The headphone jack of my JAMIN is very loose and the JAMIN
device "thinks " that the headphones are still inserted on the device even when its not...This disables all speaker and all sounds coming out of JAMIN
When I plag in the headphone I can hear all sounds!
When the headphones are not connected, the device continues to be in a mode like when the headphones are connected, thus SO SOUND at ALL.
Is there a way to disable the headphone jack for good !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there a way to fix it .......HELLLLLPPPP me i am going crazy !!!

Hi,
I have connected my KJam to my car stereo via a cable from the 2.5mm jack to the aux port of my car stereo. Tom Tom voice and phone calls are routed through my car stereo. Sometimes, the microphone will not work when I take a call. I can hear the caller perfectly but they can't hear me. Other times, the phone functionality works perfectly and we can both hear each other great.
If anyone can suggest any ideas, I would be very grateful.
Thanks
if your using a jack to connect it to your car, then its will prob. stop the mic working as its routing the audio to you car in the same way the headset with mic that you got with the k-jam does. I had this problem on mine, but due to the fact that i use a bluetooth neadset in the car fixed that little problem 8)
That's the end of my k-jam desires then.
I use my MDA compact in the same way you describe, for TomTom, Hands free calling and to play my music through.... and my microphone works fine with the headphone jack in.
I guess one thing to check would be the number of rings on your 2.5mm jack. If you have 3 then theres a possibility the k-jam thinks you have a mic on the end of the wire. If you have 2 rings (normal stereo headphones) then there must be another issue somewhere.
thanks for your replies. My concern was around the fact that sometimes the microphone works and sometimes not. I wonder if there is a workaround or a specific type of cable that I need to ensure that only the audio is routed and not the mic as well.
Thanks for all your help.l
never tried this myself, so i can only assume it would work. you could hack a cheap wired headset up, removing the earpieces but leaving the microphone. then add a stereo 3.5 plug so you can hook it up to your car stereo.

I have that very problem also, it's gotten that annoying that i've stopped using it through my stereo. you are able to get around it by popping the cable out of the kjam, then putting it back in.
pain in the ass though none the less.
What is the phone is set to Speakerphone ?
Even though Speakerphone is currently not working...
Hey all,
Just wondering if anyone has had any success in fixing this problem? I am having the same issue. I have a 2 ring 2.5-3.5mm adapter connected (so it should only be routing the audio, not the mic) and sometimes the caller can hear me, sometimes not. At one stage I found by unplugging the cable, setting to speakerphone, then unsetting speakerphone and plugging the cable back in would get it to work, but not anymore...
Any ideas?!?! I love my XDAII mini but this is driving me up the wall!
Cheers,

is there any way to enable build-in microphone while using 2.5mm audio jack connected to car's stereo?any registry edit?Thanks in advance!
I think that the insertion of a jack into the socket operates a hardware switch so I don't think there can be any software tweaks. It is the same as plugging headphones in to a radio etc. the insertion of the jack breaks the connection to the speakers and diverts the output to the headphones.
I got a 2.5mm 4pole male to 3.5mm 3pole female adapter with built in mic and volume control off ebay for less than £5. A cheap 3.5mm patch lead to car stereo later and it works perfectly, other than a slight alternator induced whine is audiable when charging. This is more likely to be from my cheap car charger as it goes when not charging. I like the way MP3s etc get muted when a call comes in. TomTom, Mortplayer and phone calls all at the same time, I love my Wizard.
Guess u didn’t try it. I have my wizard attached with the car stereo and when I get a call i can receive it and talk, the mic gets activated auto. Works perfect for me. Give it a try should work for u.
didn't try what?how does your mic work?
Well I use a 2.5 to 3.5 mm converter which in connected via RC wire to the car stereo linein, when I get a call I just receive it and I can talk. The music stops I can hear the person call and can talk back, the microphone works perfect.
with mine 2.5->3.5 mm jack(done it myself, the 2.5mm jack has 3 poles, not 4) can only hear but the other person doesn,t hear me
my jack has 3 poles, bougth it from ebay some time back, works perfect for me
i have a i-mate jam, which i use as mp3 player and it has been working ok but now the sound from the headphones is only coming out the right headphone, i replaced the headphones but still have the problem, i have check the scoket and it seems to be conectiong with the plug propley.
is it possiable that a setting has been changed and turn output from stero into mono
thanks,
craig
i tried adding a mono to stero adapter in the headphone scoket and they sound went completly,
i think one of the connector inside your headphone jack is broken... i experience also that problem when the right side of my earphone is not workin, i dissamble my unit and i found that the connector is broken so i mold it with soldering iron and led..... this usually happen when you put your phone on your pocket and upon sitting the headphone jack looses to the other side...
Bluetooth A2DP
Good day
Why don't you go bluetooth A2DP works good.
Is there any way to get the speaker phone active when 3.5mm audio jack is connected? I use an FMtransmitter connected to the 3.5mm to get the sound out in my car speakers, works fine with music and tomtom sound... but when i get a phone call i would like to answer with speaker phone preferable with the sound still from my car speakers, but with the phone mic activated.
It seams like the phone mic is deactivated when 3.5mm is connected.

I don't know the answer to that specific question, but...
I have a very similar set up to you (though the 3.5mm jack runs directly to my car stereo), using PocketMusic and TomTom.
The in-built mic is active in this case - If I get an incoming call, or make an outgoing call, the audio out is routed through my car stereo (i.e. I hear the other person over the car speakers). The mic still picks up my voice and I can have a conversion. I'm using a regular 3.5mm->double RCA lead (i.e. there is no mic present on the audio jack).
My phone's earphone jack has probably been screwed.
It always shows earphone icon, even though earphone isn't connected it detects earphone and doesn't play sounds from the main speaker.
