Hello,
I have read some posts about that, but I cannot find them right now...
I have problems sometime when playing music (with headset). As long as the screen is on, no problem. When the phone is in sleep mode (screen off), I have some short break... Or the player just stop. It seems the issues is just like if I remove the headset cable.
I have tried Soft and Hard Reset, I have tried two different Headset, I have tried with TouchFlo player Tab, Windows Media Player and Core Player... Some time it works for one hour with no problem, sometime it just play ugly one song and just stop.
Did any one has the same issue? Find a way to suppress this? Maybe just a registry tweak to disable the "Pause on cable off" ?
I have same issue and make ticket to HTC - but they answer is to perform Soft Reset. They can't reproduce this problem.
I'm having the same problem; short random breaks in the music. Did eith er of you install SRSwow by any chance? I may try uninstalling that and see if the issue continues.
Having exactly the same problem, short breaks in the music, and if i lock the screen, the music stops at the end of the song and doesnt go onto the next track

I don't installed SRSwow. My last try was a Hard-Reset, and just after first start, I played music... And get the problem. My next try will be to use the #### headset I got with my Leo. But I have to go back home for this.
I had the problem using the Leo headset
All of you have a lock screen with "password"? (I have one due to my exchange policies). I tested a trick yesterday: I manually lock the phone before putting it into sleepmode... and no problem (two times).
My problem hasn't re-occurred since i did a soft reset
Maybe the short breaks have something to do with the update function of the music player? Once in a while, don't know when, but definitely when you use the music player the first couple of times, the player does some heavy working in the background. (indicated by the little merry-go-round in the left upper corner).
Anyway the player isn't any good when you have 100+ albums. Browsing through that many albums is a disaster (no scroll bar, no search function). Also the artist are grouped by "performing artist" and not by "album artist", a tear-breaker when you have many compilation albums. Also, and every player for the WM platform (in contrast to the ipod players) have this weird functionality, albums are sorted by album tiltle and not by artist. Who in heavens name knows all his/her album titles by heart? When a album pops in mind you want to play, you think in terms of .... (that wonderfull) album by Fleetwood Mac for example and /not/ in terms of that album, called "Rumours", by ...... (that crazy rockgroup... what's its name).
But that's "appelflap" talking.
I believe this is a very old problem witch occurs on allot of HTC phones.
I've had this problem on one of my 3 previous HTC phones, cant remember witch one, because I bought a decent mp3 player a long time ago
It's a damn shame really that HTC can't fix this thing.
I have this problem too, but also with the audio cable running to my car stereo. As long as the screen is on, there is no problem. If I turn it off, the music starts breaking up once in a while.
use Nitrogen people! been using that on my HD2 and have had zero music playing pauses / breaks / etc, even with screen off, regardless of whether headset is on or not.
Have a similar problem with another winmo phone. The problem was with listening music on microsdhc (i.e. larger than 2gb microsd card) card.
It seems the device just shut down card reader on standby (Screen Off), so when your buffer is empty (end of the song, as a rule) there is no music to play and it just stops.
And no, I dunno the reason for such behavior. And there was no problem with 2gb or less microsd cards.
P.S. I'll test my leo with 16gb card tonight (just bout it), to see, if there a similar problem.
I have the problem problem with my 8Gb card. I could try with the 2Gb too. This should be the reason for the "stop playing at the end of the track".
But for the playing "short break", I have another thinking: Nitrogen don't have the problem. The most important differences between Nitrogen and WMP/TF3D player is the rule that make the music to pause when removing the headset. And this really "sounds" like a problem of headset, as if the phone "loose" the headset connection. Try to remove and quickly re-plug your phone; you'll se the same issue.
Back to my first question: is there a way to disable the pause on unplug head-set? Maybe in the registry?
I still don't have HD2, but I have these problems on X1.
Nitrogen did not help, in fact it can't play some MP3 at all. It either skips it or crashes completely. But otherwise it is the best player I know.
