3 Music Player - Amazing

Just downloaded and tried '3' Music Player and it's very very good... Definately worth checking out...
Search for RockOn in the market and it's the app with a small "3"

Yeah I tried it. its pretty cool just needs alittle bit more tuning.

It stops playing for me when the screen turns off. Anyone else having this issue?
Looks sick, and hella smooth though

Not having that problem myself!
From what I've read theres a lot more to come from the dev on this one...

Yep! ³ has definitely replaced my default music app. I can't wait to see what he adds to it next.

Whoa! Crazy concept that one is.
Would be great if you had the option to have song/album/artist lists instead of JUST an album cube...

Best music app for Android I've seen.

One annoying feature, if you enable the headphone controls, it starts the player whenever you push the button (i.e. skipping a song in Pandora launches RockOn3 and they play simultaneously). Would be great if there was a playlist by folder creation function as well.

i got a problem with dis player it get freezed i dono y.... pls help me....

I just tried this out and it certainly contains the eye candy I love while still mainting usability. If I go past the Z however, it spins the opposite direction without stopping. I have to go to view mode then back to the three to stop it.
I love the automatic album art downloader too. Does it save the art to the actual mp3 file or to the app itself?

Crazy concept. I like it!

For some reason, I can't find it in the market. Is it still there?

so search Rockon and you will find it

Yep, search for rockon and it's the third one down if i remember correctly. unfortunately the "3" is "³" as in cubed. Not sure why they chose such a hard to search for name...

I hate to say it but I've moved back to the stock music player. I can't stand how this player functions and it is painfully slow.

Best music app?

Looking for a full features (think iPod with a good widget) music player app that displays album are beautifully with the Widget on the desktop and is also quite useful... opinions ?

So there are no good music apps for Android?

Go with Cubed (^3) and you will never look back. Granted the 5.1 surround sound in the stock player was nice but I don't miss it.

Awesome music player, thanks

MixZing is really good and full features. Only con is it's expensive at $6.99

I use the Music player from the Cyanogen ROMs. I found it over on their forum somewhere.

Can't seem to find it over there, could you help me out mate?

I like the Samsung player. My only complaint with it is that it's a bit tedious to set up playlists on, and no widget surpoort. There are a number of really great widgets for the stock Android player, for which I believe I saw a thread that will help you install it, but I haven't gone through the effort to install it so I can't comment much on it.
Cubed is kind of a neat player, great for showing off, but the eye candy makes browsing fairly inefficient (imho), and having the controls at the top of the screen is a pain.

Cubed is good unless you plan on using the lock screen option, then it's garbage.

I was unimpressed with ^3/Cubed. Nice eye candy, but hardly functional.
I have Mixzing installed and it seems useful, but it's my secondary music player right now.
TuneWiki was cool for the lyrics display feature, but the interface is ugly as all hell.
DoubleTwist is the nicest looking and most polished of the bunch, but also no support for m3u playlists not synced via the DoubleTwist client (which was unacceptably slow for me). Maybe I'm just using it wrong.
The default Samsung player would have been great if it would just recognize my m3u playlists. WTF, Samsung.
As is, I actually installed the stock Android player. It's minimal and functional. I've heard MusicMod is a nice addition to it, but it looks like the latest version is only supported on Froyo.

I ended up going back to the default Samsung Player. The lock screen widget works the best of all the apps I tried and it has no issue seeing my playlists I sync over using iSyncr. Its biggest weakness is the lack of controls via the headset button. Play/Pause works but no forward or back.
A friend used bTunes which looks the nicest out there IMO. A close second was Doubletwist but the lack of a lockscreen widget was a deal breaker. Thing I hate the most from all 3rd party apps I tried (aside from dT) was that they all indexed multiple copies of my playlists. It was a pain trying to guess which of the 4-6 copies of my playlists I saw would actually have the music inside them and I got tired of always deleting the blank ones everytime I sync'd.
If Samsung can add some additional headset controls and a smart playlist feature I will be very happy.

I have to say though that the stock Samsung Player is quite handy and non-laggy.
I especially like the 5.1 option, which is god-like.
Other than that, it doesn't have many features but it is convenient.

Nobody has mentioned Meridian; I like it quite a lot.

I'm with you. The 5.1 in my car sounds amazing. I wish I had two options though:
1. I want to "lock" to landscape, without auto-rotate to the CD GUI.
2. It only rotates one way! Turn the phone on it's right side, and the CD GUI is upside down.
If these two issues had workarounds, it would be perfect.

I like DoubleTwist....

I've been using btunes with Widget locker to get lock screen controls. Works nicely!

