[Q] Music Lag - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Whenever i'm listening to music off of my phone and I start using my phone at the same time, it'll start to lag. Really bad, not the phone but the music. It stops everytime I touch my screen, any way to solve this?

Screenlock and PowerAMP - volume issue.

I have problem with my Galaxy Nexus. When the screen is locked and I press the volume up button , the volume goes down first and then up. It is quite weird because with unlocked screen everything is ok.

SOrry to bump an old dead thread but I am also experiencing this problem. Any fix for it?
Disable direct volume control?
Also I stopped using PowerAMP, it was causing my phone to randomly reboot whilst listening to music and doing other tasks. Gone back to google music for now .

Thanks! that worked, but somehow i feel that the sound quality is better with DVC.
I haven't experienced your random reboot problem YET. Been using it for more than a week.

Try increasing the amount of buffering it allows (Poweramp Settings > Audio Engine > Advanced Tweaks > Audio Buffer Size), I felt after increasing that made the sound quality a bit more pleasing.
I don't know why it started, but if I was using PowerAMP, browsing the net, or using it for an extended amount of time doing numerous different things, it would go black for about 10 seconds, then the google logo.
Since uninstalling it and using the stock google music, no issues what so ever lol.
EDIT
Just had a look at the reviews on the marketplace and they seem to be echoing the same issue, but not just the Galaxy Nexus, but ICS in general. Apparently clearing the application data should rectify the problems. I'll give it a try for the next two days and report back.
There's a lot of new beta builds that are available on the power amp forum. I haven't had any issues at all.

[Q] Music skips/chopping on HTC ONE X

HELLO EVERYONE
I'm having issue regarding the music chopping/skipping while listening from the headphones.
please help!!
Are you on .126 Rom? Because on there it was caused by some beats profiles, I would try disabling beats for a while and see.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I was also had this issue when I was on the 1.26 rom playing local stored music via the inbuilt player, but it was more a a small pause. As I was in a location where the data to the phone kept changing, EG 3G, E, H, I was able to determine the pause occurred when the phone changed it's data transfer type. I am no longer in that enviroment so I can not test the newer roms.
I M on 1.28 sense version, if you meant this ..sorry I'm new to all these terms Rom n all.
Kind of same here
Hi,
Not sure if it is the same problem, but I also have issues with the music chopping and clicking.
I noticed it is happening everytime the data connection changes indeed (loss of 3G in the sub, siwtch to wifi, etc...)
I asked HTC support about it but still no answer.
Will try tomorrow with Beats off.
I am using a european version (tegra) and the latest factory rom (1.29.401.11).
Can't wait for the, to release a correction, it is really annoying.
I'm suffering with a similar issue. Latest software.
Same issue here
I'm having the same problem, on version 1.29.161.13
Has only recently started doing it, where audio will skip/click with Beats Profile on OR with the HTC Sound Enhancer on. Switching these off resolves the issue. This happens when using stock music player or watching video. Switching to airplane mode makes no difference.
The fact it has only recently started doing it leads me to think it must be fixable... any ideas?!
Are you listening to your music over Bluetooth headphones/earphones?
i take it a reboot doesn't fix it?
Music skips/chopping on HTC ONE X
i am also having a same problem it also do the same thing in video playing also while streaming youtube video or play any HD video :crying: plzz help i came from galaxy s2 and hating this.....
When you stream from YouTube press pause wait about 10 secs, then play, the cracks and pops should be reduced. To eliminate them allow the vid to completely load before playing. I think is a flash problem, bound to be fixed in the next update.

A reboot does seem to help the issue at least for a little while, but it soon comes back.

I've been listening over the stock headphones, tried it this evening with my Pioneers and same issue.
Sometimes when I go to sound enhancer in the video player settings the list comes up blank with no options, and I wonder if that's related to the issue. It seems like the software doesn't realise that the Beats profile is on, so it keeps trying to turn it on again, which causes the clicks and skipping.
I tried turning it on and off through the notification bar, and then through the music player (which has more options than the video player) and then returning to the video player which seemed to resolve it until I exited and went back in later...

The issue happens no matter the source, so it's not Flash.
no matter what u do i format my sd card reset and wipe my phone put it in air plane mode for some time it is fixed but after some time it comes back i think i should sell the phone....... its a permanent problem it cant be fixed it is from hardware i think......

this is 99% not hardware. i'm so tempted to say 100% but then if it is hardware i'd be wrong
this is software. have you tried using an alternative app to play the music? such as poweramp?

I think it's software, but not the app itself. It's the same with Spotify, so i'd be included to think it's a driver of some sort, or something Sense is doing.
Anyone tried a custom ROM? I'm using MaXimus but haven't re-tested the audio since flashing. That's still got Sense, though, so probably not the best example.
Definitely driver. This problem crept up on ne After I flashed viper x. So everything I go into underground parking, my music starts to get choppy

Mine has had the same issue for a while. I've tried doing what you outlined above but with no luck
Though I didn't use ARHD 6.1.1, do you think that will make any difference?

Audio Jack freezes Screen/Pandora

When I plug in the audio jack to an external speaker system my phone is totally unresponsive and often can't unlock or change anything in Pandora. It's really frustrating. Anyone had similar issues?

Sorry haven't experience this. What rom+kernel are you currently on. If anything, see try a different rom out and see if the problem is still there.

Does this problem persist even with other apps such as stock music?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Stock ROM and I'll have to double check about other players. Really, the problem lies in that whenever I use the phone to connect to my garage system it becomes unresponsive. I have no idea why/how it does that.

