Skullcandy earbuds stopped working after iOS 7.03

odd because wired headset is a 100% mechanical 100% not software controlled thing

which is also why people have problems when the mechanical headset detector get stuck

I, too, am experiencing a similar issue. I have the iPhone 5 and since updating to iOS7 just last week, my BlackBerry wired headset (that has been perfect without issue for the last 18months) no longer has anything coming out the ear pieces. I cannot use them to make call and have to use the speaker phone.. Have you been able to resolve this issue since your original post?

have you tried checking the earphone spot on your iphone for dust or damage?

Yep - no dirt, no corrosion, no damage... Today I tried plugging them in while I was in the middle of a call and couldn't believe they worked. I figured the problem solved itself. But then when I tried to make another call with the hands free (activating Siri to call from my address book), nothing would happen. Pushing and holding the activation button on the hands free does nothing. And I'm back to hearing nothing on the headset - not even beeps as the number is dialed.... Very frustrating.

it is possible that you disabled siri which would be why its not working. you can reanable it in the siri settings

I Never had Siri enabled since I got the device 18months ago. But I was still able to depress the little toggle switch on the headphones and speak "call so-and-so" and she would dial that person from my address book. Or I could ask her to dial a number and she would. But now, nothing.

well its obvious that it needs to be fixed try going to an apple store
