Hi,
My headphones don't fully go into the headphone jack about 3/4 in and you can't hear music unless you hold it in a little further. But when u let go it pops out back to 3/4s for i9505 anyone else had this?
Nope. Does it happen with every headphone jack or just yours?

Sound only comes out of the right headphone ( I've seen in another post that this has happened to others, a suggested 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter was the fix. Surley the headphone which comes with it should work properly!!) Anyway got the adapter and it did not make any difference.
I've tried buying new headphones but still no difference. One interesting thing though, I tried my friends nokia headphones and it worked ok but these headphones had no volume control.
The 2.5mm jack has three black plastic rings i've noticed some have two....
Can anyone say for sure what I should purchase to get over this problem??
Hi gang,
Plugged my headphones in this morning and only the right ear worked. There was no sound at all coming out of the left side.
I've soft reset the phone.
I've confirmed the headphones work on both sides using my laptop.
I've tried plugging and unplugging.
I've blown into the headphone jack. Hoping it's just a bit of dust.
All to no avail.
Does anyone else have any suggestions?
I guess the headphone jack is busted? Maybe you could try another set of working headphones in the phone just to be sure, or stereo bluetooth headphones if you happen to have some layin around lol. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, good luck.
Ok the problem appears to have gone away. I tested out another set of headphones and they had the same problem.
But when I plugged my normal set back in it worked.
Later that day only the right side worked. So I unplugged and re-plugged the headphone jack and they came back to life... Not sure what the problem is.
So as most of us know the mic on the TF sucks completely for video chatting. Has anyone figured out how to just hook up a mic to the TF without it turning off the TF speakers?
Right now I have a removable mic from my Razor headset that I can plug into any mic jack and use it on, but since the jack on the TF is for headphones and mic, it disables the sound from playing on the internal speakers.
I'm going to try and dig around on the back end to see if I can find the code that disables the speakers, but I was just wondering if anyone has come across this yet?

My mic is detected as headphones, even worse off than you. You need to get those 1-to-2 splitter for iPad/iPhones, no way of not turning the speakers off (unless you modify the kernel source and compile your own)
So, I'm running into an extremely annoying problem with my G2. Just the slightest touch causes my headphone jack to stop sensing properly.
Example: I'll be listening to Google Music and i'll just ever so slightly move my headphone cable near the base of the 3.5mm headphone plug and suddenly the audio will stop as if I have unplugged my headphones. Yet, my headphones are still snapped in and once I press play again, the music continues on as if nothing has happened.
Some times my phone will go from headphones and speaker...headphones and speaker, headphones and speaker. It's as if it doesn't know my headphones are plugged in.
We are talking super light touching here. Any rotation of the plug while connected will cause it to fail. Simply picking up the phone will cause audio to suddenly stop. I'd be willing to bet that by simply blowing on the damn plug would cause it to fail. Hell, even a fart in the plugs direction would probably cause it to fail. That's how light of a touch I'm talking about here. Also, tapping and rotating the headphone plug while it's plugged in would cause Google Voice search to launch. Super weird.
I don't get whats going on. I see know damage in the headphone input...everything looks fine. I've babied this thing since it has arrived. It has been in a case ever since.
My headphones are good because I've tried them on multiple sources. Plugging in different headphones in to my G2 causes the same problems still. I've tried switching ROMs but the same thing still happens.
I'm at a loss here. I need some advice on what to do. Should I just call Verizon and get a replacement phone? Do I need to unroot to do that?
What a pain in the ass.

I think I might be having a similar problem as yours but with a different device (Square card reader). When I plugged it in the first few times there was a good sturdy click and it felt like it was being held in the jack well. But now it pulls out of the jack too easily, and a light touch causes the reader to disconnect. It seems like the contacts for the headphone jack may have been pressed in or something because it only maintains good contact if i hold a little pressure on the reader.
Either way, I don't like my options since I can either go on with a dysfunctional headphone jack, which might be ok since I use bluetooth more often than the jack, or I can try to get a replacement from LG which will likely be a refurb. I'm rooted too and assume I'd have to unroot in that situation. What to do...
Ever figure out your issue, OP? I'm having the same issue right now.

I think I pushed the plug in too hard on mine and caused the jack to loosen. Amazon replaced the phone for me no questions asked. They continue to amaze me.
and am having problems with the earpiece speaker and or headphone jack.
Alot of the time I have no sound in call from earpiece speaker and need to use handsfree speaker to hear voice.
If I push a headphone plug in and out quickly alot the sound will come back to earpiece speaker.
I thought it might be the headphone jack but it seems to happen after using bluetooth tto listen to music as well as after using headphones.
Sometimes the sound will be very low from earpiece then become normal all of a sudden.
Running latest stock and bootloader unlocked and rooted.
Is there a wired headphone icon on status bar? My ze552kl asumed it was plugged in even though it's been pulled out. Try using a good cottonbud, apply few drops of alcohol to clean up the contact, it'll work almost instantly. Good luck.
