[Q] Text (notifications) Interrupt Music - EVO 4G General

Notifications Interrupt music for about 2 seconds, then music starts again. This does not happen on Cyanogen just wondering if there is a FIX for Sense Roms.
Is there a FIX out there for this very annoying issue? I have searched and searched with diff combination of words and no answer comes up?

If you are using the standard music app, open the app, p ress settings, then you should see a lossless ducking option, enable it. Then what wil happen is that the notification will play at a quieter right through the music, so it doeesn't stop at all.

Is this for the EVO? I forgot to mention what device I had lol...I just went to the Myn Synergy RC2 ROM from CM7 ROM. I cant find this setting on it. I want a sense ROM that doesnt interrupt music, I know Myn Warm 2 Point 2 RC5 didnt do this. Thnks for your reply

put the phone on silent. the media volume remains unchanged, and the phone will vibrate your notifications and not interrupt the music.
been doin this since stock froyo, and now running synergy rls1, but works on and rom this way.

Thx for your replys guys...I put notifications on Silent for now...until Poweramp Player includes fhe option to fix this. I just wonder why CM7 and Myn Warm 2point2 dont interrupt.

Putting thebphone on silent is the on,y wat to fix it at the moment but some developers have just found way to build their rooms so that this flaw doesn't occur

I don't think it's a FLAW, but rather intended operation. When I'm listening to podcasts in DoggCatcher, it pauses while any notifications are playing. It resumes playback after the notification sound is complete, but I don't miss words in the middle like I would if it were playing the notification over top of the podcast. It really seems like it's a system feature that requests to pause currently playing media while notifications are happening, and these apps merely respect the request.

It only does it when the headphones are plugged in, without them it will not do this.

So is there nothing to do for this then since I plug my evo in through the earphonejack to listen in the car

that happens to me too. i cant find anyway to fix it. turning off the notification sound just draws a silence when i get an new email or sms.

I don't think there is a fix yet if your on a sense Rom. I went crazy reading and searching about this. The Dev of Poweramp Player will be fixing this in the next update. Def. Worth the purchase without the fix...its a major plus once he can fix this.

Pandora

I have noticed that after I upgraded to the official 2.2 update and have the phone docked in the car dock, if I get a call or navigation voice kicks in pandora shuts all the way off and when I'm done it stays off. When I had 2.1 when I was done with a call pandora would start playing again. I thought it was the new battery manager, but I turned it to performance mode but it still turns pandora off and it disappears from the notification bar. Any ideas how to fix this?

I did a factory reset and it seems to have fixed the problem

I tried to post a link to my fix at Androidforums, but I don't have the permissions yet. Go there and search for "Froyo Pandora" and you'll find links to the v1.2.1 of Pandora which doesn't have this problem.
seems like pandora has gotten worse in lots of ways. it used to also show up in lock screen =\

Sounds

Every couple of days my ring tones go to the annoying default ringtone, all I have to do is reboot my phone simple fact us it's annoying

Are the notification sounds in options being reset, or is it just the file won't play? Also, when it happens again see if you can play music in the music app. If it fails I'd net its the same crap from MOTO that plagues many DX's.

That's unusual. Are you running any exotic-type apps. Are you rooted? Apex has notification settings in the apps themselves. Just trying to figure this out.
Stock rooted and yea they wont play in music player when it happens they stop working until its rebooted wierd

Are you using gtunes to download your music? Formally known as mp3 music download... I had the same problem and noticed the ringtones would change after I would update the app... the app kept on updating like once a week

Volume Control with Screen Off

Does anyone know if there is a way that the volume can be changed on the SGS i9000 without the screen turning on?
I have checked the settings of both Android and Winamp but found no option.
Also, an Internet search using Google and searching the XDA did not return a result...
I also find this annoying. I use the MIUI player

Thanks for the quick reply and information; I will definitely check that out now.
You would think that this would be a feature included with Android; although, maybe a developper would be able to create a mod with this feature. *hint hint*
Can anyone comment if such a modification would even be possible?
PlayerPro supports volume up/down with the screen off. It also supports skip forward/back with the volume keys, by holding them down. (this behaviour can be turned off and/or reversed with volume as well).
It's the only music app I've found that does this, although I wish it did pause instead.
Cheers
What firmware are you on? I'm on Darky's 9.3 (2.2) and it does this with the default music player.

THANK YOU!!!
I am using the JVB firmware currently and, as you mentioned, the default music player actually does not turn the screen on when changing volume.
Hah! All this time and I never thought to use the default music player. Go figure...
So, seems as though I should send yet another request to Winamp development.
Wish me luck...
Alright, to finish this thread off I thought I would mention that I have been using Winamp since it was released and never looked back; so, my apologies for anyone that may have facepalmed while reading this...
Suprisingly the default music player is not that bad. Actually, I think that I may continue using it instead of Winamp until an equalizer has been implemented and the volume can be changed without causing the screen to turn on. Also, the music player has features in the notification area and Winamp does not.
Either way, thanka again to everyone that helped; it is greatly appreciated.

Voodoo sound seems to allow me to adjust all music apps with screen off.

Hi the problem with the screen that turns on when pressing the volume keys occurs when you have a non stock lockscreen like widgetlocker or winamp lockscreen controls above the stock lockscreen.
I think everyone reproduce this problem in sgs

use player pro and voodo sound (voodoo control plus)
its worked like a charm
I honestly would just use the default samsung music player. It has built in eq's, has lock screen player & has a funky 5.1 button for the hell of it. (although it's debatable if it changes the sound quality for the better or not)

You have helped me to find the root cause. THANK YOU IMMENSELY!!!
The issue is that; although I use the stock lockscreen, it was disabled using the Extended Controls application because I was at work and next to my phone the entire time...
Good catch and thanks again. I owe you a coffee, beer, or something; but, in the meantime, I will click your thanks button. That's just as good, right?!

Motion control in music app?

I just updated my phone the new CM 7.1 RC1 and now when I play music with the head phone jack on every time the phone moves just a little the tracks skip/pause/misc stuff happens. Is there any way to disable this function it is really getting on my last nerves?

Bump anyone?!
what music app are you using? Have you attempted looking through settings to see if there's a "shake to change song" option?

I am using the built in Google music app, and no there is no option in it to turn it off.

Music randomly starts playing

Over the past few days, the music app has started playing music without anything to start it. I have not installed any apps that control the music playback and there are no widgets on the main home screen to do as such either.
Anyone else? Very odd behavior. I tried searching but nothing even close came in the results.

This will happen when a Bluetooth audio device connects..
Good point. However, I'm currently not paired to any devices. I haven't needed my headset or headphones just yet, so no pairing yet.

Yeah this is happening for me too. It plays the same song each time as well.
I have some similar problem. Sometimes when playing a track, it skips to the next track automatically. I have no idea what's causing this.

Yes! It's always Dave Matthews' "Crash Into Me" for me. Maybe my phone is trying to tell me something. Is it THAT advanced?
Seriously, though, it's annoying and embarrassing. Yesterday, it started up during a meeting.

Random music
I have had the same type of thing happen with a Droid X. Seemed to happen when I received a notification. As if it was grabbing a particular song instead of the notification tone. Just a thought.

Did you accidentally assign a song as a notification? I haven't done that.

If you have root, I recommend Autostarts. Let's you disable apps being notified when various events happen.

Would this app tell me what app might be starting the mp3 player? Thanks for the recommendation. I'll check it out.

Have you restored any application backups with TiBu or something similar? If so, then that app's ringtones could be set to play a random ringtone. With the right software installed, this could mean a random song. If this is the problem, just set that app's ringtones again to fix it.
