[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHANGiism:
I have this same problem. I don't see rfs reported anywhere and I see ext4 so I am guessing voodoo is enabled. But I don't see the correct status on cwr. So when you create the disable-lagfix file, there is no extension on that file? It's just blank file with no extension?????
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zerg The Bear:
Yes, if you see EXT4, then voodoo is enabled. From everything I've read, both green and red CWR don't correctly show the state of voodoo lagfix. You have to use other methods to determine if voodoo is enabled or not (which you just did).
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHANGiism:

Hi Suddenly my phone can not play mp3 files. I'm using player pro, and default player 'music player' both of them. If I try to play it the "Sorry the player does not spport this type of audio file" message keep coming out. Even it can not play video, and it says it has problem with playing video. Even the ringtone I made from an mp3 file can not be played right now. So when it get calls it gives silence.

I've heard that there's some apps for playing media files, I might miss that now. can anybody tell me where i can get those apps?

Do you have any idea about this? I rooted the phone, but didn't change the rom. it has still 2.1.:confused:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nalakrub:
I'm having the same issue after the Froyo update. The only solution I've found is to reboot which, to me, is bull****.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WinoOutWest:
I have two Captivates running Phoenix Ultimate and they have both exhibited this. rebooting does fix it but I don't really consider that a fix.

Pro Player is the prefered player but I noticed it does this with the stock player as well.

Did anyone find a permanent fix for this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woundhealer:
My Captivate was working fine but started doing this randomly after I upgraded to 2.2. I will not be able to play any media, won't connect to youtube either. Of course the reboot works, but I miss calls because it randomly stops playing my custom ringtone.:mad:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashyford:
I am on 2.3.3 (Mosaic III, a jvh build) using X-cal's 1.2 no voodoo reorient jvh kernel. Previously, I used Phoenix and mostly speedmod kernels. Since upgrading to Froyo, I cannot play 95% of my music.

Currently, the included Mosaic music players (both stock 1.1.1 and miui v. 1) only play about 5% of my non-drm mp3s which are stored on my external sd card. (The error says "sorry, the player does not support this audio file" or something like that; but they are all mp3s with Id3v2.2 tags. I painstakingly checked. 95% are rendered unknown artist and are unplayable by the music players.) I have deleted and reloaded the music to no avail. Again, I had the same problem under Froyo (Phoenix Roms) but no problems under Eclair. I don't think this is a Rom based issue but I'm not prepared to rule it out.

I have tried at least four other music apps and they all have the same problem.

I will try to remove both included music apps (which are regarded as system apps) and reinstall.

Question: is there an explanation as to what is causing this? Whether or not there is an explanation, has anyone found a resolution?

This has been a frustrating several months and I thought, foolishly, that Gingerbread would solve the issue.

Any relevant insight on this (ruled out culprits, etc.)?

I was having the same issue and I also couldn't play any flash videos. Once I unistalled Flash Player and reinstalled it, no more issues playing MP3s or flash videos.

This might sound VERY WEIRD, but trust me, remove the official Twitter app. I was facing this issue as well and when I Googled around, I found that other people were running into this as well and was in-fact caused by the Twitter app.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashyford:
Cappy Still Won't Play MP3s.

I found that answer too but, fortunately or unfortunately, I don't have the twitter app and never have had the twitter app.

Is it possible to bump this problem/error to the Team Phoenix Devs?

Just to restate the problem: My phone refuses to play mp3's. Since Phoenix Rising Froyo Roms (using Speedmod kernels) to Mosaic III (using X-cal's 1.2 no voodoo reorient jvh kernel) I cannot play my non-drm mp3 music collection stored on my external sd card. The error says "sorry, the player does not support this audio file" or something like that. I've only used Team Phoenix Roms. I've searched far and wide on the Internet, I've reformatted my SD card, installed different music apps, uninstalled and reinstalled music apps, changed the mp3 ID3 tags on iTunes, tried an mp3tagger on the phone, reinstalled Adobe Flash 10.3, cleared music app caches, rebooted, deleted and reloaded the music all to no avail.

