[Q] Music popping - Motorola Droid X2

I'm playing some podcasts from Listen and as far as I can tell it is storing the files on /sdcard which is the internal storage. That should in no way be a bottle neck. But I'm getting clicks and pops through my headphones and even through the speaker on the back.
I've read around a few places that the available RAM may be a problem but I can't find the free version of Elixer on the market to test this out.
Anyone else experience this issue from the internal memory and been able to prevent it? Do I have a bad device? (I also have stuttering HD and DVD video recording even when set to internal.)
I don't have lots of apps installed, maybe a dozen. About 8 games, Twidroyd PRO, Listen, groupon, living social, and a flashlight app. Nothing that should be killing the phone's performance (IMO). Also I am completely stock and haven't done any rooting, etc.
Edit: I installed Elixer to view some stats and while doing so my audio stopped. This used to happen on my Moto Droid and I figured it was due to memory limitations. Sure enough my available ram on my DX2 is 45.7MB. Doesn't seem like a lot free out of 400MB. Is this normal?

I assume you mean "Yes" it is normal for this phone. My Motorola Droid (original) did not suffer this problem. It had it's own set of memory related problems but I never experienced clicking/skipping audio.
That being said I assume you have one. What do you intend to do about it? I'm trying to gauge other people's response as well. I'm contemplating returning it and getting another device but I really like the large screen phones and don't need 4G.

[Q] Specific Media App Question about Atrix/Android

I have a question about music functionality on Android/the Atrix. I want to know if the stock music player or any music player on the Android Marketplace can manage two seperate media libraries.
Specifically, I would like to be able to have two different sets of music, and depending on the library or player, you would only be able to see one at a time. The reason is that I listen to a lot of JPop and anime type music, but I work at a professional sales job and I don't want my co-workers to know I listen to that kind of music. My co-workers are not nice people(typical alpha-male personalities) and would make fun of me to no end if they found out. Say, I wanted to plug my phone in and play it on the speaker system at work, I don't want anime music to show up, so if my co-workers were browsing through my phone, they wouldn't see it.
Anyways, I would be very grateful if someone could recommend a solution, of any kind, involving multiple media players or multiple libraries. Thanks for any help of advice that you have.
BTW I don't have my Atrix yet, but I thought I would ask anyways.
Honestly, since you're concerned enough about what other people think, you might as well totally compromise and leave the music you're concerned about at home.
To answer, there are a number of ways to do this: one simple way would be to load up a MicroSD card with your "secret" music, or use something like PowerAMP, which has it's own media scanner service, so I *believe* you could put your "secret" stuff in a folder that's not parsed by the regular system media scanner (and set PowerAMP to read that folder specifically).
Good luck.
I knew I would end up getting advice of that nature first lol...but anyways, thanks for the advice regarding the music. If you or anyone else comes up with any other ideas in the meantime before I get my Atrix, feel free to share them.
OK I got my Atrix and I've been trying to get this working...but the music player finds the music I am trying to hide, even in a hidden folden on the SD card. Is there any way to limit what files the Atrix default music player adds to the library? I can't find any library options anywhere.
I would appreciate any help, thanks. Make fun of me if you wish but this is really important to me.
android handles hidden files not like windows. so to make a folder hidden, you can put a period infront of the folder. Then it shouldnt show up in your media playlist. For example ".music" without the quotes. Then to listen to those music you can use a file browser like root explorer or astro (which both allows for viewing hidden folders), then you can listen to them that way.
so in summary, music app will not see it, but file browser will. that's a work around.
Strange I just tried this but it's not working. I did put the dot in front of the music folder ".Music" but it still shows up in the music player. I even tried mounting and unmounting the SD card and restarting the phone but it still shows up. I guess the Music App is just too smart.
Actually I did discover a possible solution that I will play with a bit. I realized you can mount and unmount the SD card at anytime. So possibly I could keep the SD card completely unmounted while at work. And then just re-mount it after I get off work. Seems to work fine for the few minutes I've played with it. So thanks.

just curious, why would your co-workers take your phone too look through anyways? you will have it on you all the time, they will not steal it from you and look right? haha.
you should also check out launcher pro, you can hide any app you want from the drawer. so you can just hide your music app during work or hide it all together. then when you want to listen to music, just hit the search button and type in Music and the app will appear. only you will know.

