Tested on my streak and it works fine in portrait. Soon as you go to landscape it crashes.
Looks like there is some support for a cloud based streaming system. Check it out.
installed fine without backing up the original music app.

It doesnt force close in landscape for me. Using dj steve 1.5.1. It does look pretty sweet compared to the original music player.

Did anybody else notice a bug in SE Music app on newest Gingerbread Rom? For me, when playing music, tracks are often interrupted by a strange electronic noise.
BTW I'm using "WB-XPERIA TW Gingerbread". Did anybody has similar problems
and does this bug also appears in stock gingerbread rom or is it due to using a custom rom? I would be thankful for any answers.
Best regards.
me too
i have this problem too in WB 2.3.3 ROM
a lot of lags in audio player
I'm on wb hotfix 4 and ubermusic, and have no problems at all

i think the music player is really buggy... apart from the static noises between tracks, after unlocking from lock screen the track skips. Theres no shuffle/ repeat options at all, and wma files doesnt show up.
I was about to post the same thing. Other than her has anybody found a mp3 that does not skip.

This is Sony Ericsson Music App right? Not Stock Android Music player.
Stupid "Like" button for Facebook.
Only good thing is "infinite" button, which shows youtube videos of artist... but havent found out when i should use it..... because if i'm listening and interpret i most time know which songs he has....
Some1 know how to uninstall this music ab and how to install... was is music 3 from stock android ?
Well true and there is lag in music playing when using applications. Feels like slow processor or what.

Yeah, I`ve same problem, when using that stock music player(which has that widget). It`s really annoying, like stopping music playing for 0,5 sec and then continuing, that really sux :/ I hope there`ll be some fix for it...
Using this one here.

Best combination I have found so far! Also on hotfix 4 and ubermusic gives me the least amount of trouble for playing music. Still skips when turning screen on but it is much more tolerable overall!
Yes guys, seems to be an issue with 2.3.3. Wolf is working on a new ROM (as the rooted ones are based on an indian firmware of X10 - but apparently the ROM from GB doesn't have this issue).
Please check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16278495&postcount=1904
Is not related to SD Card, nor to hardware (as it worked ok with 2.1 no stuttering ever) as far as I can tell.
Since Monday I'm on 005 but still the same probs with the stock player. Now 2 days later, I've considerably fewer drops. Didnt install any add apk's. very strange ?!?
by the way ;did anyone test mp3 with different bit rates ?
I've tested 128 kbps (same issues) and vbr 192-320 kbps (same issues).
I connected to my car's hands free and still had the same issues.
I connected to an A2DP music gateway and it didn't hiccup when rotating but messed up when turning the screen back on/off.
Someone said that the UK GB version doesn't have this problem. Wolf also mentions this (I think he's going to use the pre-rooted UK version for 006). Right now Wolf's rom is based on the pre-rooted India version.
Is anyone running EWJet? That one is based on the UK version and it would be interesting to know if that one is having audio issues.
I also have similar issue its too much lagy.
And also when i open some mp3 file from file manager it plays the other.
there are too many problems with this default music player from sony.
And also i can't use next/previous button of my mw600 with this player.
Mediascape was much much better then this.
Please i want mediascpe back on 2.3.3. Help me out.
I'm now on 006 , and the problems are back . I dont believe that it is an 2.3.3 specific problem. As I wrote before , on the old version the noises were gone after 2 days.
When we got 2.1 there was a guy who made an apk that could let you have the generic music app available aswell as the 3d gallery
is this available for 2.3.3
If I'm right the standard music player for Android is the one you get with the ROM only it is modified by SE. Maybe you can grab the music player from an AOSP Gingerbread ROM.
But now you're asking this, Titanium Backup shows there is a soundrecorder present on the phone. Only you can't see it in your app drawer, is there some kind of way to make it visible there?
No
the default music app is in there aswell. some guy made an apk that made it un hidden

