Agreed!! Its about time!

downloading now. I have never used pandora period but I have heard it's really nice so I will give it a try.
Thanks.

just an fyi... pandora doesnt support HERO. so if ur running hero on ur g1 it wont work grrrrr

This is amazing... I've been emailing Facebook, Pandora, and Huffington Post weekly to release official apps. Whenever I got a response, it was "sorry, but we're working on it... we have multiple projects going", etc. Now two of the three release in one day!

Well that will teach me to go a day without looking at the market!

Jizz in my pants.

Check them out online first to get a better understanding of how the music genome project works. For example how it breaks down music by its various elements and uses your choices to find other music with similar elements. Also look into how the rating system works into that and influences what music you're served...
I've been using Pandora for years... I love the concept and their execution...today is a happy day for me.

So which player do you guys use? Im currently testing out Mixzing

I use cubed

i second cubed (?!?!?)

3rd vote for cubed

Getting quite boring but: 4th vote for Cubed!

Cubed is rocken!

Doubletwist

I'm trying Mixzing now, but couldn't find Cubed in the Market. Do you have a link for the APK?

Mixzing only one with an audio EQ. Thus my player of choice.

Mixzing is good!! Its growing on me, but i have to admit the EQ isnt that great needs a bit more work

If you want more opinions there's a thread about this topic in the general android software forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733651
I was also trying to decide on a player. Ultimately I chose the paid version of mixzing.

I like bTunes because I can create a current play list and/or playlists for later.. I didn't see any others which seemed to do this.
But the iPony interface has GOT TO DIE. I hate it.

Truthfully, this list to vote on is quite limited. There's just so many.
I've looked at winamp, cubed, ttpad,google music builtin, player pro, amp and a few random others.
Of the list above I haven't found one I love yet and havent tried many of what the OP posted.
TTpad is not good at all, it boggles my mind why people keep +1 ing it all over the place? For bleeps sake, at least make it multilingual so us purely english speakers and readers dont have to deal with script which means nothing to us.
Google music is decent and free. It needs a home screen, album art, lyrics. Player Pro has it. This thread has inspired me to try mixzing (but its UI artwork didnt grab me). I'll post back with a real vote.
Edit: I went to play store to try mixzing, noted it wants permissions to read personal data and log files? Screw off. This is unnecessary. I'm not trying it.

personnaly i dont care about permission...
And i use Poweramp. great music player you xan add themes

I understand many people don't.. but you should! If I could make one change in the smart phone community today, this would be it!!!
Do you walk around with your credit card number taped to your back and magnified with the CVV code there for convenience? Do you videotape your intimate relations and play them at work or school publicly? Do you enjoy telemarketers calling you at any hour and automated systems trying to sell you stuff that oddly relates to a web search you placed a few days earlier? Does your family & friends enjoy getting these annoying calls when their cell phone # has been learned from your compromised phone?
Clearly I am exaggerating, but not as much as you may think. This is quite a realistic relationship. You should care.

Miui Music Updated

Here's the newest version of miui music with a newer theme-
I don't know what the "music download" option is. Included is the .apk (place in /system/app) or the CWM flashable zip (thanks chopperthedog)

Pardon me but....this app is ****ing awesome... I love the look, the ui, and being able to filter your music by folder or size is something that should be included in every music app...great work...

I tried the CWM zip option and found the touch alignment is off. In order for me to make selection I need to tap slightly above the desired item. Otherwise, yes, very cool music app. Beautiful interface.

It happens with both. The .apk within' the cwm zip is the same. I noticed that too. Touch the very top of the album art.
good day.

Interestingly enough, after rebooting my phone and starting MIUI Music my touch calibration seems to be spot on now.

Miui Vs Poweramp
In terms of functionality how does Miui compare to Poweramp? I can appreciate its aesthetics but if the equalizer, supported formats, and gapless playback isn't there then it becomes hard to justify changing.

