Aux cord in, music wont play - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Alright so my Gs2 doesnt play music when i connect the aux cord from my car to the phone. It just plays through the speakers, if i press the 5.1 button, it says only works through headphones. The music works fine if i do plug in headphones though, just bugged on why it wont play in my car.
Any ideas why? or how i can fix this?

Weird I hook up my sgs2 to aux in my car using my google music streaming app and it works fine, maybe u have a faulty plug

hmm... it works fine on my g2x :/

try going in to settings dock settings and hitting play through external speakers?

I've got a cassette player connection for my car and it has worked fine so far via the 3.5mm port.

Did you push the plug in all the way?
I only ask because i thought mine was bad too.
But i had to really push the plug in.

Well on the way home i tried that docking option but it still doesnt work. Maybe the gs2 reads the aux as not a legit auxcable? Because i wired the aux myself to the corolla radio and it works fine/great with mp3 players and my previous g2x. Any other suggestions? Im bummed that i cant blast my music in the car no more :/

this happened to me once too, same scenario in the car.
i think unplug/plug fixed it?
when bubby releases the stock rom maybe you can try flashing that and see if it fixes it
otherwise id try and return it, cause for me its crucial element

Enable Microphone while using 3.5mm jack

Ive noticed that the microphone is being disabled when using my 3.5mm audio cable. Its easier for me to update my phone than it is my car stereo, so bluetooth is not an option. Id like to be able to be hands free while driving like my evo3d allows. I dont know of an option to enable it, anyone have any ideas?
When the cable is in, it seems the mic is disabled in all apps. Voice search wont work, phone wont work... Bummer!

when i have the aux cable in and i make a phone call the phone defaults to speakerphone, the person i'm calling comes through the car speakers and i just talk at a reasonable volume and they hear me just fine

[Q] Bluetooth with Aux Cable

I saw that this had been asked once before, but no suitable answers were given unfortunately. On my old Evo, I could play music through my stereo via aux cable, and the phone would switch to Bluetooth for calls. This meant cutting the music, and transferring to both the mic and earpiece for audio omy bluetooth.
Currently, the audio on my ET4G doesn't transfer to the bluetooth headset, but instead comes out of my car speakers. Any workarounds to get the call pushed to Bluetooth when it comes in, or am I stuck just unplugging the 3.5 mm jack?
For your info, I'm currently rooted and running Starburst 1.98, although I'm willing to change that if it can help with the issue. Thanks!
I've been wondering about this too. Seems like you can still talk through the BT headset, but the person you are talking to comes through the speakers instead of the headset.
And I am still completely stock and not rooted BTW.

Hmm . . .audio still coming through speakers for me.
It works while i'm my car dock so I guess it won't work through the headphone jack

you guys got it figured out yet, got the same problem
and havent found a solution....
did a search within the ET4G forums with the term "headset" and this is the best result..

Constantly losing Bluetooth when A2DP triggers

I have a Bluetooth headset that supports A2DP. All notifications and media play through it automatically, which I very much like. It worked perfectly on my OG Epic 4G, but on the Touch I've had constant issues where somewhere around 25% of the time that my phone sends it something via A2DP (usually a notification sound) my Bluetooth will disconnect, I'll hear its disconnect sound, then I'll have to wait a couple of seconds to hear it reconnect, which it succeeds at roughly 80% of the time. Otherwise I have to turn it off and back on to get it to connect.
Anyone else experience the same with theirs? Any thoughts on a cause/solution?
Are you rooted? What ROM are you running?

While I am now rooted, but otherwise stock, this problem has occurred since day one. It's not related to any customizations.
Am I REALLY the only one experiencing this? Seems surprising.
No. I thought it was my headset, and I was about to replace it.

All right, so we've got one more person with the same issue. Now if only we had some extra thoughts on a solution, or a line on this being something Samsung is aware of.
Since this got moved I'm not sure if it's been seen in this forum. Anyone got any thoughts? Similar experience? Idea of if there's a possible fix?
I'm have a problem playing bluetooth audio through my factory stereo
I'm have a problem playing bluetooth audio through my factory stereo, which worked flawless with the EVO. This is a show stopper for me because I travel a lot and listen to podcasts in my car. Since I got the E4GT I have been unable to stream BT audio.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out this is related to the same SoundPool bug that causes a lot of games to crash on the E4GT. I have no further info to help you, unfortunately; you can Google around about that. The short version is that that if it IS another symptom of that same bug, there's probably no fix.
I have a tiny Bluetooth USB jig that I plug into my laptop and my music plays fine through my laptop. I will test it out over a longer period of time tomorrow but so far its been great..

Music stops with slightest disturbance to headphone jack

When I rotate/disturb the headphone jack even slightly, the music player pauses. I'm guessing this is a hardware issue (I've tried with multiple headphones and the problem remains).
Is there an app to fix this? Is there a way to set the stock ICS player to not pause when the headphone gets disconnected and will this actually help? Is there a 3rd pary music player that can do this? Is there an alternate do-it-yourself hardware fix I can try? I really don't want to go through the hassle of giving it for warranty, since it would involve shipping to the UK but I desperately need a solution :/
Thanks
Well first tell what device do u use?

You might have a hardware defect with your headphone jack, but I just did a test.
If you have headphones in, and unplug them, it will pause the music. The same goes for bluetooth. Last night I was playing music over bluetooth to my cars sterio, and normally I would hit pause on the stereo before exiting the car, so my phone doesn't keep playing. But I had forgot to do that, and my phone didn't keep playing.
I think this is either a function of ICS or the Galaxy Nexus, as my previous phones would just keep playing when disconnecting from bluetooth.

Poweramp has an option for what happens when disconnecting. I think by default music pauses for all.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Thanks, will try the PowerAMP trial version, if it works out will spring for it. By the by, is there any decent free music player that can do this?
Almost every Android phone I've owned would automatically pause when removing the head phone jack. I listen in my car and just unplug it when I'm done.
Also I had some weirdness with headphone jacks before. For one they are open all the time and normally on top so lent just falls down in there. Fortunately the nexus is at the bottom so hopefully gravity helps this. Sometimes the jack you use doesn't make good contact. Supposedly you used different ones so I'd say that is eliminated. Probably just a bent pin or something. I wouldn't risk attempting to do this yourself.
I had one where it would think it was in headset mode all the time and would route all audio to it thus I would miss everything. I ended up doing a warranty exchange.

(Q)USB audio Out is it possible?

I recently bought a new stereo for my car that has USB,Aux inputs.. i can use the aux but the sound is not as good as the USB. i can use the USB however i will be limited to the stereo controls and it,s pain in the a$$.
can i play music over USB cable so i will have full control of what i wanna play. ?
to make it easy when u mount your sd card on your computer you cant access their content from the phone same think with the stereo
it,s a long shot but you never know there might be a mod that i messed

Hmmm i don't think you can, you're stereo is probably "iPhone ready" where you can use the iPhone physically i think... But with Androids it'll see it as a storage device.
If i were you... Go Bluetooth, i find the clarity better than aux too. That's if you can return the stereo and invest a little more for Bluetooth.

I don't know if you can use a USB cord or not but I know you can use an auxiliary cable. That's what I do

You can, it depends on what your system can handle.
At work I plug into Home theaters via USB
Even though their crappy for audio fidelity, samsungs stuff is the most compatible.
But flac wont be found on any HTIB on screen menu I have tested

It may benefit you to know that your phone has preset volumes when you hook up different devices. I'd say try to use the AUX cable if you haven't invested in a Bluetooth device (which is the better option). Just turn the volume up in the media settings and you should be good to go.
