Dear all,
I noticed my phone has an issue and I think this may not be rom / kernel related, so I would like to ask here.
My phone is running fine every time after booting up, however after running for a random period of times (say 2 - 7 days), it cannot play any media files. I can't play youtube (it said the video cannot be played), can't listen to mp3 (music player reported unsupported codec), ringtone disappeared (phone don't ring if i get call) and other apps failed in similar way. A reboot can solve the issue.
It is a bit annoying (especially when you when to play something and you suddenly identified that you need to wait for 5 min for a reboot), does any one experienced similar issue?
To clarify , I am running darky rom with darky kernel 1.0, however I had this issue for a few months, I was using super optimized kernel and had the same issue as well.
Same here. i'm running Darky's 9.4 but I don't know if it is related to this rom.
I don't remember that I had this problem before.

I have this problem.
(dark kernel 1.4 and darky rom 9.5)
I get this occasionally and I'm on stock 2.2.1. It's a massive pain in the arse. I thought maybe it was something to do with my external micro sd card but I formatted it and waited hours to copy all my music to it again and I'm still having problems.

So quite a few of people having this problem. Did anyone of us find out the root cause? And what's the reason that others do not suffer from this? This happened on Darky, Super Optimized Kernel, Speedmod, Stock Rom...
Some experts can help?
Also know this problem. Had it on stock and some custom roms too. Tried nearly every kernel ever available for our phone but didnt help. so it really maybe some strange Hardware issue...just speculating but when did you guys get your galaxy? cause mine was one of the `first generation` got it immediately when it was available here in germany in june/july 2010...perhaps this got fixed by Samsung later on

I've seen another thread were someone said it was called by the twitter client. They have updated the official twitter client recently, and I've not had the problem occur since. Although, it may be too soon to tell, it used to happen to me very regularly.
And just to followup, the problem hasn't gone away with the new version of twitter.
So, I'm not sure of what is the cause (or solution) to the issue.

Hi, where do you find the post also mentioned the same problem?
I am having the problem regularly too, after updating the Twitter client the same problem still happen yesterday, the phone run for around 2 days after last reboot.

Nope, i though you are talking the twitter update around 1 week ago. I just found that twitter have a new update today and never tried it if it fixed the problem. The change description do mention something similar, fixed a bug to skip music player while updating.. not sure if this is really the case.... need to test now...
good topic
I'm going to get rid of the twitter app then to see if it helps as updates don't seem to have done anything and I reformatted the sd card again and stuck everything back on there today and not only did it happen again, it's getting worse! Not only could I not play any music a minute ago, a load of my apps had vanished too! I assume ones that installed to SD by default rather than the phone storage.
If this sorts it out I'll be very happy. Twitter's crap anyway.
I've been having the same problem for a while now. I have just uninstalled Twitter and will see if that helps.
Basically all media stops working. Can't even record anything with the camcorder app. Nothing plays back. No youtube, no camcorder videos, no nothing. BUT arcmedia will open some videos sometime. HMMM weird, because other video player apps don't seem to be able to play them.
I'll give an update later today if it works. Videos normally stop working after only a few hours on my phone.

Do you guys have 8GB or 16GB models?
I've only come across this once and it was on a stock 16GB, one of the early ones, started about a week ago...upgraded to JVB seems to have solved it for now, time will tell.
16gb model, I've had 3 updates, and none have fixed the problem.

Hey guys, I searched and didn't see anything on this -- even Google did not turn up any results. I saw on the HTC One X sometimes there would be audio stutter/skips with the Beats EQ on. Sometimes when I'm playing music the audio will just glitch and stutter for no apparent reason. It is random. Has anyone else experienced this? It happened with the stock ROM as well as with ARHD7.

I am having this problem with the HTC One, streaming via bluetooth. I have raised the problem with HTC tech and waiting for a response.
I'm finding it hard to believe no one else has this problem. If it's a hardware issue I fully expect HTC to replace my unit. I will even take a recording of the stutter if necessary.
My audio will make weird noise in certain tracks and bass tones out of no where with beats on or off

I had this with my HTC One and it has been reported that it is a wifi issue. Turn it of (wifi) and it should work OK, mine does. It is a pain to keep switching wifi of and on so I found an app called A2DP volume in the play store that does it automatically.

Faulty sdcard possibly or your files are corrupt. Have you done an MP3 check on them?

