Default Headphone jack problems

Im currently on my 3rd hero. The first one was replaced due to the headphone jack kicking the bucket, and the second was bc sprint seemed to think my 2.1 lag was a software issue. Now, being on my 3rd hero, my headphone jack seems to be cutting out AGAIN! This time its only the left channel. the left cut out on 2 sets of headphones and in my car, so its definately a phone issue and not a speaker issue.

Does anyone know a way around this to fix it? Im fairly certain its not a software issue, as i had the same problem on stock sense as well as cm6. I really have no desire to get yet another hero from sprint...

I've had a similar problem. Only on my 1st Hero, but the left channel went out randomly today. Thought it was a headphone issue, bought new ones, it wasn't. Checked the old and new headphones on other devices, they work. Definitely the 3.5mm jack on the phone.

What did you end up doing?

I'm not thrilled with getting another Hero, even though I have insurance. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? I use my music through headphones a ton, so before I go back to school, I need this fixed. Guy told me he'd order a new Hero for me, could send it to my school... ugh. Any ideas?
