Why does my iPad randomly think there are headphones plugged in?
Ok so before I close it up I should investigate this.
I get no sound from the iPad because it seems it thinks I have headphones plugged it. The socket looks clear, nothing broken off in there, when I remove the ribbon cable, no change. But when I plug the ribbon cable back in, sound comes back for a few minutes then.. Presto. It thinks I have headphones plugged in again!
What can I do to resolve this?
Is this a good question?

I just pushed down on the cable about half way up and the problem went away so I'm inclined to agree. It does move the socket too though so I hope they didn't try to flip up the wrong side of the connector..
Mystery solved though, let's see what fixes it permanently.
Thanks!
