Hi,


I too faced same issue recently and somehow able to resolve it. Please try below steps : -


1) Clean your headphone jack(small round hole beside of charger point) with earbud. Insert earbud and try to revolve in circular direction 8-10 time. Hopefully it will work. If not follow 2 step.

2)Take one needle and try to clean connector(golden ball) inside headphone jack(This works for me)


Basically this happens due to dust or carbon or when headphone jack connector(golden ball) stucks.


Hope my answer will help you to resolve your issue.


Thanks

I had this same problem

Here are things you can do

1. Restart the devise

2. Use a q tip (take off most of the cotton) and just try to clean it out as best you can (the headphone/audio jack)

3. Try using a hairdryer on high all around the jack, until the I pad gets considerably warmer

4. Blow into it, try not to spit into it

5. Suck as hard as you can on the jack

6. Have someone facetime/call you. This will make it so you can hear them and they can hear you. Then end the call and see if it still happens

Number 3 is the one that worked for me

I really hope this helps, I know the pain and it only happened to me for an hour. Please ask me any question or clarifications you have. Good luck
