IPhone 5c earphone jack not working?

Does anyone know if there's a way before I go to spend money to get it fixed, to try and fix it?
Please let me know if anything has worked for you!

Pocket lint and dust is always a culprit. Spray canned air down the hole. Restart the phone. If that's no good, have you dropped it? That will short out a headset jack. Best luck.

  • Why isn't my iPhone headphone jack not working? My not even a month old iPhone 6s headphone jack isn't working. I will plug in my headphones and the sound isn't being played in the headphones and is still playing as it should without anything plugged in, I have tried other earbuds and headphones but they do the same. Does anyone know what's wrong?
  • Headphone jack I just drilled in my iPhone 7 is not working what do I do? I saw a YouTube video showing me how to drill a new headphone jack into my iPhone 7 now only half of the screen works is this normal?
  • My iPhone left earphone stopped working? I have the iPhone earphones that shaped to fit in your ear. I was listening to music when all of a sudden, a static noise started coming from the left earphone. Then the music stopped playing in my left earphone, but still playing in the right. I had these earphones for awhile, just recently the external control/mic stopped working. Is there any way to fix this?
  • My iPhone 4 earphone socket isn't working? The earphones are walking perfectly fine. I know this because they are normal on other devices. The socket hasn't got dust in it.
