So I got those headphones which were working just fine. But today I forgot to take them off as I was going off the computer and they pulled very hard. Then suddenly they dont work when I plug them in the jack. They make sound only if it's halfway in. So I was wondering if it broke my jack although I tested it with other headphones and they worked fully plugged. Or it's something from the plug of the headphones (maybe something bent when I stood up.

I'd say you either damaged or broke some of the little wires within the headphones.

You most likely will not be able to repair it unless decently skilled with soldering small wires to small points
