Wired headphones not working

userZWU2AIoMcG — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 17:03:24 GMT

Anyone else having troubles with wires headphones not connecting? I purchased new ones even though I knew the others worked fine as they were working before the last update. Any suggestions on how to get the phone to recognize they are connected?

There could be a variety of scenarios but here are a couple suggests I searched up.

1. Restarted you phone.
2. Check headphone plug jack for debris.
3. Check headphone jack to make sure its not broken.
4. Check sound output settings.
5. Clear USB cache in settings.

Or it could be a update glitch or a hardware issue. If none of these work you could try showing a repair shop so they can do more thorough testing.

Thank you for the suggestions. I've done everything besides #5. I will try that.
