Anyone have any info on this?
My old Orbit2 used to continue to play music through HTC Audio Player as well as Windows Media Player however now if I tap the power button to put device into sleep mode the music pauses.
Anyone have any suggestions/fixes for this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Not sure of Orbit as I do not own one.
But all the WinMo device I have are behaving the way you describe in TD2.
There is apps inside or 3rd party which you can just switch the display off (not the power off), So the device is not off but the display off can save you a lot of battery.
Yeah, I got an app touchlock pro that turns the display off.
Just a bit annoying that I had the problem on the orbit 1, was fixed on the orbit 2 and now the problem is back on the topaz.
Still its a minor thing I suppose - Rest of the functionality seems great so far
Just a little update on this if anyone was interested.
Upon further experimentation I have discovered that i using my bluetooth headset for music playback i can now lock the phone by holding down the end call key and then press the power button to turn the display off whilst maintaing music playback.
Not sure if this works when using a wired headset but it did not seem to work just playing out of the speaker minus the headset.
My D2 continues to play music with the screen off using both coreplayer and windows media player.
EDIT: I thought I would double check - strange, today it stops the music! I know for a fact the other night I was listening to music and the screen was (almost) definitely off. I will investigate further.
EDIT2: I thought further and I know it was playing music with the screen off. I know this because I was happy that the volume buttons still worked.
I just did some checking.
When the headphones are plugged in the music continues playing when you turn off the screen and the volume buttons continue to adjust the volume.
Without the headphones plugged in the music stops when you turn off the screen.
Thanks for that, not actually used the wired headset before but what you have said is correct. it is a shame the same method for bluetooth stereo wasnt implemented or perhaps its just my bluetooth headset. looks like might have to get the wired headset out for a bit.
Hey, is there a way to skip songs with the headset we got?
i never noticed this until today.... how annoying, i just finished loading up my new microSD.
If anyone has a fix for this, please post
Thanks!
Mine appears to be fixed now when using my bluetooth headset or the wired headset But still stops if playing through the phone speaker.
I use a Jabra BT8010 bluetooth headset, and the music continues to play after pressing the power button. The music is shut off if playing through the phones speaker....this is the same as my previous phone (htc TYTN II)
Pre FroYo I used to have a major issue where if I had a 3.5mm cable plugged in and it was jiggled slightly the current media or if none was playing, new media opened randomly on the phone, would just start skipping to the next song/track/etc. I've been using the froyo test rom since it was available and I have not had this issue occur even once. Anyone else notice this?
Hope this is fixed for everyone! The bug made using the N1 in my car almost impossible.
Also, you can download a 1 second silent mp3, and create a playlist with only that mp3. Play the playlist and exit the music player.
Then download meridian and use that. If the music player is launched somehow, it will play the 1 sec of silence and exit.

I had that bug in 2.1 and fixed it with the "Scotch tape on the plug" workaround. However, I've started seeing occasional skips again. I was attributing it to wear and tear on the tape, which is beginning to get a bit frayed, until I saw the thread about Pandora skipping now (that's where I see it), so I'm guessing from your report that it's a separate problem. I hope you're right about the fix for the plug jiggling and that an upcoming update to Froyo and/or Pandora will address that skipping, as well.
I had this aswell, but only with the stock music player. I switched to ³(cubed) and it had an option to disable the next, play pause buttons on the stock headset. I didnt use stock headset so i didnt need it. But after that i never had any problems, not even on 2.1.

I never had this problem once using stock for the last 3 months. I use the wired headset multiple times a day. First day on cyanogen and now I have this issue. Stock ROM was perfect.
Also cyanogen is giving me much worse battery life.

Still have the issue with Froyo. Doesn't seem anywhere as bad as it was with 2.1 though. Purely observational test however and in no way conclusive/scientific
Greetings everyone!
I recently purchased a Samsung i9000m with Bell Canada. Thankfully I have not had any major problems with the phone, but there is one large annoyance I have discovered: Whenever the headphones are plugged in, pressing the button on the headphones cord starts the Music Player app. Additionally, removing the headphones also starts the Music Player app. Has anyone else experienced this behaviour from their phone? Is there a way to stop this irritating "feature"?
My phone is currently all stock/not rooted, except that I recently upgraded the firmware to JH2 (this behaviour also existed on the previous firmware).
Many thanks in advance,
Matt
The first feature is intentional. ( Why else would you press the button again? )
I don't get the second. ( It does pause when I pull it out, and it starts playing if I have that setting on, when I put it in. )
Thanks for the reply.
I'm not sure I was clear. Anytime the music player isn't running (i.e. after turning on the device), unplugging the headphones will load the music player. Similarly, pressing the button on the headphones (i.e. to answer an incoming call while I'm driving my car) will also start the music player!
Basically I want the music player to only load when I choose it from the apps page or home screen...I almost liken it to a weird version of "autoplay" from windows computers...I wish there was a way to turn it off with a simple check-box!
Can confirm that unplugging any cable from the headphone plug will open the music player app.

Well that makes two of us....I guess that means I'm not imagining things!
Doesn´t open Musicplayer when plug out the headsetcable on my SGS. Maybe you have any other music player widget or app installed?
I saw that also. Better yet, even killing the app with autokiller, adter a few seconds... there she was again playing.
I was in transit that tine and could not investigate the problem. Didn't use musicplayer much lately so don't know if the problem still exists.
For me the trigger was the headset button. Click that sucker and you have an annyoing Musicplayer that returns from the deads.
yeah very annoying. i was just testing the tv out and it still starts it when unplugging the cable.
Just a FYI.
You'll get the same effect when using a Bluetooth Stereo headset
1 tap to wake up the phone
2 tap to launch the music player
double fast tap to skip to the next song
1 tap long hold to call last number dialed
... and there are more tricks, but that's usually what i do
I love cm9, and i know it does have bugs yet to be worked out, ie the wifi (I just toggle airplane mode and wifi on and off till it works, hbo go (I just watch it from the internet vs the app icon, Hulu plus ( well I have yet to get that to work. My main issue though is with the sound I can no longer listen through the head phone jack while in android, works fine in webos.
It will mute the sound, but I get nothing from the head set, also if I am streaming pandora and the screen goes off I get static sound in the background while the music is playing, bring the screen back on an the static goes away.
Is this a known issue can't seem to find anything on it anywhere
I'm having this problem aswell (so far only on youtube) but is it an inherent bug (like camera) or something that can be fixed by tweaks or procedures or different cm9 versions
I thought I read somewhere that if you put in your headphones before starting the application that the sound will be coming from, it will fix this issue...

This is a known bug with cm9.
Hello,
Got my Nexus 6 yesterday and installed PowerAmp (not a fan of Google Music). The problem I am having is that when paired with my car Bluetooth and I use the Forward/Backward track controls from my car, the Nexus 6 screen turns on and then turns off.
Anyone know how to turn this off? From some initial searches threads are saying it's not PowerAmp but it's something to do with the ROM?
Thanks!

What version are you on? This started happening to me since the 5.1 update...using Google Play Music All Access, or whatever it's called now, and the screen turns on whenever I change tracks. If the phone isn't locked, it will stay on until it times out...which is 5 minutes for me...very bad.
Hi there - Android 5.1, Verizon Nexus 6.
Yes this is a known issue, sadly. It happens to me with Google play.