What does work however, is to use Core player and set 'higher priority during music playback'. Also I tried to change priority to higher using task manager for Nitrogen and it seemed to help, but I did not test it that much to be sure.
I sent this to nitrogen bug tracker (suggestion that it should allow higher priority) but after month there is no reaction.
I fixed my issues by just cleaning up my music and making sure I didn't have more than 30 songs per folder(had ~1000 in one and it made the music player lag like crazy).
i've the problem, but only when receiving or doing a call. after that the lags start ... this is annoying -.-
Having issues as well with HTC music player, it stutters, there are sound artifacts where the song skips, and sometimes a song will stop playing after 2 seconds.
This is so annoying im prepared to send it back. I reformated my 8gb class 6 card, but it´s still the same.
Using another player is fine, no issues. This is classical HTC issues, they need to get the crap together and fix issues like this before the release. Had the same issues with my diamond until they fixed it.
hi everybody! I had the same problem but not in the sleep mode. My htc music will have little break when my Opera loading something.
It is had any way to fix it? thank you
In the settings for the display light there is also an option for "turn off my device if inactive in:" - I disabled that option and my music player (Pocket Player) is now running without problems.
Hi,
while listening to music i found few software glitches.
1. Audio booster if you save preset in an existing name, it is not saving the current EQ setting instead it retains the previous preset EQ setting in memory but on screen it shows the new EQ settings, if you goto some other preset and and come back to saved one you could see on screen that your prev EQ settings of that preset is retained and not the new one.
2. Listen to music using headphone with Audio Booster enabled, If you attend a phone call and disconnect the call you will notice while resuming the music audio booster won't be really enabled, when you goto audio booster again you can feel the change in sound, looks like every time when we attend a call and resume music audio booster had to be re-enabled.
Do any one have similar issue?
~SwK
Yes, I have them both. Actually there is no solution for them on the forum, from what I've searched.
I got those problems too and also that its shutting down randomly and between songs, which is very annoying.
I have mailed HTC about it and the reply i got was that they've informed the developers about the problem...
Similar issue, I mail them too.
audio booster
have we heard anything on this bug? Mine just started shutting off randomly, Appreciate knowing if we have found out anything,,thanks,,Quig
Needs fixing, for SO long!
Audio Booster has always had this problem (remembering from my HTC Touch HD) where as soon as it's been closed or moved off screen, without music being played, it will close/disable.
I usually run it and minimize it, so it never goes off, but of course, as soon as you remove your earphones, it turns off/disables. Decided to never use again until a fix is implemented and/or it just picks up that earphones are connected and to stay enabled until it is manually close or earphones removed.
booster
I also had hd, but had no problems with booster on it, strange? HD2 shuts of randomly, just listening, not running or doing anything else? I guess just keep turning it back on.
I have HD2 and the same problem brought me here to discuss about it but it's unfortunate not to find a solution or at least a germicide to this bug!!!
Booster
Hope the techs find way to fix it. Or htc does update to fix? I really enjoy using music player, but audio boost continues to shut off randomly.
same
same here....but no one could make any solution for that...dont know why they made this booster....goddamn...
Audio booster bug
I would really like to find fix for booster shutting off. I would be willing to donate for someones time if they fix it. I'm Techdumb, so no chance I'll find anything,..LMK,,Quig
*Bump*
Does anybody know if the latest ROMs (TMo US?) still have this bug?
on a side note, I still wish HTC would fix the problem with AAC files not being listed in track order; a bug which has been present for YEARS now (On Touch Pro, Touch 3G etc....).
All in all little things like this prevent HTC phones from being the 'all-in-one' device I crave. Shame. Perhaps I should stop buying them ; )
HD2 audio booster
I have tried several ROMs ,TMOUS 2.10,does not have this problem.
now i am on O2 uk ROM 1.72,still same problem.
I have even applied Music patch released by HTC on their web site. Now booster shutdown with every change of Song.i have to manually switch it on for every song.really very annoying.i cannot go back to TMOUS because i want internt sharing options which is not there on TMOUS 2.10.
Any help.please .Thank you.
edit:SRS sound may help.

