So this is a little hard to explain.
***EDIT: ITS ANY APP THAT USES INTERNET FOR AUDIO THAT COMPLETELY STOPPED BLUETOOTH***
I tried to use youtube to play a song over bluetooth and it completely locked up the app and I had to force close ON THE NEW PHONE AND OLD PHONE
AND NOW IT JUST MADE THE PHONE RESTART BY ITS SELF
Is this a rom problem?
The other day i was trying to listen to some music using a cracked version of spotify that I've used for over a year with no problem. The audio randomly stopped working, so I tried to just use the stock music player because I was going to an area where I didnt have any service anyway. The stock music player wouldn't work. I made sure it was playing by looking at the seek bar and it would sometimes start at 0:01, then jump to 0:05 and so on but no audio was coming through. The only way to make system audio work again, is to completely restart the phone. I uninstalled spotify, and the problem never came back until I reinstalled spotify with a different version, hoping it'd fix the problem. It hasnt. So, I decided to use a different phone but the same model phone, rooted, with the same rom, and it did it again. ON A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PHONE. I don't know what happened, but even on a clean flash, with no other apps installed, spotify kills my bluetooth and system audio.
What the hell is going on?
The android version is 4.4.2, and it's a stock rooted deodexed rom.

Hi. I am absolutely clueless with this.
I am used to having my phone paired with my car stereo which acts both as a headset and as a multimedia playback device. Im using this for a couple of years now and been doing that with iPhones, Galaxies and now the Atrix nad this has never happened before.
This is the problem. Ever since I updated to Gingerbread when I answer a phone call with my car stereo, and end the call, the default Music player on the android pops up and starts playing whatever is on the playlist. I can try and pause the audio and it will play again in a few seconds. I can even force close the app and it will pop open back again. It happened with the old Music, with the new Music (with Google Music support), with Grooveshark, Winamp, you name it.
Figuring it was happenning because of a faulty ROM I installed every single GB based rom out there, including the leak version, the official version, Kenneth's beta 4.5, Kenneth's Alien ROM.
I have factory reset and tried installing everything manually (not restoring through CWM or Titanium). No fix.
Any clues?
Any thoughts on this? Thank you.
I've found that the music player only works when no pre-installed or Google apps are on auto end. IDK why, but it has to do with interconnectedness.
The media player is reacting to the media pairing event as if a button was pressed.
I trap this using a Tasker profile triggered by the bluetooth connection to my car kit; the entry task grabs Media Button Events and the exit task releases them. This stops the media player launching.
Monkey see, monkey do.
If thats the problem then try headset interceptor and choose the app you want the button presses to be sent to...worth a short. Free app in the market.

I updated my phone to the new Jellybean, and everything works great except for one issue, which is a major one in my case:
I have an '11 Corolla with Bluetooth which has always worked great for me. It worked fine with my phone when it was on ICS. Everything came through the care stereo just fine. With JB, it works with some things, but not with everything like it did before. Phone calls still work fine, the stock music player works fine, and PowerAmp works fine. Problem is, that's the only things that still run through my car audio now. I listen to a lot of audio books on my commute to and from work. The app I have always used for this is Mort Player. Now, all I get when the bluetooth is on is silence. I have found this to be true with every other app I have tried as well. The music player in Motocast doesn't work. Google navigation doesn't work. I've also tried numerous other apps as well like Smart Audio Books, Akimbo, CoPilot, none of them work through the Bluetooth any more.
When I upgraded to JB, the only modifications I had made to the phone was rooting it, and I converted my Power Toggles app to a system app using Titanium so that I can use it as a one-touch switch for my GPS. However, before upgrading, I converted Power Toggles back to a standard app. So other than root, it was completely stock. I haven't found much useful information for this issue, probably because JB isn't widely installed on most RAZR's, but it is a little irritating. I've tried everything, including doing a complete factory reset, but it's always the same.
If I play another app while the stock music player or PowerAmp is playing, then the sound will come through mixed, but not on it's own. Another thing I noticed is that before, my stereo would just display a blank screen when something was playing, or "Pause" if nothing is playing, but now, it displays the name of the song that the stock player or PowerAmp is playing. If you pause it it on the phone, it continues to display the last song played. It only says "Pause" if you press the pause button on the car stereo.
Has anyone else had issues with their bluetooth audio with JB, or know of a fix for this issue?
EDIT: As an added note, I deleted the pairing from my car stereo before doing the factory reset, then re-paired the phone after the reset. Still the same result.
Same sort of issues
Well I could have tried to delve a little deep into this issue, as when ever i tried to pair my phone and send files to my fiance phone it would just not do anything and the issue of showing the same song that was last played shows up in on my sony ericsson blue tooth M600 as well.
But for now i am just complete stuck at the issue that i accidently pressed gsm band selection to USA or the gsm patch. which has caused my phone to just ignore the network completely now network is working.
I would suggest you should try to root and install safe strap 3.11 and then install a leaked jelly bean custom mod it might help but just check the details first and if you are not sure with any of the process let me know before trying. I had my share of issues so I can help you answer those before you try and make a mistake.
For now I am downloading unbrick and will see if i can get this phone to ICS and work again from there.
thanks
From my understanding, once you have upgraded to JB with the leaked OTA, you can't go back to ICS. I'm assuming that is because there has been an update to the bootloader. As a result, I'm hesitant to install any type of bootstrap because I'm not sure if the currently available ones (like Safe Strap) will be an issue and possibly brick my phone.
I have a completely stock AT&T Galaxy Note and it's doing a strange thing where it has no audio. I can't get sound at all from most of it, headphones, speakers, nothing. On bluetooth it works, though. If I try to play any audio files, youtube videos, or anything with audio it won't play it. Google Music errors out, saying I can't play the file, Youtube locks up, and anything else requiring audio just hangs as well. When I'm on bluetooth it works but is still unstable. It's like the sound driver is all messed up. I don't know if it's hardware, since when I attempt to play, it isn't just playing silently, it won't even attempt to play. It happened on 4.0.4, and I just updated it ot 4.1.2, and it persists.
Strange right? I've heard mention that a kernel can fix it, but I'm not sure where to begin.

