[SOLVED] Headphone Jack not working right - HTC Wildfire S

Hey Guys,
I've got Problems with my headphone jack.
It does not work with every headphones and even with a good working one (yes, it's ugly iPod headphones..) it may not work, if the plug is turned or other "unusual" things happen..
Is this a general problem (cause it's from the beginning - but not as bad as it's right now) or is this only my device?
Will the warranty help or should I just accept that?
Any experiences?
Thanks and greetings form Germany

You checked if you have rubbish in the jack ? Headphone's goes completely in the jack ?

Which ROM you are using? MIUIv4 SnapSeries has headphones problem. Use toggleheadet2 app from market to resolve it.

I'm using dudemans CM10 build (I'm the guy who wrote the brightness tipp to you )
Mhh the dirt thing could be the reason - I did not think about that
But how will I get it out?
Any ideas?

Oh man, I feel kind of silly I didn't think of this
I tried with a needle and a bunch of dust came out
Nawesome..
Never mind - the Problem is solved
But now the plug slips out with the lightest pull, but thats better than bevore.
Thanks :good:
Edit: Can i mark this thread as solved any way?

Hadware or Software Issue?

I have the dash for two weeks now (wm6.5)... about 3 days ago and out of the blue the lcd started to show this white scanlines. It was just placed next to the pc and connected by the usb cable when i noticed the problem (it wasn´t phisically damaged). I hard reseted it...nothing. Installed wm6 and wm5 and nothing.. the lines are still there. I am pretty upset with this matter
Is it the lcd or something else..?
How can i fix it and prevent this to happen again?
Does anybody know if this problem is covered by the warranty and under which arguments?
Thanks.
Here is a picture of the screen so you can get an idea...

Maybe something is loose regarding your lcd (hardware), If you haven't dropped maybe you should give a shot with your warranty and probably you will get a new dash
sure you have problem with your display.you must change,or if it is new go to store,for change.good luck,and a happy cristmanth
if you say you already did some hard reseting then it's a hardware problem.. if the warranty does not cover it then try to disarm it following the instructions that you can find in this forum.. suerte amigo!
Thanks guys for the advices. I purchased a new lcd, relaced it and now it works right, seems like the problem is solved. I hope i don´t get any more problems in the future cause the dash has everything i want in a mobile phone.

Problem with screen calibration?

Hi All
I got my Desire yesterday and played around a bit with it. What I am noticing is that the screen seems to be a little bit uncalibrated. For example, when I want to click on App1, I am clicking on App2 which is underneath it. Seems like my click is effectively being hit on the screen lower than where I intended. Hope I made myself clear.
Can anybody tell me if this happens and if there is anyway to fix that?
Thanks

As there isnt a calibration utility on the desire i think that you may have to contact your provider or htc to find out whats wrong.
aww
provider you mean the shop I bought the phone from?

Yes or if its on a contract to a network like t-mobile you should contact them
ok thanks
Its not that bad actually, maybe I have to get used to it. Thought there was some setting to fix it. If it gets annoying will contact the shop.

It can be a bit different i felt like this when i first got my desire but i have now got used to it!
actually its not a fault in the touch screen cause everything works, its just when I have a list of apps and I want to click lets say on the third one, the fourth one gets launched, and not always happens.
As I said, maybe since I am new to it all so its maybe my fingers that have to get used to it.
I do not think its a fault with the device actually
I had exactly same problem, when I switched to FroYo no problems, so software issue
Hi Benko
thanks for the message. So I guess I will have to wait for the Froyo update, or else I have to root my device, however since I am a complete newbie, I am quite afraid to do that.
Hopefully the new 2.2 will also allow for SD card installations!
You can try the new ROM update from HTC, if you don't have it, personally haven't tried it but maybe it will help
Serch for latest official rom(I believe it is 1.21.405.2)
try calibrating the keyboard, I think it calibrates the screen for other inputs as well.
How do I know which ROM I have presently?

Serious Screen Problems

Hi guys
This is my first thread, in this forum. Personally, i've never moded my cell phone, but recently attempted to root and mod my wildfire s.
I succeeded, this forum was really helpfull!
Even before the mod, my screen was driving me crazy. In the begining it took my attempts to unlock the phone. Some other time, in the messages section, keypad would act on his own, literally Even if i typed "A" it would typed "enter" or anything else but "A". So I enabled touch trace to see what happens.Here is the thing, like i suspected, touchscreen's reactions are spoted away of the point i touch. Sometimes, two touch traces appear on the screen.. Some other times, its extremely difficult to unlock the screen, hang up the phone, or use the menu.. So that's the story. With the mod nothing changed..
Is it a hardware problem? Is it a software problem?
Thanks in advance.. :good::good:
PS: I use cyanogenmod 10
Only a couple of apps installed
PS: english is not my mother language so, maybe some unusual expressions and dictation could by used :angel:

i had this problem too:
It's not a big problem..
your hand is wet, and the screen also, but if you dry it with a polyester (of your t-shirt) it will work..
only dry the display and your hand
so..

Hi, ghost inputs is a known issue caused by the charger delivering incorrect voltage/amperes. Are you using the stock one ?

Yes im using the stock one. I ve never measured the output though.. I maybe check it tomorrow.. But the problem is constant and happening, not only when the device is plugged... The other thing is, there isnt only ghost inputs, there are freezings too. Or a thing, where ex: im trying to unlock the phone, so i slide to the side, and visually im almost unlocking it, but in real, nothing happens. Its still on lock screen.
any other?? im kinda desperate with this phone.. :crying:
Perhaps a recalibration might work.

yes, If re-calibration is not helping then you need to replace the digitizer. Am also suffering the same issue now. Just got my digitizer replaced two days before. But am still suffering from some issues regarding touch. Gonna have to recheck with the retailer

Recalibration was succesfull it didn't come up with any change though...

ITS a hardware problem
i'm pretty sure its an hardware problem,did your wfs ever fall down or get submerged in water ??
Have you tried another charger?

That issue applies while we try accessing the phone while it is charging , right ? I mean, the touch response will be strange while the phone is been charged. But, here the OP is having issues with the touch screen all the time (charging / not-charging) . And re-calibration didn't work too.

Right.. Recalibration wasn;t helpfull.. Im waiting your report about Digitiser replacement so ill get one and fix that matter.
Hope its screen's issue, and not some further hardware damaga
It will take another two days for him to find out and clarify the issue. If it is a digitizer issue or some other hardware issue, I will update the same here ASAP.

Nope, issue happens at all times due to residual current.

I thought this was the error in the first place i measured current and voltage on the output of the charger and it seems legit..
I did change the charger thoug. So i didnt know how to proceed on this one. The way im thinking of it right now, i might let the battery completely deplete and charge from the new one?

Broken WiFi and Bluetooth

Hi all. My phone felt on the floor from 1,5 metres and now I get errors while trying to switch on bluetooth or wifi. I wiped all, flashed stock rom with stock boot.img and already done all can I do in terms of software modifications.. Also I deassembled it to be sure any cable is disconnected. In fact seems that all is ok . Surely is an hardware fault but I don't know where wifi and bluetooth hardware is. Can anyone help me telling me where they are ? Maybe with a photo of the internal part of the hox to indicate them.. Maybe I didn't look with attention for a disconnected cable or a broken part..
Also my cpu is unable to go in deep sleep now..
Please help me guys