THEY'RE ALWAYS SAYING HERE "READ FIRST BEFORE POSTING", have you been to tips and tweaks section?? theres a first solution and then theres a reg tweak solution
Booster fix? not!
Niether "fix" worked for me. I'm serious I will donate 100.00 towards someone fixing audio booster! Not much, but maybe more will donate,,, Please, love my tunes, WITH audio booster!
audio booster update
I read on some forum,person had sort of work around for booster shutting off. Well his idea was just unplugging earphones, & putting back, it reset audio booster, no need to go in & turn back on. Well, I tried just pulling plug out until I lost 1 channel, then slowly push it back in until I get second channel back. Audio booster has stayed on steady for my 15 song playlist!!!! plug is not in all the way! But enough to get both channels,& audio booster!! So far working!! For me, it's great!!! Please lmk,,,,Quig

Just use a custom ROM with 2.1x base and Audio Booster will be fine
there is a solution ,use hd2 tweak
Hd2 tweaks
I've tried bsb tweaks,had a problem, what is hd2 tweak you speak of? Unplugging alittle is working right now? thanks for any help,,,,Quig
BSB tweak and hd2 tweak dont work for me neither does pressing X instead of done its bloody annoying because the sound quality with audio booster and srs is excellent but frustrating to have to re enable it after every song!
This may sound stupid, but I want to lock the phone so I don't pump the keys in my pocket, doesn't matter which player I use (core, tcpmp, wmp, htc sense) whenever I lock the phone (press hangup so the screen goes black) the music stops cause the media player shuts down
is there anyway to make a program immune from being shut down by the lock function, because it's really annoying... sorry if this is answered somewhere else, I searched and couldn't find what I was looking for.
SOmething I've also noticed is that whilst it is locked I can still adjust the volume (energy rom mar11 2010 cookie monster)
and pressing the hang up key whilst its locked shuts off the music also...
I have a $20 sansa mp3 player that kicks the hd2's arse for music play back... which is really disappointing, I mean I know its not really a dedicated mp3 player,
but its kind of sad that my $1000 smart phone can't play a few mp3's without shuddering to a hault
The very same microsdhc 16gb class 2 card shifted from my hd2 to my sansa c250v2 running rockbox so its the exact same mp3 and wma files that play perfectly on the sansa that are buggering up on the hd2
I have disabled power management on my sd card as a suggestion from another thread as well.

With normal setup this cant be. At least the player in sense tab plays continuosly even when u turn of the screen.
If you cannot find a solution i could know a workaround. Just use the Nitrogen Player. It has a special button for turning the screen off while the music keeps playing.
But i just tried it in my hd2. The music also keeps playing with my windows media player.
So it is a bit strange it stops in every player on your device
And to compare your low budget mp3 player with the hd2 is kinda weird.
The sound quality through the headset is great and full of bass AND fully customizable.
Maybe you tweaked your device way too much as there seems to be more than one prob in there (changing volume while locked, ...)

this looked very promising, installed, soft reset, 3 times, no luck, song still stops, although I did note that it stopped and started a few times and then just gave up, then when I went back into the player after unlocking, there was no sound still but the time for the song was still ticking along.
this happens on 2 other hd2's at my work, and my old hd2 before I returned it for other warranty issues, both with the stock telstra rom and with other cooked roms, exact same problem of the music disappearing when locked..
update S2U2 and S2P work AWESOME and dont wipe out the sound... its kinda uggo and I lose a lot of functionality of the old unlock slider, but now I have flawless music playback, so.... thats good... a shame I can't have both
of course.... just to make a liar out of me.... coreplayer now runs while the phone is locked....um so... something I did either the reg tweak or installing and then removing s2u2 or installing s2p has fixed this issue... coreplayer now plays, whilst the phone is locked with the regular htc sense lock screen after pressing hang up....
so YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
I hit the windows key and then the lock link at the bottom. Takes a minute for the screen to turn off that way, but better than leaving it on the whole time.
If you press the hangup button to lock it, the phone goes into standby and all apps are suspended.
You really have a problem with your ROM, some program you use or whatever. Normally the Sense music player, WMP, S2P, PocketPlayer, Kinoma,... all continue to play when hitting the power key. Coreplayer and TCPCM don't, and that gets fixed by the cab I linked above.
I can do that with the FM radio , coreplayer and windows media player .
I just lock the phone , but the music keeps playing , even for more than 10 hours ( When I sleep , I keep the headsets on and the music on , and lock the phone put in the case and in the drawer and still can listen to music. )
Edit : Also the sense music works

doesn't this also disable "cpu sleep" everytime youpress power button making the device drain a lot of battery even during standby? I may be wrong, but that's how I understand the registry setting in that cab

