffed in to the end of the port, so jacks that aren't as long won't have any issue.

Hi. I have a audio problem in my Lenovo p2. The audio is very bad when using a normal earphones, but when I use an Universal earphones like Ubon etc etc., it has the setting in it which makes the audio good. The big problem is that I cannot use any other normal earphones instead I have to use universal earphones like UBON universal earphones. Please help me out with this. I have tried factory reset also many times, the issues is still the same.

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!
This is a strange problem i am facing
it started unexpectedly
the problem over here is that my phone is not able to recognize between earphones and speaker after connecting earphones
dont know whats the problem over here is
the earphones would work at first and then all of a sudden it stops to recognize it
this happened with two of my earphones (no earphone problem cause they work with other phones
is anybody else experiencing this problems?
after trying to figure out what is happening i opened up audio fx to see if its creating problems and this is what i saw
as u can see in the video above the phone is not connected to any earpiece
at 0.02 i connect the earphones and for just a second it recognizes the earphone and then keeps switching between headset and speaker mode
then the video contains various attempts of connecting earphones and getting the same result
Heres a logcat https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B--cxicb-CQGS2J1blVmUnVkNGM&authuser=0
(sorry cannot paste to pastebin ,since it exceeds max size limit)
Device:-XT1033
ROM:-AICP (happened with diff roms in the past too)
kernel:-hurtsky(again happened with another diff kernel in the past)

hmmm, ok,
Are they "simple" earphones ==> ones that doesn't have any call/music/volume triggers
Did you tried with the AUX-IN of a HiFi installation (with a jack-audio cable plugged to the AUX-IN of it)
Did you tried Apple vs non-apple earphones (the ground and microphones rings on the jack are usually reversed)
What i know about jack port is only that impedance is important for phones : that's the way the earphones are detected and how the triggers work when there are some.
At first read i have no idea about your problem, but it might be a dirty port OR an issue with the controller
You may read the following, and try to play with it:

1>No they are not simple earphones
2>no never tried using AUX-IN on moto g
3>No,no apple earphones were connected to it
the earphones that i used here was from samsung and karbonn(a local brand,that is)
these two earphones used to work with my phone but all of a sudden it stopped!!
inserting them sometimes gives a repeated sound of distortion(cant explain that ....but theres some noise)
Im having the same problem! It's definitely a phone issue... Thing is, I used it with my hudl brand aux cable and that works just fine with the phone but my headphones won't? (I don't know if this inf helps or hinders but I figured it might be important)

So apparently it works better with two-ring headphones, ones that don't have any play/pause buttons or microphones built in? Turns out my headphones have 3 rings on the jack. So apparently, i just have to buy a whole new pair of headphones that only have 2 rings but I don't see why I should spend anymore money just because Motorola ****ed up?

Headphone jack distorts sound on headphones and aux cables, if the volume is halfway its just ok, turn it up and it distorts quite bad and only plays sound on 1 side, software or hardware fault?
Checked for dirt but its fine, tried different earphones and aux leads with the same outcome
Edit:
Not rooted & ended up buying some bluetooth earphones, just need a fix for the aux in the car now, possibly thinking it maybe software related unsure if I should root just yet?
Same exact problem any soloution

Hi! First, we need to determine whether the problem is software or hardware related. An easy way to do this would be to "factory-reset" the device. If doing so, doesn't change the situation and the sound still distorts, you could try flashing a new firmware and see if that helps.
If all of the above fails, it's most certainly a hardware issue and needs to be sent in either for repair or replacement.
Cheers and happy 2018!
Dude this was like way over a year ago ? I've been through 5 other phones since then, thanks though?
Hi,
I have a problem with my Z5. For a while now I've been thinking that there's a hardware issue with my jack socket since there was absolutely no audio coming out of my headphones or speakers via the jack-jack cable. But then I've read about SoundAbout and forced the phone to stream the audio through the cable - it worked like a charm. The only problem is when I disconnect the headphones from my phone, there will be no sound on my speaker and therefore I will have to switch those modes manually every time, which is quite annoying. Besides, it should be done my Smart Connect if I'm correct...
So the question is how on earth can I get Smart Connect back to work? I've tried installing different ROMs, disabling Smart Connect, updating it, clearing data and cache - nothing works :|
Hi Ziemny,
Are you on UB? You may need to flash it back to stock rom to verify your jack functionality.
Currently i also got same issues like yours even using stock one. Found out that i damaged the jack's flex cable as it was always pushed against the headphone connector on my jeans pocket.
Just bought a replacement jack and watertight stickers on Aliexpress and install it. Now everything now works as normal.
I also faced the same problem in mm and now on noughat also so i prety much sure that it's a hardware problem...

Using SoundAbout helped me find out it is not a hardware problem. Everytime I switch media streaming to jack, it works but it has to be forced by the app. I want to automatize the process, as it should work automatically in the first place.
Still found no way of switching sound profiles automatically :/
I've tried 3 different headphones and the phone never detects anything being plugged into it. It wasn't exposed to any liquids and I've used compressed air to blow out lint. Speakers and bluetooth audio works just fine. Anyway other way to test if the port is working besides plugging in headphones?
EDIT: Soooo it looks like my headphone port isn't broken... I found some app that allows me to re-route my audio and its working perfectly fine. Seems like a software problem to me, anyway to reflash S8+ stock roms on the SD835?
Hi~ Could you please kindly share the app you used to re-route the audio? I got the same problem here. Thank you very much!
