    Thread Headphone port broken?

    I've tried 3 different headphones and the phone never detects anything being plugged into it. It wasn't exposed to any liquids and I've used compressed air to blow out lint. Speakers and bluetooth audio works just fine. Anyway other way to test if the port is working besides plugging in...

    These are very stiff when brand new but softens up well over time.

    Post S8/S8+ & HI-RES Audio

    You will if you're using <150 Ohms headphones as the amp isn't strong. Any in-ears/earbuds or IEM's won't need a dedicated player. A dedicated player like the X5 will definitely give a cleaner sound but you don't have to worry about getting horrible sound with the S8. The S8 may feel bass heavy...

    Post First the Note 7 mess, now the Samsung Promotions debacle.

    The packing slip that came with your phones works as the 'proof of pre-order receipt.' That's what I used as my proof and was accepted within 24 hours.

    Post S8/S8+ & HI-RES Audio

    SD835+Shure SE846's sound amazing listening to FLACs and 320kbps MP3s on the default Samsung Music Player. It's not as bassy compared to my ExynosS6E, the highs are crystal clear, and the sound stage is very wide. There is zero hissing with UHQ upscaler turned on.

    Post Did not expect to get the Gear VR promo so soon.

    Did you ever get an email about it getting shipped+tracking number? I submitted mines on the 19th and was approved on the 21st. Samsung Promotions websites says my gift has been sent on the 22nd but I never got an email about it :(

    Post $99 promotion - anyone else have trouble?

    I feel you, FedEx does the same to me and it annoys the hell out of me. I'd be waiting for the FedEx person to ring my doorbell all day then I see a note on my door the next time I check my door. :crying:
