I stream Pandora, Slacker, iHeartRadio at work. Randomly but constantly the music stream stops and the programs shut down. I have to keep starting the programs up. Is this a normal Droid Charge problem. There is no sigle event that I can see causing it but sometimes it just seems as if I try to do something else with the phone, using more resources, it stops. Like the phone is freeing up resources and shuts down the feed / program. Is there some way I can make it stay on? My charge is totally stock using 2.2.1 but happened when I was using custo ROMS too. I used some ROMS with streaming audio fix included, but this did not help. I seem to have a good 4G signal, but sometimes it switches to 3G, but this should not close the program, it should just stop awaiting a signal. I also happens when batter is cold or hot. Any advice would be appreciated.

I was curious if anyone has experienced similar problems. While listening to Pandora in my car through the auxilary port, also having it charging with the cig lighter, it will constantly skip forward songs until Pandora says you cannot skip any more. After that it will start activating voice command. I don't know why this keeps happening, but it is highly frustrating as I am an avid Pandora user. The last thing that happens, is Sense UI resets after closing Pandora every time. Any suggestions? Has anyone had similar issues? Thanks for the help.
I actually have noticed that when in my truck streaming to my radio via bluetooth it skips forward a song, sometimes just one or w/e but yes I have had this issue as well, I cant recall if it was always plugged into the car charger or not but it normally is.
Same problem here. Plugged into the Aux and charging. Constantly skips songs till I cant stand it anymore. Turn it off and listen to the radio. Wish I knew what the deal was...
Looking forward to seeing what we could do to fix this...
Since the update, my Inspire locks up upon first use after connecting to my car. Reboots, then its ok. Anyone else experience anything like this and have any tips to correct it?
stupid thanks button.....
i havent had any problems with 2.3 and bluetooth. mine doesnt lock up when it connects to my car
Same
I have to force stop the Music app (poweramp). tried factory reset but no real difference. Also on the sony mex bt3800 I have, it will display icons for streaming and calls, well sometimes (of course) only one of those will turn on. Re-paired still doing it. grrrr.

I have the Mex-bt2800. You can turn the music streaming on by pressing the pause/play button when it's it bluetooth audio mode.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using the power of the dark side
Yeah, you'd like to think so, hit the arrow for play on poweramp right?
Well not quite as, if you start the car first then switch bluetooth on (you know powersaving) the message will display that the headset connected message then on the stereo , mostly, only the icon for media streaming will appear and the only reliable way to have both streaming and calls is to switch off bluetooth on the car stereo then switching it on again.
Froyo connected all time without issue and so did the 3GS i had previously.
The poweramp issue came about if you already had music playing through the internal speaker, started bluetooth, (you get the streaming media Icon on stereo) , then there would be no sound and poweramp would act if it had paused but no other button would work until it had been force stop. have only found time for a liittle bit of testing so can't tell much more about symptoms.
any other suggestions welcome
Hey there, I haven't had any issues with my BT either. I've used Ninja, Gingerbeast, and ARHD. I'm using it with the mex-bt3900 (i think thats right). i use it with the htc music app, google music app, pandora, and winamp. i havent had any lockups or anything on my end. what rom are you using? stock rom?

Still stock. Might root and see if those other roms make a difference. Saw comment on ace root kit thread about something new coming out on that so may put up it until what ever it is announced. Be nice to get rid of the att bloat too.
So no matter what application I'm using on my Radar and how I exit the app, i.e., just pause, back all the way out, etc. the music starts playing again when I turn off my BT headset. I've tried looking through settings to no avail.
bump........

That's odd. Music should automatically stop playing when your bluetooth device is shutoff.
It should not automatically start.
Please describe every detail of what you are doing, connected to, etc. Order and timing might be important.

Starting with phone idle
Turn on Bluetooth headset
Verify it is connected in Settings
Back out and go to a streaming app (has occurred in slacker and metroradio)
Stream music for any given amount of time
Either pause music, pause and back all the way out, just back all the way out, etc.
Shut screen/put in pocket
Turn off bluetooth headset
Music starts playing from phone speaker
Bump - happened again tonight. This time I paused from the lock screen just to test. Paused -> Screen Off -> BT off -> 10 seconds later, music starts
does it happen if you shut bluetooth off before shutting screen off?
Does it happen with Zune as music player ? Also does these apps have any settings for this kind of situation.

I don't use Zune. The only setting in Slacker is if I want Radio to resume automatically when Bluetooth is connected and that is turned off. Metro has nothing.
BUMP.........
You need the app "Stop the Music!
I had the same problem on my Lumia 800 today.. so awkward.....
I was at work and use a Logitech bluetooth docking station, playing music was fine, no problem at all.. I work a shoppingmall and while on my break I went in the another store just next to mine. A really hot girl works there and this lyrics came on highest volume:
"I'm fat, I'm Single, I'm ready to mingle"
here's a youtube link... Never been so embarrassed in my life, I managed to save my ass but only just! A fix would be superb!

I've had the same issue with the background audio from Podcasts! Pro. It doesn't do this with Zune. I'm guessing its an issue with the way the background api is being implemented.
Another thing i've noticed, when it switches to or from BT, the audio picks up from the last point before BT is connected. Example, if I'm listening to an hour long podcast, and I get 23 minutes into it before switching to BT, even when I listen to another 20 minutes of the podcast, it will revert back to the 23min point once BT is disconnected.
Same issue here
Hi,
I'm having the same issue here with a Mercedes B180 built in Handsfree and Lumia 800.
It happens with Wimp, not Spotify.
As a matter of fact music Streaming is not working at all from any app to this HF.
However: BT with my combination is ok for Contact Transfer and Phone functions so it's not a catastrophy, but....
One other thing: When turning ignition off, ongoing calls are disrupted and not returned to the handset...
Nokia Support said that this is a issue caused by them using the Microsoft BT Stack for Music Streaming while probably Mercedes is using some other (Widcomm, Toshiba...)
BTW: I've used iPhone in this scenario and it works fine with all functions.
So this morning I was driving and noticed something flashing on my car radio's screen. The "media playback" icon was flashing every few seconds while my phone was connected. I never stream bluetooth music as I have an iPod hookup so I have media streaming disabled under bluetooth options on my phone, and if I'm using navigation I don't get the navigation voice if I'm not using bluetooth streaming anyway. Does anyone have an idea as to why it's flashing? I'm about to download Better Battery Stats and see if that's what's causing my phone to drain faster than I believe it should. Under the battery information it seems my phone is waking up a LOT more than it should be. Preferably, I'd like to keep it when I don't stream bluetooth music on my radio. Also, on my old phone, a Galaxy Nexus, I never had this problem, so I doubt its my car radio.
Also, an afterthought (and unrelated issue), when I unplug my phone from the charger the screen doesn't turn on. This is the first phone I've had that has this behavior. Is this normal?
Hi,
Ive installed the Nexus wireless charging pad, in my car. It charges and works fine, but when I play spotify the music stutters all the time. Might get 3-4 min of clean music, but then it goes back to stuttering. I tought at first it might be because of low signal to the 4g network. Ive checked with full signal strenght and it still stutters. Tomtom even stutters when I use it with voice directions, and that app is offline.
Anyone got similar problems, or know how to fix it?
Cheers!