Is there something i have not tried? Can Team Phoenix help solve this dilemma?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashyford:

This seems to happen to my youtube app also. Just stops playing videos and phone needs a restart... So I can't listen to music or watch youtube videos.. happening at least once a day now.. :mad:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashyford:
For Music:

Try switching your id3 tags to v2.3. I had v2.4, switched to v2.1 when this problem occurred only to discover that only old Android releases had problems with v2.3. (I'm led to believe Android still has problems with v2.4.) I now hear v2.3 should be read.

Based on this message from Apr 11, 2010, on the official Android open issues debugger list, several users reported improved functionality after employing the following: After switching tags, Go to Menu, Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, Options Filter All, Media Storage, Clear Data, Power off the phone, power on the phone.

Youtube: I'm sure you have done this but have you tried different versions of Adobe Flash (latest version 10.3, available in Market) and uninstalling twitter (if you have twitter installed)? Did you clear youtube's memory cache, uninstall, reboot, and reinstall?

Hope something here works for someone. I haven't be able to try the music suggestions yet.

Captivate - Mosaic III
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashyford:
Progress!

Update:

So I decided to go back to a music syncing program to see if that would solve the problem of making the music playable. In particular, I went back to Doubletwist (which was buggy as hell and why I dumped it). So I deleted all of the songs from Android, deleted the media storage cache, deleted the old library file restored in Double Twist, and synched as outlined above.

Result: Roughly 60 - 70% of the music works! The syncing took nearly 12 hours to load 20GBs of music. When I would simply "transfer" it by selecting and dragging, it would take 3 hrs. Unfortunately there are still 139 unknown artists -- even if songs are from artists with other (if not the same) readable album.

Why do some of the songs play and others do not? Not sure just yet. Will investigate further.

Note: If after syncing Doubletwist, and your playlists don't show up, according to this XDA post I hear a reboot may work.

Again, hope this helps someone.

I built these for my Atrix but they should work on all variants. Each tarball has the exact directory structure needed; eg: /system/etc/bash, etc. adb push these to the appropriate locations. Sorry, too lazy to make a zip file. Enjoy.

I am going to build a new version of adb for 2.2.1 which sends you to bash when you adb shell into your device. If you desire support for other versions, let me know and as time permits I will add them.

[HTC Inspire 4G] simonti:
Why do my inspire 4g seem slower than my 3g nexus1 on t-mobile network? I get a better experience watching YouTube video on my 3g nexus1. On the inspire its slow to load and I get a lot of error message that pops up during a video. I paid $580 for my n1 so I could leave when I want. I think I have 15 days trial with this cell. I don't want to be trapped in a 2 yr contract and I'm not satisfy .

And what the help is up with this black screen while I'm trying to type? I thought it was just text messages but its happening now
[HTC Inspire 4G] alex4lex:
I am not impress with your grammar.

If you're not happy, like you said, you can always return it and go back to the N1. It's a solid phone. As for speeds? Maybe you live in an area where T-Mobile has their "4g" on and AT&T doesn't. (As in, AT&T doesn't have much if any of their backhaul implemented.)

I get around 3Mbps down and 2Mbps up at peak. Videos are smooth and this phone is fast. For me anyway.

As for the black screen...don't know what to tell you. Texting is peachy for me too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kezell:
I am very impress with this phone.

I dont know whats up with the texting issue but my speeds vary by location.

Hope you get it figured out.
[HTC Inspire 4G] andycai:
Are you using Inspire on Tmobile? I believe you can only get EDGE. This phone is for AT&T...
[HTC Inspire 4G] simonti:
This is not English class. You sound like a fan boy. I read many post with grammatical errors and if I could reply with a helpful comment I will.

The phone is not perfect so stop acting like it is the best thing since slice bread.

The phone was marketed as at&t first 4g phone. Is it 4g? Not.

