Music Stuttering - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I have found with every desire HD build I have tried recently that the music player stutters every now and again. I have tried to search but it is unavailable and can't find anything from browsing. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't think there's really a fix for it, just something that's there.
As far as I'm aware, it also happens with actual DHD phones so it might be HTC's fault...

Music stops playing on TF3D player

Hi,
I've just bought the Blackstone from Orange UK. Noticed this problem with the TF3D music player. Once I begin playing any song, it just stop playing after a few seconds, maybe 15-30secs. The icon still appears to be playing but no sound is heard. Has anyone else faced this problem? Is it just on the Orange phones? Can I upgrade my rom? As I understand, network roms are not upgraded! What do I do? Please help!!
Also, is there a way the library can be refreshed or updated with the TF3D music player?
Thanks.
No one else experienced this??
Am I the only one with this prb? Anyone with any updates plz?
if you gon on the htc website there is a hotfix for skipping music, although you said your sound stops this might fix it. Worth a try
Tried the fix already, unfortunately it doesn't work!
Still looking for a solution for this problem. It is really nagging!! Plz help!!
Dude, use search, there is a number of ongoing threads for this topic. I for one have never had this problem (with shipped or cooked ROMs), but it seems plenty of others have. Good luck with it.
I've tried upgrading to the latest official ROM 1.56 but this still hasn't fixed the issue. This is pretty strange! How come not many others have faced this?

MP3 playback speed problem

My girlfriend's elf plays mp3s faster than their real speed. The pda was mine before and I hadn't noticed this because I didn't use it for listening to music.
I've searched through the forums without success, the only thread I found says that I have to call myself on and the playing speed jumps back to normal. wtf!? Which seems to be true.
Anyone can help me to solve this problem? This is a must have feature for my gf and I really don't want to sell this cute elf. MP3 playback is faster as a ringtone, too.
me too have the same problem..at first i thought it was because of the 4gb sdcard i use, but then i realise that was not the cause..i listen to mp3 a lot using my elf and everytime the problem occur, i have to soft reset my device..thats the only way to have it play by normal speed back..
I thought I was the only one having this problem, I don't usually use my phone as an mp3 player but this can be really annoying.
I don't think it's a ROM problem because I've changed my ROM 3 times already and still this occurs.
I hope someone can give us a fix for this.
my elfin plays mp3 and other audio files faster too... but then video playback seems normal for me... my workaround to this problem is to plug the original htc earphone, unplug, and it plays normal again...
any more useful fix for this problem???
Do you use software to overclock the processor's clock? (omapclock, batterystatus, etc.) I'll try this on the weekend and fire up a new rom, too. SRSWow is just for the quality of the sound, am I right? Or should I give it a try?
overclocked or not, playback is still fast
switching roms doesn't help (tried Onyx 5, 6, Miky, Mega, Ahen roms)
plugging in and out of the earphones is my only solution
EDIT:
is there an app that 'tricks' windows that a headset is plugged??

I don't know such an app but I think we can call ourself on by code which seems to work. Doing this in every 10-60, etc. minutes could solve the problem but this method is the last one I want to use. Would be really ugly.
Have you tried srswow hd? There was a thread where somebody said that could help. (And others said it doesn't.)
Anyway, I think we have to watch for windows messages. Get the messages invoked by the headset plug in and out and others that related. Maybe we will find something
Unfortunately, I don't have better idea.
I already tried srswow and it doesn't help
I'm also trying htc hardware equalizer, but same effect as srswow
even tried other media players like coreplayer, tcpmp, audio manager but none worked...
Several tims I have also faced the same issue "Fast Play MP3" but In Onyx I never faced this issue...
@premsoni4u
which Onyx ROM are you using?
Because currently I'm using Onyx Ultimate 4.9 and I'm still having the same problem.
It's not just the mp3, folks...
It's actually everything that has to do with audio on our devices... from your ringtones, sms alerts, even the system sounds.
it sucks big time... i don't think anyone's found a solution to this yet.
No audio playback speed problem in Onyx 6 series!!!

