i am having problems with my stock headsets
the control buttons dont work at all.
i cant pause/unpause or change track while listening to music
i cant pick up or hang up a call either.
anyone facing the same issues?
any fixes?
Could be two things.
Do you use a task killer? Make sure you're not killing the required service or app.
If you have installed other music players they may have taken over the controls, to overcome this you can reinstall the stock music app or w/e your using.

i've had pandora, but issues still apply to pandora as well
i've wiped and tried the headset with the music player right after before installing any other apps, and still i have the same issues
Uninstall any media player app you have installed, it could be interfering with headset clicks.
Use default media player and enable headset controls in configuration.
Put the default media player widget on any of the main screens.
If it doesn't work yet. Try installing DroidShuffle and check again.
there's also an app on the market called fix headset controls or restore music controls.. something like that which restores the head phone buttons to original.
Hi Suddenly my phone can not play mp3 files. I'm using player pro, and default player 'music player' both of them. If I try to play it the "Sorry the player does not spport this type of audio file" message keep coming out. Even it can not play video, and it says it has problem with playing video. Even the ringtone I made from an mp3 file can not be played right now. So when it get calls it gives silence.
I've heard that there's some apps for playing media files, I might miss that now. can anybody tell me where i can get those apps?
Do you have any idea about this? I rooted the phone, but didn't change the rom. it has still 2.1.

I'm having the same issue after the Froyo update. The only solution I've found is to reboot which, to me, is bull****.
I have two Captivates running Phoenix Ultimate and they have both exhibited this. rebooting does fix it but I don't really consider that a fix.
Pro Player is the prefered player but I noticed it does this with the stock player as well.
Did anyone find a permanent fix for this?
My Captivate was working fine but started doing this randomly after I upgraded to 2.2. I will not be able to play any media, won't connect to youtube either. Of course the reboot works, but I miss calls because it randomly stops playing my custom ringtone.
Same here. Anyone have a fix?
Not playing mp3 suddenly
I am also having this problem with audio and video files not playing.Yes, reboot works but is not a fix!
I am also having this problem. It happens like twice a day now, really starting to piss me off. Any solution get?
U see alot of posts but no info that is needed to help. No rom version, no modem, no kernel info. All these things matter.
Mine is SGH-I896
Firmware 2.2
Baseband I896UXJL1
Kernal 206.32.9
Build FROYO.UXJL1
This is getting so annoying...
I am on 2.3.3 (Mosaic III, a jvh build) using X-cal's 1.2 no voodoo reorient jvh kernel. Previously, I used Phoenix and mostly speedmod kernels. Since upgrading to Froyo, I cannot play 95% of my music.
Currently, the included Mosaic music players (both stock 1.1.1 and miui v. 1) only play about 5% of my non-drm mp3s which are stored on my external sd card. (The error says "sorry, the player does not support this audio file" or something like that; but they are all mp3s with Id3v2.2 tags. I painstakingly checked. 95% are rendered unknown artist and are unplayable by the music players.) I have deleted and reloaded the music to no avail. Again, I had the same problem under Froyo (Phoenix Roms) but no problems under Eclair. I don't think this is a Rom based issue but I'm not prepared to rule it out.
I have tried at least four other music apps and they all have the same problem.
I will try to remove both included music apps (which are regarded as system apps) and reinstall.
Question: is there an explanation as to what is causing this? Whether or not there is an explanation, has anyone found a resolution?
This has been a frustrating several months and I thought, foolishly, that Gingerbread would solve the issue.
Any relevant insight on this (ruled out culprits, etc.)?

I was having the same issue and I also couldn't play any flash videos. Once I unistalled Flash Player and reinstalled it, no more issues playing MP3s or flash videos.

Thanks! I'll give that a shot. Where did you get the flash player to reinstall?

Unfortunately, this still doesn't work. I'm completely perplexed. I use my phone as an mp3 player. But now, that functionality is useless.

This might sound VERY WEIRD, but trust me, remove the official Twitter app. I was facing this issue as well and when I Googled around, I found that other people were running into this as well and was in-fact caused by the Twitter app.
Cappy Still Won't Play MP3s.

