Hi, everyone
I have one I9500 and it was working perfectly until the beginning of Aug.
The audio has been shuttered all the time, no matter playing music or video. (it pauses for about 0.1 second and continue, very annoying)...
I found it's fine if Mobile Network is disabled, at least for my 3-hours test today it's OK. As soon as the Mobile network is enabled, it begins..
My phone was bought in China, and I'm still using it in China.
I'm on latest CHN firmware MG1. It happens no matter it's rooted or not...
I've tried factory reset and emergency recovery in Kies and it's still not working.
Anyone has any ideas about this?
Thanks!
Update:
I found the audio is shuttering if WIFI is connected...
So in this case, connecting to either WIFI or Mobile network will make the audio(both music player and video player) shutters...

Hi all,
Wonder if anyone has experienced this. My Touch HD (stock Orange ROM) is really jerky when playing Youtube videos through the client over Wifi, but fine over a 3g connection..
The Wifi connection is plenty fast enough, the Mrs has an iPhone, which works fine.
Anyone got any idea what I can check? I've made sure everything is turned off.. bluetooth etc..
stuck!
thanks

Hi, easy one this :0) Go to the settings tab select communications, in the bottom right tap settings, then tap wireless lan. Once there select the power mode tab then move slide all the way to the left for best performance. Always works for me, hope it does for you :0)
Sadly not mate, already tried that!
OK so this is REALLY weird. If I have nothing else downloading at home, and the youtube player is downloading it's jerky.
If I start a download going on my laptop (usenet - canes my connection) then what HAS buffered on my Touch HD plays fine. The moment I stop the download, it starts to be jerky again.
Almost seems like the throughput to the phone is killing it somehow, weird! have tried all sorts of settings on my router, but no dice.
Really stuck as to what to try next :/
Must admit until buffering is complete, I too get slightly jerky playback. Although this has always been the case with every Windows Mobile device I've had. Sorry I can't help you anymore m8
:0( Good luck with it.
Background downloading slows the device down, so it cant play the video smoothly. Go to youtube app settings and turn video playback quality to fast download. That helps, but the quality is awful.
I use the high quality, and just wait the video to finish downloading.
It's not just the fact that it's downloading in the background because it's doing that over 3g but plays fine, it's something specific to Wifi.
It's also not just slightly jerky, it's REALLY bad.
I mean.. I've watched plenty of reviews of this device where they've streamed youtube over wifiand it.screen fine..
I wonder if upgrading the radio would help? or is the wifi stuff done by the rom?
Worth a try, my HD works much better with new radio 1.10.25.25 + Custom rom Black Pearl 1.7 lite.
will have to give that a try then. The stock Orange rom is good apart from that but a bit slow.
Just finding picking one to flash to a touch daunting, too much choice!
OK, so I downloaded and flashed to panosha Black Pearl v2.1 HD ROM.
Works fine, is VERY nice and fast Also updated my radio version to 1.12.25.16 but the Youtube thing is still there!!!
I'm going to try it on someone else's wifi connection as soon as I can, but for now, anyone got a clue?!?
OK, I've tried three different roms, and even tried two other wifi networks- same problem.
The device is generally slower when connected to a wifi network, not just youtube. I guess it's just more noticeable when playing YT videos.
Really lost now ;(
Could be that once you are connected on WIFI the youtube player automatically selects the best quality video for you to view, increasing system requirements.
At the same time as trying to view the higher quality video the WIFI also uses a fair bit of CPU power. Try downloading a file on WIFI with everything else closed and you'll notice your device is a lot less responsive until the download is completed.
Only a guess though.
Well of course, but you'd expect a device of this spec to be able to play it without stuttering all over the shop whilst nothing else is loaded...
Hi there = I've got the same bleedin problem!
I am on orange payg 3g, Dutty 2.1 extreme rom.
I never had the problem with the original (orange) total pants rom, but I've also updated the radio to 1.12 so perhaps it's an issue with the radio. Have you tried 1.13 the latest?
It's nowt to do with the youtube settings for sure, it's most definitely wi-fi related. I've noted the i-player mobile app is wildly out of sync on the audio too and never used to be that bad.
If anyone has any ideas or tweaks please let us know. thanks!
Maybe its because when you connect to wifi network it says that rx speed is 1mbps (it should be faster) and the real download speed is around 30 kb per second and i think that that is not enough for playing realtime high quality videos (needs buffering more often). When you set option to best performance that will just increase your transmit power and you will get better reception (but the speed still remains). Maybe that is the problem. Any solution on how to increase the RX speed?
