I am getting this issue with almost every JB ROM I've tried flashing, My music/mp3s apps will lag after booting up my Evo3D when trying to plan an mp3, request me to wait or quit. If I quit, the music app restarts, and the mp3 will play, but if I restart my phone, I have to do it all over again.
This also has caused my phone to turn off if I have a music track set as my alarm on a couple of ROMs.
The only ROM that I haven't had an issue with is ParanoidAndroid 2.5 (the PA_AOKP Mashup).

I remember having the same issue a month or so back (I'm using agrabren's Disarmed Toaster) but it has since been fixed.
Try using DT and see if you still have the issue.
Also are you wiping dalvik + cache when you switch ROMs?

I haven't tried DT, and always wipe dalvik & cache in 4EXT after a full wipe. I'm going to mess around with things today and see where it gets me. thanks
Great, not just MP3s...
Update: Just flashed ParanoidAndroid 2.54(b), and same issue happens AND grooveshark lagged/force quit after a restart.
I'm still having issues, and have tired everything I can think of.
I re-updated the firmware/radio (just in case)
Wiped/Formated everything in 4EXT, including the SD Card to play it safe
I've changed permissions of the song to see if that'd make a difference
I've tried MIUI, CM10, PA, AKOP
I've tried with GAPPS installed/not installed, and no other apps installed.
Still, the only JB ROM that work is PA_AKOP (ParanoidKangdroid)
One thing I've noticed is when first going in to any music player after a fresh install, it can't find the music, but if I file search, open up the track (issue still happens), and restart, the tracks are found, and the issue continues
Any other ideas?

I flashed my first ROM last night, and tried to play music using Google Music Beta, which I downloaded from the market. When I try to play the music, the app keeps on force closing. I tried reinstalling the app, tried reflashing the rom, but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated.
Did you perform a full wipe before flashing the rom? I'm running 2.1 (remix) as well using mr2.5 and the kernel that came packed with BAMF 2.1. Having no issues using google music beta. Don't have much in the way of advice, just chiming in to help you narrow down where your issue is coming from (namely that the rom itself shouldn't be the issue). Might want to verify the md5, never know when you might snag a bunk download.

Yes, I performed a full wipe before flashing the ROM, assuming that means data/factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, battery stats...did that three times. Not sure if I am supposed to do it more. Also checked the md5, downloaded and flashed it twice more after the first time, and still can't get it to work.
Hrm, afraid I don't have much else to suggest outside of verifying settings within the music app itself. As I said, was primarily just letting you know the rom itself shouldn't be the issue. Sorry I cant be of more assistance . Might try a different rom and see if the issue persists, but if you're liking the 2.1 thats far from an actual solution even if it does solve the problem.

Never mind, I thought I got it working, but after playing a song, it crashed. I might just go back to stock rom, not a really big issue.

I was having the same problem (just 20 minutes ago). The app would load, the albums and tracks would appear, and then when I went to play one of them it would force close. What I did to correct the problem was to to reflash 2.1 in recovery without wiping. I let in reboot and now its working fine.
I am running bamf 2.0 - 5 and it works for me.
Although it Sometimes makes my phones signal drop to 1x so maybe flash a new radio?

Tried this, then even flashed the new ROM RC1 and RC2, and still am unable to get it working. Any help is appreciated. I just keep on getting the same issue, Error playing requested track. And then when I go to check the app data, I see the numbers going in and out, flickering, and have to force stop and then uninstall.

ATM, I am using Lighting Rom 3.3.1, which is a Froyo ROM, but I might try one of the other Gingerbread ROM's available. But I really did love that DasBamf ROM, and the issue seems to be amongst just a few of us.
Bump.
Still having Google Music force close on Das BAMF RC3. Can anyone confirm that it works?
I can confirm I'm having the same issue with BAMF 2.1 stripped. I tried reloading the rom without wiping and fixing permissions and still getting a force close when I attempt to play anything from the cloud.

It is listed as a known issue in the RC3 thread, but they are having trouble reproducing it. I had the same problem with RC1, but after I wiped and loaded RC3, it appears to be working fine now. I only loaded it last night and tested a little this morning though, so problems could still develop. When I was having trouble with RC1, I tried the procedure of uninstalling Google Music, unmounting SD card, reinstalling Music, and then remounting SD card. It didn't work with RC1, but I did the same thing prior to testing Music on RC3. I have no idea if that made any difference either way, but it won't hurt to try.
Edit: The known issue could be referring to the HTC Music app, not the Google one, now that I look at it again.(Still reading through the entire RC3 thread)

It was indeed the HTC Music app that is the known issue. I posted in the thread, and I provided a logcat, so hopefully someone with more experience than me can understand it.
I'm having the same issue on DAS BAMF 2.1 on latest lean kernel.
I can get it working 99% of the time with wifi only. If i use 3g or 4g the app force closes. I've tried different kernels as well.
Anyone else able to confirm if this issue is wifi/3g/4g related? Im able to use the player only if I use wifi.
Maybe this can help the devs push out a patch in 2.2
I am using it right now on RC3

I'm also able to get it to work if i wirelessly tether to another thunderbolt. Only time I have an issue is if I'm using the 3g/4g radio.

I mean I can access music.google.com from the browser but that kind of defeats the purpose of the app/widget.
My friend who has the same rom isn't getting the issue.
I flashed Meiculus's current rom (R5) and Enrophy512's newest kernel. All seems to work...except the default music player..fCs. I tried Google Player and it's not seeing my music on my external sd card (which music player did). Any thoughts? Ideas? I have the US YP-G70.Thanks!
Let Meiculus know about this bug. Did you do a factory reset through CWM in his directions? Troubleshoot a bit then ask him.
I had the same problem where my music was not showing up, although i was using PlayerPro, while using R5 of Meticulus's ROM. What I did to fix it was go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All Applications>Media Storage then clear data and it started to show my music again. You may need to reboot after clearing the data, mine only showed the names of songs, albums, and bands in lowercase until I did.

Be sure to let Meticulus know of this, so he can tell others how to fix this problem.
When the factory reset is done, all app data is automatically cleared. This should not have been a problem unless the installation directions were not followed. That being said, is it confirmed that this resolves the problem?
I had this same problem too. It happened to me after flashing eryigit rom and installing poweramp. After that, the default music player just force closes when I open it. Then I flahsed Meticulus' foreigner rom and it is still not working. The fix above worked for me, I can now open the default music app, thanks!
Thanks for the replies. I went ahead and flashed back to the rooted stock rom and all is well again (and I still have root). I don't remembering doing the factory reset...There was a new rom for my TB and HP at the same time, flashing too many things at once. I will give this another shot, I'm sure that was probably the issue. I'm using the SPB Shell on this (my HP also) and looks outstanding by the way. Again, thank you all for the responses. I love the Player, great for music, reading and Netflix. Just need Hulu and it will be "perfect".
Ever since I got my Amaze, I've been having strange audio playback problems. I'll outline them below.
1) Every few tracks, Pandora will skip a song and advance to the next one with no user input. Even happens on ads.
2) Google Play Music will report "Music playback error" every 4-5 tracks and stop playing. Happens whether streaming or played locally.
3) Every 2-3 music videos, audio in MX Player will cut out for a second or so. When seeking to a particular time in a video, audio will get out of sync or become horribly garbled.
No apparent problems with phone calls, but I don't call many people. I've tried the stock ROM, SpeedROM 7.8/8.0 and the 1/4 build of CM10. The problem remains. Anyone have any ideas? At this point I'm seriously considering bringing my HD2 out of retirement, even though it's held together with duct tape and spit. It doesn't skip, and sounds even better than the Amaze.
ive had issues with the recent MX player "updates".. but overall have you tried fixing permissions and clearing cache to see if it might fix your problem.. or uninstalling the apps or clearning the data.. because it sounds like something somewhere is corrupted.. (maybe...) i'm not too sure as to i've never encountered these problems before.. but it never hurts to try.. (and when you flash rom's do you do a *(full)* wipe before you flash them)? and also do you restore these apps with data using any backup apps like titanium etc? because that might be another cause for the issue.. as to some data from some rom's don't transfer well to new ones.. which is why they give the warning that restoring data might be harmful and cause apps to malfunction

Each time I've installed a new ROM, I've wiped dalvik, cache, data and system. Not sure what else is safe to wipe - I don't think wiping boot is such a great idea. I never restore data to a clean install, mostly because all my data is in the cloud or on my SD card. At this point I'm theorizing that the hardware audio decoder in my phone is squirrelly, though I'm not 100% positive about that.
try flashing this then flashing your rom and see if it helps.. you can fix permissions after you successfully back up your rom, just remember to make sure to do a backup always before flashing a rom

No joy. Ran the super wipe script, then it took me about 4 attempts to load SpeedROM 8.0. Finally got it reloaded, and the skipping is still there. Tried fixing permissions, too. Any other suggestions? I wonder if there's any way to cook a software decoder into the ROM...
EDIT: The skipping is still present in Pandora, but MX Player does seem to be doing better. It could've just been the CM10 ROM. Also getting lots of DSP Manager crashes in SuperROM.
ive never really used dsp.. and i just noticed too that sometimes my pandora randomly skips songs.. or maybe the volume rockers are controls when the screen is off.. not sure
I really hate to make this post, but I've had such bad luck in the recent days, that I'm at wits end and need a little help figuring out whats going wrong here. As of now, I am runing LiquidSmooth 2.9... But as with all my recent flashes, there are tons of problems. Currently my issues are: external SD card doesn't show, GPS doesn't lock on (which from what I read I need to install a working GPS rom, get a lock, then reflash.. ok cool) and lastly facebook and instagram are aggravatingly slow. I can have full service, even be on Wifi... text from posts will load fast... anything else... You're better off playing the lottery than hoping a quick picture will pull up.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong here, I throw the zip file on my phone, go into TWRP, wipe cache and dalvik, install, wipe again, factory reset, reboot, and then start using my phone...
With every rom I've tried there are issues from no gps, no camera, no keyboard, bluetooth cuts out... etc...
Is there a rom that works? Or are there steps I'm missing or a fix to my said issues? Any help would be great

