Twitter App and Music Issues on Android
If you have been following me you will know that I recently got an android powered phone, specifically a Samsung Galaxy S (or SGS for short). Now I installed the official Twitter for all my tweeting needs and I can say that its a great app.
Unfortunately around the same time I started to experience a strange issue when playing music. When using either the Amazon MP3 player or the built in Music Player, it would simply not play music. Saying something like “Sorry, the player does not support this type of audio file”. The only way to “fix” this was to reboot the phone (power down and up). Most annoying especially since the phone has replaced my iPod as my default music device.
Strangely I have discovered that by uninstalling the official Twitter app, all is well again. It no longer cuts out ever. I cannot provide any evidence as to why the twitter application would related to my music players but the music works when it isn’t installed and breaks when it is.
It’s a shame as well because the twitter app is a good one. Hopefully an update at some point will correct this flaw or at least explain it!
