Problem with headphone detection - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

I bought Redmi Note 8 and I'm having 2 issuea with it.
1. The touch skipping/delaying on bottom left edge during typing (?123 button?.
2. Headphone icon starts blinking soon as i plug in the jack, so what happens is I hear the audio from headphones for one second then speakers for other second and it keeps repeating.
Is anyone having these issues? Should I be worried if its a hardware issue? Please reply. Thanks.
Edit: I have found a way to work the headphones, I put the headphone pins half in so it detects the headphones then after a few seconds i hear a slight shutter sound in headphones, after that if i plug it all in it works completely fine.. I'm not sure if that's software or hardware issue.
SOLVED - Turns out I was using some out-dated handsfree with some TRS strips I'm not sure what the problem was but I just bought a new pair of handsfree and they seem to work totally fine.

I had a very similar issue with the headphones. It wasn't blinking and switching constantly like it did with you but it didn't detect the headphones at all occasionally and it played sound from speakers even if headphones were plugged in. I use the same fix as you and its now fine.

Bro I m facing the same issue the earphone jack icon is blinking but when I put Samsung earphone they workd fine but other earphones are blinking as same as you said earlier, so what should I do bro?

Earphone stereo problem

I have problem using samsung wave's earphones on my hp laptop. The sounds seems crackled and in mono audio types it becomes very faint.. Either i should partially plug earphones or select mono channel in vlc player but this messes up the audio quality. But in my bro's lg optimus earphones everything is fine.
The sound quality on my wave is excellent but on my laptop its bad.. Will I need some other samsung driver or is it a common problem?? My laptop sound driver is up to date...
Thanx in advance....!
This so common
i use my earphone with my laptop and sound is excellent
My brother tried it with his laptop and sound is crap
the solution was to use the earphone half plugged and half unplugged
look for easier understanding put your earphone in your laptop and play music
now sound is just crap
unplug your earphone slowly from your laptop until you find sound is fine
i hope you get what i meant
Best Regards
Yeah even i have that problem and the solution is Given by the Post above my post !! i think its due to the THREE Strips that u can see on the HeadPhone pin on the Wave earphone (All mic included earphones have three strips and ordinary earphones have only two) !!! But better use any other ordinary earphones !!! !! Cheers mate !!!!!!
Thanx for suggestions, but i have been managing from weeks the way u told(found on some hp forum) but problem is it spoils the bass effect and sound becomes irritating rather than pleasent.... so i asked if i could get some driver which could make good use of earphone hardware like the way its played on wave....
Anyways its better i'll get some other earphones..
you dont need drivers for a 3.5 mm audio jack!.....lol
the thing is that the jack is madein such a way!
a normal 3.5 mm jack will have 3 point pin!
1 common
2 left audio
3 right audio
but if you talk about phone they have 4 point pin1
1 common
2 left audio
3 right audio
4 mic
the problem is that each company manufactures
pins with different configuration!..(so that a samsung high end earphone will not play in lg or lower end phones)
and in our headphones second point from the wire end is the mic.....so if the pin is fully plugged in you loose proper sound and when half plugged the common is outside the pin point so you get the mono effect without bass!.....lol

[Q] Earphone jack inline control problem

Hi, I'm having trouble with my G3's earphone jack. When I plug in a pair of regular earphones (no mic, inline controls, etc.), the phone most of the times detects it wrongly and the little headphone icon in the status bar shows a headset (earphones with mic) and slight knocks will make it do stuff like start playing music, etc.
And now, I recently bought a pair of XiaoMi Pistons, earphones with mic and inline controls, but most of the time the inline controls don't work. At first I thought it's a problem with the XiaoMi earphones, but I tested it with the stock Quadbeats earphones that came with the phone and still same problem.
The first problem was a common one as I found many people has the same problem online, but the second...not really, so is it a common problem or just a problem with my phone and should send it in for servicing?
I'm on rooted stock Kitkat V10k-SEA-XX. Thanks

Xiaomi Note 5 PROBLEM

(PROBLEM) When i plug in my earphones that i have used on s6 and s7 edge work perfect on one ear i hear hissing sound and on the other ear i hear actual music played. The earphones were working perfectly like a month before when i bought the phone i tried different headphones but still the same problem. And solutions?
I am kinda thinking about this.. i was actually listening the radio on this pjone and the thing is it was used for antenna.. could that break the headphone jack? Is it just a software bug?

