So I installed CM 13 and I notice this system app "CM Audio Service", but when I stop it and disabled it I did not notice any issues, the audio still working, so what does this service do?
Wondering the same.
we wait maybe someone reply and trow a little glipms of light on this
I'm here 3 years later still looking for this answer
just post the question to reddit.com/r/lineageOS, they should know.
without disabling it in settings/app music is more plesant/detailed/surrounded
So I have a different phone: note4 with RR android 7. I uninstalled the app completely and literally nothing happened. If anything my audio seems like it sounds cleaner. I wish I would have checked permissions... oh well...

A lot of times when I'm listening to music and the screen is off, the music stops playing. Pressing the headset button does not resume the music, I have to turn on the screen and press the play button.
I had this problem on KE7 as well as I have it on KF2, my phone is rooted, currently I use PowerAMP, but if I can remember correctly, I've encountered the issue using Doubletwist as well. I even tried hard resetting, but the issue persists (I didn't really start from scratch but rather restored my user apps from a Titanium Backup).
Before I go through the tiresome task of uninstalling all the apps and installing them back one by one, I decided to ask for your help. Maybe somebody already managed to resolve a similar issue...
Settings> Motion> disable it... It may be because of the motion sensors... If you tilt the phone in a certain angle, the music stops playing...Just try, if it didn't work, then there is a problem...
This seemed to be happening to me when using PlayerPro. However, I had the trial and paid for versions installed, and it seemed to be the trial version doing this. Switching to the paid for version stopped the issue.
Could PowerAmp be behaving the same?

I have bought the full version, so it can't be this. The motion theory is interesting, but the phone was sitting on my desk when it happened today. Will try disabling it anyway.
Setting motion control to off did not help either. ;(

Hey man, im experiencing the same problem.
Glad to hear im not the only one. Ill be following this thread for answers. Im using PowerAmp as well.
Well, nice to hear I'm not alone.
I will try using doubletwist for a day or two, to see if it's a PowerAmp thing. But if memory serves me well, I already expirienced the same issue before buying PowerAMP.

Just came across this thread:
http://powerampapp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1274
Interestingly somebody mentions Google Listen as the culprit. I do use it a lot. Will try removing it and report back. BTW: Pocket Casts is free today on Amazon Appstore!
Freezing Google Listen defenitely helps.
I'm having the same problem, both with the stock player, and BBC iPlayer.
I'm also using Google Listen... so it'll be a shame if it's that which causes the problem.
I've just checked my Listen settings: it's set to check for new updates once a day, but I've had the players stop more than once in one day. I also had 'send anon feedback' switched on. I've turned that off.
I'd really like to hear if it's the confirmed culprit (and how to remove or freeze it) - cheers
I've also heard the problem could be when the phone is switching between 2G and 3G mode: as I'm in a basement office, I have poor signal quality, so there's a chance that's to blame...?
Well I use Google listen on my nexus one for a year now, and it never shows up in my apps list using battery, nor does it ever appear in system panel lust using no CPU. Its been just fine.
I've found the music is stopping when I get Gmail messages (though not every time)... so it's one of my Gamil widgets, the Status bar (though I have notifications turned off) or the Social Hub.
Once I've backed up all my data I'm going to do a Factory Reset
Update:
I've done a factory reset, that didn't stop it.
I've removed the Gmail widget, that didn't stop it.
I've gotten a brand new replacement phone, that didn't stop it.
I've tried a different music player (UberMusic), that didn't stop it.
Anyone got any more ideas?
sorry to bump old thread, but Im also facing this issue and couldnt find it anywhere except this thread.....
Currently on resurrection remix rom 2.3, not too sure what gives

hey everyone I'm having a weird problem with my TP. The speakers on this thing work well for a while but, at random times the sounds and music I play comes out with static. If I reset the tab it goes away or sometimes if I even plug my head phones in and out it goes back to normal but not often. I've even done a tablet reset and ran webOS and it still happens from time to time. I've contacted HP and they just keep telling me its software related so I'm stuck. I'm running the latest version of webOS now. Its not rooted or anything either but I'm considering turning on developer mode to see if it will work but I don't know. Any ideas/suggestions. Thanks guys I appreciate you looking into the matter for me.
Do you mean the sound become distorted? Like muffled? Its happening to me also when the screen turns off. But if I turn on screen, its gets good. Also it happens only if its on highest volume?

I've had both problems listed above. Booting into WebOS then back to Alpha 3 solved it temporarily. I imagine with CM9 ICS being the major focus now, we will have to live with it for now.
I have noticed that when I am on Pandora with classical it does not pop; only my 80's Techno pop makes the speakers squeal. Maybe the TP is making a comment on my music?

Install prepare and install sound app that restarts the sound drivers, gets rid of the static temporarily. It is software related since the 3.0.4 update.

Yes I meant distorted and it also happens when I use either Pandora or play videos on YouTube. Where can I find that benfikaman?
This app is called PulseAudio Restarter (covered here)
You could also do it manually with xterm :
Code:
pulseaudio --kill
I don't remember if you have to type pulseaudio --start after, but anyway the app does it so you won't need these commands.
I guess then I am going to have to unlock my tab and install preware to get that app first. Thanks guys I'll post my results soon. Oh if I run preware will that void the tablets warranty or something? I'm sure ppl have asked this before but I'm not sure how this works. Thanks guys!

