I was wondering if anyone knows how to restore the ability to play an MMS message with an audio file attached to it with the extension of .qcp....
I know I can do a hard reset, but I'd rather not do that.... I have uninstalled and re-installed GC's MMS cab, uninstalled all youtube players and reinstalled. Uninstalled anything I thought might have conflicted with any audio setting.... nothing has worked so far.....
Thanks

OK - It seems that I cannot play .qcp files on DCD3.3.4 (nothing installed but the rom, not even the carrier cab), but it does play on DCD 3.2.6 in the same condition( nothing installed).....
DCD, any ideas what is causing this issue???
There are two main ways to successfully play QCP files: one way is to find a QCP player like PureVoice Player from Qualcomm; another way is to convert QCP to more popular audio format like MP3, WAV, WMA, AC3, M4A and etc.
Detailed info at How to Play QCP files on Windows Media Player, Mac, iTunes, iPod?

I've got PK3 Dual installed - and have had since it came out - but recently I've been having issues with notifications and ringtones. I have no problems with those notifications set as WAVs, but if I try a WMA sound I get nothing. The same with ringtones, MP3 seems OK now, but WMA doesn't work. Some won't play at all, selecting others results in a message box that the file is corrupted - but it isn't. It plays fine in Windows Media.
At one point I thought it was down to file associations with other players. At that point I was having issues with both MP3 and WMA sounds, and no other software was associated, although they had been. I renebaled MP3 and WMA in CorePlayer, quit, ran again and disabled them then soft reset and MP3 sounds started working, but not WMA. Then I went to TCPMP and did the same for WMA only. At first, that worked - suddenly WMAs worked again so I set a WMA sound as my main reminder. Then I went into phone options and tried to set a WMA ringtone, but it wouldn't and now the WMA reminders don't work anymore either. I didn't run TCPMP in the meantime, but did try Windows Media to test a couple of the WMA files that wouldn't work as ringtones.
I'm stumped - I've even looked through the registry and not seen anything amiss other than WMAs have an EventHandler subfolder in HKCU and WAVs don't.
What's most annoying is that I got it working and then literally two minutes later it didn't.
Anyone able to shed some light on this? If not, I'll have to try a hard reset. Either that or change all my sounds to WAVs and MP3s.
What audio formats does the Streak play?
I never had so much trouble looking up the answer to such a simple question.
So experimentation shows that it doesn't play lossless wma files.
Is there a lossless format that will play on it?
get PowerAMP it plays plenty of file types:
mp3, mp4/m4a (including alac), ogg, wma*, flac, wav, ape, wv, tta (* some wma pro files may require NEON support)
I love it, it's automated, so when I plug in my headphones (even BT ones) it resumes play.
the basic player is just that, basic.
I'd link it, but I'm new, look it up on appbrain.

Good question. I can only speak for FLAC support as I don't use anything else.
The only Android media player that I know of that recognises FLAC is PowerAMP

I second @bugmenotacc's endorsement.
I tried PowerAmp and it didn't play the album I ripped to flac.
I read the help section this morning (amazing what you can learn when you do that) and found out about selecting folders instead of the android library and lo and behold flac files play. Looks like I'll probably end up buying PowerAmp.
Yes it gets a bit confusing, glad you got it sorted too.
I loaded about 6 albums to my sd card today and set Android Settings to pull in the album artwork. Which all happened very quickly and seamlesly.
It is probably old fashioned of me but I prefer to set a Music folder rather than always have the app search my device for files.
Enjoy the app.
So I haven't had any luck getting WMA lossless files to play on the 4.0. The vendor descriptions all state WMA support but the manual doesn't mention WMA. When I try to play any of my WMA files I get a "Sorry, the player does not support this type of audio file" message. I've tried with the file on both the internal memory and on the SD card with no luck.
Has anyone else run into this? Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

Either use another media player app or convert your WMA files to a type that is more widely supported. Personally, unless you own a Zune, there should be no reason to keep your audio in WMA, especially since the Galaxy player handles FLAC all day long without issue. Not to mention that if the SGP is capable of playing WMA, your files are most likely DRM'd, which would be throwing that error.
yeah i would recommend converting your music to mp3. wma has very limited suport and why waste space on your device just for an app that will play a few files?
just google "wma to mp3 converter", there are many free programs that will easily convert your files.
I'm on GN - 4.0.2. I've got audio books in .aac files.
I know aac is an accepted format on 4.0+, but I can't find a player that will play them. They require .m4a.
So two questions:
1. is there a audiobook player for .aac files?
2. is there a better site/forum for audio book issues? mobileread seems only to deal with ebooks.

Have you tried Audiobook Player 2 (by Fredrik Maelstrom) in the market? I just tried it now and it seems to play my .m4a files just fine.

Yes, it plays m4a - but I'm looking for a ".aac" player.
I couldn't get it to play aac files. Can you?
For some reason, no music player (stock, winamp, doubletwist etc.) seems to be able to play either aac or m4a files despite the S3 ostensibly supporting them.
Any thoughts? I've spotted some ICS related bugs elsewhere, but nothing that would seem to fix my problems.
