Today I finally loaded all my PSX and N64 ROMs from my N1 to my GTab, and then started to play.
I first noticed the problem with FPSE when I went into settings. There would be fairly loud "pops" from the tablet, and it seemed to happen at irregular intervals. It continues to happen while I'm in settings, although when I go back to playing it's fine again. The same problem with N64oid: only in settings.
I'm fairly sure it's the speakers (what else could make such a noise?!) but what puzzles me is that even with all volumes muted it doesn't stop.
It wouldn't be such a problem of it weren't so loud, as it almost sounds like the speakers will explode.
Anyone else running VeganTab GE with the same problem? Would you be able to try replicate it if you have either FPSE or N64oid?
I noticed the same thing the other day when I was in connectbot trying to fix my build.prop
I had the same issue running 5.1 and now I am stuck at the viewsonic boot screen after trying to install vegan ge rc-1.
It also seemed to pop with the original viewsonic ui and I had an elocity before this and it did the same thing. I think it is a android issue but I am a noob and know nothing!!
I couldn't get fpse to work on my last Rom will try later today and see if I can replicate.

My droid would use whatever BT headset (stereo or not) for the phone when my headphone jack was also in use (to use car stereo) for audiobook player.
I have new Fascinate and I swear it did the same until I rooted it. Regardless, it will be close to a deal breaker if I cannot find a solution to this.
Even if the headset indicator is ON, the sound still goes to the headphone jack, RIDICULOUS
In my opinion, plugging into headphone jack should only take over media type output (music, audiobook player, video) and LEAVE PHONE ON BLUETOOTH. We should at least be able to chose this behavior in a setting.
So is this a Samsung screwup? do other Samsung devices behave this.
How hard would it be for a dev to build an app to FIX this on Fascinate.
I thought I was the only one with that situation... I would love to know the answer/fix, however I have a feeling someone will be by soon to move this to the general forum...
I actually wanted the opposite. Overall, I liked how bluetooth was handled on my old chocolate and was surprised by the differences in eclair. I expected my bluetooth to be able to grab all audio, regardless of what apps were running. For instance I wanted to use my BT with a fring call. Seemed sensible!
Anyway, I went searching, and the prevailing opinion was that bluetooth was locked up until Froyo (and tightly tied to actual calls).
Does anyone know if audio is handled in a gracefully way in current AOSP or CM?

I believe that my Droid 1 behaved my desired way on 2.1 and 2.2, can't remember if I used this way on 2.0...
I was assuming this was a 'problem' on Fascinate or Samsung, not android OS in general.
I thinj its a problem with fascinate. I was driving for 5 hours last week and I had bluetooth connected to my garmin and used one of those cassette thingies to play music from my fascinate. Sometimes I were able to talk without unplugging the headset.
Another reason I suspect its fascinate is cuz when I use my old blackberry headphones I have unplug and replug to use it for conversations.
Btw whats good stereo heaphones with mic that works with the fascinate?

I have a friend with a Vibrant and his apparently does NOT have this problem, so I am wondering if a Bluetooth file from his system might work on my phone.
There are 3 BT files in system dump:
BT OPP
BT services
BT test mode
so is one of these the file that would determine what path audio would take in any given situation? (e.g. headphone jack occupied while BT headset connected, desired paths media>headphone phone>BT)
I REALLY need to fix this before my 30 days are up or phone probably going back.
I got my hopes up when I discovered the 'secret menu', but I don't see any setting in there that seems appropriate.
I've tested with the superclean 0.7 DL30 rom and this same problem still exists
Please let me know if anyone finds a solution.

stupid ass samsung friggin morons!
It looks like this is a problem on other Samsung Galaxy S phones as well, see a thread and app someone made in the Epic forums.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842571
it is just the phone app
this problem is extremely frustrating. if i have headphones plugged in the mic works just fine. the mic is only turned off when i use an AUX cable. It would be nice to be able to drive and not have to worry about unplugging the AUX cable everytime I wanted to use my phone.
I downloaded the Epic app they made over there but all it did was hard lock my phone with my first test. I dug into the code but I'm a wee bit over my head so I'll hit up the books and see if I can't work with the guy who made the Epic one to see about getting it working with our phone.
This was with the .7 superclean DL30 rom, I'd love for someone else to try one of the other DL30 roms and see if they have any better success.
I contacted the author of the app and he replied back stating he had a buddy with a fascinate test it and it worked fine and that it might be an issue with the busybox version included with the .7 superclean 2.2 rom I was running and that it relied on busybox having the pidof command. Later tonight I'll dig into this a bit more and post back hopefully a fix and instructions on hwo to ensure this is working
I got this working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842571
The Froyo version works just fine on the original DL30 leak and on rubiks .3 DL30 but does NOT work on DL30 super clean .7 or .9. In .7 I got a hard lock that I had to do a battery pull to fix and in .9 the app ran and looked like it worked, but the audio routing did not change as expected.
All credit to cicada, I did nothing more than test it
I have not tested this on any 2.1 ROMS