I'm also experiencing this. Except mine skips/stutters even with beats off.
Running ARHD8.0 stock kernel w/purexaudio. I'm not sure which version of purexaudio the ARHD installed, but I went ahead and installed the most current version (v4.0) to see if it helps. So far no skipping, but I haven't tested that long yet..
There is a known issue that if you are using Adblock or a similar piece of software which modifies the hosts file that Pandora will stutter. Are you using an actual file, or are you using a buffered service that could be having an issue because of this?

It happens in the regular music player too; however I reinstalled ARHD8.1 and am not selecting adaway hosts files. I'll report back on the issue.. Thanks for the tip!
I am not using AdAway, and it happens in Play Music over the headphone jack. Haven't tested it with Bluetooth. I plan on installing TrickDroid sometime soon; I will definitely update this thread when I do and see if it still happens. Curiously, it's been happening less lately. Only once or twice a day.

So I reflashed ARHD8.1 without adblock and Pandora is no longer horribly stuttering. However it still has occasional stutters in both Pandora and Google Music. Still not sure what's causing it.

I reflashed without PureXAudio and the occasional skips/stutters still happens. Maybe once every couple minutes, really annoying considering this happened on my Note 2 also, which is why I bought the HTC One. I initially thought it might be a rogue app, but I don't have anything that could be causing it besides maybe groove IP disconnecting/reconnecting, or tasker. However I disabled both apps and the stutters still happen..

In terms of Bluetooth, the largest thing that could change in the near future would be if we get an official 4.2+ or the rumored 4.3 release, as the BT stack is recoded in that code base. This has the potential to change the game, but really considering your issue still seems to be isolated to your devices and not everyone's though, I've gotta think we're overlooking something. The further clue that you are saying this happened on your Note 2 as well also makes me wonder what else is happening.
Is this stuttering possibly during PBAP, MAP or some other profile saturating the connection with its own traffic? Is this on all BT devices that you've tested against or are we dealing with a dodgy car kit/speaker instead of a phone difficulty?

I dont use blue tooth, this is strictly wired 3.5mm connections. I don't have any uncommon apps besides tasker/secure settings/busybox/grooveip/xposed installer that were on both my note 2 and htc one. The only apps that have SU access are secure settings, xposed installer, seeder, solid explorer, betterbattery stats, and tasker.
I was almost sure that the stutter/skips were caused by purexaudio, but I guess not since I removed it.
I had this as well, does it sound like the stuff in this thread?:

I personally had it fixed when I flashed CM 10.1 nightlies, so I'm guessing it's a software issue, more specifically maybe even androidHD

It sounds similar, sometimes the audio would cut out entirely for a third of a second, but it was not happening nearly as frequent as yours. Mine only happened once every couple minutes. Also I have since flashed bulletproof 1.9 kernel with purexaudio 4.0 and the problem seems to have gone away. However, more testing needs to be done..
I'm thinking it has something to do with CPU usage, like it running a process in the background that disrupts the audio output. But I don't know if anything can be done about that.
Is there any way to get HTML5 video playback working in the stock browser in any of the CM10.1 derived ROMs and SCHIZOID in particular?
I've never managed to get it working. I used to always get a grey area; if you clicked on it, it'd look like it was to start playing, but it just did as it the playback had finished and showed the replay options, etc.
Surprisingly, a couple of weeks ago I reinstalled SCHIZOID (I think it was the 11JUN build) after a complete wipe and I found out it was working. But after updating to the 01JUL build, it stopped working again. So I tried a clean install of this version. Nothing, still doesn't work. I've even again clean installs of 11JUN and even 07JUN and 02JUN (in case it was one of those the one) to no avail.
It can't be impossible as it was working for a few weeks before the update, but I don't seem to find what it depends on.
Video playback using Flash doesn't seem to work anymore either in these ROMs. There seems to be a problem with the overlays, and although the video is playing and you can hear it, all you can see is a black box.
Can anybody throw any light on this? Thanks.
Nothing? Could someone at least confirm that video playback doesn't work and it's not just me who can't get it working? Cheers!
I was having the same problem with flash, I could hear the video but couldn't see it. I found a work around by accident, I taped the full screen option on the player and in full screen flash video works. Hope that helps if you're still having the problem.

