The last month or so, every mp3 I download will not show up in any music apps I have on my phone. I used the HTC stock music app, PowerAmp, and now I'm using Google's music app, which is awesome. However, each app had the same results. I moved all my music into the same folder on my SD card. The new songs will play if I play them straight out of Root Explorer so I know the files are ok, they just won't show up in the apps. Any ideas? Thanks.

My Evo's unrooted. Google Play music was doing fine finding the music on my external SD card and playing it, but all of a sudden, last week, it can no longer find those songs. If I use a file explorer, I can still find the music. 3rd party players are able to find it (even the HTC music player), but google music can't. I've cleared data on the app, I've downloaded and used the Rescan Media app..nada.
Anyone else have this problem? or a solution?
Thanks!
Mine has trouble finding music until I restart the phone. Also, google music has its own folder on sdcard(1). Try putting the music in there and rescan media.

Hi all. Quick question:
I have google play all access, and I have stored the music locally on my device. I was wondering if there is a way to get all of my google play music files to play through the HTC Music app. Reason being, I want to install the Harmon-Kardon edition mod, but looks like the most benefit comes from using the HTC Music app. Does anyone know how I might go about sourcing all the google play files onto the HTC Music app?
Stock rooted, S-OFF, with latest OTA
Thanks!

The Harmon Kardon mod is really about enhancing compressed music, though it also supports 192khz via flac's, but you are asking about Play Music, which is compressed, even at high quality. The bottom line is that the mod works on all music apps, from Spotify, to Google Play Music exactly the same as it does for the HTC Music app. Technically, you can play the G Play music mp3's on any player, if you are rooted. You just need to move them to another folder. The down side is that the G Play app names all of the songs numerically, like 7483.mp3, so in the end, you are better off just using whatever music app you normally use.
another thing you can do is go into your default.xml file and edit the line pertaining to music channel (turning it on the rebooting, making sure the change has been saved). This allows me to play my playlists off Google music with the HTC player features, giving me access to the visualizer, lyrics (when applicable) etc, and the HK mod icons are active
Soon as I start a song, I get a notification that Music Channel is available, I click the notification and there it is
I have a problem with Google Play Music. I love everything about the app. I'm not a subscriber to Google Play Music, but I love using it for the music I have on my SD card. However, unlike my stock Samsung music app, I can't seem to delete music from the app. Like when I use the stock Samsung music app and delete music, it gets deleted from my SD card as well. But, when I delete music from Google Play Music, it doesn't delete from my SD card and the music stays on the google play music. Any help?

Just delete it from your SD card.

I've downloaded music from googly play music to my external sd card. When using file explorer or another music app I can't locate any of my music I've bought.
Is it possible to find the music mp3's somehow?
Anyone help please?
If you're talking about all access music, it is only playable with Google app. Btw, you have to look in hidden android folder, in google play music. Can't remember exact path, but it's there.
If you're talking about your purchased music, might be much better to sync/download your music to your pc, then transfer on SD card. That way filenames will be preserved, rather than numbered, as is the case with play music app downloads.

Hi!
I can play FLAC files from within a file manager (EZ File Manager and Root Explorer). I get asked to use "Music" or "Google Play Music". Both work, but only a small music player opens!
But I can't get the FLAC files in the stock music player (in the list of music). Any ideas?
The FLAC songs are on external SD, but so are a lot of other songs.
Regards, Hode

You should probably download some other music player from Google Play.
Any recommandation?
I must say that stock music player is very good. Also tried google music with no luck
