Came across the new leaked Android Music Player 3.0.336 on engadget today. Thought I'd try it on my captivate installs and runs, seems to lag a tad sometimes but runs otherwise. I'm running Serendipity 6.3
There's some info here: http://www.droid-life.com/2011/04/05/download-new-android-music-play-3-0-336/
Also below is the apk attached.
it seems to work pretty well. Just wish it worked with touchwiz's lockscreen and pulldown controls
My Conclusion
I suffer no lag and my info on all my software is below but i am overclocked to 1200ghz that might be why it isnt laggy for me and also i tried the new gallery apk from the same site and it didnt work but i didnt feel like trying it but maybe you could use root explorer and paste it in the system/app folder and move the stock one to the sd card to see if it works also if u wanna remove the stock music app and put that music app in its place do it the same way i just mentioned
im trying the new camera from the link as well

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...
I am having issues with the gallery in CM6 RC1. The gallery opens, but will only display pictures taken witht he camera since I installed this ROM. Is there a way to specify filepaths for the gallery to look in to find all of my other images? I have searched quite a bit for a solution, haven't seen this topic come up for anyone else. I'm not a dev, but can follow directions pretty well. Any help would be appreciated.
Just reboot the phone, that's what I did.
I've rebooted several times, also wiped the phone and reflashed everything. I installed a 2d version of the gallery, with the same result. Some of my albums also fail to show up in any music player...I can play them through file explorer, but can't even see them in the players. When I flash back to DD2.7 or 2.8, the files show back up where they should be.
try going into dev tools and start the media scanner... worth a shot
The media scanner didn't help, I had run that a few times already. Thanks though.
Try finding another program to edit photos, open and save them. I had a simular problem with my music, and went through all the songs with an mp3 tag editor doing that, and it all came back normal

So, using the CM6 RC1, it is not using the same music player that came with the phone, therefore the stock headphones' inline control buttons no longer work. Anyone know how I can install the stock music player?
I've always wondered why there were never any vanilla roms with the stock music player that comes on all the sense phones, considering that the mytouch with the 3.5mm jack has the same stock music player that comes with the slide. I would use CM6 if it had the stock music player from the slide.

Well I kinda messed that one up. Tried pushing the HtcMusic.apk/odex files from the CR OTA ROM, rebooted, and didn't find it, so I launched the apk from Linda File manager. The phone rebooted, and now all my apps on SD have double icons... ugh
Not sure if it will work because it says its for 2.1 but maybe worth a try.

There's a HTC music for 2.1 in the G1 section, give that a try. Pushing the one from cr will do you no good,it was not for froyo.

Well, it installed no problem, and launches no problem. Will have to wait until I get home to see if the headphone controls work. Thanks
Bah, it will play music, but gets FC's on various functions, primarily when trying to view the playlist.
The new Music Beta by Google app was leaked a few weeks ago, but it was a little buggy for me, so I was going to wait until the official release. well, it's out now, but it's not visible on my phone's market. It's visible on the web market, but my device is not listed as compatible. Requirements list froyo and up as a requirement, but nothing really else. Do you think that they're phasing out older devices again or could this just be a hiccup on the first day release?

MyTouch 3G 1.2

you could try installing it manually...

It still doesn't work in landscape mode for me, but thank you for the link. It will play music and I guess I'll find out later if it will sync music. After further research, I don't think that the Magic/MyTouch line is supported by this app because of OpenGL 2.0 being needed. I may be off though.
I installed the standalone apk and it installed and works just fine for me on my HeroC. Considering that the Hero and the MT3G are almost the same phones they should work fine.
Well, they're not exactly the same and there must be a reason it doesn't show up on the market. I get a FC every time I go landscape. I know it's not important, but I just want the album coverflow to work.
I can now confirm that music sync works just fine, but I want to know why it's not working with this model.

So, I am running ParanoidAndroid on my GN and its f'cking amazing, but...
Something that I miss very, very much is the stock music player!
I have a lot of music and my twisted mind likes to create and organize playlists in a certain way and this is where I'am getting frustrated...
Samsung stock music player has a magical option which I cannot find, or I'am just to stupid to find in every other music player I tried
After creating playlist by selecting that playlist it shows all my music and that magical options-- ADD MUSIC, and then option to select all or just a few via checkboxes!!
I dont care abaut equalizer and all that other stuff, I just want back that simplicity!!
Please help- call me stupid, show me light, recommend me app that can do that- just HELP!!

Check out post 9 and 10.
Thanks, tried it but thats not it!
I have to add songs one by one. I did found thread which states basically that I cant get what I want because someone has to port apk from /system/app because its linked in samsungs Tw framework and will not work with aosp rom no matter how i push it!
Or something like that...
Wish that i can provide link to thread but cant find it right now(working)!
If I got something wrong abaut this, KILL ME, I'AM A NOOB

LMAO, don't think your a NOOB if you can flash your phone with a custom ROM. Any ways have you tried creating your playlists on iTunes or WMP and just exporting the playlist to your phone

Anyways, thanks very much for helping,
Will try to find app on the play store than can do what I want
I flashed Paranoid Android to my Note coming from JB and everything's awesome. However, I too, really miss my stock Samsung music player. Did you in any way find a solution?
Btw, I backed up the apk of my music player using ES File Explorer before flashing. But when I try to install from it, I get an "Install failed" error. Any suggestions?
I really connect with your post because I also edit the tags on my mp3's in a particular manner which used to go really well with the stock Samsung music player.
I have exactly the same issue, everything else about Paranoid Android is amazing!!!
I have now started using WinAmp because I couldn't find a solution, but I would love to be able to get the stock music player back if it's possible or something similar
afaik, it's most likely not going to work because the stock music player relies on touchwiz framework, which paranoidandroid isn't based on.
