Hi all -
I bought a HTC Touch Pro 3-in-1 Synch & Charge Stereo Audio 3.5mm adapter w/ microphone, hoping I can be able to use it while listening to MP3 music while charging my phone and capable of picking up calls in my car.
This is the item I bought: http://www.pdaextreme.com/2750.html
I noticed that everytime I use it, I would be able to listen to music for a short while then all of a sudden the Voice Speed Dial would go off or it would make calls repeatedly then I would unplug it and it would stop.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what I can do to prevent it from going off? It's really strange, I suspect that there some kind of shortcircuit in the adapter. Need help.
Thanks in advance,
elfnet
I know what you mean, i have a similar setup and specially when im listening to internet radio on skyfire or music on S2P it goes crazy and i have to unplug, for the voice dialer i disable it, just go on the options. but for the redial of the last number i have no clue on how to stop it. I hope someone here has a good solution to our problem!
Hi guys, long time since i post here (since the HTC Diamond)
Anyway, my question goes to those who use the default music player.
I have been experiencing some weird problems.
Sometimes when i start playing music it will start skipping the track ahead by itself and jumping to the next track.
I couldnt identify the problem.
Other day i installed "3" player to see if it would do the same, and it did.
Worse than that, if i fired up the default player, even tho the 3 player was off it would start itself and play musics too at the same time.
My Desire is standard, no modifications.
Anyone here had any problem like this ?
I have had no such problems with the HTC music player, i use it all the time with the AUX port in my car,
are you sure you are not touching the screen by mistake? because i noticed when you lock the device, you can still change tracks without unlocking, double edged thingy, its useful when ur in a car, but not so much if its in ur pocket
I would suggest you to remove your memory card, format it with cardreader (NOT FAST) and then put it back to Desire and again format it from your phone and try again.
NOTE: YOU'LL LOSE EVERYTING ON YOUR MEMORY CARD.
I have 16GB which I use with my Desire and I have not seen the problem you talk about here. And yes, I listed to lot of music.
Ok, thanks for the feedback guys.
But here is what i found out so far.
Tested lots of options with Wifi/GPS/Data on/off and it doesnt seem to be coming from there.
Now the tricky part is with the headphone.
Sometimes when i insert the headphone Sennheiser CX line the phone shows the HEADSET icon on the tray and it is when the glitch with the music playback starts.
Sometimes i insert the headphone and it detects correctly but after a few mins the headphone icon turns into a headset icon and the problem with the musics skipping restart.
I checked the 3.5mm jack and it is not loose, and i insert it well each time.
I have tried to kill all open apps before doing the test run and the same result appears randomly.
I could not trim down the problem yet but i will let you know.
PS.
I will try the format thing after a few more tests.
Thanks again..

As you see its a headphone and it is recognized as headset....odd.
Caught the issue on video.

Maybe a 3.5mm jack problem ?
Need more testing...
I cannot reproduce the problem every time....arghhh
I have exactly the same problem albeit with Google listen and the stock music player. Its definitely the 3.5mm socket. I can reproduce the problem each time with the male to male lead I have for the car. I'd really value a solution!!
Please, can someone else confirm if you have problem with the 3.5mm jack ?
Hey just tested with stock earphones (should give same results to everyone by not using my "own" so to speak)
No problem what so ever over here.
BTW, I've used my own in-ear earlier and never noticed anything of what you are describing back then as well.
Maybe you should start a poll?
I use a Bluetooth headset at work because I do not want to damage the phone in my pocket so the phone is on my tool box and "3" Cubed music app will start up when default music player is playing?
thanks for the feedback guys, i hope to hear from more ppl because if this is specific to a few devices i might return mine and request a new one.
I have the same problem with "3" starting automatically too.
But i thought it was related to the 3.5mm jack.
Hey, I have the same problem, my girlfriend with the same phone, also has this problem. I have tried a few other music apps, and they all seem to have issues, including the fact the HTC music player starts playing music by itself on top of it.
I will try and format the sd card twice and report back
Okay, when I use the HTC Headset, I cant skip/change tracks with the headset buttons, also no Pause/Play ... pressing Play results in skipping to the next track ... today it even called suddenly one of my contacts :\
When I use normal earphones I've got absolutely NO problems
I believe the problem doesnt come from the musci application but from the headphone/headset connected to the 3.5mm jack.
For me, if any headphone is inserted and it is recognized as headset, the music applications will go bananas.
I will wait a few more replies and a few days before go to the stor and complain about the issue.
Its definitely something to do with the 3.5mm jack, as i've been playing music for a while on the loudspeaker as a test and it works perfectly...
Is there really noone else having issues with this?
I've had similar results occasionally, all when the headset jack gets jostled. I'm pretty sure it just has bad contacts sometimes. Sucks, but I don't consider it phone-return-worthy.
I have had exactly the same issue as you recorded and described.. after that I pulled out the headset and tried to put it back in, but the phone didn't even recognized the headset at all! I had to turn the phone off and on to get the headset recognized again.. But the issue with the music player going berserk was exactly the same with jumping from number to number, so you're not alone..

