iPhone Stuck in Headphone mode
I ran into an interesting problem today. My iPhone (version 1) got stuck in headphone mode. I couldn’t recognize that calls had come through, voice mail was nothing but air, and I couldn’t make calls (or hear that I was indeed connected).
I rebooted several times, went to the apple support site, and couldn’t find a single thing. So, I turned to Google…
Surprisingly enough, there were thousands of hits! I started from the top, clicked on the first one, and the incantations I had to go through didn’t help. I started to work my way down the list which had various modifcations to the same original incantations, chants, mumble, mumble with no luck. So, I did a reset.
That’s all I needed a simple reset. I suppose I should have thought about that first, but I was convinced that that wouldn’t work. It’s a good reminder that the simplest approach is generally the best.
