Hey all, first post and all. I've recently picked up an Optimus G on AT&T and the phone is a seriously nice piece of kit. In most respects I prefer it to my trusty GNex but I am having one issue and that is at times Google music streaming via wifi produces intermittent popping during play. This doesn't happen when playing music on the phone and it isn't an issue that occurs all the time. Have any other owners experienced this? I will unlock and root soon and a custom rom may fix this if the issue is not hardware based.

Sooo.. upgraded from the Evo to the Photon mainly due to the international capabilities of the Photon. I'm having a couple of issues but by far the most consistant and frustrating is the problems with streaming media via Ford Sync.
Previously I've used the sync with my Evo (factory OS and various rooted roms) and my wife's Charge with no issues whatsoever. Bluetooth syncs up on the Photon and works just fine. I can make and receive calls without problems, navigation integration works great. The issue is, if I use the vehicle's steering wheel controls to skip songs and the handset is in sleep (ie screen off) the tracks skip and work without problem. But when I unlock the screen, the song I originally started skipping from is 'paused'.. even though an entirely different song is streaming on the stereo. Then if I use any device controls, the song on the device starts playing again.
This is all on a non-rooted device (going to read up on rooting and roms here in a little bit) with the 'default' media player.
Just wondering if anyone else is having similar issues or knows of a fix.
Just tested in my mothers escape and works with mine

Go on a 100 mile trip and let me know.
This isn't something that happened once, quite a few times in a car I drive more frequently than 'trying out' something in their mom's car.
this happens with my wifes edge and with the head unit ive got in my alero. not sure what the deal is
So I've noticed something about my G3 that I haven't been able to solve just yet. In my car (2014 Scion FR-S), when I start up and the car connects to my phone over Bluetooth, the music player will start up. I don't have any music on my device yet so it doesn't play anything, but the app starts.
I did some reading and found that it might be Google Play Music related so I froze that app in TiBU. However, now the default "Music" app starts up in its place.
Further compounding the weirdness is that it doesn't do this in our other car, a 2013 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited. It just connects - doesn't do anything weird, start any apps, etc.
The FR-S display audio is pretty barebones. The only option I found in there that I thought might affect things was the manner of BT connection (vehicle or phone initiated) but it didn't change anything (switching that to phone, the phone would just no longer connect). Obviously I could disable the Media Player portion of the Bluetooth profile in the car and it would just connect as a phone, and I may end up doing that since I rarely listen to music on my phone (or at all) when I'm in my car.
Anyone have any ideas on how to stop this?
This might be your head unit. I have an aftermarket Sony unit that on key off causes the phone to start playing music again instead of stopping or pausing. No issues with other head units in my other vehicles.
I was hoping someone would have a solution for this .. I ahve been searching for the longest while for a fix ... anyone have any idea what we can try to fix this ?
My wife's G2 does this in our 2014 Prius. It does have some demo music it came with, some classical stuff, and it plays it ! Very annoying. We could never figure out any way to get it to not do it, so we removed her connection to the car's Bluetooth altogether. That stopped it.
My G3 acts really strange around the Prius so I generally just use one of my other phones in it. The MotoG works fine with exceptional audio quality, and the N4, N5, and N7 all work as expected.
I use poweramp and that never happens
I checked yesterday and my G3 auto started Play Music as soon as I Bluetooth linked it to my Prius just like my wife's G2 does, except different player. Bad LG ! Don't do stuff I don't tell you to do !
I suspect this has to do with the head unit rather than the phone. My G3, Moto X, RAZR HD, and RAZR M, all auto start music in my 2011 Avalon.
I came from the Galaxy S3 and I have a Kenwood car stereo that I send bluetooth to from my phone. I noticed a couple differences/issues with the setup when I switched to the G3.
1) Connection time - My GS3 would auto connect fairly fast to the car deck but it seems like the G3 will sometimes take twice as long to connect to it. Anyone else have an issue like that?
2) Song display - use spotify to play the music on my phone. With my GS3, the stereo would show the artist name and song title of the song that was currently playing. With the G3 it doesn't show any of that information. I've messed around with the stereo to see if its a setting there but it isn't. It's set to display title and artist. Is there anyway to get it to send that info from the phone?
I realize this is a bit off your original question, but still posting for the sake of continuity of the phone...
I have a Pioneer double din touchscreen unit that has worked flawlessly with my Galaxy nexus, my LG G2, and now my LG G3, on bluetooth and displaying music information from apps on my phone.
I'm having the same issue in my BMW X5. The artist and album and any other information is all "unknown".
I had this issue with both my S4 and now my G3. However, it seems to just be hit or miss. I work for a used car department, and what I've found after switching phones is: Some vehicles proprietary systems that displayed info from my S4 do not display it for my G3, but some that didn't display for my S4 do display for my G3.
As to the X5 comment. Not really sure what to tell you, because I took a 328i on a check delivery last week and my G3 synced up with it, displaying proper information and all.
I came from a gs3 running the latest cm 11 rom. I have Ford Sync in my truck and as I use bluetooth exclusively for phone calls, I cannot speak to the display. However I have noticed that the connection is sometimes just as quick as the gs3 was, but sometimes can take up to a minute. I'll post an update if I get a chance to test out the media display.
Update: I played an mp3 with Play Music through my truck's bluetooth audio and the artist/title displayed on my console. Looks like this is a vendor specific issue.
Also have found this problem. It's kind of disappointing because I rather like being able to see the information. I figured that with Bluetooth 4 these problems would be a thing of the past

