My standard music player pauses for no freaking reason. At first I thought it was the task killer, but them I added it to ignore list and it pause again.
Anti one know wtf is going on??

Hi, anyone know how to keep the music from stop playing after launching another app. Basically, after it's in the background it will finish a song but will stop and not play the next song. If the music app is in the foreground, it will keep playing continuously. I've tried Meridian and the build-in music app, also tried using album or playlist in both apps. both seems to be behaving the same. Phone is rooted running cyangenmod 4.2.10.1. Thx.
This is a known issue that started with Cyan. 4.2.9.1 and hasn't been solved in the latest version.
btw, you should've posted in Cyanogen's thread.
Quick question. Are you using Advanced Task Manager?
there is an app on the market called "ongoing music adapter". hope that solves your problem.
I am not using Advanced Task Killer. Will give the ongoing music adapter a try. thx everyone
I noticed that when I use the music player, the music stops playing when the screen turns off. I couldn't really find a setting to keep it on (unless I am not looking hard enough? ) I do have Launcher Pro instead of TouchWiz... could that have something to do with it?
Never mind, I found the culprit. It was my task killer which I set to kill all apps when the screen turns off. I just set the music player to the ignore list, and all works as it should.
If you use a task killer you've already failed. Lol

Since few days my mobile starts playing music automatically.but only on other players not on stock.I have tried WINAMP,MIUI,player pro.
It happens after I listen songs.
And also when I select winamp it starts playing even on pause.

Well even the stock music app restarts but it doesn't play the music.
Just a hunch, try stopping the song before quitting the player. That way, even if the player restarts, the song won't play.
I haven't used any of these players, just a guess.
Received a tip from Jazux:
I had Froyo-theme.
I switched to HTC-theme and music problem is solved.

I have the same issues with several players I've tried. After pulling out the headphones the music starts to play sometimes, even though the player is not even running.
I have to start the player, click "play" then click "pause".
Isn't it crazy?? I'm surprized there's no solution yet. My phone is running stock firmware 2.2 froyo.

sumtimes happened with me winamp..
it s not rare.. confirmed by market comments..
Just end the app with task manager
But isn't this a general android issue? Since I have this bug with winamp and cloudskipper. Some report it as well with other players.
Anyone else notice that the Music Player doesn't really shuffle all that well?
I've got a 32 gig card loaded in, all my music on the SD card. Have the player set to All Music with the shuffle setting on. I've got some artists that are heavily represented with hundreds of songs....but I've got others that have only one CD ripped in. When I'm at the gym, which is around 90 minutes, it's not uncommon to hear an artist with only one CD ripped come up three times or so. It's not a coincidence. It also seems to vary from session to session.
So....anyone else notice this?

Yes but none of the music players I've tried seem to shuffle very well. I've found double twist to be the best at it though with some good options.

I never use my music player but i do use google music cloud app which does a good job at random shuffle but Audio galaxy does it better as they have a thing called genie shuffling. U pick the first song and it will try to select all songs that come close to that first song in comparison in shuffling. Lets say u pick lady gaga it will play all the daNCE songs in shuffling like katy perry etc.
PowerAmp all the way baby

i notice it too... it seems to make a random list and just go on that and repeat itself sometimes..
I think my music player is officially retarded . I made sure that shuffle was on, no task killers were on, and it still played the same song. in succession. twice. is there a general consensus as to which is the best music app that isn't retarded.

Yeah have fun trying to customize that and iTunes don't even get me started. Don't get me wrong as purely a music player I wouldn't have anything else minus iTunes of course.

The same song coming up twice in a row isn't an indication that the "random" algorithm on the music player is crappy. It is almost certain to happen on occasion. Also, in a truly random system, each song is as likely as each other song to be played; a random string of songs has no memory. Like flipping a coin. So all your Michael Buble songs are as likely to come up as any other songs. Add in a little confirmation bias and there you have it!
Back to the question. I like Winamp. I'm an old fan from back in the day when it was the music player of choice for the desktop computer. I can't vouch for its shuffle capabilities though.
Shuffle sucks and don't forget to mention the search function. Horrible

Hi all,
Anyone happen to know how to stop Spotify from stopping playback for a second when a notification comes in from another app with Android 4.2?
Cheers!
That's a feature but some apps lower the volume for a second then raise it again while others pause.

Probably an obvious solution, but you can always kill notification sounds and just have it vibrate as an alert. Spotify shouldn't pause.
I have also always been annoyed by this. The apps playing the notification sound are the ones that determine if the music is paused or not right? I know that Chomp SMS has an option to NOT play notifications when playing music. So apps know when music is playing and can avoid the interruption.
I haven't seen other apps with that option, at least not the others I commonly use. So what I do is I have notifications disabled for most of my apps, but I like to know when I get a Gmail message, and Gmail will always pause my music (unless I set the phone to vibrate) which I don't like.
The main problem is when I stream music to my little Belkin audio gateway at home. If I set it on vibrate/silent, I can't hear the phone ring because the ringtone does not play through the A2DP music profile. I don't always have the phone with me because my range is limited (can't wait for a miracast affordable streaming audio solution).
I would love the music volume to be lowered while the notification plays, and then restore volume when it's over. Is there a ROM that does this? I know I used some ROMs on my EVO that did it, but don't know if there's a Nexus 4 ROM that will do the same.
I did set up a task with Automateit to set the phone to vibrate when Spotify is open. I think it will only do that when music is playing and not if the app is running in the background, but when downloading a playlist, it will do the same. Tasker probably has a better trigger so that it does this when music is playing, but I didn't want to pay the $7 for it today.
Shush! is another option if you know how long you will be listening to music, you can tell Shush to turn your ringer back on after an hour, but it's still not perfect.
how come in google music and amazon player it doesn't stop (whatsapp) but in spotify it does?

which spotify or whatsapp im wondering whos going to get my strongly worded email?
I know on some ROMs, like paranoid, you can revoke specific privileges and permissions for each app. Could we remove Spotify's ability to know the phones notification state?
