stuttering ringtone during incoming calls - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi,
I remember reading about this a while back but cant seem to be able to find it anymore.
When I get incoming calls my ringtone sounds like it is stuttering sometimes. It is not happening all the time just most of the time?
Has anyone heard of a the cause/solution to this problem?
Thanks.
Edit:
Just like to add that I am only using the standard "old phone" ringtone and it happens whether or not vibrate was turned on or off. (in case the vibration was making speaker terminals lose connection)

I get the same, so you are not alone.
Fish

It's due to the system WAKING UP out of the sleep mode

I have the same but it doesn't seem to cause any real problems.

Not really due to the waking up from sleep mode actually in my case.
I went to sounds and notifications and chose "old phone" ringtone and it plays a test sound when you choose it. It stuttered during this time too.
so its probably some sort of software conflict maybe???

I have to agree with this point. I never had stuttering of ringtones on my XDA Exec. I use the old phone ring tone sound.

ive found recently over the past couple of days that since i've resorted to the standard phone skin by getting rid of the "bubble" default skin, I get no skipping or stuttering on any incoming calls. Its been working fine for a couple of days now even after a few soft-resets. I suggest sum1 try it to confirm.

its a little hard to say whether the skin would have done it or not since my problem is intermittent. After a soft reset the problem goes away and then comes back once in a while.

I have GB-Soft's Tweak but I have always no idea what is this Audio Priority for? Mine is positioned at "110". What should it be?

me having stuttering ringtone too.
As i using mp3 for ringtone.
I tried lowering the bitrate & reducing the size of the mp3.
it somehow helps but i still have the stuttering once in a while.
could it be cpu speed problem?
can anyone overclock the cpu and try to see if the stuttering still exist?

Wizard doesn't ring, please help

I have a problem: when I put my mda on "loud" the phone doens't make sound when someone calls me. Only the light goes on. In the settings "Ring type" is vibrate and ring, but still no sound. Tried also just ring but nothing happened, only light goes on. Even tried different ringtones, but that's not helping either. I have the WM5SE rom, but don't think that the rom gives me this problem, because I had this on other roms also, like the NBD series. When I first install the rom, everything is working fine, but after a few weeks it starts giving me this problems. I switch a lot between ring and vibrate, could this be the problem? Does anybody please no how to fix this?? Ferreira maybe you have some experience with this? Anyway I hope someone can help me, because I missed a lot of calls because of this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Check your radio version. I think the best is 2.19
And when you said it doesnt ring, does it vibrate (i.e. does the phone knows it has call comming in, and do something to respond to it).. or just a speaker problem?
Try hard reset. If it doesnt work then it may be an issue of headphones slot jam.

I have radio 2.69.11, ring type is "vibrate and ring". It does vibrate, but it doesn't ring. You know what the problem is?

It is probably (as vlodeck mentioned) headphone jack jammed. If thats the case, you should not be having any sound from the phone at all (i.e. no music, no notification sound, no SMS sound). I had this problem before, and I do not want to make this sound dirty, but you can fix the problem by poking it Poke your headphone in and out in and out

headphone works, music works also, even without headphone, so that's not it. I tried flashed radio 2.19.11 T-Mobile NL. No I just have to find someone who can call me to test it. will post the result.
hmm.. that is iiiinnnnnttttteeerreeessstting. from what it seems, chances are probably the ring tone you are using is somewhat, not compatible. Tryign changing it to a default ring tone, WAV, shorter one, that is not in the storage card.

I tried this also, it didn't work. I think I'm going crazy. If I change the ringtone and test it by pressing "play", then it works! But if someone calls me, I can only see that someone is calling, but I hear nothing! And if it's on "vibrate and ring", then it vibrates but doesn't ring! Isn't this crazy??
this may sound crazy, but just to check, is your volumn up? push your volumn slider up? make sure both the volumn controls are up.

I found the problem! thanks to you of course. I did this before but now I no the volume slider is broken. only the right volume was up and the left was all the way down. So that caused the phone not ringing. Anyway, I just have to do this with my finger/stylus in the future, so thank you for your help!
CASE CLOSED.
Its interesting but in WM5 i had all sorts of problems once where my music would not play at all. I had all the volumes turned up and all that and it still wouldnt play, then I turned the volume on Windows Media Player down to 95% and it started playing again, and i turned it back up to 100% and it was fine. Little minor glitch me thinks

tytn problem with ringtone

To make him work again i need to reset or off - on... i reinstall windows but i have same problem.

