Got some expensive headphones and broke the plug and I've been too lazy to go get them fixed for a couple of years now. Now I'm listening to the rest of the video with them. I can't thank you enough.
@@ronniesantos4377 Did he/she say “Is anyone watching this because of quarantine?” No dumbass they simply asked if anyone was still watching this DURING quarantine. Holy shit I cannot believe you’re trying to troll someone on a post like this 😭😂😂 Get a life my dude
I saved two of your videos about this subject on my Watch Later playlist because I really liked your explanations. Even though I couldn't hear them. Cause, you know, my earphones just broke... This is the other one.
Just had my favorite set of ear buds go out on me tonight! GLAD i found your video, Thank you for covering the how 2's Some other channels are blaming ear wax and dirty ports, but that's not it at all. I know this will fix it. THANKS again.
This is great, I have a lot of cheap earbuds lying around and only 1 nice pair of earphones that are my daily drivers. The best thing about this is that there is no soldering involved!
That's what I used to say .. like a person working at a place that sells head phones and you ask about quality. He says well.. you could get cheapest ones for 5$ that are really thin and will break in acouple months and have the minimal sound quality possible..exaple: have no bass all voice sound fragile.. straight garbage basically. Then goes up in price and quality though 3 or 4 brands till most expensive $100 dollars top quality wav compatible. Last about 10 years comes with 3 year warranty and code you can use in a website to download any 5 free songs..😁 right. .like I can understand if one is difficult to make and comes with attachments lights features for afew more dollars.but so many all different prices. And quality on a sliding scale. Just like what I said when one of my dope connects had two different qualitys some that's not that great for regular price and some 50% more $ for. That's like the quality of his usual real good stuff that should always remain regular price cause one should always strive to get top quality for all costomers at least at the standard going rates. But ...he did say he payed extra for the better stuff. So the company probly payed more for the beats.. than the skull candies..I'm guessing..right😎
@@E.a.Z.S.e.n.T boy wtf are you talking about 😭😭 yo plug just taxing you bruh “i payed more for this batch so i gotta charge more” nah bruh he just knows you’re going to buy so he charges you more
@@bbaljeet3288 but I could never afford the better stuff at that time . Only happened 3 times with 2 different people.

I first got my sound to work, but not the mic... You didn't show properly what to do with the white wire within the copper ones. I finally figured out it had copper wires inside as well, and now it works!
Rich i just watt to tell you thank you so much. I have tried so may ways before, but you brough to the table the simple facts and tools and materials. Bro I've had these Batt Man had ponies for 1 year and today i watched , i learned, i applied and i prevaled. Bat Men head phone s brought back to life. Sharing this video.
Good video! I just repaired some $A10 earbuds with mic. They had separated at the splitter, after which the mic is on the cable to the left earbud. I thought I'd got it right, but then discovered (via a web site) that the stripey mic wire was actually a combo "copper" and blue coloured wire. I had to very carefully separate the blue and copper-strands (with a sewing pin actually), and then connect the 4 hair-thin blue ones to the thicker blue one coming from the plug. After that, copper went to join the other copper ones (ground in this case). The main point is, if you see a "stripey" wire, it's probably 2 conductors. The site I looked at showed such a cable (but RED and copper striped). I soldered everything, and bound all 3 cables together tightly before covering the whole thing in heatshrink tubing.
Thank you very much for helping me to crack the earphone code, because I tried it once but without cleaning the wires and it didn't work, but now I know so thank you!
Wow this was very helpful though I decided to solder the wires together :). You did clear instructions and I was surprised how easy it was even though I have never really worked with wires etc ! :)
i know Im asking randomly but does anyone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Brycen Emerson I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Thank you this helped me to fix my sons gamer headphones with microphone. They weren't cheap. Though I just had to cut off the damaged portion of the cord and reconnect, this helped me to get a good clean connection on these micro wires before soldering etc. Thank you!
