Other SmartphonesSamsung A5 2017
The button on my headphones stoped working after phones system updated a few weeks ago. (Button not able to start/stop music any longer)
Wondering if it is a bug with the Samsung software or that the button must be "re-activated" somehow?
This thread problem is solved, if the solution did not work for you, it is probably that your problem is similar but not the same, you should rather create a new thread as it is unlikely that anyone will add more alternative solutions to this one, as they should not mix in solutions not related the original problem.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Other SmartphonesSo I solved my issue the following way:
1. Restart.
Did not work.
2. Uninstalled all apps that would playback music / use the button to start/stop anything. (For example Spotify)
Restart.
Install the apps I wanted.
Restart.
Worked!
Note that I also cleaned out the jack socket in the phone, lots of dust and stuff gets trapped in there.

Other SmartphonesAs a process of elimination to rule out the phone or earphones can you try your set in another phone and your set in another phone.
Daily Driver > Samsung Galaxy s²² Ultra 256Gb in Phantom Black.
The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.
I'm here to help.

Other SmartphonesI also have the same issue since running an update this past weekend. No functions are working on earphone buttons and the mic seems to be disabled so I'm not able to make calls from earphones/headsets. This is a big problem for me, please fix asap...
