Music skips? - HTC Inspire 4G

I've tried the stop music app and player pro. Whenever I'm listening to it myself the music is fine but when I plug my headphones in or it in the car the songs will skip turn off the apps will just turn off and on again. I don't think its the headphone Jack because it works and whenever it doesn't skip the music plays fine :/ any ideas?

More info...which rom are you using?
I got your 10 char right here

I'm running absolution 3.6. I couldn't tell you if this happened before I rooted because I bought it used and just recently put music on my phone and haven't really used headphone but last few days when I plugged it into a car Jack it started acting up. It will skip sings it will skip artist and it will just stop playing overall but it doesn't happen all the time I'd say 3/5 times.

Well if your using abso (yeah I'm on the team over here) then you one of the first to report such an issue that I know of. If you wouldn't mine, please repost in the Absolution Q&A and we can get more minds on this.
Me personally on abso I have used power amp (my fav), stock player, several others, and Google music. It all works perfectly.

Okay I'm on the app ill try to navigate over to there but I wouldn't have thought this as a rom issue but who knows ill try out power amp as well. I am just unsure bc if its a hardware issue then a sensor must be off because just playing through the speakers I don't have problems... ill try Pandora radio today in the car and if it is still acting up ill take it to the Q&A thanks again man

The problem has something to do with your headphones. Jacks can be loose and the phone really doesn't like headphones that doesn't have the extra band on the plug for the mic.
My 2 suggestions are to either use headphones with a mic or install "Headset Blocker" by Roadkill from the Market. It is free and will block those signals telling your music to fast forward or skip to the next track.

I will take a look onto that... I am useing skullcandies and know its not them Haha but the have the second band I will try the app and report back

Well they don't have a mic do they? No you don't have the separate band for a mic.

Sorry about that I misread you saying extra band for a Mic -.- my apologies no they don't have a mic and neither does the male to male cable that I use in the car.

Whether it is a software or a hardware issue, it has always been a issue with the inspire and many other phones.
It is the mic band on your headset plug that is used to switch tracks or fast-forward songs on your phone. When using earphones that connection is now bridged with the ground connection already. Although the phone is supposed to detect headset/ headphones it does it poorly sometimes. So it could be the poor software or simple static bounces due to a loose jack that is causing this to happen.
Using headphones with a mic will isolate this connection and should stop the problem. You could pick up a mic adapter from ebay or any electronics shop that should do the trick too. Or simply use that app mentioned and it will turn the ability off to switch tracks or fast-forward. Or you could use a different music app that doesn't support that feature.

Well I tried it earlier with my headphones and didn't have a problem I also used car mode then went to my music when I was in the car yesterday and it worked so ill just keep the app mentioned always on thank-you guys so much

Does this phone have bad Bluetooth ??

I'm curious to find out if anyone has issues with Bluetooth. I just spent a decent amount for a high quality Bluetooth stereo headset so I can listen to music while jogging or bike riding with no wires, and for some reason I can't seem to get good signal with it unless the phone is less than a foot away. I know the WiFi in this phone sucks completely, so I was curious if the Bluetooth sucked too.

your antenna or something must be broken if you have to be that close
It sounds like all around you need a new phone, I have never used Bluetooth but from the sounds of it there are internal problems

Make sure the headset supports A2DP and Bluetooth 3.0.
I am able to stream shoutcast over 3g/bluetooth from my phone to my Pioneer DEH-P9800BT no problem.
I just got a new bluetooth 3.0 set from Fry's for like $30 and it has been working fine. Haven't tried music streaming yet.
Link here:

I have some issues with connecting and have to repair everytime but not sure if that's my kernel or cm7 or the headset itself. Will check later.
I'm on cm nightlie and have my issue....have tried different nightlies with same issue...but haven't tried other peoples roms cause their still based on cm7... mines support ap2d not sure about Bluetooth 3.0....

unable to transmit voice using aux cable in car

i cant transmit on my tb when its plugged in to my aux port in my car. i can hear just fine through the car speakers.
i did a xda search and Google search, cant find solution.
checked sound settings and tried different kernel.
can i get an assist?
CM 7 1.4.
Elaborate on transmit? Do you mean it won't pick up on your voice?
i can hear the person i am calling but they cant hear me. sorry, im in the navy and use the naby lingo
CM 7 1.4.
well, ehen it's plugged in through the aux it's basically the same as plugging in headphones... just instead of it going through headphones, it goes through your car stereo. basically, it's only for audio out from the phone. it will not pick up your voice.

