[APP] ZuneHD Player for Android - G Tablet Themes and Apps

This app is in alpha state. It works perfectly on Vegan GingerEdition and I am sure it will work well on any other version of Android on the Gtab.
This app was developed by the Launcher Pro genius.

Nice app & interface, however for me at least I prefer a player that also plays video files.
I still await the release of VLC Player for android.
Is the album art shown pulled from a streaming source or is it part of the music file tag?

pretty sweet. Cant wait to see the finished product.. I was surprised at some of the backgrounds it was able to find.

Care to elaborate? Are you saying it pulls images based on the music tag & then does a search accordingly & allows one to tag that image file onto the currently playing song or does it simply stream a random image on the screen based on the music tag of the currently playing song?
Ahh hell with it...I'll give it a try & post an answer later.

*sigh*Its me again...looking for more apps.

My friend downloaded a program for his G1 called Tunewiki. I was wondering if there was a similar program for our windows mobile devices.
What is it? Is it like Music ID that comes installed from ATT?
No. Its a music player that automatically searches for and displays lyrics. It also gives options to see music videos for the song you are playing on youtube plus other neat features.
Update: Found a nice music player that downloads lyrics called MiniLyrics, but nothing as in depth an tunewiki. Maybe one day the devs behind tunewiki may port it to WM...only time will tell.

Im pretty sure there must be something like this among those 20-30 thousand apps for WM.
I remember using some player that displayed lyrics (if attached) while playing mp3, and it had option to find lyrics on some website. I can't tell you details because it was so many years ago when I was using VOQ smartphone, but what I mean is: keep searching

Good point, tunewiki is no longer available for new users. They complain that there are too many users for what they can support. I'm looking at the minilyrics now.
Well, I sent an email to the guys over at TuneWiki, and according to them, they have ports for WM and Blackberry in the works. Its pre-alpha though so it might be awhile. Oh well, at least they are planning to bring this wonderful app to WM!

Android Native Music App

Just wondering, where can i get the native android music app on the hero? i've been trying to find a good, non-laggy music app for a long time now. The HTC one is laggy as it keeps trying to load album art when i scroll through tracks, this could be because im using class 2 SD card but thats still bad. is it possible to disable the album art loading? I've been using mixzing for a while and its the best substitute so far, good but not great. What are you guys using?
I think the native android music app should work best but i cant find it anywhere in the market, anyone know where to get it?
Personally i use tunewiki
use "3"
search "rockon" in market.
easily the best yet.
lovely UI too
honestly with the combo of the album art grabber app and the stock music player...its better than tunewiki mixzing and 3cubes
I would recomend MixZing. Works well for me.
Here is the .apk for Native Music Player. Confirmed working on Hero. It'll probably ask you to pick defaults for like every action in the app at first, just choose the option for the native player (obviously).
thanks for the apk! but when i push it it says: [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION]
im not sure why, is it because i have the HTC music app as well? i really want to try it! but lately i have been using 3 and it isnt bad, even with all the 3d animations its still pretty smooth surprisingly!

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?

Use Music player with 10% battery?

is there a way to use the music player when you have low battery, its kida annoying when on the train and the music closes because you only have 10% left. I can understand why that is there but it should be my choice and not the phones.
So just like someone hacked the camera is there a way to play music when 10% or below?
I installed musicmod from the market, it's not a Samsung app, it lets you do whatever you want and doesn't dictate how you should be using your phone.
thanks but was looking for a hacked apk for the music player.

Yeah everyone rips on Samsung all the time but to be honest, I really like the Galaxy S stock player as well, much better than any other I've seen. It's really well designed (aesthetically). Just wish it was supported by some scrobbling application.

Honeycomb Music App

Apparently some enterprising individuals have pulled the Honeycomb music app from the Xoom and made it into an apk. I had just finished applying a Skinomi screen protector when I saw the post so I won't be able to try it out until I get off work tomorrow. I was wondering if anyone had already tried and if so how it works, seeing as the app was designed for a tablet.
Works for me...
Running gadam v 1.1.1
Nice!
I have to say I prefer Rockon though.
Working on Calkulin's Gtab Rom beta1
so, does this support streaming already? can I play music from a mounted share? I've found not all music players allow me to choose where to pull the music from...

From what I can see......it "pushes" the music on your device to the cloud so that if you remove the music from the device you can stream it from the cloud.
So the music needs to be on the tablet first and then sync it to the cloud. From then on it can be available to the device even if removed from the device.
Yep, I saw another thread about the cloud syncing ability which is where I first found the apk. tcrews is right, it seems you need to have the music on your G Tab first, let it sync to the Google cloud and then you can delete it from your internal memory/SD card and stream it anywhere you have wifi.
EDIT: Here is the post about syncing. I'm not sure if the cloud sync requires 2.3.3 or if it would be able to sync on a Froyo build.
I honestly dont think this is working at all right now unless you have a rom running 2.3.3 that seems to be the rumor even though all signs point to it being able to work with the sync buttons and such however im running the new music on my droid 1 running UD and having the music set to stream and my gtab isnt picking it up at all so theres gotta be some type of issue here.
Guess ill have to wait for the real google music to launch officially.
Its not running on vegan 5.1.1

The actual streaming part of google music is working? or just the program itself.
I'm running Calkulin's Gtab Rom beta1, and this isn't working at all. I can see music in the app, but nothing plays and it doesn't sync. Am I missing something?
It works!
It works on the stock ROM too.
Pretty sweet!
I haven't had a chance to try the streaming yet. I'm running the 3/8/11 version of Vegan Ginger and saw under the account sync settings where you can select to sync gmail, books, contacts, ect... there is now a check box for syncing music.
May make the streaming on this player workable.
