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?

I just purchased a new stereo for my car, a Sony mex-bt2800. I paired my phone to the deck no problem, but the audio stream seems to keep getting interupted for a second or two at random. Is anyone else having similar issues streaming to a2dp devices? I don't have any other a2dp devices to pair the phone to, so I don't know if it's a problem with the phone or the deck.
Edit: New problem, see my last post.
This happened to me before. For my phone it turned out to be a battery widget. Weird.
Edit: I have a similar setup. Sony MEX-3700U.

I've got no idea how to fix this issue, but yes, I get the same problem. I've noticed that A2DP sounds like garbage with this phone. My wife's Evo sound a lot better (though still not great). Just wanted to comment that you're certainly not alone with this problem. I've just learned to live with it until Samsung fixes the whole headphone out/bluetooth source issue.

My sound quality is great. I can't tell the difference between AUX and bluetooth on my sony.
For me the sound would jitter on both my car stereo and when using wired headphones.
Something is peggin the phone. I had to run logcat to find out what it was.

Mine sounds fine to my jabra extreme. I actually hook it up usb to my head unit and it sounds awesomer that way...yes that's right, awesomeR. You can't ask for great sound quality from a bt headset, kind of their major flaw.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
The sound quality is actually pretty good, much better than I anticipated. I'm going to play around with it some more today and see if I can find a solution. It was skipping a lot, atleast 10 times in a 3 minute song. I'll run it through some tests and report back.
Thanks for your input guys! Much appreciated.
P.S.- dangdang, I'm loving the avatar!!! Disc golf rules lol!

Well... I think I figured it out. Lastnight, I had accidentally left wifi on when I left the house. Today it was off and not a single skip for the 1.5 hours I was driving. Awesome!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I guess that's a possibility. I leave my wifi on all the time, so that would explain it. I'll have to check it next time I head out somewhere. Thanks, man.
new problem
Now I can't get the AVRCP controls to work for the stock music player. Any suggestions?
I have the same unit... skips and volume work on pandora for me.
But I don't know what AVRCP stands for so I am not sure if that has anything to do with what you are attempting.

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
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
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
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
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..
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.
I have tried to make the Adapt Sound work with phone calls on my wired headset and it just doesn't seem to be an option. Anyone know how to make this work??
Curious if it would be possible to get adapt sound to work with Bluetooth headphones?

Didn't check the date on this, but no it won't work on bluetooth and to start the program I had to make a widget. Hope there is an update because they made my wired headphones sound a lot better.
What makes wired headphones and even blue tooth sound the best is Viper4android imo.. It literally turns your headphones into magic :sly::thumbup:
I'm on 4.3 And using this from the Play store

Hey all
I am running a tw 4.4.2 rom (kingdroid at the moment but had the same problem on others).
Using the stock music app or play music (a haven't tried others) when listening to music on headphones the audio will randomly be sent out of the phone speaker and headphone jack at the same time.
I have no idea why.
All I do know is I intended to use this phone instead of a dedicated audio player but I can't as randomly I scared the hell out of old people on the train.
Is this a known issue?
Any advice would be fantastic as I am so close to going and spending stupid money on a dap that I really just don't have lol.
Thanks in advance.
Scott

Update:
This occurs on all audio.
Eg.
Phone calls will route audio via ear piece and speaker. Music will play vis headphones and speaker.
All audio routes as it is meant too but in addition via the speaker.
The issue is intermittent.
No obvious trigger
