So I rooted last night and happy that I did but when I listen to music on my head phones the ones that come with the phone or my skull candys the bass will distort here and there mostly on certain bass lines this happens on all music apps I use power amp stock music player. I read somewhere that this was a bug on HTC part is there a fix anywhere for this does any one else experience this issue just curious cause it gets annoying even happens if beats is enabled or disabled. Also it was like this before root.

Hello everyone
Bought my Xperia T on white about two weeks ago. It's a really awesome phone, don't have anything to complain about. Good battery, nice UI, etc.
Updated it in the first day to 4.1.
However, I've got 2 weird audio bugs:
1. No matter what music player I have, music occasionaly skips a few seconds. I tried:
-other music players
-re-inserting my 32GB microSD card back.
Nada, the bug is still there.
Gotta mention something: I don not use any equalizer presets or ClearSound/Bass/Whatever music effect Sony gives me. I find them all rubbish.
2. I occasionally have issues when I pull my headphones out... I am used to Android phones, and I know there are separate volumes (I had a Galaxy Spica and a Moto Defy+) but this one has a really weird behavior. It sometimes doesn't "understand" that the headphones are out. But that can be solved easily, by re-inserting the headphones. Lately, for some reason, it didn't happen too much. I don't know, I have a pair of small in-ear Sennheiser headphones, not Sony ones...
3. How can I properly give album art to my music? Media Go tried something, but didn't do much... should I try via Wi-Fi? I've got about 2055 songs. Should it take a while?
Many, many thanks.
Poweramp->settings->audio->advanced tweaks->audio buffer size / audio thread priority. Have you tried changing those?
Hy, for me when i use my beats by dre headphone in Bluetooth with the maximum sound, the sound is low. I did to make a "begin of call" the sound level Bluetooth go up like in ICS. After a few minutes if i stop the music, the sound is low another time.
Any idee?

Something similar happens to me sometimes where the music will just stop playing only to resume a few seconds later for like no reason (no incoming calls or anything). Sometimes it will stop playing at the Walkman icon in the status bar disappears so I have to go back to Walkman app and start the song over. Not really sure why it does this. Haven't had any issues with 4.2.1 yet though, seemed to be an ICS issue for me at least. I noticed my Xperia ion did the same thing but it was much worse with the ion. My roommate has the ion and just updated to ICS and told me it happens to her still even post update.
For the record I have the AT&T Xperia TL and a 32GB SD card with 95% of my music on the card.

Seems that PowerAmp works really well, however been wondering if there's a free alternative out there.

Not any good...
Got to work this morning. Plugged in my headphones and started to listen to music using Google play. It sounded terrible very soft a high amount of background noise. Pretty much unusable. Played the same track using HTC music app and it sounds perfect no issues what so ever. Then tried streaming so music using MOG and it sounds terrible again. Anyone else have this problem?
If it matters headphones being used are vsonic gr07.

I had an issue in car when I tried to play music from htc music app through aux/headphone jack, the music was jumpy and distorted. Had it synced to my bluetooth which it usually defaults to but it didnt this time because I plugged in aux 2nd. Anyway, did a reboot and turned off bluetooth and it worked fine. I'd try testing it with just one active connection, then add more (bluetooth/streaming etc) to see if thats your problem.
A reboot took care of it. Not sure what it was.

Hey guys,
I've been using an HTC One for two weeks now, and was really looking forward to using it as a music-listening device. However, whenever I'm listening to music on a low volume setting through headphones I can hear a hissing sound that gets louder and softer as the music changes. Since then, I have tested this with another HTC One, various headphones, and have come to the conclusion that something inside the phone is causing noise. As soon as I open up the 'Music' app or any application that turns on the headphone jack, I can hear the hissing. It's very noticeable when listening to music at night in the lower volume settings. The same files I'm listening to have no noise on my blackberry or on my iPod.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
I can only suggest you exchange for another unit. Yup... I saw that you said you had tried another One.
I came from Nexus 4. My first Nexus 4 had a defective earpiece and the same hissing noise you described from the headphone jack. Did a RMA with Google, and the second Nexus 4 had a perfect earpiece but still some hissing noise from the headphone jack. I didn't want to bother with the RMA process again so I just lived with it.
Then I got my HTC One. Sound quality is miles better than the Nexus 4 and I hear no hissing noise from the headphone jack.
While the chance is slim, it is possible to get defective unit twice in a row. The hissing noise is probably due to in proper shielding or poor wiring inside the phone.

