Audio Skips on S3

BEmusic — Wed, 17 Jul 2013 16:44:17 GMT

Recently I've had many issues with song audio "Skipping" ( much like a scratched CD would sound).

I have full 4G service and Spotify is the only app running on my phone so there should be no issues from a Hardware or Network angle. Also, other streaming services stream music smoothly.

The issue is becoming so bad that I'm thinking about canceling my Premium, which would be a sad day for me, is this happening to others?

Have you tried changing the quality and audio effects settings? Is this with streamed or downloaded music? Are you listening over bluetooth?

>Audio Quality is as low as it can be ( "Normal")

>Audio effects > Equalizer is Off

> Issue is only with streamed music ( downloaded music works fine)

>Not listening via Bluetooth

Any thoughts/tips are welcome. Thanks.

Try moving streaming quality up to high, then extreme.

Interesting idea.....same result, still skipping..... music sounded better though 🙂

High bitrate skips always sound better 🙂 Seriously though, you're not running a third party equaliser or app which might be interfering are you?

I just viewed the running services to verify, I ended up uninstalling an App that came with to my old headphones and restarted for good measure.....Issue still remains.