Cheers Pilot, was looking for the same thing.
Well, a kind of a survey, anyway. I'd like to know what are your favourite apps in any category! I'll collect the stuff you write and put it in the 1st post, to make it easy for new users (like me) to find out what the greatest apps are! Please, when you mention an app, do mention the reasons you like it, too, and maybe even a link to it (keep it legal)!
Okay, so, I'll suggest some categories to begin with.
What is the audio/music player of your choice? The stock one can't be the best one, it doesn't even have an equalizer.
What is the video player of your choice? I've noticed that the stock one is quite lousy, as it barely plays the videos recorded on phone without lag. I'd like to watch TV shows on my MB526 (since I commute every day, so I hate wasting 45mins on the bus doing nothing) and I'd like that to be a joyful activity.
What is the navigation app of your choice? NDrive? iGo? Standard Google Maps? Which one has the best maps for your area and which one gives your location most precisely?
What is the most interesting app you've come across? Candle? Lighter? There's gotta be something more interesting than this?
What is the app you use most frequently on your defy(+)?
Can you think of any more categories? And apps that fall into them? Post, post, post!
*When I say stock I mean my MotoBlur Android 2.3.4. system (I am intending to load something else soon...)*

Well I do use the stock one (blurmusic from atrix) and I don't feel the need of using another one. I has nice interface, acceptable widget and lockscreen controls.. It has some equalizer (media audio effects), and it can be used with some 3d party equalizer app like "Equalizer" app
Using the stock one or MoboPlayer. Didn't notice any problem with MoboPlayer so don't need to search for another one, but I heard that the Mobo Video Player is a good one.
I don't use much navigation, but when I need some guide I use google, but it's navigation is a little bit buggy when it comes to calculate the route.
Hmm, don't know, when I first hear about Widgetlocker it was wery interesting for long time, same was with MiLocker..transparent screen is interesting app..no use to me but it's interesting, it's cool
Hmm.. Zumocast, Viber, Music Player, TuneIn radio, Tapatalk...there are much more..oh yes zedge

On my firmware, stock music player = CMP (Connected Music Player). It's not really bad, but it can be a lot better. Which ROM does have the BlurMusic player from Atrix?
Thanks for the reply, neighbor
Cheers!
I use PlayerPro for music, BSplayer for video, sygic for navigation (also precache on brut maps - even better)
Most interesting app is GTA3 ofc.
I most use : Timetable, BW, Golauncher, Palmary Weather Pro, Dolphin HD and Root Explorer.

How playable is GTA3 now? I kinda don't want to play it without music (radio), cause that's what's the GTA series was all about for me... Driving around and listening to the radio stations My favourite is Vice City, it had the best stations! Enough of the off topic now
Can you tell me why do you prefer Dolphin HD over other browsers? I am gonna test it anyway, but wanted to know your opinion.
Sygic does look nice... Can you tell me more about Brut Maps, too? I've never heard of that before, but I see that it's some kind of a mod of Google Maps?
Best video players :
1st is Vital player, 2nd mvideo player
Best music player :
Google music player is awesome..
Best launcher :
Go launcher (go sms, go contacts), and ofcourse SPB may be the best.
Best weather widget :
Beweather pro
Best dictionary :

I didn't like the CMP either, the MS2Ginger rom has the Atrix player, it has it somewhere attached.

Brut maps is mod for Google Maps that enables navigation in rest of the world (it was just for USA until brut came out)
Gta3 is playable only if you use Gta settings launcher and low everything. (also on xda like brut maps)
Vice city map could probably be available for gta 3 cause gta 3 for android is the same version as PC version.
I prefer Dolphin and Opera cause they have some addons to turn on flash content if you're on 3g...also they have many excellent addons.
All of that is available on this forum
music player: TTpod
Video player: Mx Video Player
Navigation: just Google Maps
most interesting app: I just love Dropbox
TTpod seems interesting, I've checked it out on the market! Will test it one of the next days..!
Okay, I've done some testing already and would like to share my opinion. It's about launchers.
SPB Shell 3D - I don't like it. It's quite boring and not practical. It's slower than others, too. Yeah, the 3D switching of home screens is very nice but there's nothing more to this launcher.
GoLauncher EX - This one's great! I love how everything can be configured and set up the way one prefers! A lot of effects makes it VERY interesting. What I really hate about is that it comes with 3 or 4 more apps! I HATE that! I don't want GO Shop or any GO Widget... Is there a clean install of this launcher awailable?
ADW Launcher EX - I think it's the fastest one, or at least it seems so on my stock 2.3.4 (defy+)! It's simple and effective, that's why I like. The problem is I couldnt find settings/options!! Can this one be configured at all?

