[Q] Music player stops in Galaxy S Plus Value Pack - General Questions and Answers

Hi, I've recently made an upgrade from Stock GB 2.3.6 on my Galaxy S Plaus i9001 to the brand new Value Pack.
Strangely, when I try to listen music using my headphones, the music just stops after 1 second and, even if I hit play again, after the same 1 sec the player pauses. This keeps happening and I can't get it to listen music since then.
I could try to download other players, such as Winamp, but now I'm getting a error message of "Error downloading 'Winamp'. There is insufficient space on the device". I have more than 600MB of free space in applications folder.
One more thing: I still didn't made factory reset. The upgrade made in Odin worked pretty well and I could keep all my configurations of files and apps without having to wipe data.
HELP please!!!

Samsung direct
Hi,
I am no expert with this as I long ago moves away from the stock rom's supplied by Samsung.
If you have upgaded via Kies and you have this problem then I would go straight to the source and call Samsung. I had a couple of issues in the early days and called them and they actually helped me (I am in Australia).
Good luck.

I have the same with a samsung s2, apparently this is a problem with the cm9 version of the music player. Have you got that one installed? IF so Uninstall it and see if that helps

I have finally found what was happening. I use a app called Bellman.
There is a feature that when you press twice the headset button, you can hear the hour, just like OS X does. But Bellman was taking control of audio the whole time.
So I sent a message to developers and wad reported that is a issue in some phones, like my Galaxy. Then I only needed to turn off the option and case solved!

Developer asking for help - Droid 2 specific problem

Hi Guys,
I was hoping someone with a DROID 2 could confirm a proposed problem with my application on the android market.
Essentially, a user has informed me that installing my application, then receiving a text message, results in my app announcing & buzzing the caller (as expected), but then causes any music to stop playing through the headphone jack permanently until my application is un-installed. At which point the device goes back to normal.
Now, I've obviously tested this, and have no problem with a Nexus One, or HTC DZ.
I was hoping someone with a DROID 2 (running Android 2.2), could test this and let me know if it's something I should actually be concerned with.
Application:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dazbradbury.namebuzz
Any help would be much appreciated, the app is already free, so I can't offer anything in return...
Cheers,
dazbradbury.
The user states you can re-produce this by:
1) Start music playing on your phone, and listen with headphones.
2) Send yourself a text message
This will result in NameBuzz announcing & vibrating the caller, followed by the music never playing again...
Thanks again,
Daz.
Just tried it, music still playing fine, i don't see anything wrong with it.

[Q] Problems with playing music, ringtones, etc.

I bought two Charges last week, one for me and one for the wife. Both of us have been having similar issues with music and/or ringtones randomly not playing on our phones. My wife has missed several calls because the ringtone that she downloaded from Zedge mysteriously stopped working, so the phone acted as if it were on silent mode. I noticed several instances where I can't listen to music on my phone due to a "Error playing the requested track" error within the Google Music app. At first, I thought my problem was due to the fact that I was trying to stream music that I've uploaded, but I was given the same error when I attempted to listen to music stored directly on the SD card.
Thinking that my problem was due to some weird issue with the Google Music app, I tried to play the music on my SD card from the built-in Music Player app and I was quickly prompted with an unsupported file type error. Rebooting both our phones seems to fix the problem, but I've had to do this at least two to three times on my phone, and once on my wife's. It seems that the problem always comes creeping back without warning.
Neither of our phones are rooted, and nothing else has been done to the phone that I can think of that would cause this issue.
In short, music/ringtones/etc. will randomly stop playing regardless of their source (SD card, downloaded, stream). Since the problem is on both of our phones, I'm guessing that this is a common issue on all Droid Charges.
Has anybody else experienced this issue? What are your recommendations on fixing it? Should I just take the phones back to Best Buy and get replacements?
=Edit=
Okay...something is definitely up. I just went to watch a video on the YouTube app, and saw no video. I tried other videos and got the same result. Sure enough, I tried to listen to some music and was given the above mentioned error. What the hell?
I would take them back to Best Buy. Ive never heard of this problem. And if youtube is not playing then there seems to be and underlying problem.
I was having this same problem every so often, typically after having the phone on for a few days without turning it off. I am rooted an running a custom ROM so I thought it might have something to do with that, but obviously that is not the case. I turn my phone off whenever I charge it at night and have not had the problem since doing that. Long story short, I would return the phone if you can, but just turning the phone off and then back on (not rebooting) has fixed the problem for me every time.
Try uninstalling the official twitter app if you have it, reboot, and try again. That usually solves that.

