Music not playing on my Skyrocket? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

ok this is a weird one. I have my music on my external MicroSD. Just today the stock Google Music Player started acting really weird by being choppy and slow and playing some songs but not others. Poweramp wont boot at all, it just flashes the bootsplash then goes back to the app list.
I can browse the MicroSD with File Explorer but i'm still not sure its on the way out or not. Even the phone has trouble detecting it sometimes.
Very weird stuff...
Any ideas?

Try opening up manage apps then find media storage. Force stop then clear data. Then reboot and let your phone rebuild the media libraries.

[Q] music player issues

Does anyone had any problem with their motorola xoom music player? Mine had been acting up recently, regardless if I am using stock apps or downloaded apps, or youtube, the music player will automatically pops up and played the tracks like I opened it. Even when I force close it, it will later pop back up again.
Anyone had similar problems?
I personally haven't.

[Q] Strange problem with Doubletwist when exiting Car Mode

Anyone else experiencing this? I have all sorts of weird issues with Car Mode, but this one takes the cake.
Whenever the Infuse exits Car Mode (whether I have launched Doubletwist in the recent past or not doesn't seem to matter), my Infuse will start playing music over the speaker from Doubletwist.
Launching Doubletwist and pausing play doesn't work, the music continues to play until I go into task manager and kill Doubletwist from there.
All I've got to say is WTF?

I have same problem when i use my Logitech speakers through me headphone jack or when I disconnect my Bluetooth. And mine keeps playing the same freaking song. Haven't figured it out myself either.
OK, that might narrow it down to disconnecting from bluetooth, since that's part of the exit from car mode. I had some unrelated issues with Navigation and did a factory reset yesterday and I'm reinstalling doubletwist. I got rid of AZW launcher as a result of this and haven't reinstalled it. I'll see if this problem continues.
Yep
Still happening with doubletwist even after the factory reset. This has to be a doubletwist bug.

I have had an issue with bluetooth doing this at disconnect. It has primarily been an android issue....not specific to any rom or phone.
Scenario 1. music playing, car gets turned off ie bt device off, music continues to play.
Scenario 2. music playing, car gets turned off ie bt device off, music pauses but resumes randomly
There was once some info in the Evo forums about this but It will take some digging for me to find it. The only solution I can think of now it to completely end (or kill on apps like doubletwist and mixzing) the music app prior to disconnect.
I will see if I can find the googl issue and the info I recall seeing in the evo forum.

I really don't think it's the same thing, actually. What you are describing seems to be a missed event (BT disconnect) that should stop an already running process (music player, doubletwist, etc).
What's happening to me is that doubletwist isn't even running in the first place and it starts playing music on BT disconnect. When you launch doubletwist to stop the music, it shows that it is NOT playing anything, while the task manager shows that it is and the music only stops when the process is killed.
I checked on doubletwist's forums and this issue has been raised and has 12 votes, beginning back in 2010, and they've chosen to not fix it.
I uninstalled doubletwist today and the problem has not reoccurred with a different app, so I think that pretty much points the finger at the app, rather than Android.

that is really odd....
I have issues with a few of my music apps that are very similar. (can't stand doubletwist so that isn't one)
many of them have no dedicated stop/end function, so even if i back out...they still linger in the background unless forcestop
THEN...when the disconnect event takes place they start playing
in your case it sounds like you verified doubletwist is not in task list running, bt disconnects/exit car mode and it starts itself?
I haven't gone so far as to check the task list before disconnect, but doubletwist had not been launched by me. I suppose it's possible it was lurking in the background if Android was running it without my knowledge, but that seems unlikely as often as this happens.
I'm chalking this up to a badly coded app and moving on.

Gotcha....yeah i ditched doubleteist for that reason...there were several system events that troggered it to open on its own...mainly plugging the phone in to a charger...the phone would go into mass storage mode every time.
U made the right decision lol

[Q] Music Enhancer constantly crashing when listening to music

So I just got my one no more than 3 hours ago, been setting it up and just put my SD card in. Went to play some music and after about 4 seconds Music Enhancer crashes. This just keeps happening until i stop listening it music, even if i'm not in the music app. I've tried deleting the app folder in Android > Data, disabling all download options in settings, then clearing cache on Music Enhancer. After a reboot, it still happens. Has anyone run into this?

I've run into this too, but with my M8 on Sprint. I haven't found any solutions yet, though. Anybody?
Yup!
I have the same problem here.
Unfortunately I have still not found a solution. I've just disabled all the music enhancer functions which has stopped it, but i'd really like to get the album art downloader working. I just don't understand the issue....
Are you all using SDCards? how much music do you have?
64GB SD here, with about 2,000 songs. Maybe it's being overloaded?

Yea, I'm using an SD card. 32 GB with 14GB of music on it. Not sure the song count, though.

SD Card problems?

My S8+ recognizes my SD card and had no problem playing music from it. However often times my files disappear for a moment and only shows music stored on the internal storage. Does anyone else have this problem?
nope mine works as designed

I haven't seen my music missing, but whenever I go back to the music player and press play it plays only the songs on the internal sd. Like I'll be listening to an album, stop, and then when I want to come back later, the music player is showing an a sonfg I have in the internal as the current song. And if I hit next it just starts shuffling all my internal songs. Really annoying. It that makes sense
That sounds similar to my issue. I have my music on my SD card and it will randomly disappear for a moment and only show the songs on the internal storage. If I hit next song or shuffle it will come back though. Not a huge issue but pretty annoying.

Mines Samsung. The free one that I got from them for ordering the S7 Edge. And I just googled. Seems a lot of people are having the same issue
Is it a 10? I have a sundisk and doesnt seem to fit. May just wait for the vr deal n use that one.

anybody use black player?

Just got a pixel 2 and i have always used Black Player for one key reason. When im playing music via Bluetooth, and i get a notification, it only lowers the volume for about a second and resumes which is really nice. Well, Black Player is not finding ANY of my music. I installed power amp just to test, and it found everything including playlists. However power amp is stupid when you get a notification because it completely mutes the music for about 3 seconds which is extremely annoying.
Is there any way to force it to look in a specific location? I think whats happening is its trying to find an sdcard because the on screen text is saying "put music files on the sd card".
alternatively, if there are any other decent players that do the same thing in regard to notifications im open to trying them.
EDIT: so it looks like blackplayer should use the music library via android. when i try to use the google play app it doesnt find the music either. Power amp actually lets you pick a specific folder so i think thats why that one works. still gotta be some way to force it to work. maybe its as easy as moving my music folder to a different spot.
