BB Tour 9630 :: Audio Volume Resetting Via Headphone Jack
Feb 18, 2010
I thought that maybe this problem was related to the .484, but have since installed a .419 based hybrid (Driphter v6.3) and I'm still having the same problem.
What is happening is I am using the headphone jack with an aux cable to plug my BB into an external powered speaker. After every song, the volume will reset itself to a lower volume. Once I click one of the volume buttons, it returns to it's previous volume, but does this after EVERY SINGLE SONG. This occurs while playing music in Slacker, GrooveShark, AND the BB Music player, so it is not related to the software that I am using.
I have checked the options in the media player, and enabled/disabled AUDIO BOOST over and over again and it doesn't make a difference, though every time I enable audio boost, it shows the popup warning about volume levels, I select the box that says "Don't Show me this again", yet, everytime I enable or the audio boost this message still pops up.
This problem is driving me insane, it is impossible to listen to music unless I reset the volume after EVERY SONG. This is a replacement 9630 from Sprint, is it possible that it is the phone itself? Should I get ANOTHER replacement?
Audio jack on my Tour. I have used the headphones that come with the device, a generic set of ear buds and a car adapter. Never had any problem with any of them until this morning. Plugged in the BB headset while at the gym and they never engaged. Music was playing over internal speaker but could not get it to come through headphones.I switched to the generic set but same thing happened. On the way home, same thing happened with the car adapter. I have tried wiggling the jacks when putting them in, battery pull and making sure everything except defaults are closed with no luck.
I am trying to figure out if there is a way I can enable audio at the device while the headphone jack is in use. The reason is, I am using my headphone jack to record the call to an external recorder. But I of course need to be able to hear the caller too. Is there a way?
Having problems with RAZR and the audio out abilities? I was on a plane a few weeks ago, put my headphones in and couldn't figure out why I had no sound... turns out all my neighbors heard it cause it was coming out of the speaker... Then when I got back to the US last week, I put it in my car dock and it doesn't send audio to the cable and plays only thru the speaker as well.
I really have two issues involving the headphone jack. When I plug the headphone in, the volume will occasionally drop to zero and then no longer go up. A power off fixes this. A second thing I discovered is that sometimes the microphone does not work after plugging in my headphones. I first noticed this when I was trying to use the speakerphone in my car with the line out through my stereo.I started using voice control and I noticed that the microphone was not picking up any sound. I could tell this because of the visual waveform display.
I'm really confused. The only headphones that fit into the 3.5mm version of my tour are the ones that came with the product. When I went to the Verizon store, they seemed dumbounded and said that only specific models work with the earlier version of the tour.
So my iphone 4 is stuck in headphones mode. Can of compressed air works like a charm! But get this: Whenever I blow into the headphone jack, it goes straight back into headphones mode. Any idea?
The receptacle the receives the 3.5mm plug in the side of my Tour has suddenly stopped working. Worked Friday, not yesterday. I have tried the ubiquitous battery pull (several times) but no dice.
Tried it with two different headsets, and those headsets on a different devices, so I am sure it is the receptacle.
I now have 3 programs that can reset my device - Quickpull, Quicklaunch and Meterberry.I am curious if they all do the same thing, or is one better than the other.I am definitely keeping QL and was wondering if I even need the other 2? I do like MB as it notifies you when your mem, battery etc is low.
I'm having an odd problem that started about a month ago - all the videos I record on the tour have no audio. I checked the options and there isn't a "mute" setting - I've changed the audio profile and that doesn't help.I can't figure out why it's recording the video with no sound. The voice recorder works fine so its not the microphone.
Can someone please explain the details of this phone's 3.5mm audio jack? I read somewhere that you need to use a dongle or something? How does this work? I searched for more details but with no luck. I might buy this phone today. I was looking into using the audio jack in this phone to connect to the audio jack in my car, to play music directly off the phone. Has this been tried by any of Samsung Jack's owners?
i have noticed recently that after i receive a video or txt msg with sound that after i view the msg and get a call or use my ptt and hang up it plays the sound from the msg. it stops after i do a restart but what cases it?