Yea I agree, even if your phone is on your desk and one of the aholes tries to snag it just set your finger print to unlock it and they can have a ball trying to figure it out. That kinda sucks they are are douches about something as simple as your music, I'd prolly give you crap about it but I'd expect it back from you good luck man!

Well we have this nice speaker system and I like to play music on it through an AUX cable, so I just leave it sitting next to the speaker system often time.
Plus I just got this phone and love it so I want to show it off. Even though I don't like my co-workers, I will let them try out my phone so they can get jealous haha.
Oh yeah and @client I do give them crap, all the time actually. And that's part of what this is about. I just dont want them to have any fuel to give me crap about. It's basically like a competition that we have going at work, really. Like one of my co-workers is like 25 and his girlfriend is 19 so we always joke about checking her ID when she comes to visit him at work and stuff.
Atrix Display and Comments
I spent several hours yesterday (Sunday) at a AT&T Retail Store with the Motorola Atrix. As you may know the phone display is a smidge under resolution to the IPhone 4- it lacked the "Punch" I thought the Display would or should have- is it because of Android 2.2? The dual core and Nvidia graphics accelerator should have given the Atrix a absolutely stunning display, it was “Just Ok” display, but nowhere near the retina display of Apple. I am resigned or guessing to think that this may be a Android software thing-
The Battery time appears good, I ran the Motorola “Flash Demo Site” about 9 times, ran Kobe Bryant’s “Nike Black Mamba” 5 min Trailer sever times was all over the web, Huge Multi Media Sites, and I didn’t ding the Battery at all, which was very surprising-
There is no question the Phone is very fast, actually at this point, I’ve never held a faster phone in my hand, we downloaded Extreme Labs Speed test, “Blink” it was done, actually initially I thought the download aborted- No such luck, Its fast-
So the Bottom line, The Display worries me. On the other Hand I'm hearing the Display on the Xoom is Gorgeous- but their running Gingerbread 3.0- I remember there was talk that Gingerbread required some very High Tech Hardware in place, Dual Core, Nividia ect- The Atrix is running Android 2.2-
Oops! I left one thing out-
The Sales rep told me the phone was “LTE Ready”, when I asked what do you mean, he smiled and said all that’s required is a Sim Card Change Out, He said Both the Inspire and the Atrix were that way. After I got home I called AT&T and spoke to a Supervisor in Technical Services, who confirmed that dialog. I am very surprised, as none of the reviews have said that. There has been great debates over 4G, and articles that say the Atrix is but isn’t 4G, and cannot work on LTE-
I have always valued your Forum opinions, and hope that you will take a moment to answer my email. Any comment you can give or overall opinion would be graciously received as always.

Not that I don't value your opinion....but what the hell does any of what you wrote relate to the issue the OP is having?

Lol Looks like he may have posted this in my thread instead of a new one.
Also an update- The SD card dismount is working good but now the folder did get hidden. For some reason overnight the phone finally registered it as hidden. I think I'll just unhide it and keep using the mount trick though, seems more reliable.

remove camera video limit

Hi how would i remove the or increase the record limit on the xperia u.
Cyanogenmod with root
What limit are you talking about?
Sent from my ST25i using xda app-developers app
How much is the limit? something like 5 minutes?
If it is, and even if it is possible to change, i advise you not to do it.
If a limit is built in, that is for your safety. The camera sensor heats when you're recording, and overheating causes the image to get bad or even ruining the camera. The limit prevents it from overheating.
I've never recorded long videos, so i have not experienced this limit on my xperia p, but this applies to any common camera. In some it might be more noticeable than others.

the thing that limit your video recording is your storage capacity. free up some memory, put stuff on your pc or thumb drive. I never experienced such things as I always left at least 1gb on the internal memory (not phone memory)
Try to free up some space like ravenedge said, so that the cause of this can be determined. And then report here. I'd like to see where this is going

I know it isnt storage becasue when it stops i can restart it and i have 1gb free always for recording
If you have free space, then it is for your sensor safety, and trust me, you do not want to remove that limit.
Maybe increasing it a little bit more wouldn't hurt much, but not removing it completely.
I can try to find such a value on phone files. That is all i can help you with.
Ask one of the developers. They might be able to help you more with this.
Or try one of the camera mods. Their limit can be set differently from the one you currently have.
I'll post something here if i find anything.