Hi there, i am from singapore. I am also experiencing the same problem with the youtube client from the stock rom. i got mine from starhub! the video is jerky! need help!!
in the past couple of weeks, whenever i try to watch a youtube video using the 3g network, my hd2 would freeze and reboot itself after a few seconds. strangely, i can watch youtube for hours at a time with no problems if i use a wifi connection instead. does anyone else have this problem? i've already installed the latest firmware from the t-mobile website.
this only started to happen recently and nothing about my phone has changed. i've even done a factory reset so i can only think that the problem is somehow with the 3g network itself rather than my phone.
I've had the same issue since i bought the phone. using chucky ROM right now.
Hi
Since yesterday i can't do anymore voice call. Data is working as i can use my browser, market.. This is not an issue with my provider (same issue with other sim card). I have tried to flash the device with other combo pda/modem, with repartition or not... Issue still there... Any idea?
Thanks
Same problem. is it hardware or software issue?
Hardware, i am afraid...
Try with bluetoth handsfree device, and if this work you probaly have a microfon broken. Tke some thin I have with Galaxy s. They change me a microfon and LCD screen.
Same result.....
Are you using 2.3.4? (the XXKGx firmwares)?
If so, try installing an older (XXKFx) modem file. The KGx modems seem to do odd things in areas of low (3G) coverage.
I have tried old combo yet...
No idea except samsung center ?
Up. please...
Hey, ive had similar problems with audio, and the microphone, try plugging in the hands free that came with it, then play ome music, then while still playing unplug i, if it comes out of the external speakers, try making a call then see if it works, long shot, but give it a go.
thanks, i have tried but nothing new .... For the voice call i have this message "invalid sim or network issue" and for the data all is OK I and I can browse or receive emails ... This is the same issue will all the sim i have tried (from different providers )
Samsung has changed the antena of my SGS2 but the result is the same ! I hate samsung ....I have to send it back again ....
Hi,
I recently updated my phone to android 4.4.2. (official firmware KOT49.I9505XXUFNB9)
All went well, wifi works like it should, sms is good and calls too.
The problem i have is that my data connection (4g) is acting weird.
When i want to use my own connection on my phone like for Google play, facebook, games, web surfing, speedtest, ...., It all goes slow or does not connect at all.
But when i share this connection through USB and/or wifi hotspot there are no problems. Smooth as butter. No latency issues, timeouts, just as a 4G connection should be.
Thank you for helping and reading :good:
Thx for the 'help'.
Some news :
- Mobile connection goes from 4 bars to 1 if i switch from (WCDMA/GSM) to (LTE/WCDMA/GSM)
- Modem is good (flashed a few times, even other modem versions, but nothing works)
- I have a realy hard time to connect to any data network atm (3g and 4g).
- Modem and firmware version are the same as friends of mine (same country and provider) (Belgium, Mobistar)
- i had 4.2.2 before. Wanted to reinstall the firmware to get it all official again but the firmware was nowhere to be downloaded so i took a 4.4.2 and now everything is messed up.
The realy weird thing is that the data connection was the best at the standard 4.2.2 that was on the phone. Every other rom that i tried had a worse connection. (i tried ALOT of roms).
Dial *#1234# and attach screenshot.
Here you go.
Just attached a 2nd img from Samsung kies. Says (ORX). DOn't know what country that is, and i don't know what country code i sohuld take since belgium doesn't have its own code it seems. (Could this be the problem?)
Hi there
I have two M3s ... a Wifi-Version at home (everything works fine) and a LTE-Version im my car, which drives me crazy. Software version is BTV-DL09C100B307.
At work I park my car in a garage, where the connectivity switches down to EDGE. Leaving the garage, 4G is available but most of the time the M3 does not switch to LTE, but stays with EDGE. Even when disconneting mobile data or rebooting the device. Sometimes I get an LTE conncetion after 15 minutes driving, sometimes not till I'm home (what takes about 30 minutes). All this happen though 4G is available - I know this because I use a "double sim card" from my provider in the tablet and the second sim card is used for my phone (OPO5) which in these situations always is connected to 4G. I had the troubles already when being with the original EMUI 4. I did not get better when upgrading to EMUI 5.
The second issue is AndroidAuto. These troubles started with upgrading to EMUI 5. Since then the only music app that works it Google Music. When I try to open Spotify, Amazon Music or my preferred podcast app PodcastAddict under AndroidAuto an error message saying "xxx does not seem to work right now" (translated from german). When I start Spotify and then switch to AndroidAuto the music continuies playing, but still I do not get the AndroidAuto Interface for Spotify or any other music app than GoogleMusic. Since today morning also GoogleMaps stopped working under AndoidAuto. Whenever I click the navigation icon, the screen flashes and then the AndroidAuto home screen is show again.
Of course I had serveeral reboots, switching it completely off, update tries (OS itself as well as all apps) ... the troubles stay.
Does anyone have an idea what I could do?
