So I'd set the sound profile to vibrate while I did some late night app installs and noticed that during installation one of the applications made a click. Thinking it odd, I set the sound profile to silent (the icon even showed the note with the line through it) and went to bed.
Next thing I know, my alarm is chiming as normal, waking me up-- the icon still shows silent, the settings / sound menu still shows me in silent profile. I do not have any override set, so what gives?
I shut the phone off to get some quiet for the time being (I've got a few alarms programmed and don't want them going off right now)
The only thing I can think of is that I installed a bunch of applications last night and something either overrode or crashed the sound application-- how would I verify? Would my logs be intact for viewing if connected via USB to a PC given that I powered off the phone?
Software version: 1.13.605.7 stock
The applications installed last night:
YouTube update
Google Maps update
AAA Discounts
AAA TripTik Mobile
AAA Roadside

After months of dealing with out of memory issues I finally broke down and rooted/reflashed my Optimus V. Tried the Bobzhome build but kept having issues. Finally found MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHOhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703152 and love it!
A few strange things...
a. I could only see the limited set of default ringtones so I used one of them (Simple Beep 01) for the incoming call ringer. After uploading a whole bunch of music files I tried changing the ringer to one of the MP3 files. Once I set the ringer (Settings -> Sounds -> Incoming Calls / Phone Ringtone) to an MP3 file it shows up in the list of ringers (using the default Android System file explorer). But incoming calls stubbornly continue to use the old ringer.
b. This is probably nothing to do with the specific mod...how does one shut off the Music App without using a Force Stop? I got into the car this morning and the last song that I was listening to when I stopped the car last night automatically resumed. (I have Bluetooth Audio synced). This is a nice feature but I would like to know how to turn it off.
Hi folks,
I've just started using Stratos with stock fw 2.3.0.8 and noticed a strange thing. I start playing music via my BT headphones directly from the watch (i.e. no smartphone used) and everything works fine. Then I launch the RUN option to start which switched to the excercise screen and starts tracking the pace, HR etc. but it STOPS the music. I didn't find a way how to restart or control the music from the RUN screen. Not sure if this is a bug, or I just haven't found the right procedure to do so.
SO - how do you listen to music and have the run tracked at the same time??
Many thanks,
loni
By doing exactly what you did, but you control the music while in the activity with the headphones buttons (it needs to be A2DP compatible, so probably it has more than 1 button for play/pause, next/prev music and volume). Other than this, you can use third party apps to go back to main screen and then go the music widget, but it's not advised and it may cause problems with the activity tracking.
Same problem here. My first training went smooth, i've played music, then start RUN and go - awesome.
2 days later i did exactly same thing - music, run, go - music stopped.
I'm using Huawei AM61 with VOL UP, VOL DOWN, FUNCTION buttons. How i can resume music once activity tracking starts? How to minimize to "desktop" after activity start? BT music was the main reason i've bought this watch - so i can leave my phone at home.

If the music paused then it should come back after you use the headphone's Play button. If it doesn't, probably either the headphones disconnected or media player crashed. Music control went back to Stratos in CN dev builds, so it may come back to all devices soon (Stratos and Pace). In the meantime, you can use this floating bar to control music even when recording an activity:

You can also try this other music player that works as the builtin but offers playlist support:

This used to happen to me. Changing the songs to lower bitrate and putting fewer songs on the watch fixed it. Also sometimes i needed to let it 'rest' after putting new songs on it.
Yeah, i deleted 2 big files (meaning that one mp3 is over 1 hour long), leaving normal ~3-5 minutes mp3's, and it seems to be working fine again. Probably media player was crashing.
Hey everyone,
When I have my phone connected up to Bluetooth in my car I can stream music (from andrewhaug.com app) for about 5-10 minutes before the music stops. If I wake the device it will resume streaming. Has anyone experianced this behaviour? Is there any kind of setting that I need to look at?
Im running DevBase 5.9.
I have tried resetting the Bluetooth settings but to no avail.
I have noticed possible similar behavior. When using my s9 plus verizon with my 2012 infiniti g37 randomly the Bluetooth music will skip on Spotify(every couple of minutes the music I'll pause for a second almost like a skipping CD) Never experienced this with my s8 or s7. Its always been like this with my s9. Never changed any settings or bothered looking into it.
So, somewhat of an update.
Over the past week I have noticed that the music streaming only cuts out IF the app is not the main focus. What I mean by that is; the app has to be running in full screen, like any normal app, BUT, if you exit out of it to the Home screen or go into another app and then lock the phone, that is when the music stops after a certain amount of time. Even though the app has a background service running, for some reason, its not the main app in focus, it gets put to sleep/kills the resources for it.
A bit of a weird quirk. Not sure if its an Android thing or an app thing.
Put the app out of battery optimisation & allow its background activity

I have battery optimization turned off for all apps.
Another interesting issue is when I'm streaming music, a call comes through, and when its done, the music doesn't resume playing. If I resume it like normal, it then stops like the original problem.
I can restart the phone and then it doesn't have a problem.
Hey guys. Ever since I updated my phone on Saturday (update with patch for 1st July), any time input my phone in my pocket the audio to my Bluetooth headphones stops. As soon as I take it out of my pocket and the always on display reappears, the music starts again.
I haven't changed any settings and my headphones worked perfectly before the update. Plus, it's happening with another pair of BT headphones in have, so it's definitely the phone.
Anyone have any ideas?
Check if your music app is not set to "optimize battery" or "allow running in the background" is disabled

I wish this had worked. It didn't make a difference. I even tried resetting the cache of the phone in the bootloader. That seemed to work for a few days but it started again this morning
This started happening a few days ago and at first I thought it was just random issue, but its happening everytime.
The phone is Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro running MIUI 11 (11.0.3.0) and Android 10.
What's happening is that I am able to connect to my car's BT fine. I can make phone calls fine.
But when I play music, it will work with correct track info for only the 1st song, MAYBE the 2nd song.
For example, if I start a song and 30 seconds in I go to next song, the audio changes but meta data (track info) takes around 15-20 seconds to change. Once this starts happening, I have no more control of music from my car.
A few seconds later after that, music will stop streaming. My car and phone both show they are still connected and my phone is still playing the music.
After about 5 minutes or so, a random clip of music will play that was supposed to play like 3-4 minutes ago, could be even from a different song then what the phone is playing currently.
This really sucks because it was working fine before with the same phone! Other peoples phones work fine with the car.
Something to mention: I think it has to do with A2DP?
Also, there is an option in developer settings "Disable Bluetooth A2DP Hardware Offload". I can toggle this setting but I don't think it works. When I toggle that setting, the toggle becomes blue but then goes back to the left and phone prompts me "You must reboot to apply this setting". I press OK and it reboots, after the reboot the setting is still disabled and in Android Properties (using SetEdit app) I can see
"vendor.audio.feature.a2dp_offload.enable=true", but I cannot modify this I think. I'm not positive this has anything to do with it, but just some thoughts.
What I've tried:
Delete BT pairs, re-pair BT
upgrade car BT software
Used all AVCRP versions (reboot phone and car after each change)
Reinstall MIUI 11 update (same version I already have, just reinstall incase corrupt)
Rooted phone > edit build.prop > disable av.media.offload
I'm not a newbie user, I work as a software dev for a living but this one has me scratching my head. Any help at all is appreciated!
Did you manage to fix it? please tell us how, if you did
