OaT's LnT - my bugs - TouchPad General

Well, in light of everything, I still will post the bugs I'm experiencing on 8/29
I have the 32GB version. I wiped/factory reset.
- Bluetooth pairing to Jawbone Jambox is hit or miss, when it does pair, trying to enter into the BT settings causes an FC everytime. This has been happening with all the builds of LnT I've ever tested (#1 reason why I didn't use it as my daily rom) As a comparison, CM9 08/19 nightly doesn't have this problem
- Dolby mobile audio doesn't seem to do anything meaningful. I don't have any .mp3s stored on my TP, I've been using EX file explorer to connect to a local NAS, and then playing the .mp3 with whatever default audio player is built into EXFE. While it's playing, I first tried to switch between speaker/headset toggle, and through the speakers, it doesn't make any difference to the audio currently being played. I don't know if this is user error or what, maybe it only works with local mp3s using android music player?
- Turning off Dolby mobile audio will not allow me to turn it back on until I reboot
- I tried the Beats Audio build, again, turning on for example Bass boost did nothing for my ears. Does the equalizer only work for local mp3? I was trying with streaming audio from tune-in radio
- Intermittent: touchscreen stops responding. The workaround is quickly turn off/on TP. Then it works again
Sorry, I'm a n00b and a bunch of these could be user errors, not understanding the feature.

OK so the audio loss bug is still in 8/29 for me. The work around is having headphones plugged in on boot, let it sleep, wake up and unplug headphones
Also, crackling audio also occurs for me, sleep and wake fixes problem but then touch screen is intermittently unresponsive. These bugs do it happen for me in cm9 nightly

Sound stuttering via A2DP/Bluetooth

Hi, I am using the tornado a2dp fix and got A2DP working with a Sony bluetooth headphone set and the sound is great but it stutters. I tried WMA and even the HTC music player and its still the same (although a little better with WMA).
Is anyone else having these issues?
I may try updating the firmware (if avalible) or removing the A2DP thing and trying this instead:
http://sheehantu.wordpress.com/2007/05/25/enabling-a2dp-on-windows-mobile-5-phones/
has anyone tried this? does it work?
Does anyone having skipping music via A2DP? ANy fixes?
Thanks. all help appreciated!
I get the occasionall drop-out of music over a2dp. Every 30 seconds or so?
Not sure how to fix it - Works perfectly from my laptop. I don't think it's a signal strenght issue either as if I hold my jasjam next to my head it still does it.

Hi Just tried that prog and so far is NOT working......
Edit: It DOES work.
Bit fiddly to work it out but hey presto............. and stereo.
Listening to 'Pulse' ATM and not dropping out. Whahayyy!
i tried ripping a CD to WMA using media player at 128kbps and it works fine via A2DP with no skipping, so i think it just struggles with high bitrate songs and VBR MP3.
Update:
I tried an MP3 at 128kpbs and it skips, but when using a 128kbps WMA file it works perfect. So if you plan on using bluetooth headphones, get wmp 11 to convert everything to 128kbps WMA and you'll have not one problem.
Ok i have been playing with this and found a solution.
Use TCMCP. This plays AAC,WMA,MP3 and also video but if you embed the album art into the music file it will display this too. You can play the music at any bitrate and it doesn't skip with a2dp and bluetooth headphones.
And when you run this you have about 20MB avalible ram free.
To sort out your music and embed album art try music monkey.
Have fun!
I have the Pulsar 590A headset. Regarding stuttering audio; One thing to keep in mind; if you have paired it with your mobile phone, and later start a different pairing operation with bluetooth on your laptop, then the old connection with your phone may still connect automatically as a "mono headset" without you being aware of it. If you then connect the headset (manually) on your laptop to listen to stereo music (A2DP) the connection appears to succeed but you might get stuttering audio because you are also connected to your phone ! These seem to be two independent services that fight for bandwidth. I found that out when I happened to press the Dial button on the headset an to my surprise my phone (located in the hallway) called up my girlfriend ! And old pairing job I had done half a year ago and forgot about...Once I removed the phone pairing altogether (=phone link disconnected) the laptop music A2DP playback worked fine again. Can be a good thing to check in case you get stuttering audio.

anyone with bluetooth media problems on 2.2+ roms

ok, this has been plaguing me and preventing me from switching permanently to 2.2 since the camera has been fixed.
the problem:
you pair your bluetooth device and connect. media works fine. then disconnect and turn off bluetooth and the bt device. turn everything back on, and media won't play through the bluetooth device.
the cause:
well, i have been using the same jabra sp700 for a few years now. worked great on all my devices (iphone 2g, iphone 3g, dream, various nokias and my x10 up to 2.1). well, apparently 2.2+ android requires a bluetooth device that supports avrcp or the avrcp handling of 2.2+ roms require avrcp to work on the bluetooth device. however, my sp700 (and i would imagine other older bt devices) either do not have this or it doesn't work as android wants it to.
the solution (tested multiple times, works sometimes, not others):
pair and connect, go into settings and disable "phone audio" for the bluetooth device.
kind of sucks since this is my car speaker phone, but i use it for media more than i use it for phone. but i have connected/disconnected several times and media is still playing through the bt and not the phone speaker.
so those who have bt media problems with 2.2+ roms, try this, it may work for you.
will this fix the problem? http://www.foogod.com/android/ ?
it is the same with MW600 headset on Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 0.54 ROM.
what happens for me:
both devices were paired in the past and remember each other. I turn on BT on the phone and power on the headset. press play in the music player - nothing plays, it hangs and come back to paused state.
when I press play for second time music comes from headphone speaker.
what helps:
stop the playback at this point. turn the headset off and on again. press play and the music should play through it. with both music headset and phone audio profiles active.
this is how I have to do it every single time. headset works normaly afterwards until you turn the BT off on the phone again. it's just a little inconvenience.
what troubles me more are the short gaps in the playback you get about every minute and when you turn the screen off.

