I currently start a Ringtone on Android and it plays fine. However when I try to stop the ringtone it doesn't stop or atleast doesn't stop straight away, it will keep in playing until it just plays out.

I've been trying to use SoundPool to play the default ringtone without success. In the code below
String ringtone = Settings.System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI.getPath();
SoundPool ringPhone = new SoundPool(2, AudioManager.STREAM_RING, 1);
int soundID = ringPhone.load(Settings.System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI.getPath(), 1);
int soundID = ringPhone.load(ringtone, 1);
ringPhone.play(soundID, 0.99f, 0.99f, 1, 0, 1);
I get the message "error loading content /system/ringtone sample 0 not READY". Replacing the URI with a hard path to an existing mp3 file on the sd card yields similar results.
How do I get the default ringtone to play? I've tried using SoundPool (preferred method) and MediaPlayer to play it but I'm getting nowhere. I've done so many dumb things, I'll just include the last fail. In the following snippet: String ringtone = Settings.System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI.getPath(); SoundPool ringPhone = new SoundPool(1, AudioManager.STREAM_RING, 0); int soundID = ringPhone.load Settings.System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI.getPath(), 1); ringPhone.play(soundID, 0.99f, 0.99f, 1, 0, 1.0f);
loads but plays nothing. When I display Settings.System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI.getPath(), it's returning /system/ ringtone
Once in a great while, I don't get the custom assigned ringtone playing when someone calls me. Anyone else?

In every case, this was not the set ringtone, nor even in the ringtone list! These are songs from my SD card! - What the heck! Any idea how this could have happened? If it was all my SMS or email or calls, I would say its an app, but its been Everything!
In my game because it is a board game, I do not want the screen to timeout which the user is playing my game. Any idea on how to do this?

But how do I stop the file from playing if the user uses the back button to leave the activity without clicking on the "Stop" button?
I am a newbie android phone user (formerly a BB user) and new to this site so forgive me if this has been asked before. I have the Samsung epic and downloaded music to listen to with my headphones. While listening to music, I tested calling my phone and the music changed and began playing my music ringtone. I also noticed that my "ringtone" was playing outloud also. Here is my question.... is there a better setting I can set so that my phone doesn't play my ringtone out loud when I am listening with my headphones. With how it is currently set, I can see it disturbing other people around my while in a coffee shop, the gym, etc. Thanks for any help!

This issue can be resolved by doing a reboot but then will just occur again.
I have a Droid Razr MAXX and it is rooted running liquid smooth.
Got a nexus one and on it is Android 2.1 I believe?I plug my car's headphone style cable into the phone all the time to listen to internet radio and even the internal mp3's on it every once in a while.The problem is the phone's music player starts all the time on its own and plays random music OVER whatever internet radio app I may be using.Its so annoying and I can't figure out how to make it stop.Out of no where listening to iHeartRadio, or DroidLive, the Mp3 native music players starts and plays.I've read people saying use the drop down (notification) to go into the app, and hit pause, then the phone's back button to get out and that that particular order will stop it.Even if its instructions on how to delete the native music app and a suggestion for another 3rd party music app anything just HAVE to get rid of this auto play thing.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI hope nobody's already answered this somewhere -- I've been searching for a few days now with no luck. I'm wanting to disable the audio in received mms messages. I absolutely loath those messages that scream, blare music, say offensive stuff, etc. With my old Lotus, you actually had to choose to play the attached audio, but I can't find anything anywhere to set this on my new Evo. If anyone knows how to either make the audio in messages manual instead of automatic, or just disable their audio completely, I'd be eternally grateful to learn this!
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a HTC Incredible and when I start to play music, my downloaded voicemails start looping and playing over the music. I can hit pause, but then they'll automatically start playing. When hitting menu, there is no option to delete. Only options are "shuffle on, search, exit, get art, concerts and more" Exit doesn't work. As soon as I start listening to music, the voicemails turn right back on. I have turned the phone completely off and on again, and still the voicemails just keep on playing over the music.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn Android, I'm having a problem trying to figure out which ringtone is actually playing (I'm not trying to detect the default ringtone, but the one actually playing as it may be different due to user setting a particular ringtone for a particular contact).I'm using the Ringtone.isPlaying() function as I cycle through (successfully) all the available Ringtones from the RingtoneManager. However none of them ever returns true to Ringtone.isPlaying()! Anyone have a clue what I am doing wrong? Here is the code sample that is definitely being run whilst the ring is playing

View 6 Replies View RelatedI love my Evo, however the music app will play EVERY song it finds, including my ringtones and YouMail messages. Can I make it just play the songs in my songs folder (and sub-folders) on my SD Card? I only want it to search my songs folder, not the whole phone or the whole SD Card.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhenever I receive a text message while on an active call, it plays the message tone at full volume - making it rather hard to hear the other person! Granted, this only happens occasionally ... but when it does it can be quite annoying. I've searched other threads and had a (what I consider to be ) a thorough look through the phones' settings, but I can't seem to find a way to stop it. Is this just an omission on the developers behalf? Or is there something I could change?

I like this player but I have a question about its use. How do you stop a movie that is playing?

View 16 Replies View RelatedJust wondering if there is anyway to set my phone in such a way that my ring tone will turn off when I open the phone (either unlock/ do anything to the phone). As it is right now my ring tone (a full mp3 song imported from my pc) will play until I drag down my notification bar. I'm using tone picker and handcent sms if it makes any difference.
Also, is there a way to edit the the keyboard input sound when typing with the stock keyboard?
I'd like to set a new default ringtone without using the ringtone picker. In other words, there is a certain ringtone that is already installed on my system, and I want to programmatically set it to be my default ringtone without any human interaction. The reason I want this is because every time I reboot my N-1, my previous default ringtone setting gets forgotten, and I am given another ringtone that I don't like. I want to set up an app that I can run manually (or better yet, to cause to automatically run upon startup) which will reset my default ringtone to the one that I like without my having to manually do this via the Settings.
The only examples I have found so far for doing this involve using the ringtone picker, but as far as I can tell, this requires human interaction, which I want to avoid.
I purchased my moment about 2 weeks ago and have been having fun figuring it out however there are some areas where I am having problems.
1. When you want to attach a document it selects the picture folder/area, how do you browse instead of being forced into that area.
2. I downloaded ringtone app and have found the app quite useful, the problem I am having is, the ringtones I have created don't show up in all the ringtone areas of my phone, what needs to be done to correct this.
3. The basic user guide that comes with the phone says there is an app I can download called samsung new pc studio. When I call sprint or samsung they say this app is not available or can't be used by a casd(the u.s. standard, I think casd is right), they say this software is only for the other standard, I did find this app on the web. Is what sprint and samsung saying true if not can I use the ones I found on the web.
4. If you could choose only ten apps to have(free)which ones would you choose?
I used the htc ringtone trimmed for one of the song in my music library on my phone and I'm sorry if there is already a thread for this but how are you able to delete these ringtones when you no longer want them? The program its self works fine for making ringtones but I cannot find anyway to delete them. I even looked in Astro. If someone doesnt mind could they please lend some advice on this. I've searched in the forums and I havnt found a solution to it.
