[Q] Google Music stops playing after each song - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I am playing mp3s from SD card through the google music app (not streaming disabled) and the music will stop after each song. As soon as I hit the power button the next song will begin.
It really bothers the hell out of me. Any ideas? It is bone stock rom.

Have you updated the app? it went away after the app update

Nope. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, same effect.
I install power amp and it seems to be working.

Do you have juice defender or another batter saving app?

I have the same problem, but for me ots just sometimes. But it does bug me, having to hit next after the each songs.

I gave up on the google music widget. I just use power amp. It works 100%.
I am not using any battery saving programs. Bone stock.

I have the same problem with Amazon MP3. The stock player works fine and just downloaded Poweramp to try that one.

I was having the same problem too then realized that shuffle was turned on by default and causes that for some reason. As soon as I turned shuffle off it played all tracks like it's supposed to.

Wow that sucks but good to know. I always use shuffle. I will have to try it without shuffle.
I've been diggin on Poweramp anyway and that works great on shuffle.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App

Yeah it sucks. I don't use shuffle. I was really annoyed with it not playing the next track especially since I was listening to it in the car. When I looked through everything on the app I realized that shuffle was on even though I didn't select it, turned it off and everything went back to normal.

[Q] Bluetooth Audio - Play/Pause

Hi All,
Anyone use their Nexus S with Bluetooth audio much?
I use it in the car connected to a Parrot in car system, mostly for podcasts in BeyondPod and Spotify.
While I can use the play/pause button to stop playback (if I've started playback on the device itself), I can't use the same button to resume playback. No matter what I've tried so far, I cannot get it to work.
It's kind of annoying when I accidentally catch the pause button, and have to fumble around for the phone to resume.
I tried freezing the stock Music app to see if that was grabbing the bluetooth playback control from BeyondPod, but that didn't help.
Could it be specific to the rom I'm running, or is this a known issue with the way Android works right now?
Thanks for any info...

Unless there's something odd with your head unit then it's either an app or a rom issue. Play / pause / resume works fine for me over by with a stock rom foe the stock music player, slacker radio, audiogalaxy and audible.

works here also.....
Thanks for the replies. Sounds like it's worth some further investigation then. I'll flash stock and try a bit of trial and error.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
So I tried flashing back to stock. Installed only Beyondpod and the same symptoms happened: pause ok, can't resume.
Then I installed Spotify, and found similar, although on one occasion pausing and playing Spotify caused Beyondpod to start. Only happened once though.
At this point, I'm thinking maybe the Parrot needs a software update. Especially if it's working OK for others.

[Q] Google Music doesn't advance songs with screen off.

I haven't seen this posted anywhere, but no matter which rom I use (tried them all, currently on Revolver 0.2) when the screen is off, Google Music won't advance to the next song in the playlist. It buffers and is loaded because as soon as I hit the power button to turn the screen on (don't even have to swipe to unlock) the next song starts playing.
Anyone else have this issue or an idea of how to fix it? It's frustrating only listening to one song at a time. Thanks!
noticed that aswell i had it also play a few songs before i had to repower it.
Same here. But worse, when I turn on the screen to advance the song, there is now crackling and static in the audio, which only goes away by closing and restarting the Music app.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
Yeah, I get the crackling too, but I've found that it goes away if I just pause it for two seconds and then resume playing.
Very annoying indeed, unless you set the screen to never turn off. Anyone know of any 3rd party app that can advance through the songs?
I think this is an issue with Google Music. I sometimes have the same issue with GM on my Evo.
I have no issue with GM on my MyTouch 4g.
Mine advances to next songs fine with screen off, been using it for a couple weeks, in fact I'm listening to Adema now on it as I work and it's advancing fine with screen off.
Change your WiFi Sleep Policy to never. I think what's happening is that when its going to the next song, WiFi is deactivated because your tablet is in idle status.

My Tf wifi is set to never, still has the same problem. Google Music has a bug, all of my other music players work flawlessly. The GM pause even happens to me with local music.
Ignore me I should have read the thread title before posting, apologies to all!

