Headphone port stopped working! - Atrix 4G General

I tried every solution but it seems it does not work. My atrix is in warranty but it is bootloader unlocked, will motorola still fix it?

bump, 10 characters

Do you mean an earpiece? If you do, this is a rather frequent issue. A spare part can be found on ebay (~15$). My phone had the same issue, I fixed it by myself

I had this issue as well. and none of the "things to try worked" in my case it was surely hardware. Luckly it was just 50 weeks young... (down to the wire) But called AT&T and they had me do a hard reset and said "yep it's broke" and put one on the way. Since during the unlocking process there is a physical change to the phone you can't undo it. However, there's a few threads on what to do before sending your other one back. / Basically it's wipe wipe wipe and install the fruitcakes. Though it doesn't "re-lock" your phone, it no longer says "unlocked" when you first turn it on. And I think they are to busy to go much past that if even that far...
In my case they said i'd only get a phone, no battery or back and would have to use my own. (no issues there) but they ended sending me everything. So not going to argue with a fresh battery.
Good luck!

Ok thank you, your post was really helpful. Since i bought my atrix from bestbuy, would i contacts bestbuy, Att, or motorola for replacement/fixing?

Is this a common problem?
My headphone port has stopped working too, I was hoping that that was due to a bad flash or something.

Same here. Works from time to time. Mine is definitely a hardware problem. The headphone jack will not go far enough into the hole to make proper contact.

I had this problem and it turned out to be a small piece of lint at the bottom of the headphone jack. A little safety pin removed it and works flawless now.

OP, it is most likely a piece of lint or other debris in the hole, preventing a proper connection.
Try seeing if you can extract anything using a toothpick or something similar.
I have seen this exact scenario before.

I have the same problem but upon analysis I think that I don't have anything stuck in there.
When I peered into the socket it seemed fine, golden sides and some grey (metallic?) thing at the base.

My bad. I had an abundant account of lint. My headphones are working fine now.

Mine stopped working last week. I picked up one of those little bushy tooth floss picks, dipped it in a little rubbing alcohol and brushed away. Works perfectly now, just had debris built up on the contacts.

Hidden download mode on Vibrant?

Guys. Just playing around with my used Vibrant. I flashed it with a few odin variations from I9000 (noob me). I guess you know what happens. It failed to boot up with a scary screen of Phone-!-PC sign (of course Odin didnt complain at all).
I tried so many combinations of keys (in panic) to get it to download mode and nothing worked. That horrible sign would just be there as soon as the phone is reset thru all methods...(3-buttons, 2-buttons, battery pullin, usb pullin, hair pullin)
However, then I noticed Odin screen say "Added!" message with a yellow comport sign while I was still trying in panic...and feeling hopeless as the screen is still with the deadly sign Phone-!-PC.
So I thought it probably was a fluke since there's no Android Download sign on screen... I decided to push my luck and flashed a different version with Odin. It worked!
Just a tid bid to share in case you hit this condition. If Odin sees the fone, you might have a chance.
UPDATE: Forgot to mention how it gets to the "Added" message on Odin. I hit power button and reset fone until it comes up. Then hit vol +/- buttons at once. Odin would says "Added!" message... you're good to go.
This is well known by most of the community and has been covered multiple times.
No troll intended.

Duh for me. Now I'm at a worse nightmare. I dont think its been solved. While I was successfully flashed the Vibrant to new 2.3.4 firmware. I got mixed up with my 2nd Vibrant by plugin the cable to my SGS4G. As I had laid it on the same work table while trying to get SIM card out for testing. It is hard-bricked!
No power activity no lighting whatsoever after the successful flash. So... i set out to build a USB JIG... after many trials. The JIG worked well on the Vibrant everytime, yet still not able to resurrect the SGS4G...
God damn these fones are almost exactly the same. Anyone got directions to build a time machine? I wish I can just turn back the knob to the second before I hit the start button on Odin. I wonder what I can do with a $200 SGS4g hard brick.
Hmm.... very stylish paper weight?

I'm really Stephen Hawking. I can build you one for $550,238,295,588,299.99 OR you can just buy yourself a new phone. I think the new phone is a much wiser option since it's 2,751,191,477,941 times cheaper.
But really... just because you're phone is a paper weight doesn't mean you can use the parts. Just look at what you have. The 4g camera itself is at least $25. There are people that want to use the battery cover and spend at least $10 just for that. Then there are other things such as the digitizer, etc. Look at this here. This person is selling his/her phone for $100 as a broken device. Just some advice.

