So i got this problem for many months now.
It does not matter which player i choose (i tried most common ones)
and the app headset blocker doesnt fix the issue.
basically the music just randomly stops or loops or just changes wildly around.
im running cm 7.1 but previous versions were the same.
is there any other fix yet? headphones are standard sennheiser inear.
sometimes it works though..but mostly not.
I had the same problem with aftermarket earphones.
Randomly music would play, pause, restart loop crash and whatever.
Took me months to figure out, this is my lifesaver now:
Disable AutoPlay will disable your Media Button Inputs from your headset remote control. This will avoid your phone from starting the media player if you connect normal headphones.
warning: if media button is disabled you will not be able to accept calls with your headset remote control.
You can download it from the market, its free.'
Search for Disable Autoplay.
Well since i dont even have a headset that wont matter... ill try that, i couldnt reproduce the bug now but ill see if it gos away now..thanks anyway
So this happens when you wear headphones (are standard sennheiser inear) or random running musicplayer?? .
So i could test it today and it didnt fix the issue.
it happens when i hear music via headphones with any music player.
( for example winamp playerpro stock player etc...)
any other ideas?
From posts that i read, the number of circles on the ear phones Jack can cause the skips.
Im using a skull candy earphone and its working fine. The headset blocker is taking in effect. Music does not skipping/pause/replay anymore. Im running on absolutionv3.7 based on cm7. Oh yeah, I'm using stock music player.
But headset blocker does not work on sense roms. T.T I wish it worked on sense roms. Also, stock music player on sense rom.

ell now i went into some famous german media shop and looked around if there were any headphones that around complete garbage and work with htc phones specifically, but of course no luck. and since all the other headphones have the exact same connector i dont think it will change a thing.
i still onder if it could be cm7?
well i read same issues from stock rom users. and it as the same with cm6.
and i now learned that those are the only headphones with that connector that i own :l
can you recommend me another good rom to try?
must have is (which was the initial reason i use cm) a fixed bluetooth stack. stock rom doesnt allow me to use my wiimote (and afaik all sense roms have that issue)
a kernel that lets me oc to at least 1,5 gh and an overall slim look and feel. hate that rubbish sense stuff.
@kakihara - What kernel are you using? I had massive music skips when used default cm kernel, but when I changed to LordClockan BFS kernel, all music skips were gone, and I can fully enjoy music listening no matter what player I choose.
@Desire HD & CyanogenMod
I too had a similar issue after I flashed CM7 & 7.1. Also had this issue with an ICS ROM (I forget which one). I am interested to see the cause and any fixes. I gave up and went back to my trusty RCMix3D V4.0 ROM.
I actually sent my phone to repair when i first discovered this issue, but they couldn't determine anything wrong with my phone. When i installed headset blocket, it thankfully worked(from time to time). But my final solution is that i'm going to buy a pair of Klipsch Image S4a(Android Controls), since i'm in need of some new earbuds anyway. I hope it solves the issue.

So the bluetooth ROM leak issue is definitely fixed. I can reboot the phone and it is still paired with my car, and I am able to make & receive calls perfectly.
However, when I try to play music or podcasts via the bluetooth speakers, absolutely nothing is heard. The music app/podcast player (BeyondPod) both show that they are playing, but nothing is heard. When I turn bluetooth off, both apps play their respective files perfectly through the phone speaker.
Whats REALLY weird is that when trying to play through bluetooth, they both are playing super fast i.e. for every second that passes in reality, the player says that it has played about 4 seconds (almost like its in fast forward).
Although its great that bluetooth can now pair perfectly and stay paired, Im now completely unable to play any media.
Would like to know if anyone else is experiencing this and/or has any ideas.
This is the ONLY issue I now have with the Hero and Im determined to get it sorted...
Thanks for all the help/comments

I have two CDMA Heros in my household, one rooted and one not. The unrooted phone went through the OTA update without problem and it played music over bluetooth speakers without any problem, just as it did before the OTA update.
I think it's an app setting of some sort. Some apps allow you to turn BT audio on and off. Try another app, like ACast or something.

