Automatic Music?

Hi. Yesterday I put a bunch of Songs on my SD card on my sensation. Since then like twice Music started playing automatically out of nowhere.
Any way to fix this?
Is anybody having the same problem?

Do you use a headset with player controls?

Nope
Nope no headset.

Hmm, Which music app do you use?
Clear its data through Settings- Application- Manage Apppications

[Q] Beats and Skyrocket

So I have the Beats tour w/ Control talk. Whenever I plug it in my skyrocket it always lowers the volume to 0 gradually. Does anyone with beats headphones experiencing the same thing?
One more thing, on all my iPhones, I was able to skip songs by double tapping the mic key on the headphones. This doesn't work with the included headset & my beats. Only plays/pauses. Is that normal?

Control talk only works with iOS products. It will play/pause on android, but that's it. I have beats solo HD and have not experienced the volume issue. The audio output from our phone isn't great to begin with, so I have the Equalizer app, which does a nice job of making the audio sound better.

That sucks. What headphones have the same functionality as the iPhone headphones on android devices?

If you use the music playerpro music player it had the ability to change settings to allow play/pause skip forward/skip back with the control talk controller (I use the solo hd's), also is has a downloadable dsp pack that makes the eq function in the player superb there is a 5 or 7 day trial in the app store give it a shot set it up. I personally don't see using another music player since finding it,I delete all the players now in roms. Hope it works for you

Playerpro is pretty darn good. Thanks a lot man!

I was looking all over for this info for my beats...thanks!

Such a shame that you cant use the control on the mic to skip, rewind songs. Having to take out the phone after every other song is a HUGE hassle especially when you're on the move. Glad I kept my regular iPod, I definitely miss this feature on my iPhone 4.

You can skip, play, go back, pause all from the mic if you use player pro you just set it up within the player options, also has option to use volume buttons to skip forward and backwards

There's an app called "headset Button Controller" out there that you could try, see if that helps. Not sure the volume up/down can be considered as "buttons" with this app though, if so then it should work. You should be able to configure the app so a long press on button 1 for example increases the volume (if button 1 can = volume up or down button on the control talk clicker...).
You can try it for free - I would post a link but I'm new so I'm not allowed...

T-mobile US 1.84 update deleted sound enhancer presets

I just updated my T-mobile One S to 1.84 and noticed that on the music player, HTC deleted all the different sound presets that were available under menu->sound enhancer!!
Before, I could choose from 5 different beats audio settings, and many other non-beats presets. Now, I go to menu->sound enhancer and there is just beats on or beats off . Beats makes some music sound a bit harsh, and I would usually leave it at Classic preset, and now it is gone.
Anyone else notice this?

Yep, gone on mine also. TMOUSA

I've heard from an One S review(was told by a HTC staff), it will now change to auto detection which beats you are plugging in and no more manual selection.

What happens when a non beats headphone is plugged in...how does it determine the equalization then?
I have iBeats, but when I connect it to my system in my auto, I prefer the Beats Pro setting.
I also have stereo bluetooth headsets and a pair of Sony Pro Studio Monitors...
Now I guess I'm stuck with "on or off"

This sucks any way to roll it back?

Same happenned with eu update 1.73 i think

[REQUEST] Sound ducking on Sense 4.0

In the months I've been on here I havent heard any mention of this. I was wondering if there is any mod or something similar that would allow sound ducking on sense 4 roms.
What I mean:
For those who don't know the sound ducking, I'm talking about is like what is in cyanogen. When listening to music or playing media and a notification comes in, the media volume drops lower and the notification noise comes in.
How it currently is on SENSE 4:
When listening to media and a notification comes in, the media completely cuts off for about a second, the notification then plays with some delay and finally the music/media comes back.
This doesn't seem that bad but it can become quite annoying, especially on car rides when there's a bunch of friends in the car or when I have my phone hooked up to the stereo on the other side of the room. It's a nice feature that I've seen since at least cm7, I hope someone knows something.
Thanks

Notifications pause music when using Spotify

How do I stop the music from pausing when a notification comes in?
I don't want to mute notifications. With my HTC Evo, it would reduce the volume on the music, but keep playing it.
Is there a system setting for this?

When you listen to music just put your phone on vibrate, you still feel the notification but it doesn't mute the music. I use Spotify so I know this works.

Thanks for the tip. This will work when I'm using it at work. But at home, I have my surround sound system connected to the phone via bluetooth. So I have Spotify playing on the surround speakers and it's annoying for it to interrupt the music - but I still need to hear the notification when I'm in another room.
Any ideas?

I have never used spotify, but this may work. If you have tasker, you can probably make a profile for when you connect to your bluetooth, and make a task which will put your phone on vibrate, but allow you to create a custom notification sound play using a different audio stream (like alarm or media) Some of choices for audio stream should allow you to hear the notification without it pausing spotify.

Thanks. Wish I could try it out before buying. There's no other way?

Late to the party here. Wtf is with the last post date? 1970? Anyways.. *edit, now the date displays correctly. ****in' tapatalk!
Have you tried an app called "sound about" in the play store? Check it out and see if it does what you need.