Music stops playing

Hi there,
I've got an annoying issue with my S3 with any player I use. The music stops playing at some point. It could be either after 3 min or 27 min with headset plugged in or not.
I've checked everywhere and 've seen a lot of people with the same problem but none of them has a proper fix.
I am running stock JB, Canadian Bell version, no root, no flash or any of these.
I didn't activate any motion option or fancy way to stop the player. When I receive a notification of all kind while listening, the player just stops for half a sec and then resume, I believe it is the way it should work.
I would much appreciate some help coz it drives me crazy.
By the way, happy new Year!
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
I have had a similar problem with my phone ever since I switched to JB. My problem was that once the screen turned off, the player would stop, or stop once the song ends and not start the next song. I did not have this problem with ICS.
For me, I was able to fix it by going into the music app setting and unchecking the box for the screen automatically turning off during music play. However, if I turn the screen off manually the music will stop again either right away or at the end of the song. For now I'm OK just leaving the screen on since I charge the phone when I'm streaming music in the car.
Idk if this will help you or not.

had a friend that was using go locker, when the phone fell to sleep, within a few minutes the music would stop. disabling and renabling go locker fixed it. this phone was not rooted.
I tried disable/enable and uninstall /reinstall and no luck. But, I figured it out that it was due to Juice Defender settings and adjusted them and now Pandora will play when the screen is off.

Well you said you have no motions enabled but just throwing this out there you can turn over to mute/pause under motion control. I don't see how this could be a hardware problem so if you reinstalled stock it shouldn't be happening. If it's not your software then the only thing I could imagine is the encoding of your files. I know from experience that some MP4s from iTunes don't work. idk why.
Hi,
We guys don't seem to have same problem.
Music doesn't stop when screen's off. It just stops randomly.
Any other ideas?

What are you playing music with? (I'm assuming whatever media player comes with stock, but I could be wrong.)
What else do you have running on your phone right now?
I first used the stock media player then tried winamp and now poweramp.
Same problem with any of these.
There is always a lot of apps running in background such as bloat, mail, fb, rss reader, games....
I don't use task killers. I have GSam battery monitor and juice defender.
But as far as I know they don't kill running apps, unless i'm mistaken.

I think we have an answer, folks.
I would suggest going back to basics. There might be some debris in your headphone jack that shorts the "Pause" action. I would blow some compressed air in there, just in case.
Also, didn't S Voice or something have a command to Pause/Play? Maybe you have that on and through casual conversation S Voice is picking it up as Pause?
Thanks for your advise.
Blew some air but just in case but nothing.
S Voice cmd isn't active, I had already turn that off.
I think I'll do a factory reset and see if it fixes it.

I have had this problem off and on ever since I got the phone. It usually happens when I am listening to music and listening to the coaching from my running app (Endomondo Pro). They both work fine for a while then randomly one or both will stop playing through the headphones. I have tried a factory reset multiple times and nothing completely stops this.
Ok
Basically I don't need to bother to do so. Coz to be honest it's a pain in the a.. to do it.
Don't know what to do to fix this.

My PowerAmp developed a similar problem out of the blue just today or within the last few days.
JB 4.1.1 Ultimatum ROM.
Was working fine.
Then noticed it would stop playing after just five seconds, repeatedly.
I uninstalled.
Wiped Cache & Davlik.
Reinstalled and so far, so good. No more problems yet.
Pandora did not have any problems before or after.
Nope, n/m.
As soon as I hooked it up to my dock with DIY USB-OTG cable, PowerAmp started stopping/starting again.
Could be JB or any dozen other things, including my DIY cable.
I'll have to t/s some more.

As I said here:
You are running JuiceDefender.
Someone else in the thread with the same problem was running JuiceDefender.
Said someone else was able to make the problem go away by tinkering with JuiceDefender settings.
Could that possibly be the source of the problem, and a possible solution?
And as I said : we guys don't seem to have the same problem.
My player doesn't stop when screen goes black. My player stops randomly that's it.
He wanted to listen to internet radio while screen's off and just needed to set juice defender properly.
Anyway

If a specific program you're using is causing a similar issue to the one you're experiencing with other users, is it not worth taking a similar approach to solving the problem? If you don't have a sense of what settings in that program might be causing issues, then just stop the program running for a while and see if the problem goes away.
Likewise, if it's something else on your phone causing issues, stop other programs you might be running from running one by one and see if/when the problem goes away.

Umm, I am a she, not a he .
When I researched further, it was Juice Defender turning off the cellular raido that was causing the problem. The screen was a coincidence.
It wouldn't hurt to turn Juice Defender off and see if it still happens, just to rule that out. That way you would know for sure it is something else.
My set up is the same as yours, stock phone (can't remember if you are using ICS or JB), with Juice Defender and GSam Battery Monitor.
I ended up just turning Juice Defender off and putting it on power saving mode and honestly I haven't noticed a difference in performance, and I'm having better battery life than with Juice Defender. I'm getting average 23 hours on a charge and I'm using it a lot (although it does get charged in my car when I'm streaming music). With Juice Defender I was getting average 17 hours on a charge with using it a lot.
Sorry about that!
I did try that already but didn't change a thing.
I think I'll consider rooting it and flashing it.

Single music skip when screen turns off

Latest shiny ROM, 3/27 hybrid mix stable kernel
I've been having an issue across a handful of Roms and kernels where when I'm playing music thru play music app it will do a single skip/stutter when the screen turns off. Doesn't skip after that or lag at all. Known bug? Anything I can do about it?
You mean a +-0.5 second stutter when playing music and turning the screen off? Thats present in all 4.4 roms..
