Ringtones/Alerts no longer work, nor does Media player?! - HD2 General

I was woken up by G-Alarm this morning, which is good.... but it came up with an error, then so did G-Profile.
So i've reinstalled both and now i can't get any sound at all, plus Media player won't load.
If I play a video through the HTC player, it works fine and I get audio.
Anyone know what might be causing this?
I've only just wiped and installed a new ROM, so i'd rather not have to hard reset again!
Thanks!

HTC Album can’t play video

Hi,
I’m having trouble with HTC Album. It refuses to run video files (but has no problems showing images). Everything worked perfectly a couple of days ago. Today: when I tap on a video clip in the album nothing happens. If I run an .mp4 file form Explorer I just get a black screen.
Every other video player on my device works (Core Player, WMP, YouTube).
Anyone know what’s going on?
reset your device and try again.
I forgot to mention: a soft reset is the first thing I tried – no luck.
I’m pretty sure a hard reset will fix it, but I’m still wondering what the root cause of the problem is, or at least if anyone had a similar issue.

Sense Music Player problems

Hey all,
Everytime i plug my headphones in, the song im currently playing will skip at random.It works fine when im using the speakers though.
Same thing happens on Windows Media Player.
Nitrogen and pocketplayer seem to work fine though.
Anybody else have this issue?
And are there any solutions?
I indeed have the same problem but found no solution, also sometimes start playing randomly while I don't use Sense, very annoying if I'm using Nitrogen
I've even noticed this happen in Sense sometimes, not sure whats causing it, its very annoying.
I think I have the same problem as you guys. I think I may have fixed it by disabling the auto devicelock feature. I only tried this a couple of hours ago, but so far it has completely solved the problem for me. If you would like to try it, change the value of HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\ DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0 then soft reset. I found I can still lock the device manually without problems.
Hey thanks!
It seems to have worked, for now.
I'll report back in a few days.
Crap, the problem still persists.I guess i'll just stick to nitrogen...

Music and Video player "skips"

For some reason my music and video players "skip". It's not really skipping, just kinda pausing for a millisecond, like there isn't enough memory to run it. I know there is, so why is it doing this?
Anyone else with this issue?
i have not noticed this. Are you using the stock players?
It does it weather I use the stock players or cubed or act 1. Doesn't matter which player, it still seems to happen anyway...

yup same thing happens to mine...im going to do a factory reset and then transfer my music album by album (as appose to dumping all albums at once) and if it continues I'm exchanging my Vibe for another at the t-mobile store.....but if anyone had any info plz let me know...is there a fix?...
I've noticed this on occasion as well but wasn't sure if they were just bad mp3s.
Yeah, if it's happening on 3 different apps, that is very odd.
Curious, on an app like neocore, what was your fps?
Anyone else experience this? this is kind of a bigy for me
Okay, I've determined that it's an app causing it. I uninstalled everything but 3 or 4 apps and the problem has ceased. I'll have to reinstall them one at a time to determine which was causing it, but when I do I'll let you know.

When you do, will you pm me? Would love to add it to the sticky to prevent others from having an issue.
Why the need for so many players?
I was just experimenting with Cubed, I like the stock player just fine, and act 1 plays more formats and has more options than the stock video player, been using that since my G1.
Anyway, I uninstalled everything but compass, txtpad lite and xda and the problem appears to have ceased. I've now reinstalled HTC ime mod but haven't tested the player yet.

The stock video player has played everything for me so far... pretty impressed.
Have you tried RockPlayer?
noticed the skip issue when i installed the music mod from the N1 CM5 build. made things really buggy and it 'skipped' a lot. not sure if it was related to the random freezes that required a battery pull, but that and lots of problems started after i installed music mod. once i factory reset they went away.

Are you listening to this using bluetooth stereo? If so, turn off your wifi.
I continue having this problem when listening to music through a the 3.5 mm cable (like using headphones or when i have a two way 3.5mm plug that i hook up to my car)...any one else having this problem?.. but it doesnt seem to have a problem when on speaker...couldnt run the most elaborate test but it didnt skip through the two songs that i tested
Well, it would seem that both of these apps cause this "skipping" problem:
Weather and toggle widgets
Turtle photoframe
Both are widgets, and every time I uninstall them the problem seems to go away. Maybe its just certain widgets or a problem with touchwiz causing this. I'll keep testing.

i also am experiencing this problem. it not only happens when playing music from the sd card or device, but even on pandora i notice it skipping in the same manner it does when playing mp3s.

Music + Video player problem

Okay, sorry that ive been posting this elsewhere but no one has gave me an answer yet. Well, since the first time i installed windows phone 7 on my hd2 my video player and zune music player do not work. I click on the music + video tile and it shows "loading" but then it will just take me back to the home screen. Ive tried restarting the device, hard resseting, and even reINSTALL the rom itself but it still does the same thing. Even when i record a video, when i click it to try and play the video it will just take me back to the home screen AGAIN. This is very frustrating as it seems im the only one with this problem Ive synced a song but theres no way of playing it because the music app does not open!!!:/ The Zune player should be working without the live services and its not:/ Has anyone experienced this or knows what to do? Please help meeee.
Wow really can someone even attempt to answer if the zune player is working for them?:/ sorry but i mean come on. Im practically beggin for this
frustration just wanna make me to get DVP right away. I guess money is good. Trying to get to cheapest way will make you die sooner.

Video problems in kit kat

I have the v500 since christmas and i had no problem until i updated to kit kat. Before that, i watched my videos on bsplayer (its quite easy for using subtitles) or VLC, but now they both dont work well. Bsplayer is like slow, i mean, every 2 seconds the image stops for an instant and then continues, sound works without problem. In VLC it's the sound that stops working once every five minutes more or less, and for a few seconds. Sometimes, it also happens with some games. I alredy tried to restore the device and reinstalling the apps. Also deleting data files and cache of both apps.
Anyone having this problem and a solution??

Although I like BSPlayer and it works fine for me, I should point out that the default video player by LG works very well, reads subtitles just fine, and many codecs.
Did you clear app data or did you try uninstalling the apps and do a fresh install after the upgrade? I don't use either of those apps but i did have a problem after the upgrade with a couple of apps behaving badly until i cleared the app data and one required a reinstall.
doh, can you tell I was watching hockey when i wrote this? It looks like you already tried my suggestions...

I have problem with videos also.
I has started after changing soft to new soft 4.4.2.
While playing video (.mkv or .mp4), in defeault player or in MX Player, every few minutes, the picture is freezing for few seconds (audio is playing normally).
I have tried with different movies, always the same.
Before Android update everything was allright.

The same is happening to me as well. I'm considering following the thread in XDA about downgrading to original 4.2.2, but I'm worried about bricking the G Pad. It's the last option; i have tried with several different players, and after a factory reset to no avail.
It's a mess from LG, I can't understand how this could go under the radar during their testing phase.
Anyone has info about future updates?
this actually happens to me using the stock video player on kit kat. I been using mx player since then with no issues..
Hi,
I have exactly the same issue with videos on 4.4.2 whatever video player I am using. I updated my tablet as soon as I bought it, so I can not compare to 4.2.
I switched to the ART runtime (you need to enable Developer options to do so) a week ago and since then, video playing is smooth again.
Regards,