I found that answer too but, fortunately or unfortunately, I don't have the twitter app and never have had the twitter app.
Is it possible to bump this problem/error to the Team Phoenix Devs?
Just to restate the problem: My phone refuses to play mp3's. Since Phoenix Rising Froyo Roms (using Speedmod kernels) to Mosaic III (using X-cal's 1.2 no voodoo reorient jvh kernel) I cannot play my non-drm mp3 music collection stored on my external sd card. The error says "sorry, the player does not support this audio file" or something like that. I've only used Team Phoenix Roms. I've searched far and wide on the Internet, I've reformatted my SD card, installed different music apps, uninstalled and reinstalled music apps, changed the mp3 ID3 tags on iTunes, tried an mp3tagger on the phone, reinstalled Adobe Flash 10.3, cleared music app caches, rebooted, deleted and reloaded the music all to no avail.
Is there something i have not tried? Can Team Phoenix help solve this dilemma?
Short Mp3 ringtones also do not work. :-(
This seems to happen to my youtube app also. Just stops playing videos and phone needs a restart... So I can't listen to music or watch youtube videos.. happening at least once a day now..
For Music:
Try switching your id3 tags to v2.3. I had v2.4, switched to v2.1 when this problem occurred only to discover that only old Android releases had problems with v2.3. (I'm led to believe Android still has problems with v2.4.) I now hear v2.3 should be read.
Based on this message from Apr 11, 2010, on the official Android open issues debugger list, several users reported improved functionality after employing the following: After switching tags, Go to Menu, Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, Options Filter All, Media Storage, Clear Data, Power off the phone, power on the phone.
Youtube: I'm sure you have done this but have you tried different versions of Adobe Flash (latest version 10.3, available in Market) and uninstalling twitter (if you have twitter installed)? Did you clear youtube's memory cache, uninstall, reboot, and reinstall?
Hope something here works for someone. I haven't be able to try the music suggestions yet.
Captivate - Mosaic III
Progress!
Update:
So I decided to go back to a music syncing program to see if that would solve the problem of making the music playable. In particular, I went back to Doubletwist (which was buggy as hell and why I dumped it). So I deleted all of the songs from Android, deleted the media storage cache, deleted the old library file restored in Double Twist, and synched as outlined above.
Result: Roughly 60 - 70% of the music works! The syncing took nearly 12 hours to load 20GBs of music. When I would simply "transfer" it by selecting and dragging, it would take 3 hrs. Unfortunately there are still 139 unknown artists -- even if songs are from artists with other (if not the same) readable album.
Why do some of the songs play and others do not? Not sure just yet. Will investigate further.
Note: If after syncing Doubletwist, and your playlists don't show up, according to this XDA post I hear a reboot may work.
Again, hope this helps someone.
Has anyone else here had luck installing and using a third party equalizer and google play music?
I am having difficulty using a third party equalizer. Google Play Music seems to ignore the equalizer every time a new song starts. However, if I skip the song to to the middle, the equalizer kicks back in. I can't seem to find much info about other people having this problem.
Steps to reproduce
1. Disable Audio Effects
2. Install and start a third party equalizer
3. Play a song in Google Play Music
4. Skip to the middle of the song
5. Press the next or previous song button
The audio goes back to "unequalized".
Things I have tried
1. Freezing Audio Effects
2. Installing multiple third party equalizers
3. Rebooted multiple times
4. Unistalled Google play Music updates
5. Disabled many apps
6. Disabled no aps
Other Info
* Moto X
* Verizon
* Rooted
* All Access music subscription
have you tried VIPER4Android? Its got its own thread on this forum if you search for it. Its the best EQ I've used. I also ran into EQ issues with gMusic but this one works great. I have an S4, not a Moto X but it should work anyway.
Actually just finished installing V4A. I can get it it kick in but then if I restart the song or it goes to the next song, it stops.
I can't get local pinned music to use any equalizer at all. V4A "driver status" says that its not processing.

What equalizer are you using? I have awesome beats with nexmusic, you have to find the right combination, if my memory serves me right, play music would fc when I used awesome beats. I'm firing play music up with awesome beats. I let you know if I have any FC's with awesome beats. Nexmusic is very similar to Apollo music, sleep timer and you can access the equalizer quickly unlike playmusic
Edit: no FC's with play music and awesome beats I also left all other equalizers active. I did nor freeze or remove Audio effects , also have music fx and noozioxide

I have tried about 5-8 different equalizers. I mostly use my phone to listen to the Play All Access stuff.
It seems that I can't disable the stock music app in the app settings. I wouldn't mind it being there, however it conflicts with every other music player.
For example when I listen music in Google Music, and I press the button on my headset I would expect that GM would stop playing music, but instead the stock music app starts playing.
Also on the home screen I can't control GM, just the stock app.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Root your device and either freeze it with titanium backup or while rooted just delete the. Apk

Thanks, I've removed it, and it's almost perfect. Now the stock music app can't interfere with other apps.
There is only one small issue left but I believe there is no solution for this: The music controls on the lock screen does not work. There is no music control widget, only the one included in the lock screen, which only controls the stock app (which is not removed, so it is useless)
Anyway, now at least I can control playback from my headset. Thanks.
My music controls work on play music and Poweramp when I deleted the stock music app. My issue is that the controls work but there is no album art which I hate.
Hi!
I wonder if anybody else has encountered this issue and could help me with the strange bug that has started to happen after the latest update (CLT-L29 9.1.0.328).
The stock Music Player starts automatically playing songs at random times and it's really beginning to be annoying. I never even use the stock player, since I stream all my music with Google Play Music which is assigned as the default player. The only MP3 I have on my phone is the song that I use as a wake up.
I was wondering if I could revoke stock player's file premission without messing up the Google's Clock app which I use as an alarm clock?
Thank for your help in advance!
Yes it's fine to do that.. you should go one further and remove it completely along with 100's of other crapware.