I am on original DL30 leak and did NOT work for me... at least with Ambling Book Player. Not sure if it matters what app we are using to play media file. It shouldn't, but this whole problem should not exist. SAMSUNG morons!
Ok so i tried with my Rubiks DL30 ROM installed. The app opens up, no FCs or bricks or anything, but it doesn't work. I had my wife call me when i was driving, I picked up and she said she could hear me but I still couldn't hear her. I'm assuming that the car's mic is functioning but it still doesn't fix the issue. Is there a bluetooth adapter out there i can stick in the aux jack? Well i guess the first question should be, can the phone handle having two BT devices connected at the same time? i.e. hands-free calling and BT audio adapter
I'd say maybe try another full wipe and re-flash. I've switched over to the superclean EB01 roms, currently on 2.3 and hasn't had any issues with this working on 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3. I did have 2.2 initially not function with this tool, similar to what you reported above with it looking like it was working but not actually doing anything but a full wipe and reflash did the trick.
ok... thanks, at least you've run into that problem so i'm willing to give it another go. I'm currently on SC 2.4 so i guess i can be your guinea pig
I'm on SC 2.4 currently and had it stop working on me again. At work now but I'm going to try setting the app off and then back on, I have had to do that sometimes when flashing as the files get overwritten. This was working properly in SC 2.3
Hey man, thanks for the updates and info... you're really like the ONLY person that's giving me any hope on this. I thought the compatibility issues were busybox related? So I don't see why it wouldn't work on SC2.4
Would someone please fix this on Fascinate... ? pleeeeezzzzzz
Would anyone know of a reason why Plants vs Zombies would not work properly on a rooted thunderbolt?
I played the game last night on a stock Thunderbolt. After I rooted it this morning it continues to go into a loading screen as if i hit the home screen and jumped back into the game.
I'm rooted and it works for me although the game will randomly shut down while I'm in the middle of playing

Have you tried clearing the data? (yes you will lose your progress I believe, but it might work.) If not maybe reinstall it and see if that may fix the problem. Haven't had any problems with it over here so not sure. What rom/kernel/OC speed (if any) are you running?
das bamf 1.6 (just received a replacement TB). So after i rooted it i jumped back to restore point via clockwork. The whole thing appeared to have no problems, but i know of a few minor things wrong with it that were not like this before the replacement. I've tried over clocking it to see if that could fix the problem but still not success. Also I've tried the das bamf 1.7, i've cleared all the cache and so on. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled the game a few times
Damn, sorry, not sure what is wrong. I'm running BAMF 1.7 Remix, and it's working fine for me. Maybe try redownloading it, I highly doubt it was corrupted when downloading, but then again, stranger things have happened
I'm having no issues on Slayher's latest release of CM7.
me too.
I'm having major problems playing plants vs zombies also.
I start the game up and then I can't set the phone down... I try... but my hands instantly reach down and pick the phone back up.
I have a very similar problem with the game hex defense.
I'm running DAS BAMF 1.6 as is my girl friend and she is experiencing the exact same problems.
I can't get the app to run at all on my TB.
Running Liquid Thundersense. (thinking of switching ROMS.. still looking for that magic combo that won't randomly reboot 4 times a day while i'm at work)
Well I managed to get it going...I guess that since I took one of my backed up roms from ky original TB and restored it on a new one it some how caused a conflict with select apps. I went back, flashed an all new das bamf Rom from scratch and every thing is now working on my phone.
PS what a pain in the ass it was since I didn't have a titanium back up of all my stuff. 4 hours later I finally had everything re-downloaded. The birch is I still haven't had ti3 to re-set up my home screens.

Hello Folks,
I just replaced my old Droid Eris (that I took swimming) with a Samsung Fascinate that I bought from a guy on Craigslist.
The phone is in pretty great shape, and it is wonderfully faster than my old Eris was (especially after it went swimming).
The stock rom was disgustingly hogged by VZW and M$, as I'm sure you all know. I am currently running PowerWashedGB on it, and it is fabulous.
I am having a problem however with audio dropping out during streaming, and am trying to decipher whether it is software or hardware related.
Does anyone else have problems with audio dropping when streaming? Works great when read off a disk. I went back to the VZW stock rom to see if it had to do with PWGB, but the problem persisted.
Does anyone know a way I can pick this problem apart, and if there is a different radio/modem I could try flashing? Everything else on the phone works great, even data for the most part, just not stable enough to hold a steady stream (drops every 30 seconds or so for about 5-10 seconds).
Thanks guys.

