I'm not sure if you're still active on this thread. but i'm one of the many with the headphone jack issue. i opened it up. and one of the screws was out, so i screwed it back in and closed it up. the problem wasn't fixed. so my next step is to check that c-shaped grip and try and make it tighter. before i do it, i was wondering if you, or anyone else who reading this who knows, can give me any tips on not messing the jack up more. i didn't remove or look at the inside of the jack when i took it apart previously. any advice is greatly appreciated. thanks in advance!
