My google music works fine. And does it really take longer to uninstall/reinstall then it does to make a thread and wait for a reply? Or does this happen often and you have to uninstall/reinstall? Cause like I said, Google Music has no problems for me. However, I'm using a slightly older version (4.1.512) that's was modded to be transparent - don't know if the newest version might have issues?

I'm using 4.1.513 with no issues.

Mine works fine,but i added my own music and only play music at home on wifi normally.Never had any problems with it not showing.

I would try uploading my local music to google music.You can them make your google music available offline as well.

Do you have a custom ROM? Did this problem start with an upgrade such as ICS? I have ICS on a stock, unrooted Vivid. The Google Music app is 4.1.513. As soon as I started it, it found all my local music on the SD card as well as albums on my internal storage I had recently purchased and downloaded from Google. I don't mess with streaming music, so if that is what you're doing, maybe someone else can help you.

Same sd card? If so try reformatting it (backup important stuff, format card, replace important stuff)
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium

This happens to me, too. The easier workaround than uninstall/reinstall is to locate the Google Play Music app under Settings/Apps and clear data.
Then use the Google Music app and go through the usual stuff. Your local music files will be there when you're done.
I know it's not a fix, but it's a better workaround than reinstalling the app.

Honeycomb Music App

Apparently some enterprising individuals have pulled the Honeycomb music app from the Xoom and made it into an apk. I had just finished applying a Skinomi screen protector when I saw the post so I won't be able to try it out until I get off work tomorrow. I was wondering if anyone had already tried and if so how it works, seeing as the app was designed for a tablet.
Works for me...
Running gadam v 1.1.1
Nice!
I have to say I prefer Rockon though.

From what I can see......it "pushes" the music on your device to the cloud so that if you remove the music from the device you can stream it from the cloud.
So the music needs to be on the tablet first and then sync it to the cloud. From then on it can be available to the device even if removed from the device.
Yep, I saw another thread about the cloud syncing ability which is where I first found the apk. tcrews is right, it seems you need to have the music on your G Tab first, let it sync to the Google cloud and then you can delete it from your internal memory/SD card and stream it anywhere you have wifi.
EDIT: Here is the post about syncing. I'm not sure if the cloud sync requires 2.3.3 or if it would be able to sync on a Froyo build.
I honestly dont think this is working at all right now unless you have a rom running 2.3.3 that seems to be the rumor even though all signs point to it being able to work with the sync buttons and such however im running the new music on my droid 1 running UD and having the music set to stream and my gtab isnt picking it up at all so theres gotta be some type of issue here.
Guess ill have to wait for the real google music to launch officially.

The actual streaming part of google music is working? or just the program itself.
I'm running Calkulin's Gtab Rom beta1, and this isn't working at all. I can see music in the app, but nothing plays and it doesn't sync. Am I missing something?
It works!
It works on the stock ROM too.
Pretty sweet!
I haven't had a chance to try the streaming yet. I'm running the 3/8/11 version of Vegan Ginger and saw under the account sync settings where you can select to sync gmail, books, contacts, ect... there is now a check box for syncing music.
May make the streaming on this player workable.

[Q] Android 2.2 music player pauses for 5-10s

My 2.2 Captivate (rooted, but little else) plays music pretty well mostly, but after 2 or 3 songs it pauses for maybe 5 - 10 seconds (seems like forever), then it resumes. Usually this does not recur during the remaining session.
This is not the expected pause I get when a new email, or text comes in. The 2.1 music player didn't seem to have this problem.
I have searched the forum (one comment suggests clearing data in the apps settings---didn't work for me) and the web and haven't find a solution.
Any ideas?

Where is your music stored, internally or externally? If the latter, maybe the card is going bad.

There's a thought. I might try to reformat my card or swap out temporarily with an old one.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Well, I reformatted by 32GB card (do you know how long it takes to do a complete format on these size cards??!!) and still have the problem.
Oh well. Guess I'll live with it.
music player
I have found that the
free
beta google music player in market works very well
I was having reboot issues playing muisic when the screen went dark in a couple of different roms and the beta google player solved the problem

Google Music Controls?

Any way to get the Gear to skip, play/pause Google music? Any one been able to figure it out?
I think it works just the same from what I've read.. I'll check once I get mine going tonight
Yes its working you need to put google music as default player.

This makes me happy :laugh:
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.

I do think you have to start it on the phone first, then it's good from there.

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.

Music Pauses automatically

Im on Existenz 2.0.0 with root and unlocked BL
when i listen to music the walkman app automatically pauses every 4 mins and i make sure that i cleared all recent apps and that i dont use any force close ram mangers
i posted this in the thread of the rom but no one helped me so im hoping that anyone could help me here
Pauses or stops and needs to be reopend again?
Because I have'nt seen any reports about the walkman application pausing everytime but I do know about the RAM problems of the SP where the Walkman app gets closed.

i think it pauses because when i open the screenn i see the notification of the application being paused
also the ram problems occur when people browse and listen to music but i listen to music while my phone screen is off
Do you have to restart the song from the beginning or has it seleted another one? If so then it might me closed due to RAM problems.

acctually to be precise the song stops because when i start it again it starts from the beginning and how do i have ram problems when i close all the recent apps and i make sure that i have 160 mg free ram
Well sometimes you cant help it. It is a known issue with this device.
You can always wipe data of the walkman application and test again.

You could try a factory reset of that ROM and test the walkman app without any other applications to see if it is app related or not.

Reflash the ROM is the only thing I can suggest at the moment.

I also experienced such glitches with music interruptions, i'm using walkman and V4A when using my phone as mp3 player. I found SOME SORT of solution and that its -- UNINSTALL ANY SD CARD TWEAKS such as SD read ahead speed or set it to device default. I suspect that maybe the tweak isn't needed coz i'm using Class-10 SDcard and applying such tweaks might be "SUPERFLOUS" and thus causing issues with music playback.
But then if still you get no better results...last option would be to USE ANOTHER ROM and uninstall the later. Just my opinion:fingers-crossed:

This should go in the Q&A thread and I hope the respective moderator does shift it there.
Anyhow, I'm facing the same problem you're. Whenever I access the library part of the app, it crashes. It also happened with the old mobile I had. So I don't think it's device specific.
Try the new Google Play Music..from Nexus 6..with material interface.
It should work..i think

Lol no! You don't have any problems with your handset. It's just that probably the playstore is buggy. Don't worry about, just use another player for now. I recommend poweramp