No cell phone is perfect but having slow 4g and black screen popping up while typing in landscape mode is really annoying. If these issue cannot be resolve then I would leave when I'm ready to
[HTC Inspire 4G] simonti:
I left T-Mobile to come to at&t for the inspire .
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcca555:
Nope phone is not perfect... well for me it is

this phone was dirt cheap

i have not experienced the black screen while texting... you might want to look into getting a replacement

as far as 3g/4g it is pretty lame we get "4g" in april but i cannot really speak on that since i am on wifi. well hope all goes well for you if not there **** load of android phones coming out
[HTC Inspire 4G] Papa Luigi:
I upgraded from Fuze, definite improvement in hardware there, but even compared to my wife's HTC Aria, the Inspire is a better experience for hardware and software.

However... AT&T where I live (Yolo County, CA outside of Sacramento) does not have 4G yet. I have not achieved the speeds and cell calls can drop because of poor reception in very specific neighborhoods. AT&T did not lie when they marketed this is the 4G phone. The coverage areas suck right now for 4G, that's all. Buyer beware, especially if you don't do your research. Your other problems with the phone may be specific for that phone itself. Get it exchanged for a new one. If AT&T wants to keep your account, they should help you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RMXO:
The main reason why I switched from iPhone to Android was all the drop calls & esp when calling another iPhone. Lucky for me, my Inspire has yet to experience any drop calls *Knocks on wood* in the Bay Area.

@OP

I would take the phone back & ask for another one. Maybe you were unlucky & got a lemon.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtg465x:
Exchange it. No one else here is seeing this black screen and getting the error messages you're talking about. As for the network speed, T-Mobile's network is just faster than AT&T's in some places right now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 2kgt:
The phone is 4G capable as advertised. Just because you have a 4G phone, it doesn't mean that you live in a 4G coverage area. 4G speeds don't just magically appear by themselves.

If you don't like the phone, take it back. Nobody is stopping you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RogerPodacter:
ATT has changed the inspire firmware so it has slow upload speeds. root fixes it so it will be like the nexus one. right now you are limited to 0.3Mbps upload speed, which sucks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] poriggity:
This. If you don't like the phone, get rid of it. My guess is, you don't like it because it doesn't support your language... Which by the tone of your posts, is not english :rolleyes:
[HTC Inspire 4G] bmolloy:
Is anyone else getting tired of the "this phone is not 4G" line? I read the at&t page about their 4G plans and they are VERY CLEAR about what they are doing. No this phone does not have LTE, yes it will have HSPA+ as it gets rolled out. With this phone we are pretty much early adopters of AT&T's network. Those of us that have been early adopters before don't seem to be too worked up, those that clearly have not been early adopters are pretty ticked off it seems.

Do I wish I had faster download speeds? Sure I do, but I knew coming into this that there would be a bit of a delay with that because I READ the AT&T 4G page. Is this the perfect phone...??? Of course not, because we all know the perfect phone has a laser beam built into it and this one clearly does not, other than that glaring weakness I think it is pretty good.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Hypnopottamus:
Let me chime in here. It's NOT the phone's fault. It definitely IS AT&T's fault. Their "4G" isn't really 4G. It is what they call HSPA+. Pretty much the device is AWESOME, but AT&T's service SUCKS.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
Ok as alot in this post has said 4g is not turned on in many areas, the phone is 4g capable, even 3g phone isnt always on 3g it drops to regular edge, 4g simply means that it can connect to there towers at 4g if the tower has the software upgrade. Now for the other misconceptions, 4g what is it well different people have been defining it differently, lte is considered to be 4g while it can achieve speeds up to 100 mb theoretically it does not get that, any of the lte networks that are up are running much much lower then that, hspa+ which is also considered 4g which was done first by tmobile can achieve speed up to 45 mb theoretically. U wont see those speeds for some time its room for expansion is all it is they are not going to max those speeds anytime soon. So att is rolling out hspa+ which is technically 3.5g and calling it there 4g network and also rolling out Lte which both are considered 4g and using them to overlap each other.

Same thing as cable we keep getting upgrades I have over 50mb connection wasnt long ago it was way slower, no matter what they wanna call it, u will keep seeing speed increases as they upgrade to handle the load.
[HTC Inspire 4G] AnyMal:
So what do you want from us? Don't like it? Return it! Problem solved.
[HTC Inspire 4G] akira02rex:
1. It is marketed as 4G because it supports att's 4th gen network which is rolling out this year and is available in major cities only at the moment. Until then, you will get 3.5G speeds on 850/1900mhz frequencies. Tmobile does NOT use this.

