I have the EXACT same issues that Horta is having. Any ideas guys?
some headsets have forward and reverse controls built into them that work by temporarily shorting out the internal contacts, and you get this problem
Exactly. And so it only happens on some cables and headsets, and even then, can depend on how you plug it in. As you say, the way this is happening seems like it's unavoidable to some degree. Yet some (see JimKnuckles above) have reported that exchanging out their phone actually resolves it for them, so apparently the guesswork involved can be hampered by a hardware difference.So, no solution here, just an explanation as to what is happening... Hope this helps.
I was using my Evo 3d at the gym today and for some reason with the head phone plugged in it skipped songs or fast forward them. I had to mess with the plug to find the right spot to have it play well. Has any one else had any issues?
I searched and did not see this issues with the Evo 3D, if a thread was made already I apologize.
Have been communicating with HTC since this started for me. They even requested pictures of the 3 head phones I've used. There only solution was to exchange the phone at sprint. Since I use my phone a my music player at the gym it gets used regularly. I exchanged it and have yet to try it out at the gym but in store it seemed to work fine.
Mine is happening when I pug into my car stereo via Aux cable. I finally took mine to the Sprint repair store in Sanford, FL and they told me they would not exchange it because of this issue if they could not make it happen in the store. The manager told me that if this is happening when car plugged into an Aux cable in my car, it's not Sprint's issue, but HTC's issue and that I should take it up with them.
Too annoying to deal with, so I called Sprint Telesales and spoke to a manager and she exchanged my phone...I had it the next day. The issue did not go away. I have tried 4 different brands of Aux cables on both phones and it still skips.
I used the same cables on my EVO for a year without an issue. I guess I should report this to HTC. Maybe they can come up with a software fix.
Oh, by the way, it is not just my car, it happens with external speakers at home as well.
There is a thread on this topic. Most likely it'd the phone not the headset, I had this issue and swapped to another phone and issue is gone so far.
