Can some one kindly explain tome how to get my music file
associations back to standard please.
After downloading Coreplayer I noticed all my music files
had converted to Coreplayer association with the corresponding
CP icons in my file explorer,I would like to change this back.
Cheers for any help you can offer....
Open up core player, hit the menu or options button and you can get to tools then pages and you can find file associations just uncheck mp3, not the best description because i dont use it any more sorry, but its something like that

Cheers bud,I've done that,unchecked a few things and it seems the
WMA files I've got have reverted back OK to
Windows Media Player and have the right icon,but all my MP3's have the
Windows icon you usually get with programs and aren't selectable to play
from File explorer,if I select a track it just drops back to the home screen.
Music tracks are still selectable from HTC Player....
I'm at a brick wall at the moment,don't know what to try next ?
have you tried a soft reset?? and all so tried opening a track through windows media player that way it might pick them up
Yep tried that and updating my WM library,everything plays OK
but I still have this strange icon issue in File Explorer and
of course I can't select them to play from within there...
Seems like I will have to delete all the music and re-load them again,
all my ringtones and notification tones have stopped working.
Strange that they will all still play in hTC music player,but
are not selectable via File Explorer.
I would have liked a definitive answer to how to cure this,but
hey ho something to do on a rainy Sunday removing all my music files.
I ditched Coreplayer,not only did it cause this issue by associating all my
MP3's to itself,I found it quite irritating to use.
Well...deleted everything and uploaded all music files from my laptop again,
still no joy,I really need some more advice...
All my music files are still showing as Windows files with no music association...
please someone help !!
I can't get any of my music files to select as a ringtone,I missed several calls,texts and emails...
for the ringtone try dropping it into device-app data-sounds, i have no music on my phone, but i put ringtones there cause ms instructed me to do so, only problem is ringtone showed up in player and is ur music in ms format - wma i believe - i do not use i got 1.5 gb songs ipod format hope it helps
i decided to try and answer here instead of hd2 place
I have replied to your issue in another forum. Try using Resco File Explorer or Total Commander to set the file association back to wmplayer.exe.
Thanx Web,
but the issue isnt where the files are stored,they do already show up in my
selection of available ringtones and notification sounds (I had already been using them,so they are correctly placed in the phones folders.
The problem is if I click on one to hear it before deciding to select it for
shall we say my main ringtone nothing happens due to it
not having the correct file type....
I have selected 'Opens with' as WMP and they will open up from File Explorer
and play perfectly OK
and also in HTC player,but the file type is showing as 'unknown type'
instead of the generic HTC music icon it should have....
Hope that makes it clearer ?
OK I tried your suggestion Web and ringtones work now... thank fook for that cheers...
although they appear as more than one copy of each in the
selection folder now,this isnt a problem as I know to select the top
version of each to my alotted ring tones and can just delete the
other copies from where I have them stored.
So everything plays as it should now,it's just the icons that
are wrong.
thanks markt77 - appreciate the input - i try - and i am learning good knowledge from u and the other folks over there - boy it is sometimes really hard to get a response at xda when u request answers
but
it's the most innovative forum on the planet
anyone suggest a music player that works in a "flat file" fashion? i.e. gives an interface similar to a file manager that exposes at the folder level and lets me select any/all of my files without categorizing or "genius"-izing my stuff [which always fails in my case] ??
I've tried:
poweramp
winamp [been awhile - liked it on pcs, not on android]
TTPod [current - misses 70% of my files]
Mixzing
Cloudskipper [worthless]
a couple I can't recall
and the default
?
Music Folder Player Free
"Music Folder Player Free" by ZorillaSoft
"MortPlayer Music" by Mirko Schenk
wouldn't you know it... five minutes after posting I decided I'd try one of the ones I had not tried, and it works. Playerpro Trial has a folder feature and it just works. the album view genre view and others are predictably worthless, but at least it lets me find what I know is there, and all the files are shown intact, and to its credit it ignores empty folders. I'll take a look a Mort again - tried it before but can't recall the detail. and I'll definitely try folder player - sounds like someone gave 'em a tip.
Now I need a different thread - which one's the best of those that properly discover files? My second highest priority is the quality of the sound, and the one reason why I was quite fond of TTPod [while it was still free, of course] was its robust EQ. But on a P500/P509 such as i have, does it matter? the audio component is pretty lousy... Poweramp and Powerplay [the one I just installed] have DSP's they download for the 'unlocked' version. does it really help?
I am running backside on my OV. Since it's not the same phone I can't guarantee that you would see the same results, but just the dsp manager built into cm7 has made a very noticeable sound quality difference in my phone, so anything with a decent dsp should help. I'm still looking for a good free music player like what you're describing. I've settled for mixzing, but not a huge fan. Apparently the paid version of winamp offers folder based playing as well as gapless playback. I'm a big fan of electronica, so this has made winamp a major consideration as my next app purchase. Check it out if you haven't yet, might fit what you're looking for. Good luck.

