Is it who had a problem with the audio jack. I bought the phone a week ago and now has begun to come to the association problems?

If you are using the ear phones that came with the phone, thats the problem. They are absolutely terrible. Try another pair and see if it works any better

I've tried different headphones and the problem will not disappear if even the slightest move the headphone jack side the phone starts to use the loudspeaker or the music stops. Apparently, the connector is broken

Are you sure the connector was inserted all the way? Try pushing it in harder.

Same exact problem here, headphone jack is problematic, have to wiggle my headphone while inserting to hear audio (takes me several tries until i finally can hear audio), and microphone completely does NOT work
Have tried stock headphones and iPhone headset, same problem, i have to wiggle until i hear audio, mic completely doesn't work.
I am convinced it is indeed the Audio jack, because both of my headsets work perfectly in other phones and gadgets, both audio and mic.
My phone stock kernel and have never update it (refuse to update without change-log) doubt update will fix anything, i believe it's a hardware problem.
For now Bluetooth is my alternative for headset.
If anyone knows where they sell replacement audio jack, plz post a link.
Could well be a dry joint on the socket to PCB. Take in for a repair better still a replacement hand set..

My roomate has a verizon phone that he's hooked up to his car to listen to pandora/make phone calls via auxiliary cable to his car. Sounds great so I decided to give it a try.
I have tried 5+ auxiliary cables, even ones with built in mics. The person on the other end of the phone hears an annoying echo and makes phone calls unbearable, help?
I also tried it on my girlfriends fascinate, same problem.
How loud do you have the radio? I do this all the time with no issues

Just loud enough to hear without trouble. Just so were on the same page, this is simply connecting your phone to your cd deck to hear the other person talking through your car speakers. I've tried it with both my epic and my girlfriends fascinate using many cables on three different cars with same results. :\
Have you tried connecting to other cd decks?

Your phone's microphone goes into speaker phone mode when external speakers are connected (i.e. your car stereo), and at the same time the audio is coming out of multiple, larger speakers whereas it would normally come out of one much smaller speaker. The software will still use the same noise cancellation algorithm regardless, so it probably can't filter out the stereo as well because it is tuned for the built-in speaker. Maybe there is an app for that?

You are correct but the microphone is only enabled when using had phones with a microphone. I've used my phone numerous times connected to the car threw the aux port with out no issues.

Yes, I've tried it on three different cars. Both my epic, and my girlfriends fascinate have the annoying echo. I even tried it in my friends car, where his works fine.
Know what the issue might be?

My problem is that when i try to connect my phone to my stereo the screen starts messing up. Everything looks fine but the screen doesnt register any of my finger strokes. Ive tried two different rca to headphone jack cables could it be my phone or my stereo perhaps. I just got my phone everything is stock.

1.- Test if a headphone produce same problem
2.- Test same cable with other stereo
Sounds like its shorting. Be careful ya could fry your phone.

OK so I work as a dish network technician. Sometimes I hook up my headphones to my glacier to listen to some music and run it through my shirt so as for them to not get pulled while working on the ladder and all that. What do you guys think would be the best an easiest way toblisten to my music? How I'm doing it or are there any wireless solutions.. any help is a appreciated.

Assuming you mean access to the music media and not e.g. wireless headphones, if in the USA, try Google Music and mark songs for offline while you're on WiFi, so it won't use up data. Otherwise, I woukd suggest a large memory card.

There is this one Bluetooth+ wireless headphones, at radioshack. I wanna say by Samsung, really nice set. The headphones plug into the Bluetooth, then the headset clips on to your shirt. The earbuds are really strong too,I used them at my work for a while, very nice sound. The price I wanna say is around 60-80, can't remember.

I have to vote for Bluetooth headphones as well. I've tried two pairs: Motorola S9s, and Rocketfish RF-MAB2. The S9s were not worth what I paid for them. The sound quality was ok at best, the earbuds uncomfortable, and the battery life was not great. Their top selling point (for me, anyways) was that they were sweatproof. As I run and work out a lot, I was really looking forward to no more tangles. Turns out, they are not sweatproof. After about 3 weeks of workouts, they crapped out. The controls became unresponsive; I couldn't even get the power button working to turn them off. And I lost my receipt, so there went any replacement.
Did some research and took a shot at the Rocketfish RF-MAB2s. They are absolutely fantastic and better than the S9s in every aspect. Much more comfortable, the sound quality is fantastic, and the battery life is pretty much as advertised. The only drawback is that they are not specifically advertised as being sweatproof. However, I've been using them for over 3 months with no problems whatsoever. As a precaution, I wipe them whenever I feel they might start getting wet, and I bought a few of these covers to make sure sweat doesn't get into the charging port.
Bluetooth works great for me. Search Ebay and you can find a bunch. make sure it's the ones that can transfer media (music), not the ones that are used for calls.
Awesome thanks guys will try some out and let you guys know which ones worked great...I doubt here is but there wouldn't be like just a one eared headphone so I an just listen to music in one ear would there??

Personally, I use the Jabra BT-3030 dogtag adapter. It let's you use the headphones of your choice. I do the same thing with tucking the wires under my shirt. The device is great, streams music and takes calls. There is a Mic built into the top of the device. it has all the music controls and they work as expected, has its own independent volume control too. You can even use it as a remote control if you plug another cord into the phone's jack. Pretty cool if you hook up to a stereo and feel like being lazy.
I prefer in ear buds, so this was the best solution for me. You can find it for $20-30 online.

I used to have an eBay Bluetooth headset that played music through the speaker when connected to my computer, but not on my phone. I think in order for your phone to play music through it, it has to recognize it as a media receiver and most single earpiece sets will only receive call audio.
Hi,
My samsung provided headphone controls are not working. But I can use it as a headphone, thats about it. Is there a way I can debug if its s/w or h/w problem.
I tried an N8 headset and that didnt work either, but I was not sure if it supposed to or not.
i had same probs with bt headsets and the problem was the stock music apk. installed winamp and everything works. try

It is not just with music. Mic does not work as well, so can't use the headset for voice calls

I had the same problem with the Mic on my Samsung headset. Earphones worked fine, but the Mic sounded like there was a short in the wire. I know it sucks, but just bite the bullet and buy a new pair.

I guess I have to buy another set. disappointing to see such low quality standards from Samsung.
Any recommendations for headsets which work well with Android?

Ok so I've got a pair of Dre Beats Solo headphones with the monster control talk (hands free kit) cable.
Hands free mic and play/pause switch work fine with HTC phones, but on my Nexus 4 I get no response. I can't answer calls through the cable buttons either. If I do manually answer a phone call with them connected, I can hear the call through the headphones but I cannot reply through the mic in the cable, nor the mic in the phone so I have to disconnect. Anyone had this issue or knows how to resolve it?
Maybe my phones headphone socket/hands free mic connection is faulty? I doubt this because I tried them through my sisters Nexus 5 and had the same outcome.
Please let me know guys. Cheers.

Take them in to where you got them maybe they could help? On my Beats Tour headphones w/ Monster switch thing play and pause work. I don't use calling often though so I can't test that..
The Nexus 4 lacks the hardware for your hands free control. HTC and Apple products have the hardware, mostly because they have somewhat of a partnership with beats (as does HP).

Hmmm yeah I guess it is the hardware. How lame! So if I want to use a wired hands free kit I'll have to get the official nexus one, or even break the bank and get a Bluetooth one? I think I'll carry on living with the minor inconvenience lol, unless anyone could point me to an awesome product that would solve my issue?
Thanks for your replies guys.
