Music skips via bluetooth - HTC EVO 3D

Hi, is there a resolution to my HTC EVO 3D skipping (more like it stops playing then resumes in about a second or 2) my music via my Bluetooth motorcycle helmet. I did not have this issue with my HTC Hero.

I have the same problem, or issue...i have a ChatterBox GMRS X1 Bluteooth that I use to listen to music while riding to work. Mine skips just like yours every once and a while and I have come up with the to the following conslusions
1) The OTA update that I have not applied sets off a ringtone every so often, this cuts out music for a second then returns - this is by far the most repetitive reason I can come up with
2) Incoming Text Messages play a ringtone, thus cutting out the music for about 2 seconds, then returning to normal.
3) Incoming Phone Calls - this again plays a ringtone and cuts my music out for about 10 seconds, then returns to playing normal.
4) When using Pandora vs. my music library...driving 60 miles up 95 I tend to loose signal or "hop" a lot, so my 3G will cut out for a second or it will re-buffer the song, then play again.
Those reasons above are all what I've noticed when listening to music via bluetooth. I do not use a bluetooth headset for phone calls, I've never liked them. Also, if you take away 1-3 and I listen to my music library on my SD card, I've never had my bluetooth cut out or skip. Hope this info helps.

mine skips to on my blue ant t1,just holding it or sitting next to it on the table and it skipd when im listening to my music,thought it was the mp3 missing data from downloading but its not...anyone have any other idea's or maybe know how to fix this proplem?

I also have this problem. I am using the Nokia BH-214. Every once in a while it freezes and resumes after about half a second.

I'm using a Plantronics Backbeat 903 and have the same issue. Didn't have this before on my E4G.

I really hoping that HTC fixes this issue since It's really an inconvenience when listening to music in that manner.

Same problem intermittently via arctic sound p311.
No problems with my jawbone. Any ideas?

works fine in 2011 sonata and my plantronics headset

same here...skipped a lot when I was at the golfing range. never had that problem with my hero using my jawbone icon

I've been having this same issue using the Plantronics Backbeat 903+. It almost seems like somehow the G sensor is causing the interference. If my phone is sitting on the desk, it plays without a problem, even if I am walking around. If I am carrying my phone though, it pauses, unless I keep my phone level. Could that possibly be affecting it?

Could be since I was on my motorcycle when it was pause and skip, but when I was not moving it was fine.

same skipping issue with multiple music players and jaybird jf3/freedom bluetooth stereo headset. im running steelrom 1.01 and net's kernel.

This is actually the first phone that I have been able to use connected to my car stereo VIA BT with absolutely no skipping at all.

Download Headset Blocker from the market, it's a widget so you have to turn it on if you don't want music to skip when the headphones are plugged in. Hope it helps

Notice it happens when I hold the phone upsidedown, then it would stop playing music for a second or two, then start again.

Is anyone else having the audio jack problem

When ever i have headphones hooked in or have it hooked up to my dewalt radio through audio jack the songs skip randomly to new songs. Dose anyone else have this problem? Can it be fixed?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
It is because the jack is t-r-r-s style, tip, ring, ring, sleeve, to accommodate the microphone. Standard stereo headphones are t-r-s. For some reason they don't line up exactly. You could try to find a trs female to trrs male adapter or I have seen some people open up their phones to try and fix it. I had the same problem on my Evo 4G.
Thats weird i never had that issue with my old evo and my girfriends not havin it with her 3d either

Duplicate. Sorry
had this problem on the evo 4g. you know you have the problem when you see the headset icon at the top of the screen after plugging in headphones. the fix: download headset blocker from the market. it's a widget that, when turned on, will recognize your headphones as headphones rather than headset. you'll know it's fixed because you will see a headphone icon instead of the headset icon. and notice there will be no more unwanted track skipping. worked on evo 4g and works on evo 3d.

How come this didn't happen with my og evo? Very annoying on my 3vo...

It depends on the jack you plug in. Some do it, some don't. Make sure the jack is pushed in completely; it might not be in all the way even if it plays audio perfectly.
The reason it skips is because the phone supports headphones with inline player controls (prev, next, play/pause buttons) and if the jack touches the wrong connections, the phone thinks one of the remote buttons was pressed.