Stuttering sound issue

Hello, today, I bought a new Moto Z and updated it to the latest version(NPL25.86-30). Before updating however, I tried out some of the apps I often use and while testing a game I very often play(Love Live! School Idol Festival) I get the problem of stuttering sound. Any time I click on anything in the menu it stutters or crackles a bit, it's very annoying and hard to ignore/miss. This also occurs when playing the game, where you click very rapidly, making the stuttering/crackling sound even more apparent and unbearable.
Have anyone else heard of an issue like this and maybe knows the cause(Yes, I have searched around but haven't found anything properly similar, maybe I suck at searching)? Is it hardware related and a replacement phone might be to consider? I have yet to do any rooting or other warranty-breaking modifications.
Maybe someone else who got a Moto Z could download this specific app and see what happens for you(Be aware it might take a while to download, the app itself is 80~MB and then it will download some more, idk how much but it took like 10 mins for me).
None of my older phones(those being a Note 1 and Note 4) had issues like this(And before you ask me to just play on them, one is too old and slow and the other's internal memory have failed).
Thanks in advance, Nukezone.
Judging from the reviews of the app, I would suppose that it's a bug in the game (one of a long list) and not your device. Does your Z make this sound in any other application @Nukezone?

I have tried to replicate the issue in other apps but it doesn't occur anywhere else. So I also suspect it to be app related, but at the same time it's a bit strange that this is the only phone this app have bugged on(for me at least). I'll go to a store today that got the phone on display and try to install it there and see if the error still occurs, if it does, I'll leave it at that, I love the Moto Z otherwise so I really dont want to have to return it. @squallz506
Well none of your other phones had Android 7.0. I'd install it but it's a whopping 600mb add on file.
My Note 4 does have Android 7.1. Not stock, naturally. It's internal memory is more or less broken, it works sometimes and sometimes i get mmc_read failed. Either way, it worked enough to try and start the app in question and test the issue and it does not occur on the Note 4 with Android 7(.1).
I guess I'll just live with it. Maybe a future update of either the OS or app fixes it.
Thanks for your suggestions at least. ^-^

My device is xiaomi Mi6 with android 7.1.1. It seems like the OS is too new for the game! I have the exact same problem: the more perfects(tap on the note) per minute the more the sound laggs. Newer game (bandori) has no problem than this SIF 2013 game.
Did you find anything? Let me know please.

Music skipping/popping

Hi, has anyone had any popping, crackling, or skipping when listening to music? I get it about twice to 3 times per hour when listening to spotify or local music. There was one time in particular where i was listening to music, when opening the recents menu and opening a recent app caused a serious crackling distortion.
Should I return my phone?
Side note: have tried safe mode. Crackling still occurs. Have tried repeating the same file. Crackilng does not occur at the same time.
Second side note: on version 119. Phillipines has no updates beyond that.
Mine does it too. This phone has more bugs than a bush tucker trial!
Haha. Yeah, it does. I've also have had apps randomly open sometimes and another music player play for a few seconds when I press play on Spotify, then return to spotify. I'm planing to try and have my handset exchanged tomorrow at the store. Hopefully they will.
I do believe this phone has really great potential, if only it wasn't so buggy.
Had too sometimes.
However, I think problem is Oreo, not the phone!
I want to believe it's oreo, since everything else on my phone works great (minus the hiccups mentioned above). No wifi or reception issues. Not even sure I want to get a replacement and do a lottery again.
so glad to see its not just me. phone is terribly buggy. settings turning on and off. sometimes after being on the phone for like 5 mins, the phone locks itself. sometimes without me even touching the phone eg when im watching youtube with it propped up on my desk. has anyone who exchanged their phone actually received one that doesnt have these issues though?
whats up with the blue light remaining on in settings when you turn a setting off? UI nightmare
Hmm. This makes me think we should run a poll so we can identify the common issues everyone is having to rule out hardware issues.

A lot has to be with Oreo as these issues don't exist in other Huawei phones. Also i wonder if some of these unreleased roms that folks are using have bugs in it compared to the official roms received via OTA.

