I have searched some forums but so far none have been able to answer my problem. It seems that whenever I play music in the car with the screen locked that the my phone plays back with a bit of a studder. I found one post that suggested wiping the dalvik and cache might help, but I haven't had much luck. I've tried multiple Mixzing, Poweramp, Google Music, Fusion and the stock player without much luck. Any help would be appreciated!

ive had the same thing, its actualy a hardware problem of the car...
aka i use an aux cord, and the cord was brand new, and it was the jack and i thought it was the phone...nope
---------- Post added at 04:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 AM ----------
so i would make sure
1. That the music playback is NOT choppy when played back on other devices using the same car and same cord or usb or what ever.
2. Make sure that play back is normal through headphones or speakers
If both of the above are true, only then can you assume its a software issue because that means that its the phones problem and not an auxilary cod jack problem or something like that.
IF number 1 is false, and it still is choppy no matter the device, THEN go through the jack that you are plugging your phone in and make sure its clean and isnt bent or something.
Basically make sure its not hardware first.

Thanks for the reply! After a lot of troubleshooting, I discovered that a task killer app was installed on my phone. I think I must have installed it when I first got an android phone not knowing the repercussions and its just stuck with me. Nevertheless deleting the task killer app fixed the problem.

What I learned was if you can verify that it is not a hardware issue make super sure you do not have a task killer installed because those will make for a bad day when it comes to playing music. Specifically when playing music when the screen is locked.

I don't know if it holds true for every phone, ROM, and kernel, but it might be the first place people troubleshoot after it can no longer be a hardware issue. I also suppose not every task killer is as villainous as others. From what I read on forums most people came to the conclusion that task killers actually do more harm than good because Android uses RAM and tasks very similarly to Linux. Linux loads programs onto RAM in order to enhance performance as opposed to leaving large parts of RAM unused. Killing these tasks can hurt phone performance, which is why my music, and particularly high quality music, was choppy.

Hey, I stumbled upon this site after having owned my qtek for a week now. First WM based phone that I have had that ive added various software to and basically had a bit of fun with. But without going on too much here I will list what questions/problems I have and hope someone can help. I’ll lst them here instead of creating multiple threads to save on clutter
My list
My phone often freezes up or switches off, is there a fault with the OS/device? The freezing up was happening before I ever installed a thing so I cant put it down to it being my fault for once =] ive checked for updates or posts about it but haven’t been able to find much that has helped. It ran a bit slow the first day i got it after having two prgrams running. i often check to make sure if i have fully closed down apps after using them
Is there any way to stop the Echo the receiver hears when I make or receive calls? This also occurs when using skype.
I brought an i-mate Pocket PC Headset Adaptor (2.5mm to 3.5mm headphone jack) so I could use my phone as an mp3 player when im out and about. The only problem is that the headphones I used (sony in ear bud things) only played sound out of the left speaker. I haven’t used the hands free headphones that came with the phone but they have a left and right speaker, so I need to install a driver or something as so I can hear sound out of both headphone speakers? if not thats 13notes down the trálét
What are the key procedures you should follow to optimise your pocket pc? Including regedits =]
ive seen that you can adjust the CPU speed, is it wise and if so, whats the best processing speed? Or is the “turbo speed” function any good? Does it cause freezing up or shorter hardware life span?
Setting profiles, do I really need to install something in order to customise
and change profiles?
If I wanted to develop my own programs, what software would I need and where can I get it for cheap/free?
Sorry for the long list, ive tried hunting for the info as best I can but obviously not done too well
Cheers for any responses with assistance/answers :thumbsup:

If you received the device and it was still running, chances are it's been operational a while and had numerous programs added & removed, will have fragmented memory etc. The best thing is to start with a cold hard reset (leave the main battery out for at least an hour to drain the backup battery) then start from scratch & set the device up. This cures about 75% if these kiind of ills. I'll assume you have it connected with activesync by now, so will have a backup of contacts & numbers etc.

