[Q] Notification audio problem with headphones

Hi everybody, first post on xda.
I have this problem on my GNex: when i listen to the music with headphones (through poweramp mainly) and i get a notification, the sound of the notification clips a little and after that the audio volume get lower for one or two secs... as far as i know this doesn't seem to happen w/o headphones and happens with all the roms i've tried, even with the stock, all tried with various kernel.
The same problem happens to any of you?

i am unlocked, rooted, but with stock 4.0.2 rom and kernel.
don't use Poweramp, but listen to Google Music throughout the day, and have no problem with notifications using headphones.

Cyanogenmod 10 on HTC one x

Hi there,
I know this belongs in the developer forum, but I'm a lurker and don't have my 10 posts yet. So sorry to bother you.
I am experiencing some issues with Cyanogenmod 10 on my HOX. I installed the Endeavour Cyanogenmod 10 Rom (017). It's working great except for one issue. My headset is not outputing audio during a call or anytime. It will output audio over the speaker phone during a call, but not over the normal speaker. It also appears to not output audio over bluetooth. However, it will output audio over the headphone jack. I have played with all the settings adjusting to different volume levels, but this has not seemed to fix it. Is this just a weird jellybean setting that I'm not seeing? or is it just a bug with the ROM I installed?
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!
Josh

updates
After some more tinkering, it appears that bluetooth sound works during calls, but not during music play back. But it still appears that no matter what is done, the front speaker is not functional. I have tried reinstalling the ROM and the kernal.
Any suggestions?

Hey,

I suggest going back to a sense Rom, CM10 is missing alot of stock features, has worse battery and generates a crazy amount of heat.
The temperature the device reaches is beyond even an overclocked ARHD Rom with faux.
Auto Brightness is dull (yet still crazy temps)
Widgets are awful
Camera is awful
Notification light tends to be always green
Plus several other annoyances

Blank screen
Has anyone else been having a problem with the screen going black/staying black after periods of inactivity?
I haven't been able to notice a pattern, but all I know is that, occasionally, my phone will refuse to show anything on the screen when I try to unlock it - other than black. The backlight will still be on, though, and the hardware keys light up.
It's fixed by a simple reset - but it's annoying as hell.
Anyone else out there having the same problem?
I've searched all over the internet and can't really find anything :s

Yes, that's a well known bug with the kernel, try a different kernel

Try IceColdJelly-ROM.
It is running Android 4.1.1 and is way faster and smoother than Cyanogenmod ..
and you don't have this freezing-screen-problem on ICJ..
regars :}

Thanks - I have no idea what either of you are talking about, specially how to change the kernel - but I'll look it up as soon as I get home
I read somewhere that it's a Facebook GPS bug, and since I've uninstalled Facebook it hasn't happened again...
Yet...

Weird issues with audio on my G2

Hey guys, I'm running the Elitemod ICS rom on my Desire Z, and lately I've been having some really really strange issues with audio. Firstly, when I plug headphones in nothing happens, and when I adjust the volume the beep that plays goes through the speaker not the headphones, but music or videos go through the headphones, no headphones icon appears as I think it used to do. Just before I was adjusting the volume and testing out music and noticed it was extremely quiet, I was about to reinstall the louder volume mod from the dev section, but I noticed that the audio was playing through the earpiece not the back speaker..... After a restart everything is nice and loud and normal, should I be worried or was it just a glitch.
EDIT: When playing music with Apollo, it seems that audio is playing out of the earpiece as well as the back speaker. Is this normal?

No, this is not normal. Did you do a clean install of the rom? Did you try other ROM's?

Since the problem started happening no I haven't tried any other roms, in the past yes I've tried heaps of roms. I did do a completely fresh install of this rom a while ago but it just started happening out of seemingly nowhere

I can only guess that it's a hardeware error if it doesn't work correctly on other rom's as well. If other rom's with the same kernel and android version work, you can try to copy the drivers from that rom to your current rom.
I hope it's fixed by installing a totaly different rom, otherwise you'll have to sent this one in to get it fixed as well.

[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.

[Q] Bluetooth Streaming Audio Issues?

I'm having issues with distortion/cracking/popping with my One in the car. When I'm streaming audio through Google Music or Pandora, there is noticeable distortion whether Beats is on or off.
I previously had an S3 and that worked fine. This morning I paired my work iPhone to the car and was able to play from the on device music without any distortion. Next up I'm going to try an aux cable to see if it's a Bluetooth or phone issue, but I wanted to see if anyone else had a similar experience.

I noticed major hissing with the beats EQ on. Turned it off and I don't hear it anymore.

I've got a 2013 Sonata with the Dimension navigation radio.
I suspect something related to Beats but I'll have to play around with it while not going along at 75mph.

Hmm, interesting. I'm assuming you're on the stock ROM?
Also, you said you still get the distortion even with Beats disabled, so do you think it's still Beats related?

Stock, with a bunch of stuff frozen. I'm a noob to modern HTC, so besides turning off Beats in Settings, are there other ways to tweak it?

Using Google Play Music in a 2013 Camaro and I've got no audio issues.

I just purchased the phone, but slacker worker flawlessly. Have not had a chance to try Pandora or other music apps yet.

Rush hour traffic this morning allowed me to do some additional testing. I found that Play Music is distorted with/without Beats and also regardless of how loud I have the Bluetooth output volume set. I don't have any full songs on the phone, so I opened the generic Music app and played back some of my ringtones. None of them were distorted coming over the radio, so I'm further puzzled about why Play Music would have such an issue.
I'm going to try Pandora on the way home to see if that is affected as well.

Another update: Pandora works great. Play Music is toying with me...

I'm curious to see what your testing shows. I need to get a new stereo for the car and would like to do the bluetooth thing.

I just flashed a debloated ROM, so I'm going to try Play Music again with it being a non-system app.

I'm partial to Amazon for my music, curious to see how it works.

i just had that same issue, but with the native player
just got the phone less then 24 hour's and i had it crackle when i had it playing in my civc! it didn't do that yesterday, but today i noticed when i played deadmau5. maybe i had to turn it down one or two notches. maybe volume has something to do with it!

I've tried it as low as 50% on the volume bar. I'm thinking that the interference has to be with Play Music, Beats, and my car's amp. Or some combination of the two since my S3 did not have the issue, and my work iPhone plays just fine.

It's a [decent] stock system, so I'll have to check around for that info.

So now that I finally managed to phrase it correctly, there are a lot of other people reporting the same issue, and it appears to affect Sense ROMs due to the factory settings for the Bluetooth stack. AOSP does not seem to be affected.
https://www.google.com/search?num=20&q=htc+one+bluetooth+audio+distortion

I just got my HTC One from Verizon yesterday and noticed a horrible sound quality when streaming music through Bluetooth. I'm streaming to LG CM4530 stereo system. The distortion is just unbearable during high pitches. The problem persists regardless the volume in both the phone and stereo, the app used (tried Pandora and Play Music), turning Beats Audio off or even cancelling the EQ on the stereo system. I'm convinced that it's not the app because I just replaced my old and slow Droid 2 Global loaded with 2.3.4 Gingerbread and never had any problems with A2DP sound distortion. (Yes, ironic.)
Many point that the problem is on the stock HTC ROM, but I haven't hear of any fix so far. Any suggestion?

Sorry to revive an old thread, but have other users with the sound-over-bluetooth distortion issue found any way of solving it other than flashing an AOSP ROM?