Is anyone else suffering from audio stutter since the update to 4.3 and if so has anyone found a solution? I've read about lots of issues with other devices and music stutter on 4.3 but can't find anything on the Xperia Z.
I'm running the Generic UK rooted update from the Android Dev section, and I have narrowed the stutter down to when the device is sleeping.
At first I had my headphones (MDR-1RBT) on bluetooth and assumed it was that, but after connecting them with the wire the issue continued. Next I switched to Walkman player instead of the Google Music one (all music on both apps is local, on the SD card, not streamed).
The issue still continued, however, every time I wake the device the stuttering stops. I ran CPU spy to see what is going on and noticed my device has never entered deep sleep since the update (is anyone else seeing this also?)
One suggestion was that Wifi optimisation could be the issue, I turned that off, but it didn't help, and even turning wifi off doesn't seem to help, but wifi on seems to make it worse I'd say.
It's driving me insane and I use my phone/headphones to listen to music several hours a day and can't deal with the stutter, I'll have to go back to 4.2.2 unless I find a solution.

Same problem as well, except it does not stop when I wake the device - the stutter still continues no matter what. I'm using the default Walkman app as well as have tried other music apps, but same problem throughout
no issues with poweramp. try apollo or some other player (not walkman or play music) and see if that helps.
No stutter here with walkman app.
But if I run the Walkman app, the accu usage shows that Mediaserver sucks my Battery,

Same here and for @AngelBob
It's annoying and I've not been able to find a solution to it yet...
I went back to 4.2.2, so i have one question: can someone test if stuttering are not present using PowerAmp?
Thanks all

I believe it's kernel related. We had this exact issue in the past and Sony fixed with am update.
CM builds are also suffering audio 'stutters' so I think it's something we're going to have to live with until Sony push a new kernel/libs

You're right, after investigation, I can say with some certainty that the cause is the new bluetooth stack Google switched to in 4.3. I tried modifying some of the bluetooth configs but it made no difference. It'll need a fix to those libs and perhaps a kernel update as you say.
I don't know if it's been fixed in 4.4 yet, since I no longer own any nexus devices, but I wouldn't count on us getting the fix any time soon unless Sony decide to resolve it themselves.

You're right, I tested wired and it's the same problem.
In this case, I'm going to put the issue down to kernel and power save/sleep mode. I switched straight back to 4.2.2. I really like the new UI, but I can wait, hopefully 4.4 fixes it. I wouldn't count on a maintenance release from Sony before 4.4
I had this problem on 4.2.2 ROMs when I had Wi-Fi on. I think it was probably due to media server scanning for other devices over Wi-Fi network. It was going crazy when I was at uni as there were so many devices around me. Had to keep my wi-fi disabled just to listen to music.
You guys getting the same issue?

Unfortunately not, even worth wifi disabled it still happens, makes no difference.
It seems to be kernel related, perhaps something to do with cpu states or such because it only happens for me in sleep mode, it also happens when apps install so could be I/O related.
I'm starting to think sony rushed the Z 4.3 update, the T leak does not suffer this bug and it also has transparent nav bar by default!

Can we use bluetooth/a2dp libraries from other devices or versions of Android?
For example can we put Xperia Z 4.2.2 bluetooth files into the Xperia Z 4.3 firmware?

On 4.3 Drummerjeds stock pre-rooted and deodexed rom with PXA23 I don't get any stutter when streaming. Is it only a problem with music stored on the device? (Doesn't appear to be an issue either with music from Google Play music stored on my external card). Just wonder if it could be related to my having the kernel tweaks on Power Guard Pro running in learning mode, if it's related to a problem in sleep mode?
Just want to inform you guys that I have no stutter whatsoever with walkman but I'm on the official C6602 4.3 ROM, but the screen sometimes flickers in chrome, the most annoying bug so far

I only use Streaming from Play Music, issue still appears,
Though I am leaning to the kernel going to sleep causing the issue,
Hello all,
I have researched this issue and have received various answers to this issue, so I thought I would start a thread discussing specifically this topic.
When playing music on my M8, I notice no matter what Rom I am on, I notice the music that is playing slows down when the screen is off.
As if the cpu is clocking in low (my guess is 300) and is slowing playback.
I have found questionable solutions:
1. Wipe data from the music app
2. Firmware update
3. HK adsp firmware.
My device is s-off
Running beyond stock Rom
With the latest Adsp firmware flashed.
Can anyone give me some insight to why or what can I do about this?
i've had this issue too, but i've only tried viper rom. I didn't realize it was an issue with other roms as well. is it a problem with all music players? I've only seen this happen with the google play music app.
Your streaming quality is probably set to low, which can cause this kind of issue. You can change it in the settings menu of play music.
Screenshot of what I'm talking about.
I had the music I was playing downloaded on my device. When the screen was off, my music started skipping.

