Hello folks,
I've been searching for a faster music player for my Wildfire android phone. Because the default with the sense skin is ****. It loads and scrolls very slow. But I didn't found anything usefull.
Someone knows a minimalistic/fast music player, just only the basic stuff, no equlaizer, visual things ect.
Thanks,
i used winamp for a period of time... it's free on the market
I'm using Music PlayerPro and very hapy with it.
It looks nice and smooth, has got a nice Widget and Lockscreen
-nevermind-
Music PlayerPro FTW.
i'm using Music PlayerPro too.. n work well
Tiny player
Search for "Tinyplayer" on market its free n just 60 k app it dsnt hv much of Eye catching features but is lightest
I use Miui Music (QVGA)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929727
just have a look at
ttpod
real player
winamp
double twist player.... and choose the best that suits u.
consider lyrics and subtitles support if u need.
so many other players in the market, if u r free to search.
and im not sure whether the above miui music player works with unrooted phones also.
Player pro is nice, especially with the pure white skin.
I use Rockit
I use tinyplayer.

I see the topic has risen after 2 months, but for the sake of it - try Vanilla Music Player. It's really lightweight, has a cool widget and seems to drain less battery than any other player.
I use Poweramp which is the best player out there!
For me, it's Rockbox
It's not the prettiest by default and it definetely takes some getting used to, but it's by far the most functional player available.
I've been using it on my Cowon D2 and I'm glad they made a port for android
Rockbox supports pretty much ANY format there is (hell, it even plays NES-roms and tracker formats), supports ReplayGain and gapless playback, has a proper shuffle mode and countless options to tweak the sound to your liking (Crossfeed )
There are 2 prebuilt apks for our screen size here. The upper one is portrait. There's no switching between both modes atm

+1 for poweramp. First app I purchased, and I do not have any regrets.
I like PowerAMP, its almost only one with EQ ! I really love the preset Bass setting in EQ combined with Koss portapro headphones

Ill send u a tip in private msg.
For me it's between Winamp and Playerpro, Winamp is free but Playerpro is a little better IMHO. Both are good, if you don't mind spending the Benjamins then get Playerpro, you won't be sorry, otherwise get Winamp... Both are brilliant. Oh and you might wanna root your wildfire and run CM7... It's the way to go... But yeah if you're worried about warranties etc. then I guess you could stay on Eclaire... it's just like you're holding your phone back...
3d/cubed....pretty cool!

Player Pro does this.
Agreed +1 on player pro (current player with sense skin)
Also use the folder option as well...so that option won me over entirely
I think there is like one more player that offers a folder option (trust me I went through them ALL) but cant think of it to save my life...might of been miui player??? idk?? dont hold me to it...
I think Mixing had folder option as well. I started using Player Pro a couple years ago and never looked back.
It's good but i prefer poweramp

It has a nice interface, but messing with the EQ too much causes it to hang. And if music is playing, you can't control it in any way, the only solution is to force close the app.
I usually just use Amazon MP3 to play music. The stock Blur player leaves a lot to be desired, and Google Music doesn't (seem to?) differentiate between cloud and local playback. With Amazon MP3 it's real easy. Plus, I buy music from them and I've ripped and uploaded my CDs to their cloud (and to Google's, it's nice to have options, heh). It isn't a great player, but it's reliable. And while I enjoy music, I don't play it on my phone often enough to need a fancy player.
But, thanks for the link, it was fun to try out.
I use winamp pro and mx player pro. Let me know what are your favorite music+video players!

poweramp + dice player/super video for youtube etc.
player pro music player, been using it since the days of x10 mini pro and LG P920.
I use to use poweramp but have been using playerpro for music lately
for video either mobo player or MX player
Neutron!! The only player that supports crossfeed and normalization! It has the best audio quality of any app (tried like 25 different players) and the interface is an audiophile's heaven, although it might seem a little complex to the average user.