I use museek. I loved the samsung player but the only issue with it was the sever lack of a random play mode.
Museek REQUIRES ID3 tags.
Museek supports album covers, Last.FM scrobbling, Sleep(auto stop), Lock Orientation,Gapless playback, and its free.
Play modes are: Repeat all, Shuffle (with the option to shuffle whole collection or just with in the playlist), Smart shuffle, Play similar songs (with the option to avoid repeating an artist until a specified threshold of songs have played).

Stock Samsung player has shuffle. Tap the screen and it's the two intertwining arrows just above the progress bar on the left.
So what players have a lock screen function? I hate the dang lock screen on this thing. Maybe I can turn it off, never thought about that.. heh.

The ONLY thing that I don't like about the stock music player is the fact that songs without album art show some gay-looking colored circles... Why not just a simple neutral graphic? Why not give an option to change the default picture?

Power Amp Music Player

If anyone is looking for a really good music player with a nice UI and equalizer then POWER AMP MUSIC PLAYER is exactly what your looking for. Unlike MIXZING which was my daily driver (as far as music players go), POWER AMP MUSIC PLAYER does not skip or force close the equalizer when you use apps or browse the internet. I currently have my phone hooked up to my surround sound system and I am running the POWER AMP MUSIC PLAYER app while typing this post on my phone (of course) and there's no lag or choppyness of any sort. This app supports equalizer, lock screen widget, home screen widget and currently 3 themes. The downside is that this app is a trial, but I gaurantee that you'll purchase this app before or at least at the very end of the trial. NO I AM NOT BEING PAID TO ADVERTISING THIS APP NOR DO I PERSONALLY KNOW THE DEVELOPER OF THIS APP. I just wanted to shed some light on this app since I love MIXZING, but hate the fact that the equalizer will not function when other apps are being used. THIS APP CAN BE FOUND IN THE ANDROID MARKET BY SIMPLY TYPING "POWER AMP".

It was? What part of it was laggy or was it the whole app itself? Every single part of the app felt smooth to me, but I guess we have different views.

HTC ONE Music Player

Hi Guys.
Can anyone tell me is there a way to get the HTC One default music player to work with other devices such as the S4? I love the htc music players visuals when you press the note button and you get the 3d effects, however I dont really use the htc one as it does not work with my setup, but would love to get the player on the s4 or even an alternative from google play?

HTC One stock music player apk. This is the app you can move to your phone and install, but I'm not sure if it will work on other phones or not. Make sure you install it to system/app as it's a system app. Hope this helps.

I am not sure of it( because I use PowerAmp mainly), but i think the stock HTC player needs the Sense framework in order to work properly.
But you can just try out the .apk provided to see if it is working

Thanks folks, having read up it looks like you need the framework for it to work, I see they are working on a sense port to the S4, its a shame there is nothing like it on the market as I think its the best music app I have ever used and I have tried them all!

Recommendations on music app similar to Sony's?

I have joined the Samsung family after having been with Sony for many many years and the 1 thing I do miss are the music, keyboard and weather apps/widgets. Other then that I am loving the S10!
I do want to ask what music apps people are using though? Ideally I want 1 like Sony's as it gave me the option of a widget and I could download album art on there. I have tried many of the apks that are available for the Sony one, some don't work on the S10 and some work flawlessly EXCEPT I cannot make a playlist or add songs to my favourites. However when I tried doing these on other music apps and then going back to the Sony one, the songs will appear on my playlists?! Is there a reason for this? It's really bugging me that my S10 is not yet perfect for me :crying:
Any advice or recommendations are welcome!
Thanks:fingers-crossed:

Samsung Music 16.2.16.10 (Available On Apk Mirror) is the best music app ever made for offline playback. Its very colorful just like Sony's Walkman used to be.
For Editing Album Arts etc I would recommend Star Music editor from the play store.

Poweramp!
It's also the only music app with folders search in android auto

The Samsung app is very nice, but not usable for anyone with a music collection over 10k songs. It will only play the first 10k songs in the music players list. I've tried many different ways to get it to play different ways and it basically only plays the song you selected and the 9,999k in the first of the list from what the app can see. It wasn't like this prior to the apps updates introducing Spotify into the app.

The Sony music app, de-crippled to allow installation on all devices, is available on XDA here:

This is my favorite app for music quality, which supports different phones that have built in Hi-Res DAC or a dongle
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.usbaudioplayerpro

Thanks everyone for your recommendations, I'll give them all a try later on =)
Also thanks for the link to Sony's 1 but I have already tried that and as mentioned, creating playlists or adding to favourites doesn't seem to work ? but for some reason if I create those playlists in another music app, they will appear in the Sony one?! Anybody know why or how I can fix this please?
