Ok So i Have the lg g stylo. Ok its a great phone, not much lag, big size, good storage right? The only problem i have are the Equalizer problem! I have several different apps testing it out, but right now Poweramp works the best. The problem is, that the Equalizer SHUTS OFF, when i lock the screen or leave the app. The music still plays, but the equalizer shuts off. I go in the app, turn off and on the equalizer, go to app info, force stop it, restart the phone, and nothing works. sometimes whenever i clear the app cache, the equalizer works for a bit, then shuts off. Ive used Equalizer+, Shuttle, BlackPlayer, and Equalizer, and nothing works. Poweramp works only, and stays on. i DONT want to Hard Reset my phone and i really dont want to use Poweramp forever. One thing to note, The LG G Stylo does not have the MusicFX app or the SoundAlive app, no FX for music app, so what to do!? Ive noticed this problem on Built-In Speaker, Headphones, And Rarely on Bluetooth speakers. Also, i dont have any external apps that force stop apps to clear memory, like Clean Master. Thanks in advance!

 

No Root, Im not going to root either, and i have OS 5.1.1 with the Virgin Mobile Carrier

 

No No, I meant for Hard Reset, as of like FACTORY RESET. Im not going to do it. I get them confused

 

Ive already used Shuttle: Shut Off, BlackPlayer: Shut off, Equalizer+: Shut Off, Equalizer:Shut Off. The only thing that works is Poweramp, but i dont want to pay for the pro. This isnt going to be fixed, if it is it will be a miracle. The clearing the Cache thing doesnt work at all now, so i dont know whats the problem

 

Yea ima try them all out. NEW NOTE: THE EQUALIZER NOW WORKS SOMETIMES WHEN ONE SONG FINISHED, AND NEXT ONE PLAYS. THATS ONLY FOR SHUTTLE THOUGH. BLACKPLAYER AND EQUALIZER+ STILL DONT WORK, BUT SOMETIMES WITH EQ+, I HEAR THE EQUALIZER FOR A SPLIT SECOND, THEN IT STOPS. POWERAMP IS GUARENTEED TO WORK, BUT I DONT WANT TO USE POWERAMP. I DO NOT HAVE A MusicFX APP OR SoundAlive APP ON THE PHONE. ISEARCHED AND SEARCHED NOTHING IS THERE. I SWITCHED THE "Use AwesomePlayer Instead of NuPlayer" IN DEVELOPER OPTIONS TO USE AwesomePlayer NOT SURE WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IS