Recently i changed my ROM and since then all music apps, including stock, says i only have a few songs on whereas Astro File manager shows i have all my albums and i can only listen to them through there, not a normal music app. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks ;D
What Rom you on?if miui go to music folder in settings but if still you have nothing You can try this app available on Google play
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=media+scanner+
Im on FeraVolt v16 but the problem occurred when I tried v13 I think
il download the app and see what is says
Thanks
Anyone be able to shed some light on how I can get my music back?
What media players have you tried?
Even have you checked permissins to the music folders if there are readable and writable for all?
Iv tried stock music player, DoubleTwist, Meridian, AMP? maybe some others? and none of them could 'see' most of the songs. I know they are on the card in the music folder, would i maybe need to move them to a new one? The music apps can see 7 songs, but i have alot more on my card :/
Try MortPlayer - It is folder based (I love it, because play randomly by files,to albums etc...). Run it and select you music folder to scan it and see it it will be seen.
Il try that once my phone has charged fully, i ordered a new one after mine started to fail :/ should i delete battery stats after the charge to 100% do you think?
I think that it is not necessary if you wont observe some kind of strange reportings of battery level.
Thanks for the recommendation, MortPlayer seems to be working well. Just trying to gte the correct ablum arts now
You should be fine by rebooting the phone, if not then try wiping cache data and dalvik

Use TCM musicTag Editor - simple and usable
Mortplayer uses the covers inside the music files or in their directory for eg. album art. Similar like dekstop players.
But still cant understand why other players cant recognize other music, as mentioned before, try reboot and even the wipe data of "Media provider".
On my Atrix, whenever I use jokersax CM9 or AOKP, every time my phone reboots, my music duplicates. I use my phone alot for music and have over 600 songs on it, so this is becoming a problem. Is it just me having this problem, or are there others too. Does anyone know a fix?
Me too... i only have around 90 songs in my phone and now in my music player its 300+++ songs!
The thing is the songs are not physically there, when u try to play it it wont play and player skips it!
How do we fix this issue?
I don´t really know what to do with the stock player to fix that. If you´re using Poweramp, which i highly recommend, this happens because at default settings it scans folder in more than one mount point and being so, it ends up with duplicated information. To fix, it´s just a matter of going into settings and select which folders are to be scanned.
Hope that helps...
Try pulling stock MIUI music player from my latest build and use that. If the Music apk is borking, this may work well. It's a pretty nice player, too
Try using stock player from a blur rom, i dont have that issue.
Recently I switch from useing a Samsung galaxy player 4.0 as a pmp to a Droid x2, and was suprised to find that my favorite feature of my favorite music player was not working. In Doubletwist when you use the headset to play/pause skip forward/back and shufle an indicator beep of different tone plays to let you know it got the message. With the X2 thought only the shuffle tone seemed to work. I tracked it down to the fact that the mp3 files that are actually played by the app are to short (under 10 milliseconds) or to small (around 1Kb) to register. Found this out by extracting the doubletwist apk and trying to play the mp3 directly, the shuffle tone being longest played fine (20milisecond 2.4Kb). Any one have an suggestions on how to fix this? I have tried extracting then replacing the files with ones that will play, and rebuilding, but the final result crashes on startup.
FIXED IT
Alright I fixed the issue. After some experimintation, with APKmultiTool, I found that if I extracted the apk then make the modifications, and then zipped the apk again, at the highest comppression (9), then signed it, it would install but crash on launch. It still did not seem to want to work at compression between 0 and 9. I tried at 8 7 and 2 and those did not work. I lowerd the compression to 0 and zipped and signed again then the install worked.
Now the player can play the audio files and have them register as sound.
