Sense music player problem

When I am playing music using HTC's sense music player, if I press the end call button to lock the phone, the music stops. This problem has only started happening last night, before it was working fine. The only new programme I have installed is SPB Travellers Demo. Any suggestions to fix this?
PS: if I manually lock the phone, it keeps playing.
It shouldnt happen if your using headphones, if your listening through the speaker then you just have to let the screen turn off on its own, just set it to time out after 30 secs........ its annoying i know.....
havent noticed a fix for this anywhere though.........
I havent really looked for one though to be honest, there probably is one.......
Thanks but I'm sure it used to work before ...

Now that you mention it I only noticed this recently and like you I dont remember it having happened before but because I rarely listen through the speaker I just thought I was imagining things and it had always done that...........
Now I'm really confused........
I know, does anyone know what might have caused this problem or any solutions?
sorry i dont know what causes this but it happens when i use headphones sometimes to - i find if i press the end call button straight after pressing play it stops but if you let it play for a few seconds then press it its ok?
Might be obvious but have you installed the official music stability update?
Yep, as I say, it appeared to be working fine until last night. The only programme I have recently installed is SPB Travellers Demo.

Skype issues

Hi all,
I have installed the 'hacked' version of Skype which allows video calling on the SGSII. However the problems also apply to the official one on the market. The problems I am having are namely:
1) In call volume is too low - I can barely hear the person on the other end of the line. I am apparently fine. When I switch to video mode, I can barely hear them on the external speaker. I have set the call volume to max which improved things a touch (via the main SGSII settings). Is there any way round this?
2) Proximity sensor does not appear to work. This is generally ok as the screen timeout eventually kicks in, however when I then need to go back into the app I have to get past the lockscreen. Is there any way to get the proximity sensor to work and thus when I need to access the app during or post call, I don't have to go through the lockscreen every time?
Thanks in advance.
Farvesh.
*Bump*
Don't like to normally do this but it has been almost a week and no response....
Does anyone have these issues or is it just me?
Sorry, but it works fine here.
I am pretty deaf and I could hear it fine via speaker.
And the proximity sensor worked well.
(using 2.0.0.47 hacked skype on VR2.0)
I have camera issues sometime (turn upside down). But not always.
I reverted back to the official but didn't notice any of your issues.
Not 100% sure if Skype was the cause but was cached in the background and battery depleted a lot quicker til i froze it with Titanium...
Would it not of been better to post your concerns over at the forum that is running the hacked program?
You'll get better results from there.

As I said in the first post the same applies to the normal version in the market. I guess it is only me then - that being said I am using LR 1.5. Proximity sensor definitely does not work (screen timeout eventually turns the screen off).
Sound is definitely low as well - I compare it to my wife's 3GS and there is a very clear difference. Have the same problem with Tango as well... It's either the rom or a setting somewhere. Thanks for your responses anyway - appreciate it.

Like I said you'll get better feedback from the forums dealing with the hacked skype version.
Go in there and post your issues along with rom details mobile to mobile or mobile to PC skype chats..
theos0o may ask for your skype log file... Hope this helps

Optimus L5 problem with the microphone in calls on CyanogenMod 10.1 - Beta 5

Hello, I'm currently having some problems with my Optimus L5 ... When making or receiving a call, the microphone stops working completely, I hear the other person normally, but the other person can not hear me. The curious thing is that when I activate the speakerphone, the mic works normally. Another way that works normally is when I connect the headset and talk to your internal microphone. Already tested programs recording voice and music recognition and apparently all work perfectly . For this reason I think that the problem is not the mic itself but a software problem .. But I remember I did not touch anything in the system that it was the microphone, and a few days ago everything worked normally ..
If anyone knows any solution please help me, I'm going crazy with this problem and I am still unable to make or receive calls, it is really annoying ..
Sorry for bad english, I'm Brazilian, this is the google translator...
weird,i have not do a call with beta5,but now i test it.
edit,have tested and for me its working fine.no issues

@-CALIBAN666-, this problem is not in beta 5, I know this because I use the CM 10.1 since beta 2 and it never happened... this problem appeared after a long time using the beta 4.2. I thought the beta 5 would solve my problem somehow, but unfortunately did not...

