Anyone having "Audio Manager" probs with WM6.1 TouchFLO 2 roms? - Wing, P4350 General

I am, with this one:
[REV. 2/6/09 Ver.16 BURGUNDY] PDAviet TouchFLO Manila 2D WM6.1 V6.1.405.16
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475779
and now I cannot recall if I had similar problem on a similar ROM:
ROM HERALD WWE 6.1 BUILD 20764.1.4.3 (Blue clear)
but I read of someone having a similar problem yesterday -- in a Kaiser thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3296305#post3296305
PROBLEM: Using touchflo, slide to Music tab, click "play" arrow, and song plays for 10-15 seconds then stops. Then nothing is clickable within the audio manager interface. To get out of this, I have to slide to another Touchflo tab, then back to Music, and I can start up the song aian, but same thing will happen.
I tested by playing the same song in Windows Media Player and it was fine, played thru no problem. Meanwhile using Audio Manager, every song behaves this way.
ANyone else experiencing this?
(Note to Moderator: I have no idea if this is correct forum in which to post this. It seems correct since I'm experiencing it as a Herald ROM problem.)

If for any reason someone else had this problem with music files only playing 30-40 seconds in Audio Manager... I finally solved the problem, figured it out.
I had copied a bunch of music files from my Mac onto my Micro-SD card, assuming they would play just fine once the card was inserted inot my WING. Wrong.
At least for this scenario, of this hardware and software, you'll have to copy over music files via your PC -- whether thru Micro-SD card/reader or USB cable.

Media Panel refuses to play?

Hi,
Everything was working fine, but now, for some reason, the media panel won't play any music, it ust seems to be stuck on paused. The panel is still responsive and I can view pictures and contacts etc, it's just that the 'play' button doesn't work
Anyone else had this problem, or know what's causing it?
Also slightly less importantly, my Storage Card doesn't show in WMP (works fine in File Explorer though) - what have I missed haha
did you try to soft reset?
i had that on my tytnII i couldnt accces sd i put the sd in the pc it saw it and then i put the sd back in the phone it worked. maybe you could givi it a try
Yup, done all the soft-resets and reinsertions of memory cards that I can be bothered with haha.
Really rather not have to hard reset, just got it set up etc, who know's what'll cause it to do it again!!
There is a thread here or over at xperia1.net that explains it, but this issue is only if you've installed the Youtube cab from Manilla (as it changes the way it plays stufff).
So, if you've installed the Manilla Youtube cab, there is a fix out there somewhere (you need to basically edit the registry), but don't ask me where Been a few weeks sience I searched for it.
Your problem with non playing video seems similar to the one I had, please read below.
Possible problems with Pubba panel instaler V2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Norti,
Iv just done a hard reset back to default on my stock rom, but when I install Pubba panel installer v2, media files no longer play in Sony Media player or Windows media player, The James Bond stock video and other music files do not play.
Iv tried to eliminate all other causes by doing hard resets and testing each program, Touch 3D is great, but the panel installer seems to corrupt the media files and or there file association.
It seems media files in system ram prior to installing panel installer are not recognised and are treated as being corrupted.
If you have a cooked rom or you deleted all your stock rom video early on then you may have not noticed this error.
Please have a look at the panel installer as the ability to listen to music or listen to the radio while browsing is a very useful function.

Problem with Manila Audio Manager

Hi,
Lately i have been facing problem with audio manager in manila.
When i play a song in manila, the music is played for few seconds and then it stops. If i hit the play button again, it plays from the start and again stops in few seconds. But this problem is not happening in Windows media player.
I tried multiple memory cards and changed different ROMs. Also I have formatted the memory card withd efault allocation size and also checked the card for errors. Used the SD tune up as well. There seems to be no issue with the memory card.
Currently running Xanny's 2.0 Rom. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Amuthan
I'm getting the same thing. Tried playing some music earlier (think I have Maryone 23051) and the music stops playing after about 1.5 minutes. Pressing pause the first time does nothing then again and it starts laying from the beginning.
Can some one throw some light on this problem please?
It plays fine in Media Player so must be a problem with the new manilla or the newer 6.5 builds. I'll try another to see if there is any difference.
Also:
Tried searching but didn't find anything useful. One person said to format the card due to fragmentation but tracks that used to play fine when I first had the phone (and will be no more fragmented than they were then) now pause trying to play them
Same problem here. It started since I am using WM 6.5 (and at the same time Manilla 2.5).
I have not found any fix since.
Same problem. Checked and freshly formatted SanDisk 8gb SD card in my TD2. Mediaplayer works fine, manila player stopps playing after few seconds. In fact, it seems to be an manila problem...
It seems whenever an energy saving event occurs, the player stopps responding. if you - while playing a song - tapping the screen, checking mails, running the browser etc. the songs will play until you stop working. Perhaps it is a feature ;-)
Any usefull idea would be helpfull...
Greets!
I wouldn't say for definate that its a manila issue, as plenty of users, myself included use wm6.5 manila 2.5 roms and have not got this issue.
Leaving in the sd card in during flashing process has been known to currupt or damage the card which may be the reason for your failure.
Only solution I've heard of so far is to format your card. If you can, try backing up your card first