Hi,
Try turning off beats audio and see if it still happens.

I would agree with gustav30. I have noticed this recently, but it only happens when I am toggling the beats audio on and off. I think it might have something to do with the different audio qualities depending on what type of thing you are doing i.e. streaming music, listening to downloaded music, watching YouTube, etc..
Its beats audio. Turn it off and the hissing decreases. You will always have some hissing though no matter what phone and headphones you have.
Beats lowers this hiss, but its still there.
This hiss exists for all android devices I've used and heard when using high sensitivity IEMs.
Considering going back to apple... *sigh*
Has anyone here experienced prominent crackling sound listening to music at full volume when using HTC headphones supplied with the phone ?
I tried using the same headphones on One X but no crackling sound or even on the computer.
It does dis for all the songs I play at full volume on HTC ONE. (it does reduce the crackling noise if I turn off the beats audio).
So wut do u think cud be the problem ?
The headphones, the phones hardware or the beats audio.
This problem has been reported on the Samsung Galaxy Note, S II, Droid DNA and others, but I didn't know it was also a problem on the HTC First until I got mine. Whenever my music goes to a low volume with my headphones on, the sound just mutes. It comes back when the music goes louder. If I increase my volume, it cuts off less. At full volume, it does not cut out at all. I have no problems playing through the speakers.
One needs to listen to audio with short silences to be able to notice it. Some say it is related to Beats Audio, with the problem going away if Beats Audio is turned off; I don't think that is a possibility on the HTC First, though.
I use my phone mostly to listen to music and streaming radio, so this is a deal breaker for me. Are any of you experiencing the same problem?
i can not confirm the problem.
i tested my HTC with BOSE and Pioneer headphones and do not have any problems with both.
no matter if i play music loud or very low volume.
will test it tomorrow with my monster beats and let u know.
HTC Support on Sound Cut-Off Issue
For the sake of completeness, I will let you know that I called HTC Support about this sound cut-off issue. The person on the phone was very nice and tried to help me for some 40 minutes.
The bottom line is that he couldn't reproduce the issue in the few songs he played (which didn't surprise me). He made some note for the developers but I don't think anything will come out of it.
In the meantime, I found a good song to test this strange behavior: "brainstew" by Green Day. Plug your headphones to your HTC First and listen to the first 30 seconds at low volume. It you hear distortion as the sound volume changes, please let me know (right now it seems that I'm the only one noticing this).
Thanks!
I'm seeing this as well. Has nobody else seen this?

So the built in EQ seems to work lovely when I plug in my headphones on anything like Pandora, YouTube and even notification noises on my phone. However, if I just use the phone speaker the equalizer has no effect at all. Not a single change in sound from Extreme Bass to Vocalizer setting when watching YouTube and Pandora. Does anyone know why it only works via headphones and not over the phone speaker?
Seems to work just fine for me. Having owned an HTC One before this, the external speaker quality is a definite step back. That said, I can notice a difference when I change the equalizer settings, albeit the fact that the audio pauses between settings (when playing on YouTube) makes it harder to tell.

weird
Can you test it on Pandora too? I really can't tell a difference only when headphones are plugged in
I think I can, however like YouTube it is a very subtle difference between even what should be opposite ends of eq. (Extreme bass brilliant treble)
Edit: I noticed the largest difference when using Play Music.

I think Pandora is the only thing that doesn't let the equalizer affect for some reason. It's just weird on headphones it works amazing
