Headphone jack not seated at 0 or 180 degrees, fully seated at 90 and 270 degrees

[Android Central Question]

I have a OnePlus 5 and have been experiencing issues with my headphones not being seated properly in the jack. It doesn't seat in one position, but if you rotate it a quarter turn, it seats nice and snug. Rotate it another turn and it comes out. Rotate it another and you're back to nice and snug.

Why is my headphone jack acting weird when it is aligned a certain way?

Have you tried another set of headphones? Does the jack have the same response? If you get the same issue for all 3.5 jacks, then you may have an issue with the port. If there is a difference between the jacks, it probably is in the jack. Either way, Tweet OnePlus Support.
