HTC ONE Music Player - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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!

Quick question about music player

I'm the former owner of a Kaiser and I really love that phone I'm in the process of replacing the screen but in the meantime I bought a G1 and I kinda fell in love with it but there's still 3 things I miss 2 I don't think will every be on google os is tomtom, windows live. and htc album manager so my question is can htc album manager be cooked or flashed or pushed to the android ? I really liked the music player cause it had audio manager which was the equalizer so can this be done or is there an equalizer for the g1 I have the audiohack and the headphone booster there's like no overall sound cause I use my phone as my mp3 when I'm driving so the external speaker is louder but distored and the headphone boost is not that great. Any input is greatly appreciated

I don't believe there is any third party player that has an equalizer or whether the HTC Music app from the Hero has one. Nothing can ever ported from Windows Mobile.
yea I figured that when I first got my g1 and tried 2 download winlive and it said it can't be run on google system oh well maybe microsoft will make a winlive app 4 google one day. and maybe on of these great devs on here will make a equalizer 4 the g1

But you can get the GPS program now, its called CoPilot. And if you want to log onto windows live messenger, can't you use meebo?
Is the CoPilot app in the market or is it a software program ? Also I didn't use the windows live messenger I just liked the live search guess I did say windows live forgot to put the search on there my bad but thanks 4 the input I really appreciate it

CoPilot is on the Market for like $35 or something. Its a full nav software with online updates as well as offline navigation. From what I hear, definitely worth the money.
yea it does especially if u can update it online and it's free. Sounds awesome thanks will look into it

Possible to port HTC Music.apk to Android 2.1?

is it possible to port the HTC Music player from Sense 2.1 to a vanilla Android 2.1 such as Cannon, Open Eclair, etc?
i'm guessing changes need to be made to the build.trout and sapphire.prop files...
I'd say it is possible. Whatever works on 1.6 will also work on newer versions of Android (i guess)
But the HTC music widget is checking the build.prop and so on. Maybe that could somehow be disabled?
You can also just take an htc sense 2.1 dump
Maybe the framework from semse can be taken like it was possible in 1.5 roms?
that's what i was thinking as well. can't really do anything at the moment since i'm at work.
It's gonna be the same as the 1.5 version, framework problems and things that need to be ported, not a direct drop and edit a few text files.
bump thread
I would love to have htc music app on a 2.1 rom
It's a lot of changing in the framework and then a simple push of the Music.apk file. Unfortunately changing framework from source is complex and not for beginners.
We might have better luck using the music.apk from the MT3G LE since it's very similiar (if not identical) and it already works on 1.6. Haven't tried it though.
That's the thing, you can't do it like that because of the closed source HTC framework.

From the LE yes, but from Hero, no. It's been done for a few Cyanogen ROM versions... but it's old (I think back in early 4.0 days).
I have my HTC Magic and before I upgraded I could add songs to the now playing list before the current song finished playing. So I could make a song/album play after the current one was done. After I did the upgrade to the latest ROM I cannot add songs to the play queue and that sucks.
I have tried Mixzing and I can add to now playing, but it adds them at the end and I can't move them.
Like if I have 10 songs in my list and am on #5 when I add a song it becomes #11, sometimes I want it to be #6 (Play right after the current song). I cannot change the order of the play list. On the new ROM's default player I can but there's no point if I can't even add songs to it. All I can do it take an album and add it to Now Playing, if I want to hear a song from a different album then I have to clear the list and change it to that album...
Does anyone have a copy of the old HTC Music that lets you add songs to now playing, and if not does anyone know a Music app that lets you add songs to now playing and change the order of the play queue. I cannot beleive there aren't any apps to do this, I searched the market and google for Music players and not one does this...

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!

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?

Samsung music player needed

I've been using samsung devices from when the android era started to when I bought Asus Rog 2,
And I think that samsung music is the most simple and featured music player of all the available ones.
So I checked all the ported samsung music apps available out there but none seems to be working with the device.
Can anyone help please?
I was in the same state a few months back. Samsung's music player app cannot be ported to other devices, unless it's part of the Galaxy lineup.
I searched for an alternative and ended up using Poweramp.
It has a really good looking and customizable UI and looks awesome with 120hz display.
Try poweramp

Samsung music works here. I used it for a while but uninstalled due to ads. Try Poweramp as others suggest or use VLC.
Thanks guys.
Just bought the Poweramp, it turns out it's really good.
Thanks again for the suggestions

PowerAMP is great, and there are other apps honestly i would consider are leagues better than most stock apps.
Noteable ones i can think of are.
- PowerAMP (as you already know)
- BlackPlayer EX (tones of customization and audio control)
- Retro Music Player (very modern, well designed and has audio control)
I tried PowerAMP for a while and found it drained battery faster than the other apps but if you don't have any battery problems its an amazing app. personally i have stuck to BlackPlayerEX because i love the customistion options and the UI is clean and because i usually always carry alot of songs (1000+) on me its got the fastest interface as some other apps struggle.

Tbh simplicity of the samsung music app is something that I am still missing.
It's gonna take a while to get used to these 3rd party music players.

if you really want you can just download the samsung music app from the playstore or try sideload the apk
I don't have my ROG Phone 2 yet so i can't test it but i imagine there's no plausible reason it wouldn't work.
