Hi all,
It seems as if this is one of those eternal questions that nobody can answer completely. I just cant get the music player (either LG Music player or Google play music) to stop autoplaying when i connect to the bluetooth in my car. I called Verizon and LG and neither of them have a solution. I figured this forum was the next good bet to either have a solution or a workaround. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated for this annoyance.
Thanks!
I used greenify's "cut off" feature and that seems to have worked. I haven't noticed any side effects yet but I don't use the music player that much

Androids retarded handling of the bluetooth remote control profile is really getting on my nerves.
No matter what application I have open and want my BT-headset to control, it always defaults to the standard music player.
Is there any way to make it control Spotify, Acast, Droidlive, etc. instead?
Sorry no answer for you but just wanted to say I have exaactly the same problem and just came on here to ask if anyone knew anything about.
Also, do you have any stutter when using A2DP? I'm using a Sony in-car stereo and spotify stutters every ~10 seconds. Doesn't happen using aux in. Haven't tried A2DP using the built in music player rather than spotify though.
@HTC - Please either let us specify which app receives the AVRCP commands or just automatically route it to the currently playing app.

I've found that stutter was caused by having wifi turned on. Switching it off fixed everything.
I've installed an app called Y5 that is supposed to automatically switch off wifi if i'm somewhere i haven't used it before, which is everywhere but my house. If I need it, i'll turn it on manually.
Below is the response I got from HTC when I enquired about the crappy AVRCP:
No. At this time, AVRCP only works with the HTC Palyer. The G1 worked differently as it did not have touchflo and used the base android rom instead.
i will report this to the developers, but i do not know if or when they will fix it, as they obviously already have priorities for adding/removing/updating the ROMs.
best regards,

So that's that then. Fail.
Is there anything that can be done by other developers?
Or if enough people want it, force HTC to look into extending AVRPC to other apps?
whoops, double post!

I dunno about the apps you mention but I use TuneWiki and it has an option to "Enable Headset Button" When this option is on it responds to the AVRCP buttons and the standard music app does not.
I can assure you that what declanshanaghy says is not true. declanshanaghy obviously does not understand the problem here. It's not that an installed app will fail to respond to AVRCP signals and instead the Andriod "default app" will, rather it's that on the HTC Hero the "default app" is not the Android "default app" rather a specialized HTC music player that intercepts and steals the AVRCP controls from any other app playing media. This includes this TuneWiki app too. I know, I just downloaded it and tried it and it fails miserably. I can play one song with TuneWiki, then hit Play on my Bluetooth headset and the HTC music player will play a second song resulting in two songs playing at the same time.
HTC did this on their WinMo phones too but Conduit's PocketPlayer managed to figure out how to fix HTC's silly mistake. Unfortunately Conduits PocketPlayer doesn't run on Android.
I'm looking for a good podcatcher/media player that can get around the HTC problem and that properly responds to AVRCP controls. Anybody know of one?
hi..
I also dont like this.. how.. my BlueTooth Stereo headset can not control the current player I am using...
I wish there is a way.. to get control over our music!!!
1.. able to use our music with our bluetooth devices..
2.. better EQ / any EQ for better music enjoyment
My android 2.0(1) Milestone never had any problem with this. I use spotify with my wonderful Philips SHB9000 without a hitch. Oh and Milestone got an equlizer now (2.0.1), though it don't work with bluetooth. Shame, I want slightly louder bass.
just in case anyone is bothered by this issue also. I found a ghetto work around.
I moved all my music on my sdcard to /sdcard/.mp3 (the default music player doesn't search . folders)
then I install mortplayer and this "headset button fix" program and now my headset only controls mortplayer. Although I think it tries to control the default music player but since there is no media in the library it doesn't have anything to do.
took me a while to get it working just right but I couldn't use the default player anymore. I was getting that studdering effect others mentioned but not with mortplayer
I have the same problem .... I use Meridian .. can not uninstall
player default?
Hey guys this is Jona developer for DroidLive. I want to include Bluetooth support. Please any ideas feedback how you like it to work please let me know
I use the "headset button fix" app available on the market and it works fine for me with mixzing and tunewiki.
My bt headset is a Motorola s9.

WIFI is one cause of stuttering. I found that I get stuttering whenever I'm listening to A2DP with WiFi on and I come in range of an access point that it tries to connect to.
HOWEVER, it is not the only time stuttering happens! Often, I get stuttering on my HTC EVO when i first pair with A2DP even though the WIFI is off. I have to exit out of the audio app (Stitcher Radio) and then relaunch it OR skip to the next track in the playliest and it stops the stuttering, So, there is another issue that needs to be fixed because those workarounds should not be needed.