You can try selling it on ebay or CL. I've seen some listings there. But before you do that, PM me first.
Got it back
Hehe. Yeah thanks u all posting good advices. I did search around for options for a bit while keep marveling it on my desk... just a beautiful piece of gadget.
Parting it out, the screen would be $100+ already. I saw some on eBay $115~$130 range. And quite some time and effort to get it sold....
I registered on Samsung with the IMEI number, it shows still in-warranty. Talked to the tech, obviously it's a user service issue since I caused the brick. They say its a flat-fee service of $75. Whoa! ... got my heart jumped again. I was about to send it in... then I saw some CL items with cracked screens (of the 3G model)... bought one for $45 and decide to take the risks.
You know what I gonna do. ...I gut the SGS3G and use the screen/frame of my dead SGS4G. Of course, this'd be a downgrade dead 4G->3G. I tested the cables/plugs & parts (mainboard doesnt fit yet), put in battery, hit power button and voila! it came to life!
The circuit board of the 3G doesn't fit flush into the 4G screen frame. it has 2 protruding thingy about 1mm high... Just clip off those 2 metal markers and replace the 3.5mm jack/earpeice/light sensor assy over from the 3G and its all perfect again (the plug is slightly/wider & different in the 4G model, though layout/design & fit is exactly the same).
PHEW! A hasty second costs me $45 and quite a few hours on the net. I thanks to this forum for most of the help. This is just great.
P.S: The flat-fee service is for ANYthing except screen replacement which is around $165 parts & labor (in case some of u wonder, i did too since some ppl selling really cheap busted screen SGS3G out there)

Touch screen problem

Hi. My screen has a touch imput free area on the top part of it. It is about a half inch, just bellow the notiffication bar. My phone is rooted, and i have hotspot enabled. Other than that is stock.
Plrase advise me as to what i can do. If there is nothig i can do, is my warranty voided because root? Who should i contact for warranty? Att or motorola?

Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I dont remember. I was rooted, and than updated my phone to the latest moto release. Lost root and than i had to flash somethig to get root back and than to unlock the hotspot app.
This was about 2 or 3 months back. All was ok till about a month ago, when i dropped the phone to the floor. Noticed the screen issue shortly after. Not sure if the drop caused this tho. There are no scratches on the screen, and it had a silicone case on it.

I also have that problem, the problem is with the touchscreen not the software. At first, the touchscreen will not work for sometime you'll need to turn the screen off and on again. The problem will start more frequent. Then, the touchscreen on some part of the screen will not work at all. Only to fix is to call ATT for a repair. But, I live in Thailand and I brought mine at US. So, it not worth sending it back. I buy the touchscreen off ebay for $60 and change it myself. Working great now.
Pretty cheap on ebay, some for $40. My screen started acting the exact same way. I honestly believe it's heat damage. I remember reading that there are layers of the glass that are glued together. Extreme heat could cause the layers to come apart enough that sections of the screen are unusable.
My screen is exactly as the OP said, about a half-inch from the bar at the top. I noticed it soon after I started mounting the phone in my car near the top of the windshield where it could get some steady sunlight (obviously I didn't realize it was doing that until I noticed this problem).
I just ordered my replacement off ebay and will give it a shot. It's worth $40 if it'll let me use my phone properly again and hold off having to get a new phone prior to my upgrade price kicking in.
Hopefully installation won't be too hard. Good luck to the rest of ya!
This happen to my boyfriend's phone recently as well. I posted everywhere trying to find a solution but no one could help. It started to get worse after about a week or so where another section, towards the bottom of the screen, became unresponsive as well. My boyfriend finally called Motorola and sent it in for repair. We don't have ATT's insurance so we didn't try that way. Anyways, he's suppose to receive the phone this Monday...we'll see if it's fixed.

Did your touchscreen come with the adhesive? If not, you'll need to be extremely careful when you remove the old one cause you'll need the adhesive or you'll need the two sided tape with <0.25mm thick and apply it to around the touchscreen and remember to apply it as a close system or the dust will go under your screen.
If you need more info just PM me
I think i.ll call moto.

Mine had the same issue, ive unlocked, rooted, modded the rom and radio, so no going to ATT, instead i took it to UbreakItIFixIt, just google them, best $99 i spent and kept all my custom goodies!
Sorry I haven't responded, hopefully you got your phone fixed but just in case you haven't...The phone came back and he hasn't had a problem with it whatsoever. The rep on the phone didn't know what was wrong with it or what they did to fix it but whatever they did, it worked. It took about a week or so to get the phone back and the only thing he had to pay for was shipping the phone out.

Broken USB port fixable?

Hi guys,
I've got a problem with the USB port on my DHD. It charges fine - no problems there - but it refuses to transfer data! I've tried different cables, different ports on the PC, a different PC and a different OS and still the same problem. The PC(s) don't recognise anything has been plugged in and the phone doesn't ask me what type of connection I want. I've cleared the defaults and set it to 'ask every time' but still nothing. Therefore I summise that the USB port on the phone is dead (despite the fact that it transfers power just fine).
My question is; do you think it's fixable without returning to the manufacturer? It's out of warranty by a few months now and I bought it SIM free so I can't go crawling to my network with it. Do you think this is within the capabilities/resources of high street repair shops? The reason I'm asking here instead of in said shops is because I live miles away from the nearest one that I know of and don't fancy making the trip for nothing!
Basically I really, REALLY want to root my phone and start messing around with custom ROMs - but obviously I can't if I have no USB connection :'(
Thanks guys.

