[Q] LG G2 right audio channel not working - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
So recently after breaking my bluetooth headset, I connected my wired headset to listen to my music via an audio cable like i did when i just got the phone. Turns out that only the left channel works (tested it with lots of headsets). Cleaning the port didn't help either. Since sending it back to the online shop for a little problem like this would take ages (different country) and I need my phone daily, i decided to swap out the flex ribbon cable with the audio jack myself. So, placed the new part, closed the phone up and...the right channel still doesn't work
I mean, it's not a huge problem, I just use a mono adapter for now, but maybe someone else had the same problem and maybe it's just a little software issue due to the custom roms? Sending it back is out the window now i guess Altough they probably wouldn't even be able to tell it was opened.
Any suggestions are appreciated
Thanks in advance!

3 n 1 mini usb adapter for tilt 8925 problem

i bought the 3 n 1 mini usb adapter (headset, 3.5 mm jack, charger) for the tilt on ebay and when i plug it in...all it does it repeatedly dial the last number i called, even if the charger or headset is not plugged in...is there a a setting i can adjust so that it will stop doing this?
To clarify...
You plug only the adapter in and it dials the last number all by itself? Hmmm... If that's the case I'd say it's a faulty plug. I've heard a fault in the usb port can cause wierd stuff, but never heard of the phone dialing itself.
I was thinking about getting one of these...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...STRK:MEWA:IT&viewitem=&item=350026228214&rd=1
Is it the one you got? Can you tell me if the 3.5mm jack will work with a headphone / microphone set up? I'd like to be able to answer calls while I'm plugged in with my headphones.
i have this one...http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-3-in-1-STER...ryZ15040QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
it's slightly different than the one you were looking at...that sucks if the plug is faulty...i just got it today...it is the strangest thing though when it dials by itself....it will just redial the number even if you end the call....
I would just send it back for an exchange. Does the phone auto dial if you plug in something else (ie. charger, sync cable, usb headphones)? Wish I could help more but I've never heard of this.
If you have a voice command software installed (Cyberon or Microsoft) it could be picking up interference from the adapter as a command to dial.
Let me know if you find out whether the 3.5mm will support a microphone. If it does I'll give it a try too and see if it auto dials mine.
i plug in the wall charger and headset individually...no problems...the phone acts normal...just when i plug in that adapter it starts going haywire...
I purchased one of these and it arrived yesterday:

I'm suffering the same problem as the first poster - my TyTN II is randomly calling the last number dialled, and is also firing up VoiceCommander when this is plugged in.
Am going to test if it occurs when the adaptor is plugged in but no headphones are attached.
Very frustrating, although this was only a short term solution for listening to music (the HTC supplied headphones are CRAPTASTIC!) until I purchase a stereo bluetooth headset.
I've tried both of the ones I've listed below without any strange behavior on my Tilt.

I have the Semsons 2-in-1 also with a Tilt and have had no problems, but then again I am not using any voice command software.
BTW, it is a little bit cheaper if your order it direct from the company
http://www.semsons.com/2miusband3st.html
I've been using one of these for about a month now, paid about 8 bucks for it, works flawless with my T-Mobile Wing. Maybe it's an isolated Tytn II/Kaiser problem?

Update
I've uninstalled VoiceCommander and now have no issues using the adaptor. It appears they were causing some interference and sending a redial command.
Will reinstall when I move to a bluetooth headphone/mic setup, but has done the trick for now.
Has anyon had issues with the tilt speaker not turning off when using the 3-in-1 adpater? I just got one off of ebay and it plays both out of the 3.5mm jack and the tilt's speaker at the same time. I have a single 3.5mm to USB and it doesn't have this issue. Any help?
Nevermind, looks like it was a phone issue. I turned the phone off and then back on again and it had no problems.
omg guys I'm so ticked. I got mine to use in my car. I was gonna stream music to my phone and also use it as a hands free solution. I plugged it in and started having the same problems with voice command and the dialing. I'm NOT uninstalling my vc software! All I want to be able to do is have my tilt's sound going through the speakers and be able to use my voice command as well. Why should that be impossible??? I need to know, is this a problem with just this one adapter? If you have voice command on your tilt and have a different adapter that is giving you no problems, please let me know so i can get that adapter asap. This stuff is very frustrating. Thanks. SPACE