OK, if i remove the SD card, the player works fine using only internal memory.
BUT: the storage card is definitly not damaged (freshly formatted) and hasn't been in the device while flashing. Still works fine in a lot of other devices.
AND: as i tryed any other SD-Card here i got the same issue
AND!!! : why does the player plays every song from SD card without breaks while tapping the screen?
Any further idea? --- greetings
solution
Quite simple:
I found a folder in my music database with write protection enabled. I changed the folder and disabled write prtection and the manila audio player is working without any problems now!
Manila player needs wirite permissions to the audio folders, because manila puts a hidden coverart file in each audio folder: hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg
I think, in fact - this is a (small) bug in the latest 6.5 ROM build. Can't remember to this behavior in 6.1 build...
Hope it helps... Regards
Just been doing a bit of fiddling and realised TF3D doesn't like playing certain albums I have on my SD card. Tried formatting the card with different setttings copying across a couple of albums each time and had no luck. One time I only copied one album across and it played perfectly.
All the Lame encoded files seem to work fine but have some others which stop the music playing even if they are not being played themselves, but are just on the card.
The other thing I noticed when the music kept stopping was the updating spinny arrows kept appearing while the music started playing. Not doing it now I've copied over just lame encoded files and all is playing well.

Problem with audiomanager_eng.exe

everytime i try to go to the music section the whole mp3 app crashes with an error massage?!

I can though surf on the internet!
i got the audiomanager_eng.exe error fixed, but still i cannot connect to hotmail, weather or twitter, while i can connect to facebook, or youtube. wtf?

you are not allowed to copy music from pc to your sd card, but you have to put your sd card into the hd2, connect it to the pc and after that copy your music on it
The audiomanager does have issues with some tracks. Why im not sure yet. My blackstone with manila 2.5 also had an issue, but it didnt crash it, it just wouldnt advance through the tracks and slowed the player to a complete crawl. Im guessing its the way they were encoded or something wrong with the tagging that the manila player doesnt like.
I re-encoded the tracks and let the phone create its own album art, that seemed to work ok.

first it seemed so.. but it crashed again :S but now i know that it's the fault of some mp3 files... i copied only 30 of 56 albums and its working fine... so i have to copy 10 by 10 to see which mp3 file is causing it... sry for the wrong info.
I just noticed that if you press the update album art button in top right corner it starts working again and plays 10 or 15 seconds more of the track and then crashes

I used MP3val to fix my collection, googled it after someone mentioned it as a possible solution. Did the trick for me, it's working now.
Complete steps in my case:
- format SD from HD2
- sync albums from WMPlayer by ActiveSync for correct folderstructure
- ran MP3val on Music folder on SD, fixed errors
Hope it helps!

Yep your right! Iv had to resort to putting the device in drive mode when plugged into pc and do a soft reset after each album, but the album art and songs are sure worth it

Will give it a go if I come across the issue after this method
Hi --
I seem to have the same issue. Audio Manager crashes on certain songs/albums and restarts Sense automatically. Soft reset doesn't change this. I have also edited all tags to make sure there are no comments/genres etc using mp3tag. Still music player will crash on the same song/album. WM plays just fine. Has anyone played with registry settings to fix this bug in HTC audio manager?
HD 2 Audio Manager and HTC messaging
I was so happy to have been able to purchase this device while on a recent trip to Hong Kong. To my surprise, I was unable to create text messages. I could see the incoming texts but when I hit the reply icon, the screen went "black". I could turn on the keyboard, but could not see anything in the black space above.
At the same time, there was a problem with the HTC music function. With the exception of the two sample songs, nothing else would play. The Windows Media Player worked but was a far cry from what I thought I was getting via HTC Sense technology.
I then erased the audio manager and to my surprise, the HTC Messaging worked flawlessly. When I reinstalled the audiomanager, the problem returned to the HTC Messaging.
Can you help sort this out?
Thanks for anything you can provide.
audiomanager or sms
Got the same problem here... I Installed the audiomanager (it does fix the audiomanager problem)...but I can't send sms cause the screen went black blank....
I tried remove the audiomanager application...and the sms function back to normal...but at the same time...the music player come with audiomanager problem again...
It's like we can only choose one of them...normal sms or fixed audiomanager.(it's really pissed me off)

