Alternative to the deprecated AudioManager.isWiredHeadsetOn?

Question

The method AudioManager.isWiredHeadsetOn() is deprecated from api level 14, how do we now detect if a wired headset is connected?

Try this solution. It's working in my case. May be this helps you!

IntentFilter iFilter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_HEADSET_PLUG);
Intent iStatus = context.registerReceiver(null, iFilter);
boolean isConnected = iStatus.getIntExtra("state", 0) == 1;