Great video it worked for me... thank you... I had a broken headphone which has no problem with cable so i used that to repair my other headphone.. however thanks for this video 👍❣️
Very informative, but I would have liked to know the equivalent connection to the four segmented headphone jack.In other words which connector on the jack is spks rt and lt, gnd and mic.
my recommending if it does not work for some of ya is follow the wire of the earpods the jack has pulled out of to see what wire connects the microphone, in my case the blue one was for the right ear and the red one was for the microphone, colors doesnt always work in the same way. ty for help richs !
nice work but any little shift or tugging back out, but me now at home I do something more permanent and could take some shifting and tugging and accident bouncing
So the red and green wire with copper in the middle. You say just connect it. So do I un twist the red and green off and then expose the copper underneath and re twist the red and green that was already wrapped back around it and then connect it or do I just get to the center copper and and go from there
Hello Rich... Don't you think that people might get confused with the color coding of the wires within? I'd there any method that we can make sure which color wire is for what function for both the makes?
I don't understand...does the blue wire it the same as copper?...I have headset with mic on one cord that half working...The question is, can I attach or replace one cord into the 2 cord(sound and mic)?
I did this and it worked but I think I mixed up the white wire with all of the grounds because I can hear it but there’s a lot of distortion so much so that the bass frowns out the rest of the song or video and there’s a great amount of clipping going on
It happened to me several times from 2018 to 2022 and it is that they were damaged and since my mother died that day on July 28, 2021 they can no longer buy me one in the center now I do not know what to do
Sadly my headphones, AIAIAI Tracks, has a different colour coding on its wire, and I'm having hard time figuring out which wire goes where. Could you please help me figuring this out? Here are the wires: Red - Copper (twist) Blue Green Copper with Film-Protected Red Wire inside Green - Copper (twist)
Hey rich so I have a random cord with a jack on it that looks like a old headphone charger possibly idk. I’m trying to connect it to my headset but im not sire if it has a mic wire, all i see is red and blue/ Green and blue wire connected and a white wire wrapped in copper wire.
Your videos have been very informative, but I'm trying to do something a little different and I hope you can help. I'm actually trying to make my own PS4 chat cable for my turtle beach headsets. If you're not much of a gamer, basically I'm trying to fix is a single speaker (left) and mic headset. The plug is a TRRS has a red cable, a copper cable (with a green cable in center) and another red cable with a littler copper wrapped around it. I can't seem to identify the mic cable. On the turtle beach side, I have 3 cables; red (speaker), white (mic), and silver (ground).
I need some help. The wires on the working plug are the same as in the video. But the colors on my headphones are red, red copper, white copper, green copper, and green......i don't know which is which. P.s they're for my Urbeats so I would appreciate it if you could help
hey,richard... tell me how to repair samsung note 2 headphone with mic jack repair. it has 1 copper 1 green 1 red 1 black wire... suggest me the video.
So I own a pair of headphones (with a MIC) and I have it split style (if that makes any sense) and the wires consist of Green Mixed with Copper, Red, Blue, Green and bunch of other copper wire. However the other wire I'm attaching it to consists of Green, Red, Blue and Copper. I was wondering how I should connect them.
How do I identify which is which if all companies are different? I have red, green, blue, copper and a copper/red. The plug I'm trying to connect to has red, green, blue and copper.
It works but I have an red,blue,green and the brown or copper? When I connected all the wires except for the brown/copper and green, I accidentally opposite them and it suddenly increases sound into left and what I heard the most in the left headphone is the vocal and the right is the instrumental, is that ok?, it both increases the left and the right headphone.
Can you make some explanations on some types of earpiece cause i bought a cheap head phones with mic for my phone and i have to press the mic's button just to hear the sounds more clear.
Hi, I have a working headphone and a broken pair the working pair has 4 wire in it copper, blue, red, green the other one has 6 copper, red, blue, green, white, redngreen i tried what you did it work but the volume is low and it has a buzzing sound Please tell me the right wires to connect
I have a white wire which connect the microphone in the plug between the cooper wire i i cannot find the TRRS in my country can i cut the white wire and connect the the other wires without it
Hi Rich! I need your help. I have a Logitech H150 and I want to change the plug into plain TRRS. I have a couple of samsung earphones with TRRS plug, which I am planning use the plug with. I don't know how to do this right. My laptop is new, so basically I can't use the other plug on my Logitech headset. Thanks a lot!
