Headphones port on my Zen no longer working

Hi, The headphones port on my Zen has gradually started to not work and now does no work at all. For a period of time I was able to push it a bit to one side and it would play again but no it is not giving out any proper sound. Any suggestions as to how this can be fixed? Cheers, Clement

You may have a detatched connector on your circuit board. My main solution is: Solder the wire to the connector and presto. You may have to read instructions as to how to take it apart. Good Luck.

Headphones keep going quiet.

I would return them and either get a new one from them or another manufacturer.

The speakers of is no longer working that is why your phone sounds only with headphones.

I have problem with audio port. sometimes it does not work with headphone.

In this scenario we never blame first the port of the laptop. have you tried different headphones? normally the audio ports dont go wrong that often. but after trying different headphones if it still doesnot works then you will need to take the laptop to the service station. try different headphones before spending a penny after laptop's audio port.

My zen duh

My suggestion is that there is a loose connection in the headphones and that is why it will only work when it's in a certain direction. That would be the soloution if it was just that one pair of headphones. If lots of pairs of headphones don't work. then it might be that one of the metal plates in the headphone port is broken or damaged. If this is so it might be worth taking it to your local electrician.