This phone is utter Garbage

1. Screen Bleed. Not terrible but annoying.
2. Unable to transfer files to phone from my PC. I tried 3 different PC's. I have developer mode and tried both usb debug mode on and off.
But files either refuse to copy - or copy so slow that it would take days to copy large files, literally.
I installed the Poco drivers and Mi assistant. It tells me I need to update my phone before connecting to PC.
But my phone IS updated.
3. The mic hardly audible on video calls.
The mic only works if I have my mouth VERY close to it, other wise people cannot hear me at all during video calls - I mean literally AT ALL. The person was sitting quietly waiting for me to talk but I had been talking for over a minute before I realised they cant hear a thing. Did a Skype test call.. same problem.
4. It took me weeks to even be able to order this phone due to the bad habit of advertising the phone but not having enough stock available.
5. No refund available, just the painful process of sending it back and having to gamble on getting a better quality phone.
I can see my self stuck in an endless cycle of returning these phones. becasue none will be up to standard.
It has a fast processor, pretty good camera, and good battery... but the rest seems utter garbage.
I'd rather a slower phone that actually worked properly.
1. my Poco is made in China and there is not screen bleed, screen is perfect.
2. no problem for me to transfer file from Poco to Win10 in vm.
3. not tested with Skype so idk, but with normal call with speakerphone enabled i did not have problems atm.
4. :::
5. :::
What you listed is nothing compared to the touch issues this model has... It's barely usable because of them. Other than that, it's very solid. I don't even mind the light bleed, I just want the touch response to be snappy and accurate (which it's not...).

Nothing?
I got this phone mainly for Skype video calls on the move. But with the awful mic its totally useless.
Plus I got the 128GB version for more storage space, but cant even transfer files to the device.
I didn't notice many touch issues though.. maybe a bit.
Thats what we get if we pay cheap... crap quality control.
My model was also made in India - which probably means it's even worse.
About the USB thing it wouldnt work for me on the USB 3.0 ports of my computer, but I know its not Poco's fault, not even my new sound card gets recognised there. If your computer is old one (mine is P9x79 Pro with 3930k) its most probably just the USB fault. It was when USB 3.0 first released and I remember it not even working properly until drivers released a year after. Not to mention that I still have problems with it sometimes.

I mean that your mic issue is probably easy to fix in future updates (I just tested a video call myself and the other person heard me very clearly) but the screen is most likely a hardware issue which is the worst. I don't have any problems with the file transfer either.

I gave a LIST of points. I advice you to read them.
Then you accuse me of spreading hate when I'm just giving my experience,
then you call me a kid. But that's OK as long as it come from your mouth I suppose.
Yes, this phone was supposed to be a 'flagship killer killer'
Now when people point out its faults you say 'what do you expect from a cheap phone'.
Well if its crap, say so and I wont buy it.
People have been raving about it mainly due to the ultra fast processor, caught in the hype and ignoring the bad build quality and quality control.
Plus Mi India wont even give refunds.
AND they wont even check my replacement before sending it. So I may get another duff model and have to go through the entire process again.
So yes,, THIS PHONE IS GARBAGE
LOL the touch screen on my unit sold in Italy is perfect. I am in many italian android and tech forums and here no one has this (fake) touch screen problem. All made in China obviously. There are too many indian kids here...

Maybe that's the issue.
Indian products are notoriously terrible quality.
Plus Mi India won't even offer refund.
After I read this thread, I just connect my phone to my PC to see if my Poco has any troubles transferring. Recognized by the computer, I then selected USB transfer rather than charging on the phone, and transferred over a 100 MB file in about 2 seconds. Fastest I've seen so far on a phone. So, for what it's worth, no issues here.
I find the screen bleed issue interesting. Reminds me of my 2012 iMac, where there was a huge blow-up online with screenbleed at the bottom that almost nobody noticed until they read the online forums..... Never noticed it on my phone until i read about it here. Ha!

From what I'm seeing here it seems most of the phones made elsewhere are pretty much fine.
Interesting that people think it get worse ,I don't see backlighting get brighter as days go by, Backlight will get dimmer ?
Hmmm i read all these issues people have and i have yet to encounter any of them. I use my F1 daily since 6. September. Only problem i have is finding a good flip case for it.

I can speak for myself, I don't know why it does it to you. I can connect my s9 on that port and it works just fine also. However I had problem with MANY devices in the past (even last week with my new sound card) getting recognised or working properly. Some devices work, some don't. Do I blame the devices? Absolutely not. This is the price you pay for adopting new technologies like USB 3.0 (when it was first released) Its not pocos fault for being incompatible with 3.0, because it works fine on my 3.1 laptop, or USB 2.0 on my desktop. Same with my sound card. Again that's my own case, I don't know why it's not working for you. My suggestion is to try different drivers and/or upgrading the firmware of the usb.
