RunGPS and TCPMP with A2DP audio issues

[Technix2002]

Anyone else have issues with their A2DP headphones while running/jogging with their Touch Pro 2?

Here is what I notice with A2DP headphones on:
Works fine when I set my phone down on stationary surface and I'm running on a treadmill or using the eliptical.

Skips and cuts out while running with phone strapped (using an iPhone arm band) to arm.

The only difference between both scenarios is that I run RunGPS while phone is strapped to arm. Just like I mentioned before, I wonder if BT and GPS are on the same chip and I'm taxing it by running both at the same time?

Wow, no one else? hmm...

get some wired headphones for running outside. since you strap it to your arm, are the wires that big of a deal?
also might try disabling sense while running, maybe the phone is lagging in general.

I just saw your post ... I've been using RunGPS w/ A2DP to my Logitech (I think that's what I have) headphones and haven't had ANY cut outs. I keep my TP2 in a fanny pack designed for MP3 players I got on closeout from Best Buy.

I have noticed that the latest version of RunGPS seems to have GPS issues more often
Its odd, because the version notes indicate that it was supposed to FIX issues this the HD2 which I figured would be quite similar to the TP2.

Anyways - A2DP is working fine for me while running. Maybe it is your headphones?

Oh, and I usually use either windows media player or the HTC Sense Player. I like the interaction with the headset buttons (volume, pause/play, skip tracks etc.). I have tried the Mortplayer, but the buttons didn't work (maybe volume did).

Good luck and happy running!

Yeah, it could be my headphones... however, when I run on a treadmill the headphones experience the same motion as running outdoors and yet I get no interruptions and clear audio. I'm beginning to wonder if it is the arm band that I am using, it is designed for an iPhone and fits rather snuggly on my TP2. Maybe it is causing the keyboard slide sensor to shift and interrupting processes? Does anyone happen to know any way to temporarily disable the screen rotation upon opening the keyboard?

Bueller?

Does anyone happen to know any way to temporarily disable the screen rotation upon opening the keyboard (slide sensor)?

I experience the cutouts using my Moto S9 headset but not while running but riding my bike. When I've got the headset running and I'm just walking around the audio is fine, but as soon as I get on the bike the audio starts getting choppy. I have a velcro pouch that straps to my bike frame that I stick the tp2 in. I can walk 30 ft away from my bike and have clear signal but as soon as I start riding I get all kinds of breakups in the audio. I am not running any GPS at the time except for location and using the HTC music tab.

I tired Endomondo while listening to a streaming radio station and I got a little less hiccups. I wonder if maybe RunGPS is tasking my phone's GPS enough to cause issues with my A2DP (especially if they share the same chip)? RunGPS collects a lot more data than Endomondo and has extra features like voice announcements.
