Solution

  • AudioManager has private method which is accessible using reflection.

    AudioManager manager = (AudioManager) aContext.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
        try {
            int deviceType = AudioSystem.DEVICE_OUT_WIRED_HEADSET;
            // turn off headset
            int state = 0;
            Class<?> cl = Class.forName("android.media.AudioManager");
            Method method = cl.getMethod("setWiredDeviceConnectionState", new Class[] {
                    Integer.TYPE, Integer.TYPE, String.class });
            method.invoke(manager, new Object[] { deviceType, state, "device" });
        } catch (Exception e) {
            iLog.error("disableHeadset, exception {}", ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace(e));
        }
    

    All voice passes to earpiece instead headset
