Running lollipop with vision mod. Cannot play music thru Bluetooth without stutter, tried diff apps, nothing.
Tried turning things off, no help.
Happy to supply more info, but now at a loss.
Have you tried deleting app data and cache?
What player are you using? Starting to get this problem more often. I'm using power amp. It'll stutter, stop, crash, phone will unpair then reconnect. Annoying.
Pegged it down to the Rom. Cm12 functions rock solid, any TouchWiz is the issue. Tried turning off stuff with titanium, no luck. No player seems to resolve this, it almost seems it drops out at a tower handoff,but I'm no expert. Stumped and frustrated.
Cm 12 doesn't play nice with my cam or gear fit, otherwise it'd switch to it.
Gave up on wanting a gear fit connection. Restored my cm12.1, and all seems well.

Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with Pandora using any of the 4.2.2 based ROMS? I don't think it's a ROM issue because I have no problems with other streaming apps, just Pandora. What happens is constant cutting in and out which makes listening to music through Pandora a nightmare. I used to use it every day but now it's becoming unbearable.
I have used it connected to 2 different BT connections. I know some people will say that BT is messed up but I can stream my personal music collection or different audio streams through both connections with no issues, it's isolated to Pandora. I've tried adjusting settings in the app, resetting it, reinstalling it but nothing seems to help.
So is anyone else experiencing similar issues? Maybe know some steps to take to try and fix it? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
The issue with BT at this point are in quaility but that should be fixed as well. have you tried clearing the APP cache? ore even clearing you cache and dalvik cashe? those are my first steps when i have any kind of issue as well a permissions fix. I personally have not had issue with padora but i dont use it much anymore thanks to spotify.
I really don't think the issue is BT related or I feel I would have the same problem using google music service or xiia music radio streaming, which I don't. That isn't to say it's not possible, just unlikely in my mind.
I have not only cleared cache/dalvik in recovery but I have cleared app data, uninstalled and reinstalled. Maybe it has something to do with a governor or sched I am using but it gets really bad at times and only pandora is effected.
Well you could make a back up of your current rom and try another one and see if it gives you the same issue. Or maybe see if you can find a older apk of pandora and if it will run for you
well i started playing with some kernal options, and changed the MIN schaling when BT is connected and so far with short initial testing it seems better, so it's like that was my culprit. The CPU was scaling and I could hear it interrupt the music. More time and some fine tuning will dial this in. Hopefully this info can atleast help someone else in the future if they encounter the same problem.
Seriously, read this post before replying. I will not repeat myself.
I'm currently running CM10.1 RC4. That said, this issue has occurred on other builds of CM10.1 and other ROMs altogether.
This issue only occurs when I'm using the 3.5mm headphone jack.
There are no regular intervals. The music will pause randomly. Yes, pause. Not skip. Not stop streaming. Pause.
This happens in multiple music apps. Google Play Music, iHeartRadio, PowerAmp, etc...
This happens with different headphones. It's happened on my SkullCandys as well as the stock headset (with volume/pause controls) for SGS3.
If I install a new ROM or build, I always do a full wipe. You know what I mean, so do not ask.
Can't think of anything else that's relevant. I really need help on this one. I listen to music daily at work and having to reach over and hit play every now and again is starting to drive me insane.
From what I gather, this seems to be a widespread issue only for some, and not device specific. Some people saying it could be a bug in Android OS, while others blaming it on certain background apps running while listening to music. I'm gonna give it a try while running the current ROM I'm running. Also if the plug moves just enough to barely disconnect, it will cause music to pause.

Bumping because this issue is just not going away. I've tried disabling some apps, using different headphones, etc.. no difference.
Pleading for help at this point...

Maybe the headphone jack in the phone is bad, causing the music to pause like its being unplugged at random times.
So the issue is very weird and I can't think of a good explanation for it. Occasionally, when my bluetooth automatically connects to my car stereo, Walkman will start automatically and start playing music. Other times, it connects to bluetooth automatically, but the music never turns on. I see a Walkman Bluetooth service in the task manager, but it still won't connect. Sometimes it will connect when I turn the car stereo back on after it was previously connected, other times it won't work. Sometimes I will kill the Walkman service entirely and it will turn on automatically, other times it won't. When it doesn't turn on automatically, I can always start it up with no problem manually, but as you can guess while driving this isn't a great idea.
Has anybody experienced this or know what might be wrong? I haven't had this issue on any previous phone; they always started the music automatically. I'm using the latest build of SlimKit, but this has happened with previous ROMs.