Same Schiphol.
Music is my hobby. Since I tried Neutron Mp, I don't care for ANY other music app !
What is limitation of Neutron mp?
1. It can't play .dts!
2. Eats battery, depends on version.
That's all.
What Neutron can do?
Decode .tta 5.1 chanels!
Decode 32/96 format. (Resample)
Dcode 24/96 format. (Sent as is to dac)
Decode 50Mbps bitrates! (Special format 24/382.1)
Normalizer function
Parametrical EQ. This is hard to use , but no competitor!
Strongly recommend!
Second recomend : runs also DSPmanager apk, delete all other dsp like eq.apk, musicfx.apk !

Just moved from S2 to S3 and installed Dice movie player and for some reasons it keeps freezing and hangs
Poweramp and vplayer here. I may have to give Neutron a go though.
I used to like poweramp but it force closes randomly. Mainly if I skip songs. Annoying if I skip like 4-6 tracks it then force closes. It did this on my Note too. Tried different memory cards, music files, etc. Nothing has fixed it. On my Note it was only fixed by going back to gingerbread.
Until that bug is fixed I am staying away. Even the update the other day hasn't fixed it. And the developer has offered swear f all for help when I report the issue. Blames it on my phone. Two phones, 4 memory cards, over 3,000 different files, different file system types, and same issue present in all scenarios on ICS.
Switched to player pro and all is well. Can hit skip 100 times in a row and it won't crash. I use MX Player for videos.
I wish neutron had a better UI, it makes my Aurisonics sound phenomenal. Maybe I'll give it another shot soon, see if I can get used to the UI

Actually the stock player seems good enough for me.
current using winamp pro (like the wireless sync features), tested poweramp, sounds very good with headphones but a waste currently have crackling sounds issues like stock player, hope it gets fix soon
stock and stock! both stock apps are amazing. poweramp only has the ability to delete songs while playing, aside from this the UI of stock is far superior. just wish it had as many options as poweramp
as for video, stock is great, love the landscape toggle, and subtitle support. and popular play, common what more can you ask for

Has anybody else had issues when playing audio files on their phone either through headphones or through the speaker? When I stream the audio it sounds just fine but when I put the physical audio file on my phone is pops and clicks.
My Phone:
At&t SGS3
No Root/Stock IOS
Here is what I have tried so far:
-Placed audio file on internal SD card.
-Placed audio file on external SD card.
-Tried multiple music players.
-Tried different headphones and used the speaker.
-Verified that the audio file does not have pops and clicks when playing on other devices or streaming to my phone via "Play Music"
Thoughts suggestions? Bad phone? Default my phone and start over ;( ?

Are you on power saver mode? also try to close all the running applications and see if it fixes. If not, try downloading any other music player(Apollo or poweramp)
I have the same annoying issue. No matter the music player or volume setting I still get the popping noise. I don't have any other issues with the phone so I hope it's a software bug. Since the phone is rooted i would rather not have to take it back and get it exchanged.

I have the same issue however mine is limited to PowerAmp music app. In my case, I learned that certain albums have this issue and that when I listen to them in the stock music player and Ubermusic (another music app in the Play Store) I had no popping sound. For my issue, I have a theory that the only music that pops is the music I copy over from my iTunes library. I have music stored in two locations c:/Music and c:/Music/iTunes/iTunes media/iTunes Music, only the albums copied over from iTunes directory have resulted in popping. With my last phone, Droid Incredible, I did not have any popping issues so I know the problem is on Samsung's end. I even emailed the dev for Poweramp and they believe the issue lies with Samsung since other users notice this issue in multiple music apps.
I've been trying to listen to music in my spare time from work to see if there is any pattern to the issue.
Well I've had the issue even in the tune in radio app. Went to sprint and they ordered an exchange for Tuesday. Had to unroot of course.

Did you think it is the way that iTunes converts the music? All of my music is stored in iTunes, I will have to rip an album not in iTunes and see if that fixes it. From the responses, it might sound more like a software bug than a hardware issue.

