QuestionI tried almost all of these and my phone is still in headphone mode. What do I do?Community AnswerIf nothing is working, you should consult the technical support department of your phone's manufacturer. There may be something easy they can do to fix it, or you may need to upgrade your phone.

QuestionI tried everything but it won't connect my earphone. What do I do?Rudy TothCommunity AnswerYou need to get yourself a can of compressed air along with good ventilation in the room to clean out the headphone jack connector. There also adaptors that connect to the primary jack to bring down the size to 3.5mm jacks being a female adapter. Radio Shack use to sell these but, since RS is no longer in business. You need to seek them elsewhere on line maybe to obtain which are cheap and reliable.

QuestionMy headphones sort of bounce out of the headphone jack, and sound stops or comes out of the phone itself sometimes, instead of the headphones. Is it a dirty headphone jack or a problem with the phone?Robert LupasCommunity AnswerIt can be either a dirty headphone jack or a problem with the phone. First, try to clean it using this tutorial. Then, if it still doesn't work, it might be a problem with the phone. Try scanning the phone for viruses (they can affect the sound output) and try hard rebooting it or even doing a total reset. If the problem is still unsolved, take it to get a professional service done.

QuestionWhen I move the plug of my headphone cord I hear brief static sounds, but recently if pulled lightly in a certain direction, parts of sound cut out completely. Is this an issue with the jack?CitylimitsCommunity AnswerThis is most likely an issue with your cable. This can happen when the cables are "scrunched up" too often. In the future, be careful not to scrunch them up too much and do not move the headphone jack when plugged in.
