Audio plays through speakers when aux cable connected - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My dad died and I'm trying to save a voicemail that he left me before he passed. When I connect the aux cable to the line in on my pc the sound isn't switching over. If I connect the aux cable to my car or a portable speaker the sound on my phone will play through the aux cable just fine.
Worst case, I know that I can play the VM through speaker phone and use another phone to record but I'd rather record from the source through my pc.
I've tried this with another S5 and it has the sane problem as well as an NVidia shield tablet. Seems like android devices don't like to play through aux cable when it's connected to a pc. Just to also rule out the aux cable being a problem, I connected the same aux to my windows phone and it was able to play audio through the aux cable so I could record it on my pc.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

"ACR Call Recorder " or another non root call recorder might help. I've used them in the past without root successfully.

Remembered about this thread when I came across this setting in Developer Options just now

Question for the experts?

Hi there experts and non-experts I've got a question,
maybe simple for you guys but not for me so here it goes.
I've got the following Logitech Wireless Headphones:

I connect to my computer through bluetooth stick so I thought that I could connect with my telephone for listening to music or watching youtube. WOULD BE GREAT, because I am sick of the wires.
It works! but how? well I have to lookup my headphones EVERYTIME I want to listen to it, I have to find my headphones again and add it, and it doesnt work everytime. I am getting sick since it costs about 2 or 3 minutes. -_-"
Is there some sort of program wich let me connect with a certain bluetooth device? since my headset is only waiting for my USB BLUETOOTH not for my phone.
Hope someone knows an answer or something! =$
Greetings,
tjeM
BUMP!
Another thing was that my youtube starts lagging/shocking when I use my wireless headphones, really weird?
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks,
tjeM.
you need to pair the headphones with your Touch HD, not with your computer.
Obviously, the headphones do not support more than 1 paired device.

Not so weird. A2DP coding takes some resource. And if you had tweaked the device for better A2DP audio quality it could have this effect. It was really bad on HTC TyTN and got better on the Diamond/HD.

Audio from Micro USB?

I was wondering if anybody knows for sure if the Micro USB port on the Nexus supports audio. I'm trying to find a single cable solution to charging the phone and listening to music in my car w/o resorting to bluetooth. I found this adapter on Amazon but:
a. It doesn't allow me to charge the unit
b. I don't know if the Nexus even supports audio through the USB
I spoke to a rep @ Google Tech Support and after some research he came back and said that it does but he didn't sound to sure of himself. I called HTC Tech Support and they were clueless and transferred me to accessories. Anyone have any idea if it supports audio, and if so, any 2-in-1 adapters out there so I can get at it (micro usb to 3.5mm jack + micro usb).
I asked this question in 2 other forums a couple days ago and so far nobody seems to know for sure.
If you're willing to wait i can let you know for sure tomorrow.
I have one of those adapters but its mini-usb, not micro. However, my friend has a mini to micro adapter so i can test it out tomorrow and let you know if you want.
I have been wondering the same thing for my car setup. Would be great to know.
Thanks!
Didn't work.
I'm not sure if it's because i used an adapter or not but when i tried everything went through the speakers like normal
I have the exact Moto adapter above (SYN2112A). I tried it and got nothing, music from the external speaker as normal. I cracked it open and found alot more electronics than I had hoped. I don't know what this adapter originally did, but it was not a simple way to route an unused microUSB pin as an audio stream.

[Q] AUX Playback Volume coming from phone is randomly low (but not always)

Gentlemen,
My friend has an original, unrooted S4.
I am waiting for the exact model number, but I believe it's the i9500.
She mentioned that when she plays music from her phone to her car stereo, the volume is often (but not always) low, and yes, phone volume is cranked up all the way.
When this happens, she has to raise the car stereo volume considerably in order to be able to listen.
So far, she's tried two different cables. Also, she's currently driving a dealer issued loaner and observed the same issue.
I've read the S4 FAQ and performed a Search. I couldn't find anything.
Have you guys ever heard of a similar issue with the S4?
Thank you in advance.
...anyone?

OMGGG HAHAHAHAHAHAH
but did you try to install wanam xposed and then you go to Sound and there you can change some sound things, I'll screenshot it.
I don't know if it would work but you could try, and try to download a other music player.

S10 no longer connecting to AA or other external devices

Hello All -
I've been using Android Auto with my S10+ with no issues since it was new. It has always been connected via USB in my car. But as of a few days ago, it will no longer connect. When I plug it in now, I'll get a notification saying 'Android Auto is connecting...' and then it will show 'Can't connect to car screen.'
I've also discovered that I can no longer plug the phone into my USB-C to HDMI adapter to mirror onto a TV. It's not a Samsung adapter, but it's worked perfectly until now. When I plug it in now, I see a notification saying 'The connected USB device isn't supported.'
The phone charges just fine, and my Windows computer will recognize it when connected. It just won't seem to connect to any other kind of external device or screen.
The only change to the phone just before this was a security patch that I downloaded a few days prior. But I haven't been able to find any others having problems with it. Here is my phone's software info:

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Some things I've tried so far:
- Tried a different cable.
- Connected another phone with AA in my car and it connected just fine.
- Deleted all cars in AA, reinstalled.
- Disabled Chrome (due to reports of Chrome causing issues on some phones).
- Cleared USB Settings cache and data.
Any suggestions for this frustrating problem are greatly appreciated!

Headunit not outputting sound through the iso connection.

Hi! I bought a headunit recently and when I fitted it in my car (a Peugeot 107) everything worked well besides the audio. When I put the key in and turn it just to power the headunit, the sound works as expected, but the moment I start the car, the sound is gone, nothing sound-related works. Sometimes when I hit the little "RST" button with the engine on, the sound comes back, but that's not the case every time. I tried looking into the settings, even in the factory settings, I tried looking through all the options, but I didn't find anything.
The unit is connected to my car just through a normal iso port, which has the cables for both the power and the speakers (I do not have any rca cables in my car):

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
My theory is that this is a software problem and it pushes the audio through the rca connectors instead of the iso one. This is the only thing that makes sense to me since a complete reboot of the device seems to more or less solve the issue temporarily. As a workaround, I thought that maybe there's an adaptor to convert my speakers to rca and plug them in that way, but I couldn't really find something that would work.
I am not sure what model do I have since there's nothing on the box that would tell me, but I made some photos of the specs so I hope that's enough to somewhat identify it:
This issue drives me mad to be honest, especially because everything else works fine.
Thank you!
