[Q] Xperia U - CM 11 - Stuttering audio during voice calls and music playback - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello,
i am experiencing some really annoying problems with my Xperia U on which I installed CM 11.
Model: ST25i
CM version: 11-20141012-UNOFFICIAL-kumquat
Android Version: 4.4.4
Baseband: u8500-49020908-P2H_EC01
Kernel: 3.0.101_by_Munjeni_and_XperiaSTE-g844830a
CPU: ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7I)
RAM: 377 MB
Build number: KTU84Q test-keys
I have also Sony Media Pack installed, as described in the following link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2621492
Everything works fine except for some random reboots during intense CPU usage but I think it is a safeguard system.
The really annoying problem is that sometimes the audio blocks for a fraction of second and then comes back; this happens when playing music, when the navigator voice is speaking, but most of all during phone calls!!! Making very difficult to understand what other people are saying :crying:
I have managed to provide some "bypass" of the problem doing the following:
Editing a macro with MacroDroid to disable Data, WiFi and GPS during a call; this improves the quality but is far from being a definitive solution
Setting the network preferably to 2G connection. Results? Same as above.
Doing regular scan with SD Maid. Don't know why, but it has improved overall performance, including random reboots and audio issues.
Trying to reinstall ROM without installing Sony Media Pack, but, as long as it didn't seem to solve the problem, I decided to keep it because I like it (LOL)
Any suggestions are welcome, except for upgrading to CM 12 because I really need A2DP working and I have read that is still doesn't work in that version.
Thank you very much in advance.

[Q] Playback randomly stops

Hi,
First of all – I’m sorry if this was asked here before. I’ve really tried to search the forum but couldn’t find a solution.
I have this strange problem in my device – when listening to music – it will randomly stops.
This happens on MP3 files (with PlayerPro & Winamp), with online music (TuneIn Radio) and with FM radio.
When it happens – I have to disconnect the headphones, stop and start the music and connect the headphones again. It also happens when not using headphones.
This happens when the screen is on or off, and also in Airplane mode.
My ROM is the (almost) latest CM-10.1 build. This is happening in all the previous CM ROMs as well.
On the stock ROM and Stock based ROMs – the playback is OK.
I would appreciate any help on this subject because I’m unable to listen to music this way.
My phone details are:
GT-I9300
Android Version: 4.2.2
Baseband Version: I9300XXELL4
Kernel Version: 3.0.31-CM-gcea4b18
CM Version – 10.1-20130310-NIGHTLY-i9300
Thank you very much,
Tal.

Galaxy S3 5.1.1 Rooted- Bluetooth Skipping Issue

Bluetooth Skipping Issue
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 (rooted)
Carrier: Ting
Android version: 5.1.1
Kernel version: 3.4.108-cyanogenmod-g7752cf1
Hello all,
Ever since I upgraded my phone to Android 5.1, I've had an issue with Bluetooth where playback is incredibly choppy. This happens with both my car stereo and my Bluetooth speaker. I've spent several days scouring various forums, trying to find a solution for this. The only thing that's worked for me is going to Setting | Apps | All | Bluetooth Share and clearing the application data. The problem is this only works for one session. The next time I try playing back music over BT, the stuttering is back with a vengeance.
Has anyone found a permanent solution for this? And if not, is there a way to set up an automated task that would periodically clear the application data for Bluetooth Share when Bluetooth is not in use?
I'm getting desperate so any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Bluetooth 4.0 not working with Lineage OS 14.1 on XT1643