Try flashing devil kernel from the Original Development section for your SD card woes. AOSP doesn't support exFAT by default (I'm guessing that's what your card is flashed as and is why you can't see it). This kernel adds support for exFAT to any AOSP ROM.
Try enabling Force GPU Rendering in the Development Options and see if that doesn't fix your slowness with Facebook and Instagram. I personally don't use Instagram but have had no issues with Facebook on CM10.2.
Finally, you already have the fix for your GPS issues, just need to bite the bullet and get it done. The good news is that as long as you stay on AOSP ROM's you shouldn't have to do it again.
Let me know if that does/doesn't work and we can try some different options, good luck!
Thank you the GPU thing seems to have worked, doesn't seem to lag as much anymore. However, the devil kernel didn't seem to do much other than replace TWRP
I'll take that back =S pics aren't loading again.

Devil kernel not recovery.
It is a kernel that will work on AOSP and TouchWiz ROMs, and in combination with the recovery allow you to dual boot one of each.
You do not want this, you want just the kernel.
ok so I've tired the devil kernel, no luck. I tried a couple different roms, no luck. Finally flashed with CleanRom3.5 and my SD card is back. But now the issue I'm experiencing is when I try and play music through spotify it randomly shuts down the audio channel. The music still plays according to the app, but I can't change songs. I can pause and hit play, but no audio. I have to force close the app, and I can then again listen to a song, maybe two before it happens again. Sometimes it happens within 2 minutes, either way I have not made through 2 consecutive songs. Any ideas on that?
try beans Jellybeans build 21.. no issues works great.
I have to be honest, I have had nothing but compatibility issues with the use of TWRP. I switched to CWM and I stopped having little glitches and hang ups in the Roms. I would give it a shot, not saying it is even the cure all but it worked for me as crazy as it sounds.

My links should still be good, if not pm me and I'll point you in the right direction.
As the title suggests, Dropbox won't work for me on slimkat.
When I try to sign in I get a quick toast telling me dropbox has stopped working then *poof* app drawer. I have restored it from TiBu with and without data, wiped the data, and installed from the app store, all to no avail. I have searched around, and found the random odd person having the same issue with dropbox or Google+ but, it sounds like wiping data fixed their problems. they were also on official Ports. Dropbox still works great on my stock ROM.
xt912
Slimkat 4.4.2. build 23 I think (whichever one was released 20140320)
SlimGapps
jbx kernel 2014-03-23
I have not run into any other issues with other apps (just occasional lag) and this is the first time I have installed a custom ROM on this phone, so don't know if previous versions of SlimKat would cause this issue with me, just wondering if anyone else had run into this, and if so,how did you fix it?
*edit* Scratch that, also found that poweramp will freeze the ROM when the screen goes off requiring a hardreset. Did a little looking and, sounds like that is a fairly common problem right now with 4.4.
Thanks.
I have not seen anything like the Dropbox app crash I just re downloaded it and tried the app and like you said it crashes instantly maybe a app issue. the last one though idk I listen to music lots of times and my phone has not done that in a long time

Dropbox, as well as music are working fine for me. Slimkat+JBX
Try wiping cache & dalvik again.
For dropbox don't restore it, perform a fresh download from Play store and see if it works.
As for, poweramp, I can't be sure 'cause I don't use it. However, wiping dalvik might fix that too. Just to confirm, you're not trying to play .flac or other lossless format.? 'Cuase that is an issue with KitKat Roms.

No difference on Dropbox. I uninstalled what I had, wiped dalvik & cache, reinstalled fresh from play store and same thing (I had already tried that before).
I can still get to Dropbox through FX so it really isn't that big of deal.
With Poweramp I will have to play with it when I get off work. No, no lossless formats, MP3 only. I don't have any problem playing anything, it is just when I shut the screen off while music is playing, sometimes I will get a skipping type sound that repeats before finally quitting. Sometimes music will just stop playing. Either way though, hardware buttons will not wake the phone, absolutely no response. I have to press down vol up and down, and the power button for a reboot.
Long story short, tried a couple different things, including another dalvik and cache wipe, and it would still freeze.
So after giving up, I went ahead and did a full wipe and partition setup to install the jbx update. After everything is done, Poweramp works with the screen off. Don't know what happened or what I had done to it, but it is undone now.
