Right earphones.. not working? Anyone else? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I received my nexus 7 replacement a week ago, i thought everything was fine, but just decided to listen to music with headphones/earphones today, and the right side doesn't work...it doesn't work with my music player, youtube etc... i tried a pair headphone and a pair of earphones.
Don't worry, I plugged the earphones in all the way.. I'm sure.
Anyone else have same problem?

Yep mine is like this. I submitted a return request on the website last Tuesday and haven't heard anything. I guess I'll have to waste time on the phone next week.

[Q] bluetooth problem

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.

I tried 2 pairs that work on my phones. I'll try another pair when I get home
I've had mine for 3 days and have the same problem. I used to sets of proven headphones. I use them regularly on other devices so I know that their good. I put in for a warranty replacement yesterday without issue.

Headphone jack broken?

Hey everyone, so today while walking home, I noticed that one of my headphones wasn't working and I was pretty pissed because I love my headphones, anyways, so I tried my other headphones and experienced the same problem, so I concluded my phone broke. So, I've spent about 20 minutes poking around with it and blowing air into it, and I've managed to get one side working, but the other side isn't. One thing I noticed was that the side which isn't working is the side with the mic and these headphones -do- have the 4th prong. I don't have any 3 prong headphones to test with, so I'm going to go to my friends house and test with his, but does anyone know how to fix this because I love my four-prong headphones because the clicker and they're just awesome. Thanks, all help is appreciated.

if its in warranty, they will fix it.
Rooting and all never matters for hardware damages!
Hmmm, I bought it off craigslist, but it was brand new, do you think warranty applies? And do I call LG(

Who do I call to get an RMA?

Hey all, I wanted to ask a couple questions.
1. Is the headphone jack under warranty by Google? Like, one side stopped working.
2. Who do I call/email to get an RMA
3. Are RMA'd phones bad/do they have any problems? One thing I like, don't know if this makes a difference, but in the CPU bin, my phone is "fastest". Don't know if that actually means anything, so yeah.
Thanks!

Oh, and also, should I restore to stock before sending it in?

What do you mean one side of the headphone jack stopped working? You only have one headphone jack.
You have to call Google to request a RMA. I don't think the phone you get will be a defect. That would be counter productive. The CPU bin won't matter. They most likely won't check to see what CPU bin on the phone that will be replaced for you. You should factory reset your phone before sending it in. They might give you a new phone/refurbished device.
Like, one side of the headphones stopped working, also, what's their number? I can't find it o.o

It sure doesn't sound like it's the headphone jack. It sounds like the headphones are broken.
Have you tried a different set of headphones?

Same here
This exact problem happened to me as well, Not so long ago...
Maybe about a week ago at most. My left ear cup is gone but my right ear cup is still working perfectly.
I think it's the contact between the jack and the plug. I'm sending it in next week for a replacement.
I've had my N4 for 9 months until this happened lol
Let me know how it goes!
You ain't the only one.
(855) 836-3987
You have a Google Nexus 4 why not just search google for their number... LOL The phone is under warranty for a year so check when you got it or they will let you know when you speak to them but its not like the new one is expensive at all. How did you get the phone through web or off somebody
Call Google if you bought from Google or call LG if bought from somewhere else(i.e. T-Mobile). And when i was on the phone with Google a week or so ago for an RMA, they said it would most likely end up being a refurb. device.

One sided audio in headphones

Hi guys
For some reason recently when I plug in my headphones I only get sound from one side.
Can anyone guide me on this? Most likely a hardware problem I know.
Does anyone know if I have to get a new jack port, where I could get one from?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
Actually, this has happened to me quite a few times. I found it to be a problem with the headphones/earbuds instead of faulty hardware. First, my left audio would disappear, and about a month later, the right audio would follow suit. I believe it's just a problem with cheap earbuds, or at least was in my case.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
Hmm I dont think its the ear buds as they work fine in every other thing. I've also tried different ones in the n7
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
Have you tried shining a light down the 3.5 jack hole (haha, i said jack hole!) to make sure both the small contacts are sticking out far enough to make contact with the earbuds stem?
