So a couple days ago my headphones started acting weird and was only playing audio from the right ear. I immediately looked up the problem and looked at a bunch of different forums and I couldn't get it fixed. I tried using my headphones on my phone and it worked completely fine, audio from both ears, so its something wrong with my pc. I also tried using my earbuds with my pc and the same thing, only audio from the right ear. I opened up my pc to see if the front panel connectors were out of place, but they're totally fine. Also I have the Logitech g230.

Check the audio device manager. See if the output is selected to come from right side. Restore the default settings. There should be a slider between left and right, keep it in middle.

I tried doing that and no luck, it says that everything should be working fine but nothing has changed.

often a silent side of the headphones indicate a torn cable or connection to the cans, are they under warrenty?

Edit, saw that you tried some earbuds as well... Might be dust or dirt in the front panel connectors. Tried connecting to your motherboard on the back?
