Help Volume lowered and pausing music when plugged in to headphone jack

I think it might be your phones. Mine turns the volume down 100% of the time if its all the way up on 15 in the music player. Same thing in pandora or 8 tracks

If I turn it all the way up and click the volume button down one it will stay at the same level. I assume it just a safety thing so you dont blow your eardrums if its headphones.

*my phone is rooted and Ive tried nunerous volume control apps. nothing works but clicking down one lol
 
To bypass this problem just turn on the 5.1ch button located at the upper left hand corner of the music player. Works for me. Have volume at 15 with out turnin off or turnin down. Hope this helps for those who haven't figured this out. No need to root. :)
 
Mine does the same thing & I've just learned to deal with it. Here's what I do. Instead of turning it up ALL the way, turn it up to right when the message pops up & then just turn your car radio volume up. If it still pauses, turn it up to the notch right before the message pops up.
 
same problem, bugs the hell out of me.

someone before suggested using "Volume Control +" app so I did. I set the volume in Volume Control app to 13/15. I plugged in headphones, didn't wear them, just left them on the desktop and turned media volume up to full in the phones volume control. I played a whole hard rock CD and the phone never turned the volume all the way down like before. Don't know if the 'music too loud will hurts ur ears' msg ever came up. Hopes this fixes this very very annoying oversight problem.

Yes Samsung, everyone is too dumb to care about damaging their hearing. Stupid. And stupid there is nothing in 'settings' to turn that crap off.

Samsung Galaxy S3
using:
Rocket Player
Equalizer app
Volume Control +

:stupido:
 
I played 5 CDs/mp3s at full phone media volume and the phone has never turned down the volume since I set it in Volume Control +. I moved the volume up and down a few times with the phone and the 'music too loud will hurts ur ears' msg still comes up but that is all.

Hopes this is a perm fix and works for others.

Not having the same luck. No help from the app here.
 
I think i might have solved the big mystery. i too enjoy blowing out my eardrums with music and i often listen to youtube when im running. but then my phone (exact same phone btw) started doing the exact same thing. I just got new headphones so i waspositive it was my phone. but it never did this till i got new headphones. so the problems was my headphones! Have u ever unplugged your video and it pause? Essentually thats whats happening with what ever you have pluged in ex)headphones. It comes "unplugged" and stoped the video. and when it stops the video, it turnes down the volume, even when it "plugs" itself back in the volume is at defaul. this can be anything including those speaker things because they can plug up the same way, and like the headphones it will loose connection to the plug and "unplug" its self but if you touch the withe wire a cirtain way, it reconects to your speakers/headphones. my advice, find good headphones. dont be afraid to ask someone "is this good for plugging up to my phone" i realy hope this helps! Now lets continue to blast our music!!!

Definitely not my problem... My phone has had this problem on at least 3 pair of headphones, 2 different types of speakers, and my car audio.

Edit: thought of two other devices so I updated.

i think i fixed it via titanium freezing the following- ampTuning 1.0.0 , audiotestapp 1.0 ,audiotunning 1.0.0, codectuning by hss 1.0.0
i froze them all and it worked, time to play around and see which one(s) are fixing it.

I froze all these and it didn't fix mine. Tried them one at a time first as well. But no luck at all.

What I've been doing is like another person suggested. Just raise the volume to the notch that gives you the message and leave it there.
 
this has got to be the most annoying problem that I have with my 700 euro samsung galaxy SIII. what a fricken waste of money. I work out a lot, so listen to music all the time & this has just recently happened to my phone but I cant seem to find a solution to fix, have tried everything. what dumbfuks, for not disclosing this annoying hiccup from the beginning before i wasted my 700 euros! f u samsung -- iphone 5 it is for me, but 700 broke!
 
I just wanted to give my two cents on this. I also have a Samsung Exhibit II that did this when I had it plugged into the Aux jack in my car. Volume up to 15, and it would pause the music and turn the volume down every 10 or 15 seconds or so. my workaround was to just turn it to 14 and it wouldn't pause anymore.

at this very moment I'm using headphones and it's not doing it anymore. volume to 15, warning message pops up, but it's not pausing anymore. I thought it was because I just started to try out the Dolby 5.1, like someone mentioned earlier in this thread. so I turned the 5.1 off and it's still not pausing while I have the volume to 15. so I'm not sure what the problem was, it basically just stopped.

I am rooted but didn't freeze anything related to audio, at least I don't think I did.
 
I'd like to add a little something...

I think this "feature" is part of the hardware itself. It seems to detect over a certain db when the limiter kicks in.

I am now running a Cyanogen 10 based Jellybean ROM and I still have the music pause and volume decrease happen. I just turn it all the way up, then down two notches and it's fine.

The reason I think its db based is I've listened to mellower quieter music (no drums) at full volume with no pausing issue.
 
That message appears because the phone thinks you are wearing headphones. If it's using a car speaker, I think that message can be ignored.

The other day, I was listening to a radio station with the TuneIn app and I had the volume all the way up and eventually saw that message. The headphones used were cheap ones from a local dollar store and the audio quality from them was far from decent.
 
Old thread, but there is a solution. Use the free app Volume Locker. Set the volumes you prefer. Lock them down in the app and enjoy full blast at all times. Only downside is: you can't turn the volume down yourself unless you release the lock, but there is a widget built in to toggle this too.

You need to install odin on your computer. Download the latest firmware for your phone from sammobile. You use odin to install the firmware. Put phone in download mode, launch odin on PC and then plug phone in to PC. Wait for odin to recognize it. Click AP in odin and navigate to where you have firmware stored on PC and select it. Click start in odin. Unplug phone and reboot to system.
 
Bit late but I've sorted it on mine.
Plug your headphones in or whatever into the port and then go into your setting and turn your media volume right up then you should be fine to play your music as loud as the the phone can go.
