I use my phone as a mp3 player alot but the software that came with android is very limited and does not give you enought options to use our phone as a fully funcional mp3 player. Like for example creating playlist, search songs by name or artist with the keyboard. etc.
I hope some developer is working on a better player...
You can do all of that you mentioned already. To add to a playlist long-press on a song and choose add to playlist and you can make a new one or add to an existing one. To search just slide out the keyboard and type it will return all results for artist, song, album, everything. Hope this helps

thanks you right about everything. I just found something else I have every album in separate folders let say I would like to select just one folder to play that album only, is there any way to do that, because as far as I see the player looks for all the music files in the sd card and display them in the library together.
thanks
I don't think you can organize by folder but maybe try clicking album on the home page of the MP3 app? That will read all the ID3 tags of the MP3's and sort them by album to play. Unfortunately what sucks for me is a lot of my music files are .m4a from my iPhone which the G1 can play but I don't have album art or tags or anything and it blows because you can't add tags to them and I don't have the time to convert them to mp3. Oh well, hope this helps you!
i think we will see a lot more once paid apps come- coreplayer are working on an android version for one.
I just figure another issue, I create a folder with ringtones .mp3s and the player put them on the play list to This is crazy it should at least ask you if u want to add the new audio files to the play list. now I have 10sec ringtones playing on my playlist
I'll pay for a player with all the features that an audio player should have.
What folder are you putting your ringtones in?
I have my ringtones in a folder named 'ringtones', my notifications in a folder called 'notifications' and the media player doesn't pick any of them up.
One thing for sure, Shuffle blows for some odd reason. It's always the same damn order! The only way to get something different is to Shuffle -> Party Shuffle. This needs to be fixed.
Also, it would be nice if they added the fast search (like in contacts, dragging letters on the right) to the song list, as well as speed it up quite a bit.
I'm not impressed with the MP3 player. I'm hoping someone is working on one that is a little bit more iPhonish, as I like the looks/usability of that. S2P for WindowsMobile nailed it.
Is there something wrong with tunewiki? maybe that is more to your liking?
I like the double click headset to change tracks, single click to pause/resume. Although i'm not sure if this functionality would exist with A2DP? It could do with a few more features i'll admit, but it looks fine to me.

Samsung Galaxy 4.0 Android MP3 Player.
Samsung calls this an MP3 player, but it is really a great Android phone -- without the phone. The form factor is great for carrying around. I find I'm using it much more than my iPad to access email, listen to podcasts, watch videos, and more. The Gingerbread Android OS is snappy and easy to use. With Skype and Wifi, you get voice/video connectivity.

Agreed. The stock app never allows me to view my playlist like the iPod does.

Check out MKZIplayer.
Great for video and music
If you use a custom rom you can download "PlayerPro". Best MP3 Player.
(Or try "Apollo", its included in Cyanogenmod from FreeXperia)
Hello everybody!
I'm using SGS GB 2.3.6
My problem is that every time I copy new file to the microSD card, after scanning the phone, the stock player does not recognizes which file is added recently and which is not, so each time everything is messed up and I'm browsing the folders for the files that I've just added and I'm playing them using the Sound player. When I sort the files by date, everything is messed up in the Music player after the phone scan.
I was wondering how to make the Sound player in Galaxy S I9000 running as a background process just like the Music player is developed.
I have tried both free and paid players but I don't liked their designs and functionality as far as I really like the simplicity of the stock SGS player.
How do you manage to browse your recently added files through the stock Music Player in Galaxy S I9000?
I'd really appreciate your help if someone help me to fix that?

Hey,
In the stock music player, under playlists there should be one named "Recently Added"

Thank you for the answer!
Yes there is such an option, but the problem is that I couldn't sort the files by this criteria.
When I copy some music files to the card or phone memory, after the media scan, all the files are completely messed up and recently added are all of my files I have, which are added long time ago, you know, instead of 2-3 recently added files I have e.g. 200 'new' + 2-3 (really new)...

