can I solder a new 3.5mm female into my phone?
the speakers work alright, but whenever I use headphones the audio is crackled and distorted.
I have tried multiple phone roms and headphones.
any advice?
Thank you for your time.
You can, ifixit and instructables have guides but it usually takes some fine solder work

Look on ebay for your phone with a broken screen, they are cheap, transplant the entire pcb the jack is connected to. If you use apple your fucked.
The headphone jack is usually a seperate detachable piece from the phone that you can buy for like 4 bucks from any vendor.
Even if it isnt detachable its worth having a look for the same phone models jack piece so it fits snug with the rest of the phone.
