Stuck in Headset mode

Hey,
Was using my trinity yesterday like normal, and all of a sudden a call came through and i answered like normal but had no sound. The other person could not hear me either.
This continued for all calls and all sounds of any kind. Found a thread of a person who had the same problem and he still had use of the phone when the headset was plugged in.
So plugged mine in and sure enough the phone works fine. Its like it is completely stuck in headset mode.
Anyone else experience this or have a solution? Haven't done a hardreset yet but im guessing that is my next option
Thanks,
Mike

I have a similar issue.
No sound at all coming from the phone ear-speaker. But if I turn the phone speaker on during a call it works fine.
I returned my D810 after the touch screen stopped working properly, got it back 3 weeks later and now this has happened. Only had it back one day!

my phone spontaneously started working again.
didnt hard reset, didn't really do anything except use it with the supplied headset for the night. It is physically impossible for those things to fit in a human ear, theyre useless.
Anyways I have no idea what happened or if it is going to happen again . . . .
Cheers

MAJOR sound problem

Hi all,
yesterday, the following parts of my Uni stopped working properly:
- speakers
- phone speaker
- microphone
Not only was there no sound at all coming from the speakers, but when I made a phone call, I couldn't hear the other person and neither did they hear me. The phone was thus rendered pretty much useless. I didn't try it when making calls, but when I turned on music, it played without problems when I plugged in the headphones.
Reseting didn't help so I reflashed the unit.
Everything was fine wor a while, but then the problem occured again.
This time, reseting the device solves the problem, but only for a few minutes - then the sound stops working again. EDIT: oh and now I also discovered that it starts working again at some times for no obvious reason and goes back to not working in a short while *CONFUSED*
Does anyone have an idea what it could be caused by and how to solve it? Many thanks!

I had a similar problem earlier.Try putting ur headphone jack in and out a few times,this generally sorts out the problem.It has to do with a small pin in the headphone socket which diverts the sound to the headset when it is plugged in and the pin has to come back in position when the headset is disconnected.What happens is that the pin gets stuck,so even when u disconnect the headset,it still diverts the sound to headset mode.PM me for more details

try it with bluetooth, if all sounds work fine, then problem is with the receptacle for the headset jack.
Had this problem myself. Took phone apart and repaired.

Thanks, I guess the problem really was in the headset/external switch. It acted like crazy, switching back and forth for no reason, but when I tapped the headphone jack hard with my finger, it usually got ok.
And for the past few hours, the sound worked perfectly, so it hopefully is ok again now. If the problem comes back, I guess I will take it to the service center and get it repaired - I don't think I'd have the courage to do it myself
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help guys.

Speaker phone, volume, headphone jack issue

Whelp today I made a phone call on my turbo, and while on the call pressed the speaker phone button and it didn't work. Didn't think much of it at that moment. Then later did a hangouts call with a friend, and still the speaker phone didn't work. Tried using my ear-buds and they didn't work either. My other pair didn't work as well. Also turning down the volume didn't work for some odd reason. Finally i ended up restarting the phone and everything seemed to be fine again. Anyone have any idea what could have caused this. Anyone else have these issues happen?

It happens when you takeout the headphones slowly or something and the software or hardware thinks they are still inserted hence why speaker doesn't work. Has happened to me twice. It's not a big deal and a restart works fine back to normal.

Ah okay that makes sense. Made me freak out a little at first when it happened. Glad its nothing bad.

Speakerphone turning off at random while on call.

Hello,
I have not seen a thread on this nor has Google searches helped but I have an issue I wanted to post to see if anyone else was having the issue.
I use my phone for work and often have it on speaker phone, out of no where the call goes quite and the person on the other end of the call can not hear me anymore. Upon looking at the phone the speaker phone seems to get disabled and the call goes back to the handset. This happens often when using the speakerphone but certain calls are worse then others.
In one call I had the speaker phone get disabled about 10 times which was close to every 30 seconds or so. This is very very annoying, I have also rebooted the phone. At this time I am not modded and have less then ten apps installed and I am pretty sure none of the apps I installed are causing the issue.
I will note that I do have the phone connected to bluetooth a lot and when the issue happened I tried to disable the bluetooth while on the call but the issue persisted.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

Speaker phone and Bluetooth turning off at random
I am having the exact same problem. But for me this happens with Bluetooth and speakerphone. This is getting really frustrating for me and potentially dangerous when I try to switch back to Bluetooth while driving.
Have you figured out a solution for this yet ?

Anyone have random lock up and restarts with loud beeping sound?

So this has happened maybe 3 times now. I did apply the latest OTA and did a hard reset so everything is fresh. I have had this phone lock up on a few occasions now. Last week I had the hardware keys quit responding. The power button and one of the volume rockers just didn't work. I had to download an app from the play store to get the reboot menu to pop up so I could reboot it. Keys were fine after reboot. The few times it has locked up, the phone makes a loud steady buzzer sound then will reboot and everything is fine. The screen will freeze along with the buzzing sound for maybe 10 seconds before rebooting itself. One time I was playing a game, the other was on an incoming wi-fi call it just locked up both times it played the buzzing sound through the speaker and did reboot itself. Starting to think it may be a hardware problem with maybe the PBA board. Only other thing I can think that might be messing it up, I do use adgaurd as a local VPN on this device.
Anyone else have such issues? I don't want to send it into Samsung just to have them tell me everything is fine if it's a software problem causing it. I have already hard reset so at this point I guess I could try to disable adgaurd to see if that helps. Anyone else have any similar problems with this phone?
