My phone is stuck in headphone mode and nothing is working! Help!
My IPhone 4S is stuck in headphone mode. I have tried everything from putting my phone in rice overnight, blowing and sucking air in the headphone jack,and hard resetting it but nothing is working! Please help!!
Hello manhay,
The following article provides some additional troubleshooting that can help restore audio to your iPhone's speaker.
Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

Stuck on headphone mode and no headphones are connected
my phone is stuck on headphone mode there i have no sound unless i plug in head phones
I'm having the same problem. I have read on a number of forums that plugging and unplugging headphones rapidly solves the issue. I'm yet to be convinced. A friend of mine tells me that if the phone gets too hot then it trips the headphone mode on. There experience was that the fault was current when they visited their local genius bar for help. The advisor took the phone into the back for about 20 mins. He re-imerged saying that there was some debris stuck in the socket. He took the phone away and within 3 hours the same problem happened again. I guess this problem is one that Apple won't own up to and have no fix for. I really wished I had opted for the 3GS as this is my 3rd iPhone 3G since November 2009!!

Any numbers or other details on the mesages given?
Did you try to connect in recovery mode again? iOS: Unable to update or restore
In case your network connection timed out, check your security software settings: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues -
I attempted to update to iOS 8 and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode, and iTunes will only let me restore to factory settings. My question: Can I restore from iTunes backup after restoring to factory settings?
Hi, kformagg
I would say yes. I once had the same problem (iPhone 5, IOS 7) and first restored to factory settings and after that from iCloud backup.
It worked very well. -
i tried updating my iphone 4s to the ios 7 but it said error with the firmware now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and i have no idea how to fix it any suggestions??
Try Restoring it 3 times in a row and see if that works.
If not that error can indicate one of two things: Your iPhone was at one time jailbroken, had the iOS version rolled back, or ran an unauthorized beta and if none of those things are true it is a hardware error. -
my mom updated her iphon4 last night and now all of her contacts are gone. i have tried everything that I have come across and nothing is working. help?
What cloud service or contact manager was she syncing them to? They should still be there and she should be able to sync them back. If she was not doing so, they are gone.

I can't hear my calls. My phone is stuck on headphone mode
I Have an I Phone 4 S and it is stuck on headphone mode. i don't have headphones connected, but I'm unable to hear my calls. How do I turn the headphone mode off?
Hello, Hethmarti
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your iPhone indicates that it is stuck in headphone mode. Try connecting a set of headphones and removing them. You may need to repeat this procedure multiple times. If this does not resolve the issue try the additional troubleshooting steps in the attached article below.

I am trying to raise the volume on my phone, but it is saying that the headphones are attached when they are not attached. How do I fix this?
I tried everything there was. I tried to plug and unplug, I tried to clean it and dry it, and I really didn't want to put my phone in a bag of rice for 12 or 24 hours because I wasn't very patient. So what I did was; I put my phone on headphone mode and put it on airplane mode, then I left it there for 5 minutes and turned airplane mode off and it was working!!!! Hope this helped.

Can anyone help me with my phone being stuck in recovery mode? I have looked all over the internet and have had no success. I have not tried to restore it with Itunes, because my data is not backed up and I don't want to lose it. Tinyumbrella would not work and the apple support website is completely useless!
Thanks, I figured that out, so I went ahead and restored it, which also didn't work! It gave me an error 3194, which I also can't figure out.

UUp until just a few min ago the speaker on my iPad air was working just fine then it went into headphone mode how do I get it back to using is own speaker
It is possible that you may have some dust or lint stuck in the headphone jack opening. It may not be visible via external inspection. If you have a can of spray air - attempt to clean out the headphone jack (carefully) with the spray air. If you don't have a can of air - trying blowing sharply into the headphone jack to see if lint or dust comes out. Also try the other suggestions in this post for rebooting the iPhone and making sure that you do not have the phone muted.

Dear all,
I have had problems with the internet connection with my IPhone 5. I have tried to restore the software to see if that would make a difference.
I have tried now for at least 10 times to restore the software. The phone is locked now in restore mode, and when I get to the end of the restore to verify with the server, i get a consistent unknown error message. Sometimes is says my phone cannot be found.
The phone has the connect to Itunes on the screen and cannot be used.
I am running out of patience now....need urgent help!!
What to do?Contact Apple support for warranty service.

I don't think I back uped anything. I assume it was already going to do that like most times..
I downloaded and updated the phone with the iOS6, but then an error occurred saying that the phone can't be updated. It then turned into recovery mode and suggests that the only way to use the phone is if I restore it.. which I really can't do! I still have lots of photos..
Please, I regret not having backing up just in case, but is there any way to somehow 'undo' the recovery mode and bring it back to normal (regardless of which iOS it has)? Please, I really would appreciate a solution, any solution.
Thank you.What's wrong with you guys.. you must ALWAYS back it up before anything major like this.
If it's not too late, and i do not know if this will work or not.. but download something like TinyUmbrella or any program that will allow you to kick it out of Recovery Mode and back to regular. May or may not work but worth a shot. -
My iphone 5s became stuck in recovery mode while I was trying to backup to icloud. How can I get it off of recovery to save my photos? It wants me to restore in itunes but I'm afraid I will lose my photos.
IF your phone is in recovery mode, then there is no data on it.
If you didn't import your pics or have photos stream enabled or have a previous back up, then sorry your pics are gone. -