Anyone please tell me how you can load an audio book onto your bb. I have books download in Itunes. But so for some reason they won't load onto my phone. I have tried using the media manager on my desktop. But when I open it up the area is grayed out,
I love using Pandora while I'm in the car, but it's a battery drain. I use a normal 3.5mm plug for the audio, and all is good. But when I try to charge my Tour at the same time as using it for audio, I get a terrible screech over the music.
I've been using my Moto Droid, running Android 2.2.2 for some time now. Up until recently, I've been able to use it to listen to Pandora and mp3s loaded onto the phone. Now, any time I plug a set of headphones into the audio jack, the audio is really distorted. It sounds like a channel is out or something, and this happens across all volume levels. It pretty much sounds like you're listening to music underwater. Doesn't matter if it's streaming adio through Pandora or mp3 audio. When I unplug the headset (any headset, mind you) and go to external speaker, the audio is fine.
I just bought the Blackberry Tour and so far I love the phone except for the volume issue. It has horrible volume. I was wondering if there was a way to raise the volume while you are talking on the phone with and without the earpiece it came with?
When I make a call there is a box near the volume that has 5 x's in it. It reminds me of dice. Any clue what it can be? I was going to go Verizon store tomorrow.
Are you supposed to be able to see light if you look down into the headphone jack? It really doesn't bother me but I just noticed it and was wondering if it was par for the course.
So I got to work this morning and tried to listen to my tunes on my iPhone and I plugged my headphones in and the sound was still coming from speakers. I've tried three pairs of headphones and tried mine on other phones they don't work on mine but on my friends iPhone it's fine. Anyone know what the problem may be? I'm using a 2g 3.1.2 jailbroken not unlocked.
I have a standard headphone jack that worked on my 8520, but it doesn't work on my 9900.Does the phone ONLY accept the headphone/mic that comes with the phone? Which is a bit bad, as I think ALL phones that have headphone sockets, allow you to plug your own headphones in them - even down to big clunky headphones.
My z5 compact seems to have a problem with the headphone jack. It seems my phone think I disconnects my headphones when i twist the plug a bit. Is it there any other option than to return it? My guess is that its hardware related.
So my iPhone 3gs, when I plug in headphones, they won't go all the way into the jack, meaning the sound coming out of the headphones isnt what it normally sounds like. also, when i then unplug the headphones, and go to change the volume on the phone, it says that the headphones are still connexted even though they arent.
I just bought a new E72, and im noticing something, whenever i try putting in a headphone jack, the phone restarts, and when it doesnt, the sound comes through with cracks,also when texting fast, i notice it misses some keys and i have to type them over,
When I plug my head set in to the phone, it does nothing.(i.e. will keep playing audio out of the speakers) Here is where it gets weird , when I upgrade from 4.7 to the leaked 5.0 the headset jack works perfectly. But if downgrade back to 4.7. Which is what I would like to do due to all the problems with the leaked version. The head phone jack stops working again.
Tried multiple headphones and use aux inputs in two cars for pandora stream. After 1 year of use sounds only comes out of one speak. I can fiddle with jacks and it does work if but I have to lean the phone on the jack for consistancy.
I am having the same issue as many people with the fingerprint scanner. But I found a new issue over the weekend.My headphone jack doesnt work to listen to music. When I plug it in, I can hear that little click in the headphonebut when I go to play music it just plays it through the phone speaker.
My headphone jack stopped working mysteriously after I updated my phone to Motorola's latest software. Please see post by shawnsinclair - I am having same problem. I have tried restarting phone multiple times, tried various sets of headphones, brought it into Sprint store for troubleshooting, taken out battery for longer than 5 minutes, etc. I am very dissapointed that Motorola has said they will not send me another phone while investigating the problem with this one
My xperia z3+ doesnt shows the headphone icon in the notifaction icon bar.....i am using the headphone that came with it..It shows smartconnect icon on plugging the headset firsttime and when you dont assign any event for that it doesnt shows any icon on plugging in..Check the snapshot for xperia sl( showing headphone icon) and xperia z3+ (showing smartconnect icon) with the same headphone.
My phone (lumia 800) thinks all the time that I have headphones plugged in no mater if it is true or not. And when I connect normal headphones, that worked before the issue started, it opens Tellme (voice control). I've already tried hard restart but it didn't fix the problem.
