The issue arrises when I disconnect the magnetic headphone adapter. From that point on, the phone still thinks that the headphones are still connected. If I try to make a call, I can not switch the audio control away from headphones, thus I can't hear the caller.
The only solution that I have found is to completely reboot the device.
Any solutions for this issue?

Oh geez, here we go again with "stuck in headset mode" problems with webOS hardware. I am very sorry to hear that, mapenn. You're the first user I know of with this problem since the days of the Sprint Palm Pre. I thought that HP/Palm fixed that problem is later hardware releases. Guess not. On the Palm Pre phone it was actually a hardware problem with the headphones jack. But on the Veer, you don't have a built-in headphones jack, it's on the magnetic adapter. I wonder if the magnetic adapter is going bad? I know this is improbable, but do you know anyone who also has a Veer? I'd like to see if you can test another magnetic adapter on your phone.

Did anybody figure out a solution to this? I really like the Veer, but my wife and I are both having irritating little problems with it. I did a full doctor on it over the weekend and it didn't fix the stay-in-headset-mode problem. I use the magnetic adapter in the truck to listen to podcasts, but then I can't answer the phone without rebooting. The wife's Veer's keyboard doesn't light up and her screen will stay black after a call not letting hang up.
