Tour thinks Headset is plugged in all the time
- Last night I had an issue w/ my Tour. I went to make a phone call, but I wasn't hearing anything through the handset. I looked at the screen and next to the phone icon was a headset icon. I hit the menu key to try to deactivate it, but it wouldn't give me the option. Even a battery pull wouldn't fix the situation. So what I did to fix this was to plug in a pair of headphones, did a battery pull, waited for a minute, put the battery back in w/ the headphones still plugged in, then after it reboot, pulled the headphones out and the audio was able to play through the handset.
The problem now is that I think it still thinks there is a headset plugged in, so I am now not able to activate speakerphone. B/c normally, you should get the option of "handset or speakerphone"... Now I only get the option of "handset or headset". Better than it was before but still not completely fixed. I don't use the speakerphone that often, but still bothers me that somethings messed up. If anyone has any insight, it would be helpful. Thanks!10-09-09 09:09 AMLike 0 - I think there are a few threads on this problem. I think one suggestion was to play some music and plug in the headphone and then unplug it or something similar - sorry, I don't recall but a search for headphone might turn up a thread or two.10-09-09 09:53 AMLike 0

if anyone else is having this problem. plug in a pair of headphones, make a call, then during the call take out the headphones. i hope this issue doesn't present itself again tho, it is annoying!10-09-09 11:12 AMLike 0 - Yes, this is how I fixed it with one of the releases with the Storm. You play something or make a call (I played a song in media player), and take a pair of headphones and plug and unplug them until the headphone 'releases'
(there may be a couple other things you can try, but this method worked several times for me)10-09-09 12:54 PMLike 0
