The headphone jack stopped working :( - Xperia Z1 General

The title sums it up guys... when I plug in my headphones, the music is still played from the phone speaker, it was working perfectly yesterday as I listen to music in a daily basis... I'm really gutted, I guess I have to lock my bootloader, revert to OFW and send this junk back to Sony!

I had the same problem on RomAur 6.1 stock KK. To fix it I just reverted back to CM11 and jack worked perfectly and then I went back to RomAur and everything was fine.
It could be a software issue I recommend reflashing the ROM if problem still persists flash another ROM.
If you're still facing the same problem then go full stock with locked boot loader and send to Sony.
Also did you apply any volume mods cause I'm trying to figure out why it did that?

I'm on the stock KitKat Nut rom. I installed the sound increase mod, I reverted back to stock sound volumes, it didn't help, I will try to reflash the rom later and see what happens Thanks for the advice.

Try to clean the headphone jack, I fixed it that way, you could use Sound About to force the sound to go through th headphone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix

Check if there is some water left in headphone socket, I had this issue once.

I flashed the rom again and it's working now.... a bit strange

I had the issue just the other day. Just left the device plugged in and eventually it worked. Pita still though

Out from speaker when headphones connected?

When I plug in the headphones(the one's included) the output comes from the speaker AND headphnes at the same time? I might be a lil tipsy but I can't find in the menu for this....I just wanna hook up my headphones and quietly jam out. But can't!

How did you guys fix this? I tried battery pull and turned on/off but no luck. The headphones quality sounds horrible when this happens. Starting to think it's a hardware issue? Thanks for your help.

All I did was did a battery pull. Left it out for about 10 seconds, then put it back in. I must say the sound quailty is nice(headphones that were included). I came from a moment and sound was low....on here its loud

i had the same issue when i was using Btunes to listen to music. When i went back to the stock app and also doubletwist the issue went away. I thought i was going crazy when i sat my phone down and could still hear music. LOL.

I had the headphones/speaker playing today at the same time as well, it happened when I didn't push the headset in all the way and then backed it out and replugged. It probably botched the software up going in/out/in like that, probably locked the external speaker on.
Yours, on the other hand, sounds like hardware. When the cable gets wonky on my aux wire, I get severe quality issues and I can kind of imagine what you're getting at with yours. Make sure that the plug clicks all the way in, and if the problem keeps happening - hardware it is.

Big upsetting problem with speaker and headset

Guys as you may all know i got my desire hd yesterday. Now my problem is that i was listening to music fine. All of a sudden the music stopped playing and started again however there was no sound. So i tried three other earphones. Still no luck. I then also realised that the speaker doesnt work. No audio at all, music or ringtones. When in a call and i put the speaker on i can hear through it. When i plug in a handsfree or even my mw600 i get nothing. What should i do?

Hey,
Was this an upgrade from a Carrier or a SIM free from a reseller? Either way I would take it back and mention the Sale of Goods Act and ask them to kindly swap out the unit for you. If it's faulty within the first 28 days you are entitled to an exchange.
Hope this helps
It was bought from a reseller. The guy is meant be my mate lol. I mean since i got the phone i just rooted it and installed volume boost because the volume was so low

No, it's no need to swap the phone, its just happens like that with stock rom. I had the same thing few times, a single restart will get back the sound for few weeks.

Try custom roms it might solve ur issue
Which rom would you guys recommend for a newbie?

It's just a bug in the software. i used to have it occasionally on Froyo, but since i upgraded to Gingerbread it seems to have been fixed
Came across this proble today, on stock ROM 2.2.1 , still waiting for Gingerbread here in India.
Hope this gets resolved, its really bugging, requires me to restart phone everytime to solve this and happening quite a lot while listening to music.
To fix this I installed android revolution hd rom

Speaker stopped working

Hi,
I've had my S4 for about 3 days now and today all of a sudden the rear speaker has stopped working. No sound comes out of it at all, including notifications, screen lock sounds, touch sounds and any other sound. I have restarted multiple times but there is still no sound. If I plug in some headphones then I can hear the sound through them, so the problem seems to be related just to the main speaker.
Please help me
Is it brand new. Can you take it back?
Are you rooted? Flash another ROM?

