media scanner stops working - LG G6 Questions and Answers

On several occasion I've had the media scanner stop working on my LG G6, and when i sync new pics or music to my phone it won't show up in the gallery or music players till i reboot the phone. it's quite annoying. Is this a software bug? I've never noticed this problem with previous android phones. Is there a way to re-initiate the media scanner without rebooting the phone?

omg i have the same problem and i was about to post a thread talking about the same thing!
looks like it's a bug in the stock rom (one of many) and it's so annoying.

Thanks for the post. I am glad to know I'm not the only one with the problem. There's too many bugs for sure. I hope an update comes soon. But I'm on Verizon so it may be a few months.

[Q] Google Play Music broken after 4.4.2?

Hi!
Does anyone have problem with Google Play Music after the KitKat upgrade?
After the upgrade when i try to play a song, it gives me an error after a few minutes: "Music Playback error. Can't play the track you requested,"
I tried to remove the updates from Play Music, clear data from Play Music and Media Storage, nothing helped.
It happens on wifi and mobile connection too, and with the songs that i made to offline.
I haven't found a soultion on the forum.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks!
Sorry for my English.
That might be a result of Google releasing Google Music in your country. Have you registered your account through a proxy before?
If so, you probably have playlists with tracks that is not available in your region that your account now is associated with. Try search for the songs again and see if you can play it from there.

Thanks for the tip. Play Music All Access released a half year ago, and before I didn't used a proxy to use the service. On 4.2.2 it worked well. Only on KitKat is this problem. I'll try to fix the update errors from the PC Suite, and a hard reset. I'll reply about it's success.

I had the same problem on 4.2, in my case clearing data uninstalling installing helped though... or it got fixed few days later... or I found a solution which I forgot.
I do realize that this won't help you much, just wanted to point out that it had nothing to do with the android version.
Also that the proxy stuff someone said is needed only to set it up... after that there is no need for any proxies. So I would say has nothing to do with it.
Also I am in a country that got play music just now and I had it since all access began... so again I think even that would not be a case.
I am a bit angry because in my country the all access is cheaper as in the US and I am not sure I can switch to the action price and if I will have the same songs as in US market...

Thanks for the information, i think it's not about the Android version too. I think LG made some changes, because on my Nexus 7 on stock 4.4.2 it works fine. I found some forums about this problem, but on the Optimus G model, and without a solution. So I think the problem is on LG's side. I wrote a mail to them about the problems after the update, and they replied they are working on to fix them. I hope they will fix this too.
Running out of things to try
I have had the exact same issue since updating to 4.4.2 on my LG G2. I had to reset the Google framework app to finally get the update after weeks of trying. So initially thought the error was due to that. So I factory reset my device & still get the errors.
I have tried clearing cache, data, uninstalling all updates to play music. Still the same problems.
Updated the play app & still no resolution.
When I'm on mobile data I get the error on every song I play. On Wi-Fi I can go 5 to 10 songs before the same error pops up.
I have contacted T-Mobile & they confirmed that a lot of users have reported this after the 4.4.2 update me not just with the G2 but also with the galaxy S4 & note 3 after updating to 4.4.2 as well. I told them all the trouble shooting I've done & they told me to contact Google to find a solution.
Google play music support was unaware of this issue & after running me through the same steps told me to contact LG
LG once again was unaware of the issue & tired running me thorough the same steps again. Their conclusion was that my phone/the app was having trouble communicating with the Google servers. & directed me back to Google or T-Mobile.
So it's really frustrating since 4.4.2 has fixed a lot of my other issues (GPS, Bluetooth meta data, etc) but has given me a different & so far solution-less problem. :banghead:
My wife's G2 is doing this as well.
I did dig up a thread from Android Central from last year where some people suspected some process needed for their Chromecast was somehow interfering.
Just curious, how many of you with this issue also have a Chromecast?

I have a couple of Chromecasts. Before the 4.4.2 update my G2 would not cast a full song or two onto the Chromecast. But after the update it's the other way around. It will cast fine with no errors but won't play a full song on my phone.
Did you know what about the Chromecast was causing this issue? Was it the Chromecast app?
---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 PM ----------
I tested out a couple of scenarios for at least playing songs that were cached on the device.
Had the same problems with data turned on & off. & even in airplane mode.
The only time it played without the playback error was when I took the SIM card out. It's a bit strange I know, but I'm going to see if maybe getting a different SIM card form T-Mobile does anything to this issue.