Guess you don't know what Google Music is?
Google Music syncs with a online playlist. More info @ http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/11/google-music-beta-walkthrough-what-it-is-and-how-it-works-vide/
Thanks, to be perfectly honest I skim read the title and just assumed it was the stock music player app that was being referred to as that has exactly the same issue. I knew of Google music before.
Sorry for the misplaced reply.
Looks like this is fixed in 3.2, at least on mine. No more reaching for the power button to goto the next track. Thanks Google.

Happening to me on 3.2 but on my acer iconia both the lack of next song and static
I'm on the latest firmware and it doesn't seem to be fixed. Clear Data and everything else doesn't seem to work as well. Any ideas?

(Q) volume "jumping"?

I don't really know what else to call it but I haven't seen anyone else mention it. Whenever I have music running, at random when I touch the screen, lock/unlock/wake up my phone, or open an app, there will be a really quick high spike in the volume. It happens with the stock music player, power amp, and n7player. Anyone got an idea of what's going on or ever experienced it?

Have you installed Music Volume EQ? It happens if you close that application.

Do you have tones enabled?
In PowerAmp somewhere in the options theres something about loose focus to other players can't remember exactly but that should be disabled also DVC should be on if not.

Is that the EQ that comes with the stock player? If so, then yes.

I usually keep my phone on vibrate when I listen to music just because I get annoyed when I get a text and the tone blocks the song out for a second or three. I'll play around with poweramp and see what happens!
Has anyone else experienced this?

Google Play Music Skips

I'll start with this:
I'm on build 20 of klin1344's PACman rom
Newest version of Play Music
AC!D sound mod installed
-if I recall correctly my issue existed before I installed acid.
What I've been experiencing is skipping while playing music through be play music app. Not skipping as though it's struggling to buffer, but whenever I tap the screen, within as well as outside of the app. The issue isn't new to today's update, as it's been a problem I've always dealt with. It also doesn't have anything to do with streaming music vs playing music stored on the device, skips while tapping occur regardless.
I've searched around to no avail, so I do hope one of you can be of assistance.
Thanks

I have had this issue since I got my S3 a few weeks ago too. When I unlock my phone, type in password, or otherwise click the screen, the music skips.
This even happens when I am using Spotify to play music.
EDIT: BTW I am on AOKP ROM.
I failed to mention that poweramp runs smooth as a baby's bottom. Not the case with play music.

I have the same problem like it will return to the lock screen and then the Google music widget and the camera widget like combined and start flickering. this is when playing a song stored on the device as well as the new Google music access they came out with. Mine just pauses forever though and its annoying. I also have power amp and it works beautifully. this happens whether I'm on WiFi or cell data. Good thing this is a free 30 day trial!

I actually did end up figuring out what was wrong. A simple disabling of the system touch sounds and you're good to go. It was trying to compensate for the sound at the same time as playing the music, like when you get a text message it lowers the volume, plays the notification sound, and resumes at normal volume.
Jwattt I don't know why that happens, but it also happens to me. Weird.

I'm currently running liquidsmooth 2.4 on 4.2.2 android and there is no system touch sounds option. I believe this is only for touchwiz roms? I think my problem is something to do with how the widget is handled on the lockscreen. I know it's not just this rom too because I switched from MROM and before that deviant xone and since they are all pretty much based of Cyanogenmod I think it's some kind of mis match somewhere.

Google Music Bluetooth issues?

does anyone have weird issues with Google Music and Bluetooth audio? I have my phone paired with my cars BT system and sometimes, even though I'm not playing any BT audio, I'll take my phone out of sleep and the lock screen will show an album cover from my Google music.. even though no music is playing over BT.. any ideas?
Thanks, just got my Nexus and I'm loving it so far

Same thing happens to me. It's because Play Music doesn't actually shut down when you close it , but rather stays running in the background somehow, even though it's listed as inactive on app manager. To close it completely, you have to kill it.