Hi I paste .apk file in to app folder, player is working but is in Chinese... How change language?
EDIT: OK i download another version in english, but older...

Holy sex...thats what this music app is. PURE SEX. This app should go straight to Google to be used as their default, this app is absolutely amazing.

It's in Chinese for me too, but the screenshot shows it should be in English. Where can I find the same version in English?

So can someone take this app and make the ENGLISH version install like a normal app for those of us that are not rooted or don't want to flash it in to the system directory?
I know this can be done because did that for a previous version which allowed me to use MIUI Music.
Also, does anyone know where I can find the source code for just MIUI Music and not the whole ROM?

I like this but is there a way to take it off?

Change and pause songs with the stock headphones

Looks nice! I've been looking for something that looks as nice as the Samsung Player but ISN'T reliant on the damn TouchWiz frameworks.
Let me know if you need help with any of the artwork!

Thank you for the feedback. I am actually making it such that the app is theme-able, so I would need art or graphics which would be bundled under themes in the settings.
If you can make themes I would bundle them with the app. If you can I would send the template which i used for the "Neon Sketch" (default - hand drawn using GIMP) theme.

10CHAR!

I rather like this.
It's got a minimal feel too it, especially the now playing screen. Goes well with Precision 3.0 I think.
As said before, headset controls, widgets and lockscreen control would make this player a fine choice.
Keep up the good work!

Can yours be controlled on the lockscreen?

Any chance off supporting scrobbling for the lastfm app? You'd have me right there.

Well I know that DoubleTwist can be controlled from the lockscreen, although it just replaces your lockscreen with its own version...or that's the best I can guess.
Im still an Android newbie.
Heck, if headset controls are implemented I'll be sold right there.

Updates
Lockscreen controls .... im not sure i'll be able to do that without help.
The initial idea was that the app would not require anything extra than a phone with music on it - hence it does not require an internet connection - hence reducing the file size.
So.. a version would be made that would have the scrobler and any other features that require the internet.
Thanks guys for feedback on this.
I am working on homescreen widget to control the app.

If you're trying lock screen controls, this may be of help:

[Q] Can anybody tell me something about this Walkman music app?

I got this Walkman app from a rom (I can't remember which one). But I can't seem to find anything like it.
Can anyone tell me if its the original app or a mod or a miui or something?
I've attached the apk if you want to see it for yourself. But it can't be installed from the SD card normally. I have to put it in /system/app of my rom and flash it for the app to work. I don't know if its a permission thing but kudos if you could figure it out.
Here's some screenshots:
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, the interesting thing about this app is that it can choose from my music library when I set my ringtones or alarms. I haven't seen any other app that can do this.

You will not find any real Walkman player around here. Only MIUI Music mods.

That's what I found out too by searching XDA and google. That's why I'm curious about this app.

How did you come across this file? It's the ..... strangest thing. Perhaps its origins may shed more light on its true nature ....

It came with a rom I used before. My guess is that its from one of the early versions of GingerXperia by xperiafan13 but I'm not quite sure. Also, the only other rom I really use is doxianh's GDX. Did you try the app? Its actually a decent music player in my opinion.

I could be wrong, but isn't that the Walkman app out of the W8/E16 ROM?

Does this mean its the original walkman app? and not just some miui o mod? And if it is the original walkman app, has there been any update to it? As I said its a decent music player unfortunately the look of its UI is quite outdated.

I think it could have really came from xgin since there was an issue with the "originality" of GingerXperia a few months ago, if I remember correctly.

Sweet! Now on the quest for an update from any possible forum!

Google result with the new info about xgin and this app resulted to this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081515http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081515
Its not quite the app I was talking about but I'll try it anyways. Who knows this could be a newer version of this app.
UPDATE:
I tried the app from the link and unfortunately I don't think its a version of the app. The UI is quite different and it also doesn't have the option to choose from my music library in setting ringtones or alarms. It also had fewer options like the shake to skip. So the hunt continues
