If other similar type headsets have the same issue, I would say your only real choices are to try a complete phone reset after having performed a backup of course, or taking it into an Apple Store as it's possible that the headphone jack could be defective. JMO.
Best regards, Rick Alfaro From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Lemly Sent: Saturday, September 14, 2013 3:30 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: iPhone 5 and Inconsistent Headset Remote Results I'm looking for some suggestions for correcting a problem I'm having with my Apple Earpods that came with my iPhone 5 and use of its remote and volume buttons. Often, when using the earpods, neither its volume or remote buttons do anything. However, if I power off my phone, when I power it back on, I note that the volume on reboot seems a bit louder which always foretells that the earpod buttons will then work. This rebooting doesn't always work the first time but eventually the earpod button functions return but alas the cycle always repeats. I've tried other earpods with buttons and they seem to work even less frequently including a replacement earpod set I got from Apple under warranty. I'm not a big fan of resetting my phone and am even less inclined to consider a phone replacement since I'm not convinced this isn't purely a headset issue. I am running iOS 6.1.4 and thought I'd throw this out there since there are many smart folks on this list and I'm seeking ideas. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
