Hi Guys.
I'm at Android 6.0 btw. 32.1.A.1.163 (6.0)
I'm using spotify and I want to ask if there's a way to stop playing music when I unplugged my earphones. I did changing events on smart connect also clearing it's cache and data but to no avail.
Also I move Final Fantasy 9 to SD Card but the obb file still remains in my Internal Memory plus I can't move Spotify music to SD card too. Any help

I'm on .200 lollipop still and all is well.I haven't updated the Spotify app in months so it could be a bug with it. Try the stock music app and test it.

So I'm trying to load my phone up with music since my connection is not great in the virgin islands... Can't stream off google music with confidence... When I connect my phone to the computer I transfer the music.. I run out of space so then I go into root explorer and move the music to the other sd card that has more space.. (From sdcard2 to sdcard)
When I play a song through winamp or music or google music it says cannot playback file not recognized... Is there a specific directory the files have to be in? Also song titles show up 2 or 3 times in the programs... Ugh just want my tunes to play.. I bartend and play the music through my phone...

Since obviously no one can answer me why some apps detect where my mp3s see and some don't...I found my own crappy workaround...
The app Music Folder Player scans your storage when ya start it... But you can't create playlists, which I need for the bar.
Found an app Cloudskipper... Scans storage and I can create playlists... Yay problem solved for now...
I've deduced that if there's a way to scan storage in the main apps (google play, music) my problem would go away...
So... How to Rescan Storage In Google Play, Music?

are you rooted? Normally media refresh is triggered by taking the external card out and putting it back in, or a reboot. Seeing as how you've moved the music from the external card to the phone's own storage, you can do it by using an app like "rescan media". There is a root version that i've used and solved my N7 player not seeing my music issue, as well as a non root version that im not sure if it works or not. Either way what you're looking for is anything that triggers the media rescan.
If all else fails try clearing google play music's cache and data in your settings > manage apps and start from scratch.

I know this is not a new issue by any means and I've tried to search for a definitive answer.
Using what I thought were certain ROMs the phone cannot find certain mp3 files on the external SD.
This has seemed to be cured by flashing a different ROM so so far so good.
I've been running revolt 4.4 and transferred a new album via PC USB to the phone yesterday. Poweramp picked up immediately as usual but Google play music and amazon mp3 didn't. So triggered media scanner manually to no avail. I tried clearing the media storage cache and data as I've often read but on any ROM this has never rebuilt for me...ever.
I ran a nandroid of xtreme v8 which has been perfect. Guess what ? New album in its folder in Music on the external SD card but the phone will not pick up. Any clues anyone . please ?
Hi,
I need an help: I put SD card with Albums, Videos and Music on my ZU.
I can see albums and videos but I can't see music on Walkman or Google Play...
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
Restarting the device usually makes it rescan for media on internal and external sd, but if it doesn't, go to apps, Media app (I don't remember the right app as I don't have the device now), delete cache and after a few minutes you'll have all the music in your apps.
If this doesn't work try again with Walkman app and Google Music app, delete cache and open app.
If none of this work, maybe reformat the sd card...

I have all music on my SD card but if some files not showing up I use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.clypher.mediascanner
The phone does however rescan by it self most of the cases, It just need a few minutes to work
The phone should rescan by itself when you transfer files using an USB, but if you transfer wirelessly it won't do that. I transfered some songs with AirDroid yesterday, and I had to reboot so it would rescan. That's the unnecessary way of doing it, or you can trigger a rescan by installing an app that does this.

I have an LG G Stylo from Cricket so its only got 8gb internal storage. I rooted it to try and figure out what was causing the system folder to grow outta control. I realized that every time I play music that I have stored on my sd card either with the stock music app or with Google music a "writeXX.pcm" file gets written in /data. The XX represents numbers that are presumably assigned to each "listening session". This doesn't seem to happen with other music apps downloaded from the play store so that's my current workaround (deleting the files seems to have no effects on the music or anything else). I do have a Google music subscription though and would like to just use one app for all my music. Does anyone here know why this happens?
Bump. Any clues?

I am in a very similar boat. I have the Stylo as well and have been running out of storage almost weekly. I reset the phone and dont really install anything, within a week its full again. I rooted my phone as well trying to find out where the space is going. I located hundreds of WRITE####. PCM files on the ROOT/DATA folder. So now i can delete them but i have no idea whats writing those audio files. I had hundreds of songs on my sd card, but this week after reset, i didnt listen to anything, not even pandora. So it's not making them while listening to music, it's something else. Any more info from your side?
MY initial thoughts could be some internal program on the stylo is "copying" songs off the SD card for some reason. To test this I have copied off all of my pcs and music from the SD card and wiped it. So there isnt anything to see. I also increased permissions to the DATA folder, my second thought is it can create these .PCM files but cannot delete them.
wild shots in the dark basically.

I ended up just using power amp for my sd card music and Google play music for whatever music I don't currently have in my collection. I have found that even playing my collection through Google's music player it still writes those files.
I'm having an issue with music playback. About once every song there is a short pause. Only happens when the mp3s are coming from the microsd card (Sandisk Ultra 128gb microsdxc class 10). Playback is smooth from internal memory. Transferring songs from microsd to internal memory transfers at 25mb/s so it doesn't seem to be a hardware issue.
I've tried:
Moving sim card to the other spot
Turning off wifi
Restoring back to stock (I'm running debloat script, no swap, rooted, adaway)
The problem still persists. The microsd came from a moto g 2015 and I did not have this issue with that phone.
Anyone have the same issue or know of a fix?
Uninstalling Facebook messenger worked for me.
Are you using Emui/stock music player? Which player do you use? Are you listening through phone speaker/headphones/Bluetooth? I have not experienced this issue with stock Music app on phone spesker so far.

I'm using Poweramp but have the same issue with Google music. I haven't tried the stock player. Issue happens through Bluetooth, headphones (wired), and phone speaker.
Messenger is not installed. Using Google now launcher.
Almost seems like it runs out of memory because it also happens when I open another app while listening to music.
It seems there are 2 folders added to the sd card, Android and LOST.DIR. Maybe the system is writing to these folders while I listen to music?
I tried a different sd card (Samsung Evo 32GB) and have the same issue. At this point I am assuming I have a defective phone.
