I'm having an issue with pretty much every N rom I've tried - when I play music using wired headphones or with an AUX cable hooked up to my car, the music will stop randomly, usually every few minutes. Sometimes I'll get lucky and it won't do it for a while, but regardless, it still happens. I've tried a handful of different apps, AUX cables and headphones, and it always happens. Playing music using Bluetooth or the phone speaker causes no problems. Also, I disabled battery optimization for every app I've tried and still get pauses, and I've cleaned the headphone jack with rolled up tape to make sure there's no dirt or lint in there. I'm out of ideas and couldn't really find anything here on XDA or searching on Google. Please help, and thanks!
have you tried with another headphone? your headphone's cable might be little bit broke, so ur phone detect that the jack is unplugged, and it stopped automatically. (bad english srry, im trying to help)
Thanks for the reply, but I already said I tried different headphones and AUX cables
I can't be the only one experiencing this issue
I am facing the same issue as you do.
Yep, same here. Happened on pretty much every Nougat Rom out there.
I just looked through the settings on my phone and poweramp (Beta, don't know about the stable version) has a setting for this exact problem and it seems to work

Hey all, I know a lot of people have had problems with the jack doing goofy things, however my problem is a little different. I'm having an issue where i'll be listening to music just fine on my headphones, unplug them, a bit later plug them back in and it no longer plays though the headphones. It will play though the external speaker just fine, but when you plug it in, you head music for about 400ms then it goes silent. Upon rebooting the phone the audio will work again. Sounds almost like a software glitch but not sure how to fix it. The HTC support rep suggested a "hard reset" I really don't want to do that, but it may come to it for testing purposes.
Anyone else run into this problem? I would really like to fix it without wiping the phone.
No headphone problems here my friend. Good luck.
Just a heads up. The evo can sense a mic'd headset inserted or a standard 3.5mm headphone or aux cable. When it senses a standard cable it will run off the headphones and let you do commands or talk trough the built in mic. I had a "headphone" issue that many talk of with diffent things poping up or music not playing. All i had to do was push until I heard a locking click with the headset and with the standard headphones I have. Everything has worked great since then

This just might work for you
I've checked high and low on the forums for something similar or a solution to my problem, but alas I can't find anything so I'm starting a thread.
As the title state's my phone rings people whenever an AUX jack is in, listening to music, or hooked up to a stereo. I've tried restoring to factory setting's also I've tried different headphones and stereo's but still no joy.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Many thanks.

Hmm, maybe I've got a similar probelm, I use normal 3.5mm in-ear headphones with my Desire HD and they are able to make strange things, if I gently move the jack, sometimes my phones starts a call to the latest called person, sometimes it skips to the next song, sometimes the music is paused.
I think that has something to to with the default headset funcionality, but it would be great if there was a way to lock any function other than playing music if no multi-functional headset is plugged in.
You're going to think I'm nuts but I've tried everything.
It seems to go berserk when you do a screwing motion with the 3.5mm jack. It doesn't make any difference what headphones I use whether they've got any calling buttons on them or not they just go absolutely mental.
I will admit to doing the calling bug that increases the music volume when you hang up straight after making the call.
But I still can't get around it and it's VERY frustrating, especially in the car.
The same problem
Hey, i have the same problem. This morning i was listening to music on my way to school. And all of the sudden it went berserk, started calling, skipping. What to do?
That happens if the AUX wire passes a current (many times stray) back to the phone. The phone just reacts in the way it would if a button was pressed on one of those headphones having an in-line mic/button.
A lot of times this stray current comes because of static build-up. I'm sure you guys know how to get rid of that. If it's not because of static, it might be because of faulty wiring on the audio enhancement (not usually the case), or if the audio enhancement and the phone function at hugely different potential differences (also, usually not the case).
As far as mine is concerned, freeing it of static usually helps.
One way to quickly judge if it's static that's the problem is if the call/skip/whatever usually takes place the minute you plug it in.

Search for an app on the market called "headset blocker"
NO luck
The above post helps,
However im testing the new ICS rom by Lord Clockan and twistedumbrella and there is no compatability for ICS. Wondering is anyone knows what part of the phone controls headset controls so i can mak an app to block it on 4.0?
Its a real pain as i cant play music at all,
random apps start playing music over other apps and music stops in others, skips tracks etc. SO frustrating.
Take out headphones
Blow into the jack hole
Plug back in headphones
Sorted till the next time crap builds up in there.

