Headphone jack issue

[I like MP3s]

One thing I did notice on my new GP5 is when I tried the FM Radio app and set up my four presets, it tells me the headphones aren't connected. When I connect the included earphones or my other ones, and try to play the radio, it still say the same thing. No radio at all and not even coming through the built in stereo speakers. Anyone else having the same issue? Any fixes?

Had a similar problem with an old set of Sennheiser PX-100. Had to clean the headphone plug VERY well. Try some alcohol and a paper towel.

You have to click choose the frequency and store it in one of the four boxes (can't remember how!) then click that box.

How to do that is set the frequency dial to your choice of station and then press one of the free boxes. That will store it. Also, I thought it was just four preset boxes too until I realize you can swipe it to the left and you will have four more preset boxes for a total of eight. Very nice and just another feature on the GP5 I just learned about.
