Hi, I Have strange problem with my brand new Xperia Z3 Compact. I streams my music from Z3C to my Pioneer MVH-X360BT car audio. Every few minutes there is a gap in stream that lasts for maybe half a second. That's very annoying! Music is still playing during this gap but I can't hear it. I had similar problem with Xperia Z1 but I thought it was some problem in old Android and some bug in BT driver. Then I've had iPhone 5s and it worked like a charm! No gaps, no problems with BT. Now I've returned to Android and I'm starting to regret this :/
I've checked everything I could. I've turned on BT visibility, turned off Wi-Fi, checked if no notifications couse this. I've even flash clean stock firmware (originally phone came with branded firmware). Nothing. I've tested many players (Walkman, Power Amp, Player Pro, Double Twist etc). Nothing. I though that maybe problem is in my SD card (I store my music on external card), but: 1) it's very fast card 2) copying music to internal storage didn't change anything. Sound still has gaps. I don't now what to do I'm sure that my car audio is ok (iPhone works), today I've tested SGS5 with it and it worked well too. Problem is only with Xperia family (reminder: same problem on Xperia Z and Xperia Z3 Compact).
Any clues? I hate changing my phone again and I love battery life on Z3C (main reason I left iPhone).
Please help!

I have BT headphones and I am not experiencing those issues at all. Could it be that your phone goes into some kind of sleep mode and then wakes up again? Try with some app that keeps your phone constanly awake/screen on. Does the issue persist? Can you try out any other BT audio devices and report if the same problem exists?

Huh, I've turned off the 'Queue data in background' (I have polish locale and I don't know how this option is in english so I translated it literally) option in power management settings. Nothing has changed Also nothing has changed while I was driving car with Google Maps navigation (or Waze) turned on. Still gaps were present.
Unfortunately I don't have any other device that I could test my phone with Only other phones (and all phones works great).
I think I have to change Z3C to another phone, maybe SGS5 (but I don't like Samsung...)
Ehh, tough one

Hi there, I'm facing the EXACT same problem with a few minor differences in the setup:
I'm connected via cable to a philips CEM210. This so called "gap" usually happens when I skip a track(or when the next track comes on automatically).
I have recently purchased the kinivo btc455 and will let you know tomorrow if the issue persists on the BT device.
I actually think 2mal might be on to something here I use stamina mode regularly and I have rooted my device and change tracks via the volume keys.
So the issue might be the phone wakes up periodically (skip track? check notification queue?)

I have all power safe options turned off. Notification queue is empty. I have this problem only via BT. When listening with phone connected to radio by USB, everything is ok.

Try this app while you listen to music over BT : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.synetics.stay.alive
Still gaps?
Also I have Viper4android installed, dont think this would make a difference since it also worked before but its worth a try.
Get the apk from here and follow the instructions : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
I assume your device is rooted as it only works on such.
Speaking of weird bluetooth bugs, my music has been playing in fast-forward occasionally (cm12). I have no idea why this happens or how to fix it, so if anyone has any ideas I'd greatly appreciate it.

Stay Alive didn't help. There are still gaps once for a audio track.
My device isn't rooted so Viper is not an option :/
Thank you, though

Hmm , last idea , try turning the timeout for visibility option in the bluetooth menu (in the right corner on the bottom when bt is turned on) to no timeout.

That was the first thing I did. No effect, of course.
Sad but true - I have to get a new phone. And this time no Sony

