Spotify - Sony Tablet S

Music doesnt seem to be playing when using this app?

I can play music fine, the only issue I have had is that sometimes the app struggles to maintain online mode as wifi seems to stop randomly, maybe you are having issues with that too? Does it say you are in offline mode?

Music Player Keeps Pausing or Skipping Tracks

My stock music player keeps pausing after a few seconds of play, and occasionally it will skip to the next track. I am not sure how to fix this and it is very annoying. I have had this issue both rooted and stock. Looking on the web it appears that others are having this issue as well, and that turning off the flip motion does not help, as well as using other players. Has anyone found a fix for this?
EDIT: I have a feeling this is a sensitivity issue with the screen. I notice if I pause, it automatically starts playing sometimes. Perhaps the heat of my touch is being retained on the screen and the app has too sensitive of a setting to tap the play button?
I haven't used the stock music player because of the lack of features available. Try player pro from the play store. It is one of the best music apps I have found, even better then winamp in my opionion.

It will act up if you have it USB-connected to your computer and access the files on your storage card using your computer's explorer.
I'm not connected to anything. Does it while charging, not charging, bluetooth, headphones, phone speakers, stock app, other apps, ect.

android app for playing youtube with screen off ?

I have often been playing epic music from youtube through app PVSTAR+ with screen-off, but since today it doesnt work anymore.
the original google play youtube app doesnt support playback with screen off and hence it is totaly useless for someone who wants only to listen to music (screen on in that case only drain battery)
My question is. Is there any app (or way) witch would be able to play youtube music videos with the screen off?
That would be nice. I'm also looking for an app like that.
Search for OGYouTube app here on xda, you can playing when is screen off, also you can download video or MP3.
Give "Audio Pocket " a try in the Play store, I found it today and it works well.

Any way to stop stock music player from autostarting on BT connect?

I've searched and can't find anything, but I need to find a way to stop the stock music player from playing when my phone connects to my car's BT. I use Google play music and want that one to auto start, but every freaking time I start my car, the Samsung player starts that dumb preloaded song.
Honestly, I don't care if I can't get play music to autostart, I just want the Samsung one to stop. And yes, I've tried disabling the app, but it can't be, at least non-rooted. So, any help/advice would be great. Thanks.

Is Google Play Music set as the default music player? I haven't rooted my phone or anything, it's completely stock and just by setting Google Play Music to the default on Day 1 of getting this phone (April 8th) it always auto starts when I connect via Bluetooth.

I never got the option to set it as default and I didn't see anything about it in application manager. Any idea where to find it?
OK, figured it out in a round about way. I had to open a .mp3 in Samsung's file explorer and then it asked me for the default. So let's see if it works.
@Hendrycks
Thanks! It worked.
That didnt work for me. Upon linking to BT in my car, the stock Samsung player still auto starts. I have tried setting play music as default, I have set Player Pro as default. it still auto launches the stock crappy Samsung player app. Ideally I dont want it to auto launch any app. I use Pandora alot in my car and since it auto launches the samsung app, that means my car stereo does not display the track info for the playing song in Pandora on the screen.
Sooo annoyed
I have the same exact issue and it is driving me crazy. I have tried everything in the phone and settings and there is nothing. I have downloaded both Connect and Play, and Smart Connect as bluetooth connectors but the stupid factory music beats it to the punch every time. Nothing works! I am about to chuck my phone. Someone please help!
me too
Does anyone have another suggestion? This happens to me if I even "pause" my podcast player too long. Truely annoying.
I am going to try this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cp2.start.and.play.music.player&hl=en
So far, with the UI, it does look like it has the right settings/options.
Sorry to bump this but came across this while trying to sort this very same issue. I'v found an app called Package Disabler Pro in the Play Store . The best thing is that it works without root.. It isn't free but I thinks if you been looking for something thats solves this issue its worth it. It worked for me so hope it works for you. And if you try it quick enough you can get a refund if it don't work
Download Trigger, I have mine set so when it connects to bluetooth it launches Google music but you can choose anything you want or nothing at all!

I have the same problem. I installed Trigger, but it didn't work. What task did you add?
The best I came up with was denying access to storage in the application's settings. Now it just prompts me to give it permission when I connect to bluetooth. At least that horrid song doesn't play anymore.
Have you tried Tasker ? Had same problem myself on S6 Edge, but after a little fiddling with Tasker. The default "music" closes, tunein radio is launched & my volume levels are adjusted. I can revert back to "music" by pressing play/pause on hands free.

[BUG] Music players suddenly close

Hi.
I have the XT1523 (4G+16GB+DTV) and everytime I listen to music (from my sdcard) the player suddenly closes. It happens even with Spotify when I stream music. Does anyone face this problem?
The system version is 5.0.2 - LXI22.50-24.1.
My wife and I both have an issue with our moto e's and Pandora. LTE 8gb on Cricket. Both our Pandora's skip through songs like crazy. However, I haven't experienced and local music skipping using the sd card or even Deezer (like Spotify and amazon instant music). Still trying to figure out why Pandora skips too
Mine does something similar. When browsing web pages with Opera, Amazon Music will crash (even though I wasn't listening to any music.) It doesn't happen with Chrome, and I don't have any problems with other music players (Play Music, and Poweramp.) Not a huge deal, compared to other bugs I've found. Does Maps work for you?

The music player bug happens to me whatever, not depending on the browser or the media player I am using.
Maps app works fine here.
Might be the music player is being closed because of lack of RAM.

I was afraid that it was the reason, then I installed a very tiny player (Omich Player ~ 700KB). Not even this helped solving this issue.

[Q] Play Music download AW2 rooted TicWatch

Hi,
I recently rooted my TicWatch and now I found that the download of music via Play Music does not work properly. The app on the watch states that the music has been downloaded but if I try to start the playback it wants to have a WiFi connection. It looks as if it only affects playlists. Also the covers for the playlists won't be download.
The usual stuff, clearing cache and date, reinstall, reset watch didn't help.
Any further ideas? I'm pretty sure that this worked before.
Thanks!
Sebastian

I think you have to accept that!
No, I won't. I just noticed that the music is working out the phone has Bluetooth enabled. Do the downloaded music is somehow not on the watch but is streamed from the phone instead. I will note try to sideload the phone play music app. We'll see if I can download the music then.
I just realised how stupid the actual behaviour is. The watch says that it wants to have WiFi streaming enabled in Play Music, to play the offline music. The funny part is that it does not matter if there is an actual WiFi or mobile data connection present. My watch is set to flight mode and is able to play the downloaded music. So apparently the only thing you need to do is to allow streaming via mobile data connection and not only via WiFi. #Facepalm
Btw. the sideloaded Play Music app does start but is closed immediately.