I was out of town a few weeks ago and this same issue began to happen. It drove me crazy that I couldn't take a walk without having the music sound like it was robot running on fumes. I did a full wipe, re-download and reflashed the Viper ROM I'm using, firmware, played with kernel and screen frequency settings, etc... Nothing I did seemed to work. Until, all of a sudden it dawned on me that it's most likely not a hardware issue and something had to be running when the screen is off causing the music to sound like that. I turned the music channel setting to "Off" and that did the trick for me. The visualizations require a bit of power and the slower cpu/gpu clock speeds when the screen is off sem to d to play a role. Hopefully this is the solution for those of you having the same problem.

Downloaded as in cached or Downloaded as in mp3 on device? I'm guessing cached, if a low quality cached file is cached, I know of no way it'll magically become higher quality...
There may be something to the music channel, but it's unlikely that would effect playback of the file. Mc just gathers info and lyrics and has a visualizer.
I'm guessing you didn't bother to check in your play music settings to see your quality settings, and instead just ignored my suggestion, cause you know what your doing. So once ya figure it out, share with the rest of the class thanks. Meanwhile I don't have the issue and am gonna go back to stream with no lag.

Are you all using a Harmon Kardon?
I have the HK version and have this issue on custom Roms too. My understanding is that its due to having the HK firmware but not the proper sound libs which match it in the ROM, since the roms are based on the standard M8.
Had trouble on:
viper rom
Gpe ROM.
No issue on Bad Boyz rom based on HK.
If you have an hk model and have this issue on viper and perhaps other sense 4.4.4 roms not HK based, they have a mod to flash the libs and firmware, just skip firmware when Aroma asks, since you already have HK firmware
My trouble cleared after flashing it.

I'm not currently on viper ROM right now as I installed the gpe lollipop version. I did actually follow your instructions, but I didn't have a control since I've changed roms. And yes I meant cached instead of download. You don't have to be a **** dude, i just gave my experience of having the same issue.
I don't understand why playing a cached version of a song would play slower when the screen is off compared to when the screen is on. Im still have the issue with gpe. My guess is something with some Roms trying to conserve more power when the screen is off.
---------- Post added at 12:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 AM ----------
Here are the results of another test I ran. I played an mp3 file on my phone using Apollo and play music. When playing the same song in Apollo with the screen on and off, the music played perfectly fine. When the same mp3 played in play music, the audio slowed when the screen was off.
Could somebody confirm that this doesn't happen in other music players?

I don't understand why playing a cached version of a song would play slower when the screen is off compared to when the screen is on. Im still have the issue with gpe. My guess is something with some Roms trying to conserve more power when the screen is off.

Here are the results of another test I ran. I played an mp3 file on my phone using Apollo and play music. When playing the same song in Apollo with the screen on and off, the music played perfectly fine. When the same mp3 played in play music, the audio slowed when the screen was off.
Could somebody confirm that this doesn't happen in other music players?

hmm sounds like a cpu is slowing down or something when the screen is off. do you have a custom kernel attached to your rom?
I had the same diagnosis of slow music but due to certain xposed modules that was controlling alarms and wakelocks, try disabling xposed framework to identify if its interfering with any custom ROM framework modification

Hello all,
I have researched this issue and have received various answers to this issue, so I thought I would start a thread discussing specifically this topic.
When playing music on my M8, I notice no matter what Rom I am on, I notice the music that is playing slows down when the screen is off.
As if the cpu is clocking in low (my guess is 300) and is slowing playback.
I have found questionable solutions:
1. Wipe data from the music app
2. Firmware update
3. HK adsp firmware.
My device is s-off
Running beyond stock Rom
With the latest Adsp firmware flashed.
Can anyone give me some insight to why or what can I do about this?

I am not using a custom ROM just a stock version of Lollipop and am having this same issue on my LG G3. In my case, it's downloaded files on my device as well as cached playback.
The screen being off definitely seems to be a trigger.
I've just started experiencing this with Google Play Music on 6.0 GPE. Did anybody ever find a fix?

I had this exact thing happen on older ROMs as well as the 6.0 GPE. In the past, I flashed a custom kernel and turned on "high quality audio" using Trickster Mod. Although, I've been running 6.0 GPE un-rooted for a while so that's not an option.
Not sure if it is a permanent fix yet, but I turned on the equalizer under the settings menu and I haven't had the slow audio problem for a few songs now.
