I'm running CM7 nightlies, but I've had this issue in the past with other roms (both sense and aosp). Sometimes my lockscreen/headset/bluetooth music controls work with certain music apps, sometimes they don't work at all. My specific and latest example is that as of CM7 nightly # 26 (or thereabouts, i think it may have coincided with the addition of album art to the lockscreen) i lost all of these control functions for all of the music apps I have installed. Before that, they worked for mixzing for most of the nightlies, then before that they were working for player pro on the crackflasher builds. This is all (seemingly) without my control or input. I've tried freezing all my music apps but the stock player, I've tried uninstalling all apps and reinstalling one at a time. Still not working.
Is there any way to set or clear defaults for which app gets these controls? I've searched these forums and google for answers. It seems this question has been posed before in a couple of different spots but there don't seem to be any answers as to how this works, or if it's even possible.
I must be the only one with this issue? I want to post this in the cm7 nightlies thread but I don't have enough cumulative posts to be allowed to post there.

Hi there,
I´m not sure if this is the right sub-forum for this since this is my first post on this board.
Ok, so here is my problem:
I - proudly - own a HTC Desire and used to listen to the HTC music-player while using google maps navigation. On Android 2.1 it worked like a charm.
But then I updated to FroYo and since then it won´t run simultanously anymore.
What happens is the following:
I launch the music player
I launch the navigation app
When the first voice-output starts it mutes (or quits) the music player and won´t resume/reopen it automatically again
When I use a different music player it all work, again.
Also, when I use another navigation application (e.g. Navigon) the player keeps on working (but doesn´t mute...but I guess this is a Navigon problem).
A week ago I decided to root my Desire. For that I downgraded it to 2.1, again and used the ROM from ieftm. Unfortunately, I still do have this problem.
You may now ask "Why not use one of the other music players?".
The answer is: I "need" three points to be fullfiled by the music player:
Look nice (or at least not that crappy; for example...I don´t like the Astro player)
A working lockscreen-widget (this would eliminate the ³-player and DoubleTwist)
It should be possible to create a playlist-shortcut on the homescreen to be opened directly by this player
And...from all the players I tried the HTC player is the only one that has all this.
Anyway, I hope you guys can help me with my problem and answer some of these questions:
Has anybody an idea on how I could get maps/navigation and the music player working together again?
Anybody knows a music player that fullfilles all the points from above?
Anybody knows how I can set another music player to be opened with the homescreen-playlist-shortcuts?
Thanks in advance.
I tried searching and the official MIUI thread, but seems like nobody has an answer for this.
I'm running the latest 1.28 alternate download build, with the ZenDroid 1.1.0 CFS-svs kernel on a 003 hardware Evo.
The problem is, I don't use the music app, instead, I set the lockscreen controls to work with Google Listen, which I use everyday to listen to my podcasts. Everytime I press on the pause button, while a podcast is playing, it instead skips to the next podcast down the list. It is really annoying, and basically leaves the lockscreen controls useless to me.
Does anybody know what's going on here? How can I fix it?
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
I'm sorry if this is not the right thread to post it(I've searched extensively in this thread but to no avail), but I have 2 main issues with the KitKat ROM for my GNex.
FIrst of all is the issue regarding locking your screen when playing music. When I'm playing music and locking the screen, the phone will suddenly stop the music suddenly and then resumes. This gets quite irritating but I don't know if this is normal KitKat behaviour.
Secondly is that 720p playback with MX is very laggy. In my experience with stock, I've seen better peformance out of the player, and I'm kinda weirded out by this.
I'm using the stock kernel, and what not. The only app that I use that effects many apps is Greenify(Oh, and I don't greenify the music app).
Even I did a clean flash the problem persists.

I know that MX player was having issues with early builds of CM11 but don't know the particulars for Playfulgod's rom. I would try and flash another CM11 based rom and see if you have those same issues, if not you can boil it down to that particular build.
Hello, I am having a problem playing podcasts. When I start a podcast it plays for a few seconds, then the sound cuts out but the playback continues and silent seconds go by. This happens in Podcast Addict, Podcast Republic, and happens in Apollo with downloaded podcasts as well. I don't really know why this is happening and I haven't found any way to troubleshoot the problem. Other audio/video streaming services such as Spotify, Netflix, and Youtube work perfectly. The only problems I am having with playback is with podcasts, it doesn't matter which app I use to play it. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix my problem?

Hello, and welcome to XDA! I asked the moderator to move your thread to make user-generated answers available
The build you are using is experimental and has battery drain issues. Check the bugs list. Some of the framework modules and APIs conflict with each other, and some third-party apps like the ones you are using don't fully have Lollipop support yet
I recommend switching to KitKat until there is a more stable and usable ROM. I checked out the ROM thread for the version you are using and the ROM is still in the Alpha testing stage. Not even beta. Along with alpha comes unstable.
I think that a lot of noobs (I'm not saying you are one) have issues with trying to get the latest and greatest, however the latest and greatest doesn't always work properly.
Best move: Switch to KitKat.
Hope that helps, and don't forget to use the Thanks! button.

Thanks. I'll just use my old phone that has KitKat for it in the meantime while it is getting fixed.

Hi everyone. I have had an issue with specific Roms, mainly sense based but some cm /soap based as well. When playing any stored music ie. Music player or any player from the market, and turning the screen off, the music literally slows down about 30% and gets distorted. It does not occur when streaming music at all ie. Pandora, FM radio or google music. Seems to react similarly whether the file is on internal or external storage. Happens with all headphones and my headphones work normally on other devices, to rule out the obvious. I am currently running sd sense 7. Any ideas?

Did you ever flash hk mod?
Last year I did with a different rom. I believe it was one of vipers Roms. But not on my current rom no.

I think that you currently have BoomSound audio files in the rom and the HK adsp installed... I suggest you to reflash the stock adsp or flash the HK mod again... :good:
Edit: as you run sense 7 rom i suggest you to flash stock adsp instead of the mod because it might be incompatibile...
After trying a bunch of different music players, I found that PowerAmp works. Seems odd that even the majority of the apps on the market have the same problem. This still just seems like a bandaid to the problem and I would like to figure out why I am not able to use the HTC player.

You answered yourself you flashed hk mod and then another rom, so probably you have hk adsp and BoomSound files... You need to change your adsp back to stock or flash again the mod to get hk files... As you are on sense 7, i suggest you the first choice just to avoid incompatibilities...
Flashing hk-bs-switcher-4.3 and choosing bs stock seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks
