Streaming stops when screen locked? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I was able to use the Youtube app w the screen locked to listen to the audio, I can no longer do this, also happens with streaming any content on the web. Is this Jellybean centric? I searched numerous combinations and nothing. Anybody have any insight or solutions?

I have never been able to do this ever on any phone. When you put your phone to sleep, it shuts everything down. only way to keep things active is by using a wake lock and some apps dont have this built in. but youtube app will stop immediatly after leaving the application.

Actually I was doing the same thing, but that was long time ago. I still had my sgs vibrant. But I think google made some update or whatever and stopped that future from working, it was before I got my sgs3 (I've skipped sgs2) and loooong before jb come out. Were you able to do it on sgs3? I would love to see someone bring it back.

Knew this was possible! Thanks for the link boss!!! Now if it could just play playlists id be so effing happy!

Yeah thanks guys. Im sure I was able to do it with this handset maybe it was my Vibrant. Seems like a silly thing to remove since you may want to listen to audio wo the screen on.

EK02 Bug Thread

Well no one has made one yet, so I'll do the honors.
I have seen a decrease is signal strength, but I have noticed better data speeds. I never had the LoS issue before, so I can't tell if this fixed it or not.
Source for EK02 still hasn't been released yet...
Also just a heads up Sprint updated Swype to the latest version in this update as well.
Sound bug is still there. I can't comment on LOS until I am running the new radio (currently on EG31).
What is the "Sound Bug?" And I also noticed that Samsung added arrows to the lockscreen.

Bug where some games and most emulators will randomly crash, usually within minutes.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17623
This only seems to be an issue with the ET4g. Besides that I haven't noticed any other issues.
Can someone please test the headset control for music?

I was wondering the same thing until someone posted a link yesterday. Is it isolated to games because I thought the sound bug was how loud it got from 1 step below max to full volume. Lol

I tested with two headsets.
My Samsung earbuds (came with Moment) don't have any control.
My Klipsch (S2m) earbuds have two controls. Short press opens contacts, while long press opens Voice Talk.
I haven't tested it to answer or end calls.

No. I tried with the Samsung (stock) music app and the Google Music app. No luck. Screen is turned on if off, but nothing is changed.
ATM, the headphone button doesn't have any control over music.
Does anyone else have a problem when opening the app drawer, zooming out, then selecting a page only to bring you back to the home screen?

Yeah that's new. They removed the checkboarding from the browser and the "bounce." Thank the Apple likeness lawsuits ... Same stuff that was in the euro sgs2 updates.

I have this bug also. My lockscreen seems to have disappeared as well, but only on a critically low battery. Not sure if that is behavior or not since I have only had the phone for a day.

For your lockscreen go to Location & Security and set your lock period to immediately

Works perfect with my Motorola S9, all the buttons work, but then again it's got dedicated buttons for music controls.

I don't have an option to set the lock period. I'm on the stock ROM and unrooted.
The EK02 update has seemed to fix the touchscreen acting crazy while charging, but I'm not entirely sure about it.
this is NOT a bug, but do not want to start a new thread.
No more call disconnect while tethering on a 4g connection regarding a phone call [[=

[Q] Music skips?

I looked just about everywhere, but couldn't find anything.
While listening to music on my phone (flac and mp3, on phone not the cloud) I get skips and pops when I multitasking. Does anyone else have this problem? This doesn't happen all the time, but enough for me to put the question on here.
Nonrooted locked and stock (yes yes I will do it this next week.)

Phone speaker, wired, or Bluetooth?
I'm asking because I've seen an issue with music skipping over Bluetooth while the wifi was scanning.
I haven't noticed skips wired or through the speaker, however.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
While using Google Music, streaming, I get skips and pops on longer songs (Hour long mixes).
This is on cell data w/ headphone jack.
Issue goes away for a few seconds when you pause the track and press play again, only to return.
Wired.. Always resolves itself, but annoying.

Start playing a song and hit the three dot settings tab in the upper left select sound effects and turn on the EQ. You can change the EQ to to the flat setting if you want the music to sound as it did before. This fixes a lot of the music player sound issues.

Actually it does. People have reported before that turning on the EQ stops the skipping/crashing problem.

If you have a clue than you would know that it does fixing skipping issues so keep your "not trying to be rude" comments to your self if you are unaware of a fix.

Netflix

Does anyone know if there is a Netflix app or version that has decent video quality? I was so excited to get it back when, but the video quality or lack there of drives me crazy and I can't even watch it.

That's the way Netflix works. It works that way even on other devices like the PS3 or Roku. The point is to get it on your screen as quickly as possible, and then as the buffer fills more, it improves the quality.

That's funny, i've never let it go long enough to see that. I just get inpatient and use my hulu plus. I have been using hulu plus since July and it is high quality right from the start so I just assumed it was a problem with Netflix. Thanks, you made my day!

No, smart stay works when the room is lit but I like to watch videos in bed which makes it impossible because smart stay doesnt work in dark.

But I guess Android Jellybean system files dont support adobe flash out of box so maybe tweaking system files for screen time to support flashplayer is needed.

Search for "Screen On" on Google Play. Free app, no ads. Tick the stock Internet browser and enable the service within the app (disable the annoying icon in the notifications bar within the settings). Voila, issue resolved.

Q: GNow help

I noticed at one time I was able to speak into my phone to play a song and then it would give me 3 options one being YouTube. I would click it as always and then it would start playing. Now I do the same thing and it just pulls up links. Is there something that changed or is it a ROM issue? Thanks