No, I had just find a whole bunch of other threads for different phones from last year where people started having issues with google music who used Chromecast. It occurred to me that we have a Chromecast, and my wife uses it. I haven't used once, we both have T-mobile, but I have a Nexus 5. So I was just wondering if everyone else with a G2 and the same problem also had a Chromecast.
Maybe there's some service the Chromecast uses that foobars something Music uses. Someone else had mentioned that when Music errors like this, they restart their phone and if works properly. Maybe that Chromecast service doesn't start on boot, and so it doesn't cause an issue until after it is used.
*shrugs* just a theory.

I don't have a Chromecast. I wrote to Google, and replied they consulted my case to a higher tier. I hope they can fix it in the Play Music app. I'm waiting for newer informations.
I also have the same problem andere its gettin worse everyvday. I tried it with an older version of play music but with no luck.
I hope they come with a fix soon because its getting really frustrating.

im having the same issue.. if i am on mobile data or wifi. if i turn them off i will get the err less, like 2 or 2 songs. this is my primary source of music!! please help
Finally managed to get a Logcat with all the details of the crash. Lots of information in this... The process "Nexstreaming" goes haywire when the crashes happen. Lots of A2DP references as well. Hopefully somebody can make heads or tails of all of this.
I had one song playing on loop during this Logcat. This particular song crashes more often than any other in Google Play (for me anyway) . I'm wondering if the audio subsystem is getting flooded with too much bandwidth for the BT codec to parse?

Such an annoying issue.
Even with pinned music it won't always play
Funny thing I'm noticing is that - especially with pinned music - if a song crashes the player, it's highly likely that it'll crash the player again at the same point in the song. I have several songs that I can predict the exact places where the song will quit. It's not consistent from play to play though.

Music play stops when opening Gallery.

I have a strange experience music play stopped when opening gallery. Does anybody have this problem.
Pls let me know if u have any fix.
You need to give more details for someone to be able to help you...
like, which player you're using for music?
can you reproduce the problem?
if yes, mention the sequence to reproduce the problem, so that other users can also check...
Btw, I'm using n7player and I tried to open Gallery (Album mode) while the music is playing, but the music didn't stop.
Hope it helps...
I'm running PowerAmp playing 128 kbps MP3's and Gallery, view, scrolling thru pictures with flawless performance..

Hi,
I have also experienced the problem of the music player stopping all of a sudden but happens while I'm browsing. It persists no matter which player I use. I've tried clearing cache memory of the applications and from the bootloader as well. But has not helped.
What can be the solution for this?
Thanks.

Do you have LOTS of pics in your phone or card memory?
The only reason I can think of, is the ram memory couldn't handle multitasking when its fully utilized.
Our device has 1 GB of ram but the FREE memory is lower than 300 MB most of the time.
You'd look for the apps for its rem memory consumption and remove any unnecessary apps if needed.
BTW, I tested playing an MP3 file with Rocket Player and then opening the gallery app, but there was no glitch whatsoever.
Strangely, while testing Google play music I found that it stops playback as soon as it loses the focus to ANY other app...
Hope it helps.

By any chance, do you soft-reboot your phone. I had the same problem and realised that soft-reboot and the call problem were correlated to each other. I stopped the soft-rebooting, and the problem was solved.

No, soft rebooting is when only the software reboots, whereas hard reboot is that what you normally do, is when the hardware reboots as well, I think.

Since you still have an option for 30 days replacement and the problem highly seems like a hardware problem, you'd act fast to confirm the problem.
If I had this problem, I would have backed my data etc and try factory resetting the device.
Then without installing ANY apps....test the music playback for a while to try reproducing the problem...
You'd also try playing the music from device internal memory, to see if that makes any difference.
If the problem come back even once...I'd definitely ask for a replacement asap.
Btw, I never had this kind of problem, and no other person posted about this issue....so this could well be the hardware problem.
I'll suggest to make your decision fast...

