I'm having issues when playing back music on my HTC one using the stock music player. The playback works fine for a couple of tracks but then the music just keeps skipping on to the next track. The skipping is infinite and won't stop. Even after I kill the app and try to restart the music, the skipping continues. I'm forced to reboot the device and kill all apps running on the phone to stop the skipping, however, even after the reboot when I restart the music player, after a few songs the problem continues. In my search for a fix of the issue I've noticed this to be an issue on the HTC one x. I've tried the disable auto play app as well as trying to use the phone in airplane mode but neither of those fixes have helped. This issue occurs when I'm using the stock headphones and the stock music player. This phone has been otherwise great but I do use my phone as a music player with headphones so I'm hoping someone here can help me out or if not I'm wondering if I should try and have it replaced under warranty since the phone is less than a month old. Thanks in advance for the assistance with this issue.
I'm having the same issue. Anyone? I've also experienced issues with audio studdering badly when streaming. Bandwidth isn't the issue, I know that much... It's especially bad with Pandora

i use isyncr to transfer and sync music between the HTC One and iTunes ... this happened to me once when the app didnt upload my songs correctly and messed up the playlist files. ... erase all songs and start over again .. see if that helps ... it seemed to help me ..

Are you using Google music or HTC own stock APP?
Did you guys do a titanium backup restore?

No, it's not the one where my music stops at 2 minutes .
I have tried searching for this topic, but searching for Winamp glitch, or Winamp playback issue keeps on bringing back the same threads.
My glitch is pretty odd.
When playing a group of songs from a playlist or an album from a certain artist the song will occasionally insert another track -in the middle- of the currently playing track.
For example:
If I am currently playing Track 1, somewhere in the middle of the track the song will switch to Track 4 but Winamp is still showing that I'm playing Track 1 (with the minutes counting down as usual). If I let it continue playing, towards the end of the track I the song usually switches back to Track 1. If I skip the song it will skip as normal, if I go to the beginning of the song the problem replicates itself.
This does not happen all the time, but it happens often enough to annoy the **** out of me. Anybody experience a similar issue?
I have had this happen...with the stock player AND with Miui player. Just think of it as a mashup!
If it happened more often I would be quite annoyed...
I've had this happen as well using both the stock player and winamp. There seem to be a lot of bugs that Motorola shipped this device with. This one and the front microphone/44100hz sound recording bug are two of the worst in my opinion.

Yeah, a mash up would actually be the perfect way to describe what's happening. Although most times the songs don't match so it sounds like ****
So I guess nobody has come up with a solution?
Edit: Just to add... I won't be too bothered by this glitch if I could simply skip to the next track. The problem is, I usually listen to music during my commute on motorcycle (1 hour each way) and don't have access to the phone controls. So I'm stuck having to listen to the mismatched music till it ends.
Happens to me too.

This has happened several times to me using the default music app. Does anyone know if this happens on other phones or is it our specifically?
Well I came from a nexus one and this never happened. ever! On my atrix I've also noticed skips where its like a bad cd but... its not

I had that problem too.
Just remove Winamp or your favorite Music Player from the Autoclose list in the Task Manager.
Get an app called "HeadSet Blocker" i had this issue on the default one. After using these..haven't had a song skipped yet. Its a widget so make you have turned on.

i use winamp every day and i've never came across this issue. i did previously experience a glitch with the song skipping in the beginning of the song but i no longer have that issue. running GingerBlur v1.3, latest winamp version. I also didnt experience this on the stock rom or on GladiAtrix.
Anybody getting distorted sound? I think it nay be a sample rate issue. Doesn't matter the level certain songs have clear distortion like its clipping but its not.

Try this song on your Atrix. Distorted for me.

I'm not sure if you are describing the bug I have had or not. I've had the default music player essentially just start taking over when I'm already using a different player. If you are rooted you can safely freeze the default music app and it fixes this problem.
I used to be a big fanboy of WinAmp, now due to too many failures /hickups I moved to MixZing. This player just works and I never experienced ANY problems.
Big thumbs up for that one - I'm never going back.
Try it out if you are not too hung up on ONLY WinAmp...
I've absolutely had this! Glad I'm not alone.
Its happened with the stock player, the leaked new player from a week ago, and even with doubleTwist.
Its rare and each time seems to be caused when I skip a track then decide to go backwards to the previous one.
All through the song its like it wants to skip back to the middle of the one I was on before I skipped back.
+1 for Mixzing. Just tried it now & it seems way better than stock or Winamp. Thanks, Robert_it.

