So i'm a very big fan of streaming music, rather than taking up a ton of space with music files on my phone. As such, i installed the grooveshark app (i'm a fan, idk about anybody else) and for some reason it would not let me log in (yes i hav the pro account). Slightly frustrated i gave up and installed the pandora app, i'm not a hater, i just prefer to be able to hear a specific song when i want, and to be able to skip more than 6 songs... Well all would be good, except pandora will immediately skip to the next song when i turn the screen off, or if i put it in my pocket, or it will stay on the song after i turn the screen off, and in my pocket, and then randomly skip. To make matters worse, once it starts, it doesn't stop, it'll make it though about 10 seconds of a song and then either pause and unpause at random intervals (up to 3 minutes of being paused or so) and then return to playing, or continue skipping. Once it hits that 6 song skip limit, it shows the toast about how you can only skip 6 songs, and then it doesn't go away, there is always another toast ready after the first disappears as if it is trying to skip that song constantly...
Additionally: Slacker Radio fails to log in as well.
In case it matters, i'm using KaosFroyo v31. Same issues whether i'm on wifi or 3g. Not sure if it's something about the pandora app, or the rom i'm using, or just the fact that i'm root, and pandora doesn't like that.
Any help would be appreciated

Odd. Pandora works fine here. Have you tried another ROM? At least you can make custom ROM backups with the phone.
Nawh, havent tried another rom yet. Aside from the streaming music issue's i'm a big fan of KaosFroyo... i did find a setting in pandora about keeping the screen on even when you turn it off (has a warning that it will drain battery life, and came auto checked) so turned that off to some success, and then if i turned the phone face down, or pulled it by the headphones, or shook it too hard, it skipped songs...

it is strange that is on both 3g and WiFi, have you tried a different rom? try it on a 2.1 or 2.2 rom. All i can think of :/
Best of luck,

I use 3 different radio apps. Pandora, last.fm and slacker. I would recommend using slacker only for WiFi. As far as having problems running apps it could be Rom based problems. Try reflashing the Rom or use another Rom. Pandora also just recently had a update so see if you have the latest version.

Could this have something to do with Verizon's mass text about ours phone's ability to purchase copyright material? I thought it was only dealing with the NFL app but the could be forging as big a ban hammer as they can under the watchful eyes of the ffc

I wasn't able to post on the dev. part of the TB forum since I don't have 10 posts, I searched and couldn't find anything that really fit my problem.
My problem; I've been on CM7 for maybe a month now and it's starting to drive me crazy. When I'm listening to the radio or music or something at work and a notification sound plays, well it doesn't really play it just makes my music go silent for a few seconds then continues to play my music. That's a little annoying but I learned to live with it, but more times than not when I get a text or any other sound that will play over what I'm listening to my sound completely cuts out and doesn't come back, I hear a sort of static sound so I have to restart my phone. I ended up disabling all notification sounds so it doesn't do that but sometimes when I even load up skype when it has that sound play it does it. What would the problem be? any help would be great, thank you so much!
A little question, this is my first time installing a rom, lets say I want to update it, I get the latest kernal, that doesn't wipe everything on my phone right? It's basically just like an update? Again thank you so much!
CM7 is amazing, thank you for putting your time and effort into making it!

installing a kernel will not wipe your rom, but installing a rom will wipe out the kernel you had previously to whatever comes with the rom. It's also better to post questions generally here than the developer's forum.
FWIW I'm on stock rooted and every now and then I'll lose the mp3 player sound (player will show its playing, but no sound from headphones or back speaker) after the phone rings or some other alert goes off, and the only way I've found to get the mp3 player to provide sound again is to reboot.
So this might problem might not be limited to CM7.
So, I just recently got a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I installed the same music application to my phone that I had before (HTC Desire). I never had a problem like this before. My problem is that, while playing music, the GPS interrupts the currently playing song (which is fine), but then there is an EXTRA interruption after this which also causes the song to play at a slight low volume, THEN return to normal volume shortly after. I remember that there was an option to enable/disable volume loudness protection or whatever and I THINK this is the culprit. BUT I CAN'T FIND THIS SETTING ANYMORE!! Does anyone know a solution to this problem? This has been bugging me for FOREVER. I use my GPS often because I often drive to locations I've never been for or barely go to, so this is a REAL pain in the buttocks. -- I also will be using it for the next few days!! :crying: So I would like to fix this, but if there's no fix, I guess I can bare through it for the next few days...
Running Serenity ROM v1.2 with Ktoonsez kernel.
EDIT: Forgot to also mention that this SOMETIMES happens with notifications and such, so I do not think it is the GPS's fault either.
EDIT2: Clarification: Want to get rid of that annoying second interruption that I mentioned earlier!! --I looked in developer options, sound, and EVERYTHING....still couldn't find it...
EDIT3: I searched online and nothing popped up useful (I think I wasn't searching with the right keywords. Kept getting results referring to headset not having any sound at all which is not right.)
So I just got my S5 yesterday, it is all stock unrooted. When listening to music in the car, between songs, there is this popping sound. Not super annoying, but still it's not very pleasant to hear. Also happens when a notification sound goes off in the middle of a song, between the end of the notification sound and when the music starts again. Anyone else have this problem?

