N8 Headphone buttons not working

Hi,
Just few weeks ago, my N8 headphone was perfect. I could receive call, change volume, change song but after that, I can not do anything except hearing music. I tried most of the tip people said in this forums but nothing worked. Now, phone shows headphone icon, I can hear clear music but I can't do anything with the buttons. totally inactive. Just few days ago,I updated the the phone by going Settings>Phone>PhoneManagement>Device Update and I am not sure the problem starts after that or before. Any help would be appriciated. Finally is there any nokia support center in city?

It gets confused because there are accessory default settings override it. Because a headset can be read as headphones simply by having the settings ignore the signals coming from the controls. This is useful in making the phone compatible to more headsets. For example, people trying to use iPhone headsets with controls on Nokia products end up with a low buzz for some reason. Setting the phone to headset to ignore the signals from the controllers may eliminate this buzz. Its not any problem with the phone, in fact I like it that way. Sometimes the software used to encode controls is not fully compatible causing problems. Furthermore again as stipulated, if the headset isnt pushed ALL THE WAY in, the remote control channel may not lineup nicely with the receiver.

  • Nokia N8 headphone buttons not working :(

    I recently bought a nokia n8 and when i plugged in the headset, its working fine,
    all the buttons on it are fine. except for the call answering button!
    when i recive a call and press the call answering button, there is no response to it, nothing happens..............and even when the phone is on the stand-by and i press and hold the call answering button,it doesnt prompt for the  VOICE-rec.
    but i tried using the headset on my nokia 5800 and the button was working fine, and but when i tried the headphone of nokia 5800 on my nokia N8, the call ansering was working
    so i am confuse how to solve this riddel thing!

    Simply put your headset isnt connected properly loads of people ahd the same issue
    to fix it:
    just take the headphone jack and plug it in real fast to the port until you hear a nice CLICK noise and your set

  • IPhone headphone button not working

    Since updating to the 2.1 firmware, my "multi-functional headphone button" has not been responding.
    This is using the stock headphones provided.
    Anyone else experiencing this problem?

    Tested mine with the wife's headset and mine have bust.
    Just filled in the online return form and will see how long it all takes.
    Fortuantely - these errors cost companies loads of money so there is a definite interest in preventing such returns in the future.
    Additionally - as Apple makes both software and hardware, its whole reputation rests on the smallest of components.
    In some respects - its rather like the catholic church..... Come on Pope Steve I (and II).... sort it out.
    But speaking logically - if the headsets made today have been re-engineered with a smaller failure rate, there will still be warehouses full of the original batch to be sent out....
    But congrats for making such a simple device - one click to pause, two to advance, three to cycle back? Genius!

    Hi there,
    It sounds like your purchased content is not transfering via a flash drive. It may be easier to re-download this contnet directly from iTunes. Take a look at the article below for mor information.

  • Iphone 4 volume buttons not working

    iphone 4 volume and mute buttons not working, checked all settings they are all fine and when headphones in it works??? When I take out headphones the volum buttons do not work, when phone rings or text receives only vibrates???? HELP!!!!

    This could be due to some debris or dirt inside the  headphones jack that makes the iPhone think that the headphones are connected even when they are not.
    Try to see if you can clean the jack being very careful, with canned air as sold in electronics store.  Some people have been successful by introducing and withdrawing the headphones jack several times in a row to displace whatever is in there if it is lodged in.
    Avoid introducing anything else like a pointed object.  You could damage the jack.
    If all of this does not work, I would try first resetting the phone by holding the home button and the power button together for about 15 seconds or until the whilte apple appears, then waiting until the phone resets.  If the problem continues after this, take it to an Apple Store to see what they believe should be done.

  • One headphone does not work or works 50% of the time.  What is best way to resolve?

    one headphone does not work or works 50% of the time.  What is best way to resolve?

    First of all, I'd recomend resetting the iPod. Do this by pressing the 'Menu' and 'Center" buttons for 10 seconds or until the Apple logo appears.
    If this doesn't work, then it sounds like a hardware fault.
    To identify the issue, if you have one, try plugging the iPod into a speaker through the dock. If this works, then the issue is with the headphone jack. If not then the logic board is dead.  If the iPod is less than a year old, then it can be repaired by Apple for free. Just book an appointment for the Genius bar.
    If not then, you could see about sending it to an iPod Repair Company, such as my own. A replacement headphone jack would cost £30.00 in the UK, including next day delivery. Other companies you could try would beUKiPodRepairs, but we guarantee to beat any quote that you get.
    Hope that this helps,

  • TS3694 No sound and ringer button not working. I cannot play music but when I put my Iphone 4 on the dock it plays music. This happens when I updated my phone to IOS 6.1.3..The phone doesnt have any carriers we only used this just like Itouch. Please help

    Please help. Since I updated my Iphone4 to ISO 6.1.3...The ringer button not working, can't play any music (but ok with the dock), headphone sound is muffled. What can I do? I tried restoring and downgrading but it won't let me.

    Hi there,
    Thanks for reaching out to the community.
    Please help. Since I updated my Iphone4 to ISO 6.1.3...The ringer button not working, can't play any music (but ok with the dock), headphone sound is muffled. What can I do? I tried restoring and downgrading but it won't let me.
    It appears like you may have a hardware issue with your ringer button and internal speaker that came to light after the update. If you have already restored your iPhone back to factory settings using iTunes, you may need to have your phone serviced.
    Some potential good news... Check your headphone jack for lint. There may be enough to cause a muffled connection. You can try to blow it out with compressed air or very carefully pulling out any solid objects that may affect the connection.
    Best of luck!

  • Internal speakers and headphones are not working

    I have hp g6 2231tx os Windows 8, brought it a month ago..now it's internal speakers and headphones are not working..I enabled in playback device from sound mixer and reinstalled drivers but still not working..it's because of hardware or software??

    Hi,
    It could be either Hardware or Software related, so try the following and let me know.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp58501-59000/sp58517.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

    If you still have no audio, open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Services.  Check that the following services are all showing as Status= Started and Start-up Type= Automatic
    Audio Service
    Multimedia Class Scheduler
    Windows Audio
    Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
    If you need to make a change to any of the above, just right click the service and select Properties, then in the dropdown box next to 'Start-up type',  select Automatic and click Apply to save the change.  Then click the Start button.

  • Logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014

    logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014 winds 8.1. Is this a common problem?
    I have updated the latest drivers and have a few buttons programmed with keyboard shortcuts that used to work in previous versions of Photoshop but don't work now.
    Scrolling with mouse in bridge stopped working in cc butI see it is now working.
    any ideas?

    Many Photoshop extensions are not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014 for Adobe removed support for Flash Panels in CC 2014. Many extensions panels are flash based.  Check with the developer to see if their blendmein extension works with CC 2014.
    Adobe does not maintain Photoshop so it backward compatible with prior versions of Photoshop.  This brakes things like action scripts plugins extensions etc. Keep old version of Photoshop installed....

    It seems that settings of mail accounts have something to do with it. I've delete my gmail account and am now using Microsoft Exchange. It seems better, yet not perfect. The issue is definitely due to OS 4.3.1
    Apple answer is - no answer. It is a shame that the quality of their products, in terms of design and concept, is not match by a care for customers. It is not normal that I, as a customer, have to spend hours reading Apple Discussions forum to try to understand what the problem is. A little more respect for a customer that spend big $$$ buying their products wouldn't hurt.
