Sometimes inserting the headphones would cause my phone to redial my last call.
On advice from this thread, I re-inserted the headphones several times (dozen?) and finally the headphone icon went away. Perhaps cleaning the headphone jack with a can of compressed air will help. I do keep my phone in my pocket, so I assume lint and dirt could cause problems.

I had this happen to me a few days ago and soft resetting the phone didn't help. I searched the internet and found an answer in some other forum. It might not work for you but it worked for me the first time. This seems to happen when you have the headphone AND the charger plugged in at the same time. When you unplug the headphone before unplugging the charger, sometimes it'll stay stuck on headphone mode and you'll see the headphone indicator in the notification bar at the top. Soft resetting the phone will not fix this.
To fix this, first plug the headphone and the charger back into the phone, then unplug the charger first, then lastly unplug the headphone. As I said it worked for me the first time. Hope it helps someone!