Galaxy S7 Edge Gold No Sound

I am facing a problem with my new Galaxy S7 Edge gold where the sound suddenly disappears. (up to 5 times a day)
No Sound at all (notification, earphones , phone ringing, even if i answer the phone i cant hear a thing)
When i close all apps it goes back to normal (yet there is no specific app that when i close it by itself would solve the problem)
Have anyone faced such problem ? should i replace the phone on the warranty although its not a physical problem ?
Please HELP!
If this happened to me and Its not rooted, I wouldnt think twice getting it exchanged.
Did you turn up the volume

Here the same problem i have the S7 edge version. The last day's i lost all my sounds from ringing the phone till music the clock alarm. When i started the phone up again it's gone but for how long tihis is the third time in two day's. I put the latest rom on my phone now from Engeland. But on the forum's i see this problem more times. I hope there will be a solution.
I had this happem to me for the first time last night. Did a reboot and my sound came back. So far it has been working fine.. just hoping that it stays this way.

Having same issue. A reboot fixes it. I noticed that it only happens after a single app I use. In this case a certain game. It is only that app that mutes the sound on the phone. Doesnt happen at any other time. I dont play the game often so its not a big deal for me. No issues with sound otherwise. I have the Gold (FD) version.

I looking also to another forums there also problems but till now no solutions.. Also i take the last new rom on Sammobile

Same issue here, with the F version. I have a certain game that won't release control on the sound. If I already have music playing when I start the game, it keeps going, but once the music app stops for long enough to give up the speaker, the game gloms on, and has to be manually killed to enable anything else to grab the sound. Works against headphones or speakers.
I theorize that this is Game Center related, since my s6 with 6.0.1 and the very same game does NOT have this issue.

Dokkan Battle - the funny thing to me is that I have both BGM and effect sounds OFF.
in my case i found out that a game on my phone called "Diamond Dash" is causing this issue. and it never happened to me again after uninstalling it.
but from what you guys say i see that the Galaxy S7 Edge is facing the same problem with some other games too
hope they will find a fix soon.
I had the same problem until I flashed a different Stock Firmware (Build G935FXXU1APC8)... No problems since thankfully

I do this to but for me the problen is still there with the new firmware. I have it wit real racing 3 but sometimes i lost all the sounds and somethimes not. Very strange, but i was already 1 time to late on my work because i not here the alarm. So the problem is that i not thust my phone on this moment.
My problem is when I have silence on I still hear notifications so I use Do not disturb. I think I've had other sounds issues but I restart my phone every morning so maybe that helps.

Will make a test and see if it continues to happen after playing.
Let's keep updated.

External speaker fades in and out

I have had this issue for quite a while now and it is getting really annoying. When using the external speaker (watching Youtube, Twitch, games, etc) it will fade out and back in frequently. Lately it seems more often than not it will be silent. This only happens with external speaker and does not happen with headphones or bluetooth. I don't think it is a hardware issue because the audio seems to fade out and back in rather than cutting out. Also I can usually press the Overview button and switch between apps a few times and it comes back. Also I have never experienced it while using speakerphone on a call.
Has anyone run into this before? Any ideas on what it could be? I don't think Logcat will work without root or I would dig into the logs.

Omg I've got exactly the same issue, finally someone talk about it !
Since nobody has any ideas, what apps do you have installed @Kev Lav? Maybe we can narrow it down to a common app or something. I really don't think it is an app though because as I mentioned it only happens when audio is on the external speakers. Sometimes days go by and the issue doesn't happen, sometimes it happens constantly for a day or 2. Pretty annoying.
Yeah I don't think that it comes from an app, but yeah it's so annoying, maybe I'll reset my phone but I'm too lazy to back up all my files actually haha.
yooooooooo ive had the same problem any fixes?
Hey guys ! I think that I found a fix, last night, I was partying in a hot tub and I was with my phone, I took several videos underwater and now my external speaker works great again ! You should try to put your phone underwater for 2 minutes !

Uhhh, I think I will pass on that. Thanks though. I have it go for weeks sometimes without the issue happening. Then it will go through phases where it happens a few times a day. Sometimes a reboot will get it back to a state where it happens infrequently. So that is my go to for now. Still extremely annoying. I wish Catlog or something like that would work on this phone so that I could look at the internal logs to see what is going on when it happens. Does anyone know if there is anyway to look at system logs?
