Media cuts out, requires restart. - Droid X General

Working with my friends DX, every so often his media just stops working. Tells him media is not supported when trying to play a song or video. Gallery doesn't updated and new pics don't save. Always requires a reboot. He's rooted, running OTA froyo but this was happening before he upgraded. Is this a known issue? Any thoughts?

The minute I start using the music player, my phone starts to act weird and eventually requires a reboot. This has been the case ever since I upgraded to 2.2 (OTA).

I had the same issue... all of a sudden the phone would not play mp3's... including my mp3 ringtones and message alerts....
That was on 2.1 and 2.3.15 (leak)... I flashed to tranquility over 2.3.15 (leak) and no problems as of yet.

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,

Music issues

have anyone faced an issue where music stopsplaying and you have to reboot the device in order to play it again???
Never heard of such an issue. But you need to be far more specific around here..
1. What music player are you using? Try using a few and see if the same problem occurs.
2. What version of OxygenOS are you running?
3. Did you do a full wipe before/after upgrading OxygenOS?
Quite often a factory reset will solve software issues like these. Have you tried that out?
using mp3 files, nothing special tbh
did not try before upgrading to the latest version I have which is Oxygen 2.1.2
the issue is basically that after several songs in some cases skipping songs it stops playing them, it has happened on 2 different apps, walkman and google music. even if you look for a new song/file it just wont play. the time of the song remains on 0:00

Audio randomly cutting out S7 edge

I am experiencing random cut outs of audio during media playback through the speaker. Bluetooth and headset working fine. Notifications and other sounds working fine. Mainly during video playback, streaming and video stored on device, the sound plays for a few seconds then cuts out. I didn't have this issue before the most recent OTA update. I have tried factory resets, rebooting, wiping cache, even custom roms. Does anyone else have this issue? What is the solution?
I have the same issue as you. GS7 Edge Verizon. I can't find any solutions out there yet :crying:
Same issue. The only thing that I can add is that when the speaker cuts out, if I switch to phone, make a call, and then put the call on speakerphone, then hang up, the problem is fixed for a few minutes.
Does anyone have a solution for this? Surely its a common issue. Unless my phone is on charge I can't use apps like spotify, listen to podcasts or radio unless I keep the screen on.
Any luck?
I have the issue on a sm-g930F. Samsung support just says i should send them my device but thats not my plan. I called them and sayed i want a update of the firmware but they refused me and just sayed i have to send it to them because they can not make a update without my device is seen. I really hope someone sends his device to them that we can get a new firmware . Iam on android 7.0 official samsung update but this bug is in 6.0 the same .
Anyways i need a soöution for this. Its a softwarebug i know, because nexus 6p users and nexus 5 users expirienced the same ****in error. Please help out.!!!
I was experiencing audio pause or stopping after an OTA upgrade to Nougat on my stock S7 Edge Duo (G935FD), when using Pocket Casts podcast app to play files stored locally on internal memory. This seemed to happen primarily when using wired headphones or bluetooth speaker, and some minutes after the phone screen turned off.
I tried wiping the app cache, reinstalling the app, wiping phone cache, full phone wipe, reinstall stock Nougat via ODIN, TWRP & rooting phone, disabling Samsung App Power Saving via Titanium Backup (com.samsung.android.sm / com.samsung.android.devicesecurity). Only when I booted into SAFE MODE did the problem go away. So I used TB to disable pretty much everything I could recognise as an app I had installed.
Eventually, after much tinkering I seem to have narrowed it down to some combination of Quick Connect, Google Chrome and Android System Webview. I have disabled QC and Chrome and I no longer have any audio issues. When I unfreeze/freeze Chrome or Android System Webview I get an audio issue as the app freezes/unfreezes.
I had same problem and ı thought this problem can be related to an app ı installed. And it was. When i uninstalled Sputnik news. My problem had gone. If u have it, uninstal. If u dont have, may be one of other app causes. Try uninstalling each app, and find the app causes this problem

Unable to play any video, no sound and phone reboots on making a call

My Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 has been giving me wierd problems lately. It is running on stock Android and never meddled with any software. I was just speaking to someone over phone and it suddenly rebooted.
Ever since on trying to make a call, the phone hangs up, shows System UI and Phone not responding and reboots. No application is able to play any video. It just stays up as paused. No sound is coming out from any apps.( Tried checking the ringtone for basic sounds and stuff). Everything else works perfectly. No signs of lag. This message is being written from the device itself.
These are what I tried to do :
1. I did a factory data reset, wipe cache.
2. Tried reverting back to previous update.
3. Reflashed the Entire ROM using the flashall_aft.cmd.
Same issues coming up. I am sensing some hardware issue. Not dropped , neither had any liquid damages. All happened suddenly.

I think it is a hardware problem. Go to the service center and repair the phone.
Exact same issue

Bro, Facing the exact same Issue. I even tried flashing custom ROM and the problem still persists. Did you fix it? I can't go out because of the Virus as of now.

Edit:
It seems that if I pull up any video through MX Player it starts playing, without audio though. The audio button shows audio track as disabled and doesn't allow me to change it to Track 1.
I believe, if am not wrong, my device is unable to process audio anywhere. Do you think any part of the motherboard is at fault and could it be tweaked for that??

If I access YouTube through Google Chrome in desktop mode,videos start playing.
So basically any app that processes audio along with video isn't working. For eg: Whatsapp vidoes work if I play them via MX Player but no in the app.
Hence I can't place or receive calls too.
I guess MX player decodes audio seperately, so it plays videos well.

Yes!!!
Although I'm using it for scrolling through Facebook, Instagram (videos without audio ofcourse), for reading journals and minor gaming.
Using a spare one for calling . Serves my purposes for now.
Will tell you if there's any development.