Hello all,
I'm experimenting some issues with my OPX while listening to music in Bluetooth.
I have the last update and I use Play Mauic.
1) When i am at the middle of the song and I connect for example, the song starts again on the Bluetooth device whereas on my phone it still display the middle of the song. Like 2:13/3:26 for example. It isn't a big issue but maybe it's linked to the others.
2) randomly, when a song is automatically skipped to the next one, because it has ended, again my player shows that the next song is playing whereas I can't hear anything or sometimes it stutters A LOT, like I can hear one second for each 10 seconds. To fix if I just have to click on "previous" so the song start again and it works flawlessly. This issue happens very often.
Is it a known issue? Is there a fix? I've never seen this kind of issue with other devices ao I'm sure it's because of the OPX.
Thank you.
I got the same issue. It is very annoying. You can also make the title play again by moving the progress slider a little bit back or forward. It happens also with other music players.
Someone answered on my G+ post it happens with headphone jack too. I haven't tried it tho.
I got this problem with my Sennheiser MM100 as well as on my Bose Soundlink 2.
I have also a mini sound link 2.
Buy with my cans it doesn't happen (through jack)
If it's a common problem, let's hope we'll get a fix soon.
I find it crazy that even now there is no fix. It's getting really annoying and 1+ is doing nothing, as well as for the shutters in video playback (on YouTube or Facebook). I'm definitely disappointed and thinking about selling my phone. Did anyone find a fix?
I'm using BlackPlayer, no issues with blueooth playback stutter. Issue 1) is no problem for me, I want to hear the song from start.
No random skips or stutter.

I'm sorry but I don't care the way I should use my phone, I use it as I wish and as I've always done, it's not to OnePlus to dictate me how to use my phone. It's good if you don't care but I do. I don't want to change my habits. However you didn't my problem, it's not about random skips, it just that sometimes there's no more sounds which are casted, so it's a real issue, it's not about the starting over.
Listening to music through bluetooth is just a pain, and the phone is out for months, OnePlus did nothing. That's sad.
I'm on OOS 2.1.3-x and I use Double twist player with no problem over bluetooth. So maybe the problem is Play music

I've never had your 'no more sounds which are casted' issue experince through bluetooth. Are you full stock?
Bluetooth issues
OnePlus 2 is a pretty decent phone, offering good build quality and performance for a reasonable price.
Turn the Bluetooth off and then turn it on back again.
Clear the Bluetooth cache by going to its Settings.
Restart the phone once you have cleared the cache.
Try deleting the old and unused connections and then set up the connection all over again.
Someone tryed Bluetooth playback with the newest 2.2.1 update yet?
Last week Thursday I went back from cm13 to OOS since 2.2.0x "fixed Bluetooth". Well guess what. It didn't. Still the same problem that the next song in line gets mutet after a while of playing music through Bluetooth on my MM100 or Bose Soundlink 2.
Some things I realise:
-Poweramp don't have this issues on OOS since it handles music in an other way. So this might be a workaround for people.
-Play Music or Shuttle+ don't work nice with OOS (I needed to switch songs 27 times in order to make it play again in 6h of playing. That's ridiculous)
-back on CM13 based ROM(and CM13 self) I don't have this kind of problems. Play Music works as it should (guess Shuttle too).
Would be nice to hear if the 250mb big update fixed this bug so I can go back to Stock since I kind of like it.

Hi,
Listening music on my USB/Bluetooth speaker is working like a charm but listening music on my Bluetooth car is impossible (like importing contact and calling)
Hi,
Recently bought a V30 and enjoying it so far. One of the main reasons I bought the phone was for the audio capabilities it has.
I just got round to loading my music colection onto the phone. On quite a high number of songs when skipping to the next track when the DAC is enabled it seems to skip the first 0.1-0.25 seconds (estimate) of the next song. It doesn't sound like much, but it is so annoying as you miss the first few notes or half a word. As soon as you disable the DAC or play through speakers the problem goes away. The problem also goes away if you get to end of the previous song, it only seems to occur when you hit skip. Is anybody else having this issue or know a way to correct this?
UK V30 (H930), Apps used were Google play and LG music player. All MP3s are 320kbs, tried on multiple different headphones and earbuds (including supplied). I've also tried turning off and on/updating software to no avail.
Cheers, Joe
