N97 headset mode stuck

Hi im a long time user of nokia phones and have a first major problem with my N97. Recently i have just occured that my n97 is stuck on headset mode with even anything being in the headset jack.
This is very annoying as i cannot answer calls without using my headset. I have tried on and off taking the battery out installing new firmware and unplugging and replugging the headphones in
Any suggestions

I have the same problem.

N97 stuck in headset mode

I connected my phone up to my stereo via the headphone jack. And when I unplugged it, it didn't register this. Now it's stuck in headset mode with the little headphone icon in the top right. I can't answer any calls as it sends it through to the headphones and I can't bluetooth music to my car either.
I have tried switching off and then on again, and tried connecting the headphones that came with it in the hope that when I unplugged them it would fix itself. On a separate issue I can't connect it to my pc so I can't back anything up, to do a hard re-set.
Any suggestions?

Mine is doing exactly the same thing.
The only way for me to get rid of the headphones mode is to turn it off and turn it back on again then when it asks 'Select accessory', I press 'Cancel'. And even tho it is not yet in headphone mode if I try to put on the FM Transmitter it says 'Unable to activate FM transmitter while enhancement is connected'.
Since nobody replied to my thread I am just hanging out till the firmware v12.0.024 update is available before I take it back to the store.

Ipad mini (1st. gen) stuck in headset mode

AFTER UPDATING TO IOS 8 NOW BOTH OF MY MINI IPADS (1ST GEN) ARE STUCK ON HEADSET MODE... HELP!!!!!

I had the exact same problem with my iPhone a few months ago. I was in the middle of an update and it told me to connect to iTunes while it was already connected, but then stayed frozen. I tried restoring, removing the sim card, reinstalling iTunes, using a different computer, everything. Unfortunately you'll probably have to take it to the Apple store like I did. They wiped out my phone and fixed the problem in about 2 seconds, but they did it in the back room so I have no idea what they actually did. Probably worked their Mac Genius magic or something. Sorry :\

Samsung Trance stuck in headset mode

My Samsung trance has no sound when I don't have headphones plugged in and when I open a text message, it automatically initiates an outgoing call to the message sender.

Hi candace_marie18.
I'm sorry to learn your Samsung Trance is having issues with being stuck in headset mode, as well as it placing calls automatically to people when you open your texts. Let's see what we can do. How long have you had your phone? When did this start happening? Has it been dropped or exposed to liquid at all? You can try removing battery for 30 seconds and restart to see if it fixes issues. Otherwise, as archeryhunter1993 mentioned, you can try a Master Reset.
* From the main screen, press OK to choose Menu.
* Select Settings & Tools then press OK.
* Select Phone Settings then press OK.
* Select Security then press OK.
* Enter the Phone Lock Code (default is the last 4 digits of the phone number) then press OK.
* Select Restore Phone then press OK.
* Select Yes then press OK.
* Press OK.
* Enter the handset lock code (default is the last 4 digits of the phone number) then press OK.
I trust this information is helpful.
Thank you,

3GS stuck in headset mode (no ringtone & sounds)

Hi,
at first: I never jailbreaked my phone and i take a lot of care of my device.
But today i made two calls and i didn't hear the called persons.
Then i tried to raise the volume with the volume buttons but it was at full volume showing:
Volume (headset)
I never use a headset, but now i know my phone thinks a headset is attached and deactivates the internal speaker.
I searched for the original iphone headphones and plugged them in and out, but still stuck in headset mode. Rebooted several times and controlled the headphone jack for dirt inside, but problem still persists.
Now i powered down the 3GS an waited for an hour and after reboot the headset mode is gone and internal speaker is working again immediately.
My questions:
- Why did this happen?
- Is it a known hardware bug? If so, will it happen again, so i should take it better to warranty repair?

One cause of this is lint stuck in the headphone jack causing a short. Plugging the headphones in and out merely pushes the lint further down. Next time this happens(hopefully it won't happen again), try cleaning the headphone jack with compressed air first. There is no bug regarding this, and most likely won't happen again.

E61 stuck in headset mode

My boss's E61 is stuck in headset mode (happened during a call when no headset was plugged in). I've tried toggling every option on and off but it is still there. I've plugged in and out headsets but this mode is still stuck.
This set is still using 1.x firmware.
Do you think it is hardware problem (connectors short circuited internally) or a software bug?

Hi wiilstay
If you back up all data first, you could always try updating the software using NSU which will return everything to factory settings. This will eliminate any possible software
problem!

IPhone still stuck in headset mode? Try this.

So your iPhone is stuck in headset mode. No sound from earhole speaker, no sound from external speaker unles you use speaker mode during a call. When you change volume, the volume icon says ringer(headphones) even though no headphones are plugged in. Every time you plug in your headphones, the ipod function starts playing songs, and stops when you unplug.
You've tried cleaning the jack. You've looked at previous posts in this forum, and at the knowledgebase.

None of these suggestions have helped, and you don't want to hard reset your phone. This is what i think worked for me.
1. Plug in headset when iPhone is locked.
2. Hold down the power button so that the "slide to power off" bar appears.
3. Remove the headphones.
4. Push the "Cancel" button at the bottom of the screen.
5. Go to the phonepad and see if pressing the buttons now produces sound.
(It's possible that I've forgotten something that I did, so the next time my phone locks, I'll try the same method again and update this post. Unless someone else is having the problem and wants to verify.)
~ Matthew Lowe

The root cause is either the presence of lint/dust in the switch or the inadequate resilience of the spring.
Nod, that's the cause of a similar problem, and cleaning the jack tends to help. My problem is a software problem, though, so cleaning and repeatedly inserting the headphones won't help.
With the problem I have, the iphone responds to the headphones being inserted or removed, so it knows they're there (or not there) but it fails to switch the speaker output.

Nokia 6070 stuck in headset mode

starting today my nokia 6070 is refusing to go out of headset mode without ever having had a headset. I reset factory settings and nothing seems to work. Anybody have any idea's?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I believe the 6070 is a pop-port phone, and what you're describing is characteristic of moisture or corrosion inside the connector.
Take your handset to the nearest Nokia Care Point, they will clean it out for you and you should be right as rain afterwards.

Ringer stuck in headset mode

I've tried inserting and removing a headset, but it didn't fix the problem. I have never used a headset on this phone, so not sure how it got into headset mode. Any suggestions?

My husband's 4S just had the same issue. I used a can of compressed air that I use for cleaning keyboards. I gave it 3 shots of air and his sounds and ringer are back.

My phone 4s won't come off of headset mode even after I remove them. Help !!

Cant hear or record my voice when on headset mode in calld but can use speaker phone

I just got a BlackBerry Z10. When I make calls or am called people can't hear my voice in normal headset mode but if I put them on speaker they can hear me. I tried seeing if I could record my voice and it's not picking up anything. Why in normal mode isn't it picking up anything? Is there a setting messed up or did I buy a defective phone? Why does the microphone pick up when in speaker phone mode but not normal headset mode?

You should run some tests to see what's happening. If you still have the Help icon on your homescreen, click it then click Testing at the bottom to run the tests. If you no longer have the Help icon, go to BlackBerry World and search for BBVE.
Keep us up to date on your progress.
