Ok so I noticed on the gingerbread roms (except miui and cm7) my music is read for what it actually is. For example say I have "Hey Jude" by the beatles, but when I bought it, it is saved with the track number like "07 Hey Jude". Then it has all the album information in the categories. This information is all visible on my computer and 2.2, 2.1, and CM7 & MIUI, and the name of the song is listed without the track infront of the songs name. But on gingerbread, I noticed it doesn't read the information and it will say unknown artist and album etc and it will list the song as "07 Hey Jude". Sorry if this problem has already been addressed.

My friend downloaded a program for his G1 called Tunewiki. I was wondering if there was a similar program for our windows mobile devices.
What is it? Is it like Music ID that comes installed from ATT?
No. Its a music player that automatically searches for and displays lyrics. It also gives options to see music videos for the song you are playing on youtube plus other neat features.
Update: Found a nice music player that downloads lyrics called MiniLyrics, but nothing as in depth an tunewiki. Maybe one day the devs behind tunewiki may port it to WM...only time will tell.

Im pretty sure there must be something like this among those 20-30 thousand apps for WM.
I remember using some player that displayed lyrics (if attached) while playing mp3, and it had option to find lyrics on some website. I can't tell you details because it was so many years ago when I was using VOQ smartphone, but what I mean is: keep searching

Well I found a nice app for that purpose, its called MiniLyrics. The thing is, Tunewiki...well, look for yourself. Click the link and check out the video.

Good point, tunewiki is no longer available for new users. They complain that there are too many users for what they can support. I'm looking at the minilyrics now.
Well, I sent an email to the guys over at TuneWiki, and according to them, they have ports for WM and Blackberry in the works. Its pre-alpha though so it might be awhile. Oh well, at least they are planning to bring this wonderful app to WM!
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.

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...
Hi,
I have SGS with Darkys 7.0 Gingerbread edition.
I have problem - example - if I add 10 songs to playlist, then in playlist will be 30 songs (each song 3 times)...
Do you know what is the problem and how to fix it, to add me song just once?
Thanks
or is it possible to reinstall original music player?
which app should I use?
Why on earth are you posting this here? I would suggest asking this question in Darky's forum. That way, loads of people using the same rom can see this and help you. Maybe even the developer himself. Hope you find an answer.

What happens:
The phone refuses to play most media types, refusing to play songs, movies etc that had played without issue previously.
Music:
The stock touchwiz music player refuses to play mp3s, cycling through the playlist attempting several songs before exiting back to the list, displaying the error message "Sorry the player does not support this type of audio file". The same message is given when trying to use Fede's music app (fedecarnale's wp7 style music player)...
Video:
The video player gives the message "Sorry, this video cannot be played." while an alternative app QQ player plays the media without problems. Another example is the youtube app which gives "There was a problem while playing Touch to retry".
When does it happen:
This problem presents on both my Captivate and my girlfriends Vibrant after a non specific amount of time. One the problem presents, it remains regardless of memory or cache clearing, app closing etc.
What fixes it (temporarily):
As soon as one of these errors is given, the other apps behave the same way, and a reboot fixes the issue temporarily.
So I don't know enough about how the phone works to sort out the common cause of it all... but I can give you any information you want if it will help you sort it out... I realize that the difference between QQ and video player must be different than between fede's and the music player... I gather that he must be using more of the same stuff whereas QQ might bring its own codecs or whatnot... Any help would be greatly appreciated!
tldr:
I'm having media/codec issues with my SGS on froyo, have you heard of the problem? any ways to fix it?
I used to have this same issue when I was running Doc's XWJS8 Froyo rom with Hardcore Speedmod K13E Kernel. Since I switched to Simply Honey 3.5 Gingerbread it hasn't been a problem
I have this issue on stock Gingerbread ROM from Samsung (JPO). I didn't find a cure for it.
customer support was useless as anticipated, they suggested that it could be a corrupt app and I should factory reset... that is always their recommendation...
its just unusual that both my girlfriend and I would have it on different phones, different carriers and with a different set of apps...
The only real apps that we share in common shouldn't be going anywhere near media such as launcher pro and some games...
Well I was reading on another forum that Twitter for android seemed to be causing media files not to be read. More than one user reported no further problems when they uninstalled the twitter app and started using something different.
So it could be an app not playing well.

I have an AT&T Captivate with Froyo and I get the same issue. It is exactly as described here.
My phone has the froyo you install from Kies Mini.
Model number :SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
Firmware version 2.2
Baseband Version I897UCKB1
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9
I will try uninstalling my Twitter app and see.
The annoying part of this bug is that when i have a custom ringtone based on an MP3, it would not play so I would miss calls. I hope uninstalling the Twitter app fixes it. I'll reply back with it after a day.
This issue happens to me after about a day from restarting my phone (on/off)
I've gone a full day so far and my media still works.
I guess it is the twitter app?
Edit: yes it is the Official Twitter app causing this issue for me.
After uninstalling 2 days ago, I have not experienced this issue.

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!!
Here is what you are looking for...

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

was hoping that it wouldn't come to that, guess I was wrong
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.
