Alexa and music work on AFTV1 with the TV turned OFF - Fire TV General

Has anyone else tried this?
I decided to update my 2nd rooted AFTV1 to OS 5. This box has been on the shelf for a while and missed many updates anyway.
I had to enable updates and restore stock recovery.
It ran 2 updates and the 2nd was OS 5. So far it works good.
I just found that my bluetooth headphones or speaker work great and it keeps the box awake so music and Alexa work even with the TV turned OFF.
USB flash drives work good too.
I'm not sure about restoring root yet. I may not want/need to.

Screen Mirroring hardware issue

I had rooted prior to lollipop but when i flashed 5.0 I did a full wipe and went back to 100% stock. today I tried to use screen mirroring and kept getting "unable to start screen mirroring because of a hardware issue" , after a quick google search it looks like Sammy disables screen mirroring on modified systems even though I was no longer rooted.
Long story short I ended up rooting again and edited the build.prop file and added "wlan.wfd.hdcp=disable" at the end. This fixed miracast and it connects perfectly however the audio is out of sync on the TV. I know there is a slight delay between the phone and TV with the TV being behind a bit but would be in sync with the audio. Now it seems the audio is in sync with the phone and ahead on the TV.
Anyway to fix this?
bump?

Audio randomly cutting out S7 edge

I am experiencing random cut outs of audio during media playback through the speaker. Bluetooth and headset working fine. Notifications and other sounds working fine. Mainly during video playback, streaming and video stored on device, the sound plays for a few seconds then cuts out. I didn't have this issue before the most recent OTA update. I have tried factory resets, rebooting, wiping cache, even custom roms. Does anyone else have this issue? What is the solution?
I have the same issue as you. GS7 Edge Verizon. I can't find any solutions out there yet :crying:
Same issue. The only thing that I can add is that when the speaker cuts out, if I switch to phone, make a call, and then put the call on speakerphone, then hang up, the problem is fixed for a few minutes.
Does anyone have a solution for this? Surely its a common issue. Unless my phone is on charge I can't use apps like spotify, listen to podcasts or radio unless I keep the screen on.
Any luck?
I have the issue on a sm-g930F. Samsung support just says i should send them my device but thats not my plan. I called them and sayed i want a update of the firmware but they refused me and just sayed i have to send it to them because they can not make a update without my device is seen. I really hope someone sends his device to them that we can get a new firmware . Iam on android 7.0 official samsung update but this bug is in 6.0 the same .
Anyways i need a soöution for this. Its a softwarebug i know, because nexus 6p users and nexus 5 users expirienced the same ****in error. Please help out.!!!
I was experiencing audio pause or stopping after an OTA upgrade to Nougat on my stock S7 Edge Duo (G935FD), when using Pocket Casts podcast app to play files stored locally on internal memory. This seemed to happen primarily when using wired headphones or bluetooth speaker, and some minutes after the phone screen turned off.
I tried wiping the app cache, reinstalling the app, wiping phone cache, full phone wipe, reinstall stock Nougat via ODIN, TWRP & rooting phone, disabling Samsung App Power Saving via Titanium Backup (com.samsung.android.sm / com.samsung.android.devicesecurity). Only when I booted into SAFE MODE did the problem go away. So I used TB to disable pretty much everything I could recognise as an app I had installed.
Eventually, after much tinkering I seem to have narrowed it down to some combination of Quick Connect, Google Chrome and Android System Webview. I have disabled QC and Chrome and I no longer have any audio issues. When I unfreeze/freeze Chrome or Android System Webview I get an audio issue as the app freezes/unfreezes.
I had same problem and ı thought this problem can be related to an app ı installed. And it was. When i uninstalled Sputnik news. My problem had gone. If u have it, uninstal. If u dont have, may be one of other app causes. Try uninstalling each app, and find the app causes this problem

Help me with my issue regarding internal audio recognition

Hello guys,
I've recently bought this phone Motorola Moto g4 Plus and everything was fine. Until 1 day I cloned my old phone's apps into new one.
I had Sony's TrackID, which I use to search for tracks that were playing on radio. Even in this phone it worked great with external speakers. But when I plugged in earphones, it couldn't recognize a single track. Instead it popped up an error stating that it cannot hear any audio.
Since then I've tried Shazam, SoundHound, etc. These apps work great through my speakers. But fail every time when I plug in my earphones. Same error pops up saying there's no audio. Hoping for a solution from XDA.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. - I've tried reinstalling all the apps (Shazam, SoundHound). My phone's running on latest android build, Marshmallow 6.0.1
My phone is not rooted. I don't want to root it as I already use a rooted phone.
Have you get it fixed? I've been having the same issue

No Audio Output from 6P

Hey guys! I am not able to listen to music or open youtube videos or even do anything related to output of audio of my phone. On Google play music, I get "Couldnt pay tax requested" and on youtube I get playback error. I am not able to make calls as well.
I have flashed numerous images and the issue still persists. If anyone could guide me towards the right direction that would be great.
I bought the phone 7 months ago and suddenly this incident took place. I was running stock 7.1.2 when this happened by the way
Thank you for the help.
First of all, 7.1.2 is a Beta stage not a release.
Second, If you can have sounds on other options such as ringtones and so on, then it is an OS issue and a clean flash might solve it.

Thank you for the reply.
No sound from Ringtone as well. Like no audio is playing on my phone at the moment.

So how can you tell if it isn't a hardware issue and not Android problem?
I haven't heard of what you are describing as being a known bug in 7.1.2. You can try a factory restore but personally I would do a clean flash of the latest stable Google image and see if it fixes your problem. And I would use the flash-all.bat command like Google suggests rather than flash all the parts individually like the Heisenberg guide on XDA tells you to do. I don't suppose you are running any audio mods on your phone? And you checked the obvious? Your phone isn't in Airplane Mode, Do Not Disturb isn't activated, sound shows the various volume levels aren't at 0?
Having same issue, no audio at all from speakers, cant play youtube / googleplay music or videos, headphone jack does not work eighter, wont even detect the headphones, soft reset/ hard reset wont work, havent tryed out rooting and changing rom or reverting from 8.0 (currently running), apart form audio everything works fine, im still trying to figure out warranty as its still in its period, but without proof of purchase they are beeing jerks so far, so im rooted with some ideas is ive had previous experiences with phones, might it be possible for audio drivers to go missing or messed up? or should i take it to a repair shop and see how much theyll ask for it? or shuld i just upgrade to something better and let this brave hero die alone, maybe use as hotspot in my car haha

November update

What is going on with the most recent update ?
I use my Nexus player with hd home run prime for tv for 2 years now .
Since the latest update , I constantly have to rescan my channels , Everytime I turn my tv on again it prompts me to rescan for channels .
It beyond annoying !
I've never been prompted to re-scan channels. The November update is working just like the other Oreo updates. Do you have any weird apps running in the background?
Youtube turning back on navigation sounds, when there was zero need to even put the option in, there is a perfectly good global setting, that Youtube ignores.
Oh and the joy of uninstalling Mubi, Sky, Netflx which is annoying enough. But don't put up what looks like a way to deselect them for, well I can't work it out for you not to be able.
And yeah sitnlow4life wish they'd left the updates alone for the benefit they have brought