Hi Rich, i wish to connect a TRRS jack on 1 end to 2 stereo audio sockets. I am using sony trrs plug end with wire. It has red, green, white, black & copper wire. Can you post a video how i can solder 2 sockets (1 for mic jack n 1 for headphone jack). Thanks in advance. :)
Just cut them off. They are there for insulation and to strengthen the cord. If you place a good layer of electrical tape over the wire you should be fine.
Hey..i have sony earphones with mic and it has a red wire a blue wire and a black and white wires wrap around copper wire..total of 5 when seperated And connecting a jack of skull candy which has four red green copper nd blue.. Kindly tell the combination.. Please
Hey!! I've an earphone that I intend to repair. One cable has red, green, blue and copper coloured wires. So there's no prob here. But the another cable has a red, blue, copper and copper twisted with white wires. So I'm confused what the connections should be. Please help!!!!!!!
First, untwist a portion of the copper wire from the white wire then connect in the following order: Red to Red, Green to Blue, the Blue on the first wire listed above goes with the either the white wire or the copper twisted wires Then the Copper wire on the first wire listed above goes with either the copper twisted wire or the white wire. You might have to temporarily connect some of the wires to do some troubleshooting to determine if the copper twisted wisted wire goes with either the Blue wire or the Copper Wire on the first set. Good luck!
@RichsMethods Hi. I also have a broken ear piece. But, I think the mic and plug are still working. Its just that the ear piece in the mic area is the one that's not working. And I think I accidentally pulled it. Could you please help me? Thank you. I'll wait for your reply. :)
My wires detached from the motherboard (where the microphone and volume up down, etc is located), the yellow and red (left and right) I tried taping them but they keep getting replaced. I can send pictures for further information.
On my headphones the side with the microphone is broken, and there is no short-I tried turning the jack, wiggling the cord, etc. but sound never came back-but the mic/control still works. The headphones are fairly new and I don't want to get a new pair so soon. Is there anything else besides a short it could be, and is there a way I can fix it? I am also quite careful with my headphones: I almost always wrap them nicely and gently and unplug them, but I do use them a lot and they are in my pocket a lot. Great video anyway!
There's a shortage he means if it works and u move it it doesn't work you have a shortage that's worse then what he's talking about but same thing almost
I was wondering. Say you bought a cheap pair of earphones to use as a jack, and you have high quality earphones, will that change the quality of the sound because the bottom jack is of lower quality?
I'm trying to do the above repair and marry a Samsung Plug with iphone 2nd generation ear buds. I can get music but can't the mic to work for my Samsung Note 2 I understand all the iphone wires BUT I have 2 black wires from the samsung that don't seem to do any thing Can you help?
I have the apple earphones with remote and mic that came with a 2014 iPhone 4S (headset model DTY3483A). The first problem was the play/pause button would go off randomly. Then the right speaker quit working and then the left one got a short and I have to hold the cable next to the plug for it to work. Mic and volume and next/previous controls never worked on samsung (worked fine on an iphone of course). The wires inside are red, green, red/copper striped, green/copper striped, red/green striped with copper inside, and white (from where I opened the plastic the white wasn't inside the red/green striped). What order should I connect them in? And to convert from apple (ctia) to samsung (omtp) I would just switch the 2nd R and the S?
Heey.. I have mi capsule earphone which not working, so i am opned it.... There are 5 wire one red, one green, two copper and one copper with white How i install it
Hi, im trying to follow along in your video, but my headphone wires are nothing like the ones in the video. The headphone that i'm fixing has the standard copper,green,red,green-red, but the plug im trying to connect it to has 5 wires which are copper, green, copper-green, copper-red, and copper with red inside
Take a look at your new plug. The following is the most likely set up of the plug: Top to bottom - tip, ring, ring, sleeve. Respectively this should be Left, Right, Common/Ground, and mic if under the CITA standard. They should be this way. You original headphone is set up as left is the green wire, right is the red, a wire inside the green-red is the microphone, and the copper and the green-red wires are the grounds. There should be another wire inside the green-red wire. Take a closer look. The new plug is probably setup as left is green, right is copper-red, copper with red inside (the copper portion only) is the microphone, and the Red wire inside is a ground. Connect this red wire and the other separate copper to the copper wire of the original plug. I might recommend purchasing another plug to make it easier on you. The new plug you have listed has a setup I never seen.
