X1 thinks headphones are plugged in (no sound) - XPERIA X1 General

Hi,
My X1 would not play and sounds or when i rang someone i could not hear a thing and neither could they, the same applied for recieving calls the X1 would ring but when i answer there is no sound.
It was like this all day so when i got home i reinstalled generic rom from SEUS but all i noticed after that was the headphone icon apperared on the top of the screen, it wasnt there before,
so after reinstalling ROM the problem was the same so i plugged in my headphones and took them back out and all was fine! i wasted hours setting up my X1 again just because it thought the headphones were in.
however today the same happened out of the blue so i knew what it was, i plugged in my headphones and uplugged and all was fine and so far so good.
WHY does it do this, i never use the jack, always bluetooth so why all of a sudden, also why did it not show me the headphone icon (i did have SEX1 icons installed)
all back to normal and my X1 is fast again so probably a bonus for me. i thought i would share this so noone goes through the same process as me and can find this tread and solve the issue.
Have anyone else come across this?

I had the same problem but they fixed it with a new audio jack when I sended my x1 in for repair for cracks in the case. Never had the problem after that again. So if the problem appears again youcan send it too SE and they will fix it under warrenty

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=515487 its a common problem

same problem here, I sent a e-mail to SE support they said me that I had to update my device, otherwise send my device to SE support. I updated ROM Generic R3A then hard reset, and everything goes cool. Try it and then let me know

thanks for your replies,
its been fine for months never had the issue before but still no issues yet

Qtek S100 "no sound"

Hi everybody
Since yesterday, unfortunly my Qtek S100 doesn`t have any sound output (after using it with earphones as mp3 player). Somebody had the same problem or knows how to resolve?
i forgot...
i forgot: i am also unable to make phonecalls, because also the phone speaker gives no output...
had the same problem myself recently. Mine was due to the headphone socket switch getting stuck (It still thinks your headphones are plugged in). trying plugging in your headphones again and removing them. Sorted my prob

Perhaps resolved...
If your HTC has no sound output (after using earphones)...
>>connect your earphones and make an soft reset...
>>unplug (with the HTC oterwise started) your phones and voila: the speaker will work again (perhaps only for some time... after you have to try the procedure again :-(

This happened to me with My O2 XDA Mini 4 weeks after I got the phone and I never used a headset. I had to send it in for repair and they replaced the speaker. When I got it back the speaker worked but the volume was VERY low. After the second repair and second speaker everything worked for 2 months. Speaker Low again. I sent it in for repair for the third time. I am told that they replaced the phone after long phone conversations with O2. I should get it back in two days. We'll see how long this one lasts for.

faulty Speaker

Hi everyone
My o2 mini speaker dead last week , does not work at all , I installed the image but no diffrence , any suggestion ????
I also had a problem with the speaker. It occured after using the headset. The problem could be solved with plugging the headset again and detaching it with a quick movement (the phone was working cerrectly with the headset plugged). Don't know what is the reason, but sometimes after long use of the headset the problem turns up after unplugging the set. Try this, maybe it helps you too.
hi
i read about it somewhere in the forum.
its just because of a switch inside.
no need to worry about a major problem.
just like what Szilu said, plug it in and out firmly.
hope this helped!
regards
chester
-edit-
oh and its not due to long usage
i suffered this situation too...but O2 Centre can fix it within 1 day...real quick!
it's just because of the very FRAGILE audio jack that is installed in ur MINI. When u unplugged ur headset, the phone "doesn't know u unplugged the jack" so it assumes that it is still plugged in...so no sound will be channeled to the speakers...
try on...put in ur headset again, u will hear everything thru headset but not the speakers.
what u can do is VISIT O2 Customer Centre...small case...dun worry!
Same problem with me too
hi. i'm having the same problem - and - i don't have any JAM service centre near my place....or in the entire state....so i was planning to open it up and see if i can fix it from the inside...

Thanks for saving me a few hundred dollars, hassle, downtime
Wow, what a resource this has been! I came here months ago when I wanted to upgrade my system. Now it just saved me who knows how much in service costs. My speaker stopped working as well and I was sure my device was completely messed up until I checked this forum.
I tried what you suggested and it worked perfectly! I had to plug the headset out twice, I guess the first time I didn't do it fast enough. You really have to give a quick tug.
Thanks for the valuable advice!
P.S. Now I have lost my excuse to upgrade to the imate K-Jam. Oh well, all in good time. :lol:
Put my money where my comment is
I've made a donation to the forum to thank you for this helpful advice.
Ok, so I didn't donate as much as I would have paid a technician but...hey, it's something