This i don't understand. I don't hear it either with that app. I'm going to retest audio through Bluetooth. But since we're in the minority I feel it's best to exchange the phone. I want to be able to use whatever player I want no? ringtones are still affected.
I still hear a pop in between songs.

Just tried power amp via Bluetooth and it pops worse than the other players. Calls sound fine. Definetly exchanging this on Tuesday.
I'm not sure what to think of this cracking issue. One one hand, Poweramp is useless (for me) but stock music player and a severely outdated (by about a year) Ubermusic aren't noticeably giving me cracking noise...yet. Any thoughts on how to proceed?

Let us know if the new phone fixes the issue...
FYI: I only ever hear popping and clicking when my USB cable is plugged into my noisy computer, and not my A/C charger, or when unplugged. I hope you're not returning the phone for this reason...
This happened to me using power amp pro. Is it an annoying buzz every now and then? If so that's what I had. I emailed the developer and he gave me some instructions on how to tweak the advanced settings and it fixed it for me. I'm not sure if it will be the same for the other players however it is worth a shot! Also It happened to most my songs but there would be the odd one that wasn't affected. I don't use itunes at all for my music so I can confirm that is not the cause.
Settings => Audio => Advanced Tweaks => Audio Thread Priority. Change it to +2 or the highest.
(if it still does it on +2 switch it to the highest)
Hope it works for you guys too!
My phone doesn't pop or crack but you can hear the static/hiss/white noise when something is being played. If the music/video is paused the sound goes away. But when the audio starts to play, you can hear the hiss on low volume but will go away on high (probably cause the actual audio is overwhelming the hiss).
Is this a hardware issue as well? It's a bit annoying when you have for example a piano playing, acoustic guitar, or some soft background/vocal going on cause the hiss can be very well heard in those situation but disappears when a lot of elements of music are mixed.
Hi, thanks in advance for the help.
I recently copied a lot of music from my computer to my phone, and I use Poweramp to play it. Everything is fine except for an annoying problem which I will try to describe as best as I can:
Each song has a length obviously, however, when in Poweramp, this length is increased for every song, producing a sort of very long gap at the end of every song. For example, if my song is 3:20 of music, Poweramp will add 15 more secs of useless space at the end of it, making it 3:35. Should I click the progress bar right at the end of the song, it will do nothing but immediately change to the next track (for example, if I want to play the last 5 seconds, nothing will play but it will only play the next track).
Summary: Poweramp adds useless, not even playable space at the end of every track.
I have tried doing a full rescan, a rescan, changing track names, clearing data, clearing cache.. nothing.
Can you please help me?

I've had this problem before and I still have it now. It seems like poweramp doesn't like manually encoded mp3's. So did you encode some? Like used a youtube to mp3 converter etc? If you did then the problem will arise. If you are patient enough you can encode the mp3 files again using audacity and export them as a 320kbps ones or you could just buy the original music through itunes or somewhere that legally sells downloadable mp3's

I don't know about Audials but yeah somehow Poweramp doesn't really like programs converting the mp3 files. And about Audacity I just accidentally found out about it and it works wonders after it exports the mp3 files and weirdly poweramp doesn't add those additional 15secs of playtime.

BUT you tend to lose even more quality when converting from lossy to lossy AFAIK... It would work as a temporary solution though. Thanks for the tip!
I had contacted their customer service and they knew NOTHING, they even asked me to send them a sample song just to tell me to do the Full Rescan. I would ask for a refund, but the app is so good at everything else!

i'm no music expert but yeah it would lose quality but the difference is unnoticeable imo. The app is really quite good and really stands out of all the music apps on the playstore. And nope i haven't contacted them about this issue as I've downloaded most of my music on itunes so no additional encodes were required.
If you don't add any more compression and change encoding - you wont lose quality. Its not the process that loses quality, its your settings

Nope the update didn't fix it.
I was checking and analyzing everything today and it does have to do with the encoding. I had mp3s that were shown on iTunes as 'MPEG Audio' and some others as 'MPEG Audio File'. The first ones had the problem when added to Poweramp, the other ones didn't.
