Android Music Beta - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Alright I know you guys are going to be more help and faster than Google contacting me so here it is.
So I got invited to the music beta for google. I have uploaded my songs and am all signed in all that jazz. But the problem is that under the music beta i dont have a "options" choice under soft menu button. I am running CM7 on a galaxy s captivate btw. I have installed, unintalled, and reinstalled couple times with restarts included. No bueno. I have even replaced the music.apk in system/app with no luck still. Users that have been successfull have said as soon as you start the app you will be asked to link with your google acc. I didnt get that option. I dont have the sync music option either under android settings. And i cant sign in manually cause it doesnt even display a options menu choice! Thanks guys!

You did download music beta from the market right? Mine works fine on CM7.

You try to wipe its data from manage app. Reboot then restart app? Turn on auto sync for a minute?

I've been using it for months, video doesn't work but chat and voice calls worked fine.

I am using it since november with no major problems...(status bar won't slide down sometimes).. There is no option for video call, but I am pleased just with voice call.. If you need video call , search market for "tango video calls"

Do you still have to kill it in the task manager or is there an option for closing the app now?

Was just being an idiot. It is just that the OP said "last time I tried" where the app has been working for months.

Facebook app

Anyone else have this issue? Starting this afternoon my Facebook app launches the browser version of Facebook. It starts the app and acts like its going to load feeds and then opens the browser.

Opened Facebook app and noticed it's redirecting to m.facebook.com. Maybe something's wrong with the interface servicing the app....

There's a Themes & Apps subforum for these kids of issues. Please use it.
Yep, same issue for me, starting today. If you read the market reviews, there's dozens of similar complaints, all dated today.

Ditto for me. Uninstalled and re-installed fixed it. Hope it stays that way.
I have that same problem. I am running on a stock rom 2.2 from kies update. I am rooted but have not flashed a custom rom yet. I have uninstalled and reinstalled a total of 3 times and still have the problem and yes I did do a reboot after I uninstalled before I reinstalled. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I think we just need to wait for them to fix the app, sadly. It doesn't seem to be any issue with the phones or corrupted data - it's something in the app itself. With all the people complaining on the market, I'm betting they'll post an update shortly.
I was checking something with this app before I put my phone down for the evening. When I woke up my battery was dead. Check out the pictures, stay awake 7 hours and it was the biggest drain on my battery.
I'll try the uninstall and reinstall to see if it's any different. Cognition 5 beta 2

Can't open contacts

Anyone have this issue or know how to fix it. When I try to open up contacts it will send me back to the home screen and says "aab initializing" Never seen this before in any android so I'm kinda lost. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nevermind got it. It was caused by freezing the att apps.

Which AT&T app did you need to unfreeze to get contacts to work again?
I'm betting it was contact sync. I used to close that service all the time cause I didn't care if my contacts were being backed up by ATT. Turns out it was controlling my entire contact app.
Yeah it was the contact sync, if I remember correctly. Been so long since I was on the stock rom can't say for sure.

I just fixed this on my d4 after trying to avoid the inevitable.
I did a titanium backup of apps, backed up call logs and texts via sms backup/restore and call log backup.
Then factory reset.
The installed adobe air..
Then installed flash player.
It works

flash works for me. went to newgrounds.com and was asked to install the plugin. it took me to Google Play and it installed and worked. it's weird because i thought Adobe pulled it from Play?

Can you guys post a apk link? I don't see it on the Play Store.
Works poorly for me on both my razr(totally stock ics) and droid 4(mostly stock ics with root). Tried unistalling, reinstalling, and wiping on droid4; it still works funny. /:
I went to titanium backup and froze an app called FlashRemoval after i reinstalled Flash and clicked "uninstall recovery" in Safestrap. Its been working like a charm ever since!

install and set browser agent to desktop and you get flash... at least on my d4... worked on my nexus 7 as well and thats jellybean lol
OK... sorry for bringing this thread back around... is there an apk for higher then 11.1 flash?
Sent from my DROID4 using xda app-developers app
There isn't and won't be since Adobe turned their backs on Android. I've read that they might still include Flash Player in the new Windows Phone 8 phones, which stinks of politics and backdoor deals to me. MS pays Adboe to develop Flash for them and cut out Google and Apple. Bah!