Jeah too bad i could not help, what you could try is go to a store and ask them whether you could try out some BT headphones, with the pretext of buying them ofc . If the issue is still present then it may be hardware related and an exchange unit could work just fine. Otherwise it points to some incompatibility issue that could maybe fixed somehow but not by me and my current expertise . Especially since i am not experiencing the same. Wish you the best and good luck !
I use a Bluetooth headset (mw600). Started with a nokia n900 and it had frequent gaps, probably due to wifi/interference. With the Z3C started with no gaps but now get few most likely when it leaves any wifi connection (hotspots).
Since you have tried all options on the phone side, it seems to be an issue with the particular car stereo. How about you reset the stereo by removing all power sources to it then pair the phone as a fresh new device and check if issue continues?
I have a similar issue. It seems like a head unit problem for me. Many problems there are with Pioneerer Head Units. Please don't buy this brand...
Have same problem with my Z3 and pioneer car sound.... No issues when i used samsung devices... Now i have a Z3 and the sound fails all the time....
I have 2 headsets bluetooth and i dont have any trouble....
The problem is between sony devices and pioneer!!!
Help!!!
This is not just between Sony and Pioneer. I have a Cardo Scala G9 BT headset for motorcycles, and never had a problem with my Nokia 808 for music streaming, nor my Nokia X2 DS (strictly used for GPS, no SIM).
Now that I bought my Z3C, I have this random gaps of silence while streaming music. Extremely annoying. Even after rebooting the phone, no resolution. Thought maybe there are some bugs with 5.1.1, so I went ahead and updated the firmware on my G9 from 1.6 to 2.1. Still same issue.
Another issue I found with the Z3C: When music streaming is playing, and I get a text message or a new email, the music volume lowers, but no notification sound comes through, before the music volume resumes. On my other phones, when I get a text message, the music volume goes down, and I hear the audio for new text, email, or whatever.
It is extremely annoying. Anybody know how to resolve first and second problem I listed?
Not a Sony issue. Had this with an lg g3 on a kenwood car stereo and the same with the z3c. Seems to be an android issue, as it didn't happen with ios. I am not 100% sure, but I think it only started with lollipop, because I had an htc one m7 before the lg and I don't remember ever having this before...
Yeah, I am inclined to agree with you.
With my Acura, the music has zero gaps. But when I am on a hands free call, I get the gaps! So it must be something buggy with how Android handles one of the BT channels. It is extremely annoying. And on the hands free calls, when the gap happens, my telephony audio goes to the phone. And when I try to switch it to BT mode, nothing, until the gap ends. Then I can switch back to BT mode. This is extremely frustrating.
Bump. I've been having this problem for months. I had it in KitKat too and it happens with any Bluetooth device. It always happens in specific parts in my route (place I go to often), even though I may have never connected to WiFi there or WiFi is off. Could it have something to do with GPS activity?
Any solution for this strange problem?

Hello everyone!
I also have exact same problem with my Z3C and... Sony's MEX-N5100BT, there's a couple miliseconds gap while the music is playing. The best part is that while I'm talking through the radio's built-in BT Phone, the audio never has this gap... or I haven't heard that since I'm using this radio.
But you know what? This happens so rarely that I just ignored it and got used to it and I recommend you to do the same
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 just got a 128 GB OnePlus 3T a few days ago to replace a dead Nexus 6P. So far I'm very happy with the phone (performance, screen, etc, camera is almost as good, blah blah) except one thing.
My bluetooth is completely nuts. Sometimes I will turn it on via Settings or Quick Settings and it will not turn on at all (the slider moves to the right but stays greyed out, then moves back to the left). Other times I am "luckier" and it switches on and begins scanning, and I can see devices in the area. I pair to a speaker dock via NFC or my wireless headphones via tapping on them and the connection is established, you can hear the speakers go "hey something connected".
So that's all fine. But then you start playing music. About 40-60 seconds in it will skip, crackle, or pause the music entirely. Sometimes the device makes its disconnect noise immediately followed by its reconnect noise. At this point pressing 'play' again starts the cycle over again, usually, or sometimes it will just refuse to "talk to" anything any more until you reboot the phone.
The phone came with OOS 3.5.4 out of the box and immediately got an OTA to 4.1.1. I was suspect about the upgrade procedure and sighed and did a full reset and re-flashed the full 4.1.1 image using adb sideload, logged back in, did the barest of minimum updates to the Google apps to make it stop complaining, and then tried music again. More skipping and pausing. My headphones have a volume up/down key on them, pressing that pretty much immediately results in a disconnect.
It's like the AVRCP (command) bluetooth protocol is "fighting" the A2DP audio stream protocol? It doesn't make any sense. This would also explain why my car audio has NEVER worked, because my head unit uses AVRCP to read track names and my headphones and speaker dock don't have any sort of screen to speak of.
I want to love this phone and don't want to pay double for a similar Pixel, but I might just have to return it if it's effectively useless at one of the main things I have a phone for! :crying:
Hmmm...My Bluetooth connection never have that issues. I used Bluetooth headphones and my car head unit. Running oos 4.1.1 as well.
Try dirty flashing your ROM, there might be something wrong with the drivers. Bluetooth commands (volume, pause, voice assistant, skip, etc.) work find on my headset, I don't believe its a compatibility issue.
If that fails, it might be a hardware defect?
I don't have problems with Bluetooth im using sony wireless earphones everyday. Try reformat the phone
Hi!
Android Nougat has heavy issues regarding bluetooth connectivity. If you Google it you will see...
I have the very same Problems like you with my car radio...
This must be finally adressed by Google.