Yeah, it seems confusing, but I managed to find some apple mic earbuds today, so i'm gonna try to use the plug on that. Thanks for the help and explanation and great video!
Hi RichsMethods I have a Logitech H150 and I want to change the plug with my unbroken samsung earphone, since it has a TRRS plug. I wanna use it on my new laptop, and it only supports the TRRS plugs instead of the conventional 2 green and pink plugs for the headphone and mic. As I peeled of the wire on the H150, I have a green wire, a twisted red and blue, another twisted copper and blue, along with a red wire which is covered with copper and some thread. While my samsung earphones has only3 at first since there's a black wire covered in copper wire along with the red and green. Please tell me which wire should go with each other. Thanks a lot! It would really be of much help.
I tried to repair my headphones, but when I cut the cable, I got totally confused as they have 6 different wires, so I don't know which one is what.... The wire colours are green, blue, black, red, copper and a red wire covered with a whit transparent thingy...
So I'm attempting to do this myself and I have two different turtle beach headphones one has a red,green,copper,white,red and green but the other one I cut open has a slightly different copper,red,green,red and gold(?) They are both TRRS so they should work I'm just a little lost where to go next
I have a pair of Samsung headphones which had a problem with the ear loop so I decided to replace it with another ear loop. I followed the exact instructions. Since the ear loop I was trying to replace with had no speaker capabilities so I cut off the green "mic" wire. Then I exposed and cut off the insulation; burnt off the enamel with a lighter, wiped it off with my hand and then taped the two reds after winding them against each other...same dome for copper. Taped them individually too. No sound at all from the ear loop...the replacement ear loop had no problems initially...please help. I'm getting frustrated...
my headphones are celebrat..i just bought them a month ago..and two days back the left side stopped working..but the right i perfectly fine...I really do not know what to do...how to fix them or anything..although i don't think its the problem with the plug
Dear rich... Thank u so much for ur videos... Now I have a clear pic in my head... But still there is indeed a small confusion... One of my skull candy headsets got broke.... And I figured out finally that the problem is with the plug... And I wanted to replace them with an old plug of mine from an old not working headset.... So in the old plug... There were 6 wires... 2 copper wires (gnd).. A red (right ear possibly).. A blue stripped (microphone maybe) and now for the confused part... There are 2 more wires... Blue and green.... So now my confusion is... Which one is the left and what is the other one for... But in the skull candy it's pretty much straight.. A red and a copper on one wire..( for the right)... And a green... A stripped green and a copper.. ( for the left along with microphone)... So can u pls help me out.... P.S....Thank u so much for ur other videos too... I gained a lot of knowledge from'em

Hello Sir,
What is the purpose of reinforced thread inside wire. How to handle them while soldering
Just cut them off. They are there for insulation and to strengthen the cord. If you place a good layer of electrical tape over the wire you should be fine.
so could use this method to swap a 3.5mm plug to a 2.5mm plug?
Hey..i have sony earphones with mic and it has a red wire a blue wire and a black and white wires wrap around copper wire..total of 5 when seperated And connecting a jack of skull candy which has four red green copper nd blue.. Kindly tell the combination.. Please
I did everything you said in the video but when I connect it all I can hear is the music with faint vocals so I cant hear the sung parts
Hey!!
I've an earphone that I intend to repair.
One cable has red, green, blue and copper coloured wires. So there's no prob here.
But the another cable has a red, blue, copper and copper twisted with white wires.
So I'm confused what the connections should be.
Please help!!!!!!!
First, untwist a portion of the copper wire from the white wire then connect in the following order:
Red to Red,
Green to Blue,
the Blue on the first wire listed above goes with the either the white wire or the copper twisted wires
Then the Copper wire on the first wire listed above goes with either the copper twisted wire or the white wire.
You might have to temporarily connect some of the wires to do some troubleshooting to determine if the copper twisted wisted wire goes with either the Blue wire or the Copper Wire on the first set.
Good luck!
Thanks a lott!!!
