The audio on my M8 sounds different until I hit home - Verizon HTC One (M8)

Hi,
So I've had my M8 for a little while, rooted stock rom. I've been noticing lately that the music sounds kind of muffled and odd when a song starts until I hit the Home button, then it's normal. It does this every time there is a new song playing, happens with both Google Play and Pandora (I didn't try anything else, I only use those 2), and happens with both my Skullcandy headphones and the earbuds that came with the phone, and some other ones that were laying around the house. It doesn't do this when connected to my car with bluetooth though. I haven't done any sound mods or anything. It's driving my crazy!
Thanks!

I've noticed it while playing through my car. I just turn up the volume lol

Changing the volume doesn't do anything for me.
It sounds kind of muffled / mixed poorly (I hear more of the background) until I press the home key.

[Q] Sensation in car - screen unlocks

I see people had this problem for months with different Android phones, but I have to check to see if anything had changed with the Sensation... or is there an app to help... I can't believe nobody handled this serious issue.
When I pair my Sensation with the car audio system via the Bluetooth and answer the call by pressing the button on the wheel, the screen of the phone is unlocked. If I move even slightly, or the car hit a bump on the road, something is pressed and strange things happen. It sometimes ends the call, switch the speakerphone off etc. I need the screen to stay locked while using Bluetooth hands free.
Is there an application that helps in these situations?

Found new annoying Optimus 3D Max bug.

I recognized that my speakers always make a weird clicking sound, like they were turning on, while I'am using the phone. I't goes like this: I press a icon on the screen and immediately after that the clicking sound from the speakers appears and then there is a rush for about two seconds. I can reproduce this bug nearly 70% a day, but just not always. You can here the rush when you're holding your ear beside the speakers right after the click, but the clicking sound is noticeable even while you are starring at your phone. Maybe some can test that and share their results here.

Strange Google music issue

So, I have never had this happen on other phones, and this is the first time it happened on my N5. I was standing in line at the bank, I had just put my phone in my back pocket while I was standing there, and I heard some music, and thought to myself "That's strange, I was just listening to this song" then I noticed it was coming from my back pocket. My music had started playing, and the last time I was listening to music on the actual phone was last night.
Has anyone had this happen?
Never had that happen to me before. Do you have any mods installed (Xposed or something) that would start an action when long pressing a volume button or anything like that?
By the way, I see you are from Stockton. I'm from Lodi. lol

Hey Neighbor. LOL
Yeah I have gravitybox installed, but no settings that look like they would cause that. and I just tried holding the volume buttons, and nothing, I do have it set to skip tracks, but that's it.

The only thing I can think that would do that is if you had the music controls on the lockscreen still, which I think happens if you stop the music on the lockscreen and dont unlock the phone. Then maybe the button might have been pushed to turn the screen on and the play button was pressed. But you said it was the night before that you were listening to it so I don't know.

Too loud speaker phone

I have a problem... Speaker phone is shouting in to my ear and I am unable to tune the volume down: it will not react to volume buttons during a call and I could not find any other way to adjust it.
People are "shouting in to my ear and I start talking loud as well... Very frustrating.
Any suggestions?
- Try restarting the phone
Tried that at least once in past 6 months of usage.
- Reflash stock
It is stock.
Anyone else have ideas? How does (and should for me) volume control work on your phones?
- Re-flash stock, because maybe you change something or installed a mod that interfere with the speaker.

Why is headset with one button cause phone to do random things?

Randomly, my phone started doing weird things when my headset is plugged in. It has never done this before. I have a feeling that this started when I Assigned Buttons that was meant for 3-buttoned headset on to mine with one button.
Every time I set it to control music playback, it randomly plays different music from my music app. And when I set it to control volume level, the volume goes crazy. But I tried headphones with no buttons at all and it doesn't do crazy things.
I have MIUI 11.0.5 and I've tried searching for this problem but I couldn't find a solution. Is there, like, a way to reset the settings for the assigned buttons?
Also, let me ask this, why doesn't my settings doesn't have options for one buttoned headset?

I had the same issue. Turned out it was the issue with the headphone buttons. I just claimed money for the headphones and got refunded in full. If your headphones have warranty, claim it. If not, then there is just one thing you can do, put feviquick on the heaphone button so it can't be pressed at all.
P.S: It might even make the headphones unusable. Proceed with caution.