Huh? Must be an compatability issue between the BT device and your phone. I have 6 active BT devices I use all the time with this phone and my tablet. Car stereo, fitnessband, speakers and inear plugs.
Only issue I sometimes face is the 'stuck in connecting to last used device' where BT needs to be turned off and on again. Wouldn't call it a heavy issue.
bluetooth perfect here. better than my lg g3 that i had previous.
So, more info. If 2.4 GHz WiFi is active in ANY WAY, the bluetooth goes nuts. AVRCP (bidirectional commands) make it worse. Putting the phone in airplane mode to disable the "ambient" wifi location scanning and such, then turning bluetooth on manually and playing some downloaded music, seems to work fine. Switch the WiFi on though (even though my access point is 5 GHz), bam down the toilet. Ugh.
I did a complete reset and flashed OOS 4.1.1 from adb, no improvement. I'm trying the Open Beta 4 right now but I doubt it will be any better.
Did you turn off the scanning feature?
Happens to me like once every 3 days. I usually reboot by then

Hi, I have the exact same phone and been having stuttering performance with Bluetooth and Sony MDR-X330BT and worked fine with the 1+ 3. I decided to tell the phone to forget the headphones and start afresh; big mistake headphones kept refusing to pair. I noticed they have the NFC symbol on one of the earpads so I enabled NFC and used app I had downloaded a while back, 'Tap-and-Pair' that did not work either. I did a search today and found a great app that worked - 'NFC Easy Connect' from the Play Store. Now all I need is stable connection from car system which appeared to be tied in with length of screen life before going to sleep but think it may be faulty Twingo as been on the car forum and found others with similar issues but different smartphone to the 1+ 3T. Hope this helps.
Hello everybody,
First of all : Happy new year !
I own a Pixel 4 XL running a stock ROM with the bootloader still locked (I actually don't flash my phones anymore since I'm a team Pixel member haha). I use Android Auto very often because of my job.
Here is my problem : Since the december update (I guess) when I disconnect my phone from my car (using the cable & bluetooth), and put my phone in my pocket, the song from the last music suddenly runs very loud (max volume) even if I manually stop the music player beforehand. I tried a lot of things to stop this problem that seems very random : I cleared the YT Music cache, I disabled motion sense gestures, I even did a factory reset but the problem is still here.
I have to think every time I get out of my car to low the volume before this bug comes out..
Have you encountered that problem ? Do you guys have any idea that could help me ?
Thanks in advance !
Nobody can help me ?
I don't know, what does team Pixel say?
I don't think there is a solution and you aren't alone. I don't use YT for audio, but all music apps have the same pain in the ass behavior because they don't close automatically and most often you have to use "recents" to kill them off. This is the same with Spotify and Pandora. I find myself having to close AA itself sometimes because it stays open long after I've left the car. Sometimes 20 minutes later I look down and notice it is still running. If it can start up automatically when BT connects, or even when "hearing" driving noises like the engine, the reverse should be true. You turn the car off, unplug, exit the vehicle WHY does it continue running? Not one of the top 3 music apps will kill itself.
Thanks for answering !
I actually didn't know anyone else would have the same problem so this is reassuring me hah
Yes that is so annoying having your phone waking up with music with the volume toaximum whereas 10 minutes ago you thought you did everything to shut it up
I think I've had this happen literally once and I do use YouTube Music. Have never had it replicated. Is it still happening with the happened with the January update?