Hey I got the same problems ? But this ist no phone issue I think it is a profile issue because the Phone got a Headset connection with this 3in1 Adapter so the speakers are disabled.
Is there Any Software or sth. else to switch speakers back on. ?
Has anyone figured out a solution to this? Have a friend that just got one of those adapters from Amazon and it does the same thing, keeps trying to redial the last number called over and over.
you have to buy another one with a specific type of plug for it to work properly. Even then, I believe that when a headset type thing is plugged in it automatically turns off the mic on the phone... very stupid... I think this is because whatever htc wanted you to use has a mic built into already.... still stupid. I saw htc's adapter online somewhere, might have been a link in this thread.

Issue with audio adapter

I purchased this audio adapter from Seidio. The first time I plugged it in, plugged in earphones, and played a song, it sounded terrible. The audio was very muffled, and it's kind of hard to describe. If you are familiar with Realtek's "karaoke mode" (where the audio is distorted and the vocals are missing), it sounds very similar. I would record a clip using my computer line in, but the adapter doesn't pick it up. It also doesn't pick up speakers (pick up as in audio still plays through the phone's speaker). I've called tech support and they told me to return it and they'll send a new one. Well, they sent a new one and I got it today, and it's still like that. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm pretty sure my usb port works; I connect it to my computer using activesync all of the time fine.
I'm using Alex's 5.2 clean ROM if that makes a difference.
USB audio adapter
I purchased this one on ebay FOR $0.01 plus $3.00 shipping and it works great.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl..._widget&_trksid=p284.m183&_trkparms=its=S%2BI
Well, I'm pretty sure it's not a ROM/radio problem. I just tried several ROMs with different radios with no avail. I suppose I will call Seidio again on Monday. Has anyone ever had problems with their hardware? Also, is it possible that the top half (the data) can work fine while the bottom half (the audio) is broken on the port on the device?

HW6915 gone silent unless handsfree

Hi guys, i'm new to the forum, i've been following a few threads for months now just to try and keep up to date with the on-goings of my 6915 but now i have a problem.
using the phone on it's own no one can hear me and i can't hear them, also no sounds can be heard from the phone other than when it rings even with media player or wav files.
when using the hands-free wired headset or my in car bluetooth parrot it works fine.
i did read about another PDA that had got a faulty socket where the hands free headset wire plugs in the bottom of his PDA, could it be this socket? i've poked a cotten bud inside and tried again but still no luck.
i've reflashed the ROM (G4) to make sure it isn't that (thanks to those who wrote those threads and the yahoo email account, the roms is still there)
i've also checked all the settings are correct and all volumes are turned up but nothing, no sounds what so ever other than when it rings.
any ideas guys?
thanks in advance
Paul
found the cause of this even though i've still to fix the problem (replace the headset socket), i searched the net for this problem and it turns out several people have had problems with the socket for the wired headset, theres a small switch in the headset socket that stays on and the PDA thinks the headset is still plugged in vus disabling the onboard speaker and microphone, i wonder if theres a hack to disable this feature.
anyone interested in reading what others have done checkout this thread at HP

go to start/settings/sys/ipaq audio 
if you get a note that ask for connecting the headset then your audio plug is ok and iI think it is the speker that gone bad, else it is your plug ,you can try to use conntact renew spry with battery out of the unit ,insurt battery 10min afrer you used the spry during that time try to play with the plug ,insurt/pull out good luck ,btw- if you have redioshake (i think that is the name of the elct store) near by try to ask them for halp
Thanks Erez, yes i tried that and it didn't ask for the headphones so it definatly is the headphone socket that's gone faulty.
i'm a pc and printer engineer by trade and have already had the ipaq to bits to see if it's anything else and all looks ok, i might de-solder the socket and have a play with it and see if i can disengage the switch.
thanks for the help, it's confirmed the fault and i can do something about it.
not sure how i'll de-solder the socket but it's the only thing to do other than try your switch cleaner, infact i've got some isopropel alcohol in a can, i'll give it a spray with that now
Paul
i fixed the fault...but it mean't removing the socket for the wired headset.
i de-solderded the socket and took it off then bridged two of the contacts for the socket.
there are 6 contacts that look like this
. .
. .
. .
the top left and middle left need to be bridged with a piece of wire for it to return to normal, you could do this without removing the socket.
i now have another fault though and thats the keyboard doesn't work very well as i think i got some iso clean in there so i've got to strip the keyboard next! oh what fun