Headphone Jack Broken (Kinda)

So I have read about Z5P having headphone jack problems. So mine has started to that today. If I pressed on my headphone jack so hard it would detect the headphone but if I relased my finger it would detect that headphone is disconnected which is still connected.
So I reasearched and found out about soundabout and I tested it and it detects my headphones with it. And I also realised that headjack is a bit loose and my plugged in headphones can shake a little bit inside the jack. So I think this is hardware+software problem.
The think is headphone jack is definitely broken but why does it work with soundabout? Oh also if I shake the jack while headphone is connected it will also disconnect from soundabout but that is not bad as without it (at least it works).
I am also using the m-rom light build will that cause a issue?
I guess this phone is totally dead will never ever get support from someone considering the activity on this forum. Looking forward to replacing this piece of crap.

I replaced the headphone port and turned the problem off and then came back again after using the note that I rarely used headphones

A bit late replay but it seems that headphone jack quality on Z5P is just terrible.

Redmi Note 8 Microphone Problem

Anyone face the same problem?
I have a Boya BY-A100 External omni condenser microphone. I want to create an amateur home recording. for my bass trombone. The built-in microphone is too noisy and sensitive for me since I can hear "windy" sound when recording in my room, since there is no fan and silent enough. And there is vehicle sound which just passed in front of my house that can be heard clearly in my recording (rather than my trombone).
When I plug the external microphone, It's blinking in notification. And my recording has no sound at all. When I use the recorder app, my sound is just "skipping". It's annoying. I have another lavalier external microphone, but it has the same problem.. But the weird is when I plug my earphone (XIaomi in-ear HD) everything is working fine.
I have found the same problem in YouTube that the use of splitter may work. Then I bought a cheap U-shape splitter with the earphone and the external microphone plugged, then i plug it to my phone. But still, THERE IS NO SOUND AT ALL. It's annoying so much.
My Begonia (Indonesia) is Global MIUI 11 with Android 10 QGGMIXM.
having same problem mate
the same problem with the Boya By - MM1 external microphone
I have the same problem with the Boya By - MM1 external microphone. I read that the problem concerns all external microphones connected to the minijack socket on the Redmi Note 8 Pro phone. When a microphone is connected, the headphone diode flashes and the recorded sound is interrupted at the same frequency. I have reported a problem to Xiaomi technical support many times. I have been ignored. People around the world report a problem with microphone malfunction. This is a common problem. If anyone wants to use an external microphone, the Redmi Note 8 Pro is useless.
Is the problem due to a bug in the android system software or is it a technical defect?
Fix Found!!!!!
The trick is fairly simple.
I have a Boya MM1 mic and it was very very annoying that the mic icon kept blinking in note 8 pro.
Fix is simple.
1. Get a y split cable ... 3.5 mm male to two 3.5 mm female converter.
2. Connection 1 - input The cable with spirals (for DSLRs) to the smartphone to the mic end of the splitter.
3. Dummy connection- Input the smartphone end of the other cord into the other split cable end.
This fix works like magic, for more info
Type external mic not working in XIAOME now 8 pro in YouTube edwin bonus guy.
The video is Japanese but you'll get the gist.
Thank you
Man that was a pain but i luckily found a solution with some cables and adaptors i had at home:
I previously used IRIG pre to connect my condenser mic to my phone via 3.5 mm jack, so what i did from there is connect it to a cheap "ugreen" chinese mini soundcard/splitter (to the headphone/mic combo jack), i connected this to a USB to USB-C adaptor which i then connected to this stupid phone and TA DAM! it worked!