I can lock my screen by the hang up button? And no, my music does not stop. On stock WWE -Rom. But, I had this issue on my Blackstone

You've read my threads enough to know it's the first thing I checked, and I'd have complained instead of saying thanks if I had seen an issue with that
From what I understand it will prevent standby as long as the WAV1 interface is in use (i.e sound is playing).
I always lock my device using the Hang Up button .. does this effect anything ?
Nope, it's normal. But with Coreplayer if you do that without the hack above it stops playing music.

d'oh, it could be useful whenever I want to lock on mortplayer, if I press power button it will also stop playback. Let's try that.
EDIT: So far so good, testing mA suction while playing on standby and while on "normal" standby.
EDIT2: So far NOT so good, locking with power button on mortplaying in playback, once stopped playback, and just now locked the whole phone on the lock screen. Uninstalling
yeah so that cab didn't help core player on my hd2 using the mar11 energy rom and 2.08 radio
but just playing musik with the s2p player, when you hit the hangup key it doesnt actually lock the phone traditionally, it kind of over rides the hangup keys function and just does a screen blank out controlled within s2p, which isn't too bad because the music keeps playing, but yeah, I definitely can't get coreplayer to stay playing with or without this cab installed.
Just a shame s2p doesnt have an equaliser or bass control or any advanced audio functions.

way to go, moron, your little registry crack somehow made all the speakerphone sounds (ringtones, music, notifications) come out of my EARPIECE!
check your crap .cabs before you post them,, thinking you kno what you're doing.
and if this wasn't your creation, pass the massage on to the maker, sorry. =] but seriously guys, be smart. check your registry edits a few times over before telling other people to do it, as a result to someone's stupidity, i now have to reflash the rom, because i have no clue what registry that little POS .cab file edited. D:
god, some people, i swear.
i had the same issue and posted in the energy rom thread. A great guy there advised to disable the cookie lock screen and revert to the normal one. That resolved my issue so i am sure it will do likewise for you.
This update for HTC HD2 HTC Sense enhances the stability of the music application so your enjoyment of your music is no longer interrupted by the player behaving unexpectedly.
Installation Instructions:
Note: This update is only applicable to ROM versions equal to 1.73.xxx.x, or lower.
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=938&news_id=637
Installed without problems. I had very few 'stability' issues with the music app to begin with, so it'll be a while before I'll be able to tell if it improved anything.
And yeah, dammit, you beat me by a minute!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=671207
what changes does this actually make, htc are always really vague saying what a patch does. does it by anychance fix the library reloading everytime
From time to time playback freezes for a few seconds - pretty rare but annoying - maybe this will be fixed.
Or maybe this is how HTC describe the annoying problem where Audio Booster does not automatically kick in when starting playback for the 1st time after a reboot?
the music player is always lag. unlike iphone player which is alot better
That's true, Music Player lags a lot... mainly after a couple of days without switching off the telephone and after an intense use of the player (2-3 hours)..
I hope this hotfix will solve those problems...
Does anyone has any feedback about it?
I wonder if there will be a hotfix for TMOUS, It lags so much i just dont even use that tab anymore

Can someone post this cab, it dissapeared from HTC support site
using artemis v9 rom. 16gb card. much faster near instant load and scan of 12mb of music takes 20 secs from several minutes.
Whoooha - /WIN.
No lag (stop in music after every 10 seconds) any longer when putting device into sleep pushing power off once.
Old Work-around to push and hold power off and let it go to sleep from the screen with 'shut down' menu is now absolete.
After this fix just find your music, push play and one-hit power off to let it go to sleep and music plays perfectly.
Super upgrade - waaaaay to late - but glad its fixed!