Fresh ROM Bluetooth Issue Confirmed - Prevents Media Being played throgh B/T Speakers
OK, so Ive just confirmed that the Fresh 0.4 ROM has an issue with playing media through bluetooth speakers, and Sprint/HTC are 100% NOT responsible for it.
Originally, I restored back to my original Sprint ROM, updated to Fresh 0.4, and all worked perfectly; except for the fact that I was unable to play any media whatsoever through bluetooth speakers (making and receiving phone calls worked fine and all bluetooth ROM leak issues were fixed). What was weird was that the music app and podcast app i was using (BeyondPod) showed that they were playing, but they looked as if they were playing in fast forward i.e. for every second that past, 4 seconds of the song/podcast were played according to the app. NB: The phone and the speakers showed that the link was established perfectly (for whatever thats worth)
I then decided to go back to when I first got the Hero i.e. use the Sprint RUU to unroot and got back to original ROM. Then did the OTA MR.
Playing media through the speakers worked 100% perfectly.
So bottom line, something has been changed/removed in the Fresh ROM that messes up media via bluetooth.
I havent come across anyone else talking about this, but any additional info would be great.
All the best.
I have done a fresh clean (started with Sprint RUU) to a fresh 0.4 update (not from modaco) and i also have this issue. I also tried the above check and i got the same results. Please if you have this issue, contact the makers of fresh rom and let them know of the issue if they do not already know.
Quick question does anyone have issues with poweramp or any other third partymusic player playing through bluetooth Every froyo build I have tried always has this issue
What kind of issues? I have a moto s9 that I am able to listen to music through, but every once in a while it drops out for about a second and then continues on.
Running Bonsai 1.1.3 and I use Bluetooth Audio and HF in my Jeep with no issue. If I have my Bluetooth on when I start the Jeep, it even Auto-connects. Playback is flawless on audio and quality on calls is great. In fact, Audio out through bluetooth gives me a much higher max volume than using the 3.5mm jack and the AUX in.
By the way: I have successfully used MIUI, Slacker, Pandora, and stock player with Bluetooth.
I could not get PowerAmp to run properly under DK28, I now use WinAmp and it works perfectly.
Yeah I'm able to use stock player but I can't use power amp or mixzing .....if u haven't tried power amp try it ,it has the best eq out there ....another note on my evo power amp worked on froyo
Oh I didn't c your post duckie well I guess its a app issue that sucks because in my opinion that is the best player out in the market
Hope OP doesn't mind but figured I would ask in a similar topic and add my own Froyo questions instead of starting a new thread. (Crazy amirite?)
I used dk28 for a bit when first leaked, I've been thinking of going back now that it has been out and cooking awhile. What I want to know is if two issues have been eliminated in any roms.
1. Physical keyboard lag and missed keys were much worse on dk28. I would be fine if any roms managed to get it back to more usable di18 standards.
2. Music skipping. Ie Last.fm skipped and stuttered when you did anything with the phone other than let it idle. This was a big red flag for me as I'm an avid music listener.
Thanks.

Bonsai 1.1.3/EXT4/GB Theme... I don't see either of those problems.
So I installed that, yep, Last.fm still spits and stutters anytime you do anything but just let it idle and play music. Back to DI18.

