Music shuts off in car... - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Strange situation playing music into AUX plug on new car -- if phone is plugged in to charge, music (PowerAmp) stops playing after a few seconds. If it is not plugged in to charge, plays fine.
Any ideas?

what ROM?
tried another player?

Seems to be something with PowerAmp. Neutron works OK. I need to check out all the settings.

My guess is you are using non Samsung car charger and the pin configuration is triggering something like dock mode and causing sound to shut down/attempt to reroute......Just an educated guess

Car dock questions

My first post. Just wondering if anyone else who has the car dock has the issue that I'm having. When I am playing music from both the stock music player or Power Amp and take the phone out of the dock, the music doesn't pause but transfers to the phone speakers.
Is there any way to mod the car dock to pause the music when disconnected from the dock?

Same thing on mine. I think it used to pause on the original ROM, but started transferring to phone speaker after 1.5.7 update, but I am not %100 sure about this.

[Q] Stop audio from playing when removing from car dock.

I love the Moto Car Dock on the Atrix but there is one thing that drives me crazy! When I cut the ignition in the car and kill power to the Atrix USB the audio stops. I guess the feature is called auto-pause. Then when I remove the Atrix from the dock the audio starts playing again through the phone speaker. The only way this won't happen is if I pause the audio of quite whatever app is playing the audio before I stop the car.
Does anyone know a workaround or a way to disable this default behavior?

[Q] Loss of Sound

Hi Guys, got a bit of a problem!
I've connected my SGS II to my car stereo vis 3.5mm jack. The music will play fine through the stereo, then suddenly the music disappears. It is still playing on the player but no sound is played. i've tried various media players (stock, power amp, mixzing, player pro)same thing on all of them. tried flight mode. Same thing. Its totally random, music can last 20mins or 20 seconds before it goes off. Anyone got any ideas or had a similar problem??
Thanks, Keith....

Does it happen when your phone goes of to sleep ? Try using a car dock and then testing the same if the phone is docked and music is not disrupted
Mine goes into pause mode randomly (my thread here)
When I first got my phone and started having the random pauses I found some other people for whom it just stops. I can't recall hearing of your problem, where the player appears to still be playing but without sound
Thanks guys, think i've traced the problem to a conversion box for the Bose amp in my car.....

[Q] Stop playing on disconnect

Hi,
Before custom ROMS were built on ICS, when I was listening to streaming music in my car (via bluetooth), the phone would automatically stop playing when the car turned off. Same thing if I'm listening to music and I pull the headphones out, whatever was playing gets paused.
Now, when I turn my car off, the music doesn't stop playing, it just starts playing through the phone's speaker.
So my question is, is it the ROM that makes a player pause on disconnect or is it the actual APP that decides to either stop or keep playing through the speaker.
I know PowerAMP has options to auto play and auto stop on disconnect, but other apps like youtube, Audiostation (for my synology NAS) and a few others don't have settings.

I think the fact that some apps have the option indicates that at very least, the app does have some control over it. I don't know if the ROM/kernel have some default setting built in for apps that don't define it.
It seems to be a feature missing in ICS. I'm hoping it shows up by the final update.
I use Tasker to accomplish the same thing. The whole task for media is when I plug headphones in, it launches a menu with media apps (music, netflix, etc) and turns the media volume up to 6. When disconnected, it mutes media volume, pauses media, and returns to the homescreen.
I'll take a look at that in the interim, all I really need is it just to pause on BT disconnect like it use to. The is already a separate volume setting for BT vs the headphone jack. Thanks for the tip.
That's interesting, I didn't know tasker had something to pause media. I'll definitely give that a try.
I believe that was an AOSP tweak..my Inc running CM7 would pause on bluetooth disconnect.

AI problems?

Does anyone noticed that the AI makes phone to act unexpected?
For example my bt earbuds, speaker gets connected/disconnected for no reason sometimes .. for example I go to smoke at work, bt speaker stays at workplace, coming back, connecting my phone to speaker, starting to work and suddenly after some time music just stops. I see I'm connected to a speaker in Bluetooth settings, but once I start music again, music is playing thru the phone speaker instead. And I have to reconnect to a speaker again.. and it continues like that till I reboot my phone..
If I plug in fabric earphones which comes with phone, sometimes automatically music is started, sometimes after couple minutes, sometimes never.
Call recording apps/and overall all apps are killed without a reason even excluded from all battery optimations/savers.
Also never knew that I have so many different songs after trying different music player, have anyone noticed that also?
In my case I have about 200 songs in my library, but with default music player, it seemed that I have like 20songs only.. always listening on shuffle mode.
