My guess is that you need to check how the auido was encoded in the files you are playing. Others here are probably more expert than I am, but the stock video player doesn't seem to like any kind of multi-channel audio, just straight stereo. Rock Player seems to read multichannel but I haven't had much luck with it either. So I have re-ripped my files with only stereo and that has worked.

Voodoo sound fuzzy and staticy

Anyone elses audio come out fuzzy when using voodoo driver? Doesn't matter which db setting I use. I'm going 3.5mm to 3.5mm on my car radio and it happens no matter what listening to Pandora, Spotify, etc. Any ideas? Thanks!

Same here, if I turn up the volume.

I only have that with Pandora but I'm not sure if its the phone or app because it is the ad free one posted in our themes and apps for the g2x.

Edit: after I said that I noticed it while watching YouTube videos and when cask forwarding a song in default music player
So I wonder if it's just the G2x, if it does it without voodoo, etc. What is the root hmmm
Are you also charging your phone at the same time? Car chargers tend to make the phone's audio jack all buzzy.

Apple airplay/bluetooth

Hey so I've been messing with two apps, hifi speaker and remote for itunes, to airplay stream music to my phone at home. I was also going to buy a new blue tooth speaker and was wondering if after getting the music streamed to the phone, turning on blue tooth will this then redirect the music to the speaker?
Also, is there an app to give my phone actual airplay capabilities, not just making my phone a receiver for airplay but letting me push music/video out over airplay?
Thanks.

Wait so what music source exactly do you use with this? You said that no rom redirects audio to Bluetooth, yet I find it hard to believe if I connect my phone to a speaker via Bluetooth and play music out of, say Power amp, that THAT wouldn't work.

Using power amp only directs to certain BT frequency and when using the stock players it has always stopped when I try to swap to BT of course this is my experience u may have a more compatible BT device but this is just me u can try urself but this is what have found doesn't and hasn't worked
PS when I mean redirect I mean redirect the audio sound from the music player to the by device.

Wow... Then what exactly is the point in buying a speaker? I mean they advertise them to be compatible with like I phones, android, and all Bluetooth compatible devices don't they?

That's what I thought but then again there is always that 30 days of warranty lol if it don't work return and get ur money back but yeah it should work I've just never gotten it to work and Google xda and YouTube were my B****s when trying to find an answer

Random Zapping noise while listening to music

Not sure how to exactly describe the sound but I randomly get a ear piercing zapping noise while listening through earphones or connected to aux wire in the car. After it happens the volume gets lower and I have to pull out the wires and then restart the song. Anyone else experience this?
Fyi my setup is latest synergy r147. But it also happened since I had r125.
Maybe its just hardware related.
this is only happening in poweramp and not the stock player.

Not necessarily. It could be that your audio cable is damaged or there is a grounding loop if you're charging it as well

It's the file format themselves then. Which file formats do you notice cause the squeaking? For me, I noticed that wma and m4a files cause constant squeaking in PowerAmp whereas mp3's work fine. I have zero issues playing those same audio files in the stock player. Basically, any music files that I placed on my phone from Windows Media Player and iTunes cause music popping/cracking unless using the stock music player.

It's ridiculous that those two file formats cause issues for me. The worst part is I have those same exact files on my HTC Droid Incredible and have absolutely no issues. It was something I noticed immediately once I received my GSIII in July but previously had no issues with. Months ago I sent an email to the PowerAmp dev to inquire about this and they told me it was an issue with Samsung's firmware not their app. It seems like Samsung sabotaged music file compatibility with third party apps. I still love PowerAmp though.

I've been having the same problem. Whether its my ear phones, AV cable in the car or, at work it does it. Even on different apps (native music player, play music, and podcast app). I have an otter box so my ports are good and clean and no water damage. No idea why it happens but I've got a replacement on the way for an unrelated reason. So hopefully it won't do it too.

did you just restore same data for poweramp and play like it was before?hmm maybe i should get it too.
Sent from my SGS3 using Tapatalk 2
Fwiw I think I found the problem....it was a low voltage problem. When my voltages for kernel settings were tweaked to be lower I would immediately get the zapping sounds. Can't say what the levels were but anything I setup away from stock...it happened. Hope this helps anyone.

[Q] (Q) Headphone Jack Issues PLS Help!

Okay so I'm completely stumped at this problem. I plug in headphones, aux cords and my headphone icon becomes active, but when using music player or gallery video it acts as if headphones are being unplugged and plugged back in. Youtube works just fine and anything played through browser. I'm really at a loss here. I'm running 4.2.2 on a Chinese clone note 3. Any suggestions or help is appreciated!
Have you tried using a third party music player suck as Poweramp or Rocket Player? Do they have the same outcome?
I tried overplayed with the same outcome. I'm gonna download Pandora and see what happens with that. I just can't understand why youtube works fine.

Never mind on YouTube working I guess it was just acting right temporarily. I played a full song on YouTube earlier but now I get about 5 seconds or so on all sound through head phone jack.