I can consistently make the stock Music app crash. I just go and select a song or album from the library (usually by Artist), which will cause it to start playing music. Then I go and select another song and it will crash with the message the music player "has stopped unexpectedly" etc. etc. "Force Close". If it doesn't crash immediately, I just try playing another song. Switching songs twice does it every time.
I have almost 7.5GB of music, which I guess is a lot, but shouldn't cause crashes. I sync using Winamp on my desktop, though I think I also had the issue synching with other applications. Other apps work mostly fine. Winamp rarely crashes. MixZing and DoubleTwist have never crashed.
I thought it was the phone, so I took it back to the Sprint store. The Sprint guy remarked how hot my phone was (didn't seem out of the ordinary to me) and gave me a brand new phone. My music is on my 16GB SD card, so I tried it out 5 minutes after swapping to the new phone and it still crashes (though about all my other, unrelated phone problems have been fixed).
I've uploaded a video of this current phone crashing to YouTube, but I don't have enough posts to link to an outside URL.
Anyone else having this issue? Not like I need to use the stock player, but I'm just curious if this is only me.
I'm also having that problem. Thought it was just me, but I guess not. I have no idea how to fix it.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Not just you guys. I've been able to re-create that same crash, and have since I got the phone. It's not my music collection, as the exact same collection on the exact same SD card plays perfectly on the stock HTC Playler on my Evo 4G. It's the newer HTC Music app, it's buggy. I've posted about this in the 'current bugs' thread, and also over at Android Forums. Some other people also get the problem. Hopefully HTC will address it. I think a lot of other users don't notice this is because they use a 3rd party music player, such as google music beta, or poweramp or something like that. I like the stock player though, because of the lockscreen music widget
Thank god. Thought I was taking crazy pills.
Are you guys getting this while headphones plugged in? I had this issue intermittently, grabbed an app on the market called headset blocker widget, haven't had the issue since. I have not had the issue on speaker. ymmv

Nope, I've had this issue without headphones. Headphones will only cause the player to skip and pause, and I got Headset Blocker for that.
Haven't really use it so no idea or much info but there is a nice app in the market is call power AMP and is great player, you can download a free version or buy the full one for 5$ really good and great developer to, btw it has EQ options integrated and it works great
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
My HTC Music Player is also buggy. Although, instead of force closing it just shuts down and I have to reboot. I am on my second 3VO handset, but I had the exact same probem with my first one.
I just started using RealPlayer Beta, works well...
I've been having all sorts of issues with the stock app as well, crashing and music skipping. Glad I read this thread though. Appreciate being pointed to the fix to my songs skipping. thanks.
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.
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.
Have the new Stock MM V340 on the Honor 5x.
I'm streaming Music over bluetooth in my car. Now evrytime when i'm getting (or making) a phone call, the stock music player is completely killed. This is very inconvinient. I have podcasts of several hours, and even the position in the podcast is lost.
When going into settings, battery, I have the possibility to protect apps, except the system apps like the music player.
Has anybody a hint or a solution for this problem? Thank you in advance for any help.

My best guess is that ur device is very low on Free RAM. Try uninstall as many apps as you do not absolutely need/use frequently. Also, put only the apps you need to stay running after screen goes off as protected (i have only 6 protected apps). Hope this helps. Cheers.

I don't have this problem even when I'm using the phone the whole evening with several apps. The music player gets killed, but continues to play at the exact position that the player had stopped the day before.
So I don't think it's memory related. Must have something to do with the phone app, or with the "Bluetooth Connect" App that I'm using so that the Music player automatically starts to play music when connected to my car Bluetooth system.
Have the same problem when using Google Play Music instead of the music player. What I can't understand is why it's not possible to make the default music player as well as Google play music a "protected app". Both app are not listened.
