Is anyone else's headphones refusing to work? I will plug them in and for a split second I get some sound then nothing. If unplug them it works just fine. If I restart sometimes they will work again but then stop for no reason.
Seems to be in ANY app that makes sounds, I am running Bugless Beast v.3 and it did it in .4 as well. I have the full root (NAND etc)
I rooted and installed a custom rom within hours of getting the phone so I am not sure if it is something with my hardware or the ROMs I am loading. I haven't seen anyone complain so I am guessing it is just me =(
is it a safe bet youve tried these headphones in other players?
have you tried connecting them to any other sort of speaker system?
I have had this problem. I also have Fresh, Bugless Beast, and EVOlution v8. Can't remember off the top of my head if I've tried the phones in each. Like you said though, if I re-boot, pull them out and plug them back in, or both, they start working again. Weird. The earphones work on my laptop. Hasn't been too much of an issue (doesn't happen all the time) so I've been ignoring it. Besides, the sound quality of the phones I have sucks!! I'm ordering new ones soon and I'm hoping that will resolve the issue. Haven't seen anyone else with this problem so I assumed it was the phones (they were SUPER cheap, like $10).
Yes they work other places and in other systems. They are very expensive headphones so I am certain it isn't the headphones issue.
headphone problem
had that also may be the music app you have on the phone or maybe too many music apps. i had mixzing media player, double twist and the standard music app. i took the mixzing player off and had no issues after that. don't know if this is the answer, but something to look at. hope this helps.
I think other users have found that a normal stereo jack doesn't fit right. I heard there is a small adapter to go from the 3 contact stereo to 4 contact stereo with Mic. I haven't looked for it yet.
It's a female trs to male trrs adapter.

I think that will help.

Headset Blocker.
It has something to do with how the jack seats. The widget nukes the mic function and fixes the problem so now all my headphones / car jacks work.
It blocks the headset / mic function so your normal jacks will work without issue. I have been using it since release day and no more problems. Who uses those wired mic/headsets anymore anyhow.......BLUEHAIRS thats who.

Fixed: flashed custom rom
Hey so I've tried searching other threads for my specific challenge and none of them seem to really touch on this so here goes.
I have a Samsung Fascinate, I'm rooted and I've flashed a bunch of kernels and ROMs no problem and as far as I can tell my Bluetooth works fine and audio works fine.
My issue is this: My car supports hands free calling via bluetooth and i've paired them with no issues and have made/received calls no problem. I've also used my phone to play music through the AUX cable no problem. I know that my car STEREO does not support Bluetooth and here is where i run into a problem.
I have my phone plugged in on my way to work singin along to my favorite tune when a call comes through. But (I think) when the AUX is plugged in, it interferes with the audio when connected to the bluetooth. Basically i can hear a call coming through on my car stereo and i can push the buttons on my steering wheel for functions on the phone but i can't hear and the other end can't hear me. So i have to end up unplugging the AUX cable out then the audio returns.
First off... is it just me? did I do something wrong along my journey of flashing all sorts of stuff? cuz i could've sworn at one point (i think before i went voodoo) it was all working fine together, but i could be wrong.
So if it's not something I did, is there a headset adapter out there with controls and possibly some kinda screen for like caller id or at least current track? like something that can connect to regular earphones that has an inline mic and controls.
Unless you fine folks have a better idea I would love to hear them. (I don't have a budget for this... just want to get it working... unless it's cheaper to buy a new car that can support it all)
Thanks
I think this is a fascinate specific or limited problem

Hey there everybody!
After flashing away from STOCK i've come to notice problems with corded headsets (I'm using normal headphones right now).
For Example, any kind of sound is extremely low volume, that is until i press the button (that normally would trigger some kind of phone function, or the voice search - which it doesn't).
This only exists with corded headsets for me, not bluetooth ones.
Anyone else have this? Any ideas on this?
Shoot!
I had noticed when I flashed GBTweaked on my phone, I had plugged in an older headset and it stated that my device was not compatible with my phone; even though I had no issues with the stock.
I wasn't really concerned about it as I typically use my bluetooth headset anyway... In fact I can't even remember why I had pulled out that headset to begin with.
-when listen music either on HTC music widget or PowerAmp
- got Gap and silent when using Bluetooth headset
- works fine if direct connect to the ONE X
any idea and fix ???
I've yet to see if this works for bluetooth but had a look at the ROMeOS rom and saw this in the build.prop as monx seams to have fixed the stutter: lpa.decode=true
I've set this in my build.prop and will try through the car bluetooth tomorrow.
To edit build.prop in the system folder you will need root access
thanks , buddy , let me know the result.
Unfortunately made no difference for me, will keep digging though as this is annoying when I have a 40 min commute to work each morning and again back.
Anyone have any idea's?
Edit: this doesn't just happen on the beats setting, turning it off makes no difference.
Anyone have any ideas on any fixes yet?

Have the same stutter issue even after 1.28 update connected with my bluetooth MW600.
Seems the problem is device switching to power conserve core. When i play music in background while running GPS in foreground, iam not getting the stutter.

That seams to be the case, having just sat in my car for 15 mins, 5 mins just music and 10 mins with music and maps and no glitches with maps.

