HF Button Widget (<=KitKat)
When headphone is inserted, this widget can toggle your headset audio off, to have the sound come out of your built-in speaker or even connected bluetooth.
An indicator dot tells you if sound is going to come through the headphones when there's media sound playing.
Free with no ads
Branch of https://code.google.com/p/toggleheadset2/ for personal use, with bug fixes...
Removed call detection features and on-boot settings. Supports both headphones and headsets. Playing music to bluetooth when headphone/headset plugged in is now possible.
This app just tells Android to pretend as if the headphone is not plugged in even though it is.
Icon with Android asset studio + Tango icon theme + GIMP
Known quirks: If headphone/headset is plugged in with bluetooth A2DP attachment, the volume control might be either bluetooth media or the ordinary media audiostream. That's Android getting confused about where the music is actually being played, because this app pulls the rug from underneath it.
If you have a HTC device with a self-toggling headphone jack, the widget will be updating itself too much.
The way this app works results in conditional unpredictable behavior, particularly with phone calls. Hence, this app is alpha and will stay that way.
To do: Should probably merge this into another app someday, but for now it's useful for various things... HDMI not tested, don't have the equipmentCurrently ugly

A review indicates that this allows the use of the integrated speakers with 1seg (ワンセグ) on the KDDI HTC J One.

Dont even both with other options. they dont work, have ads, and take up lots of memory. This works great, is a small widget, and saved me from tossing a phone cuz the headphone/mic detector got stuck permanent on "on"
It's good. This really helped me as a temporary software fixing software hence I've been having many cases where by some phones have a motherboard earphone resistant fault. Some you may found the earp4n socket is broken or cracked from board but this works as well as fixed.
My ZTE was showing that I had my earphones in and this app allowed me to use my speakers! It does what you want it to do! Thanks app makers! Update: the app only works when it wants to so i had to install another app. sigh*
i LOVE THIS APP i had a little trouble putting it on as a shortcut BUT MY PHONE FIXED ITSELF AFTER I ACTIVATED IT, if you guys are having trouble putting it as a shortcut 1. You hold you screen down until the screen expands 2. Tap the word "widgets" below and scroll until you see this app 3. Hold it down and place it somewhere on the home screen 4. tap the app until the yellow dot goes away and test out a video 5. Enjoy! (hope this helped)
It worked after three days of trying. I pressed the widget and still the yellow dot did not move but then I restarted my phone then my audio came back.
took me a long time to figure out it is a widget and I needed to press and hold on an open page and then go to widget and go though them until I found it and could move it to my open screen. worked great after that.
Very bad. Did not worked with my redmi note 7 pro. Use Lesser audio switch. It works with redmi phones. Restored my audio in no time.
It's a useless app. The icon does not appear in your icon draw or homescreen so you can't use it. It just takes up data space.
My phone has Been stuck in head phone mode for days now,i installed the app.it took a whole day for the yellow dot to come out and I've been clicking it ,its not even responding ,the app isn't working.if theres a better thing to do please tell me .
Bruh I downloaded put on home and tried to activate this review may decrease or increase because it does not respond to my LG phone I would like some more instructions. Thank you.
My headphones broke. One half in my tablet. I thought I would have to walk downstairs, looking guilty. When I found this app. I eventually told my dad and he drilled out the headphone jack. Still works though.
The app doesn't work on my phone and doesn't deactivate the headphone symbol at all for me and I'm stuck with a phone that can't hear my voice commands and sounds
I recommend this app too anyone! I tried it once and the 🎧 emblem/sign was gone and the sound was restored. 10/10!!!!!
I tried this app on my LG Stylo 5 and it didnt work. My phone is still on the headphone mode...please recommand better tricks please because if its on i might just get myself a new phone and throw this one away.
my phone got stuck in headphone mode find this app installed it and it would not work I highly do not recommend this app because it did not do what it said it was going to do .
Bruh this just aint working for me i tried everything and im still on headphone mode i put it on the homescreen from widgets and kept tapping it and it aint working on foe nem well i just got my stimulus check so i might just get a new phone i guess
good but I can't click it it just keeps being yellow like If I click it it will just stay yellow not to mention it took me half an hour just to get it on the home screen!
Based on the other users experience i gave 5*, i have android 10 it's installed and show the green color light on the widget but couldn't be able to swicth to on or off mode. Developer pls help me with android 10, U will become millionaire after this app because u will get lots of blessings
Doesnt work instead grad a cotton swab, take some cotton off of it. Then your going to want to put the cotton swap in the head phone jack and twist it then you should be able to hear out of the speacker without headphones
Does the job well with no problems. Simple turning headphone output on/off. No ads.
After installing the app i couldnt even add it to my home screen on my lg x charge to use it at all. Showed up in my apps list but was only good for taking up space
It helps a lot..just trying to get rid of headphones mode then i saw this on youtube..i downloaded this and reboot my phone.. it's finally goneeee thank you
Does not work at all. I followed the instructions on the video and nothing happened. The creators did nothing to make sure the app works!
I dropped my non water proof phone in the toilet. The phone went into headphone mode. This app saved it!
After installing and placing the widget on my home screen I was unable to toggle between the on and off mode.
I downloaded the app and NOTHING happened. The only option I was given was UNINSTALL. A complete waste of time.
It the best I can never ask for a better app than this all I needed to do was power off my phone and leave it there for a while and 💥 it works anyway it is the best
Didnt work for me on my stylo i thinned out a cotton swab or q tip shoved ot in the headphone jack and twisted it around as to tey and clean it worked dust gets in and messes with it
Worked wonderfully! My phone suddenly got stuck in headphone mode for no reason, I never use them. I tried every trick I found on Google but nothing worked. I found a video on YouTube recommending this app. I installed and it worked. I could hear through the speakers again. The next day the headphone icon was gone. This app was a phone saver for me. Thank you!
