I have a rooted Thunderbolt phone (Das BAMF Remix 1.6.3, running at the kernel it came with (2.6.32.21.bamf_4.4.7-g21c0620-dirty (by a adrynalyne #1)), as well as WidgetLocker and Launcher Pro. I am trying to use the default music player, and every time my phone locks or I try to use other apps, my music player stops playing. I tried looking through every setting and I cannot figure out how to make my music either play in the background while I use it or continue playing even after the screen locks. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Not sure, I thought there was a setting for that. Maybe try flashing a different kernel? Try this one if you want - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021404
I will probably try that later tonight, thanks! Does anyone know any other possibilities of why this would happen?
Kernel did not work... Any other suggestions?

An issue I keep having with the music player (HTC Sense) is if I'm playing music for a while and then try to wake up the phone to do anything else, the phone freezes. The music continues to play but in order to stop it or do anything else requires a battery pull and reboot.
Anyone else have this issue?
Anyone discover a resolution?
Any recommendations on an alternative music player?
Will removing the default player cause issues with the OS?
I've heard of issues if you're underclocked with screen off. Is that your case?

My OC settings were 710/245 so I changed them to 710/528 and will see if that helps.
1) Would this: http://www.tombom.co.uk/blog/?p=124 work on the Fascinate?
2) The music player on my phone keeps FCing randomly. It happens most often when I try to use scrolling menus. (Such as playlist) It happens with both the default player and with Winamp. (I am running Kaoscinate v7)
Any help would be appreciated.

The problem with the force close issue can be attributed to the Kaoscinate rom. It has many force close issues with many different apps. And it will continue to until kaos can find the time to fix these issues. Flash jt's CM7 alpha 3, it is the exact same rom except it has almost none of the bugs that kaosinate has. It has all the same good stuff and no force close issues that I have come across. I'm not to sure about your other question.
Hi All:
So I've checked the different threads / forum topics and while some users have reported this issue on certain ROM's Q&A sections, I dont belive this to be a specific ROM issue as I have installed 2 different ROMS (VeganTab 7.1.0 and CM7 REPACKED - currently on CM7 repacked both ROMs are BL.2). I believe both roms are based on the same verison of droid.
With both ROMs, I;ve tried the following:
ISSUE:
With the newest Pandora installed, play a station. The 1st song plays fine, the 2nd song, play reaaaaallly slow. If you press the skip >> button, the next song play fine, the 4th song will play very very slowy
FAILED TO FIXES
1 - Change ROMS, by NVFlashing DETOX (on goodintentions website) partioning the hdd, doing wipes and flashing ROMs
2 - Cleared Data on Pandora, uninstalling Pandora and redownloading from the market
3 - restoring Pandora from TiBU, clearing Data and relog in.
On another note, I've notice HULU, doesnt play as well as it used to in a Default Browser, Dolphin and Puffin. You can start a show in any of them, video play back is choppy (audio is fine) and after the 1st commercial, the browser will freeze and lock up the device.
Other than that the both ROMS work fine but am looking for input on the issue to remain on these new versions of droid.
Thanks
anyone else experiencing these problems?
I have all these issues and would love to find a fix for it...
Im using VeganTab Ginger Edition right now, when playing Hulu the video will get choppy but the audio plays fine
When this happens sometimes the video will simply stop playing or switch to a black screen
the video will stop everytime the show starts up again after a commercial
sometimes the commercials will even have the video stop playing
If I change the video quality, switch from 288 to 360 to 480 and between when the video stops playing or freezes the video will return
I recently switched to vegan-ginger 7.1. I have the pandora issue but have not tried hulu yet.
I think a lot of them are having the pandora issue but have not seen any fixes for it.
I got the issue after 7.1 also - initially not every other song but in an attempt to resolve the problem I installed latest version Pandora app. Now the symptoms have worsened and I have the same issue - every other song plays slowly.
I tried installing the Hulu app - it plays OK but low res. Netflix did play one movie fast motion, but I did not associate this with the pandora issue and did not look closely.I have not had a repeat. Crackle and Youtube seem OK also.
I tried same fixes as nyciz - NG. Will try factory wipe this w/e - but to be frank i'm kinda getting tired of messing with it. Has anyone found a music app that is as good as pandora that works on vegan 7.1?
Ok so I got my issue resolved but it was by loading the older Vegan 7.0.0
This isn't a true fix but I get hulu and Pandora working.
Caution, this version has issue with new market. I froze old market with TiBu to resolve.

I have heard it is GB... but i run GB on my SGS4G and have no issues with Pandora. I don't want to role back to the earlier Vegantab.
I had "fixed" it once, unfortunately, i don't remember what i did.. (big help i know) If i am not mistaken, i used a difference kernel with the Vegan ROM... I have since tried a few diff ones to to avail.
I guess either the devs don't see this as an issue, or they aren't having it. Pandora is HUGE for me, i use it all the time... would love to have it working on my Tab...but i lack the patients, time, and knowledge to try to find a fix... HELP US DEVS AND ALL YOUR AWESOMENESS!
Pandora Songs Playing Slow as Well
I have a Viewsonic GTablet running CyanogenMod 7, internet solely through wifi, and I'm experiencing the same issue. I thought at first that Pandora was running a slow version of the song but I was mistaken. The first song will play normal and whenever I skip to the next song, the new song will play fine but if I leave it alone, it will play slow. Netflix is the only other streaming app that I've used and it hasn't had this issue. I'm extremely new to the Android platform so any help would be highly appreciated.
It's a bummer since I love Pandora.
Like I said in my post, either no one who has the knowledge to fix it cares, or they simply aren't having the issue.