does not work
what about the method I wrote about? I think it is the same problem.
power off/on your headset again when the music starts playing from the headphone speaker used normally for calls. every single time this happens it fixes this for me.

that was working on and off for me. sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.
i made some modifications to the bluetooth audio.conf, will test those on my way home tonight.
no problems here with my bluetooth and i'm using wolfbreaks' 2.2 rom. i'm using a sony dr-bt50 headphones.
I've been having this problem with my headset too (hbh is800) and I'll try once I get back from home. Hopefully it works. I've tried the foogod link before and it never helped. I've been experiencing the bluetooth problem with my watch too (mbw 150) it connects and later it disconnects. and the cycle keeps repeating.
I have the same problem with dante-fu. I use Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 v0.54 ROM and MW600 headset. But turn on/off headset doesn`t help me sometimes and I have to re-pair devices.
I'm too having some problems with my mw600 head set.
Sometimes it does not play through the Bluetooth headset but through the speaker of the phone (it happens rarely)
But the most annoying thing is after a call, my headset just freezes & nothing works expect for the power button. Only solution is to turn the device of & turning on it again.
Using Wolf's 2.2 CM ROM
well, this sucks, i've tried changing all the media configs and nothing.
only solution i can think of is porting the bluetooth stack from 2.1 to 2.2.
back to 2.1 since my bt speaker is the only option for music in my car since my kid decided to deposit $.42 into my cd player.
Blutooth Media streaming problem
Hello,
Has anyone had any luck resolving this issue?
It's starting to drive me crazy. Bluetooth phone calls work perfectly but media streaming works intermittently.
Is there an easy way to replace downgrade the blutooth stack?
I am running CM 6.13

[Q] CM7 Bluetooth Audio Streaming to car stereo problem

I'm currently on Neutrino's v2.5p2 ROM and my phone doesn't allow any application other than the built in music player to stream any audio to my car stereo through bluetooth. I used to hear Tune In radio on a daily basis without any problems with the stock GB roms but ever since I unlocked my phone and started playing with different roms (Ba2tF, Nightly's, Neutrino, Dorian's Red Pill) I've been unable to listen to any streaming audio app through my bluetooth connection. No power AMP, no youtube, not even video audio from the built in media player. I can sometimes hear about 2 seconds from Tune In if I start the app while hearing audio from the music player: the music player audio would stop while the audio from tune-in starts to sound through the car speakers but after about a second and a half the audio gets cut out (but the app screen shows that the audio is still playing). Anyone else has had this issue?
Anyone? anyone?
Canr say i have had this issue cuz i dont use blue tooth for anything but have you checked in the dsp manager and blue tooth settings to see if there is something preventing it? not sure if thats any help buy best of luck.
got the problem solved. I installed Turl's CM9 V9 ROM.

Bluetooth Audio Issue - goes silent after few app switches

Hi,
I've the Prime with 9.4.2.21.
Two days I got a bluetooth speaker (creative d3x) which works pretty fine with the prime. The pairing works fine and the playback as well. But after a few app switches (for example spotify, to youtube, to vimeo app or something like this) Audio stops playing via Bluetooth. If I reconnect again successfully I don't get any sound to the speaker...bluetooth speaker and internal speaker stay silent, although I've the volume turned up. If I connect then with my nexus to the speaker everything it's fine - so it must be an issue with the prime.
Is this any common issue which might get fixed with the upcoming issue? It's really annoying since even turning bluetooth off and on or re-pairing doesn't help. I always have to reboot the prime to get bluetooth audio output working again.

[Q] S4 bluetooth connectivity failed/skewed - please help

I have a Verizon s4 running 4.3 (all ota updates, nothing custom), my bluetooth connectivity seems to have suddenly gone...awry. When I connect any bluetooth headset (I have tried with multiple) the phone will register it connecting to phone and media controls. I have it set to automatically start music playback when this occurs, and while this worked before, it spontaneously changed. Instead of playing through the headset, music now plays through the earpiece speaker and the volume buttons control phone audio rather than media (note, audio will still be transmitted out through a jack, but again the buttons will not control media volume). The headsets themselves are fully functional as they still control call functions and voice search, but no longer toggle audio, let alone control playback. This effect continues even after the headset disconnects until the phone is rebooted.
The only thing I can think of having caused this is that I recently downloaded the pebble companion app (I wanted to test it out to see what its like before I decided to buy the thing or not), and the issue started after that. I uninstalled the app and rebooted/removed battery, but still the same issue. Is there any way to fix this other than a full system reboot? I'd really rather avoid that if I can help it.
I appreciate any feedback on this issue, thanks in advance!
I have exactly the same problem, I thought I was crazy or did something stupid! I thought it had to do with my root modifications until I completely wiped it out with an odin restore and redid only the root and SuperSU and it still had the issue. I used to have it stream bluetooth audio to my car and for some reason it once I started playing music and I thought it was really quiet even for my phone speaker until I noticed it coming out of the earpiece as well. I've run out of ideas as far as fixing it at this point though I'm still trying things.
