Headphone isues... - Desire General

Hi,
I have some problems with headphone.
1- If I didn't start the htc's music player when the phone started, the headphone is not functional. I mean, If I press play button of the headphone, the music app doesn't play. In any case, I have to start music app first time.
2- The headphone button control or the music app isn't very responsive. When I press next or previous button, it delays about 1 sec.
3- When the headphone is plugged in, if you close and restart the phone, the phone don't recognize the headphone and you have to plug it in again. I had some funny also shameful moments with this issue. I had supposed that the sound was coming from the headphone, but it was coming from the speaker of the phone
Does anyone have these problems?
I'm using dj droid's rom. But afaik, the stock rom has some of these issues, too.
Regards.

Well I don't have problem 3, i can't test the others since my headphone doesn't have those functions.

Regarding problem 2, do you maybe have a lot of music on it and are you then playing it at random?

Yea, I'm using shuffle option. But there only 8-9 albums in the sd card. the sd card is class6 16gb. Maybe I should use the kernels with oc.

try playing just one album in normal order and see if it works any faster.

[Q] [Problem] Music Player skips like crazy when I use earbuds

Running stock, with installed music player. Everything works fine when using just the phone. It works when I run a line-out to my car stereo. When I use earbuds, multiple ones now, I will eventually encounter this problem.
It may take more than an hour but, eventually, the player starts skipping around. It will play 1-5 seconds of anything and then repeat or skip. Also, I only use earbuds (one, really) is when I ride my bike. The ride with the handset in the front pocket of my shorts. At first, I thought there might be an issue with the contacts but this will occur even if I'm standing still.
I've read some threads in other folders but have not found the solution. Has anyone else experienced this?
Hard to say what might be causing this. I don't use the stock player -- can it be set to skip forwards or backwards when the hardware volume buttons are pressed? Could these or some other button be pressed while you are riding? Is something touching the Dpad while you are riding?
On some audio players, it can be made to automatically pause if the jack is removed -- does the stock player do this?
No buttons pushed and the phone is locked.
It seems that if the earbuds connecter spins at all in the jack, which will always happen to some degree, the player begins to skip. Is this something I can fix?
If you can reproduce it by spinning the plug then it sounds like a hardware problem. If using a different pair of headphones doesn't fix it then it is your phone....
If it might be software, have you tried using the new Music beta media player instead?

Yeah, three different sets of earbuds and upgraded to the new Music beta media player. I guess I need to call T-Mobile (ugh).

[Q] Music stops when app switching.

I've asked this question before but there were no replies.... I hope this time I'll get some pointers and re-phrase my question better.
I'm using the GSM Galaxy Nexus 4.1.1
Sometimes my music stops playing when switching apps or pressing the home button to return to the home screen, it doesn't happen all the time, but very troublesome when it does. It happens usually just right after unlocking the phone from sleep. I'm using the stock music player
I've noticed that this issued happened to Android phones as well, I tried to update the stock music app, and switched kernels. I don't know what else I can do. I don't recall encountering this problem back in 4.0.4.
Any help would be appreciated

Give us a bit more info:
1. What music app are you using? If it's an app that can both play local media files and stream, which are you doing?
2. Are you playing your music through headphones, the internal speaker, or Bluetooth?
3. If headphones, have you tried other headphones? If Bluetooth, how far away are the devices?
4. Which ROM and Kernel are you using?

I said I'm using the stock music player, Play Music.
I'm playing music through headphones.
I am sure that this problem is not because of the headphones
I'm using the stock 4.1.1 ROM JRO03C. This problem happend on both the stock kernel and Franco Milestone 5
Are you running any other memory hungry apps? Sounds like your music player is getting killed because the memory is needed for something else.
I've had this happen in two instances, so hopefully my personal experience will help you.
The first time, it ended up being a faulty cord in my Nokia Purity HD headphones, I bought a new cord and that fixed my issues.
The second time it was because I was attempting to play music, that I had downloaded in Spotify, but since I was in a crappy coverage area, it would pause the music every time I lost a data connection, even though the music was stored locally. Switching Spotify to offline mode fixed it, so you might try switching to offline only mode in Play Music.
Even if you don't think it's your headphones (for example, you tried them on a PC and they worked), you have to remember that phones have many more contacts inside the headphone jack, used for the media controls in headsets (headphones with buttons and mics), so if there is a short in your headphones that makes the phone think you're pressing the "Play/Pause" button, it wouldn't show in your PC, because most if not all PCs lack this functionality.

