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?
hi all

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)
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...
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.
I have been running CM 6.1.0-RC1-Liberty on my Aria for a couple of months now. Sometime after flashing, I started to encounter sound problems. I first noticed it while using Google Navigator on long trips. The TTS would stop generating speech and the only sounds were low volume crackles/static. Initially, I thought this was associated with Navigator. However, over the last 2 - 3 weeks, this has started happening sporadically every 2 - 4 days. The only fix I have for it right now is to reboot the phone.
Otherwise, CM 6.1 works flawlessly with the exception of problems connecting to bluetooth devices from time to time. When I have this problem, I unpair the device and re-add and all works. This seems to be a somewhat common problem with Android devices and is easy to work around. It does not "appear" to be related to the crackling sound problem (i.e. one does not occur with the other).
I have not installed any TTS other than the default Pico.
I don't know what else to post in the way of info. Please let me know if you need anything else.
Thanks in advance for any ideas that you have on resolving this issue.

that thread wasn't about crackling/no sound it was about choppy ie: skipping music
what i found was after awhile especially when changing songs with the DSP manager effects/eq going caused the sound on mine to just be crackles i disabled all effects and just used poweramp for a music player because it has a built in 10 band eq
DSP Manager will definitely cause those issues.

Hello everyone, hope this is in the right place. So I recently started using slimkat, and everything has been going fine except for this problem that im having. I downloaded spotify but I have had problems when using it, since it only plays the song when im on the android homescreen. when i open spotify it stops, or if i pull down the notifications bar, pretty much anything thats not the homescreen of android makes it stop playing music, only to resume when going back to the homescreen. I thought it was something to do with the rom not being compatible or something, but today when I was using it it was working fine, used different apps while listening to music, locked the phone and still played music just fine. but later I had the same problem. now, testing a bit I realized that this is only happening when I've ot headphone plugged in. when they are not plugged in I can go into any app and not have problems. but when I plug them in again, I can only hear music when in the homescreen (note, the one time that everything was working fine I was using headphones).
Has anyone had something similar happen? is this a known problem? is it spotify ot the rom? I am using slimkat build 3.
Thank you in advance for your responses.

Came across thread with the same issue. Seems to be related to my Google now home screen. If I go back to trebuchet it fixes it
