Hello,
I have a problem, which I didn't find here.
If the media player is playing music, and then I turn the phone to standby, I can't turn it on again, and have to soft reset it.
It also occurs when there is a call while playing music, and if the device turn to stand by after some time, I can finish the call, but after the call, the device does nothing...

I've just searched this site with pretty much the same problem, which I've posted under the original thread of "Windows Media Player hang". Looks like there's a few of us out there who are hoping for someone who knows...!!

has anyone had the same problem as I have with bluetooth stereo headsets?
when I pair up my device with the headsets and start listening to musich on windows media everything ist just fine, the problem is when I pause the music while the phone is in standby mode, when I press play again, nothing happens, it works again after I press the power button ..this is annoying, normally this shouldn't be happening....does anybody know what the problem is??? thanx in advance!
The bt3030, is that the dogtag one? Because I use that one without the problem you describe with my Dutch stock TP2.
yes thats the same one....the dogtag one... but I also have the BT620s also from jabra...and it has the same problem...if I leave the phone for longer than 5 seconds in pause it wont play again after I hit the play button...when I hit the power button then it will automatically start playing again...but its annoying to have to hit the standby button so it recognizes the phone again...are you using WM player or another player? or are you using the manila player?
Turns out I have the same problem...
Just tested it, and you are right! If you wait a couple of seconds it won't resume playing (using wmp). I don't have a clue about why though. I was already quite happy it worked (kinda) as on my HTC Elf avrcp didn't work most of the time and A2DP was also very patchy. Looks like HTC needs to look into their BT programming.
I've used Jabra with 3 devices already, and its the first time I experience this problem and its REALLy annoying cause you have to take the phone out of your pocket in order to turn on the screen so it resumes the music... it must be a problem with the bluetooth stack...but I have no idea about that..hopefully more people experience this problem and somebody finds a solution...
Another BT problem
But it should probably in a different thread. I sometimes experience a lapse in the BT connection: the headset and phone temporarily become disconnecrted so the audio is rerouted through the phone's speakers, which is quite embarrassing in a quiet train or library! The connection often is re-established after a few moments. Have you experienced this kind of behaviour?
yes I also have...but this usually happens when your listening the to music and receive a call...so the music is automatically silenced, then when you hang up the music plays again but it comes out through the speakers.....but only after calls....and only sometimes...yes its quite embarrasing, but I guess it can't work perfectly....i think the play button problem is worse...and I can't find anything in other threads....apparently we're the only ones that have this problem, or that have noticed it...maybe we should look in the TOUCH HD thread, or the diamond II threads....

I can assure you that TP2 is NOT alone. It's very common ONLY for HTC device. I have the same problem w/ ATT Tilt (HTC Kaiser) and Sony X1 (tested w/ MANY A2DP devices) and such problem was not happen to my Asus P525 and Eten M600. And I think I saw posts for the same problem for HD, TP1 and Diadmond too
I wonder if possible cuz I want to save battery
Whenever I press the power button when playing music, the music stop. I have tried to play music and wait for the screen goes off itself but it stay on forever.
i want to know it too,
btw the backlight wont turn off automatically coz the device status is "used" while media playback
Hi
There is an answer to what you want, it called Nitrogen Player.
The Player is really (really) good as a solid MP3 player and it has a function button on-screen to turn off the display and keep playing, excellent for the battery and putting in the pocket while listening to your MP3's.
The proggy is free and is something I use all the time on my TP2, full credit to the developer.
Get it here:

Hope this helps.

I am actually using the coreplayer which also have the ability to turn off the screen while playing.
But thx anyway
Touchflo3d : plug in headphones or a headphones based accessory and it will let you turn off the screen while still playing.

wow thx so much
I know Ive seen this done on other phones and Ive searched high and low on the forum to no avail. Is there a cab tweak that will allow WMP to continue playing while on standby.
You shouldn't need any add-on or tweak to do this - unless you are playing thru the speaker. WMP should continue to play on wired and BT headsets even in standby.