Works like a champ. I have a really good set of headphones I listen to music and audiobooks on. They're very durable and sound pretty good. First set I've had that lasted me more than 4-6 weeks. No inline microphone. Now I can just use the on-board mic.

Are you also charging your phone at the same time? Car chargers tend to make the phone's audio jack all buzzy.

[Q] Auxiliary Audio Out Problem

Hello,
I just switched over to the HTC One S T-Mo version from the GS2. Phone is great has its pluses and minuses over the GS2 however I am having one little issue with my device.
Whenever I try to use audio out into my car stereo it does not work it plays through the phone speaker. I was wondering if there was a setting for that on the phone? I looked on everything option I could think of. At first I thought it was the cable, but I tested it on my friends GS2 and my Ipod as well and still works flawlessly. Then I thought it was the app( Google play) but I also tried with pandora and youtube and still no dice.
I used the search on here but came out empty, just wondering if you guys knew anything about this?
P.S. I tried two HTC ONE S's already both same thing.
Thank You
Not really and answer, but I tried using mine as well through aux input in my car, and same issue. I got a replacement from T-Mobile because the tech at the help desk said it shouldn't do that. I've tried 2 different cables in 2 different cars and same result. Sound through One S speaker. Really annoying. I had the Sensation which worked fine but not sure why this phone will play through the headphones but not through car speakers.

I agree that's how it should work. When I have my head phones in, I get sound through the head phones, but when I use it through my car stereo(I've tried 2 cars, 2 different cables) the sound comes through the one s speaker not the car speakers. All my other phones have worked the right way but this continues to play through phone speaker. Weird. This is my 2nd one s. I returned the 1st because of this very issue. Thank you.

Auxiliary Mode
My car stereo has an AUX mode that I have to manually switch it to when I want to play music from my phone through my car speakers. I noticed that some devices will switch my stereo into that mode, where as my One S will not. I suggest that you check and see if there is a way to manually enter this AUX mode from the stereo as that may be something that you never noticed because its been doing it for you this whole time.
Thank you. I have manually put it into aux mode and still one s speaker. I am going to try it in my Toyota today and see if it works. Hopefully not 0 for 3. I just wasn't sure if there was a setting on the one S I'm missing. Just seems weird that it's my 2nd one s and 2 different cars and 2 different wires.

There is an app on the market that will force the sound through the auxiliary output. I forget the name, you could try that.
So it works for headphones?

Try SoundAbout from the market. While it's not an official fix it should get your desired result.
If it works with headphones then I don't think your phone is the problem, it just doesn't make any sense. Set the radio to AUX, start the music on the phone and plug it while its playing, see if that works. I am at a loss.
I did that as well,I could hear the static "pop" through the car speakers when I plug in the aux jack, but it just continues to play through the phone speaker on all 3 cars. Thank you.

That sounds like BS, I have a cable that I made myself and it works just fine.

ROM suggestions to enable Bluetooth calls while playing music.

Hey everyone.
Here's the story. I came from a droid 4 and would play music off the phone through the 1/8 jack on the top into my trucks aux in. A Bluetooth call would come in and it would pause the music and the Bluetooth call would come through no problem.
Now, with my Verizon s3, I can't hear the person on the other side unless I unplug the cable to the aux in.
My question is if someone can recommend a ROM to accomplish this. So far I've tried synergy and axis and both won't work properly.
Thanks!

There is an app called SoundAbout will do that for you.
Thanks. I tried that. It works. But being a tinkerer, I kept trying ROMs. CM 10.1 works great. The last nightly has no problems so far.