[Q] Galaxy Note 2 sound/headphones issue

Loving my Galaxy Note 2, but I do have a few minor niggles regarding the stock Music Player that I'm hoping someone may be able to help with. I'm on stock firmware btw.
#1 Headphone play button often does not respond if left in pause mode for over a few minutes.
Allow me to explain - I'm at my desk at work listening to music with the stock music program. I get a phone call on my work phone so I click the headset button to pause the music. I finish my call and press the headset button to resume music. No response. Sometimes if I click once, twice or three times more it will start playing again. It's like the phone enters a sleep mode that won't respond straight away.
#2 Music EQ gets lost when something else happens on the phone.
For example, if I unplug my headphones to go for a walk to another part of the office. I return moments later, plug my headphones back in but the EQ is all messed up. Almost sounds like you’re in a tunnel. If I click the EQ button it immediately reverts to the correct EQ setting. This can also be simulated on demand by having music playing, swipe your hand over the screen to take a screenshot (music fades out, there is a camera click sound), then when the music fades back in it has gone into that tunnel EQ sound. Again, clicking the EQ button sorts the issue out.
I have considered moving to a different music program instead. I've tried Google Music (which has it's own bugs like album art disappearing), Winamp etc but for some reason the stock player's EQ settings (custom extended with Bass on 2, and Clarity on 1) make my Sony headphones respond far better than the EQ's in the other programs. And you can put a spot of reverb on the music as well which sounds ace.
No one else has these problems? Does no one use the Note 2 for music listening?

I have had some issues with my Note 2 also. Coming from Htc One XL with beats audio which some people don't like, however I did. Whenever I plug my headphones in the sound quality is just not as good but compared to HTC output sound is so much better.
Ive tried Original settings with phone plus added beats mods, but neither are producing same I quality I had with HTC phone, which is a pain as I do listen to music regularly on my phone. Not sure if makes big difference but thought I'd better mention I'm using in ear phones not headphones.
similar issue here.. sometimes the headset next/pause button works.. sometimes it doenst.. looks like once the phone sleeps it doesnt want to respond .. but response if i wake up ,, which is just stupid.

Headphones issue while playing music

So I've searched around for an answer but haven't found anything, so here goes....
I have a stock S3 and when I'm playing music on my phone (stored on the external card) and using headphones plugged in, as soon as the screen turns off, the sound comes through the speaker. I've tried 2 different music apps and they both did it, along with trying 2 different sets of headphones. I have the 2X Battery Saver, which I disabled and tried again with the same result. If I'm listening to Pandora, it doesn't do this, so I'm guessing it's something with the music being on the card? Any direction would be helpful, thanks.

If you have stock and an unrooted, unmodified rom on than this should be app related. Are you using the default samsung music app? Also what version are you running (4.0.4 or 4.1.x) Here are some things to try:
1. go to settings->sound and try to look for settings that may be causing this
2. got to settings->security and try to look for settings that may be causing this
3. go to settings->apps and find your music apps and press clear data on it. Then reboot and try again.
4. I did find a chat room with issues you described. The one suggested solution was this "Unplug your headset, start the music and then plug the headset in, it should reset for you correctly. Could not tell you why that's what I had to do." (Don't know if it works since I cannot test it)
If I have helped, please slap that thanks button

Headset button weird behavior.

Hello.
So I had a lot of experience with previous Zenfone devices but this seemed pretty awkward for me. I'll explain the issue and list all of the troubleshooting I've done so far.
Here's the problem, the headset button (I got those cords with volume and play/pause buttons). Seem to activate something else besides just pause or play music. When I press it, it pauses but at the same time audio quality changes to a "Phone line call" Quality... I have to press it a couple times more in order to rotate to the default audio quality... Sometimes it even changes the audio output, I've noticed that even with the headphones plugged in, it seems to change to speakers...
Observations/troubleshooting:
It looks like this problem happens only when the device is locked. The play/pause button behaves normally if the screen is on. During Asus cover screen does the problem too.
It definitely is not the music app (Tho I found weird that it didn't come with a built in music player, BTW Google play is more a store than a music player, so I don't use it... I've been using Black Player for a month now, it's s amazing). I tried messing with the Audio Wizard app, but no matter the settings or the mode I put it, it seems to not fix it.
I tried downloading the Headset Button Control app, it still seems to do something else besides what I assign the button to do...
This didn't happen with my zenfone 2 Z00AD... I love this phone but this issue is important for me because I live in a pretty dangerous country, so I use every tool I have in order to not show my phone outside...
Pls halp.
