Notifications won't play through headset - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know if this is a new "feature" but I hate it. I listen to spotify all day at work and I don't like having my phone on vibrate when it's on my desk. Every other phone I have used would route notifications through the headset when it's plugged in but on the One it always plays through the speakers. I don't want my ringer on at work and now I am forced to keep it on silent so I'm missing texts unless I keep checking my phone.
Ppl have recommended soundabout from the play store and it has worked on other phones but it doesn't work for the One. Any advice?

Thanks. I'm on AR8.0 but I have had the problem on every Rom/kernel I've tried. Can't remember if it worked on stock. Anyone else?

Spotify question

I got my AHD yesterday. Had wifi problems at first but I seem to have figured that out. Now I'm having problems with spotify. It fc's like crazy, will freeze up and stop playing. And especially if I use the lock screen controls. Can anyone else test and see how it acts on your phone? I'm wondering if it's my phone or the AHD in general.

I have the exact same problem :/
Except it's on my phone.
It started after the new radio spotify update.
Just because I wrote this and I rebooted my phone it seems like it works again ^^

There are a few apps that probably haven't been tested on the AHD yet. Spotify and Hulu for example.
Until the company tests them, there will probably be issues.
My Spotify basically doesn't work on my AHD.

Yea its pretty tricky. I found that if I get it to play and immediately leave the app it'll usually continue to play through my list. As soon as I try to select songs or do any basic action in the app it just freezes up and fc's.

Has anyone successfully managed to use earphones to skip to next track?

I have now tried a couple of different earphones and also a couple of earphone button apps, but I still can't skip tracks with the mic button double tap - the phone instead re-dials the last used phone number.. I am beginning to think it may be a fatal flaw in the phone.
Any help here would be appreciated.
Thanks

I got a set of urbeats bundled with the phone. They allow the skip track and other features perfectly.

With mine, I got a similar set but it was not branded as urbeats.
Did yours have more than 1 button, ie. A dedicated skip track button, or do you have to double tap the singular mic button like me?
Are you using the default music player?
Thanks

Here is a pic of the controls. Works on the default player.
Can test a few more players if you like.
Thank you very much for your help. I now know what I need to at last get the track change stuff working.

Where did you purchase these if you don't mind my asking? I've never seen beats that say they're specifically for HTC phones..
I got them free from Phones4u.

I also have the urbeats headphones and the next and previous tracks buttons work perfectly on both the stock player and the Google music player. On the pocketcasts app they skip forward or backward 20 seconds. In short these headphones seem to work perfectly with the HTC One and have great sound quality too. I also got them free from phones4u.

The urbeats headphones were only given to the first 500 people who preordered the phone. I'm sure the op is talking about the headphones that come bundled with the phone itself. The headphones that come in the box don't allow track skipping, only play, pause & accept calls

If the remote is built into the headphones it should work yes? I have the earpod from apple will they work? (or other apple headphones with remote built in)
Also have a white pair of in ear beats with remote
Will these work to change the songs??

I have tried one time a Iphone 4 headphone on a HTC Device and it works perfectly. The only issue is the volume up & down doesn't work. But play, pause, next, previous track, mic all work flawlessly.

[Q] Audio_out_4 wakelock?

Does anyone know what causes this? Third day with this device, came from a sensation but I never had this issue. Looked up the issue and a post Said that it's caused by playing audio with the screen off...
I didn't do that?
And the 2 posts were from people with HTC ones.. anyone know why?

thats triggered when you have notification comes in. when notifications come in while screen off and you play a sound it triggers the audio_out_4
set your phone to vibrate and it wont trigger.

Thanks, you helped me figure out the problem! It was hockey and goal alerts from 2 programs. Disabled them and voila! So apparently it could come from apps too! Thanks!

[Q] Beats Audio: Unable to turn it on.

I got a brand new HTC One delivered today and after turning it on to try the audio and check the difference with/without beats I realised I couldn't turn it on. Tried to plug the headphones, nothing changed, looked into the settings again not change. I tried without FM radio, HTC Music, Youtube app, Google Play Music app and the end result was always the same, no change.
Does anyone knows how to fix this? I search and haven't found any solution on XDA neither in the whole web.

You mean that the toggle switch is greyed out and won't let you switch it on/off?

Nexus 6 T-Mo not handling calls well

Hey guys I am using a Nexus 6 stock and rooted with no xposed or anything like that. Just recently I've noticed that (after being told ive been ignoring calls) that NY phone doesn't handle calls well anymore. Now it wasn't always like this and I haven't done anything out of the ordinary either. I can place a call and everything is well but when I receive one my phone app 'stops' and blocks me from being able to answer or decline the call, any idea what's going on?
Attached is what i see when I get a call andddd the apps that are using root right now.
Actually just came to me only changes that have been made besides apps updating is me making a chopped mp3 as a ringtone and another chopped mp3 as a text notification sound, shouldn't bother my calling though right?
Any help is appreciated:thumbup:

i get that same notification on my phone but i havnt had any issues about missing calls or anything. my notification is just while i am randomly using the device. i am using a nexus 6 rooted and currently running CM12 20150210 nightly rom. i have no clue what the notification is about though.
I really don't want to factory reset after getting everything the way I want it but its looking more and more like all I can do? I'd rather flash a new Rom (waiting for the CM12 monthlies) but idek if flashing a new ROM would help I have no idea what's going in, any other ideas?

I need for apps to not randomly stop working lol I haven't heard much buzz about this though so I don't think its a wide spread problem but I'm sure there are are other people with the sane problem
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
I'll be honest though about the CM12 nightlys. They are actually pretty stable. I havnt had many bugs or glitches besides that phone not working one. In the past devices I have had there were more bugs with the nightly but the nexus ones are pretty decent. They are still very similar to stock OS but some addons
I just noticed this today with the latest CM12 nightly. The phone app crashes on any inbound call, the report says something about a null pointer exception. Hopefully this will be figured out with tonight's release. I kindof need my phone to be a phone...
Hey okay so turn of events it seems like my ringtone actually had something to do with it...posting this to help any future forum searchers for this problem...so after I changed my ringtone the first time, it seems that the phone app had called it Unknown ringtone, probably to show that there was a problem as the ringtone I actually chose had a name, (I guess it couldn't find the mp3 to play when it received a call and so it freaked out whenever a call came through..but since that ring tone doesn't play with outgoing calls, that ability wasn't affected? Idk all speculation
Anyway after I went into the phone app and chose one of the standard ringtones, I called my phone and it rang! And so I changed it again to the cut mp3 I wanted and it rang! I'm guessing the problem stemmed from the way the no3 cutting app applied the mp3 as my ringtone...
Not to witchhunt or anything but the app I used was called MP3 Cutter by accountlab. The app has great reviews and does was it says but just a warning if you cone across the same problem!

You wouldn't happen to have the phone on 'priority' or 'none' mode would you? It's sort of the new silent mode on android 5.0