Preware is featured in the official HP catalog, and I've haven't seen any warning about warranty on the webOsInternals Preware page.
If you really need to use your warranty, you'll be able to restore your TP at its original state with webOsDoctor.
You'll see, it's easy to install preware
EDIT : some more infos here, didn't found official link about it.
preware and patches won't void the warrenty. An overclocked kernal could, if applicable

I ran into the same issue this morning with a bad static sound. I ran the pulseaudio restarter app and that did not fix the issue. I also have had times when no audio at all and the pulseaudio app fixed that. A full reboot fixes the static issues but I agree that it is annoying. I haven't moved into Android yet and I'm running an up to date Touchpad.
So far so good for me. Im hoping it works. I have another question-if any of you guys are in yahoo fantasy leagues or have done it before than you may know what I am talking about. With the touchpad I can't use websites like yahoo fantasy or pizza hut. The browser keeps refreshing itself or like in yahoo's case, each time I click on a little note thats supposed to open as a small window on the site it wont do that either. Is there anything that can fix this?
I tried to run same music apps in webos and they were fine. I have sound problem only in android and only when screen is off. Should I try that pulseaudio app?
It won't help, the screen off sound issue is a CM issue, on the android side, this webOS app can't do anything about it. And I doubt that's the same problem, restarting pulseaudio by adb or console in android won't fix it.
hey guys so here's what's up....the speakers worked fine for a few days after running pulse audio but now its back to the same thing. Any other suggestions? Thanks guys!
Hello, for the past few weeks i've been using cm 7.1 on my i9100 and I'd be glad to say that the rom is perfect, if some issues didn't come up. Firstly, since the first day of use, i've realized that the sound volume (both from speaker and headset) is fairly low compared to samsung's rom (to be frank going above 50-60% in volume options doesn't make a difference). Is there any solution to this? CM 9 apart from the "known issues" got that bug too?
The second problem came up a few days ago and it's related to the android market app. Everytime you scroll through an app's details, the phone freezes and the only way to restore it, is to turn it off and on again. Currently, i'm using app brain which doesn't seem to have that problem, but i really love google's app. So, any solution to that?
Try the app in my sig to give the headset/headphone volume a boost, works really well & only distorts the volume at very high levels (>75% which you shouldn't need). There are apps on the Market which can boost the speaker volume, not sure how well these work as I haven't tried any.
So far as the Market is concerned, I use a CM based rom and have had that problem as well. The only fix I've come across/read about is to restore a much earlier version of the market (hopefully someone else reads this thread and has a fix that can help both of us ). I haven't done this myself as I've trained myself to do all my scrolling thru app details on my PC first & simply do the install/update on my phone without scrolling thru the details , but I'm sure a search on here should dig up something/the apk you need.
Ask in the right place may get an answer quicker .

Hello.
I've had my Motorola [Electrify] for about a year now, and a few months after getting it, started having problems with the camera, playing music, and not receiving notification sounds. For the camera, I it would look as though it was starting, and then go back to the home screen with a flash saying "Camera cannot initialize." (or something to that effect.) When I would try to play music, it would stop and say "Sorry, the play does not support this type of audio format." It was MP3. And I would sometimes not receive notification sounds. I have been researching and battling this issue for months when suddenly yesterday, I read that for people whose camera wouldnt work, they went into the main settings and clear data for the camera, and the gallery. It worked. Camera worked and so did playing mp3s. Well, today it started not working again. This time I only cleared data for the gallery, and again everything worked like it should. I did root the phone several months ago, using Photon Torpedo. First, I wonder if using that method, if I may have messed something up. Anyone hear of this sort of thing? But then again, I am sure I had problems with this before I rooted. Second, I wonder if anyone knows a specific correlation between malfunctions and the gallery app. Third, would freezing the gallery app with Titanium Backup cripple functionality of the phone/media, and would it work to keep these malfunctions from happening?
Sorry for being long winded, but hoping I'm on to something here.
Thank you.
I posted that a few days ago, but in a different forum, (wrong phone forum) but now today I find out that clearing data in gallery was only a temporary fix, as today it did not work. This is the second or third time I thought I found a connection, but was wrong. Does anyone else have this problem and come up with an actual fix? For the life of me, I cannot figure out what the root cause of this problem is. Thank you.
I haven't heard of it. Have you tried a factory reset?

Wifes photon doing exactly same thing. what apps you have installed. maybe we can narrow it down. I did a factory reset, flashed a different rom, then installed all her apps back on. worked correctly for 3 days then no notification sounds, camera wont open and can t veiw videos on facebook or youtube. reboot the phone and all is well for a few days then the problem comes back.
Marking this thread as solved. CyanogenMod is stable now.

I don't know how helpful I can be, but I just want to write down some things I found noteworthy about the CM12.1 ROM that you uploaded to androidfilehost:
When you open up the settings app and then tap on 'apps', the settings app immediately crashes, returning with the message "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped". Investigating further into this, when I go to 'Storage' in the settings app, and then tap on 'Apps' from there, it actually works. However, when I then go to the left to reveal 'on sd card', the settings app crashes again.
I also tried to force the phone into playing music through the earpiece. To my surprise, the earpiece actually worked. This leads me to think that the no in-call audio issue is actually related to the phone application.
You might already be aware of the things I mentioned above, but I thought I'd write them down here anyway in case you didn't.
I hope you are able to completely fix up the ROM, so everyone can enjoy using CM12.1 on the Galaxy J5.

This uploaded ROM you flashed, is incomplete and old. All bugs are fixed since then. Only those I mention here exist.
His observation of being able playing music through the earpiece is interesting...maybe not an elegant solution, try different Phone apks from other devices? I mean, it's noobish, but can't think of anything else. I wish I knew about Android development, but I don't
Oh, one more thing, does the USB OTG work on CM 12.1 currently? That involves USB flashdrives, as well as USB joypads? (they do work on stock, I've tested)
