Latest OTA and Navigation - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Just trying to see if anyone else is experiencing the same issue I am having with Navigation and media when connected through 3.5mm jack.
When ever I'm listening to music through Google Music or power amp and I'm also using navigation at the same time the woman's voice comes through very distorted when giving voice directions. On music apps that actually get paused when guidance is being read you don't get the distortion but on apps that turn down the volume and play the navigation over the top of it you get a pretty nasty sound through the headphone jack. On apps like Doggcatcher the problem doesn't happen because the media gets completely paused.
I've tried this on Viper 1.0(works great, old OTA). Synergy(distortion), Stock with goodies 1.04-06(distortion) Mean Rom(distortion).. Anyone else getting this?

It's due to the way poweramp works. I don't know if the bug still exists but if your listening to music and you enter another app the music gets disorded untill u disable beats audio

[Q] Music app glitch!

Such a silly thing I'm experiencing with the music app on the Atrix 4g. When ever I am trying to listen to music through the audio jack, I cant seem to make it through one song with out the music stopping and starting at the beginning. I dont want to have to replace this phone but musix is such a huge part of my phone experience... What a bummer for such a fast phone.
Any similar situations or fixes??
have you got it set on repeat one song?
also try a different music app such as doubletwist
Are you rooted or running any mods / roms?

No repeat set. Downloaded and using winamp but the same issue is occurring. I'm listening to a song. It sounds like it is trying to skip then half way through, it stops, goes to the begining and sits at 0:00 as if it is paused. This is only happening when I am using the audio jack!

That sounds like some kind of glitch with the headset controls and maybe your headset. Maybe try a different pair? You can try downloading Doubletwist and telling it to take control of the headset controls in the settings and see if that does anything?

[Q] Music player acting crazy

Had my 3d 2 days now and when I listen to music on the stock music player it skips songs and fast forwards on its own. It does this when screen is active or on standby and its driving me crazy. If I pick the phone up its like moving the phone makes it go haywire. But it also does it if left untouched. Is anyone else having this problem?

I had one random reboot. And skip songs.
enjoying my EVO 3D. But root would be nice.
Mine has been doing this too. But only with something in the 3.5 jack. Driving me nuts! OP, did you come to any conclusion? Like having to get a replacement or anything?

I would like to know more about this too
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
if its skipping songs then the interference from the headphone jack is making the phone think you have something like iphone headphones that can control music, download headset blocker from the market and it will stop
it wont stop the music from stopping when the headphone jack gets unplugged though
This problem only seems to happen if your phone shows a headset icon on the top. If it shows a headphone icon, you should be ok.
If it shows the headset icon, just unplug it and replug it in again.
download the block headset app from the marketplace. you're welcome!

Excellent post.

Mine loses it's mind every time I plug something into that jack. And yes, Headset Blocker works. Make sure the widget is in color, indicating the blocker is turned on. Then it'll block the incoming control signals that are causing the problem.

I have DoubleTwist installed and I turned off the Headset controls in the settings and I seem to be good for now.
Edit: Well, slightly better.

Which ROM kernel etc?
its okay i used to have this,
Go into SETTINGS for power amp, go to AUDIO FOCUS, and make sure all of them are checked i once had funny looks but no more! i think its called short audio focus
(the developer should have it enabled by default!!)
is there a way to keep it all in the headphones? I like that I can hear the beepbeep but my music doesn't stop.. anyone know a way to do this?
lite'ning rom 2.7 if it matters.. anyone else have this issue?

i read that if you put your phone on vibrate/silent nothing will play through loudspeaker and your music should not stop. but i dont think you will hear the notification! hope this helps!!

[Q] Headphone Jack for music, Bluetooth Speaker for Navigation at the same time?

Is it possible, to use my AUX cable to play music like I always do, but at the same time! Use a bluetooth mini speaker to make the Navigation Voice much easier to hear.
Any ideas?
Rooted, with customer Kernel and Rom.
Yes it is possible only thing is when the next turn comes up it will shut off the music for a few seconds while it finishes the navigation command that is given via voice

So...is this just automatic? How would the phone know to use the bluetooth speaker for just Audio Navigation voice?

Low amplitude songs cut off

Hey guys. I'm currently using Spotify to play music while I am at work and whenever any of the songs lowers in volume, the sound on my phone cuts off until the song picks back up. Does anyone know a way to fix this issue? It's making listening to some of my favorite genres a not very fun experience.
Thanks, Shawn
Nobody? :\

I'm not sure i understand your question. When the song lowers in volume? Why is it lowering? What other apps have you tried playing music in. Does it do it for only streaming music or is it music saved on your sd partition? Try some of these things out and see what you find and please report back. It may be an isolated spotify problem.
By amplitude, I mean quiet moments in a song. To be specific, whenever a silent moment or very quiet moment of a classical piece, the sound will stop and only start again when the piece picks back up. It sounds like there's a barrier that mutes all sounds under a certain level. I'll try it with the built in music player and report back with those findings.
Yeah I also have this problem when running Pandora and Google Play Music. It's very irritating.

I usally stream the "Maxwell" station on Pandora which is soft R&B/Jazz station. Don't think i've ever noticed the music fade all the way out in quiet parts of the song. Check your installed mods and see if one of them have may be the culprit. if none installed i'm at a loss. sorry.
Maybe this helps....
