[Q] Flask 10.1 Streaming Issues

Ahhhhhh! So we finally have it! Froyo! Problem though - Flash seems to have an embedded flaw. When I attempt to stream simple flash radio stations from the browser I get what sounds like an Ozzy Osbourne record being played backwards. The audio playback is in SLOOOOWWW motion. I wish I could just hit up Tune-In or IHeartRadio but they won't pick up my local favorite - KSMT the mountain. It appears that his issue is nothing new with many Droiders - but I have yet to find a sound solution. Anyone have a thought or perhaps a solution? Gracious in advance.

flask??...well iv also had a few hiccups using F.L.A.S.H. on my celly but that is to be expected seeing how it is still pretty new to mobile devices my friend

[Q] Weird Sounds on Gtalk/Fring Video Chat

Hi all... Purchased my Iconia about a week ago and am generally pleased with it. I have been having an issue, and after scouring the interwebs I haven't been able to find a solution.
My sister also has the Iconia, and yesterday we attempted to initiate video chat sessions with both Gtalk and Fring. Video works fine on both programs and on both tablets, but on her Iconia, strange audio distortions are coming through. Sometimes we can hear what sounds like music, which would lead me to believe that it may be some kind of interference.
We've tried chatting when I'm at home and she's at her place and both on her network. Also we have both tried starting the sessions . Always the sounds are on her tablet. We haven't tried it yet where we are on a completely different network(s).
What can we do to troubleshoot the problem? We both purchased from BB and still have some time to exchange if it is a hardware issue, but I would like to make sure that it isn't some kind of interference or software issue first.
BTW we both live in Philadelphia... I live blocks away from a TV station which furthers my suspicion that it may be interference. Thanks for the help

It's not interference, it's the Iconia
Tried video calls between our Tab and my PC, and between the Tab and my phone. Sound is just screwed up for VOIP and video calls. Acer needs to fix it in a software update.

Thanks MaddMatt. I'm going to stick it out with the Iconia... I think that most of the bugs will get fixed in upcoming updates. But I think my sister is going to exchange for the Flyer.

So then I guess it would be my tablet with the issue, since hers is the one that is picking up the sound from my microphone?

[Q] No Artist / Track info using Bluetooth when streaming to Car Audio

Hi all,
After many reviews and considerations, I upgraded from my Iphone 4 and decided to got with the S4.
Everything's been working great, except the fact that I previously used to stream all my music from my Iphone 4 (using Spotify) to my Car Audio (Volkswagen RCD510) including track info etc and it worked great. Imagine my suprise when I hooked up the S4 and realize that it's not showing the track info?! First I thought I'd done something wrong (happened once before on the Iphone too), so I looked and looked through all the settings, but everything was ok. It just kept showing the random "BT-Audio" message all the time.
When I started reading online, I come to 2 different conlusions:
1. I've seen on the Spotify forums that people are demanding the very same thing and it's on their "wishlist" for future upgrades. I can't doublecheck this as no app is transferring the info currently. On the Iphone, Youtube, Itunes, Spotify, all tranferred the track info.
2. From what I've been reading, the phone needs to support AVCRP v1.3 to fully transfer all the info, including track / artist etc. Correct? Does the S4 support v1.3 by default or does this need to be altered with a custom ROM like on some other devices?
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks.
All the best,
Marthax

Try the original music player from samsung. I got the information transmited to a bluetooth receiver ( sonyericsson mw600). Android supported from the age of gingerbread.

That made the track info appear, but the time is missing. Are you getting the time displayed?

Found this thread which solved my problem :victory:!
Metadata is now working. The only thing left is the time elapsed / remaining, but I can live with that until Spotify releases their own official fix.

[Q] Music equalizers

Hello everyone,
I just recently made the jump from a S2 to the S4 and I must say this phone surpasses all my expectations so far. The only thing that I find I need to get working better is the audio for music. Playing music in the google music app seems kinda flat. My old phone phone was rooted and I had beats audio on it, but with my new phone I don't really need to root it till we get LTE in my area for wifi tethering. That's really all i need to root for. Can anyone recommend a way to increase my audio experience? I have tried a couple of equalizers off the play store but they only seem to work for a short time before they stop and I have to reboot or reload the app.
Thanks for any advice or help anyone can give.
Brian
EDIT: I mainly use a LG BT headset with my phone so that would need to be supported ( which has been part of my issue ) .

Any one help out ?

[Q] bluetooth streaming problem on stock 4.2.2

Hi there ,
I have a stock rom 4.2.2 , I have a streaming problem with A2DP when trying to use my new portable speaker.
saw that there is a known bug which google declared has a fix since Jan. 2013 , so I guess the fix should already be in my android version.
I'm sure I'm not the only one having this problem , is there a fix without rooting etc.?
pretty funny that my old S3 can stream audio to the same speaker perfectly and the mighty S4 is lagging and cutting the music.
This is one major bug
please try and help.
Thanks

I'm having this problem as well. Anyone find a solution without rooting? I wasn't going to root this one, but now I'm thinking about it. First time owning a Samsung, so a little nervous in doing so.

I'm having a Bluetooth problem as well and looking around for a solution. I'm convinced the beats audio I downloaded to my phone is what made my Bluetooth stop working. It will work for calls but not for media payback. It will still control play or skipping but the sound only comes from the phone speaker. Anyone know how I can fix my Bluetooth capability? I tried factory reset and no change.