I have the same problem. And its realy anoyeing me . Cant listen to music at all anymore on my desire HD...
I have that problem for a while now. The blwoing inside technik did work for a while, but doesent anymore.
That headset blocker would be amazing if it would be working on ICS. Im on the LordMod Beta to.
@geinome would be amazing if you could make an app to fix that. But honestly i have no idea were in the sistem that headset control is located. Hope you can find it.
Found a Fix. Hope it helps you guys to.
I found an other App, that did solfe the problem for me eaven on ICS. The App Headset Interceptor is meant to let you choos, which Music App should receve the signal coming from the remote on the headset. But if you dont choose any from the Apps to get the signal, none dose and so none is cousing problems
Would love to post you guys the link to the market, but cant couse i dont have anouth post yet. But im sure i can sind it yourself
I hope this is solving the problem with the unwanted calls to. Couse i never had that problem, i cant test that.
you dont need any apps
you just need a needle to clean up the pocket lint inside the 3.55 jack.
for me it's usually enough to unplug the jack and plug it in again and all works well for the next month or so.
Hi everyone
This just happened half an hour ago out of the blue. I was listening to some music and suddenly it started hissing and popping. I have iBeats headphones which I just bought yesterday. Now all the time when I use my phone to play music I get this interference.
I am on the 2.5 stock ROM. If it doesnt happen immediately once I plug the headphones in it starts immediately when I start to play something. Then it doesnt go away even when I pause it.
This issue doesnt happen on my computer with the same exact headphones so I'm guessing somethings gone wrong with the port?
EDIT: It doesnt happen if I take the plug out ever so slightly. It only happens if I plug it in all the way.
Beats always gives static for me I have beats tour...also for your issue try with another pair of earphones to be sure the problem is with your phone

It just started happening to me the other day. I'm using the stock headphones, and first noticed when I called a friend, apparently the microphone was causing her even worse noise.
I think it may just be a hair or something stuck in the bottom of the port as I can see something, but can't seem to get it out...
I just tried the headphones with another phone and the problem is still there. Does this mean it is the headphones at fault? I only just got them yesterday!
Checked again and it still doesnt happen on the computer...
EDIT: The problem seems to have gone. All by itself...but I will remain vigilant lol
I got the same thing especially when the phone is connected with the usb.
I think it was a bit of a reaction to static electricity. When I put on my anti-static wrist strap the problem disappeared. I dont think these headphones are electromagnetically shielded.
Hi guys, i have an hd2 with nand android, and i have a problem when i plug in the aux cable or earphones: the phone during the play of a track sometimes changes automatically the song or it restart the song a lot of time without that i touch the phone. I already had the plug in problem too when i had wm 6.5 on the phone, but the problem were not the "music shuffling", but the problem were that the phone autodialed the last number called by me.
Someone has the same issue? Any solutions?
I've had audio jack problems as well.
I use a mp3 player from the Android Market called Tiny Player.
Occasionally while playing songs in Tiny Player through headphones or an FM transmitter, the Android music player will start up and begin playing a random song while Tiny Player is still playing.
It must be something about the way that the audio jack is designed to work with the HTC headphones that have the in-line mic built into them for calling. Some regular headphones must be causing a connection to be made which makes the phone think that a button on the HTC headphones has been pressed.
I can usually solve this problem by unplugging and re-plugging the headphones, or turning the plugh in the jack a little bit.
this has come up fairly often over the yrs, to a greater or lesser extent. I have a pair of senheissers which do exactly what you describe, but only on winmo roms. My other phones (tested four or five pairs, cheap and expensive) all work fine. the senheissers work fine on wp7 and android.
Odly enough two (that i can think of) other threads like this also mentioned senheisers, , , what you using, OP?
@samsamuel: i'm using android MIUI.
@huggs: sometimes i do like you, i unplug and replug the cable to solve the problem, but i want to permanently solve this problem, even at the cost of replacing the input jack, you say that it solves?
Its also worth removing the battery and then looking into the jack to see it there is any debris in there, remove with a pin
Same problem, except my Android powered HD2 also likes to randomly dial the last person I talked to when I have the headphones connected. These are the original HTC phones that came with the device. Today it managed to leave my boss eight voicemails. Nice. Fortunately, my boss has a sense of humor and it'll probably be OK. What can I do to prevent this from happening again?
I have a problem with 3.5 mm jack. When I turn on the headset, the phone restarts. And the problem is not with all handsets
I think I found a fix for misbehaving headphones:

If anyone has used this please comment.
@imrazor : Thank you very much, I'm using it for two days and since I installed it I've had no problems.
Mentioned this on another thread as well.
Problem exists on both 2.3.6 Motoblur and Latest Jokersax ICS Kang so I'm not thinking a software issue just yet.
I can play music through the loudspeaker without a problem, how ever, when I plug the headphones in, all I get is massive distorted mess of what is playing (I have to turn the radio/amp up fairly high to be able to hear this)
The phone is detecting the presence of headphones.
Any ideas? Broken socket?
try different headphone and check the audio settings (just in case the EQ is all messed up on headset mode) and also if problem remains then while plugin rotate the jack or twist cable a little and see if audio output changes.
That happen to me sometimes. My problem is because I have my phone in my pocket all the time and little dust get in to the plug so I need to clean it.

Did you get resolve your problem. Same problem is there with my hand set as well. I'm using 2.3.4 with build 4.5.91. The problem persists while in call as well.
Try cleaning you headphone socket with alcohol ( spirit).
Okay, I've semi-solved it.
Its clean as a whistle, and has been alcohol'd so that wasn't it.
I tapped it on the back where the jack sits, and it came back to life... I suspect dry/bad soldering to the board to be a cause.
I plug and unplug the socket 2/3 times a day as I use it with my car radio (I do have the official car kit, but the car charger bit broke, and the audio out from the car kit is very bad and also doesn't send my calls through the speakers without disabling loudspeaker while driving !)