Presently I am using Onyx 6, Release-7, WM6.5 and never faced this issue in any version of onyx 6 series.
Today I am going to flash Onyx 4 series (Specially 4.9 ultimate version) to check the issue and will report you guys, if issue persists...
Hey guys I would like to jump in the wagon.
I'm having the same problem too
I'm using the dsixda's ONYX 4.9 JR version
Anyone can give a hand on this problem? It's really frustrating
hi guys
i have the same problem with you guys for a long time
in fact its since the very first time i used my elfin with a cooked ROM
until today no one have a fix for this
i've posted this problem a number of times
only solution for now is to reset the phone
but it's kinda annoying to keep resetting a couple of times a day
but when i tested it with 6.5 ROMS this problem doesn't occur
Anyone?
This problem is becoming increasingly annoying... In the span of 6 months or so that we've been having this problem, I noticed that the frequency of the problem manifesting itself has increased...
I used to have the same problem earlier. At that time, I used to reset my phone and it used to start playing mp3s at proper speed.
I currently have the latest Onyx Rom (link in my signature) and I've never faced the problem after installing this ROM. Maybe if the problem persists, try using a different player (Nitrogen is my favorite).
Can any1 help me.. MP3 songs are playing a bit fast in My touch..
facing the same problem... any luck guys?

Another solution is just dial any number and make your phone on speaker. once you hear voice on speaker just disconnect and again you are able to play music on your elf/in at normal speed...
(Tip: Just dial your own number so you will hear only busy beep and no other will be disturbed)

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.

[Q] What on earth is this???

Hi Guys,
I have a Note 3 SM-N9005 and I have come across a really odd issue that I have yet to find a solution to.
All music and other audio – so that’s, White Noise Apps, Relaxation Assp ete every single music app I have tried from PowerAmp, N7, PowerPlay etc… ALL start skipping after about 20mins. The skips are always the same in terms of duration – almost Morse like in their regularity.
This NEVER happens with an un-rooted stock ROM. But happens EVERY time without exception with ANY other ROM I have tried.
One important thing to note is that it doesn’t happen immediately, which makes me think its an update that is incompatible with customs ROMS.
I have tried increasing the buffer, killing Google Music app etc…all to no avail…
I’d be well impressed if someone has a solution to this as it doesn’t seem to be anywhere else.
Edit:- Also its not a hardware issue as its been checked.
M…
Bump! Seriously, nobody else experienced this???

Audio and Video Won't Play?

Hi, ever since I got my G928T I've been having an extremely strange problem where video and audio will not play (regardless of source). This means nothing out of the speakers , and in the case of YouTube, the video being frozen on the first frame.
I've done a factory firmware reset through Kies, and am now rooted running the new custom kernel released a few days ago. I also converted /system, /data, and /cache to f2fs.
However, regardless of what I do, the problem persists.
The only way I've been able to do anything about this problem is by placing a phone call and then ending it. I have no idea why, but this will always fix the audio and sometimes the video for a short period of time.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? The times when the phone call doesn't fix it are extremely annoying; I practically run my life on my phone and the inability to play media isn't a good thing.
Thanks!
A little more detail with the calling: every single time I want to play a different YouTube video, I have to open the dialer, place a call, and go back to YouTube for the video go begin playback.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm still trying to find a solutuon!
I dont know i mean trying to find the answer does anyone know this plz give the answer ok
Furthermore, this issue isn't solely audio and video, it's every single sound throughout the OS (including keyboard clicks and tap sounds).
Very odd, I really don't know what to do :/
MAY HAVE FOUND A FIX!! I disabled AdaptSound and SoundAlive with Titanium Backup and I've yet to experience any issues.
This may be what we need!
Let me know if it works for you guys!
I also installed Viper4Audio, and used force enable for the super high audio quality driver.
EDIT: Does not seem to always work; instances of failure have still ocurred
They do, however, seem to be somewhat less frequent...
Good luck everyone!
So a bit more info: ever since installing Viper and disabling said apps via Titanium Backup, I find that most of the time I simply need to press the lock button when the song audio/video isn't working and that'll fix it. I have no idea why turning the screen off would make the phone to play the sound, but that's where I'm at now..