Where can I get compatible headphones with these inline controls? Or better yet, does anyone make just the controls with a jack for my headphones? Any discussion of this on the forum?
Download headset blocker in the market
Bussin Caps n 3D
just started having this problem but mine trys to call the last number dialed but quickly hangs up then launches the voice dialer. sometimes it launches the media player skipping the songs. And the headset icon shows up not the headphone.
ICS update
Does anybody know how to fix this problem using ICS. Headset blocker is not compatible with ICS so I cannot install it!

playing music via Bluetooth?

Has anyone gotten this phone to work playing music through your car stereo through Bluetooth?
I'm paired fine and calls come through stereo, but music still comes through phone speaker. My gf isn't around atm or i'd ask her(she got her HD7 to do bluetooth music on my stereo).
I at least know that once it's paired, it's a phone setting.
I have mine paired with my Sony Bluetooth car stereo and it plays fine. I did have one instance where it played through the phone speaker but it corrected itself the next day.

There should be an option depending on what music player you are using to determine what output you are using. Kinda like if you had a bluetooth earbud, you wouldn't want to play music through it, just receive your calls through it.

So all you did was just pair, started music player, then it automatically went through Bluetooth?
No matter what I do, it just keeps going through phone speaker(only calls go through Bluetooth). I've tried with default music player and poweramp.
I don't have anything bluetooth to try, but there are no options at all to choose output path either in BT or Music player?

Under advanced Bluetooth options there is one labeled FTP Server which I believe you need to have on in order to stream music. Hmm... Tried turning Bluetooth on and off on both the phone and stereo, even rebooted phone. Blah!

When you pair a headset that is stereo capable, it will pair to 2 things, phone audio and media. Have you tried to unpair and pair and see if that fixes it?
I have paired my Rezound with a set of bluetooth stereo headphones and also with my car stereo. I have noticed that the media audio connection is intermittent. It always *says* that it is connected to media audio, but sometimes the sound comes out of my phone speaker anyhow. I have not figured out how to fix this. It seems to happen randomly (more frequently with my car stereo than with the headphones, but it has happened with both). All I can recommend is to go into a Disconnect/Unpair/Pair/Connect loop until you get it to work. It might also help to power cycle your phone. I just did that last night and it paired and connected properly with my car stereo this morning.
This all of course assumes you have checked "Media" under the options screen for the device with which you are pairing.

If it behaves like any other Android phone, when it links up to a bluetooth connection with the audio profile enabled, it should automatically route it's sound to bluetooth, there's no setting in the music player to toggle that.

My car has the option for bluetooth media and when I sync'd the phone to the car last night for the first time it worked flawlessly I didn't have to to anything special. I don't think it's a problem with the phone, maybe the car stereo?
I suspect the phone since I've seen the same intermittent problem both with my car stereo and my headphones. Plus I never had any problem with my original Droid with both those devices.

Update: did a plain old pair with the HTC HD7 again and the music came through the stereo just fine. Tried again with the Rezound and still keeps going through the phone speakers. Oh well... My fault for trusting HTC.. ;P

[Q] Problem with Bluetooth phone

Hello all,
I am having a problem getting the phone part of my new DNA to work with blue-tooth in my car. The A2DP works great but after I answer or make a phone call with my Car Stereo (eclipse 3200) I cant hear anything and they cant hear me. If I use the dial-pad on the phone to make a call I hear the tones from the button pushes but nothing after the call is connected.
Thanks for any help or suggestions

I have a Sony bluetooth player in my car and it will not even recognize the device.
Edit: It was a user error on my part. I have successfully paired and it works flawless.

My car recognizes and pairs with the DNA, but it will only play the first 1-2 seconds of music, then the radio stops receiving any audio. Sometimes it works properly and will play songs completely, but the majority of the time, it will cut out. I can pause and unpause it, and I'll get 1-2 seconds of music, then it stops again.
Also, any high pitched sounds (ie. cymbals, percussion, etc.) are very distorted. I had this same issue on the Thunderbolt The Galaxy Nexus I had for the past year had no issues and sounded perfect over bluetooth.
I am disappoint.