If you are stock, and have made no modifications, try a hard reset and reinstall your programs one by one and check the audio after each program install. Maybe a program you installed is causing your issues.
Good luck.

Every after a hard reset the problem persists. I flashed CM10.1 and it happens there too.
Hi,
Can someone please help me out here? Whenever I listen to music, my sound will shut down when i turn off my screen or try to access apps and it will go back to normal once I turn my screen back on or go back to my home screen.
This whole time I've been running JellyBeans Rom build 21 with no problems, but decided to switch to PACMAN Rom because I was sick of 4.1. I installed Viper4Android and followed every directions correctly, but the problems came up after this. It's so bad to the point where if I want to listen to music, I have to trick my phone by unplugging my headphones, play music through my phone speakers initially, then plug the my headphones back in to make it work somewhat normally. This solves the music pausing problem when I turn off my screen, but to do this every single time is ghetto and whack. I still can't access my apps without my music pausing when resorting to this method.
So today, I said, "Screw it" and went through the trouble of restoring my phone back to the factory settings and rooting again so if the problem was Viper4Android or some system issue within the phone, it would go back to normal. Sadly, no luck and the issue still exists. I even thought that I messed up on something when changing the coding in build prop manager, but I reverted back to factory settings so there shouldn't be an issue.
I've heard people had issues where their music would skip on them when they turn off their screen, but I think my problem is different.
So my question to you is: Anyone experiencing similar problems or do you think that this a hardware issue? If this is a hardware issue, I have no problems taking apart my phone and replace the earphone jack.
Well, I think I figured out the problem. My phone is rejecting Google launcher when it comes to music for some weird reason. I switched to NOVA launcher and my music works perfectly now. *sigh* I guess losing the "OK Google" command is a small price to pay for music... So my next question is, how do I make my music work with the Google launcher? It seems like I'm only experiencing this problem haha

I believe it has something to do with the voice activation. I am using Nova Launcher but am able to reproduce the bug using the Voice Search within Dolphin browser. When I have headphones plugged in and playing music, as soon as I use the voice search option, the music mutes and doesn't come back til I unplug my headphones.
EDIT: Just to try it, I used my gf's Razr M phone. Had headphones plugged in, played music. Did Google Voice Search, the music stopped also BUT after finding whatever I Voice Searched, the music resumed on its own. Maybe there is a code missing to resume the audio?
So i recently updated to lollipop and its been pretty much a nightmare since. I've managed to solve most of my problems but two still remain.
1. I can play more than one song, once i try and skip to the next one it doesn't play and eventually the whole rom crashes. This has happened on several roms.
2. If my heaphones come unplugged while playing music i have to completely unplug them before i can get music to restart. There seems to be a detection issue of some sort.
im thinking there maybe a problem with cyanogen recovery but was hoping someone could chime in.
Much thanks.
doesnt look like anyone can help but I've figured out that i can play music i just cannot pause or skip to the next song, this includes streaming and using another app such as mx player. If i pause and say try and watch a movie it still requires me to reboot,.
check headphone jack, plug, sd card, clear media cache/app data