I dont use mine for skype so couldnt comment. when doing a normal soft reset note down the numbers that come up on the starting screen: these are the update numbers of the various ROMS in the device - you may have an early 'buggy' rom and may wish to consider a flash upgrade - many of us have & it;s worth it for improved signal quality/reception & stability. you'll find all the answers you seek using the search tool

The adaptor I brought had the same problem at first. You will find the socket is slightly recessed, so a normal fat adaptor cant push in far enough into the socket to engage the contacts properly, hence the music in one ear only. Try out the built-in ones, and you should be able to see how the plug pushes in further because of it's slim dimensions. Either cut your adaptor down if possible or find a slimmer adaptor!

Turbo mode is slightly more responsive, and so should shorten battery life a small amount, but the screen chews up far more battery than running the CPU faster: try running a week on each setting and see if you notice a performace/quality difference. There are utilities to alter the CPU speed using registry tweaks: some of the settings will cause the PDA to lock requiring soft or sometimes hard resets. My personal take is to leave things be & run on turbo, ymmv.

I am running CMs 4.0.2 and electrum drum machine app just gives me a static sound when I load a sound...don't know why just does so now I'm kind stuck with an app that doesn't work and I'm out 3 buck.
Does anyone have the same problem or knows how to fix it please help.
Did the app ever work?
I just bought this 2 days ago and I'm on CM4.0.2 also. It works fine for me. I did notice right off the bat that Kick1 sounds like static/white noise. The thought it was messed up did cross my mind until I tried a different sample. The speaker is so crummy in the phone, that it just sounded bad.
Hope you get it worked out! It's a fun little app
If it sounded bad from the start I would email the dev and see what he is going to do about it.
Like Argusi was saying the speaker is probably the problem. Not really much the developer can do about that. Try using it with external speakers and see if it sounds better. Another option would be to use samples that fall within the frequency range of the internal speaker.
It sounds okay through headphones. It's not BFD or Addictive Drums, but for a couple bucks, it's fun to play with
Yeah i know its not my speaker cause when i play music on it, it sounds fine. I tried using my headphones but that didnt do anything but make my ear drums hurt lol.
So i guess ill mess around with it for a while to see if i can get it to work if not i gotta email niko the dev and see if i can get a refund.....hope i can get it to work.
Thanks everyone for your help!
***deleted*** .. sorry, wrong thread
Hi Rrod15,
Niko Twenty here, the dev. Obviously the app was only tested on normal 1.5 firmware, I think you have custom ROM now, but just a few quick questions:
What version of the drum do you have - is it the latest?
Are all the sounds not working (static sound) or is it just when you tried to load an external sample?
And then the next question - is the external sample from one of the sample packs?
If you are trying to use your own samples they have to be 16 bit mono 22Khz, otherwise they may not load correctly and you will get static.
Let me know how it goes! I can certainly offer a refund if you can't get it to work.
Thanks!
-niko twenty
Yea i got the lastest update not sure exact ver. But its the newest.
The samples im loading r from the add on sample packs u provided and they are all static.
It worked for like a min then when i plug my headphones in i still hear it though my phone speaker pretty weird.
Now on CM 4.0.4
Hi,
One thing you could check is to load up your sdcard into your PC and go to /sdcard/electrum/samples
and then browse thru any folders/samples there and make sure they are there and not zero size, etc. You should be able to play the WAV samples on the PC right off the sdcard.
That would be one thing to check next.

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?:

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.
this was a tough one to search for and I apologize if this has been asked.
I tried an S4 and determined the beautiful screen consumed a bit too much battery, and the speaker was horrible... two features that I use a lot.
however, one thing I learned very quickly that I attributed to the latest android build was that a song played through chrome DIDNT interrupt the playing track (youtube was still interrupted). however with HTC One it is interrupted and this is quite frustrating esp whe I really enjoy soundcloud and grooveshark d their epic mobile sites for listening to music not available elsewhere.
perhaps theres an easy fix I hope so!
I have been attempting a root but have been thwarted by a strange driver issue, potentially a conflict of the S4 drivers I had ... and will next try a dif PC for the fastboot commands.

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.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
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.
Sprint HK

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.

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.