I believe its supposed to do that. The Recently Added playlist displays all your music, just sorted by the time it was added to your SD. So your new songs will obviously be at the top, and everything else will be at the bottom as you go down.
If you're talking about the songs not being sorted by time however, I'm not quite sure. I have had that happen where albums I added two years ago were suddenly near the top of the list- it might be a bug or something.

Ok, so this must have been here for a very long time, but i still can't find an answer.
So, i got KINGCOBRA BUILD 7 and i had this problem for a really long time (Before i rooted and flashed my phone).
So, i got a folder with 20 songs and every each of them have a different Artwork (Album Picture), but when i play it with the music player it just shows the picture of the First song on every song in this folder.
It's really annoying, is there anyways to fix it?
Thanks.

Edit the ID3 Tag of each song. Download an ID3 Tag editor. Make sure they have theyre different album name. Preferrably they are name accordingly to from what album it is. And using ID3 tag editor you could assign song name, artist name and album art also. If there are more questions Im very happy to help

Another way is to use from MP3dit.apk to check and change everything on mp3 files.

Hey guys, I just got my HTC One today and I'm having some weird issues with it. I was hoping someone here could help me out.
Before switching to the HTC One, I put all my music on Dropbox so I could make sure to add it once my phone was up and running.
So, I go to Dropbox and download a song, and when I try to play it, it says "Music playback error: Couldn't play the track you requested."
It does this to some my videos too.
The music files are mp3, which my Note II had no issues playing.
I would really like to get this fixed. Thanks everyone!
(Side note, if I upload all my songs to the Google Music and do the "Upload 20,000 of your own collection free" option, can I play them from my HTC One while offline? I really don't want it constantly connected and destroying my already short battery life.)
I would highly suggest Google music, you can "pin" songs, albums, artists or playlists, for offline use. Hope this helps!

hey guys, just wanna know if im the only one feeling this way
i personally think walkman feels like an unfinished music player
no folder playing, no repeat option, no sorting playlist.
the infinte view and light effects are good, and thats the thing that makes still using it.
if we use other music player, will the light effect still play?
Press on the album art to show repeat option

i'm totally agree with you :good:
thanks for all the reply.
i agree sony walkman has the best sound. the reason im not trying to use other msic player is because usually they have their own equalizer, and not all support the phone's stock sound effect.
manually sorting is way to tedious, i was thinking of having a sort button that ask how will u sort it, by artist name, by song title etc.

no, i mean in my playlist.
when i first create a playlist, i tick the songs alphabetically, but when the playlist is created, the song list was jumbled up, not like the way i added it 1st time. what i mean is, i cannot find a sort button to sort the music list in my playlist. there is only a shuffle button, and in the dropdown menu, edit playlist there is no auto sort, i'll have to manually sort it, n its kind of tedious.
thats why i hope there will be an update for walkman that can play folder so i dont need to create another playlist whatsoever.

well, dunno, maybe im too demanding
but im so used to having a folder playing option on my previous custom music player (on galaxy gio) so im a bit annoyed its not a standard on all music player
Hi people, I Am very dissapointed from Walkman for these two reasons: No folder choosing and no genre choosing for every mood that you are in a moment. Ihave Power metal folders, Rap, Drum'n'bass, Classic and when open Walkman its like one big chaos. What I'm do for that?
First make a new Playlist with name of wanted genre, after that I'm use other player with folder play option and put all folder in desired playlist. And after 5 min of work the chaos in Walkman is ignored and choose to play only that playlist with currend mood.
P. S. Sorry for my english, I am selflerner in third world country.
I'm not sure what you mean by "put all folder in desired playlist", but for me sorting genres as playlists worked. No need to copy any files anywhere. Just create a new playlist and add songs. I suggest doing it on computer using Sony's Media go software. It'll be a lot faster.
