Hi,
I bought the Spigen Neo-Hybrid case. GREAT looking case. One thing I noticed about it though is that my Auxillary cable for my car doesn't fit in the S4 with this case on. It only really works when plugging in S3 headphones, or something equally thin. I suppose I need to get a new auxillary cable. I figure maybe some of you guys had this problem as well. I tried the RadioShack one and it worked fine, but it is 10 bucks. Anyone know of a cheaper one I could get that is a guaranteed fit? It has to be about the size of the S3 headphone set.
I would try monster cables I have the cassette to aux and it fits perfectly

That's a bummer, but hey... it should be an easy easy fix. All you need is a little headphone extension chord.... preferably one that's a few inches long. Just have to find one that fits though.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone has come across such an accessory? It would be super useful for my car (and other scenarios I'm guessing). If anyone has suggestions of how to wire in a normal QI charger into a car that would be really helpful too!
Cheers!

If you really want to do that you could get one of these http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Single-Position-Inductive-Charger/dp/B005QZ8BF0/ref=sr_1_cc_3?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1352514463&sr=1-3-catcorr&keywords=qi+charger and one of these http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-PV150-Portable-Inverter/dp/B0000AI0OE
Kind of a pain but its the only thing I came up with
Thanks. I thought about that but I think I'd prefer to just use a USB cable than spend that money on extra devices for my car... Thanks though!

Same here. Considering the head unit I have already has a usb plug. I'm sure they will make them eventually.
The dock that you can buy from the Play Store is micro-usb powered. So you can just have that plugged into your car.
Keep in mind its only about 70% efficient so for other battery applications its probably best just to plug your phone straight in.
Am I the only one surprised at the dearth of Qi chargers combined with the increasing prevalence of Qi-enabled phones & cases?
Not really... There's like 2 Qi-enabled phones.
Maybe old post but I've found what you where looking for:

I think the second one includes the Wallplug USB power adapter
If you go dig through the accessories section there was a thread with a car mount QI charger, it's pretty much all you need.
What's with the design of this jack? I don't use ear buds but presume most will connect fine, but neither my Foxl speakers nor external amp will connect because of the curve of the phone. No problem with the GNex. Annoyed.

They'll connect just fine? Make sure you press hard enough for it to snap in! It's a standard 3.5mm jack. Just with a little bit of it cut out for the curve

You're right, I'm an idiot. Didn't have to press so hard on the GNex but there you go. Thanks.

I wouldn't worry too much, it took me a few minutes to figure out they had to snap in. I thought I had a faulty jack at first

I know with the bumper it's a bit hard to connect to the jack
i tried conning my headphones to the phone but it cant fully connect.
i tried different sizes of headphone jacks but all of them cant connect
any ideas why?
What do you mean by "Not fully connect" ?
The Nexus 4 packs a 3.5mm headset jack, so basically every headphone with an 3.5mm jack should fit.

what i mean is that when you connect a 3.5mm jack there is a click at the end when its fully connect in my case its not fully connecting
Can you try to connect the headphones to another audio source (eg. your computer) and see if it connects to it?
If not, the problem is your headset.
If it does, your audio jack in your Nexus 4 is somehow messed up.

the headphones work with another phone so i guss its a problem with the dvice
Do you have any other headsets which have a 3.5mm jack?
If you have, try them. If all of the dont fit, your 3.5mm port is broken
You could try to RMA it, or replace the part yourself.

I had this problem on the lg g2x. They were a crappy headset, but did work on other devices. Maybe try another (better?) Pair?

You need to push a hit harder right st the end, it's a tight fit.

Had the same problem. There could be some fluff in the headphone jack. Take a needle and try to remove it carefully..

Most of my headphones dont work with this case, the only ones that work are some cheapos that I have that sucks lol, I was told to find online some small adapter for it in amazon, anyone found it and can link it to me please?

Hey I also have this case and Another option is to grab a set of Bluetooth headphones... I use the LG tones the battery lasts me thru the whole day of constant streaming of iheart... They hang around ur neck and u can put the ear buds in when u wanna use em... Can usually find them for around $50 or so

My skull candy ear buds that I bought at an airport fit perfectly in there. The headphones I use at work didn't fit so I got out a pair off scissors and shaved the plug down cutting off some of the rubber sheath and made it fit.
All of my extra micro usb cables didn't fit either so I filed them down until they did too.

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.

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

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?
