Hi guys, Ive searched through the forums and havent seen anyone with this problem.
Whenever i use the walkman app it continually pauses itself, rarely reaching the end of a single song. It seems to be worse when playing thourgh headphones/aux normally only lasting 5 seconds max before pausing again. Ive downloaded other music players and they all had the same problem. Music is unplayable through it. Note this is different to the 'lagging' some people have experienced.
I have an orange contract with their 'swapables' and so have a subscription through that with Deezer. Deezer has none of the above issue for downloaded, streamed or local files however the app is awfully designed as you cant organise a library via artist/album. I therfore only have a few playlists and about 20 albums at a time on the phone. The reason i can't just use Deezer instead is, a few artists i listen to a lot (e.g. AC-DC) aren't available on it...
I have factory resetted the phone and upgraded firmware etc and no improvement
Any help would be appreciated

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 !
Okay, I'm a noob and I admit it. I've been lurking for several months, though, so that has to be worth something! And yes, I did a search before deciding to ask this question.
Anyway, I've unlocked my Tilt although I have not changed the ROM from the stock AT&T load. A few days ago I loaded some MP3's onto my SD card and began trying to use my tilt as an MP3 player. After about 30 minutes of playing using Media Player, the sound suddenly quit. ONLY THE OUTPUT FROM MEDIA PLAYER WAS AFFECTED. I shut down media player and restarted it. No effect. I tried HTC Album. No effect. It required a soft boot to get the sound back. I figured this was a blip, and so I tried again. The same problem occurred again. Rebooted the phone. The third time around, I noticed that the audio seemed to quit right after the music paused while Media player attempted to buffer the file. After buffering was complete, media player continued to play the song, but no more audio. BTW, this is true whether I use a wired head set or try and use the internal speaker.
Does anyone have any idea on how I might fix this problem? It doesn't seem like a media player problem, since HTC album refuses to make noise after this occurs.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
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...
Hey guys,
Love my new S6, because of memory limitations, I'm using spotify more than the music player. I noticed that when I listen to music, the volume keeps changing by itself (but remains at the same "number" that I set), I believe it's an EQ problem due to the voice/instrument equalizer function that keeps adjusting one VS the other. I was able to downgrade the amazon appstore still has version 2.6.0.813 and it's better (but not perfect yet, I hope they fix this bug in the next spotify update, just wanted to share in case you though you were going crazy (as I did).

Disabling Nuplayer does not work
solution from the previous post does not work, I and others tested it and spotify volume is still messed up with Nuplayer disabled, downgrading seems to be the only solution as of now, sorry for the confusion

actually, I've noticed this problem with Google Play music as well.. I'm not using the equalizer.. for no apparent reason, at some points in certain songs, the volume will inexplicably lower, never quite recovering.. weird
same here. thought i was going deaf bc i had the volume up to 80%
Is it happening with your stock music player? I disabled Nuplayer and spotify is still misbehaving but the Samsung player works fine. I didn't find a Samsung user forum to report the problem but will look more into it.
old version works
Using S6 Edge, had this problem myself with spotify - can confirm using the previous version of spotify fixes the problem.
Agree there's points where it stoll changes volume ever so slightly but definatley a big improvement.
Can't post link to download due to new user restrictions.
Thanks to OP for posting his findings. Big help.
Peace.
I have been going back and forth with Spotify support for weeks on this issue, and it's been escalated to a Tier 2 person who I've been working with for almost a week now. Specifically, my problem is that the sound on any given song will vary throughout the song...it will start at whatever volume I have it set at, then suddenly get about 25% quieter for about 10-20 seconds, then go back up to original volume. This happens in almost a cyclical fashion my entire time listening to Spotify on my phone...whether it be through headphones, phone speak, or a bluetooth speaker. Spotify support even gave me another test account to try, which this issue also happen in on my phone....and they logged into my account on their end and done extensive listening tests, but are not able to replicate on their end. They had me try everything...clearing cache, trying with volume normalization ON, then trying with it OFF, WiFi only, data only, listening to cached music with no data turned on, re-installing, rebooting, updating, deleting all Spotify files/folders from the file manager, listening with corded headphones, bluetooth headphones, phone speaker, bluetooth speaker, etc. They really feel at this point that it's the Samsung Galaxy S6 that doesnt play nicely with Spotify, but they cannot figure out why. I'm still troubleshooting with them but so far no solution, only a ton of things ruled out as culprits. =(
This is a few days old but do you have sound alive enabled?

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?