Yeah it's brand new, unrooted and completely stock.
I will go back to the store if all else fails but am hoping there is a solution.

I wouldn't say a lot, but I do use them for an hour or two every night before I go to bed. I used them briefly for about 10 minutes earlier today but the speaker randomly stopped working a few hours after that.
I think I even heard when the speaker malfunctioned because as I touched the screen the touch sound cut out about half way through, though I thought nothing of it. Only now do I realize that there hasn't been any sound out the speaker since then.
Oh because i had that problem lots of times but its because i had headphones in while i switched the phones off or if it went dead while they were plugged in. Then when i restart the phone without them plugged in the phone still thinks there connected when there not so how i fixed it is that i plugged them in and out really fast. Its worth a try but i doubt it will work in your case

Well nothing I tried worked, so I'm guessing it was a hardware malfunction (my guess is that the speaker blew somehow).
I went back to the store today and they gave me a new S4 with no hassle. Just a little disappointed that I spent all weekend setting it up and customising it and now I have to do it all again.
Heres hoping this one lasts more than 4 days lol.

Lol. Been abusing my i9500 like crazy since june. No issues so far. So your unit must have been faulty from the beginning.

Did you try plugging in another headset and taking it out? I find it odd that it would be 'stuck' in headset mode, even after a complete stock wipe.

installed my country(Israel) stock rom
using the flash tool provided on lg website
and still got headphones mode :<
any more sulotions guys?
Like mentioned before, I would guess that it's the physical headphone jack. Likely the contact that gets pushed when you insert the headphone plug is stuck. I would plug in another headset a few times and see if it fixes itself.
Plug in and out till it pops. ......

Just had this happen to me. Cleared data. Flashed stock. No difference. Has to be hardware. I wasn't even using the headphone jack when this happened.
I wonder if it's the connectors to the board

Mine does make the odd weird sound when the headphone jack is plugged in makes me wonder if this is something to come. ...

Mine isn't actually stuck on. It randomly turns on and off. It is extra annoying with the plug and pop app running. Something is loose. Maybe it is the board connector. A good drop on pavement could certainly knock something loose.
I found an app to route the audio to the speaker so at least I can still hear my alerts. Here's the link if you need it.

Bad sound quality on 4.4 custom Roms

Hallo,
I would like to make a simple question...
Tried 2 custom 4.4 Roms on my LG G2 (droidkangs and mahdis) and in both versions I noticed the same problem...
The speaker sound (even though loud) is of VERY bad quality when playing deeper sounds like basses!
In stock Roms the sound (same MP3) is crystallclear... Tried many settings in DSP manager... Tried almost everything I found in iNet, but I am going back to stock based Roms as on max volume its like my speaker is broken :/ (when I use headphones or BT headset I don't have that issue)
Could any1 please tell me what the reason for this problem is?? Is it normal that the sound quality from speaker is so much worse than the stock versions??
And can this be fixed?
Please, if some1 knows the answer just give me the info as I rly don't want to go back to stock Rom :/
Thank you!
I have the same problem on Cyanogenmod 11 and Paranoid .
CyanogenMod the sound is pretty low, on Mahdi's pretty high. Try equalizer settings on those ROMs. It might require a tweak to your liking.

Same here. Running CM11 and speaker quility cracks up when it gets loud. I tried messing with Viper, but alas, no improvement. Don't think there's a fix yet though..

Mahdi has same issue if you max sound... I think that all the 4.4 roms have this problem so flashing other customs won't help.
i never use the speaker because i thought it was terrible to begin with but i just tested it out and and mine does not get very loud but i use headphones 99.999.9999999999999 percent of the time but it is definately a bug but other than this bug i really havent had anyother problems
Getting the same poor phone call sound quality d803 carbon