Happy to have my favorite earphones working again!:-)
Pauras Jadhav That's awesome!
Is it possible to do this with the part of the ear phone that go inside the ear
@RichsMethods Hi. I also have a broken ear piece. But, I think the mic and plug are still working. Its just that the ear piece in the mic area is the one that's not working. And I think I accidentally pulled it. Could you please help me? Thank you. I'll wait for your reply. :)
Charm Ayuzawa same problem
Charm Ayuzawa Ur profile pic is Park Bo gum!!!
My wires detached from the motherboard (where the microphone and volume up down, etc is located), the yellow and red (left and right) I tried taping them but they keep getting replaced. I can send pictures for further information.
On my headphones the side with the microphone is broken, and there is no short-I tried turning the jack, wiggling the cord, etc. but sound never came back-but the mic/control still works. The headphones are fairly new and I don't want to get a new pair so soon. Is there anything else besides a short it could be, and is there a way I can fix it?
I am also quite careful with my headphones: I almost always wrap them nicely and gently and unplug them, but I do use them a lot and they are in my pocket a lot. Great video anyway!
There's a shortage he means if it works and u move it it doesn't work you have a shortage that's worse then what he's talking about but same thing almost
YOU SAVED MY LIFE BRO, realy I'm happy.
🤣
I was wondering. Say you bought a cheap pair of earphones to use as a jack, and you have high quality earphones, will that change the quality of the sound because the bottom jack is of lower quality?
It wont be noticeable unless your an audiophile who had a gold played then a cheap jack but the average person cant
I'm trying to do the above repair and marry a Samsung Plug with iphone 2nd generation ear buds. I can get music but can't the mic to work for my Samsung Note 2
I understand all the iphone wires BUT I have 2 black wires from the samsung that don't seem to do any thing
Can you help?
2020 and still a useful video. Thanks alot you saved me $40.😁
hey rich i have 3 cooper wire 1 green 1 blue and 1 red i have no clue where it goes ? :/
I have the apple earphones with remote and mic that came with a 2014 iPhone 4S (headset model DTY3483A). The first problem was the play/pause button would go off randomly. Then the right speaker quit working and then the left one got a short and I have to hold the cable next to the plug for it to work. Mic and volume and next/previous controls never worked on samsung (worked fine on an iphone of course). The wires inside are red, green, red/copper striped, green/copper striped, red/green striped with copper inside, and white (from where I opened the plastic the white wasn't inside the red/green striped). What order should I connect them in? And to convert from apple (ctia) to samsung (omtp) I would just switch the 2nd R and the S?
Can you show me how to repair microphone mic....not the speaking one.....the one which we hear the music
I have red, blue, copper and copper with something plastic white in the middle of it?
Thank you very much man, you make me save a pair of AKG headphones which I loved
Heey..
I have mi capsule earphone which not working, so i am opned it....
There are 5 wire one red, one green, two copper and one copper with white
How i install it
My problem is the wires inside the microphone in my headphone isn't working so when I plug it nothing happens. PLS HELP.
what about headphones can we do with this procedure. Using earphone jack with headphone
Thank You very much, works 100% I use different headphones but same color idea
Hi, im trying to follow along in your video, but my headphone wires are nothing like the ones in the video. The headphone that i'm fixing has the standard copper,green,red,green-red, but the plug im trying to connect it to has 5 wires which are copper, green, copper-green, copper-red, and copper with red inside
Make sure the original headphone's green-red wire doesn't have a white wire inside of it. Take the copper with red inside apart from the red wire.
Take a look at your new plug. The following is the most likely set up of the plug:
Top to bottom - tip, ring, ring, sleeve.
Respectively this should be Left, Right, Common/Ground, and mic if under the CITA standard. They should be this way.
You original headphone is set up as left is the green wire, right is the red, a wire inside the green-red is the microphone, and the copper and the green-red wires are the grounds. There should be another wire inside the green-red wire. Take a closer look.
The new plug is probably setup as left is green, right is copper-red, copper with red inside (the copper portion only) is the microphone, and the Red wire inside is a ground. Connect this red wire and the other separate copper to the copper wire of the original plug.