I did so, but the thought that they are there and that they are occupying my phone's resources for no good reason bothers me a lot! That's why I deleted GoLauncher and am now back to stock (BlurHome?) Will test more of them, though!

Hello,
Please help me to find the music player I'm looking for. My requirements:
- A clean playlist (no artists, no genres, no album arts, no ratings, no lyrics, JUST FILENAME)
- An equalizer
- To be controlled by the handsfree button (play/pause and next track by double-click. More clicks - highly appreciated)
The closest to this idea of mine, which I was able to find, is tiny player. I liked it a LOT, but it doesn't have any equalizer...
And I have tried so many other players and they are TERRIBLE, especially starting with winamp, which I like so much for
PC!!! The Android's version is absolutely not acceptable for me!

Hello and thanks for your answers. But all of them are connected to Cyanogenmod.
I would like to install it, I even checked their page. BUT I'm afraid that I could screw
up my phone and/or lose my warranty.
Please recommend a normal installable app.

Hello and thank you!
I gave it a try today and it doesn't work at all :-/ It didn't show me even a single folder !!!
I see the message select a folder or whatever on the top and everything below is black!!
I'm gonna send an e-mail to the developers to report this bug.
Trying to download this, I found another player - EZ folder player free. It works very
nicely with my headset button, but it doesn't show the playlist and doesn't have an
equalizer...
Actually it makes me VERY SAD and VERY DESPERATE - WHY all the music players
need to have a huge icon showing NOTHING in the center and wasting the whole screen ?!?!?!?!
WHY there can't be a program, showing the playlist, as Winamp on a PC and 3 buttons
for play/pause, next and previous song? IS IT SO COMPLICATED ?!?!? And an
equalizer, of course!! Come on, guys, this is Winamp from 1993 !!! And in 2012, this
doesn't exist anymore !!!
My device is Samsung Galaxy S2 with ICS (4.0.3).
OK, regarding Music Folder Player - I can not see folders only with the paid version of this app.
I have also tried to install the free version and it works. I have also installed Music Volume EQ:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hr.podlanica&feature=search_result
This is a MUST have app!! It has an extremely nice bass boost function and now listening to
music is a really nice experience on my SGS2.
So, back to Music Folder Player - this is the player, which I will be using for now. It is by far
not perfect, but it seems to be quite working. Major disadvantages:
- it plays folders only at one level - if you have a folder that contains mp3 files and subfolders
with more mp3 files, it will play only the lower level folder. If you select some of the subfolders,
it will play only the subfolders, but never the parent folder. REALLY annoying, but not fatal
- It writes media information files to EVERY directory with music
- The equalizer does not change almost anything and it is practically useless. But this can be
solved via Music Volume EQ, so it is a really minor problem.
But it is a very customizable player and I like it a lot! Nevertheless, I am more and more
convinced, that the perfect mp3 player for Android does not exist yet
Although, there a some players in the style I like - Music folder player, EZ music folder
player, tiny player, etc... There must be also more of them. Please suggest some...
Come on, guys!! No other cool apps? I can't believe it...
I am using kamma's folder player. It supports rom's native equalizer app. UI can improve a little but pretty much suffices what I need.

hi,
Try this one i am sure you would not search for anything else.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.omichsoft.player
It supports Playlists,folders, genres, artists, albums and songs list.
Supports device internal equalizer.
shows itself on the Lockscreen.
and all this for an installation size of around 350 kb.
difficult to justify some (most) paid music players against this one.