I just installed the Lineage OS released for Moto G4 Plus Athene from here
Phone Informations
* LineageOS version: 14.1
* Gapps version: 7.1 (released on 05 Feb 2017)
What you did:
* Wipe data: Y
* Upgrade from previous official cm build: N
* Restore with titanium backup: N
You're using (if yes write which one) :
* Task killer: N
* Phone cleaner / Battery enhancer apps : N
* Non-stock kernel: N
* Modified kernel settings N
* Other mods: N
Bug info: The phone has become incapable of detecting newer bluetooth devices (I have tested it on 3 separate Blutetooth 4.0 device), although it connected perfectly with older bluetooth devices.
P.S. I tried reporting the bug there as well, but I'm a low level member so could not.
Bluetooth not reconnecting
Same here, although my issue is that it doesn't reconnect to the devices just until I delete the current device, restart and pair again. Waiting for next build to try.
Remember that some thing are not open source to be used in custom roms. Also cm has always had bt issues and Los will as well. All that testing and your missing the most important and most basic. A logcat
In my case Bluetooth do connects, but no audio on speaker. Though​ WiFi disconnects 2-3 times a day, and never reconnects on its own. Need to manually reconnect.
Lineage os 14.1 build 20170320 cancro
Same problem with an LG G3 Beat jagnm. Bluetooth pairs OK, but then the audio is scrambled.
Lineage nightly build 20170315 jagnm
Too bad there is no way to report the bug
Same problem with my Xiaomi MI4, connected on my bluetooth speaker but no sound
is the bug still there? I want to switch frome MIUI to lineage and need Bluetooth 4.1!
Yes it continues and the developper didn't start the correction. If bluetooth is needed, stay on miui
Hey, I have the same issue on OnePlusOne with LOS v2017040424. I use running band app with BT 4.0 required. But the device only can be found in BT device scanner, not in app.
Hi, i solved all problems, disabling privacy guard. Now, it works fine
mine is already off. can you explain in more detail please? and exactly which probleam you had? bluetooth not connecting or connected but no audio.
I've managed to solve the issue on my Moto G4 by doing the following:
Go to Settings and select the search option (the magnifying glass in the top right). Search for Bluetooth and you should get an option that says 'Bluetooth Scanning'. Select this and on the next screen TURN OFF Bluetooth Scanning. Reboot the device and try pairing your Bluetooth device again.
Hope this helps!
Issue was somewhat solved but now it's back
An update which came couple weeks ago kind of solved this issue. I had to restart my phone everytime i want to connect it to Bluetooth speaker. But it was better than nothing but now the latest update brought back the issue
same on s7
Hello,
Running Lineage 14.1 on my s7, have seen this since my first install on 7-5-17.
Bluetooth connection and pairing works fine, media audio works fine, I can play music and hear my gps and other items of media through the headphones. Phone audio is distorted and I can't hear the other person, they can't hear me.
I would very much like this problem solved, it's kind of important for my work, I might have to go to a non-aosp rom, which I do not like touchwiz.
For reference my headset is a Philips SHB6250, it's audio range is between 8 and 22,000 hz.
Thanks.
Dave.

{All 2011}[DEV][ROM][LineageOS 14.1] video recordings: sound too low & suddenly stops
@AdrianDC
Hello.
I am already running CM14 (almost stable and VERY fast!) on my SE Ray.
Using Adrian's fantastic ROM 'lineage-14.1-20170514-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-urushi'.
VERY GOOD work, really !!!
JUST the following 2 remaining problems I noticed (point 1 also at cm13):
1.) The microphone sensitivity for audio and video recordings is generally much too low. (not at calls!)
Which Android system file sets the mic gain? I would like to modify this setting. (or does this adaption work in another way?)
2.) Always after about 30...40 seconds of video recording the sound signal is not been recorded anymore. Just silence then. Really strange. There is no error message.
Does anybody else noticed those phenomena as well? Who could help to fix this bug?
And does anybody know AdrianDC and how I could get him to answer?...
Or is there still anybody else supporting the SEMC 2011 devices?...
Thank you very much for any help!!

Disable AF in the FM radio app

I'm reaching out to signal a problem regarding the FM radio app on Xperia XA2. The AF (Alternative Frequency) function implemented into the app is constantly searching for a stronger signal for the tuned station and pauses the reception during these attempts. Because the tuner sensitivity is pretty low and therefore the reception quality not so great, these pauses occur very often, especially on the move. Most of the times AF can't even find a better signal and the tuner reverts back to the initial frequency, but the process restarts moments later. This is interrupting the reception to the point the radio becomes almost unusable.
Could someone please modify the source code of the FM radio apk in order to disable the AF function?
My phone’s model is H4113, running on latest stock ROM (Android 9) and rooted with Magisk. If someone figures it out, please upload the updated apk or highlight the modifications that have to be operated in the code.
Thank you in advance.
So I found this video on youtube (Sony Xperia XA2 Review & Impressions - Using LineageOS 16) which shows a different FM radio app on a phone running LineageOS vs the app in the stock ROM. To anyone running this custom ROM, do you experience the same issue with FM radio? If not, please upload the apk here, maybe it'll work on the stock ROM too (at least it's worth a try).
looking for the FM radio app for lineage os