Same issue with Pandora
I'm having the same issue with Pandora playing every other song slowly. Currently running Cyanogenmod 7.1.0.1. If I go back to running 7.0.3 then the Pandora app works fine. I've gone back and forth several times. I've tried removing data and uninstalling the app, but when I reinstall I get the same problem. I had wondered if it were something with the renaming on the device from harmony to smb_a1002, so I tried to change the build.prop. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get any where with the problem.
Any input or help that we can get would be greatly appreciated.
Had no issues running Pandora on non Ginger Vegan. Updated to 7.1 yesterday and am having the exact 'slowness' issues stated above.
Amazon Cloud player is NOT having any speed/slowness issues...
Regular device music/playlist plays fine.
Any fixes yet for Pandora??
Nope, no one seems to care...I sold my g-tab... lol

Ok guys and gals I think I found a fix:
I sideloaded the new pandora (not on market, just google it) Pandora 1.5.4 Black version. It seems to work fine with no slow down of the songs at least all day...will edit if it fails.
EDIT: AGGGHH it did it again I notice it works fine if you skip but if you let it naturally go to the next song it slows down. It was working fine earlier.......ok I give up....
Did not work for me either. Thanks for posting

I know for a fact that Pandora 1.5.14 works just fine on Vegan 7.0.0
ok i dont know if there is a fix and i had tried to find, but everytime i reboot i have have to open my audio play, whether it be google music or mog or any music player and then i have to kill it then reopen and music works. does anyone know of a fix for this to avoid in having to open and kill it on every reboot? thank u,
I cant be the only one with this prob. Come on
I cannot honestly say I have heard of anyone on JB that has such an extensive issue with Audio...
I have run JB since I got the device and besides some early issues that have already been resolved... it was still never as bad as your experiencing!
I can only say to try and go back stock 100%, then once you have go through samsung kies and do the emergency firmware restore/wipe thingy, then try going back to a freshly downloaded copy of the JB rom of your choice...
Sorry your having so many issues
It is actually only when i play music from the device not streaming. I flashed the same rom on a stock ics note and they have the same issuez.

That was really hard to read.
Are you saying that you have no sound upon booting, until you open a music file?
If so, what music effect apps do you have installed? Check in the sound panel, inside the settings app.
Do you have Volume+, MusicFX, or Volume Boost? Anything like that?

when i open up google music, i click on a file and it just hangs, until i kill the app reopen then the file starts up normal, this happens everythine i reboot i have to do this after i do that its fine until i reboot again, also when i stream music it is just find its only when i play music on the device, this also does the same with MOG
Audio hang on i717 with Jelly bean
I have the same problem but not with every music app. Power amp works no problem but the apps I use for audio books Mort Audio Book Player or Smart Audio Books do not work unless i force close and then reopen. I have sometimes avoided the problem by opening a book in an alternate method so I suspect it may be something related to how the apps store the position in a track.
I also had problems with Map my run a run tracking app that can announce when you have run a certain distance. Map my run would capture audio focus and never release it. So my music would go silent until reboot. I am running CM10 stable but think I'll go back to CM9 becuase i use the audio book apps a lot and am too impastient and easily irritated to keep having to force close the apps. I have even had to battery pull on occasion but probably only because I was too impatient for the phone to come back online.
I don't use my tb for music very often but i just noticed that when I have headphones in and start a song at my desired volume level, when the song changes (either on its own or when i change it) the volume will jump up to almost full blast. Scared the crap out of me the first time. As soon as I press the volume down it jumps back down to the previous level. It will do this continually. Can anything be done about it? Is there a fix?
FWIW, I'm running some recent twisted ics build.
Thanks!
Are all your MP3s in the same bitrate? different bitrates can be of different volumes.
Also, twisted has not updated anything in a long time, try one of Santod's ROMs, or the stock rooted by Santod. He is trying his best to keep like 4-5 ROMs updated.
Yes all my mp3s are the same bit rate. Especially from the same album. I might try a different rom real quickly to see if that solves it. Any other ideas?
Mine has been doing the same using the google music player on twisteds newest build. Although, this does not occur when using Pandora.

I'm glad to hear it's not just me. You are correct that it doesn't do it on Pandora or other radio streaming apps. It definitely does with stock music player and Google/Play music player that is being streamed. Have you tried any other roms?
No I haven't tried another rom since I noticed the frightening increase. I'm not sure but I don't think this was happening on his previous builds but I could be mistaken.

Same problem
Yeah i confirm, i've exactly the same issue. The volume jumps soudainly to maximum when the a new song starts. However, i use Google Play on a custom Rom based on CM 7 (Lewa Os)! :/
It seems to take place when dsp manager is included in a rom... Un-installing it and install back should work, that's all i know.
How do i reinstall dsp manager without just doing a restore from titanium backup since i can't find it in the play store? Does that count as doing a reinstall?
Did you ever solve this problem? I also have it