I have a Highline stereo in my car and have similar problems with sometimes failing on first connect. As I have never had this issue with any other of my Bluetooth devices I put it down to the car stereo rather than the phone.
There is a bluetooth config file that needs to match up with what the car stereo is expecting, which would explain why it works on some roms and not on others. If you find a rom that it works on, copy and paste it into a rom where it doesn't .
I used to have to do that with my galaxyS2 to get it to talk to the car. I believe its in system/etc/bluetooth main.conf or audio.conf
Also, I'm not sure the Walkman app is so good and might be the source of the problem. I have noticed that it struggles to play mix albums and can be a bit flakey if it doesn't have a working internet connection when you first turn it on.
Poweramp has a 'resume on Bluetooth' option and plays mixes seamlessly, always starting to play as soon as there is a connection.
This probably wasn't the answer you wanted
EDIT: Lots of people have complained about 'Thow' and how useless it is, and how it stops a device connecting sometimes, try freezing the throw app with Titanium, might be the culprit.
Thanks for your input! I tried using Power Amp to see if there was any difference, and without opening it at all, it connected to Bluetooth immediately. This looks like a good sign.
I will also try freezing Throw and using Walkman, as I would like a free option as well. Thanks so much!
I am interested to know, did freezing 'throw' fix your problem?
Tried Power Amp with the start on Bluetooth option checked, same thing started happening. I don't have the Pro Titanium Backup, so I just backed it up first then un-installed it. I'll be able to test if it worked in a little while, and will post back here!
So I was able to uninstall Throw and started using Google Play music, but it still doesn't autoplay sometimes. It seems more consistent, although that could be a placebo effect since I hadn't tested it a whole lot before. I can't think of what else might be wrong, except maybe it's my stereo.
The past few weeks I've been having Bluetooth issues when playing music on my Note 4. I'll be playing stuff either on my PowerBeats2 or UE Boom and all of a sudden the music will stop playing, I'll hear a hiccup of sound a few seconds laters and that's it. When I check, the bluetooth on the phone is still on and still connected to the devices. The devices don't notice a drop connection either. I look at the music players and it LOOKS like they are still playing sometimes but there is no sound going through the bluetooth connection and nothing is coming out of the phone speakers either. What I end up having to do is turn off the Bluetooth on the phone, turn it on again and then manually force the connection on again between the two then hit play. It happens with Google Music player and the Samsung Music player and Musicmatch so it's not a particular app. Strange this is, it doesn't happen when I'm in my car and the charger is connected to it. It happens with songs on the internal memory and the microSD card so I don't think it's the microSD card going bad. What I do notice when it happens though is that it seems the phone completely lags out. Like it's pausing right before it happens. Screen response time can be nonexistant or laggy all of a sudden. Anyone else having this problem? I've wiped the cache and everything as well and this still happens.
I've also noticed my phone be quite laggy lately actually. It didn't happen originally when Lollipop was installed nor did the Bluetooth problems. I've been pulling apps off my phone and checking data and battery use to see if it's some app that's messing up but can't seem to pinpoint anything. I ordered a new battery because I've had it drop from 25% to like zero within a few minutes sometimes. I'm also considering wiping the whole phone and fresh installing Lollipop from scratch instead of sticking with the upgrade from KK that came through. I'm not sure if it's software or hardware related these problems. Any ideas or suggestions?
Hello guys.
Phone is rooted to recent MOAR rom. Recently I have been having an issue when connected to my bluetooth JamBox the bluetooth cuts out after the song and plays out of the phone for the first 10 seconds before reconnecting. An error message that says Unfortunately bluetooth sharing has stopped.
This is an isolated issue to my phone as others can connect to it and play continuously without issue.
I have tried to clear data on my bluetooth files in titanium backup , even installed and tried BLE crash resolver to no avail.
Anyone have any fixes for this?
TIA guys
please...
okay...so I wiped all data and reinstalled teh moar rom I had on. Now... I can get the bluetooth to play thorugh the speake.r... ok
before the reflash.. I would play on spotify and would get the error that bluetooth share stopped. the sound would cut out and play through phone for first 10 secs and then pick up through bluetooth speaker.
Now...at end of song the same error pops up but there is no cut out of sound. Next song keeps playing fine.....BUT if I try to fast forward it will temporarily cut out sound to phone and go back to speaker. Please help.
There are two probabilities!
1. It can be a BUG in the ROM
2. Or else your JamBox must have some kind of problem.
Try the same thing with your stock ROM. If everything works fine then its a BUG in MOAR ROM.
You can connect to the developer and give him bug report, he'll probably solve it in his next version.
If Bluetooth still disconnects on stock ROM then its a JamBox problem. You need to replace it.

well...I had been using this rom for atleast 6 months no issues. Now I can use pandora just fine no issues and music stored on sd card. . MY wife with same phone regular stock can play the spotify just fine...no issues. so why is my phone and spotify having an issue especially since i relfashed...?
Try to clean flash ROM.
It'll probably help you.
I did clean flash. Still won't work right
OKay.. so I found a nandroid backup on my phone I made. The wicked S5 experience one that had an old spotify version installed. Surprisingly the spotify played without error. So I backed up the spotify in TB and then reflashed MOAR. I restored the old spotify and it is working still on this rom as well. The latest version of spotify is what was giving it issues. I'm hesitant to download the new version of spotify from the playstore and give that a go. Weird issue though. My wife has the same phone (stock though is the only difference) and the latest version of spotify and hers plays fine through JamBox.
So I did end up installing spotify from the app store and the same version that wouldn't work previously now works. I must have fubared something in the operating system files or whatever is responsible for spotify and Bluetooth.
