I hope someone can help me with this. I am currently running an HTC U11 with Android 8.0.0. The problem I am having is that whenever I have my phone on vibrate and I get a text from someone on my "Favorites" list, my phone completely stops playback of what I am listening to and I have to manually restart the music.
At first, I thought it was an issue with all of my contacts, but I noticed it only happens with my "Favorites". The media apps I use are: Pandora, IHeart Radio, Audible, MXPlayer, & Music Player by Innody. At first, I noticed it with HTC Messages, so I tried Android Messages and it still happens.
Before this phone, I had an HTC M9 and I did not have that issue. I checked with HTC and they couldn't tell me what would cause it. The only thing I can think is that it is caused by Android Oreo. Has anyone else experienced this? Please help!
Today i have updated my Google Pixel 2 XL from Android Nougat to Android Oreo and now as I will open the instagram and snapseed app they only will display a blank white screen on the startup and gradually after few second the app crash by itself. Previously they used to run smooth any idea how to fix it?

Alright guys, I have a simple question for ya.
I've recently flashed CyanogenMod 7 onto my Droid 1, and have been experiencing problems. They are as follows:
1) After a phone call, I either need to wait about 5 minutes to get my data(3G) signal back, or reboot because it never gets a data connection back
2) I can no longer multitask as efficiently, and example is if I'm listening to music (Pandora, Rhapsody, or the default music app) and I go home to do another activity (Facebook, Browser, Pulse, etc.) my music app stops playing and the ongoing notification disapears.
3) My Facebook contacts are no longer kept in sync. It still is the same version as the one I used on CM6.1.2. However, when I do select to sync, it adds the contacts, without pictures, and within an hour, they are removed.
4) My messaging app, although it is locked in my memory, still is being killed by my system.
I've tried restoring, fixing permissions, formatting data and system.
So: has anyone else that hs CM7 expierenced these problems and if you did, did you have a solution?
Thanks in advance

I have the problem with Pandora/slacker and mutlitasking... though I haven't had any of the other problems. I'm on nightly #25. No solutions yet.

1) Known issue with all GB based ROM's for the D1. Enable airplane mode a few times to force it to come back.
2) This is due to GB's aggressive memory management and the D1's lack of RAM. To help this you can do 1 of 3 things.
A. Use Swappa 2 to make a swap space on your SDcard.
B. Enable Compcache at about 18% or so.
C. Change ROM's and use Project Elite 5.0.2. They have a function that allows you to lock up to three apps into memory so they don't get auto-closed.
3) I don't use Facebook so I'm no help there.
4) Refer to number 2.
Good Luck!
Hello I'm having the same problem. My Droid seems to not be able to multitask very well anymore. My music player will often get killed by the system randomly, and it has made this phone pretty much useless for music.
I have tried enabling compcache and everything and it doesn't seem to help. I assume this is a problem of the Droid not having enough memory?

I'm running CM7 RC4 on my droid and the only "issue" I've noticed is that I get a low memory warning from time to time.
What kernel are you running?
Perhaps CM7 is too much for droid at stock speeds.
The 1.1Ghz low volt Chevy kernel does a very good job for me.
Do you have any issues with music playback? Maybe my kernel is the problem. The 1.2 ghz slayher kernel bootloops with my CM7 but it worked fine on CM6.

Sorry to post again, but I just wanted to update you guys. Flashed the Chevy 1.1 LV kernel and am still having the music player shut itself off when I try to open other apps. If I leave the music player up in the foreground, it will run all day with no issues. The minute it gets sent to the background, android seems to kill it within seconds.
The taskbar notification for the player will also disappear, but may reappear randomly as I continue to use my phone. It will appear briefly, then vanish. The music will never resume playback, however, until you physically hit the pause button and then the play button.
The sad part is that this behavior was exactly what my Motorola Q used to do. The thing had so little memory that the minute apps were released from the foreground view, they'd almost instantly close. I hate to say this but I think the only solution is a new phone... I guess android has finally outpaced the hardware on the OG Droid.
I've tried everything setting the music & media processes to 'always keep alive' using the little blue fish memory manager, but that doesn't seem to work. Like I said before, *something* is closing the music process very aggressively when it leaves the foreground and I'm not sure why it's doing this.

Yeah I'm using cm7 on my Droid incredible. Everything works fine except, sometimes applications such as messaging app and the default web browser restart randomly. I'm also using the kernel that came with it.

I've found that particular memory-hungry apps tend to cause the music player to close itself. The browser for one, almost guarantees that the music playback will stop. Last night I was able to keep the music playback going while switching between my SMS inbox and Tweetdeck. However certain other app combinations don't seem to work so well.
I've heard some talk of "bulletproofing" ... is this something that could help in my case? What does it do and how do I go about locking the music player in memory?