Try resetting your phone if it stops the problem, otherwise, try flashing stock firmware, this will not trip your knox. If the issue is not resolved, return the handset for a replacement.

Are you using Bluetooth? Could be an interference somewhere or your volume on the phone is turned up too loud.

Is your phone connected to your car's speaker? Or are you just playing the music over your phone?

I have the same problem. It is not too often, but it does happen every once in a while. I notice it more when connected to car speakers (via cable, no bluetooth). I am not sure if it happens with (regular, no bluetooth) headphones.
My phone is also stock, no root or anything. I've noticed the first time I tried it. I am not sure if I need to return it or not...

It might be the cables. Though I have not experienced this with my phone, my earphones used to have the popping sounds and then one day one side just totally went off only to reconnect occasionally when I move it to a right bendy position, with the poppy sounds. So it might be the cables.
Click, pop, or stutter.

Yes, always happens when using bluetooth over car speaker system. Turning on the screen will stop it from happening. From the information I have found here and on the web, the power saving that samsung wrote to help conserve battery let's the CPU go into a low power state when the phone's screen has been off for a period of time. But if you happen to be streaming music, it will start to skip, pop, or stutter. If you turn the screen on for a short period, don't even have to unlock the lock screen, it will stop misbehaving for the same short period of time. However, if you plug your phone in while driving, you can just leave the screen on and you should not experience the problem. Hope this helps, you can google it for more information.
Pop Issue solved.
I've solved the issue. The reason that it makes a pop sound in between songs, is because when power saving mode is on, it is turning off the speaker in between songs. Just turn off "power saving" mode in your settings pull down on your Samsung, and it won't make a pop sound anymore.

I am encountering the same problem on my Verizon Galaxy S5. There is a popping noise (actually it is a double "pop pop" sound) when switching tracks (occurs in Samsung music player as well as Google Play Music). It's also noticeable when muting/unmuting the phone, and when the phone screen seems to go off. I have disabled power saving features as suggested, but the problem remains.
The problem is not noticeable on headphones (but could be due to the lower volume levels of headphones). It IS noticeable when I use the phone with an AUX cable in my car, and extremely bad on the PA loudspeaker system I use for work (I'm a dance teacher, and have generally used my phone as a music player). This is very annoying, and not what I would expect from Samsung's "flagship" phone.
I did a factory reset as suggested by Samsung tech support. Still have the problem.
I took the phone into Verizon's corporate store in SF, and the Verizon staff member recreated the problem with his own S5 too, suggesting this problem is inherent in all S5s.
What baffles me is the lack of a large number of complaints on message boards and the Samsung support forum. Doesn't anyone use their cell phone to play music at birthday parties, weddings, etc? I would have expected more outcry about this.
Any help appreciated!
Guys I am having the same issue with my S5. It is strange there is not enough complaints on it from people!
I have talked to Samsung about it and they don't believe such a huge bug!
Has any body solved this issue?
popping noise driving me mad on s5!
I have the same problem with a new s5 from 3 network. It's highly annoying and doesn't seem to matter which music player is used, power saver on or off and volume low or high on the phone or external speaker via an auxiliary cable. The same cable might I add I used for months for my S3. This just adds to annoying aspects to the s5 and I'm already looking for alternatives to Samsung even though my contract still has 23 months left! A fix for this is needed and will send the handset back for replacement if I have to!
They're was a setting inside one of the system files you could edit to help with the popping sound. I'll try to find the thread and post it up.
OK thanks. I have reluctantly factory reset and the noise is still there sometimes so others have found reset doesn't work. Will look at settings if you can find the thread.
I can't find it but I know it had to do with the mixer_paths.xml file. I'm just not sure what needed to be edited. I'll keep looking tho.
I'm having the same problem . Only when I skip to the next song and it is only out of the left channel.
Popping sound when skipping songs
Have you tried enabling the equaliser in settings under audio effects, as this has resolved the issue for me.
I have the problem as well. Its freaking ridiculous. I thought it was my music player for the longest time. I don't believe I had the issue when I first got the phone, but I really don't remember. I don't have power saving on and it doesn't happen all the time either. But it only happens at song changes or pause/unpause. I get the same double pop as nathandias described. Its bothering me a ton.
i was thinking it would be nice if people recorded the sound (standard audio cable from phone jack to line-in or mic of a computer)
it would be strange for it to be happening across such varied android versions (start of thread is when 4.4 was used, you can have 6 now with cyanogenmod, 5.1.1 from samsung, etc)
Hi,
I have the same problem, it's really annoying! I cannot understand why not much more people are complaining about this. It shouldn't be a problem in a Smartphone today! My Samsung S III didn't have this issue.
I made a video so you can see what we are talking about: Link deleted Unfortunately, I am not allowed to post a link here. You find it on Youtube entitled "Samsung S5 SM-G900F, popping sound between songs".
Did anyone find a solution? Thank you.
Hi. OP was a while ago! The solution was to use a logitech Bluetooth reciever connected to my 5.1 speaker system. Turns out it stops the annoying noise and for me with my s5 had better and louder sound quality. Well worth the purchase!
