I see that the NOTE uses ogg files for the camera sounds, but the stock music player and winamp says the phone doesn't play them.
Glad that they will play FLAC but why no OGG? If someone can confirm a player that works, perferably free or not £3+ I'll be happy.
I can't get my head around why they won't play!
Thanks in Advance ppl!
Not sure about other ROM versions, but on my LQ2 the stock music player handles ogg files without problems

am I the only one who cant get WMA files to run???? half of my music is WMA and I cant get it to play in android at all.....
any suggestions on a fix??
http://www.jodix.com/ worked for me.
yea I was hoping I wouldnt have to convert them all back to mp3.... I ripped them into wma to save on space on my old phone to begine with... even made sure there was no DRM protection on the files so that they would play on most anything... but looking around it seems there isnt any real support for WMA files on android.... some phone will play them(looks like most of them have NEON support in the chips though) but most android phones dont do WMA
thanks for the link that looks like some decent freeware apps to convert files though!!!!!!
PowerAMP. Should be stock player. Awesome. Paid though. No need to covert it plays all files.
Kyo M6000 Rooted with NoAds or Bloatware.
Yea that looks like me only option.. poweramp looks realy nice! Thanks for the suggestion

it is super nice. EQ, with preamp, Cover Art, all kinds of stuff. Plus the major bonus of not having to hastle with converting all your WMA into MP3 and so on. Just put the music on your SD and go. WAY nicer then the stock music app
only some wma files play on my defy
I just paid for upgrade to power amp and still some wma files do not play on my defy. using 2.2.1 and have always been able to play only some of my wma files, even with stock music player. I even plugged the phone into a pc that does not have these music files on it, and was able to navigate to them on the sd card and play fine from the pc, so can't be corrupt filers right? have tried many diff't android market players but same results on all. any ideas? thanks.
Its a rights issue i would imagine. Never had a problem. Try writing the application developer.

I recently flashed to MIUI, but I've been using the MIUI music app for quite some time. After flashing the newest ROM, still using MIUI, the media player isn't recognizing any of my WMA music files, only MP3.
I'm pretty sure previous versions of MIUI music have supported WMA, is there a plugin I can get or anything? I've tried looking through the settings but haven't found anything relative =/
Bumping for a look, anybody have a clue how to include these?
Ok, last try then I'll give up
Try to change music player... Maybe PowerAmp... Btw... Don't use wma in my opinion.....

Hi guys,
Wondered if you could help in suggesting a good music player besides the standard MIUI one, (I'm on an MIUI rom), that plays almost everything especially music which has been ripped of YouTube into a MP3 format via an unnamed YouTube rip app. MIUI music player thinks they are all videos but on other roms with galaxy s standard music player recognizes them as music so makes it much easier to play them all.
Ta.

Try doubletwist or poweramp, google play music should work too.
I like player pro.. mostly because of its feature of selecting the music folders.. only files in the folders you have selected will be shown in the music library
I'm currently runnuing MIUI Android GingerBread ROM 2.4.20 and I must say it's simply the best ROM I've ever used. It's almost as if it was built with me in mind.
Fast, stable, easy to use and on the eye interface. Brilliant.
I've installed and run the ICS version and as good as it is, there's one thing that's missing: What happened to the music player's ability to play WMA files? I have over 400 albums that I've encoded in WMA format due to small file size (1/5 of mp3 filesize) and I honestly cannot tell the difference between mp3 and wma over my headphones and in the car. Any ROM tips and/or advice on how to do this avoiding 3rd party app like TTPod? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Mayby not the best solution but dude... WMA ? why WMA ? WINDOWS MEDIA AUDIO... WINDOWS... dude.. It's like making FLAC file from MP3, you CAN do it but WHY?!
I would go for MP3 using VBR which give you good quality and lower file size or lower the bitrate there is less problem with MP3 than with WMA. But it's your way to store music. And if you happy with that - thats great.
Did you try .. winamp for android ? --- oh, you didnt want 3rd party app...
Like I said, WMA was made by Microsoft which is close for community. So I doube there is a easy/clean way to play those files without 3rd party apps.
try other music player like winamph

Now your on ics, you can use the great apollo music player. Dont know for sure if it supports wma though.. but i gues it does. I'll post .apk file bellow.
This is stock music player from cm9. It is very good, downloads album covers by its self. It fully supports lockscreen control, notification bar control and widget control (apollo wodget that is )
Just give it a try, you wont regret it
P.s.1: sorry for bad english
P.s.2: hit thanks if i helped and apollo can play .wma files!
P.s.3: i'll upload file to 4shared, will post later this evening

4shared link to apollo.apk
Sometimes you have to wait 20 seconds, but ik hope that wont be a problem
Edit: just confirmed that when you download it via mobile, you will need to sign up. Via laptop browser is free and you dont need to sign up.

I dont get it, just because it isn't open source (why would you actually need open soucre music files....), they make a music player wich supports a lot of music types, but they dont let it play the world second-most used music file type... that sucks... but what can i do about it...
well there are other music players in the store wich are also awsome, like doubletwist player! I used it i while, before i got to apollo, i hop that solves your problem

Android and WMA
Thanks one and all for your advice.
As mentioned, my choosing WMA files is purely practical asI can store 4 times as many MP3's on my phone.
I had to settle for PowerAmp which not only supports WMA files but also seems to read all ID3 tags perfectly (on MIUI GB I had to download ID3Fixer to read artist tag).
I'm back with a quick update: Still no joy getting WMA files to play on stock music player on MIUI 2.8.10. I did flash King Soft 2.10.26 and though I did not find the ROM stable enough for me, the stock player did play WMA files (without ID3 Tagging as with older versions). I attempted copying the .apk into the .zip file before flashing but after flashing, Music doesn't appear as one of the applications. Apparently this may have to do with how system apk's are deeply embedded within the ROMS on JellyBean. If anyone has any advice in porting system app, (Specifically Music.apk) from JB to ICS, I'm all ears.
For those still interested, you'll be happy to know that the MIUI ROM 3.2.8 supports WMA playback. Kudos must go the the developers who knowingly/unknowingly fixed this issue. Unfortunately the issue of artist ID3 tags not being read persists but you can download the ID3Tag Fix app and it'll sort it out for you. I'm still using PowerAmp for this and my collection of now 4,500+ music files still fits comfortably on my 8GB memory card.

Check in the settings of Apollo for searching, if not, perhaps the music is only being saved/accessible by using the app, so move the music to a separate folder on the root of your desired storage and check again? It's working fine for me having the UK top 40 in a folder on my SD card, it's all read fine..
also check if you have .nomedia file in your music folder perhaps
The music files are located on external sdcard under mp3.
I try to copy some of music to another place but don't help.
.nomedia is not excited on external sdcard I under mp3
When I go to tubemate select a video and click on save as mp3 then flash a ROM the music is not showing but under Video Player I see the music video that I save as mp3 format.
Maybe it help to know when I was having my neo and the music are it was not showing I change the mp3 ending to m4a and it was working but now dont work.
