I changed the battery and the screen ( i broke the screen and though why not get a new battery). All went well except only headphones play out of one at all times. It doesn't matter what pair of head phones they are. Ive sbf 2 times i have looked at the port and saw nothing wrong. Im so confused i never have seen this before.

You converted a RAZR HD to a RAZR HD MAXX by changing out only the screen and battery? You have to change the case back, too.

There's not room for the bigger battery in the original case, by at least 0.9mm. You've probably got the circuit board all flexed out of shape, and the connectors are all wedged against the openings in the case. You possibly even broke some of the solder joints between the circuit board and the headphone jack.

Well, in that case then either the headphone jack isn't straight in the case, or the contacts are quite dirty, or the connections to the circuit board are damaged.

Did you pry on the headphone jack to get the board out of the old case?

Have you tried cleaning the headphone jack? Rubbing alcohol on a Q-tip with some of the cotton removed or a pipe cleaner works well.

I'm afraid it may just be damaged, and there's not much you can do to fix it.
