Toggle Headset 2 is an app designed to correct headset detection problems that some users have reported with their Android devices. Originally, the app was created to correct issues with 3.5 mm headphone jack multi adapters on some HTC devices running Android 1.6 (Donut). Soon after it was released, some users found that it also fixed a variety of audio problems on other devices and Android versions.
If you've plugged in headphones into your Android's 3.5 mm jack and your device doesn't automatically detect them and switch your audio from the internal speakers over to the headphones, Toggle Headset 2 is an app that may help you.
You should first try to restart your phone and check to make sure the problem isn't coming from your headphones. If you're still having the problem, it's likely a hardware issue with your phone. Toggle Headset 2 works by manually switching audio output over to the headphone jack when the hardware detection on your phone isn't working properly. While the app was designed with headphone users in mind, it will also allow you to use a line-out cable or speakers to hear sound coming from your phone.
If you're experiencing audio problems on a new Android device, Toggle Headset 2 can be used as a temporary fix until you get your phone repaired or exchanged. It can also come in handy for those who have an older device that they want to keep using as a media player, but wouldn't be worth the cost of repairs.