I might recommend purchasing another plug to make it easier on you. The new plug you have listed has a setup I never seen.
Yeah, it seems confusing, but I managed to find some apple mic earbuds today, so i'm gonna try to use the plug on that. Thanks for the help and explanation and great video!
Fixed! Thanks so much dude, burning was the key!
you've got a lot of books there behind you...just like my cup of tea.. would you please tell me the best novel /book you've read until now?
Will the play/pause next or previous features still work if i did this method?
i have a thing that i can connect my tablet to my speakers and i was woundering how can i strip it to my head phones so it can light up
Hi RichsMethods I have a Logitech H150 and I want to change the plug with my unbroken samsung earphone, since it has a TRRS plug. I wanna use it on my new laptop, and it only supports the TRRS plugs instead of the conventional 2 green and pink plugs for the headphone and mic.
As I peeled of the wire on the H150, I have a green wire, a twisted red and blue, another twisted copper and blue, along with a red wire which is covered with copper and some thread. While my samsung earphones has only3 at first since there's a black wire covered in copper wire along with the red and green.
Please tell me which wire should go with each other. Thanks a lot! It would really be of much help.
Hey there, I need to fix my beats by dre headphones. Do you know the color scheme for beats? Thanks much in advance!
how can u repair a broken headphone chord with mic? please i need answers..
Hello sir!
I must ask, Is it possible to connect regular headphones with a headphone set w/ microphone jack?
Yea but you will have a wire dangling or if the other way around the mic wont work
I tried to repair my headphones, but when I cut the cable, I got totally confused as they have 6 different wires, so I don't know which one is what.... The wire colours are green, blue, black, red, copper and a red wire covered with a whit transparent thingy...
So I'm attempting to do this myself and I have two different turtle beach headphones one has a red,green,copper,white,red and green but the other one I cut open has a slightly different copper,red,green,red and gold(?) They are both TRRS so they should work I'm just a little lost where to go next
+RichsMethods I headphones but they have 5 wires (red wire,green wire,blue wire,copper color wire and a red and white stripes) what do i do!!!
I have a pair of Samsung headphones which had a problem with the ear loop so I decided to replace it with another ear loop. I followed the exact instructions. Since the ear loop I was trying to replace with had no speaker capabilities so I cut off the green "mic" wire. Then I exposed and cut off the insulation; burnt off the enamel with a lighter, wiped it off with my hand and then taped the two reds after winding them against each other...same dome for copper. Taped them individually too. No sound at all from the ear loop...the replacement ear loop had no problems initially...please help. I'm getting frustrated...
*done
If I want to do the opposite, I mean if I use Iphones connector to my favorite old headphone then what should i do?
thank you Richard thank god for you
Would this work for dj headphones??????
Thanks, this really helped me to fix my old pair of headphones.
Glad it helped!
my headphones are celebrat..i just bought them a month ago..and two days back the left side stopped working..but the right i perfectly fine...I really do not know what to do...how to fix them or anything..although i don't think its the problem with the plug
Dear rich... Thank u so much for ur videos... Now I have a clear pic in my head... But still there is indeed a small confusion... One of my skull candy headsets got broke.... And I figured out finally that the problem is with the plug... And I wanted to replace them with an old plug of mine from an old not working headset.... So in the old plug... There were 6 wires... 2 copper wires (gnd).. A red (right ear possibly).. A blue stripped (microphone maybe) and now for the confused part... There are 2 more wires... Blue and green.... So now my confusion is... Which one is the left and what is the other one for... But in the skull candy it's pretty much straight.. A red and a copper on one wire..( for the right)... And a green... A stripped green and a copper.. ( for the left along with microphone)... So can u pls help me out....
P.S....Thank u so much for ur other videos too... I gained a lot of knowledge from'em
did anything work out????
@@TheFutureGuyGaming yup it did, i think green was for the left ear and blue was the ground
my whole connecter is coming out and i had these for 4 years what do i do with that
Will this work with headphones that don't have a mic?
What happens if I connect a plug with microphone to a headphone with no?
THANK YOU SIR YOU SAVED MY 2500 RS.... PLZ KEEP MAKIN THESE TYPE OF VIDEOS