Does the phone actually change the settings OR does it keep the correct settings but just stops ringing?

I am trying to decide if this is a software or a hardware fault.
A common problem is the rear speaker (used for the phone ring) becoming loose. It's fairly easy to push the connector firmly back in place, but perhaps you should test this first.
One way to test this would be to play some sound files (MP3s etc, at a time when the phone is refusing to ring. If you get no sound or poor quality sound, then I think the connector is loose.
Other problems like the phone going to default ringtonemay or may not be related to the problem. First, do the above test to be sure it's is or isn't a hardware fault.

Well that probably removes the possibility of a hardware fault.
I'm afraid I cannot think what else to try.
I assume it does this with all ringtones you choose?

Yes... i frequently change my ringtones
One thing left to try that I can think of is to flash a different ROM. Not the easiest thing to do though if you have never done it before.
Mike
your problem may just be the phone itself. My phone also quit ringing, and I found out that it would only play certain ringtones, even though all my ringtones were stock and came with the phone. For some reason, certain ringtones just quit working. By using the standard default ringtone, the phone works just fine.

I noticed that when I was still using a stock ROM, im currently using the stock tweaked which is found on the development section, its like a static or white noise on or before a sound is played via the headphone jack. Its pretty annoying, my galaxy note also had the same problem.

leaking? i think that is a feature of the phone to notify you of any incoming sms/phonecalls/emails/etc..
this is NOT a bug, and of course if you put your phone into silent mode this will not happen
Didnt he mean the static sound that we can some times hear via the headset out when say tapping something on the screen or even by just browsing the gallery coz thats how I understood it lol!

hmm well you try it yourself if this not only happen in my tab your's will also happen so basically when you put the headset in all sound supposed to be in your headset... but in my case the notification sound will not play on headset but instead leaking out with the sound of music that i played (in my scenario i put headset to listen music )

Why are ringtones quiet when the phone starts ringing?

Whenever I get a call, the ringtone is very quiet for a couple of seconds before suddenly playing at full volume. Increasing volume is disabled, so does anyone know why it does this?

Try checking and unchecking increasing volume a few times in the settings then. If that does not fix the problem you might be able to try wiping all data to do with the phone and sound settings in Settings > Applications..
It was doing it even when new out of the box though, and also when I first installed XXUAMDN, so it's definitely not an app issue or anything. Tried toggling the increasing volume toggle several times too.

you cant, but i dont know if you can when it is rooted
I'm rooted, so if anyone knows then feel free to share!
This S4 is my first Android phone and i was wandering this also as my phone has always done that for about the first 2 seconds which ive found very strange, never found a way to change it either.
I've had several android phones, but this is the first to do it.
My previous note 2 and the wife's s3 don't he same (as well as my s4).
Unsure if it's an android thing or Samsung thing.
I think it's so the phone ringing when your not expecting it doesn't frighten the living daylights out of you!

It's definitely not an android thing, otherwise my previous 3 phones would have all done it too and I'd already have had a 5 year head start on learning how to stop it!
Right, just found it's a Samsung and LG thing. Seems you can edit the secphone.apk if you're rooted, or alternatively you can download an app called "disable increased ring" from the play store. With this app you get a persistent notification that it's running, but then if you go into application manager you can disable notifications for it. I tried the app and it works, no root access or custom rom needed.
Flash Omega or Wanamlite ROMs, they have this "feature" disabled

Thanks, just found an app that disables it anyway. What a stupid "feature".
I have this exact same problem on my s3 mini. So it's deffo a Samsung thing... Thanks for posting different solutions
"Disable Increasing Ring" app works fine so far.

Notification alert causes audio and video to pause

I purchased the Note 8.0 last week and like everything about it. However, there is one annoying issue that I have yet to resolve. I get allot of notification alerts and when watching a video or listening to music, the incoming notification temporarily pauses the video and interrupts the audio. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, how did you resolve?

This happens with my Samsung Galaxy phone too. My workaround was to turn off most notifications. Also, I use a sound profile app to turn off the notification sounds during the work day, and I don't notice that the muted notifications affect anything I am listening to. I don't know how else to "fix" it, but perhaps someone else will have a good idea.

Have you given the blocking mode a try, it has an option to supress notifications as well as calls and stuff.

I did try the blocking mode, but it bugs me that there's an icon showing that the blocking mode is on. I haven't found a way to turn that off. (Dang, I'm picky.)