The issue is seen when playing music through the TF3D player itself out through the speaker, and the system locking through S2U2. You can't turn the screen off or else playback will stop.
Someone posted a solution for what sounded like the same problem, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4468939&postcount=14
They stated that it is actually caused by S2U2, and there is a setting within the program that will fix your issue.
However, this doesn't fix it for me. Worth a shot to try though, so I know if its just me or not.
You can use ShutXP to turn off just the screen (instead of going into standby) to accomplish your needs. However, this isn't the most ideal solution.
Explained:
It seems that the power button driver doesn't turn the screen off it puts the device into standby. That is why when you try and turn of the screen with the power button ur music turns off. Its just like a computer. If you use psshutxp and use that to specifically turn off the screen the music will continue to play.

Actually, after doing the option mentioned in the other thread, it will still cut off the music if you just press the power button. My solution (which works for me, at least) is while listening to music in the Touch Flo tab, I press start, then enable S2U2 by clicking on its icon. The S2U2 screen then shows up. I tap anywhere on the S2U2 unlock screen (without actually trying to unlock it) THEN I press the power button. Somehow, that's my workaround to keep music playing through the phone speakers while the screen is off.
Hope it works for you.
I have thesame problem. The default WMplayer works even in standby but all other players like coreplayer, pocketmusic, etc stops when I press standby. So what's in WMplayer that made it continue to play even in standby?
If u press the power button to send the phone into standby the music stops. However if u just leave the phone and allow it to enter standby automatically (set at 30 secs for me) it will continue to play the music.
start playing a song, go to menu, options, buttons and set Toggle Screen to a button. Then when you press that button it will turn off the screen. Works on the Fuze..should work on the TP2 as well
Another solution would be to use gyrator2, and create a rule that when running WMP it blanks the screen when turned face-down.
(remember if adding gyrator to a TP2 to disable the "hang up call when turned upside-down" option as that's when speakerphone is supposed to kick in, not hang up the phone!)

my wm does not do this, when i hit the top button in wmplayer it still cuts the music off
since I upgraded to 6.5 the screen will turn off automatically (after the time you've specified in energysettings) and the tf3d audioplayer continues the playback. If I switch of the device the playback will stop, so let the device switch the screen of by itself. At 6.1 the screen always stays activated.
I've got a similar issue and some noob questions:
Regardless of if i have headphones connected or not, WMP stops playing within a few seconds of the screen shutting off. This happens regardless of if I let the screen turn off on its own or if i do it manually.
I went into the power settings page and disabled "turn off device if not used for ".
Now the backlight dims, but the screen never really shuts off (unless you push the power button). WMP works like a champ, but I have a few questions/concerns:
Is the above behavior normal for a completely 'stock' phone?
How bad is that for battery life?
Is there a better way to accomplish the same thing (turning off the screen, but maintaining playback)?
Based on the option in the settings page, im assuming that more then just the LCD turning off is actually occurring when the screen blanks out?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
Mine turns off the music whenever I press the power button, whether on WMPlayer or TouchFlo, when playing on the speaker. When I hooked the phone up to external power it does the same. When I hooked it up to external power and to my cars speakers through an FM Transmitter, with the transmitter being plugged into to headphone/lineout jack the music stayed playing.
This is not due only to S2U2...because I did a hard reset...and it still has this issue, without any added hardware on the stock Rom on a Tilt2.
My Samsung Epix with its stock 6.1 Rom never had this problem. Music always stayed playing.
No fix yet?
I am new to this forum of wonderful people, wizards and cooks. I have a problem.
I just flashed my X1 with the Phoenix ROM. Everything seems to run just fine. However the only problem is that the moment the device goes into standby or the screen completely turns off, the media player simply switches off the audio by itself. This is happening with Windows Media Player, Nitrogen and Pocket Music. Is this normal?
Previously, the music used to be on even when the device screen was switched off using the Power button.
Please help/advise on what to do. I listen to lot of Music. Desperate to get this solved.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards
sometimes i get this problem with coreplayer and sometime i don't. using valkyrie rom. weird
Right here's the issue with my Samsung Omnia 7.
Boot the phone up, listen to some music through Zune, all works fine. Pause the music or back up and watch a film, still works fine. Pause or go back to music and listen to music...... Plays the tracks but no sound! Only way to get sound back is to restart the phone.
Can someone else try this on there phone. It's an MP4 film that im playing through Zune.
suddenly i can hear no more Sound on my HD7. The Speakers are death, so i tried to reset it to the factory settings but after rebooting there is the same Problem. One hour later the screen began to flicker. It seems that there is something completely wrecked.
I called O2, they will send me a new HD7 :-(