Unfortunately, yes it still happens despite the last update. The only thing that seems help me avoiding the problem is when I manually stop the music in my car before unplugging the phone. Then, for safety I put the media volume to the minimum so if the music starts again in my pocket, I won't hear it.

Interesting, so you're connected via Bluetooth to your car, turn off the ignition, and it'll still be playing? At that point, that's when my YouTube Music pauses.

Actually no. I plug my P4XL to my car through USB then it connects via Bluetooth and Android Auto runs on my car's screen. Everything work fine. When I'm arrived, I unplug my phone, turn of the ignition and the sound normally stops and YTM pauses. But something like 10 minutes later, when I'm far from the car, the last song I was playing in the car restart through the phone with absolutely no interaction on it.

I have a similar problem. I drive a lot throughout the day and Stream SiriusXM on my Phone through the BT on my work van. Very often, I get out and within an unspecified period of time, Sirius will start playing, full volume for no reason. It's as annoying as the Google Assistant suddenly responding to something I said without me using the OK Google prompt.
The fix is to close Sirius and swipe away the player controls in the status bar dropdown

Thanks for your feedback ! I don't have the Google Assistant problem you have but the exact same problem for the media. So it's not due to YT Music or Sirius. It's an overall media problem.
Unfortunately, I can't close the app because when I unplug the phone, YouTube Music isn't even open. And swiping right the player controls doesn't seem to work.
The only thing that seems to work is to stop the stream through Android Auto before turning off the engine and unplugging. But I have to think every time I leave my car

I haven't tried stopping it before I turn off the van, but that's an idea. I think when I turn off the engine, it pauses the stream on the device, sure, but what causes it to just start playing again??
TBH, that and the random dead spots around the edges of my phone since Android 11, I'm getting a little aggravated.

I absolutely don't know what causes it to start the music again. But closing it before turning off the engine and then force closing the streaming app does help. That way, the phone has nothing to turn back on
Regarding the dead spots since the update I don't have this problem... Yet. But yeah, Android 11 is one of the worst major update the past few years. Hope they will fix these problems soon.

Stock Z3 running Android 9
Issue #1 the power button is very unresponsive.
Issue #2 No option to wipe cache partition. Is there another way to do this because the option isn't in the recovery menu on this phone.
Issues #3 & 4 - This is weird. I was listening to YT Music using bluetooth yesterday and the music randomly stopped. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time but later realized that none of the media audio was working. I turned off BT, tried different apps, force closed all running apps, checked all audio settings, and still nothing. The front speaker still works because it will play ringtones. I rebooted, reset app permissions, cleared cache on all running apps. Moto Mod speakers will not play media audio either. Also, noticed that the phone will no longer fast charge either. This is the first time this has happened so I'm thinking it's somehow related. I tried multiple chargers and cables and it charged extremely slow, so slow that the battery percentage would not go up while plugged in with the screen on. I didn't get it wet or anything unusual. This morning, I reconnected my BT speaker and audio still plays but still no sound at all on the phone or Mods.
The audio issue is probably the most important for me to fix. I can live with the rest. Anyone have any suggestions or similar problems?

Issue #1 the power button is very unresponsive.
Issue #2 No option to wipe cache partition. Is there another way to do this because the option isn't in the recovery menu on this phone.
Issues #3 & 4 - This is weird. I was listening to YT Music using bluetooth yesterday and the music randomly stopped. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time but later realized that none of the media audio was working. I turned off BT, tried different apps, force closed all running apps, checked all audio settings, and still nothing. The front speaker still works because it will play ringtones. I rebooted, reset app permissions, cleared cache on all running apps. Moto Mod speakers will not play media audio either. Also, noticed that the phone will no longer fast charge either. This is the first time this has happened so I'm thinking it's somehow related.

Have you tried a factory reset on the device cause it could have a bad file somewhere in the firmware