[Q] No Ringtones/Youtube Won't Play

Okay, this problem has been bugging me for a while. The ringtones that came with my SGS4G play when I select them, but my others (ringtones, mp3's, stuff created in RingDroid) will not play. This also affects music playback. I get an error that the file is corrupted.
Now the interesting part: if I reset my phone, I can play the sounds again, no problem. After a few days though, it starts happening again. As for the Youtube videos, they play fine, then after a couple of days they stop playing. If I reset the phone, they play again.
My phone is rooted.
Firmware: 2.2.1
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Stock Froyo Build
I have CacheMate and Super Manager cleaning out my caches whenever they can.
I checked all possible sound stuff (Airplane Mode, no ringtones on silent, etc..) and still have the problem.
This problem started before I ever rooted my phone. Any help you guys could give would be appreciated. Thanks.
You said it is affecting music playback as well have you tried a different SD card? I had one go bad on me and I was having similar issues before it completely died. The Youtube videos however are playing from the internet right?

This is intriguing.... you can either:
1) Since your rooted, you can get CWM and install a custom rom. Might fix your problem since it's most likely a software problem i think.
2) Since your still stock and just rooted, and also it started before you were rooted, try sending it in to tmobile.
I suggest try #2 first and if they don't do anything about, try #1.

Help! Google Music streaming error on Android App

Ever since I got my new phone, I've used Google Play Music because I love it so much. But whenever it streams music that's not off the phone, about two thirds through the song, it always stops and then states "Could not play the stream you requested" No matter what I do it still does it, low quality or high quality, 3G or Wifi. I've cleared the cache countless times, I've uninstalled updates and restarted and reinstalled updates like suggested in another post, but nothing works! I switched from SiriusXM app to the Google Music All Access since it was cheaper and now it's doing this still! So frustrating! I only have 2 devices authorized as well. Please help!
Phone is rooted LG AS730 (LG Optimus Select)
Thank you,
What's going on with the stream stopping!?
I'm having the same issue! It's very frustrating. I am actually prepared to pay for the Google streaming service but at this point I think I may just have to cancel it before the 30 day trial is complete. LG Optimus G

[HELP] Music stutters (every ROM, every music player)

Hello guys. I've been having this issue since I've first bought my Nexus 5, thought I could finally solve it if I shared it with you.
Almost one year ago, I got my Nexus, and since I didn't like Play Music at all I downloaded Poweramp from the Play Store. I immediately noticed that some song in my library stuttered and skipped. I tried to set Audio Thread Priority and Audio Buffer higher in Poweramp, but that was useful. Then, using other audio players (I'm using Shuttle+ now) I realized the hiccups would show up at the same points in the same songs. When I tried to delete one of my troubled songs and to transfer it again on my device via USB, the skipping was gone. This makes me guess this is some kind of memory problem. Furthermore, I can't do the replace thing for all of my 4000+ songs; if I delete all of my songs and then I transfer all of them again, the hiccups show up again randomly in other songs.
During this time, I made the switch from stock 4.4.4 to CM11, and then back to stock 5.0 when it came out a month ago, but this issue has always been present. I recorded an example of an hiccup and I attached it here. You can clearly hear that at 3 and 19 seconds mark. Has this kind of issue affected someone else? Can it be solved at all?
Anyone?

Sounds like you're having file transfer problems to me. Not sure how you can fix that. Maybe try a different method of getting music on your phone.
