Hey there,

I think it could be the same issue as I had, my headphones would take ages to be recognised or sometimes not at all until eventually they were never detected. The problem was that the headphone jack is connected electrically to the motherboard using sprung contacts, this is a good design as you can never break the headphone socket by yanking on the headphone lead which happens time to time by mistake. But, over time the contacts got dirty due to sweat, moisture, all I had to do was strip the handset down, clean and tweak the contacts to have a little more pressure and it was fixed . I found a N900 strip down on youtube and carefully followed it,
