The stock player, Doubletwist and Winamp are all useless since there is no option to select which folder your music is in. Nothing shows up and you're stuck with that.
Poweramp is fantastic but it's not free.
Disappointed it's this difficult to find a decent music player.
PlayerPro is pretty good imo and has folder view and options. I bought it after using the 7 day trial version.

Just downloaded it and it's as bad as the first three I mentioned. Nothing shows up and there aren't any options. "Resume music" and "customer improvement mode" are the only two options in the settings.

You have never purchased a PC or Mac with preinstalled OS?
PowerAmp is still the best player I have found, well worth the very nominal fee. I took the stance at first on android that I also would not pay if there was a free alternative available, however after weighing the nominal price of the software on android and the benefits of some of the paid apps over their free alternatives I changed that. There is just no replacing some of the top quality paid apps which poweramp is one of.
Power Amp is IMO the best player in android.
If you want the get the best, Power Amp is the best choice.

Yup, guess I should say I've never directly paid for any software.
You're right, so far Poweramp is by FAR the best player around, actually, it's really the only player I found that can even play music.
I've been using MixZing on my phones for over the past 1.5 yrs.
it's the one I've enjoyed using the most.

What, you don't think developers deserve to be paid for great software?
PowerAmp is streets ahead of all other music players available. 100% worth the money. It supports basically all media types, looks great and I simply cannot go to a player that does not have the equalizer settings that PowerAmp has.

I've said "Thanks" in numerous threads!
I know it hasn't been updated in a while, but I'm a really big fan of UberMusic. It's a ZuneHD/WP7 clone and is an all around fantastic music player.
The quality of Android music players' UI is atrocious. It's like every developer downloaded Winamp in 1999 and has never used anything since.
power amp is beyond worth the five bucks it costs. Its not gonna break the bank to get it.
The streets ahead reference was so streets ahead!
I really love the look and feel of the stock google music player that is built in, very nice. But there are 0 options... That kinda sucks.
I'd love to see something like ICS music player +. With just additional options.

Anyway to get something like this Beats control panel like on HP Beats laptops like mine here. Really Beats on my laptop sound way more amazing then Beats on our Rezound.
Agreed, that would be nice.
My Son's LT has that panel also.
Honestly, I can't stand to use the stock Music player due to being stuck with either the Beats or HTC "enhancement" both of which only ever sounds like a bit of reverb and bass boost added, by different degrees. On decent high-end 'phones it just sounds like garbage. I'd feel suckered by the hype if I didn't already expect it to be empty hype.
The Rezound, on the other hand, is awesome.
I couldn't actually care less about beats, I bought the phone because I liked it. I have never really used the integrated beats software, I always use PowerAmp which is so much more advanced than most other music players.

I like beats because in my car, until I finally upgrade my system, I get better sound through beats because it keeps the bass without the speakers giving out. Using my iPod I cannot listen to many songs as the speakers start to give out.

I agree, I didn't buy this phone at first because of the Beats gimmicks but once I saw the specs and the news of ics coming to it plus BJ's Wholesale had them on sale for $99, I had to get two.
I used the iBeats earphones once and they absolutely sucked ass compared to my SkullCandy 50/50. Only thing is my 50/50's aren't Android compatible so out of its three headset buttons, only the middle play/pause works.

If you install the app "headset button controller" you can regain all the functions of the 3 buttons.
The app works perfectly, I have about 30 different sets of earbuds/headphones & 99% of them are only "iphone compatible" so I use this app every single day.
I originally installed it to use with my Beats Studios & my Bose QC15's but I quickly realized it works with ANY headphone set.

This is definitely a matter of preference but I tried both Player Pro and Poweramp and I have found the sound is EXACTLY the same on both players. They both utilize the same 10 band EQ. Poweramp even gives you the option to turn on Beats, which I find to be unnecessary. In the end, the only difference is the UI - I had already purchased Poweramp so there was no need for Player Pro, but the sound, I found, was exactly the same after tweaking. I'm sticking with Poweramp

I am trying to solve the low storage problem.
I have try G music on my GS3, its way too slow to transition from 1 song to another.
It also uses way too much data, i would hit 5gb before the week end. sadly i dont have unlimited data.
Any other cloud storage that is fast(like stock player) and uses less data at 320kbps?
Or i should just get the note 2? I love everything about the note 2 better then Droid dna
But i like the Droid dna build quality.
I think Subsonic does something like you're asking for... it's streaming media like GMusic but it lets you configure the stream a lot more. I think this'll be what I use once my DNA arrives.
To quote their site: "If you have constrained bandwidth, you may set an upper limit for the bitrate of the music streams. Subsonic will then automatically resample the music to a suitable bitrate."

so that i dont sound like a shill, since apparently a handful of the folks here think that just because we got the phone early thats what we are...
i would say go with what you like best. i love my dna and after getting my hands on a note 2 for a bit i would choose the dna easily. but if you love everything about the note 2 except the build quality it should come down to how much weight buld quality has against everything else.
huh. I have no gaps between song playback, and I never use more than a 2GB or so using Google Music all the time. You could always save a playlist or two to the phone for the day while on WiFi and keep rotating what's stored on the phone. Admittedly, not the best solution...