No Sound, slight buzzing in speaker

hey all. My Friend had a problem with his Prophet where there was no sound on the internal speakers on his Prophet, but a headset worked ok.
He hard reset his Prophet to no avail, but when he asked me, I remembered a similar problem on the E200 (or Canary).
It seems that the headset socket is a bit sensitive, and there's some kind of trigger letting it know when the headset is in. This trigger sometimes gets stuck when the jack is removed, as if there was still a headset plugged in > hence no sound thru speakers.
Solved it this time by plugging the headset in, and taking it out using pressure at various angles. I've also read about toothpicks being used on the Canary, but I'd advise against anything that could break of inside of, or damage (like a hair clip) your device.
anyway, the device fall down?
No, it works fine now.
Great!!! now all you have to do is enjoy the time you lose with your device.
Have fun! :lol:
imate JAMin Built-in Speaker hardware failure
I had to get my speaker hardware replaced.
Bad news!
Mine is back for repair due to speaker issues. Sounds like I am not alone ....
And the really bad news is that apparently the replacement audio parts are not in stock - it could take a month plus before I get my device back
It's already been 3 weeks.
This sucks.
Be patient.
Now I have some problems with my device and all I have to do is forget the device for a day and after that put all the attention on it.
Hope you can find the right place to fix it. Good luck!!!
Looks like i have this problem too. I noticed the speaker have some crackling sound sometimes and sometimes it's ok. But today it went dead. tried inserting the jack but no result.
repair neccessary
My Prophet (Orange SPV M600). Is back at Orange to be repaired fr the same problem also.
The speaker on the back of the Prophet started to get dissorted and after two days stopped working at all.
Two days later I found that if you tap on the back of the device, it sometimes worked again. Always only for a minute or so.
In the Orange store they took the device apart to check the connectors. No luck.
Now it has been sent for repairs to??????
Let you know when it has been fixed.

You can do a hard reset to go back to factory defaults (includes the register).
If then still you have no sound, I'm afraid you will have to return it to O2 for repairs.
btw, a hard reset you can perform by holding both the camera and the communications button on the left hand site of the device and then to stick the stylus in the rest hole at the bottom.
The device will prompt you to hit the send button to format your device. This is a hard reset.
Good luck!

Did you have any luck with your speakers problem?
I am facing the same problem and, although I reset it (and tried applying a previous backup which was working fine), I am still unable to make it work... I have to admit that I was playing with the registry a couple of days back, but I don't think that I caused anything by doing so.
Please update on your situation... I have an Orange UK SPV M600.

Its a well known hardware problem, I got Orange to give me a new phone, lets see if this one lasts more than a month.
Mine has been repaired by Orange.
Audio circuit replaced say the repair note........
Works like a charm again.
Robin
thanks guys for all this, but i need to know what to do with it. i am in cyprus and i dont know who represents 02 here. how can i send it to 02? how long it will take? please answer me as soon as you can
thanks in advance
Thanks a lot!!! This worked for me....!!!!
I had to insert and take out the headset a few times and then it worked just fine!!
Yeah, inserting the heaphone jack ten times worked the first time, a week later it did not work. Returning my JAMin tomorrow
kind of sucks ...

Welcome tot he forum
Hoping that is not a hardware related problem I would do a reflash to try to solve it
Read in the Wiki on how to
Hope it helped,
That happens one day in the car travelling home that the sound suddly stop working i restart the xda and everything (not reflash) but nothing work i will try to reflash it because i think is not a hardware problem
is the first time i try to reflash my pda but i have a problem when i try to downgrade it that shows error 260 and i dont know how to fix it
ok, i fix the problem with upgrade xD my english is not good at all and i missunderstand some of the instructions, but after read 100k of threats and 5 hours trying things now is upgrading to tomal rom i hope that this will fix the problem i had before
after reflashing the ce two times the sound is still not working, i am updating now the radio from 1.09 to 1.15, the stereo speakers make a little bit of noise when a sound is played, the headphones dont work, the phone speaker works propertly, and the microphone works but only send the voice to the phone speaker ¿? i dont know why happens this last thing
radio updated and the problem continues anybody can help?
I think it´s a hardware related problem
Try to take it to a repair center
Good luck,
I have the same problem. When a sound is played it just clicks and that's all. I had a problem with my ribon cable and I took it out. I've done that before (it's my second cable failing), so I knew what I was doing. I was off for a about a month untill I got a now cable. When I put it back together, I had no sound, just that click thing. I can't take it to a repair center. If anyone has a solution, please share.
I also found that my camera does not work. It says Failed to initialize camera. 36001:100:1. I tried a different rom, but still have the problem.
Also I tried to make a phone call (I'm not using it as a main phone, that's why I just found that out) and I can hear the other person, but they can't hear me.

