Headset symbol displayed with no headset plugged in

headphone symbole not gone on the screen.

shorted in headset socket

There is a switch inside your headphone jack. When you plug your headphone in it moves and breaks connection telling the phone that the headphones are plugged in. Try plugging and unplugging a headset to see if it frees this switch up. If not you may have a malfunctioning switch.

Also, turn off bluetooth if it is on...it might be hooked up to a bluetooth headset if you have one.

Add the accessories to your profile which you are currently using. It will show you the icon of the accessory connected.

It sounds like the plug and the jack are incompatible.

Check to see that both are what's called TRS connections, i.e., Tip/Ring/Sleeve.

TRS plugs & jacks provide two separate circuits (in this case, one for mic, one for phones).

TRS jacks/plugs are also called "stereo jacks".

This mostly happens from water damage to the connection ports. Use some 91% alcohol and wipe the connections with a toothbrush. Hopefully it will disconnect from headset mode

sonyerickson k550i headphone symbol problem

Dont plugged into the headset jack. Like Nortel, connect headset line with phone base unit in receiver jack and plugged your phone receiver wire into headset or plantronic base unit. This will work. I am sorry, my english is not too good but hope you understand it now. But the pully is not working properly with IP501..I mean it is not good to pickup IP501 receiver and put it back right place.

I have a similar problem on my phone, which is that when I insert my headset, it does not recognise it. And thus the music is played through the loudspeaker. And if it is recognised (luckily), then after I take it out, I see that the headset sign is still there. The only solution I have had is to turn the phone off and switch it on again. The sign should go away by then.
