Use Music player with 10% battery? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

No, I think he's looking for a hacked galaxy s music player, not a modified stock android 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.

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?

[Q] Walkman 3.x from SymbianOS (W950/W960) to Android (X8)

While on the subject, when I use Bluetooth audio in the car, the samsung player automatically plays instead of google music. I have selected google music player as the default but the samsung player always starts to play. I am not able to deactivate the samsung player app. Is there another work around to not let it play at all?

That doesn't seem to work for me. Only way it controls it at all is if I start playing the music on the phone first, which is rather annoying. Am I doing something wrong?

Also works perfectly with BubbleUPNP.
I use my phone as the renderer and my tablet as my interface/playlist when driving and I can use my watch to skip/volume/etc.

yes, that is how it is working for me as well.
The best solution i have found is to freeze the stock samsung music app with something like titanium or rom toolbox. Granted you need to be rooted for this but it works perfect for me. I workout with a set of lg tones and control everything from my gear. I can confirm it also works to start music from the gear rather than opening google play music first.

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.

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.
