This is something which you should figure out by yourself. As a developer (in theory) you should not care what the hardware is, but what features it supports. This is the case with the headset- you're most likely able to detect some vendor string of the headset.

Here's some workaround you could try to guess the jack type: - You should be able to extract device info. Something like in here: Get Android Phone Model programmatically - Then keep a list of the device -> jack port to "extract" that information.

Keep in mind this would be a tedious work and won't be able to detect jacks in 100%.

If you provide more context on why do you need exactly the kind of port, someone might give a better suggestion.