I don't think you need an actual dedicated server for Subsonic. Pretty sure it's just a program that runs on your desktop. I use a similar thing called Tversity, but for sharing movies around the house.

if you want to use less data than stream lower quality music, a 320kbps will use up a ton of data while streaming at 128kbps will use less than half as much. personally i got spotify premium free 2 day thing right before going on a long bus ride and i watched my data plan being used up at a rate of 100MB/hour of streaming at the highest quality they have (320kbps) quite entertaining considering my data plan atm is too large for me

I think Subsonic will be the perfect fir for you...
I realize this might not be helpful, but I've found Spotify to be absolutely perfect in this regard. You can choose playlists to store offline (and as songs are added, it downloads those songs via wi-fi, or wi-fi/mobile depending on settings you choose), and you can choose different quality for offline vs. streaming (so I have 'normal' quality for streaming, and 'extreme' quality, which is 320kbps afaik, for offline use). So I keep my starred/favorites playlist stored for offline use, everything else streaming. No lag, no trouble, works absolutely perfectly on the DNA and doesn't require much space because I only store offline the songs I am currently listening to most. When I get sick of them, I unstar them and star others. So I rarely stream any music.
That is, if Spotify has the songs you like, and you are willing to pay the $9/month for it.
I use cloud-based services (Google, Amazon, etc.) However, I absolutely love Audiogalaxy. It's free and available on the Market. Once installed, you tell it what folders to point to, and voila, you have a music streaming service from your home.

Not great on quality, but you can certainly stream from the Nexus Q to a bluetooth receiver and into an AUX port on your stereo system. Otherwise going via HDMI into a receiver allows you to get the full surround effect.
I've collected a few Q's and I'm trying to find ways to still use the stock amp via a bluetooth stream TO the Nexus Q (CM9 Nexus Quantum Singularity?) or disabling the Nexus Q app forced NFC push and enabling stock Android Beam to push songs to the Q. This works great on CM10.1 RC5 for Youtube.
Spare Nexus Q?
If anyone has forgotten about their Q and wants to forget about it on a more permanent basis, let me know as I may just be interested in helping you out with that one
They were never on sale here in the UK and I really want one for a project and for generally geeking around but have yet to be able to get hold of one for a half reasonable price.

Does anyone know of a solution for playing music on a headunit with the Galaxy S4.
I don't want to stream it via Bluetooth, I want a USB only solution for the best audio quality. I haven't been able to find anything as of yet, unfortunately.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Nevermind, I just found out that Pioneer supports MTP over USB with their new 2014 line up. If you're interested you can find it here: pioneerelectronics.(com)/PUSA/Car/CD-Receivers.

With the Pioneer units you can use both. Pandora is the one that they specifically support in their older App Radio/App Mode units. As you might expect, their support for iPhones is much stronger.

I'm actually installing a Nexus 7 in the stock navigation location (I have a base model without the navigation but the option bezel is there). I'm going to fabricate my own mounts and install the Nexus 7 overhead for navigation and OBD II monitoring.
I want the single-din radio to handle all of my music. I have an iPhone for music that I kept after I bought my Galaxy S4. The audio quality between iPhone USB and auxiliary is night and day and I don't want to sacrifice audio quality.
Just curious what XDA users prefer.
I've had GPM premium since day of its launch. Love the way it integrates with Google OS.
However, am now just starting to use Spotify premium as well... Seems like the radio and discovery features are way better than Google. Just curious what other Android users are using and why.
The Google app and widget is way better than Spotify, although I'm starting to Digg the music on Spotify more. What do you guys think?
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk 2
I cannot compare their premium services because I never used GPM premium, only in the last few months started using Spotify Premium because it is cheaper in a family plan that we have. However I did use GPM as my music player before for years and I will chip in with my 2 cents by saying that Play Music's app is FAR SUPERIOR. Spotify is just frustrating to use, it looks and functions so outdated. Whoever designed the app is stuck in 2011 with no slidable windows/drawers/menus. And it just takes too long to get somewhere, e.g. full albums list and whatnot. Everything is much more neatly organized in GPM imo and clearly has better UX for me.
Yeah there is no question the Google app is better. For that reason, I think I'm going to use it over Spotify even though the actual music experience might be better on Spotify.
Also, I tend to feel like I'm getting better battery life with the GPM app over Spotify, although curious to hear your reports

Personally I prefer Spotify much more than GPM. An added bonus is that it's cheaper for me, they frequently have deals cutting the price and I only pay half price anyways because I'm a college student.
I've never done comparisons of the battery life, so I can't say anything about that.
Don't get me wrong they are both great, but Spotify takes my pick.
EDIT: I'm talking about the premium versions. I've never used the free version of GPM, so that wouldn't be fair if I tried to give my thoughts on the free spotify.
Personally I prefer Spotify over GPM for non premium use. For premium use I can't really say because I only used Spotify. I can say that the Spotify Linux support is a lot better in my opinion and for a guy like me that has 3 or 4 different distros installed at each time is perfect.

I've used GPM premium for a while waiting for youtube red, but it hasn't come to my country yet.
A friend of mine started using Spotify premium and invited me to 'be part' of his family; it was cheaper since he was dividing the family plan with other 4 so I changed to Spotify.
My experience is similar than that of other users; Spotify lacks functionality. GPM is far better in this aspect, seriouly; sometimes it's irritating how dumb the Spotify app can be. IMO Spotify have slightly better Playlists, and it has the convenience of controlling music playing on your pc from your phone (I don't know if GPM has it, maybe it does). Other thing is that everybody uses Spotify, sometimes it has its conveniences (like sharing playlists).
Anyway, sometimes I think in returning to use GPM. Maybe the best is for you to use both and decide for yourself.
