Pandora wierd sound problems

katoom400 · January 28th, 2010, 08:56 AM

I have some strange problem when using pandora connected to my car stereo via aux in.

If I start it up, it plays perfectly. If a call comes in, it pauses and takes the call...then resumes just fine after the call.

but if I manually pause the music and switch to another app. when I return to pandora and un-pause the music, it plays but sounds "garbled" like it is under water! I have to reboot the droid at this point to get it back to normal.

Anyone else have this strange problem? this is my second droid with the same problem.

I don't have that problem.

I use Pandora in my car, work, home, and at night (going to sleep) every day. I obviously have apps pause Pandora as well as manually pause it without any issues what-so-ever.

The question then becomes, what app have you had on both of your DROIDs that is causing the issue? And chances are, those of us not having this issue are not using the same app(s) that you are.

any one noticed that Pandora makes some "clicks" when playing. i don't notice it too much with low volume and headphones, but in my car, i notice them pretty bad. At the speeds that i get around my house, it can probably download the song in 5 seconds, so i don't think it would be a streaming issue.....

I don't expect pandora to be cd quality, but the pops are getting on my nerves. the PC verios that i have used extensively doesn't click like this....

my problem ended up being an app called HFDIALER. when I would pause the music, use this app to dial and then return to any music app the sound was messed up. Since I stopped using it I have not had the issue.
