Hi everyone, I recently replaced the battery of my iPhone SE and the headphone jack stopped working. When I am playing music from Spotify/Youtube and plug in my earphones the music continues playing on the speakers and there is no sound through the earphones. I did the following troubleshooting: Cleaned out the headphone jack (with compressed air, a piece of cotton and a little bit of rubbing alcohol)Tried different earphones (double checked and made sure they worked on a iPhone SE and iPhone 6+)Made a backup and did a reset to factory settingsReinstalled iOS via iTunesReplaced the lightning connector assembly, including headphone jack and microphone with a working oneOrdered a new battery and installed it in a different (working) iPhone SE, in case it had anything to do with the logic board of my iPhone—now I have 2 iPhones with a non functioning headphone jack So, I tried all the above and nothing works. What am I missing here? Any help would be appreciated! Cheers, Tom *I repair iPhones and MacBooks frequently, so I am very careful and know what tools to use and how to use them. Update (12/08/2018) I bought a replacement dock-connector, installed it and now everything works again!
Hello, I think you broke the connection between your headphone jack and the motherboard, you need that check carefully. Good luck.