Have you tried cleaning the port out with something like a paperclip or a sewing needle? I had the same problem as you and after doing that it works perfectly. It just had a load of fluff from my pocket stuck in it. I went through 3 cables before I realised this :/

You sure it's out of Warranty? Certainly in the UK warranty is two years and the phone was released here October 2010 thus all UK phones are still well within warranty
Use a magnifying glass or equivalent, and carefully inspect the contacts inside the connector. You might need to clean them up by scraping them down a little. It is very possible they might have some debris stuck on them. If the port is very loose, take the phone apart and using needle nose pliers, squeeze the connector housing together a little to tighten it up. Had to do this on my TP2 port after a while(mini USB) and it worked like a charm.

I asked in a rapair shop and the guy there seemed to think it was likely a problem with the traces on the charging block. Although that was just his opinion from experience - he didn't actually look at it. I declined his offer to open it up and have a gander.
I wasn't aware it was a 2 year warranty. I might send it back then.
Has anyone had any experience with HTC's service centres?
Are they likely to also flash the phone with the latest firmware whilst they're at it? AFAIK (though do correct me if I'm wrong as admittedly I haven't checked in a while) there's no known way to gain root for the latest firmware.

U8800 acts like its possessed!

Hi folks
In the last 3 days, my trusty old phone has begun to act as if it is either possessed or with its own mind.
If I try to compose a reply to a text, random characters appear in the input field and then Attach dialog appears at random. If I try to back out, the text message just gets sent.
In the home screen, the browser is randomly launched with me touching the screen, or the browser icon mysteriously migrates from the dock onto the general screen
I activated 'Show touches' in 'Developer options', and it shows random touches of the upper and mid right-hand sides of the screen (without me actually touching the screen).
It started under Aurora 3.1 Update 5. I tried a complete wipe, but with no resolution. I installed Aurora 4.1, but the problem remains.
As I type this on an iPad, the phone beside me is running mad with the browser opening and selecting random tabs.
I've removed the protective cover to avoid the possibility of pressure from the sides doing a nasty.
Any ideas and advice greatly appreciated.
Naj
I suggest either:
A) Call priest to make an exorcism : p
B) GO into CWM, wipe cache and wipe davilk (just these 2) and flash the aurora release you are using again, on top of what you have.
You won't lose any settings and might help correct some files or systems setting that might eventually got corrupted.
And how this will help?
He said that has already done a full wipe, and flashed Aurora ICS 4.1 clean.
Seems that is a hardware damage.
same happened to me. your touchscreen is broken. i just gave it back and good thing i still have warranty. they replaced my screen for free. and also i had atmel, now i have synaptics. also DO NOT FORGET to flash stock 2.2
btw you know what was really pissing me off? i had random touches around section where the "send message" button was. so when i was typing, it sent every 5 words -.-
Have you tried a different Rom to see if you also have the issue, such as flash a stock version?
Sent from Odin's device!
Looks like hardware problem. I think no ROM will fix this...

Thanks all for your comments.
I guess it is the digitizer. My phone is out of warranty, so it's a case of repair myself or replace. I don't feel like spending money on a new phone, so it's the former for me.
eBay has digitisers for around AUD$25.00. I am familiar with disassembling and reassembling the phone (dropped it into the toilet about 6 months ago!), so this should be a relatively cheap repair.
Thanks again

I'd really like to buy a shiny new one. However, a decent phone will involve either a substantial out-right purchase price or a 2 year commitment with a phone carrier.
Anyway, every phone has its annoyances that make you want to turn it into fine powder! I hear of people disappointed even with the Samsung Galaxy SIII! However the X5 has been okay for me. It recovered well from a previous dunking in the toilet - courtesy of my beloved - and generally works great with Aurora.
I have already ordered another digitizer for AUD$21.05 including tools. If the repair is successful then I have a fully working phone after a very small outlay.

you may need a firmware update of your touchscreen

Vibration motor stopped

i've had the s7 Edge since launch. ive treated it like an egg on a spoon. never was in water, never dropped it. i've had a case on it at all times, and too many screen protectors to count on at all times. not cuz they broke, just cuz of the obvious TGSP never sitting right, then back n forth with Armorsuits, and IQ Shields, case friendly and non, etc. Anyway, last week, i noticed while typing it wasnt vibrating.
checked all my settings, they were fine
rebooted, shut down, over n over.... not it
went into service mode to check it. nothing showed failed
booted into safe mode incase of a rogue app, nada
last resort was a factory reset. also did squat.
very disappointed as i treated this phone so delicately being it is after all, made of glass.
and i did come from a long line of bootlooped LG G4's before jumping ship to Sammy.
So i had to RMA my phone. Samsung Smart Switch made the transfer relatively painless. but i hope in another 4 months, im not in the same boat again. im posting this because i couldnt find any other results with this issue, except over on reddit i saw a post about this with the regular S7. oh, and im on an AT&T variant, non rooted, fully updated just incase this thread develops.
rant over
Vibration motor are pretty rare to go, they usually get stuck, unless you have a lemon, which just happens to be the luck of the draw. They're relatively easy to replace if its out of warranty though, so not a big issue. You probably should had tried reflashing the phone before returning it. Just my 2 cent as a phone repairman.
