iPhone 3G headphones button problem – fixed!

[contentblock id=2]

I was starting to get sick of my headphones. I would plug them in and I could hear music but the button didn’t work for play/stop or skipping tracks. That wasn’t the end of the world until I started having problems with phone calls. Turns out that if the clicker isn’t working the microphone also isn’t working. Anyways, the fix was an easy one. There was nothing wrong with the headphones or the phone.

I was reading on a forum and discovered that lots of people were having problems with pocket lint getting in the headphone receptacle. All I had to do was dig around a little with a paperclip and I found a hug piece of pocket lint.

After clearing it I’ve had no problems. Yay!
