Hey guys, i've been having some problems with the stock music player that came with Kyrillo's v6.0 ROM. It crashes at random times when playing music or surfing through it's interface without any "Force Close" prompts of any kind. Just crashes.
(This problem is only with the stock player, rest of the apps work perfectly)
Tried all possible kernels with different clock speeds and still no result. The problem seems to be with the stock music player that came with Kyrillo's ROM.
So is there another music player app that has the similar UI in terms of how the songs and artists are displayed? I've tried a bunch of music player's but all of them have the same folder structure UI. I want a player that displays all the songs by the particular artist and not like this:
artist\(each individual album)\(songs of that album).
try this
Did you try wipe cache from recovery, Im sure thers a fix for this. its not a big issue. you dont have to look for other music players.
Yeah well after trying "everything in the book" and also doing a factory reset and cache wipe, i encounter the same problem! please has no one else experienced the issue?
try this too
Im surprised no one gave any suggetions.. Look, Iam not a dev or expert , but i can tell you its not a big problem. which ROM are you using? Did u try everything in the book including:
1. Formatting your sd card
2. Re-flashing ROM
3. Try different Kernel
4. Change the allocation size of your fat32 partition to a smaller value like 128. sometimes high values cause problems.
Look, if it were a hardware issue then any kind of 3rd party app should not work.
1. Yes
2. Lol this was done a thousand times for obvious reasons so yes. Tried every possible ROM (stock and modded).
3. Same as no.2. Tried around 9 different kernels!
4. I'm not sure if that would help at all.
This is something to do with the hardware outputing the sound. The time i bought the mobile phone with the 2.1 eclair stock ROM, it was working perfectly with no sound abnormalities.
The first time i installed a custom ROM i noticed the problem and it was so annoying that i downgraded back to the stock 2.1 eclair. But unfortunately after that the problem still remained no matter what ROM i chose. It seems like there isn't enough power to drive the earphones at the instant when the screen is turned ON or OFF. It stabilizes after that.
It's like a few milliseconds of a cracking sound. The same sound you experience when putting your earphone plug into a speaker jack or sound jack. A static cracking sound.
Someone on the forum said it was a kernel issue and that it would be fixed. I thought most people were having the problem with the current kernel. But any later releases didn't fix the problem. SORRY FOR THE LONG POST, and if you or anybody could please help me out i would be grateful
well, i guess theres nothing much left to try then, If it's still under warranty, then i suggest flash a stock froyo or eclair firmware, go to nearest samsung service centre & hope they fix the issue. (fight for it if you have to). I fought for my battery replacement (last day of my six month waranty!!) & got it too!
k will have to do that i think cause this is very annoying. anyways thx for the replies.

It seems that the long awaited Gingerbread Update isn't bug free.
I listen often to music with my phone and i noticed that while using the phone during playback the audio stops, stutters or cracks when you rotate the phone.
I've tried all players and it affects every one....

i notice same thing.. and that flaw is simply hilarious..
and i have no idea why the whole system is just so lag as f***
The audio issues make me wanna cry.
Why cant there be a decent update for my X10?

There are actually two different problems with music playback on all stock GB based ROMs:
1. Music stutters when you are operating with phone (screen unlock, home button press, launching apps....) and wired headphones are connected.
2. Music skips for a second when played through bluetooth headset when phone idles. This happens mostly when the screen is off approx. once in a minute. Even when the wifi is off.
Wifi is known to interfere with A2DP Stereo headset music playback but this is not the case.
I experience both problems on stock and stock pre-rooted ROMs (fps uncap applied)
What ROMs are you guys using? Do you have fps uncap applied? (let's rule out this mod is not causing the problem)

I think it has to do with the new CPU governor introduced with Gingerbread and also the Multitasking disability Gingerbread itself introduced.
I have performed more tests. Findings are:
1. two problems I have mentioned are actually the same probably with a common cause.
Using BT the audio skips. Playing the music through wired headphones and stock music player it stutters. I have not noticed the stuttering before (because of 2.) as skipping is more noticeable.
2. using different player (I tried PlayerPro) the skipping and stuttering when phone is idle and screen off is significantly reduced. Not 100% sure but it might not be there at all.
Stuttering when screen is unlocked is still there. On PlayerPro it is actually more like a very short gap, instead of stutter.
3. Both stock music player and PlayerPro force-close every time when switching between wired and bluetooth playback without stopping the app first.
i have audio lags too... this is so sad
Greetings guys ,
I have similar problem , when i switch off the screen there is a millisecond pause of the music and then back on , this can happen also sometimes when the phone screen its off at random time .
I hope there is a fix for this soon.

I already have it since Friday. Until know even the biggest cache should be builded.
Hi do you have the pre rooted or stock and also what type of sdhc card ur using?
class 4 or 2?
I'm using a class 4 card, and I get a very little lagg of less then one second when turning screen on. Not annoying, but it shouldn't be like this. But that is maybe because phone is building cache.

U can only wait until se releases a new Update.
I alredy went back to 2.1 because i don't see any benefit from the laggy 2.3 experience.

Really hope SE releases a fix for this soon. This is definitely something they should not have overlooked considering how long they took with testing this update.
I've used Mixzing for over a year now. First thing I installed when I upgraded to GB.
I'm testing it out and using different scenarios but not getting any pauses or stutters in music. I may get the odd crack.
But Mixzing has settings to increase buffer size and one other setting that reads:
Leave Equalzer On?
Leave EQ on when in background on phones with bug that cause skipping
If you Google, You'll find some evidence of audio issues in GB on other devices, not just x10.
Anyone found a temporarily solution for this?

Tried Mixzing and even enabled huge buffer size but nothing changes. Inconsistant audio playback all the way...
I would just like to meet the developer and smash my X10 in his face!!!!

