In-Ear Headphone: How to fix 'static' noise on Bose QC20i Noise Cancelling Headphones?

Mon, 15 Apr 2024 08:10:59 -0700

I have a pair of Bose QC20i noise cancellation headphones. When they were new, I could turn on the noise cancellation switch without the jack being plugged in, and they worked fine.

Now, they produce a noticeable feedback sound when not plugged in. This can be altered by touching the tip of the headphone jack.

When plugged in, the feedback goes away, but they produce a hissing sound in the left ear. Sometimes this hissing replaces the feedback sound mentioned above.

However, when music is turned on, even at a level which is inaudible to me, they seem to work fine.

I bought them new only a few months ago, but the purchase was on ebay so Bose tells me they will not honor the warranty.

Does this sound like something I could try to fix myself?

Any hints on troubleshooting would be appreciated.

In-Ear Headphone: How do I fix my Jaybird X2? faulty power button

Sat, 29 Mar 2025 12:04:51 -0700

apparently, there is a bad connection. The power button does not work properly.

depending on how you hold the earbuds, the button powers on/off by itself. the volume buttons are not working at all.

In-Ear Headphone: Jabra Rox earbuds wont power on issue

Sun, 14 Apr 2024 14:58:13 -0700

hi there everyone.

I've had a pair of Jabra Rox Bluetooth earbuds for a while now and recently I've come across an issue which many people have run into. they just won't turn on!

so without being plugged into anything, the earbuds don't turn on at all. when you plug it into a wall/ computer the LED on the earbuds turn red (charging indicator) for 1 second for it then to turn green (fully charged indicator). while the jabras are plugged into my pc I hold down the turn on button for a few seconds. my pc then makes a ding noise indicating that the pc detects the earbuds. but from that still, nothing happens.

any ideas about my situation? I would love to hear them.

thanks in advance

In-Ear Headphone: How to repair Jaybird X3 left ear. Wear and tear caused wires to break

Tue, 14 Dec 2021 07:29:45 -0700

Wear and tear caused the left ear of my X3's to cut out unless i could get them in a VERY specific position that wasn't maintainable without keeping my hand above my head. I pulled them apart and need to re-solder the healthy wire back into the ends of the wires coming out of the headphone. I could probably solder them straight to the board, but wouldn't it be easier to solder the wires together?

In-Ear Headphone: How to fix Aftershokz Aeropex?

Mon, 22 May 2023 06:26:29 -0700

Hello everyone,

Background : a few months ago, I bought an Aftershokz Aeropex bone conduction headset. They were brand new, I bought them in a second hand website and the person who sold me the Aftershokz didn’t have any receipt as a proof of purchase (I cannot use the guarantee and Aftershokz said they can’t help me on this…).

Description of the issue : after normal usage, the headphone turned off. It is now impossible to turn them on. I tried to recharge them, to reset them but nothing worked.

Is there a superhero out there who knows how to fix this issue ? Or is a disposable product ?

Thanks !!

Vincent

In-Ear Headphone: Replace audio jack on iPhone headphones

Mon, 07 Oct 2013 14:43:03 -0700

My iPhone headphones keep breaking, always at the connection to the audio jack (yes, I know I'm hard on them, but this seems to be a common problem). I now have quite a collection of headphones and instead of getting new ones, I'd like to simply get new jacks and wire them up.

Any tips would be appreciated, especially which wire goes to which connector. Also, a good source for the audio jacks. Thanks.

Hi there!

Picked up my Jabra headset after 2 years and the Lithium Ion batteries are completely dead. Support said I would need a new pair as the batteries die after 6 months. it looks like i can replace them.

From the outside these wireless buds seem to be really similar, do you think i could just follow the guide below?

Hi so I have a set of otium Bluetooth headphones

https://www.otiumobile.com/products/otiu...

and the left headphone dose not play sound anymore, after looking online the problem seems to be a bad connection in the wire to the left ear piece. There is one panel on the right earphone that opens up but beyond that I have no clue how to fix the broken connection.