2. Black screen? Dunno what that's all about but I'd either get a video of it for us to see or return it for another one.

3. And this phone is the best thing since sliced bread brotha. Haha. Can you say 3000 in quadrant? Wow, lets see your N1 do that.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
it doesnt support lte only hspa+
[HTC Inspire 4G] alex4lex:
I'm not sure how you got the phone, but AT&T's return policy is 30 Days, not 15. You have a while before you make a decision to return it. If your text box is acting up or whatever, I'd exchange it... that's not a common problem. As for 4G? I think everyone here has said enough about it. It's not the fastest phone... yet. Like I said before, you need the backhaul in place. AT&T is rolling that out, but they haven't said when and where.

Am I Fanboy? No. I have logic and reason to back up why I want to defend this phone's honor. There's a reason for all your complaints (except that black text box issue, get a new phone)

It's a great phone at a great value. How many android phones can you run at stock and have it be this smooth? Camera is wicked fast, display is great, gps is awesome, and for me? Internet is speedy, and will only get faster. :D

I'm happy with my phone. I'm sorry you aren't. You could return/exchange it. You have options, man.

[HTC Inspire 4G] simonti:
I came from the planet mars and we speak marconi there. I drop out in the second grade, don't have a job and I'm a bum. Now what does this have to do with my issue with the phone. I'm not allow to come to the inspire forum and post that I don't like the phone because of the problems I'm having. If I decide to return my phone and go to a different network, its not because of some 15yr old behind a MAC.

To all who give helpful comments I decide to call at&t. I was told to take out the battery so they could do a reset and download Google YouTube app. I was also told I have 30days trial. So far everything seem ok and if I get that blackscreen 1 more time I will exchange it
[HTC Inspire 4G] Hypnopottamus:
Your issue with speed is network related. Your issues with Youtube is the first of it's kind I've heard of on the Inspire. Do what you have to do to get your phone working the way you like. But for the record, I've had ZERO problems with Youtube. The Network speed is has to do with the fact that AT&T's "4G" coverage is spotty at best at this point in time.

[HTC Inspire 4G] bahairus:
I don't believe the Inspire will work with T-Mobile's 3G network. They operate 3G on the 1700 MHz band and that isn't supported by the Inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kc1867:
what the help is up with your grammer? i is very impress.
[HTC Inspire 4G] darknessxyz:
I don't get it. One of the reason I pick Inspire because it has the same 2G/3G band frequency like the Desire Z (G2). If Desire Z works then why not the Inspire?

Quote from GSMArena:

HTC Desire Z

2G Network	GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network	HSDPA 900 / 2100, HSDPA 850 / 1900 - North America

HTC Inspire 4G

2G Network	GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network	HSDPA 850 / 1900
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
That desire z will work on att or tmobile, its using 4 different 3g bands tmobiles 3g band is 900/2100 while att is 850/1900 3g band which is only covered under tmobiles 2g band which is why you cant get any better then edge connection on tmobile but desire z can operate either or 3g network bands
[HTC Inspire 4G] darknessxyz:
Let's see if I get this correctly:

The Desire Z has four 3G band 900/2100 and 850/1900. T-Mobile use 900/2100 and AT&T use 850/1900 that's why it'll work on both network. Now Inspire 4G only has 850/1900 which only supported by AT&T and that's the reason why it won't work on T-Mobile.

Will it possible to fix this by flashing a new radio into the Inspire? (if there's available out there)
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
i dont think so its a hardware problem
[HTC Inspire 4G] darknessxyz:
Thanx alot jc. Now, when I look for a new phone (whatever brand/network), what frequency I need in order to work on T-Mobile 3G network, 900/2100 right?
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
yea those are there operating bands otherwise you will just have 2g if you have att 3g bands
[HTC Inspire 4G] RogerPodacter:
T-mobile usa does not use 900/2100 for 3g, it uses 1700/2100. But the same end result, the inspire won't work on t-mobile 3g.