VR Apps with white dot and rapid clicking

Hello everyone I have the HTC One M8 running CM13 and I have this problem where VR apps start rapidly clicking with this white dot in the middle of the screen as soon as they're started up. The phone then becomes unresponsive as it is registering clicks from it, making the phone freeze up. The only way I can get out of this is by locking the phone and rebooting the phone from the lock screen. I thought it was the magnetometer in the phone doing this so I installed an app to read it and searched up the normal ratings for what the sensor should be at and everything looks fine. I have tried reinstalling Android with a different version and still the issue persists. After a while the phone starts heating up from this and on some of the VR apps I have tried that use the same cardboard system the phone will rapidly vibrate as well. I have spent hours trying to figure out what may be causing this and still, no luck. The phone is not in a case, no magnets are any where near it. NFC is turned off, all apps are updated. If anyone knows a solution to this issue that would be great, thanks!

I have the exact same issue, the only time when the white dot wasn't showing was when my gyroscope was malfunctioning or just simply "off". I have no clue how to switch it off though.

had the exact same issue. same in pokemon go which ist a vr app. on several cm13 roms on my old m8.
only way i could fix it was to install a GPE rom. might be a cm13 bug for the m8 which never got fixed. so i guess anything not cm (aosp, gpe, stock) will work.
i dont own the m8 anymore but my old one and the one of a friend had ur issue on cm13. on gpe rom everything worked.

This problem was fixed a long time ago. The problem was the uncalibrated gyroscope, which they took out a few days after this thread was made. Just update your phone and it should work
Same exact issue
I have an Lgg3, same process I removed the magnet thinking that was the issue, I updated all apps, removed app and re-downloaded them, have an unlocked phone running total wireless so I used a Verizon sim and updated the phone to the newest version, recalibrated the phone, nothing I mean nothing I can find will work for this issue that I can find. Only does it with 360 apps not on 180.

Audio missing randomly/Can't play Music or Videos (Software or Hardware issue?)

(I know there's a thread about the audio cutting out every 2 seconds, but mine is a bit different.)
Audio would play just fine for a day at most, then randomly all the audio would stop working.
More specifically, I get a music playback error, videos on facebook and youtube can not be played, and audio for games are absent.
I'd wake up and my phone alarm is missing.
The audio doesn't cut out the first 2 seconds of a video, at least not that I'm aware of. Audio everywhere just stops working.
Although, I found that clearing the cache and memory would sometimes fix it temporarily, as well as closing all apps.
Ultimately, I would restart the device (Since videos still won't load) and it would fix itself temporarily for another few hours.
I've done a factory reset, and the problem still persists.
Should I be worried if this is a hardware issue? I feel like this might just be a software issue alone, so I'm unsure whether to wait for a new software update or turn it in for a different phone.
I am also facing the same sound problem in Germany on O2. The problem starts randomly during a call and after that no sound in the whole mobile works. Earpiece, speaker, headphone and microphone stops working.
I have tried factory reset but it didn't resolve the problem. I have even tried Safe Mode, but the problem appears in that too.
It seems like phone app takes control of all the audio and then fails to release the control.
The only solution is to restart the phone.

It happened to me on S8 and then I replaced with S8+ it is even more worse than that.
I found the issue. For me, it was the Facebook application running in the background. It's taking too much memory and causing the phone's audio to break for some reason.
Deleted it and I haven't had an issue with the audio ever since.

I tried that, but it works better when I just clear the Ram/Cache. Which makes me believe this is a separate issue, more software than hardware.

It still happens after a cache clear, and clearly if you bang on the phone and a speaker stops or starts playing, thats a hardware issue. There is no software that would do this.
I believe it's both a software and hardware issue depending on the phone you got.
I really wish Samsung would do more to solve this issue.
I just found the problem to my issue.
It was a software issue, Facebook Chat Heads was interrupting the audio and video functionality.
I disabled it, a week has passed and the problem has disappeared.

I had this happen when I was on oos as well, YouTube would just randomly pause all by itself. I also do not use a screen protector so that is not a problem, after switching to a custom aosp rom it no longer happens leading me to believe it's an oos bug while playing video ( only ever happened to me while watching videos never playing music).
If someone is facing the same problem, I think I figured it out. It had to do with an app that had permissions to be an administrator under the security menu.
Once I disable it the issue stopped.
Similar thing happening to me too, except youtube, google maps minimise to PiP randomly. Disabled PiP for both apps and it works fine now, although its annoying that i've lost that functionality.

My solution solved that PIP issue, at least for me...

I have 2 apps that have admin privileges, both of which need them to work. It's definitely a bug in OOS recently as when I bought the phone I didn't have issues with this.