My situation:
-music player from Manila 2.5 worked for several month and suddenly came to the same problem as we talking about here.
-Downloaded mp3val and scanned .mp3 in my storage card, then fixed them.
-After that, everything works fine like before.
Well I ca't believe that after all this time it's fixed. I suffered this problem with my diamond and thought that it would be resolved in the hd2, only to find after loading alll my music the problem was back, I assumed it was one of the albums that was drm causing it so removed it and deleted the .vol. Problem was still there then I removed all wma and aac files still there and then I found this post scanned and fixed with mp3val and all is well.
Bloody great thanks for the tip.
had the same problem
i had the same problem and fixed it with syncing with my pc

Manila 2.5 Music player stopping

Hi
I'm hoping someone can help me with this problem that seems to be just my HD. Maybe it's my music, but that's what I'm here to find out.
Whilst playing a song in the music tab, after a minute or so it just stops, the play/pause button is playing yet there is no sound and the progress bar doesn't move. It will only resume again after I hit pause and then play and even then the song just begins again. This happens no matter what ROM I am using. Miri, Dutty and PhamQuang roms all do the same.
Thanks for looking, I hope you can help.
Hi,
Also facing this problems, after about 43 seconds the music just stops.
It also stops when you press the standby button.
Please help!
It's supposed to stop when you press the power button, although there is a registry tweak to prevent this from happening.
TF3D2.5 has problems playing my non-Lame encoded MP3s and also stops other mp3s playing properly.
Could using wma music help? I will test this out and get back with the results
solution works for me
Chrissssssss said:
Was doing some fiddling last night (as mentioned in another thread) and it, for me at least, appeared to be a problem with the program a mp3 was compressed with.
All my lame mp3s work fine but as soon as I copy one which dbpoweramp says was compressed with FHG all mp3s stop after a few seconds.

Thanks a lot,
It works for me: I reencode all my music with dbpoweramp with lame codec and I don't have anymore the issue.
Great thanks.
Yay. Glad it's working now Pain having to re-encode mp3s though.
can someone please post the registry tweak to prevent music player to stop in standby!thanks!
Hey Guys, i had the same problem.
I just used resco explorer. Selected all files in the MP3 folder and removed the readonly. It worked like a charm. Try this out and lemme know if it worked.
Good Luck!

if this works you will be my hero of the day
edit: the read only is checked clear after tapping it gets empty but then after reopen its checked clear again?!
what does this mean?
-> music still stops playing
would be grateful for further help
Hello,
I too have been experiencing my 8Gb of music stopping when used with WM6.5 ROMs. Ripped using Windows media 11 (not Lame encoded).
I noticed that when starting to play an MP3, in the top left corner of the screen, next to the CD icon, was a spinning disc. When this disc stopped spinning, the music stopped playing.
My solution was switch on wifi (connected). Press Menu. Press Update Album Art. Press Current Song. The top right of the screen says Link to Gracenote. After some seconds an album cover will appear and the spinning disc will stop. I only needed to update one album and the problem stopped on all MP3s.
Nothing to lose,,,give it a try.
PS. I use a little mortscript to modify the following registry entry that allows me to turn off the screen without headphones connected.
HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Headset = 1

Mate,
I forgot to mention the other part.
Ok try the below steps.
1) Copy all MP3 files into ONE folder. You should not use multiple folders.
2) Now in resco explorer, go to MENU -> EDIT -> SELECT ALL
3) Once all MP3 songs are selected, again go to MENU -> FILE -> PROPERTIES.
4) Now disable all checkboxes like read only, archive, hidden and system files.
5) Then select DONE.
Now you should be good to go.
Note: DO NOT SELECT THE MP3 FOLDER TO MODIFY THE READ ONLY. Even if you uncheck the read only attribute for the folder, it will show as read only if you look at the properties again. Change the attribute of MP3 files and it should work.
I use a 16GB class 6 SD card and it works great for me.
I had already opened a thread to discuss the issue.
You might find more info here as well.