Sorry to say but it sounds like the digitizer is on it's way out. Replacing the digitizer is probably the only perminent fix. But don't just take my work for it, keep looking it still may yet be another solution out there for you.
I found a solution without replacing any hardware or soldering.
Follow these steps:
1. Download Android Terminal Emulator: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm
2. Delete your default music player with this tutorial: http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-20098610-285/removing-stock-apps-on-rooted-android-devices/ (I use this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860 and my default music player was named: Music.apk)
3. Download Winamp: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5udWxsc29mdC53aW5hbXAiXQ.. (to replace your default music player)
Tell me if it works
Common issue with some headsets & ROM headset driver/software & not related to digi as far as I have seen.
So if its a common issue are there other ways to fix it? Is there no way to just disable headset input?
Seen it in threads & on 2 colleagues HD2s when using some headset types.
Problem is audio feed bridges to remote connector on some leads with less than perfect connectors for the HD2 jack.
Using a standard headset adapted to 3.5mm female after buttons is one good option.
Saw a few threads on people looking for way to isolate remote driver but do not know the outcome but worth doing some searching.

Done on standard original headset lead it works perfect with after market headsets.
You may also get lucky with adapter like your link ...
What is the model name of that adapter?
And isn't that a 2,5 mm jack?
3.5mm jack added to standard genuine headset, done similar to my original headset and use aftermarket headphones & retain standard remote function without issues.

[Q] Hdmi audio issue for M.O.J.O

I have had my Mad Catz M.O.J.O for about 4 months now and It is rooted. I have everything set up where I have 2 computer speakers connected to my tv while the M.O.J.O. is connected via Hdmi. However, I have been having problems with the sound not coming out of the tv. It has of course worked at some point before. I have tried to search it, but I haven't found anyone else with the same issue for the M.O.J.O. The sound is enabled and turned up in the settings.
Hi!
Just for clarification have you tried playing sound on your TV via HDMI from another device than the Mojo? And does the Mojo play sound when plugging the speakers directly to it's audio jack?

Yes I have. Before I used the M.O.J.O, I used my laptop to connect to the tv for games, movies, etc. The sound worked fine.
The M.O.J.O does connect with the speakers if you plug them in directly to the audio jack, but it doesn't use 100% of the speakers. It will have some sound in one speaker and in the other there will be no sound.
I recently bought a Griffin Aux Audio Cable to try. I connected one end to the M.O.J.O and the other end to my tv's audio jack. While using the cable, the sound doesn't instantly work, but after some minutes it appears to in a sense reconnect the M.O.J.O sound to the tv. After the sound reconnects, I can then connect my speakers and then everything works perfect.
I'm not exactly sure why, but the problem is solved for now.

Did you figure out why it works or not?
I recently swapped my ouya for mojo and I dont get sound on HDMI at all no matter what cable/port combination I use, the sound is present on speaker output.

If I were you I would try to return it if I can or try to use the warranty if it still has one.
The problem from mine progressed and worsened to where I just sent it off to Mad Catz. I had got another one (latest model) and it works much better. If you didn't buy it and just swapped out, I am currently selling mine. It's practically new with no problems. If not, I hope I was somewhat helpful.

The headphone port on my unit looks installed improperly - I do get sound via headphones, but its possible its short circuited somewhere and the unit is cutting off HDMI audio thinking the phones are plugged in, I will return it and see if they can fix it, but I expect its something silly like this.

Ok, Mad Catz is very helpful when helping fix issues for their customers. They should be able to help you with the problem. Call them and or file a ticket to send it in.
Fixed,
The issue was that my unit was a refub and the headphone jack was soldered incorrectly, we unsoldered the jack and short circuited all the right pins and now i have working sound