Thanks for the info on the stutter problem. I was actually looking for an app that would remote control my car stereo but the stuttering issue was something that was on the back burner.
Hi there,
i have an annoying behaviour on my HD2 when connecting to headset, bt a2dp and so on. I just find some articles with the same problem in the nexus forum, so i start this new thread.
If ever i plugin my headset, the sense musictab opens and with a delay of 5-10 seconds it begins to play. this is really annoying, because i hear my music and books with mortplayer. when inserting headset, after the delay, i hear my mortplayer music and the music which is loaded in my sense tab. so everytime i have to go to sensetab manually and stop playing music.
i can reproduce the same behaviour when connecting to my bt-caraudio (parrot). everytime when a2dp is connected, the music starts to play. also, i have this issue with my motorola s9 bt-headset.
does anyone have the same issue or perhaps solved this problem ?
best regards, chris
Disable the sense music tab as it seems you're not using it...
i tried this too, but then wmplayer is coming in front and wants to play.
is it wanted from htc, that everytime someone connects the earplug the music starts ? sometimes i just want to connect my earplugs while driving with my bike to answer calls. i have no intent to hear music in this situation
Hmm, doesn't do this for me. What ROM are you using?
It does so when I set S2P to do it, but not otherwise...
i use artemis 6.0 with the newset radio (9) i think. i reflashed the rom in the last minutes, so i will check if it is something with the settings i made in the last days
Hi all,
sorry to dig out such an old thread, but felt it was better then starting e new one on the same matter.
I have the same problem with my HD2 with Artemis 14 (WM6.5.5). When I connect to car kit using bluetooth. And randomly also sometime when plugging the headset, music starts palying automaticaly.
Very annoying, especially since I don't use Sense's tab as a player.
Any one found a fix / setting on this ??
thanks
I am not really sure where this question goes or where my problem lies, but here is the gist of things. I am an avid audible listener (audio books) and I don't use my phone for music. Oftentimes when I get in my car (ford sync system) it will start audible and resume playback of my audio book. Other times, it will start the default music player, which I don't even have any music loaded on the phone and don't use the player. Is there a way to disable the music player without effecting the rest of the phone's capabilities, or to make it to where it will always default to the Audible player? Also, sometimes when i get in the car, it will start the audible player, but I get no audio until I disable Bluetooth and re-enable it. I have recently installed fission rom but the problem was the same with the stock rom.
Droid 2 Andriod 2.2.1 using Fission_2.5.7_BE_DROID2
Bluetooth is a 2010 Ford w/ sync system
Any Help?
Ok, since no one here seems to have an answer, any suggestions on where else I could post this question?

In the Fission thread as it could be a ROM issue. I had some trouble with audio with my stereo bluetooth headset but I thought it was just the headset because it's two years old.
I have my N4 Bluetooth set up to my car. When I start my car, and Bluetooth kicks in, Google Music automatically starts playing songs. I don't listen to music via Bluetooth, but my device is sending the signal, evidently. I've tried to find a way to keep Google Music from automatically doing this when Bluetooth connects, but cannot find anything. Any ideas?

I'm looking for a way to make mine do what yours is doing. I'm on a Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.2.2 and just want my music to start automatically when I get into my car instead of having to unlock phone, fire up google music, and hit shuffle all every time I get in. There are a couple apps that will launch Play Music but the music doesn't start playing. I need to try hitting NEXT on my car stereo and see if it makes it start playing.
I used to get ambushed with music automatically starting a couple of phones ago so I wound up using Tasker to simulate media button presses.
That sorted it for me and may be worth a try for both of you.
I think it's dependent upon your car. I've got Ford with Sync and buried somewhere in the menus is a bluetooth "autoplay" option - try disabling that (or enabling... depending on what you're looking for, of course)
My N4 does this in my Mazda 3. I absolutely HATE it. Any luck on a solution?
Like previous poster said, disable autoplay feature in car's bluetooth settings
I don't have that option on my car.

This is not true. I have this happen with my Nexus 4 on stock 4.3 in THREE separate cars.
Is there seriously no solution to this? Does anybody even have any idea what causes this problem?
For me, its Fusion music player. But if I uninstall that, then it defaults to Google Music.
Hi everyone,
I have seen a few threads for other phones, but could not find a solution for the problem I have...
When I get in my car the phones connects to Bluetooth (which is perfectly fine), but it also automatically starts the music player. And that's the problem - I don't use music player (stream music instead) and I don't need it to start the player with only one track there...
I went through each and every setting in the phone menu as well as in Music player menu - I could not find any settings to turn this freakingly annoying feature off...
Have anyone been able to switch this thing off? Any advice is appreciated!