i also check my camera after reading your comment and i also have the same problem, next month (because this month i will travel and i cant do it) i will send it to repair a tell you what the solution could be
PD: orb3000 muchas gracias por ser tan atento
I have good news. Something happened. I dont know what i did... but i got my sound back (and camera. main camera at least).
As you I flashed the rom, then the radio rom and I still got the problem. So I thought I'll leave it like that untill I find a solution. And I thought.. well i can at least play some games on it and I downloaded Archibald. I put it on the phone. Started it and ?! I had sound. Again I dont know if I did something before that, but I got it working. I'll attach the game, maybe it did something. Give it a try.
Again I have no idea what I did. It might have some bad connections somewhere. I remember I had the same problem (either with the Universal or the Wizard) but dont remember how I fixed it.
Here is a link for the game:
i install it but the miracle didnt happens i also will try to remove the battery it have on the motherboard to make a cmos clear (like in a normal computer). Lucky you i will keep trying
I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't if it matters but my small mb battery is dead. Apperantly it died during the month the battery was out. Everything works except that when I do a soft reset, the clock resets too.
I have these problems too, does anyone know the specification of the mobo battery?
I have the sound problem but mine doesnt work even with headphones in and i also have a problem with the keys being activated when the screen is in a certain position. Could all of these problems be casued by the ribbon cable?Rob
As far as my expirience goes with the ribon cable, it commands the touch, the lcd, mic, speaker on the lcd part. the keyboard has it's own cable. and it snaps to the motherboard. maybe it's loose or something. For the battery I got http://cgi.ebay.com/Dopod-D900-900-T-mobile-MDA-IV-Qtek-9000-backup-Battery_W0QQitemZ350170469398QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGPS_Accessories_Cablesthis on ebay. But mine looks a little different.
also happens to me when i make a soft reset the clock also restart could be all because the mb battery is dead?
OK, we are getting somewhere Since my sound got back, whenever I reset I get to keep my current time. So maybe my mb battery fixed itself or charged.
I am pretty sure now that is what's causing the problems. If you could disassemble your pda, try playing with the battery. See if it is not loose or something. Try to short-circut it. Get a something form metal and touch both pins. Also try leaving your PDA charging over night.
I hope you fix it since I cant seem to find that kind of battery over the internet.

Hero LED's don't work any more

Hi everyone,
up to today, I was totally happy with my HTC Hero (unbranded).
However, the LED's (both on top and the trackball) do not show any sign of function any more.
The phone has not dropped and was not exposed to heat or anything.
First I thought this might be a software bug, but even after a hard reset, the LED's don't come up at all any more (even not if charging the phone).
Anyone else here with a problem like that? Any solution yet?
I almost can't imagine this is a hardware fault but on the other hand if the hard reset doesn't fix it, what could?
Thanks for your help,
Chris
Hi.
I can ask the very same question too... I have had the HTC Hero since the friday before yesterday and after a couple of days the LED's simply stopped working. I had thoughts about trying a factory reset but with your posting it seems it would be in vain... :-(
So yeah... count me up on this one...
UPDATE:
Today it is Sunday and the time here in Sweden is 22:05 and I had to do my very first hardcore hardware reset (HOME+BACK+POWER) since every radio in the phone simply stopped working. After the reset was done the led's still won't light up when charging...
The LED at the top doesn't light up for missed calls/texts/emails anymore (the trackball still glows)... although it does still flash for batt.low/charging it doesn't for anything else... I'm pretty sure it used to... or am I mistaken??
mine died 2 days ago, also did a hard reset and still nothing....today my headphone jack stopped working, just plays the music through speakers and ignores the headphones totally :/ not amused :/

You just made me realize it's the same with mine
- LED's don't work (top and trackball)
- Button lights don't work
- headphone jack doesn't work any more either
So all these things seem to belong together...

What software have you got installed? Is this a similar thing like TasKiller that killed the clock so Alarms didn't work?
Then again, you said you did hard resets... But if you did a hard reset, it shouldn't be the software of the phone as thats back to normal.
Try taking the memory card out, only thing I can think of!

This happens when a bluetooth connection has been made. It ignores the headphone jack. Close the connection in bluetooth settings and it ill be fine.
Don't quote me on this, but I think I remember seeing an option in the phone setting section that controls the track ball and what not. It may be worth having a look.

Well... no :-/.
BT isn't switched on, 3,5mm headphones aren't even recognized after a hard reset any more.
This is not a software thing as it seems, at least not one the user can repair on his own.

Yeah, you're right, there is an option for that. I've switched that back off and on a thousand times before and after hard resetting the device, that doesn't help unfortunately.

Yeah... I only got standard soft like shazam and streamfurious installed. Then after the hard reset, only stock software was on it of course...
Seems like it's a hardware defect or something the user cannot influence software-wise. May hard-resetting doesn't reset everything in the phone, who knows. I even took out SIM and SD card, no luck.
However this is a bug HTC should look at closely, people are complaining in several forums and it seems like I'm not the only one with this issue...
i don't use BT, never turned it on and just checked, it's obviously off :/ don't remember coming across a trackball option in settings, but Notification option is on :/
let's just assume that it's not our doing since so many people have same 2 problems
Mine packed up last night must be a tech issue I think heat
sorry for asking a silly question though. is the led supposed to flash on missed calls or messages? cause the only time mine works is when charging.
I have the same problem. after a few days the headphone simply wasn't recognized. And at the same time the LED's and trackball lights were broken.
Hard reset didn't work.
It was after I rooted the phone.
How was that with you?
For the headphone problem I found a workaround. This switch-widget turns the headphone back on and the speaker off.
http://code.google.com/p/toggleheadset/
same here, check topic Q&A but here also the alarm doesnt work correctly...djeezes;..
same here!
well i have the same problem whit the LED's.... just stop working aften 3-4 days of use
maybe we should all write to HTC to complain as a group, this definitley looks like a manufacturing fault to me , esp as it is happening so soon after buying and using