I have the same bluetooth headset, the MW600 and the stutter makes it unusable. I'm on 1.29 stock now and I got to the point that I don't use my MW600 for listening to music anymore, but just wired Sennheisers.
Have you found a solution yet?

No. Not really
After using MW600 for 2+ yrs without much issues iam thinking to order Sony Smart wireless Headset Pro and see if it makes some difference. But, its not yet available in stock
http://www.sonymobile.com/cws/corpo...rtfolio/specification/smartwirelessheadsetpro
I read somewhere that some custom ROMs solve music stutter issue. Iam on stock locked and can't comment though.

I was also planning on buying that Sony thing, but then I found my Nokia BH 214 back. It is now charging and when I'm back home I will test it. If it also stutters, I'm not going to buy a new headset, because it's likely to have the same problems, although that Sony is Bluetooth 3.0, which could make a difference.
I'll let you know the results with the Nokia.
I have stutter problem with sennheiser Bluetooth headphones. Am on stock 1.28, and disabling beats doesn't help (although did help on older version)
Music is unlistenable now

I'm running 1.28 & have the same issue with my car kit which is a works supplied Nokia car kit that allows A2DP connections. I'm definitely going to try running the GPS at the same time on my way home from work to see it that fixes it as suggested. I have a usb charger that I plug in so won't be using any extra juice. I'll post back my results.

Sorry for the very late reply, I completely forgot it. Just yet I tested the Nokia BH 214. First my One X couldn't find it, tried for almost 10 minutes. Then I disabled WiFi, just to try, and yes the headset was found. Then I put WiFi back on, but it refused to communicate. Wifi off again, communicating worked. So to say pairing was easy: far from that.
Now the next phase: listening to music. Completely unusable. Very very bad. There's something wrong with output, vocals are washed away and sound like the singer is 100 miles away. While quality isn't an issue with the MW600. But also the gaps. What is also very strange is when the phone is on my desk in line of sight with my headset, the are only a few gaps. But as soon as I put the phone in my pocket, the gaps increase exponentially.
So I think in my case the only thing left is to send the phone back. There must be something wrong with it, my WiFi reception is also very bad. Bluetooth also sucks, so since WiFi and Bluetooth are handled by the same chip, there must be something wrong with it. I really like the phone and sending it back means it's away for 2/3/? weeks, but first I hoped it was something with the software but that hope is fading away.
--------edit: just pissed of by all this. Called HTC and I'm sending it back for repair. Nice phone, but basics like WiFi and Bluetooth must work and they don't. They said it will be back in 7-10 working days. Hope they can keep that promise. --------
Have the same problem with my Jabra Freeway, really annoying to get thos silent gaps when listening to podcasts and music in the car. Tried to run navigation on my way to work today to see if that made any difference but it didn't :-(

Thanks for info.
Seems the problem is more related to Bluetooth version & buffering.
I'm planning to buy Sony wireless headset pro with bt v3.
I'll update once I get it hopefully by end of June...

I just tried using my Moto S10-HD after reading this, and thought I would tell you my experience. I have alot of music on my phone, and I just hooked up my BT with Wifi on and no issues, so I started to play music and so far 3 songs and no gaps stutter or anything like that. One thing that does happen which prior phones didnt happen is that when the screen goes to stand by after not touching it, there is a .5 second interruption in the song, but thats it I am currently on my forth song and the phone is in "standby" mode and it plays perfectly.
I have the WWE version of the phone using 1.29.401.11 ROM BL unlocked, rooted, and custom stock rom.
Not sure that it helps you but to share my experience; I have occasional stuttering on bluetooth using my Sennheisers if the phone is in my pocket. I found that I can replicate the stuttering if I completely cover the top of the phone with a hand on either side and cupped together at the top - in fact I can cut off bluetooth playback altogether.
This isn't a normal way of holding the phone obviously - but it does count if the phone is in your pocket, there is already some 'resistance/interference' from the surroundings. Other than that, I have great wifi reception, best of any phone I have had.
Could this be a hardware fault? Maybe they just need to boost the bluetooth signal / improve buffering?
I only got my HOX this week, aside from this issue it is great, no other issues - touch wood
Mine seemed to studder when it was in my pocket while I walked my dog. I sent it in for other issues and we'll see if the new one has similar issues.
Same problem here ! Kinda disapointed !
Same problem SonyEricsson HBH-IS800
I also have a lot of stuttering. It appears to be a very weak signal because it works better (though still not flawless) when I have the phone close to the headset.
Putting the phone in my pocket is already far enough for playback to completely stop working.
Bluetooth pairs and plays through headset just fine. But as soon as I put phone in my pocket it starts to lag and skip and crackle. ... Rooted with twisted rom. Anybody else, or do you think I have hardware issue
I have the same issue with mine, but its paired to my car stereo and within 2 feet of the thing, if i have the phone in my lap, often i get the same results as you are experiencing. Im wondering if its a antenna issue or if the output is lowered on the S6 so range is limited? Regardless, its not just you...
Same here.. just brought new bluetooth headphones and the only way it plays without any problem is to leave the screen on. Does anyone know of a fix for this?
Seems to work fine on mine and my girl's phones running renegade, havent tried headset but wireless speaker from across the house. Sixaxis controller works fine too but slight lag at times, which i think is just the app. Hope this helps maybe try a fresh start with odin?
