Music pauses

[JensR]

Hi, 

When I start a song, it pauses itself after just a few seconds. I then try to start the music again, with the same outcome. How quickly it pauses, has escalated over time. I tried to reinstall Spotify on my mobile, but it had no effect. 

My phone is a Samsung S2 GT9100(or something). 

I also recently installed a task-killing program, but I have checked that it doesn't interfere with spotify, also this problem occurred long before this. 

What is the problem and what can I do?

Hi. Are you getting this happening with both streaming and songs downloaded to the S2?

[JensR]

Yes

[Joe]

OK. Please try a clean reinstall following the instructions here.

That didn't work...

Can you try fully restarting your phone including taking out the battery for 30 seconds (if possible on your phone)? That often heps with streaming problems.

[JensR]

That didn't work

Does the same happen when using the built-in player to listen to music?

[JensR]

Yes it did

Then it seems to be a problem with your galaxy. I found this thread which might help you over on androidforums.

Thank you!
