So, here's the deal,
The sound works fine when using the speakers, but, when I plug in ANY headphones, while it does recognize them, the sound is so low that, even in a completely silent room I can barely hear anything.
The volume is at Max, I have cleaned the headphone jack many times.
Important information : I started when I flashed a cutom rom. I thought it maybe was a software problem, so I restore the stock rom, but the problem persist.
Please help me guys, Music is my life haha
Thanks in advance!
sounds like a break in the connection of the port...
no easy fix unfortunately, are you sure there isnt anything, lint or anything, maybe jammed down in there?

Maybe there is some trouble with your Headphone input detection. Have you tried to use a headphone with it? Do you have sound then?
Thanks for the answer!
Yes, when i put my headphones in, i can hear the voice of the "caller" and i can hear music....but when i put the headphones out again, i cant hear him.
So i thought, perhaps my phone thinks that there are always my headphones plugged in.... but my music player plays sound through the speakers....strange?!
whats going on?! is there a different phone.apk i could try? but i flashed many FW and nothing solved the problem...
or does an app exist here i can test my external ear speaker?!
I vaguely remember a CM7 issue wherein you had to toggle mute to trigger the voice to work on calls. I'm sure your problem is different, since it's happening across multitple firmwares, but it's food for thought.
I would have also assumed your phone was thinking headphones were plugged in when they weren't. But if music plays through the rear speaker just fine, this must not be the case.
Whatever it is, good luck!
Does nobody know a method or a app with what i can test my "Earspeaker" ?
I have the same issue with my i9000M and have been unable to determine the cause. There must be a way to completely wipe the phone and restore a stock ROM in order to reset whatever setting controls handset speaker volume.
psss... noone is looking??? it is top secter Samsung's procedure, do not share:
1. factory wipe
2. flash stock firmware
3. factory wipe
I've got this exact issue.. proximity sensor is also broken and locks up the phone. I disabled it with a patch - but my earpiece is non-functional on stock.
Ideas? Hardware defect?
[Sorry to bump.]

Try Turning the volume up and open another music app .
Erm ... no Tried almost everything....players...youtube...flash
.no sound even in the android(ringtones , etc.)...Ive noticed that it didn't charging also... is it possible to be drom clockwork ?( highly doubdt that )but once i reach enough battery percentage ill install the latest recovery...im stuck i WebOS for now :/
The only thing I would think to do is flash the ROM you are using again and see if it fixes anything. But you said its with all ROMs which doesnt make sense. Maybe its an app you have installed thats turning volume off. Its hard to say
I'm flashing it and installing NOTHING but google apps ... same sh*t :<
Oh ... btw no more sound in headphones too.
I think i found the Issue... its like the tablet constantly thinks that there is something in the jack ( headphones for example...) Is the any way to activate the speakers even with jack in the 3.5 port ?
Use the old sound drivers maybe
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
My old Pre Plus used to have that happen. Made by the same company so go figure. Lol. Try putting the headphones in and out until it triggers the connector and goes back to speaker sound. Don't be too rough with it though. I don't know if it will be the same but on my old phone, you plugged the headphones in and pulled out with some slight pressure towards the front. If your Touchapad thinks there is headphone in there when there's not, you just have to trigger that connection so it goes back. You can try cleaning the headphone port too if possible. There could be dust in there.
I've tried the in/out yesterday...it dint't worked. Today it hitter me that I've tried only cm9 and 10 based ROMs...so I've downloaded the classic nerd and everything worked fine...but I don't really like the ROM....Can anyone provide a link for the old sound drivers , pretty please :good:
My tablet constantly thinks that there are headphones attatched...but have no problems in classic nerd nor webos :/
As a temporary fix, try an app named SoundAbout.
I have a rooted Verizon HTC One that I recently just got. Love the phone but one morning I discover that my volume level on literally everything is extremely low. The headphone jack will produce only a whisper of noise and when i turn the volume all the way up I can hear the music distort as if it was extremely loud but its barely even able to hear. The front speakers of the phone refuse to work with system sounds and media sounds and all the sliders are up. I've tried this on multiple ROMS, Liquid, Cyanogen, and on multiple updates, JB, KK, etc. and nothing seems to fix the issue. The speaker works I know for a fact because I can make and recieve phone calls but its a great deal quieter than before. But as for the ringer and notification sounds, or any kind of media nothing comes out of the front speakers. I'm at a complete loss. All volume+ apps don't do a damn thing in helping and I've ravaged Google looking for a solution and can't find any. It may help to know that the bottom speaker would cut out every once in a while the last week before this happened. It also stopped working on a KK ROM. if anyone could help I would greatly appreciate. I'm just about to give up.

Try to reset to 100% stock. If it doesnt work then its probably an hardware issue.
Hi, so at first, i'm pretty newbie here and english isn't my primary language, so, sorry if i'm at the wrong place for this or if i'm difficult to understand..
So, i have an HTC One M7, and my problem is that the headphones jack won't recognize any headphones anymore.. I tried with 3 different headphones, i tried with 3 different roms (4.4.3 Stock, 4.4.4 CandyKat, 4.4.3 ViperOne), cleaned the lint that was stuck in the jack, and it doesn't matter, the jack won't work.
If i plug the headphones, the sound will just keep playing through the speakers.
I have found an alternative, which i guess you already know : Using the " SoundAbout " app to force the jack recognizing the headphones, and that way, it works perfectly. So, i don't know if this is hardware or software related. Or both...
The problem is that i'm now obligated to have " SoundAbout " constantly running in background, eating battery, taking place in status bar, and the WORST : If i set SoundAbout to make the headphones working, and if i unplug the headphones, the sound won't come through the speakers. I have to go back into the app to force the speakers working.. And vice-versa.
This is driving me nuts. The dude who selled me that One told me it was an update problem that should be fixed in the next OTA update (With android 5), i guess he was lying because it doesn't matter which rom is installed.
The notification front led never light up too.. Idk if broken or just bugged out.
Anyway, i'm begging for your help, this is an outstanding problem i NEVER had with any phones in the past (And god knows i had a lot of phones), i just don't know what to try next.. Maybe changing kernel but i guess it wouldn't change anything..

It sounds like a hardware problem to me ..the only real fix would be done by HTC
you could of coarse use Bluetooth headphones
Maybe, but i don't want to send my phone in repair service for weeks or months.. I'm not even sure if the problem appeared itself or if the guy who had it before me did it.. So idk if they would repair it
The confusing thing is that with SoundAbout, the headphones works perfectly.. Could it be the jack sensor that is broken ?
Also, for the notification led, i saw it blinking red when i was at low battery, finally.. But the led is very weak, can't notice it if i'm not in a dark place..

turn around time for HTC repair is under 10 days for most problems. the top speaker contains a lot of stuff. I would try sending it back
Well, the issue is gone now.. When i plugged my headphones this morning, the phone recognized them sometimes, i jiggled around the jack and now it works like it should everytime
I guess there was a pin or something in the jack output that was stuck, at least it's working now.
Thanks !
I was using cm and at first i thought it's the problem with cm build so i flashed stock rom. That didnt help. Speaker is not dead, there is sound when phone is ringing but there is no sound while playing media and during calls so i figure out it looks like phone is thinking that headphones are connected but they are not. Plugging and unplugging headphones couple of times didnt help. Putting phone in safe mode didnt help, tried to blow headphone jack with vacuume cleaner (i have nothing better) and it didnt help. I am out of options, any ideas guys?
I cannot believe, it worked:
