Hello All - I am really hoping someone here can help me.
I have a new Samsung Galaxy S3 - just bought it 2 days ago.
I am running Android 4.1.1
I have the screen set to timeout at 10 min (this is the longest amount of time I can allow - previously I had a HTC EVO 4G and it was set to "Never" and I did not have the issues I am experiencing)
I have gone into Developer Mode and set it to "Keep phone awake while charging"
I have "Smart Stay" set to "On" - this allows the screen to stay on as long as you are looking at it.
When listening to music streamed to my phone via Google Music, at 10 min the phone screen goes dim, the "eye" comes on in the task bar and then it brightens again - after this it continues to play the current song, but will not switch to the next song, instead it locks up and will not work again unless I reboot my phone.
I am used to listening to music in my car via Google Music and want to continue with my new phone - this is driving me crazy. Listening to music is one the primary functions of my phone.
I have tried using Google Music to play locally stored music - same thing happens - it locks up after the phone reaches its 10 min timeout setting.
I have tried changing the timeout setting to 1 min - same issue, only worse - now it locks up after each song.
In a nutshell - Google Music locks up when phone reaches its 10 min timeout and is only recovered when the phone is rebooted.
Any suggestions would be helpful - "Help me Android Central Forums - You're my only hope!"