Hey I don't know to much about last.fm but I use tune in radio and it works great on froyo. Just wanted to let you know.
Clicks and pops in pandora audio.
this looks like the basic stagefright issue but good lord how long will this go on?
I have tried to disable stagefright but have been unable to do it or tell that i have as the problem has not gone away.
i do still need to do that.
I see so little information on this.
CM7 2.6.35.13 pershoot kernel
It doesnt happen in jango. havent tried slacker.
Doesnt happen in radio time.
only happens on some pandora songs.
Coldplay songs on pandora have it often enough. "Clocks"
this is a tmobile g2. it is running off of 4g.
i have tried bumping the cpu up.
changing EQ settings and lots of searching.
it appears that some phones have this issue and other do not but most appearances of the issue do not have a solid solution.
if there is a solid solution to this i did not see it in a FAQ.
Is there no solution to this? is this still a fight between android and pandora audio format or what is the deal?
I noticed I get choppy audio from Pandora if "Cell Network Audio Quality" in "Preferences" is set to "Normal". After changing it to "High" the audio is clear and sounds amazing in my car!
Aw geese. I am using high quality audio.
The cm7 basic kernel does the same thing. It has done this since I moved off the stock rom to cm 6.
The clicks and pops and not easy to hear. But once I hear it then I think its happening all the time.
Slacker doesn't seem to have this issue.
I use blue tooth a2dp? Stereo head phones and they are working in this mode.
I have had a mobile 6.5 phone a 3g iphone and this g2 with these head phones. The g2 audio in pandora is unacceptable.
Ill use slacker but I like pandora.
And pandora should work.
I do not accept that it is an issue with only my phone.
I think if you listen with right song the clicks are very noticable. Anybody should be able to hear it.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I use pandora mostly in my car with just a hair over 1000 watts total to door speakers and subwoofer. The door speakers have the majority of the power with a 760 watt amp, and I listen to my music loud. I'm sure I would have noticed any clicking and popping. I use a stereo jack though, maybe because you are using wireless it doesn't sound as good.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
it doesnt happen with all songs.
But it doesnt happen with slacker at all.
it is something to do with pandora.
I believe the past issues were with the android codec and a fileformat pandora used. I figure that must still be the case.
Not all of pandoras songs use the same file format as i understand it asn i dont hear the issue in every song.
I do hear it as well through the crappy car stereo mini plug input jack i use.
what are your phone specs? are you using cyanogenmod 7? which kernel?
Are you running in high quality audio for pandora.
have you tried it their coldplay songs?
also have you tried using bluetooth stereo headphones.
i dont use the miniplug input jack in my car.
the headphones i use are.
sony
dr-bt22a
they sound fine in pandora on all the phones i have tried that have bluetooth audio that is not broken. Granted a lot of phones have broken bluetooth audio.
I run MIUI 1.7.1, kernel 2.6.35.13-EB-CM7-Streamline5 on my T-Mo G2. Dunno the clock speed but whatever default is, I haven't tweaked it at all. I run Pandora with high quality audio, and I mostly listen to top hits, and electronic style music, not cold play specifically. Also, I don't have any bluetooth headphones, the only time I use Pandora is in my car, and I have a stereo jack input on my stereo.
cm7 nightlies here, I use pandora daily and have never experienced this issue... and I am definitely anal about audio quality.
are you using dsp manager on your bluetooth headset?

Yes i am using dsp manager. sounds pretty cruddy without the EQ.
I always use it. i havent tried it without.
Is there a known problem with the DSPmanager?

not any known problems that I'm aware of, but that would be the first place I'd look to when troubleshooting.
see if completely disabling DSP manager for bluetooth makes a difference.
I'll try a coldplay station (mind you, I'm not a fan. you owe me. ) on the way home today and see if I can pick out any infidelity.
some call it heterosexual gay music...
but what ever.
I think i have tried disabling it.
I dont know. I was really hoping there was some known issue somewhere.
Other songs do it too. in pandora. slacker, which i dont like much, does not seem to have this issue.
it does it without the dsp from what i can tell its just harder to hear but
red hot chili peppers "scar tissue" does it pretty clearly and horribly.
dsp on or off. even tried killing the dps service.
next song was matt kearney "nothing left to lose" and i did not hear it there but i think it is... if i hadnt heard it in the previous song I would not think it was in this one.
maybe i can make a recording of the audio...
Hmm. if i can get to happen from the audio jack as well. it sounded like it was doing it in the car with the mini plug.
http://www.skullcandy.com/shop/2011-50-50-green-black.html I am getting these headphones, and am Just wondering if it does or doesn't support technology. It's like what lets you control the music from your little mic thing on the headphones.
It probably depends on the rom and/or music player. I had a different pair of skull candy headphone with a button on the mic. On some roms it worked for answering calls.( I think samsung based roms but its been a while) And ive had good luck with songbird player for music controls. That pair of head phones has since broken so I cant verify.
As far as I know 2.3.x roms do not have the button working. The devs are working on it.
Not sure about 2.2 roms
Vibrant+MIUI
I can control music through my bluetooth headphones by hitting prev/forward. On 2.2 kb5.