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.
I updated my phone to the new Jellybean, and everything works great except for one issue, which is a major one in my case:
I have an '11 Corolla with Bluetooth which has always worked great for me. It worked fine with my phone when it was on ICS. Everything came through the care stereo just fine. With JB, it works with some things, but not with everything like it did before. Phone calls still work fine, the stock music player works fine, and PowerAmp works fine. Problem is, that's the only things that still run through my car audio now. I listen to a lot of audio books on my commute to and from work. The app I have always used for this is Mort Player. Now, all I get when the bluetooth is on is silence. I have found this to be true with every other app I have tried as well. The music player in Motocast doesn't work. Google navigation doesn't work. I've also tried numerous other apps as well like Smart Audio Books, Akimbo, CoPilot, none of them work through the Bluetooth any more.
When I upgraded to JB, the only modifications I had made to the phone was rooting it, and I converted my Power Toggles app to a system app using Titanium so that I can use it as a one-touch switch for my GPS. However, before upgrading, I converted Power Toggles back to a standard app. So other than root, it was completely stock. I haven't found much useful information for this issue, probably because JB isn't widely installed on most RAZR's, but it is a little irritating. I've tried everything, including doing a complete factory reset, but it's always the same.
If I play another app while the stock music player or PowerAmp is playing, then the sound will come through mixed, but not on it's own. Another thing I noticed is that before, my stereo would just display a blank screen when something was playing, or "Pause" if nothing is playing, but now, it displays the name of the song that the stock player or PowerAmp is playing. If you pause it it on the phone, it continues to display the last song played. It only says "Pause" if you press the pause button on the car stereo.
Has anyone else had issues with their bluetooth audio with JB, or know of a fix for this issue?
EDIT: As an added note, I deleted the pairing from my car stereo before doing the factory reset, then re-paired the phone after the reset. Still the same result.
Same sort of issues
Well I could have tried to delve a little deep into this issue, as when ever i tried to pair my phone and send files to my fiance phone it would just not do anything and the issue of showing the same song that was last played shows up in on my sony ericsson blue tooth M600 as well.
But for now i am just complete stuck at the issue that i accidently pressed gsm band selection to USA or the gsm patch. which has caused my phone to just ignore the network completely now network is working.
I would suggest you should try to root and install safe strap 3.11 and then install a leaked jelly bean custom mod it might help but just check the details first and if you are not sure with any of the process let me know before trying. I had my share of issues so I can help you answer those before you try and make a mistake.
For now I am downloading unbrick and will see if i can get this phone to ICS and work again from there.
thanks
From my understanding, once you have upgraded to JB with the leaked OTA, you can't go back to ICS. I'm assuming that is because there has been an update to the bootloader. As a result, I'm hesitant to install any type of bootstrap because I'm not sure if the currently available ones (like Safe Strap) will be an issue and possibly brick my phone.
I've been having an issue with the audio on my i9100 since I rooted and flashed the supernexus build 4 ROM from here (android 4.2.2)
I first tried contacting the developer, but have had no response so thought I'd try here.
The issue is hard to describe, but such that you would spot it instantly if you had the phone in your hand. Anyway, I'll try:
It's almost like there is a threshold in audio volume that needs to be exceeded before the phone will output any sound. In a typical music track, there are several moments below this threshold, so basically for certain moments in the track you hear silence instead of the quiet parts. This is extremely irritating, and makes some tracks bordering on unlistenable, especially at lower volumes which seems to make the problem worse. The problem occurs with all headphones I've tried, the phone speakers and also when transmitting audio over Bluetooth.
Has anyone got any ideas what the problem might be? Am I missing something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is driving me mad! Cheers.
Try a different music player from playstore

Thanks for the reply
The problem occurs on all the music players ive tried
Different rom? Have you tested a different rom to see if it follows you.

The problem didn't occur with the stock rom, it began when I flashed the supernexus rom. I'd like to avoid flashing another rom if possible, everything else on the phone is pretty much how I want it. I was hoping there might be some option in the settings that ive missed, perhaps something to do with noise cancellation?
Thanks
Try the milestone build from supernexus.
I have tried googling but it does not really give a direct answer.
I have a rooted galaxy s3 with Resurrection remix which I love, but I am experiencing some problems with audio. Initially, audio would not really play out of headphones unless I let the audio play out of speaker and then put my headphones back in again. After downloading Soundabout to help with this, it seems now that audio only plays out of my headphones when I use the Google play music widget on my homescreen and do not lock the device, if I try to enter the google play music app whilst I am listening to something, the music instantly stops coming out of my headphones but then continues if I go back to homescreen again. This is also the same it seems with Sound cloud. I have seen some suggestions, one of which is to do a factory reset but I would deeply rather not do this, is there any other method of fixing this? Audio works but it is rather temperamental and seems to only work when doing having it in a certain way. I have heard about an app called Viper4android, but I have not actually tried it yet.
A side note, but it is not priority to fix at the moment, I am also experiencing a shorter battery life then when I had my stock touchwiz rom and also my phone seems to get hotter at the bottom (like it would in an intense game) but when I am just on the homescreen using it a lot with a fair few apps open and doing a lot, is this normal on this rom? It kind of makes me fearful about using the rom too much in case I somehow damage my phone. Anyway, my main concern is the audio problem but if anyone can answer that as well that would be nice.
Apart from these problems, I am loving this rom and would really like to keep it as the performance is phenomenal compared to my stock samsung rom. Please help so that I do not have to go away from this brilliant rom because of some problems.
Simliar issues
I'm having very similar issues with CM11 on 4.4.2... Although my issue is that my headphones occasionally stop working and only work when I open Google Now... very weird. I have to reboot to get it right again. Haven't figured out how to replicate the bug yet.