I think the phone just has bluetooth problems in general, or BT4 is just not 100% backwards compatible. I have a Pioneer stereo, and never had any problems with any of my android devices (OG Droid, Droid X, inc2 and gNex) connecting, but when I connect my DNA, it actually crashes the phone process on the handset and it restarts (the process, not the handset). It still appears to be connected to the stereo after that, but I haven't tried making a call yet.
Stereo doesn't support BT streaming, so I can't test that. Has an SD slot, and that's all I ever use.
I'm having the same problem. My music will play for about 3 seconds, then goes silent. The car says I'm still connected, Google Music is still playing, but it mutes out. Was having fun while driving hitting the pause/play button to listen to a song 3 seconds at a time. Does anyone know if this is a OS problem, hardware problem or incompatibility, or other problem? I didn't see many posts about this elsewhere and haven't heard back from Verizon.

Working fine for me with my Kenwood. Music does skip occasionally, but my other phones (galaxy nexus, thunderbolt) have done that too.

For all of us who suffer a HTC Toyota combo and the dreaded bluetooth pause issue I believe I have found the issue and got a working solution !
From what I gather, the HTC music player sets the bluetooth player state to pause when leaving the music player and most other apps do not set it back to streaming. I found one which does, so a simple solution !
1. Start and stop a piece of music with the Fplay music player and it will reset the bluetooth player state to streaming. I put a widget on the home screen.
2. Start your other apps and enjoy streaming sound again.
3. Enjoy

Music player randomly skipping songs?

Hi guys,
I use the HTC headphones and use the Music player and it always randomly changes songs. Sometimes it will go several songs in a row without changing, but then out of the blue it will keep changing songs after a few seconds.
Is this happening for anyone else? I've checked that no buttons are being pressed. The screen is off and nothing is pressing anything. The only thing I can think of is that it is windy. Is there some hidden voice commands being triggered to cause the music player to change songs? Thanks.
P.S. I am on CleanROM 2.5
I just switched to trickdroid and it does the same thing with the HTC music player on that Rom too. When I just use the music player at the gym or at my desk it has no issue. Why does it unexpectedly change songs when I am riding my motorcycle? Hmmm.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I am on TrickDroid 7.5.0 and was having the same issue, however I also had this issue with another HTC phone (Inspire) and was able to fix it by using only earbuds / earphones that have a 4 conductor 3.5mm headphone jack. If you are using a standard 3 conductor jack, you are going to continue having this problem (however it usually only occurs with vibration to the phone with the latter plugs).
I fixed the issue of songs & skipping mp3's on the HTC One today by switching to 4 conductor earbuds (with a microphone). I also repeatedly pulled the headphones in and out of the jack rapidly about 20 times. Now I can run, jog, bump and shake the phone forever without a skip.
Hope this helps, it is annoying for sure!
hi

Bluetooth issues?

Anyone else having weird issues with their Bluetooth? More specifically, when you play music, the metadata adds some weird 01 or 000 digits in front of the track titles? Confirmed with PowerAmp as well as Spotify. Also having static and hiccup issues with it as well. Thought it was my head unit in my car, but it is in fact the phone since it does the same thing with other cars I've tested this in.
I've been having some issues using it with my car too.
I have a aftermarket radio, but this is the only phone that does this.
When a call comes in the music is suppose to stop. It doesn't i'm getting sounds from calls and music at the same time. I would have to manually pause the music on my phone.
Another thing is, when i turn off the car. Normally the phone will automatically pause or shut down the music app when connect is lost. Not with this phone. it just keeps playing the music after loosing connection with the host.
Hoping there is a update to fix this bug. It's not a big thing but it's starting to get annoying...
Mine works fine except the app will randomly close sometimes. Pandora never shuts off. Only gmusic and spotify does. I actually love how much faster this phone connects compared to my note 4.

I haven't notice any issues yet and I use bluetooth 3-4 hrs a day. I use iheart, Poweramp, PlayerPro.
I'll start looking for problems now
