[Q] Music players?

What is your favourite Android music player? I'm trying to fish for a new one due to my stock music player being crap, and Winamp getting boring.
Is there a better player than Winamp, or is it the best by far? I am not just talking by what's on the market, custom ROM apps are fair game too.

Try PowerAmp.

The one from Honeycomb, if it worked.
Otherwise the one from Cyanogen 5.

I like using the Doubletwist widget myself. I have used Miui and like that player as well.

Winamp! Both on my phone and PC

Honeycomb is crashing. So the Cyanogen 5 one, why 5 and not 6.1?

Where can I find a working APK for this? I tried the one from the latest MIUI release (that had to be put in system/app to even install) froze whenever I wanted to enter playlists.
Also, on a side note, is there an APK from HTC Sense?

Whichever one is after they added the new nice graphics, but before the bundled and completely awful video player.

I'm a big fan of DoubleTwist. Nice widgets too.

It has last.fm support and synchronized lyrics. All you could want from a music player.

PowerAMP has the best features IMO. Best lock screenwidget , best headset control system, and best UI.
Winamp has a good start but it has not had an update in like 2 months? It has some deal breaking bugs for me, the major one being I cant answer a call if using lockscreen widget.

Poweramp is amazing and a wonderful widget.

The cm music player is best imo. Fantastic widgets.

They don't work, though! I am now using "Music Mod" from the Market, which is CM's music app, updated on a regular basis by its develooer. As far as I've tried, only the 4x2 works consistently... It's a waste, I like the 4x4. This is after 2 increments of bug fixes; CM is still on 1.6 while the market is on 1.8.
MIUI came with my latest ROM install, it is obscenely laggy...
EDIT: Why does everything fail once I post about its brilliance on XDA? 4x2 widget broke...

PowerAmp hands down. My very first Market purchase and it's worth every penny.

Favourite Music Apps?

What your favorite music Apps for your phone and why?
Personally mine are
1) Solo Guitar - a fun guitar app to play chords etc
2) Ultimate Guitar Tabs - now I can learn/play new songs much easier and have them on the go stored ob my phone
3) Guitar tools - I can tune my guitar with a tuner from this app!
4) Soundhound - I can find any song I want on the go
What are yours?

A couple of months ago I would have said Audio Galaxy, but now I'd say Google Music. With me, it's all about remote access. Google Music wins hands down for having both an Android app and a web interface. Means I have my music collection available anywhere where there's an internet connection. Win.
As for music apps that aren't just mp3 players (as you originally mention in the OP), then Caustic wins every time.

Full synth studio with drum machine, pattern making, song making, samples, synths - the works. If you like making music then this app is a MUST, but is a tad small on a phone. Perfect on a tablet.

Tinyshark, Pandora and poweramp

What Internet Browser do you guys prefer

Not on the phone on your PC's or macs.
IE is way to slow for me and is unusable imo.
Chrome is what i always use and currently use but its been on a crash course lately. and wont open up some website.
Mozilla is not bad, but haven't used it in a while
I want to know about Browsers that maybe i haven't heard of but are just as good. I know of Opera browser and used it once back in that day. are there any other ones out their you guys wanna chime in on.
Thanks guys/gals.

It's crashing on me broseph!! you think i want this to happen to me

I know it's the wrong answer, but I use Firefox, with a whole bunch of add-ons too.
Works well for me. I also have Chromium, but rarely use it.

There's no wrong answer at all here, i want to know your guys full opinion on what to use. I like appearance just as much as ability to get what i need done. Opera seems out the picture for me already, it can't even load twitter.com correctly.

I used to be a Firefox user but switched to Chrome a little while ago...
Definitely no going back now. FF is a resource hog...

I use Chrome on everything. But I use Firefox to download large files because Chrome likes to randomly cancel them when I'm downloading them.

Chrome!

Exactly the same here. Longtime FF user, until a friend suggested I try Chrome for a week. It took a day or two to get used to, but I wont go back!

Chrome is just too minimal for me. It only fits so many bookmarks in the toolbar, I can't seem to find an equivalent to the Foxtab addon to hide my tab bar and switch tabs with a shortcut button, etc etc. I have 4 or 5 FF add-ons that I just can't live without.
I tried with Chrome, there just doesn't seem to be any way to make it how I want it to be.
FF definitely is a resource hog, but that's not a huge deal to me. I'm not usually one to have more than 3 or 4 tabs open at a time anyways, so it never comes close to bogging down even my old Dell Dimension.
I don't mind using more of my computer's resources for the sake of convenience, ease of use, and appearance, but I can appreciate that others want a fast, light weight browser with a clean appearance that simply does its job and does it well. Chrome definitely is that.

I used firefox for a few years and then i switched to chrome because of its simplicity and speed

Safari on Mac and Chrome or Opera (For the gestures and sync) on PC. IE SUCKS!

Internet Explorer

Chrome
RcMix 3D Darkside Glacier HD
Tdj's Demonspeed v7 Kernel
Virtuous OC Damean
ClockWorkMod Recovery 5.0.2.0

Mostly chrome but sametimes i have to change to firefox
Or opera.

I, too, use Opera Mini.

Either Dolphin HD or Firefox Beta, your call.

Dolphin for desktop browsing, Miren for something else

+1 for Dolphin too. I also use it on the iPad and it syncs favorites between them which is kind of handy.

Opera Mobile. Because the stock browser is junk.

I use Opera Mobile and Dolphin Browser HD.
Sent from my HTC Vivid using XDA app

Im loving Dolphin HD more now that it has an evernote extension!

I tried them all, by far the best and easiest to use has been the Boat browser. Once you go Boat, you never go back.

I use dolphin personally due to its stylish user interface and gesture support.
Sent from my HTC Raider X710e using XDA App

Can someone explain the benefits of using a browser other than stock? I surf the web a lot (2.5gig a month) on my phone and have always used the stick browser...?

i prefer opera mobile, but i might have to switch back to dolphin since they have an evernote add-on now.

I downloaded Opera Mobile from android market.
At least is not transfering so much data.
Quick and fast!

It's all good
Really a matter of preference.
However some might do specific tasks better than others. For example the other day I tried Dolphin, Opera, Firefox and the native browser during a flash stream of a basketball game. I was hooked up to my home wireless router.
I never did get the flash addon to work properly on Firefox. Opera and Dolphin opened the stream just fine, but the video was jerky and hard to watch.
By far the best video continuity was with the native browser.
But I still prefer Firefox for general web browsing.

Really depends what you need from that and how you normally organise your music.
Personally I prefer to have a directory and file-based organisation, as most of the programs I've used until now tend to screw up and misread the albums especially if you've got various artists' albums. I do like listening to music, and rarely I'm shufflin'.
Anyway, recently I've started using MortPlayer Music: maybe it's not the best looking one, but does what I need and doesn't drain the battery too much.

poweramp has it all

Can't live without Google Music.

google music is my favourite, fits perfect to ics roms, and works really stable and looks quite good..
but its annoying that i can't choose ringtones with gmusic -.-
there is also a MIUI v4 music port on the net, looks really good but not stable at all

I really like cubed player.

Thanks for all your replies. I suppose I'll have to try them all out and decide for myself lol!