With the stock earphones, I am able to skip and pause songs on the stock audio player. On Pandora, I am only able to pause/unpause.
I know a few gingerbread roms it didn't work, and I can't remember if any it did work(I want to say cm7 it did work), but you should be able to search those threads to see if anyone is complaining.
Otherwise, I know that any 2.1+ rom it should be working. I bought poweramp music player a long time ago, it is about to put out a huge update that will easily make it the best player. It has custom controls for the button, either click and hold or double click to switch tracks, click once to pause/play or answer/hangup a call if one comes in.
I look for this in my roms, I bought several pairs of the same headphones that came with the phone because I didn't notice skullcandy really being superior, and I lose these things like no tomorrow.
I don't think that it works with GB at all.
I KNOW it works on froyo, but i cant say specifically which ROMS.
Also it does matter what music player your using.
For example: For me... It works on the Touchwiz Musicplayer but it doesnt work on Ubermusic even though it does have the controls setting feature...
We definitately have the latest "don't get updates from Tmobile\Samsung" technology.
Hello I'm facing some problems when I connect the headphones (standard one), it works fine for some time then it start to pause/start/switch next/switch previous the music quickly, it also opens the program that's currently playing the music, just driving the phone crazy. While this is happening I can't play/pause/switch next/switch previous the music by pressing the little microphone (that's used to receive your voice when you get a call while using headphones) (Pressing one time pause/start music | Pressing two times switch to the next music | Pressing three times switch to the previous music), but after some time this problem stop (Still can't play/pause/switch next/switch previous using the microphone ), then when you think everything will be fine it start to happens again...
Did anyone face this problem before? How can I solve this?
I got MB525 + CyanogenMod 7.2 Stable + Winamp 1.2.7 Pro (I've tried with default music player, but the problem still happens)
Bump, I really need help with this
Try with a different pair of headphones?
I have an HTC Inspire 4G and this problem happens to me also.
It doesn't happen all the time, but when it does happen I notice that the normal headphones icon has changed to the microphone headset icon. The headphones I use don't have a microphone so I'm not sure why it would detect a mic.
Then the voice control comes up and the phone starts going crazy, calling previous contacts, playing/pausing/skipping songs at random...
Any ideas on a fix?
^ The same happens to me, but Defy's default headphones have microphone, sometimes it shows as headphone only and sometimes as headphones + microphone (as you said)(Pictures showing what I mean below). While it was showing headphone only, I tried to call my phone and the microphone worked fine. While it's showing as headphone only the problem won't happen, but when it shows as headphones + microphone it's prone to get crazy randomly
Headphones only:

Headphones + microphone:
http://i.imgur.com/manR4.png
I've tried with 2 others headphones: One of them didn't seem to reproduce the problem, but other reproduced it all the time
I've uninstalled the default music player + disabled the opition "Let Winamp control the headphones" in Winamp, seems that it helped a bit, but still happens
My phone's warranty will end in November 25th, so I need a answer fast: Should I send it to repair or is there anyway to fix this?
I have found that certain ROMs will do this more than others, so maybe you should try to flash a different ROM?
Aww, CyanogenMod 7.2 is so lovely... Default FroYo is bad, CM9 and CM10 still unstable
Which ROM are you using?
