Something stuck in audio jack

[AC Question]

So I got this thing stuck in my audio jack and it's stuck real bad. I've tried most common things such as a toothpick and a nail but nothing works. Help please...

Welcome to Android Central! What kind of thing? Is it hard or soft? Try some fine-point tweezers.

It's just like a bead, hard and there's some space on two sides.

I'm the thread owner btw, had to create an account to reply :S

That might be tough, if it's lodged in tightly. If you use tweezers, make sure the points are very fine--otherwise, you may just shove it in deeper. A lubricant like WD40 might be helpful, but I can't tell you if it would cause any problems with using the jack later.

Do you think if I could turn it in somewhere, they may be ablet to fix it?

Probably, but of course you'll have to pay for it.

It might be easiest to simply replace the jack; They usually just pop out with no special skills required.

I haven't viewed this video yet but have a look for yourself and see what you think:

Thanks, but that seems to be a little too advanced for me...