Sorry to hear that it dint work. I completely understand your frustration coz i was one few days back.
Did u check the attributes of the MP3 files again after removing read only?
Do you face this problem in other audio players like, WMP, S2P as well? I never faced problems in other players.
Since the previous solution dint work, lets try something else.
Remove all ur MP3s in the folder. Just add 10 MP3s first. Try the steps I had given in my previous post. now after removing the read only for the 10 MP3s, try playing them to see if it works. If it does add another 20 MP3s.
You can also try to remove the read only by connecting ur SD card to a computer.
If you still face issues, format your SD card with default allocation size. Try loading the files into one folder and remove the read only attribute for all the files.
I am no techie guy.. if you ask me how it worked for me, i am absolutely clueless.
first thanks for your help!
in windows media player all the files worked without errors.
just copied some mp3 files from sd card to my device and even then with the manila player they stop!
going to flash a new rom and sd is getting formated right now.
because the touch hd is my mp3 device this is really annoying!
no problems before flashing manila 2.5...

Ok. If it does not work even from phone memory, then something else is wrong.
Try energy rom pheonix with Sense 2.1. I think that might work..
flashed to xanny evo 1.5b and what should i say
transfered a fex album with wmp ( fast disc tranfser mode) and tried to listen - stopped after seconds.
then I put these mp3´s ( about 40 not sure) in one folder and put wifi on and updated all album arts.
after that the circle next to music went away and it works so far !
hell yeah
my joy didnot last very long - going to through my hd out of the window and get a motorola milestone just dreaming
Same issue fixed for me
Hi guys,
I had the same or similar issue with the Sense 2.5 included in my ROM.
I my case the issue was caused by the all versions of Manila 2.1 and 2.5 that created files named "AlbumArt_{937436F0-A712-496E-B610-48576D832D91}_Large.jpg" or "HTCAlbumArt.jpg" in the subfolders. I have of folder for each artist and different folders for each of their albums.
To resolve the issue I've only removed all the *.jpg file except the folder.jpg (256*256 pixels). After a soft reset, the HTC Audio Player recreated his own *.jpg named ~HTC_AlbumTitle.jpg. The only thing I don't know is if the name is linked with Sense 2.5 or Dutty's ROM.
I hope It will help someone else.
Re-encoding in LAME worked a treat for me, Thanks a bunch
I flashed this new rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=603741
This has the new dump from Leo 2.01 and a new Sense, not sure the number, but I am able to play any of my audio files with no other manipluation. Not sure is this is the this particular Sense Build, or Leo dump, or the cook. But I no longer have the stopping after a few seconds issue.

Music player says "no"

Hey felas
To start with, I'm a fresh virgin in WM and just bought the Leo, flashed the ROM with 1.48.405.2 WWE and it's all a dream except ..
I go to the music player tab, play a song and in 5 to 20 seconds the song just stops playing. It doesnt pause it, just halts and when i hit the "play" button twice it plays from the start. Unusable..
I am using an 8GB SD, tried formatting it twice ( through win7 and WM ), tried uploading the songs via Media Player and by just copying them into the folder. Its all the same. Soft reseted the thing a gazzilion times and it still doesnt like me.
I searched trough the forum but didnt stumble upon anyone with a similar issue.
I give up. help?
Thanks in advance
That's frustrating. What's the format of your music files? And what's the bitrate? How do you have organized your music files. In seperate folders or in one large folder?
Just curious.
BTW, does this problem occurs constantly. I mean, if you leave your phone alone for a couple of hours and try to play the same music file then, does the same problem occur again, or is it just after an update of your music library.
appelflap this problem has been noticed by others. You might want to check out this thread which documents several solutions.
Slow Music player
try to erase the Music maps inthe sd card and create a new one,put music inthis first,more less like 200 tracks and start again the player,if this work put more music
Thank you for the assistance guys The problem were the mp3's I guess.. or the dumb HTC developer that coded the Media Player. Anyhow, I reckon i might like this forum after all.
Happy holidays
The solution ?
Hi. I experienced the same problem with my music player. I noticed that EVERYTIME I connect my LEO with a computer, whether or not I add new music files, the music player would just "stuck", find no music files, display the message "No music found" when I turn it to landscape.
Found the answer on another forum. Actually, "our" music player is unable to read some MP3 ID3 TAG... It seems to be only reliable with ID3 version 2.4 UTF-8 type tags. So what you should do is "simply" convert all mp3 files on your storage card to the appropriate ID3 format. It's not very long since you don't have to recompress the audio files! You can use mp3Tag to apply change to all your mp3s at once. More info in this threat => http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=42474
One definitive solution would be to convert ID3 tags of all your music collection! It would take quite some time... unless somebody find the way to fix this with a magic cab?
This just adds to the very long list of issues of this "wonderful" piece of technology. Thanks who?
