I hadn't used the headphones before this happened. I've tried cleaning out the jack with a match (it looks very clean) and plugging the headphones in and out several times whilst watching a video. Neither worked.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

iPhone 6, iOS 8, 1 day old.
I've been trying to get this issue fixed on my iPhone 6 almost all day. I never use headphones and my phone has never had any water or physical damage. I tried SO MANY things and what finally worked for me was this.. HOLD DOWN THE VOLUME UP AND DOWN BUTTONS AT THE SAME TIME, WHILE STILL HOLDING THESE DO A HARD RESET. SO ALL THE STEPS YOU WILL DO AT THE SAME TIME ARE HOLD DOWN THE VOLUME UP AND DOWN BUTTONS WHILE HOLDING DOWN THE HOME BUTTON AS WELL AS THE BUTTON ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR PHONE. ONCE YOU SEE THE WHITE SCREEN WITH THE APPLE YOU CAN LET GO OF ALL BUTTONS. THIS SHOULD FIX THE ISSUE! I really hope this saves someone a lot of the hassle I've been through!!
I was out in heavy rain for 30 seconds with phone in my pocket and wasn’t aware that it had got damp but that must have been the cause.
Having seen this thread I connected to a Bluetooth device and switched airplane mode on. The volume control then reverted to showing normal volume not headphones. When I turned off both airplane mode and Bluetooth, the volume stayed in normal speaker mode, so all good again.
Whether this was a coincidence that the headphone socket dried out at this point I don’t know. I suspect that allowing the phone to gently dry is probably key. The bag of rice tip found elsewhere is worth using, as I would have gone to that next, as it has worked with my wife’s phone when dropped down the toilet.
Just when threw the same promblem with my iPhone 6 and I tried everything also only thing that worked for me was putting my phone on airplane mode for an hour and when I turned it off it worked again
Tried every method in every one of these forums. The only thing that worked for me was Airplane Mode. I put it in Airplane Mode for 15 minutes and it worked.
Literally tried EVERYTHING and this finally worked!!! Thanks for the tip! Saved me the trouble of having to go into a store.
this worked!!! I already went to an apple service store and Verizon, they didn't know how to fix this, THANK You saved me a lot of money
Great fix, worked immediately!
1) have someone call you, 2) turn on to speaker mode, 3)turn off the speaker, 4) plug in your headphone, 5) un-plug headphone.
home and power
TThis totally works thanks so much!
I Also have the same problem.
Tried all of the above solutions but still the phone is in headphone mode. 😟
i think I should visit Apple store now
Try the paperclip option. Stick it in the jack and juggle while listening to music! Thanks to Danny6052
Thanks for the info. I tried this for about 5 mins and it worked. 🙂
Sorry...accidentally posted a reply to this but can't seem to delete it.
Thank you! This worked for me for my iPhone 5s only I used a toothpick in addition to the smooth thin fabric. And I was also in airplane mode.
Only thing that worked, you da man
iPhone is stuck in headphone mode