Audio booster is still not working
As my title, the audio booster is still not working properly after this update. It seems to cut out every time there is a drop in network connectivity.
This is a great shame, because for me it prodcuces the best audio output when combined with SRS WOW.
I am using S2P until audio booster is fixed, because bass level-wise, it is the next best thing. I know it is an iphone-clone along with S2U2, but they both do what I want for this particulalar purpose, so who cares!
Maybe one of the things they have fixed is where non HTC (4-pole connector) headphones make the phone act oddly like randomly redialling the last number dialled and the volume rocker fast forwarding tracks instead of doing the volume...?
Breaks Bluetooth Audio
Hello all.
I installed this hotfix on to Artemis 8.0 ROM and it broke the streaming of music to my bluetooth headset. Tried re-pairing the headset etc. to no avail. Anyone know a quick fix to return the audio output to my BT headset?
Thanks...
Guys, it says for HTC Sense. But thoes this effect WMP at all? I never use Sense to play music. But I have seen that WMP just randomly stop playing my music etc.
Any idea?
This fix does nothing for me... i still get lag, the pauses every 20-30 seconds...
REALLY ANNOYING. Although it didnt do it before, it jsut started in the last couple days, after a hard reset. ????
Does anyone have a solid solution to this problem? i dont wanna have to go to the 3rd party program EVERY time i want to listen to music.

I have now stopped using S2U2 and S2P and now using CHT Lockscreen and HTC Music again. There is still the Audio Booster problem, but with SRS WOW and Audio Booster on "Normal" it seems to be fine. I think if you choose a setting that it different, or customised then you notice the cut out. Either way, the phone seems more stable using less third party tweaks and software.
Hey guys, first off I will say I am very impressed with wp7 so far. I have one complaint/issue with my Focus and was wondering if anyone else has run into it. Now, I could just be an idiot, but I have no sound when playing music through the zune interface on my phone. I used the 14 day free trial to download some music from zune to test it out on my phone, would that make a difference? It shows that all the music is on my device, and when I hit play the song progress bar is moving as if it's playing, there's just no sound. Am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks in advance for the help.
I don’t mean to be mean but did you turn the volume up from the left side vol button?
Tried It!
Haha yes, I tried the volume. Both through the headphones when plugged in as well as through the device itself with no headphones plugged in. No Sound!
You may want to try using it on a different set of headphones or other line-in. It could be faulty headphones, but if it's not, you at least ruled that out and can start looking towards software settings or possibly faulty hardware.
That said, has anyone had any luck using their zune pass on their phone? I'm not sure if there's a certain place to use the streaming feature, but every song I've searched for and tried to stream is only a 30 second preview.
Earphones
The earphones are definitely good. Used them on other devices ok and they work with everything else on the phone (slacker, web, fm radio, sounds, etc.). The phone audio works for everything else as well, it's just in the Zune hub itself that no sound plays. Like I said, it gives me the track time, title, and other info, every indication it's playing, but it just doesnt make a noise haha. Zune works on my computer fine with all the downloaded audio as well. does everyone else's device have loudspeaker sound if they just hit play on a song in the zune hub?
Does the phone work for taking / making voice calls or in apps that can produce sound?
Yeah, the sound works perfect everywhere else. In call, in call with headphones, games/apps from marketplace, etc. It's literally just the zune hub. That's why I'm wondering if it's something stupid like a setting im missing, or a could it have anything to do with the fact that I have a trial zune membership?
Frustrating to say the least.
You could try factory resetting your phone. Settings -> About -> Reset. It will wipe you phone clean though.

Or hit the 'play symbol' (circle with sideways triangle) next to an album or playlist or song and it will stream with out downloading to phone.
I'm having sounds problems too, but I can hear the music. I have to turn the volume up to at least 14 to barely hear it. I've tried multiple headsets, same problem. My normal listening level is 20-23, and I can still hear people talking around me, so I know it's not that I'm trying to blast it...I stopped blasting my music 20 years ago - trying have some hearing left for the future ;-)
Stuttering!
Somtimes I hear stuttering at the end of songs, especially Zune pass songs. Does this happen anybody else?
I get this audio problem too intermittently. A reboot of the phone fixes it. Do a long hold of the power button, and then another long hold when its powered down. So I assume its a software issue. Anyone figure out whats causing it?

Yes, I've had it too.
Try this to test your audio:
Dial ##634# and press Call
Dial *#0289#
You should now be able to run through a few audio tests that will at least let you figure out if the hardware is functioning properly.
same problem here. happen to me alot, today it did it at least 2 times, i have to turn off the phone to make it work again...
