[android-developers] I can't get Speaker Phone to work on my App
No matter what combination I have tried, I do not seem to be able to get the speakerphone to turn on and play out the speakers like it is supposed to. I have headphones plugged in for testing, but the app does not seem to play out of my HTC 626. The frustrating part is that it works on my HTC Desire Eye perfectly, but not the HTC Desire 626. I heard the issue was a matter of model, but I cant seem to make it work at all for my HTC 626. Does anyone know have any idea of what I can do to fix this problem?

Re: [android-developers] App works fine on Kitkat, but does not work on Lollypop
It doesn't show any errors, that's why I am confused, it does say skipped
one media player item...but throws no exceptions...just doesn't act right

[android-developers] App works fine on Kitkat, but does not work on Lollypop
I made an app that tests the speakers in an HTC phone. it tests both the
bottom speaker, the top speaker, and the headphones, all while the
headphones are plugged in. It works perfectly in the HTC Desire Eye that
is running KitKat 4.4.4, but it does not work correctly on the HTC Desire
that is running Lollypop 5.1. In the lollypop phone, it only plays from
the bottom speaker, and if the headphones are plugged in, it goes through
the headphones instead. I have been looking everywhere but cant find the
answer. Does anyone know what I should do to make my app work in
Lollypop? I have included the code in case you see some deprecated code
that I should update. Also, the app does not crash on Lollypop, just does
the audiomanager or mediaplayer doesn't work the correctly. Thanks so much.
