Music stops after exactly 30 minutes

[AC Question]

Hi, I have a Galaxy S3 (GT-I9305) with Android 4.3 installed (from Virgin Australia). I have been playing music on it with mostly WinAmp, and recently PowerAmp.

About 6-8 weeks ago music (via WinAmp) stopped after exactly (not approx.) 30 minutes of playing. It then required a stop/start of the app to get it to play again. So, I tried PowerAmp, same issue, and exists with either player for both connected headphones or a bluetooth headset.

I've check every setting, thinking that previous issues with a 30 minute screen timeout might be the problem, but nothing seems to be related.

a) Has anyone experienced this too?
b) Has anyone got any thoughts/advice?

Cheers, Rob.

That's a strange issue.

Try booting into recovery mode and wiping the cache partition. Hold volume up + home + power for a few seconds until you get to the recovery screen. Then use the volume button to navigate the screen and use the power button to select the options.
