Music mixing itself? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

well apparently im having some issues with my SGS, I tried to wipe data factory and installed a whole new ROM, deleted all the music and downloaded it again (all of it ) just because the music, when played just randomly started to mix it with other songs, i couldnt listen to one single song without it being mixed automatically.
So I decided to put on some fresh downloaded music and nsome new ROM, but the problem started again!!
It keeps mixing songs without any order or reason. I tried downloading a new music player "Mixzing" but it keeps mixing, its driving me crazy.
Currently on Android Version 4.0.4
Handbase I9000XXJVU
Core version 3.1.10-i9000 Devil_1.1.6b_BFS_BLN_CMC
Compilation Dark Knight 3
mod version [email protected]_knight_nasif
I dont know what the problem could be, or the solution, I dont mind installing a new ROM or anything. I just want my music

That sounds very strange... When you say mixing, do you mean music from other songs is being inserted to a song while it's playing?
Have you tried looking at the music player app while it's playing, and looked for any strange behaviour? Eg jumping around to a new track? Maybe it's something to do with the headphone, like if there's a hardware next button it's faulty and randomly makes you skip ahead to the next track.

By mixing I mean it does not change the song, it just adds a little part of another song and then it gets back to the current song.. Lets say its playing Song A, then on the half of A it starts playing another random song (not starting a new song, but it just adds a part of another song), and then it gets back to the original song.
I dont think its a hardware problem because it does not change the song, the player keeps showing the song, but it just randomly mixes it with another song; although it displays its playing the current song.
Any other suggestion, i guess ill install power amp.
thanks for the reply

Did you manage to solve the problem? Can't really think of anything that might cause this strange behaviour... Are the mixed songs permanently there? Ie if you replay the song, the same thing plays again. If so, maybe the song file itself got corrupted somehow...

Mp3/Ringtones Skip on Start and upon phone answer

Hello, Has anyone had this problem. As soon as you play a mp3 or ringtone it skips and plays fine. After it's loaded you can play it from begining to end fine without a skip. It only happens when it firsts loads. Also every time my phone rings the song skips and when I pick answer the phone it then skips again. Im not sure what the problem is I copied these ringtones from my MDA which never had this problem. Im guessing its some buffer or cache problem.

Are the files on your device, or an SD card?
There are some known issues with music and video files having to buffer before playing when they are stored on SD cards.
thanks for the reply, but no they are not. Although they did play fine off my SD card on my MDA I currently do not have a micro SD for my phone.
Check out this thread for more information. There are a few suggested changes that you can make to your device to try and eliminate the problem.
Same problem

I have the same problem. If I go into the phone settings, and I choose an MP3 ringtone and press the play button, there is a jump or skip in the beginning of the playback. If I hit the stop button and then the play button again, the skip is gone. The same thing also happens with calls coming in.
I checked that thread that someone posted, but it mainly discusses if MP3 songs on a media player are skipping or jumping.
Anyone know how to fix this?
I also have all my MP3 ringtones in internal memory.
ok i had this problem to.. dk's 3.02 0.0 rom doesnt seem to have the issue nemore my mp3 ringers which r stored on SD card dont skip nemore..maybe its rom/radio depedent as dumb as that sounds
do you think there is a way to get the fix from that rom rather than change it completely over? I don't want to run into all kinds of other problems by using a new rom.
Thanks for the replies
There has got to be a better way rather than flashing a new rom??
Anyone else having this issue??
Jonathan1683, have you resolved the issue yet? If so what did you do please?
No I haven't I even flashed to duttys rom and it did not fix the problem.
Any one else have any ideas about a fix for this MP3 ringtone saved to internal memory skipping problem??
I could be wrong, but when my phone is connected to my pc with active sync they dont seem to skip when I get calls. Have no idea why
hey Jonathan, I still haven't seen any possible solutions posted here. Have you hard reset and if you have is the problem still there??
Well I just got this phone and it had the problem out of the box, then I upgraded to the new rom released by htc and it had it and I used a cooked rom and it still has it. So I guess that means I have hard reset it. It seems to be worse now somethimes it skipps in the middle of the song too. I don't understand how the cpu could be 2x faster than my mda, but cant handle a ringtone better. The same goes for the slow/crackling dialer. Maybe it's a problem with the sound driver. Who knows....
I only seem to have the issue with the ringtones, and not while playing an MP3. I think there must be a way to fix this. Maybe some kind of registry setting??
My knowledge is limited in this field, but I am sure someone out there can help us.

