I have a problem with the headphones output.It happens to me while listening to music the sound is interrupted for a second and then it backs to normal, as if I turned off and back again headphones.It happened with the previous phone to.Because of that, I suspect that the virus problem.Any help?
 
Yes, it sounds like a short in the wiring, or even a problem with the connector jack.
Might be worth trying a different pair of headphones, and if it still persists, take it to the service provider to see if it could be a faulty jack. They might even replace it for little to no cost to you.
 
I had an MP3 download app that had the opposite problem – it would play files through the phones jack without my ordering so. Perhaps your problem is similar in that it’s a third-party app interfering with normal operations?

Not a virus. Maybe you're multi tasking with different programs on at the same time and your processor is temporarily over loading or caching data to your SD card which will interrupt read speeds of your music files because they're reading (listening to MP3 file) and writing (caching) to disk at the same time.
 
Do you mean different headphones or different telephones?

A virus is the least likely answer (not least because there aren't any - malware exists, but not viruses. A technical distinction, I know). A phone is multitasking even if you aren't running another app in the foreground. I assume that's why you think a virus might be responsible - running in the background and using cpu cycles - but it's far more likely you have legitimate processes doing that.

You don't say what phone you have. If it happens in the same places it could be a problem with the card or data. Or the headphone connector - does it happen if you play through the phone speaker?
 
I mean telephone :) My last telephon was ZTE Skate an now i have Lg L9.Trying to format microSD and factory reset and we will se :)
 
It was answer to SkyJackpots question.I try microSD format and factory reset.Nothing,problem is still here.Copying some music in telephone memory was not helpfull to.Can i disable auto regulation of volume level when i put my headphones into telephone?Sorry,my english is not so good,i can't explain better :)
 
Are you sure it's not a muted or low volume notification tone? Often with notifications, the audio will be paused or muted temporarily while the tone plays.

I agree with this. If you get a notification while listening to music, the music will pause for a second then resume.
 
It happened to me a few times. It could be the music not being ripped properly or you have a faulty headphone jack.
 
It hapened to me with old telephone to,it's not a jack problem.Simplified: music plays-icon of headphones is visible on the screen,headphones is plugged all the time,for the moment icon disapears and back again.During that moment music plays at speaker.
 
So the problem probably lies with the music. Is the music properly ripped?