No problem with the 3.5mm jack here, but I've seen users at other forums complaining of this.
Problems with third party players seem widespread. A few times I've had Tunewiki start playing when pressing play on the stock player.
BINGO !!!
So, here is the link to this other thread.

I think this is the problem.
I have no idea what TRS is, but i am almost sure this is what is causing the issues with 3rd party headphones.
Can someone else check there and confirm that this could be the cause for the weird issue when the player go bananas and it identifies the headphone as a headset ?
I occasionally have these issues on the included stock HTC headset. It's true that TRS headphones may have inconsistent effectiveness in a TRRS jack, but it's not necessarily the sole cause of issues, at least.
Hello,
I have a Windows Phone 7 Tango (Pdaimatejam) 7.8, and I experienced this problem with Mango too (Way too many times).
The problem is, when I have music playing in my pocket (or just through an AUX cable in the car), the music just stops, resumes, stops, resumes, and then stops playing all together. This is so annoying, especially while driving. And sometimes, randomly, "Microsoft Listen" or something comes up, the voice recognition.
Can anyone help me? This is one of the most annoying bugs I've encountered, and it's impossible to use it on a regular basis that way.
Also mentioning, that this problem starts after awhile of listening to music.
i had a problem similiar to this where the volume would goto full blast but it was from the 3.5 jack and i changed aux cables to one that fit better and it stopped

Yeah, but I can't just change my headphones jack or my inbuilt aux cable (It's sort of a stupid hack by Mazda representative)

Make sure you don't sit on the headphone cable... Lol...
Microsoft Tellme? There is only 2 ways to get it : Press and hold the Windows Button / Press and hold the Call button on the handfree headset.

I'm not sitting on the cable, and it came up randomly, while listening to music. Didn't have a call button.

Hard Reset the phone is more like it now... do it, and see if it fix your problem. If not, it is time to call the operator, give them a dispatch and have a new device, lol
It looks like your headset needs replacement. Mine does that to me on my Titan. When the cable is under my coat, it accidentally stops as it's pressed a little by mistake.
Also, the way the jack makes the contact with your phone could be another cause. I had/have but don't use HTC Sensation XL, and it did the same with the beats audio that comes with it. The jack doesn't fit properly. Hence a little angled movement and songs break. Play, pause.
With Windows Phone it's more likely to stop even if your jack is a lil out of the socket since as soon as the headphone is removed, the music stops by default.
Hello Folks
I need your help
I used to have (HTC ONE S )and when i am in the car i connect my cellphone to AUX jack and i could hear incoming calls from car audio system at the same time i was able to talk with phone's built in speaker which was pretty good.
I started using (Samsung Galaxy note 2) and i tried the same thing but unfortunately i hear the incoming voices from cars speakers but they cant hear me , it is like when i plug the 3.5 jack to car it disables built in microphone. i need to know if there is a option in setting or something that can help me with this issue .
thanks for attention
Plug the 3 pole male to male aux cable from Z1c headphone jack to car stereo.... now you have everything thru the car audio... music which automatically interrupts for phone calls (the mic is of course a bit distant and callers report you sounding like you're in a tunnel but it works) .... and of course the ability to tap the google microphone icon and speak requests to make calls or play certain tracks and of course search the net..... all working flawlessly while using Android 4xx versions
Now you change to Android 5 in a custom ROM.... CM12.... now the same scenario runs perfectly but only if you've rebooted the phone and haven't used the google voice search since reboot so it's not been started as a service and running in the background.
If you have already opened voice search you find that everytime you plug in the aux cable the google voice search randomly triggers and even tho you can cancel it... up it comes again maybe 3-4 times until it stays off...... but then it'll fire up again randomly as you're driving along.... and so on... and so on.... until you get really sick of it cos it's not behaving as it should and it's bloody annoying..... :crying:
The puzzle is how do you stop the voice search from running as a background service once you've used it after a fresh boot so you don't get this annoying glitch....???
A twist to the puzzle is that using the headphones that came in the box with the Z1c doesn't cause the issue, but that possibly has something to do with the 4 pole jack (as opposed to the 3 pole on aux cable) having a separate mic channel for input from the hands free mic positioned on the headphone cable.
If anyone clever enough to know how to reprogram the google voice app to not remain running as a background process after it's first opening post boot, then please chime in.... I'd love to here from you.
Tasker maybe? App ops app? Just some suggestions...
