Completely disable audio jack media output - General Questions and Answers

I bought 3.5 dust plug jack. And I'm using it's buttons. But android is considering it as a headphone and always routing the audio to it not the phone speakers nor the Bluetooth. I need to completely disable it as a media output. My phone is rooted and ready for any solution.

[Q] Headphone jack is reversed

When I plug in the headphones it sends the sound to the external speakers while if I disconnect the headphones I get no sound at all. If I reboot and leave the headphones in it routes the sound to the external speakers and the headphones.
Any suggestions? Software or hardware solutions?
Also is there anywhere you can order replacement part for our tablet?

[Q] Phone audio through Docking stations

Ok is this a hardware problem or software problem?
The music plays though the USB audio port on the Docking stations (both Car and Desk), but the Phone audio does not.
If this is a software problem, is there any chance someone could enable the phone audio out the Docking station audio jack.
If this is a hardware problem, I'm thinking I might as well return the Car Dock, as that was one of the main reasons for having it. It connects the power and audio with one easy click, but if I have to connect to the headphone jack to get the phone audio to play through car speakers, it's not worth the hassle.

[Q] How to enable Audio output via 2.5mm jack and Bluetooth

Hi All,
After much searching for this simple request, how to enable Audio output to the headphone / 2.5mm audio jack and output to bluetooth speakers at the same time.
This is not a request how to get music to play on bluetooth mono headphones etc.
I am wanting to have my Nexus 5 plugged into the speakers and amp in one room, then also have my UE Boom in the next room playing audio via bluetooth.
As soon as I plug in the speakers via the jack, the bluetooth sound output is muted.
Going into Bluetooth settings and unticking music and then ticking music starts audio playing via bluetooth but stops audio via 2.5mm jack.
Any settings I need to know about? Apps or custom ROMs to do this simple feature.
Think of this as a keep playing to speakers when headphones are plugged in. Possible in Ubuntu, is it possible on Android?
Many Thanks,
Rob.

Just to bump the thread, as I know how fast paced the Nexus 5 forum is, and I have waited 10 days before re-asking.
Anyone with information that could help?
Many Thanks,

3.5 Audio Jack for Mic Boost

Hi,
I have the following question, most (maybe all) smartphones have a 3.5mm audio jack which also allows headphones with a mic (included with some phones) since it has TRRS.
What i want is a way to connect a normal mic which is TRS (i has have a TRS->TRRS adapter) to that 3.5 audio jack in order to increase the mic volume in my phone, one main reason is when my phone is connected via bluetooth to some speakers like in the car, it will automatically decrease the mic volume.
Any suggestions?
Anyone?
This is really annoying as bluetooth lowers mic volume to almost noting...
I have discovered that mixer_paths.xml file might help in boosting the mic on bluetooth and that it also might a cyanogenmod bug...
Is anyone familiar with the values in this file and what they mean?

So is there a way to have audio simultaneously on Bluetooth and Stereo plug ?

Hi all.
So I want to have audio output to both, simultaneously, to a remote Bluetooth-receiver (which is on the other side of my bedroom's wall) and to a stereo 3.5mm connection next to my phone.
Right now, I can have audio to one, but not both (Bluetooh, OR, 3.5mm).
After much searching, I am 50% happy using the app Turbo Alarm because it can play audio simultanously to my Bluetooth receiver and the phone's loud Speaker, but NOT to the phone's 3.5mm plug (silent).
Any thing you know that can do the trick ?
Thank you all.

The hardware in your device is designed to only output audio one way or the other, not two or three. It's a limitation built into the hardware, you aren't gonna change it.
There is, however, a solution to your problem, it involves external hardware.
You will need a 3.5mm Y cable and a Bluetooth audio transmitter, plug the cable in your 3.5mm audio jack, connect whatever device you were gonna run via audio jack to one side of the Y cable, connect the Bluetooth audio transmitter to the other side of the Y cable.
This will allow playing audio to both but it won't allow them to listen to different media, they will hear both receive the same audio.
If you want the listening devices to be able to play different audio independently, then you'll have to consider other hardware such as wireless flash drive, it can stream audio to up to 8 devices and stream video to 3 devices, each of them watching or listening to different things independently of each other.
