Music player randomly skipping songs? - AT&T HTC One (M7)

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.

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!

Music skips via bluetooth

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.

Does it work for Bluetooth devices?

[Q] Google Music Glitches

Hey all (my first thread!)
I am having some trouble with Google Music Beta Android App. I sync-ed bunch of music to my music beta account and downloaded the Android app. (This happens if I am on WiFi, 4g, or 3g) When ever I have my phone plugged into my stereo system (the headphone jack to red white aux connection) the app will change songs if the phone is physically moved, and I don't mean just skip to the next song. It will cycle through the entire playlist/songs playing. Most of the time it will not play again till turn off all my radios or i KILL the app. Now this does NOT happen if I have in regular head phones or am playing from the on board speaker. Any audiophiles out there who know that sound from speakers that can cause disturbance in mobile data signals?
*It is not my physical connection to the stereo, If I play something from the SD card the track will play fine no mater if I am shaking the phone.
Anyone able to move their phone while plugged into an aux port?
i have the same issue. when i play music in my car, it'll go through the song fine and then hit a point where it just starts to fast forward.
i hate this.
Question: is the FF button on the right suppose to be highlighted ALL the time?
i had a feeling this was just my issue but maybe its like that.
Same issue here while using Google Music.
At first I thought it was my AUX cable, but then I played a local file and it didnt do all that crazy skipping.
It's not a glitch in music app... Download headset blocker.... The type of connection makes the phone go crazy for some reason
Headset blocker fixes it.. its n the Android market

[Q] Loss of Sound

Hi Guys, got a bit of a problem!
I've connected my SGS II to my car stereo vis 3.5mm jack. The music will play fine through the stereo, then suddenly the music disappears. It is still playing on the player but no sound is played. i've tried various media players (stock, power amp, mixzing, player pro)same thing on all of them. tried flight mode. Same thing. Its totally random, music can last 20mins or 20 seconds before it goes off. Anyone got any ideas or had a similar problem??
Thanks, Keith....

Does it happen when your phone goes of to sleep ? Try using a car dock and then testing the same if the phone is docked and music is not disrupted
Mine goes into pause mode randomly (my thread here)
When I first got my phone and started having the random pauses I found some other people for whom it just stops. I can't recall hearing of your problem, where the player appears to still be playing but without sound
Thanks guys, think i've traced the problem to a conversion box for the Bose amp in my car.....

[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

[Q] Music app static

Just yesterday i was listening to music and about every 30 seconds with my phone sitting on my desk i started experiencing periodic static. I thought it might be either the headphones or maybe the jack. I wiggled the jack and nothing while im wiggling. I went back to listening and it happend again with the phone sitting still. So i changed my headphones and once again i experienced static. So i toyed with my phone for hours and decided it is the stock Music app. I downloaded a market music player and havent experienced static for hours now. Is there a solution to this problem? Because i do enjoy the beats audio option and the lockscreen music player control. Otherwise id be okay with the aftermarket. Any solutions or market app suggestions would be much appreciated!!:victory:
