Hi Guys, my first post! I'm having a troubles with my Blade. The rotating sensor axys isn't working, to be honest it never been working, even with the stock rom. I'm now running Cyano Gingerbread 7 and the situation looks always the same. Tried to switch the button on the menu off/on many times and tried also to move fast the phone in my hands... There is a way to check it? Somebody haves the service manual of the Blade, or help me in some way.
Thanks in Advance.
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
Hello users. I am not a noob neither am I an expert. I am unable to post on the actual thread due to new account restrictions however I have a huge bug with this rom which I do not understand how other users are not experiencing same issues..
CAMERA???
It works perfectly fine when I newly flashed but after a little while the buttons at the bottom stop working, it force stops when i zoom to take a picture.. Help anyone? Thanks.
And boi it's annoying. For Alarms and and Calls the system simply stops all audio.
To put the long story short; an error happens at a moment be it double disable audio or simply unable to use the driver or similar. It doesn't happen at any exact moment, it can happen at random. And it's really annoying. Like I said, music players stop working, alarms don't work (vibration does tho), you can make nor answer calls.
I honestly thought this was done via Amplify or Greenify or something, then moving to other roms, it kept happening and thus I decided to post it here. I have logcats if needed.
In my case; last few occurrences went off with a lag, trying to navigate and seemingly freezing for about 2-3 minutes and then the audio crash. sadly didnt log that one.
bump?

This won't be of much help but I haven't experienced any audio issues with any ROM yet.
Do you have any utilities such as V4A or AFX installed? Do you have a custom kernel with sound control installed? Also, if you're on Vegito audio may crash while the phone is off as Vegito will unplug all cores but one when idle.
There was a featured XDA thread about enabling high-perf mode for Qualcomm DACs too... it simply sets it to maximum power at all times to the DAC, reducing audio startup delay. Worked fine on my G4 with Magisk, but ymmv.
I do not have any mods installed. And have the ROM kenrel (In this case AOSIP)
I have some catlogs if needed @[email protected] However, mind letting me know of this featured thread? sorry for the ridiculously late reply, I thought I had replied the same day.
Hello All,
My first post but I've been lurking the forums for some time. Always finding answers to my questions. Thank you all for that!
With the S8 being so new I'm not sure if anyone else has had these issues, and only found one subject that was close but not my issue. On to the goodness and question I have.... I have a 2016 Chevy Camaro and use the Android Auto on my S8 (used to be S7 Edge) to listen to Spotify mostly. With the update to the S8 it isn't allowing me to access Spotify under double tapping the music icon. Anyone else Having this issue?
So far I've tried removing all the apps, and starting with a fresh install of both.
I've tried multiple data cables connected to the car/phone.
I have also noticed that when Android Auto is turned on it doesn't allow you home button out of it. I used to be able to use the home button after hitting my minimize app button to get to my home screen. Allowing me to access other applications, or texting. I know shame on me texting in the car but not using the car to do it.
Let me know if there are any suggestions or fixes for these issues. I would expect that since the phone is so new there will be updates to fix it but I'm honestly thinking of going back to my S7E. However I was excited to have the S8. It's a pretty solid phone!
Having a similar issue with my Audi Q7. I had a Galaxy S6 and used Spotify under Android Auto. Now when I click on the little headphone icon I get play music instead. I can play Spotify using bluetooth audio but no longer get any track information or control over the app from the car controls.

OK, just as an update in case it helps @EnCincy or anyone with the same problem I got Spotify working again. Fully uninstalled both Spotify and Android Auto on the phone then reinstalled them again. I did Spotify first but not sure if it matters. When I went back to the car I had a choice of either Spotify or Play Music.
Thanks cheesy. After a few deletes of the app and reinstall it works. Sometimes it tells me Spotify isn't working and has a spinning icon. I have to restart the phone and car to remedy. This has been happening since android 7 came out to update on my devices. S7Edge before and now the S8
Ahh you can count on the forums to inform you of an issue you thought you were dealing with alone, I've also got the issue intermittently but a restart tends to help. I wasn't sure if maybe a disabled package is to blame when using Package Disabler
Same here - an unistall and reinstall worked.
Spotify works fine for me with my Hyundai head unit. If you use Smart Switch to move your apps over you have to uninstall and reinstall any apps Android Auto works with. Make sure AA is installed first before any apps that it allows access to.
Didn't work for me, none of my music apps are working on Android Auto, this worked on my LG V10, but doesnt work on the GS8+
Had the same problem with Audible and Pocketcast, uninstalled and reinstalled both and they showed up
This fixed my Pandora issue as well. Thanks guys!
I haven't run any of the updates yet on the S8 , no problems with android auto or any of the music apps.
Since its happening across various devices I'm wondering if it was the update the was pushed out a few days ago.

I'm testing this now to see it if helps getting other music apps to work again in AA.
Also the 2nd part of the OP question was how to get out of AA on your like like you could on other galaxy variants? I'm looking for an answer to that as well.
Uninstall/reinstall worked for me. Then was having the spotify unable to start issue from time to time... restarting the phone would fix it each time but that was annoying. Turned off the music controller under the lock screen facewidgets settings and haven't had the problem since! It's only been a couple days but....

I still haven't figured out the way to get out of AA while the cord is hooked up to the car. Please share if you do. I also join an AA forum and posted. No responses yet!

Thanks. I will try the music controller being turned off.
Just to quickly help anyone with the unable to minimise thing, download a bixby button remapper and remap it to the multitask feature and you'll have the same functionality like on the phones with hardware buttons

This worked on my S8 too. Used Samsung Smart Switch (hopeless) to get everything across from S6 and Android Auto would not 'see' Pandora, Spotify or TuneIn. Uninstalled all music apps and Android Auto and then installed, selecting AA last. Works now.

Posted this in AA section, some here may find useful.
Do not use this as a way to use your phone while driving. I put this here so a passenger can safely control a phone.
On the S8/S8+ enable your edge bar and install Soft Key egde. A few other settings in The main android settings > advanced features > Multi window > both options enabled.
Generally the apps should be running before you start android auto and connect to car, from there you can use edge bar soft keys to access recent programs. Split screen or pop up multi windows can be opened and used while android auto continues to run on head unit.
I'd post SS but now allowed yet
What head units are you guys using? I have a Kenwood DDX-9703S and have had no issues with android auto.
