Headphone Jack stuck in port

Hi.


So, I was plugging in headphones, and the metal jack broke off from the rest of the metal. Now the iPad thinks there's headphones plugged in, so no audio comes through to the speakers. Some of it got out, but it's really stubborn. I want any ideas on being able to get it out without having to use glue anytime possible.



Any ideas?

You might want to take it to a jeweler - one who make jewelry

and not just sells it. They have tools for working in tight spaces

and may be able to get the rest of the headphone jack out.
