[Q] Squealing during music playback - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Got my S4 yesterday, and I'm having a major problem with playback while in my car.
In between songs or even in quiet parts of songs, there is an audible squealing noise during playback. This happens on the Google Music app, and the built-in music player (songs stored on SD card). This only happens in the car, not with the included Samsung earbuds. It also happens if I have it plugged in to charge, or not.
I've done some research on this forum, and come to the conclusion that perhaps attaching a ferrite core to the 3.5mm wire would help?
Thanks for any help!

Audio Disturbance, please help

Whenever I listen to music through wired headphones, there is always some sort of disturbance sound in the background while playing. I have tried multiple types of headphones, I have tried multiple types of adapters for 3.5mm headphones.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem while listening to music through a wired headset? The sound is subtle, but it drives me crazy!
I think that it is a problem with the driver- is there a different audio driver for the Rhodium?
I highly doubt that it is just me experiencing this because I have heard the same annoying sounds on my friend's computer speakers, and sometimes on my computer speakers too. (and yes, other people can hear the sounds too )
I really hope someone can help me out here, thanks
Are you using the HTC music player, Media Player, or a 3rd party app?
Is the sound present on various songs?
I haven't noticed any type of background noise on my Tilt2, and I listen to music on it quite a lot. But I don't have headphones right now to check (if its something I just haven't noticed before).
Can you describe the sounds more? High pitched or low? Constant tone, or comes and goes, or repeats?
I have a TMOUSA TP2. It is persistent in any audio that comes out via a wired headset. It doesn't matter which music player I use. I have tried Windows Media, Nitrogen, TF3D Music Tab, and CorePlayer.

[Q] Cyanogenmod mediaplayers pause on their own

Hello,
Ever since switching to Cyanogenmod, when listening to music using the stock player, Pandora, or Winamp, the music will randomly pause. The players seem to act as if they received a pause signal (eg: headphones unplugged), This issue occurs with headphones plugged in, external speakers, or using the phone's built in speaker. I'm not sure what is causing this but is there a fix? I'm hoping that there is just some setting I messed up.
Thanks!

[Q] Bad music sound quality on Desire via headset

Hi all,
I really enjoy listening to music a lot, and wanted to use my Desire as a MP3 player, so I don't have to drag my iPod around as well.
Now - I get _really_ disappointed with the quality of sound that comes out of that phone.
Be it net radio, last.fm or flac music on the SD card, I hear a lot of interference from the WLAN and 2g/3g network on the headphones (you know. bssssss / dak-a-dak-a-dak, brrrrr, depending on which connection I am on). Not very loud, but very disturbing if you are listening to low-volume music.
Do you suffer from the same problem? Did anyone find a solution to this?
(I found a few similar posts, but none really matching as they cover speaker/BT headsets)
I use my Desire to play mp3 and to listen FM and streaming radio and I've never heart any interference.
Maybe it's another device what is causing the noise?
I also use my phone to listen to music / podcast and never noticed any interferences.
Did you check your headset cable (I've noticed it's the biggest unwanted noise generator when listening to music on the go) ?
Well - partly it is indeed my headset cable.
Although I am using Sennheiser cx150, which sound quality is really good in my opinion, it seems that the cable is very poorly shielded.
So I tried with various other earphones, and the interference is less. Still not gone, which still annoys me, but less.
Oh well, i gonna spend another bunch of money for new headphones until I get a new phone :-(
Thanks, all.

[QUESTION] Google Play Music switches audio from headphones to speaker when unlocked

While playing music on my un-rooted Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII, every time I unlock my phone the music switches from the headphones I have plugged in to the phone's speaker. When I un-plug and re-plug he headphones or pause and play the music, it switches back into the headphones. This issue is very debilitating as I am often listening to music in quiet places and it's embarrassing when my music starts blaring. Thanks for your help.

I have the opposite problem. When I listen to music on my headphones the music switches to the speakers when the phone locks. I guess you never figured this out. I know my problem is due to the lockscreen app "Widget Locker". When I deactivate it the problem goes away. Guess I'll head over to the widget locker thread and poke around. I'm on an S3 as well.
Edit:
I found a cool workaround by using the Tasker app. I made a profile which disables Widget Locker when i plug my headphones in and enables it when i unplug them. Seems to work pretty flawlessly.
Do you have gapless playback??

No audio in google music for only "one" song.

Hi! Loving my new phone with everyday that passes by. But, I'm having a really weird issue.
I have a music track (Hotel California) in flac (16bit) format on my phone. Although it does play on google music, there is no sound output in either the speaker or the headphone jack. But when I use my bluetooth headphones, it plays flawlessly. Interestingly this is happening to only that one particular track.
I have 90% of my music on the phone in flac and even the 5.1 channel flac files play perfectly. Apart from this one song! (this happens with only google music)
But when I use Neutron Music player, the song plays. But again not with google music. AAAHHH! It's frustrating!!!
P.S. It is happening with some other tracks too. Perhaps hardware decoding?