Do a *228 options 1 and 2 and let the phone reset. If the problem persists: does it happen with only one streaming app or with all of them. If it's all of them try streaming with the charger plugged in to check if it's a voltage issue with the screen off. Lastly, does it happen with the screen off or on or both ?

Thank you for your quick reply. Setting the phone to reprogram seems to have fixed the issue, I've been streaming about a half hour now with no problems, which is far more than was working previously.
Running one of the latest nightlies on cm7. Can anyone fire it up and see if it behaves as such for you? Works fine on my evo3d, but not nook sadness.
This might not help much, but it is working fine on my NC w/ 7.1 stable.
i appreciate it, i might have to drop back to get it working. i thought it may have something to do with slingmedia releasing a 'tablet' version of the app and nixing devices with high resolution but that doesn't seem to be the case
OK so I've had my HOX+ for about a month having moved on from the Apple empire and for the most part I love the phone. There are a few annoying things I've noticed and after much time searching forums, contacting HTC and all that jazz haven't found a good answer yet. So I figured I'd just try asking and getting some opinions here. My disclaimer is that I'm still 100% stock and not quite ready to dive into root and custom ROMs yet
Issue #1 - that damn BT call audio issue - Has anyone found a fix for the BT issue so everyone I talk to in my car doesn't sound like they are talking with their phone in their mouth? I spent a week working with HTC on this and all I ever got was the standard "we're sorry to hear about your issue, working to resolve, blah blah blah"
Issue #2 - I've recently noticed a issue with audio pausing and the phone being slow to respond from unlock when playing music. PowerAmp seems to be the worst culprit but I've noticed this a little with Double Twist also. I've tweaked my audio settings in PA to use the "huge" buffer and highest thread priority. Turning Beats off didn't seem to help either.
Any feedback welcome, thanks.

For the audio issue i also do have that problem.. little minor pauses.. but quite annoying.. tried different music players but there was no difference.. I also have a bigger problem actually.. the headphones output are not equal.. one is higher than the other.. tried different headphones.. but na.. nothing has changed..

Yeah that sounds almost exactly like my problem, little minor pauses most of the time (which to me is kind of annoying) and every so often a longer pause of like 4-10 seconds. I ended up having my phone go into a sleep of death last night so I rebooted and also ended up removing the Double Twist widget I had up when I was checking out different players. Today the pause issue seemed better but still not 100% so I'm starting to suspect something (widget or otherwise) I'm running is maxing out the CPU or something.
Haven't noticed any balance issue though, what player are you using? I know in PowerAmp and I'd imagine others there is a balance control...could just be off a bit or if nothing else you might try adjusting it to compensate till you find a solution.
Stock based and aosp roms have Bluetooth fixes.
You can't fix anything yourself unless u root, otherwise wait for a carrier update that may never come.
Will also fix any slow performance issues you might be having, even more so with a custom kernel.
Never experienced issues with Bluetooth myself tho.

I am having the same audio issue. I'm using N7 player. It sucks. I thought it was just the player but then It started happening on pandora too. does this quick pause only happen on AUX? I haven't tested to see what happens with bluetooth audio streaming. Only happens/has been tested happening with AUX.
This happens on the latest viper rom for one x+ att
We should fix this!
use Zplayer

I have had same problems with music, tried Zplayer which solved the issues... my phone is on stock rom ...
Had a chance to do some heads down work and played music for the better part of 4 hours. The pause issue is still there with Double Twist, but nowhere near as bad when I was running stock. Very minor now bit still apparent. My PowerAmp trial ran out so I can't test it. Might try Player Pro even though I'm not crazy about it.

I have noticed minor pauses in music at the same spot when walking down my road towards my house. Due to it happening in roughly the same spot, I have put this down to my home WiFi connecting and/or my Vodafone Sure Signal signal booster being picked up as the primary network connection for calls etc.
I have no idea if my thoughts are correct, but is this something anyone else has tried or even thought about? My phone is currently fubar'd so I can't test it atm.
I hv tried few ROMs and concluded that its the stock kernel's processor settings on sleep mode, I installed cm 10.1 with blade kernel and changed minimum CPU frequency at bit higher level and music plays perfectly fine... I hope this could help others.

Yes, I have found that the audio pause issue seems to be related to connecting to a wifi spot. It still happens when wifi is turned off though, so although they are related, it's not the cause.
I definitely think it has to do with the clockspeed of the device when it is idling.
I notice the audio pauses when,
The screen is left on and the orientation changes
pause frequency changes depending on the player
When connecting to a wifi access point/scanning for one
Someone take this information and e-mail HTC. I was going to call them, but I don't have the time to deal with all of this stuff right now. College finals are next week.
EDIT: managed to give HTC a call. They suggested poweramp and said that they were working on a proper fix. I don't have the time to test to see if power amp solves the issue just now, but it's always good to hear other people's experiences/devices specs. So let me know your device specs and what you know about this issue!