Media Player breaks sound / battery

Hi there,
i have a strange phenomenon. When i play audiobook MP3 with the Media Player, it won't continue with the next track although it's in the playlist. Sometimes, when i wait about 1 minute, it goes to the next song, sometimes not and stays in state "playing" at the end of the track not jumping to the next.
So far so bad. When I stop the Media Player now (not terminate app, just going back to home screen) and turn off phone (standby) the battery is empty next morning and it plays no sound anymore.
Neither alarm nor mediaplayer nor anything else i try to play a sound. Only a soft reset helps.
Any ideas? Is it Windows Mobile 6.1 that is that buggy?
up - anybody has the same phenomenon or a solution?
Currently i'm searching alternative players, but mostly freeware is not really quality software
it works ok here, but I'm finding the Diamond to become very sluggish when playing MP3s in the media player, odd and annoying !

Nexus One Having Trouble With Audio Formats

I've been trying to play music on my Nexus One, all in MP3 and M4A format. The M4A's play fine but stutter horribly. The MP3's don't stuttuer but you can barely hear them at all even when the sound is turned to 100%. I'm running Froyo FRF91, if that helps. Any help?
EDIT: Okay, let me explain again. I am using the OEM headphones btw. I'm start to play a MP3. When I play it, all the lyrics are so low you can't even hear them even when media volume is at 100%. But, the music is normal. When I play a M4A, the everything is right but, it does lots of stuttering and distortion. Another problem i ran into is when I manually put album art on a couple songs in the form of JPEG, they showed up. But, when I did the assign album art in iTunes, it uses bitmap and they won't show up. So my guess on that issue is that Android doesn't support bitmap. So my question is, how can I get them to play normally? I'm using the stock media player.
Anyone care to help?
Please?
Well, I guess the lack of answers is because people either don't understand what you're asking, or don't understand how your problem could be created.
What are you using to play files - headphones or speaker? What kind? I have no stuttering whatsoever on MP3s (didn't try M4A, but I can try if you point me to one), and when the Media volume is 100% - I can't put on the headphones, they destroy my ears.
My only suggestion would be to wipe and reinstall the rom. Then again, that's my solution to just about every problem my phone has.. and it usually works.

Is this clear now?
Are you sure there's no problem with your audio files?
I'm still having the problem! Can anyone please help?

Yes, this time you're very clear, and this time I also have an answer for you.
This means that either the contact on the headphone jack or your headphones are bad. It happens when you short together left and right channels, for example, or if you have the ground detached. It can also happen if you don't insert the headphones all the way.
Test with other headphones, and if they do the same - consider your headphone jack faulty.
I've never seen album art in BMP format, only in JPG. I won't be surprised if BMP isn't recognized. You can use converters to create one from another.
Yes, that's what i was going to do with the BMP's. But for the audio issue, the M4A's sound fine. I was playing a MP3 one time before I noticed the issue and it played fine at first then I heard the earphones pop. Maybe the earphones are bad even though they are brand new...
The difference is that M4As probably have differently differentiated stereo than MP3s, thus leading to different signs of the same problem.
I still haven't checked yet since I dont have headphones on me right now. But, as soon as I do, I will check and post my findings

Bluetooth Audio Skips/Freezes

My phone is driving me nuts.
I listen to music through my bluetooth earphones while in the gym. The music glitches every 20-30 seconds.
Also, if I skip ahead more than a couple tracks at a time, the music player freezes completely and stops playing music. The only way to get music to play again is to force quit the app, and relaunch.
I've tried different music players and it happens with all of them. Is there anything I can do to fix this? It's never happened with my other phones, only the HTC One M7, and this is the second one that does it.
Currently running the latest CM rom.
Any different ROMs that do it?

Music output often garbled

I explained this problem on reddit (r/Xiaomi/comments/enxblm/garbled_music_on_mi_9t_pro - can't post links) but no solution was found. I'll copy the description:
I have regular problems with completely garbled music output on my 9T Pro: Instead of playing a song normally, the sound output it very high pitched and completely garbled, so even recognizing the song is impossible. Also, very unpleasant to listen to.
It doesn't happen mid-song, but when a new song starts playing it has a chance to be broken like this. Restarting playback fixes it, but it might just happen again with the next song.
I've tried differend music apps (Phonograph and Play Music), so the app is probably not the cause of the problem.
It's also not limited to a specific output, I've had it happen with the built-in speakers and when using a Bluetooth device.
I've first noticed the problem shortly after the update to Android 10, so it's been going on a while.
As suggested on reddit, I've tried VLC Player which doesn't seem affected by this problem, but I don't want to use it permanently.
Another observation: Rebooting makes this go away for a while, but with time it'll happen more and more often until it occurs on almost every song change again.
Any ideas?