HI guys, I've got a real head scratcher and for the first time in every aspect of my life a Google search hasn't come through for me.
Background: Completely stock Nexus 4 - 4.4.3
Completely stock Nexus 7 - 4.4.2
No task or app killers
Problem: Out of no where when swiping away any music player (Google Play Music, Shuttle+, Wiizm etc) the music is killed!? The phone seems to be preventing the app from running in the background. I can hit the menu hot key and open other apps and music will play fine, it just won't continue playback if app is swiped.
I've also noticed I no longer get any form of mini player in the notification pull down or notification (headphones, play symbol etc) in the status bar if I have music playing unless I swipe the app but by which time the music has been killed!
What I've tried: Numerous searches, factory reset, uninstalling and reinstalling apps, cache and data clearing and even a different user account.
I could completely understand that something could corrupt or I could possibly hit a setting I've never seen before causing this to happen but surely a factory reset would resolve it? To add insult to injury my Nexus 7 has gone exactly the same way with the same symptoms. I don't even have the same music players on the individual device so I can't blame it on one particular app.
It driving me insane! Does anyone have any suggestions?
I experienced the second part of your problem, GPM no longer was in my notification bar+shade. Searched everywhere and your post was the only one I could find related to my problem. Curiously I checked the app under >Settings>Applications>Google Play Music and noticed that the notifications check box was not checked so I checked it and now everything is back to normal. Really can't remember if I turned it off myself or if upgrading to 4.4.3 had something to do with it.

have you tried using 3rd party music players?
Has anybody experienced this? I do not have power saver on. I'm on the August 1 security patch for the G930U.
Here is the scenario:
- Play a song through Spotify
- Click the home button (media controls will appear in notifications when Spotify is in the background)
- Pause or stop the song from notifications (don't hit the x in the media controls notification)
- Let phone sit with Spotify on pause
- Eventually, the media controls will disappear from the notifications as if the phone automatically shut down the Spotify app, which is fine.. but..
- Play a song through Spotify again
- Click the home button (media controls will NOT appear in notifications)
The only way to fix this for me has been to open up the recents app menu and swipe it away, then open Spotify again. Extremely annoying.
I have been having this issue as well on my LG G4, almost the exact same symptoms you have. I have tried all the re-installation tricks and factory resetting my phone. After some spotify forum digging I think other users have this issue and its an app based issue. I am 75% sure of it, but know one has had a definite answer to why this happens so I can't say for sure its the app and not Android
I'm having the same problem in a OnePlus X, thought it was something about latest Marshmallow update. I don't think this happen in Lollipop, but.. who knows.
I have had this issue from time to time, but have not noticed it in the last couple days since installing the latest beta (6.5.0.1795) from the XDA Labs app. It hasn't been long enough for me to say for sure it's fixed, but it's worth a shot. Try it out and report back on if you're able to reproduce the issue with the beta version.
Having the same problem on the S7. Latest stable version of Spotify and on latest software.
Hi,
has anyone of you experienced the issue with the Youtube (or instagram) apps when playing videos? That sound is totally out of sync of the video, which is really annoying. It happens to me when the phone is not rebooted for a longer period of time (ie 2weeks or so).
Running stock 1.1.13

Wipe the cache partition. Only other thing that works is to power it off for a few minutes and back on (not a restart).

I thought it was just me. It's very annoying. Probably happens 75% of the time.
Conflicting apps?
I've got the same issue with my HTC U11, clearing the data and cache hasn't helped me, nor did a turn off - turn on.
I have fixed sync issues with other apps by ruling out widgets and other apps with continued activity on the home screen or notification bar.
Background processes originating from a downloaded app could also be a cause.
Happy to get some help!
The problem: whenever I try to send a video through whatsapp, the progress bar loads to the middle. After that, the app stops working and freezes my phone. After a while of pressing the home button I eventually can leave the app. Re-opening the app leads to a white screen, but waiting 10 seconds or so I get the notification that the app is not responding and I can force it to close. Opening the app again it works again, loading the video from where it stopped and sending it normally.
This happens whenever I try to send a video on whatsapp. Should also mention that the video preview doesn't work well, crashing the app in the same way if I try to play it.
This was happening on a different rom I've had for a while. I recently switched to LineageOS 16 and some other problems I had disappeared, but this one remained.
Some more background
A year or so ago I installed a custom ROM on my oneplus one that I found on xda but can't seem to find anymore. The whole point of the ROM was to get android pie on the oneplus one, iirc. I don't recall having any problems at the start, but eventually I started having notifications that some android process related to media was crashing whenever I received an image on whatsapp (although I still recieved the image without any trouble and could send images normally). This also seemed to happen when some apps tried to downlaod images, which made me think the problem was related to the notification having the image's thumbnail. I also started having the problem with sending videos. A couple weeks ago I started getting random soft reboots, so I decided to check if there were any more recent ROMs.
So, two days ago I installed LineageOS 16 and so far I haven't had any other problem other than the whatsapp video sending thing. I haven't been able to find anyone else having this problem, but the fact that it persisted through a wipe and new ROM install means it probably isn't OS related.
Does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this?
Thanks in advance for the help!
