Android sound lag

Android sound lag

Hey,

I use Spotify premium since a pretty long time and always had playback problems on my SM-N9005 (hlte). Since it got way worse in the last few months im gonna ask for help here, ive litterally tried everything i found on the internet:

- Full wipe

- Other OS (currently LineageOS 7.1.2, newest beta)

- Cache wipe

- disable every battery saver option

- clean spotify install

- spotify on sd/internal, wifi/mobile/downloaded tracks 

- removing spotify from my permission manager

- phone speaker, cable speaker, wireless speaker/headphones

- other stuff i already forgot

 

No matter what i tried the problem persisted:

Usually every minute i get a second long audio lag. Its like pausing the track for a second and then continuing, sometimes its worse and stutters for up to 5 seconds.

As mentioned, i tried everything, 10 different custom softwares as well as the original Samsung OS (problem was the worst there btw.). I also have another HLTE Note 3 which has never been rooted nor flashed a custom recovery (Knox counter 0, just in case somebody wants to complain "dont expect support if you use alternate sotfware"), the problem is the same there.

Basically every other music player app ive tried works fine and as mentioned ive tried everything to fix it. 

Imo it seems like the spotify music player sucks, but im gonna wait for some help before complaining too much here and beeing an **bleep** (edit: lol idi. ot gets censored, even if im only blaming myself :p)afterwards.

In the long term i might have to look for other streaming services since those lags are awful, even though i love spotifys available music and its design.

 

I really appreciate any help, if you need more detailed information feel free to ask me.

Thanks in advance!

Jonas
