Hi,
try to delete Walkman data: Open "Settings->Apps->All" and choose "Walkman"; then "Delete data".
Now you should reboot your phone to rebuild the Music DB (or unmount and remount the internal SDCard).

I have this problem sometimes where new files won't show up for a while. Try take a look at this app on Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.addz.mediascanner&hl=en
When I copy new media over and it doesn't register I do this:
1) Go to Settings -> App Manager -> ALL -> Gallery -> (Force Stop and Clear Cache/Data)
2) Go to Settings -> App Manager -> ALL -> Media Storage -> Clear all Data and Cache (and force stop is possible).
3) Run the Media Scan app linked above.
4) Wait 35-80 seconds
5) Reboot phone.
If that still doesnt work I try taking SD card out and then rebooting with it out and putting it back in ^^

[Q] Apollo music system

I download a new theme for Apollo music & when I installed it the songs are appearing thrice. I am using RR 2.4 ROM can somebody tell me how to uninstall Apollo music player.
It's a system app, huh? Well then you can try uninstalling it with Titanium Backup or remove Apollo.apk from /system/app/.

[Q] .nomedia doesn't stop image from showing up in gallery

Hey,
I have a navigation folder with images in it. I put a .nomedia in the file to prevent the images from showing up in gallery. However, they do still show in gallery. Am I doing something wrong? Im dumbfounded now....
OK Well I have quickpic installed. I added .nomedia file to a directory and it instantly disappeared from quickpic but not from the samsung gallery, even after a reboot.
I removed the file and it instantly showed back in Quickpic. Added and it went again.
So either;
1) The Samsung gallery ignores this .nomedia
2) The Samsung gallery does not necessarily scan the SDcard on a reboot and hasn't found the .nomedia file yet.
All I can do is wait to see if at somepoint, that directory disappears from samsung gallery.
As a work around, use quickpic as a gallery replacement perhaps.
Samsung gallery only scans it on first time, so
Place .nomedia files in all the folders you do not want displayed in Gallery
Go to settings - apps - gallery
Clear cache, clear data, force close
Go to settings - apps - media storage
Clear cache, clear data, force close
Hard reset (cold boot) this will not delete any data

that worked like a charm. Stupid me, this happened to me before on CM9 using sgs2. The AOSP gallery was exactly the same.....
I think it also works if you :-
unmount the SD card,
run the gallery app and let it sort itself out,
close the gallery app,
mount the SD card,
run the gallery app again
It's WORKSSSS !! THAAAAAAAANKKKSSS...
All my picasa album gone from my phone gallery.. lool :laugh: :laugh:
Send from my GALAXY S !!!
put a .nomedia file in folder where gallery doesn't scan, it will exclude subfolder too.
rename that folder as .foldername and try to open gallery, it will crash.
rename back to foldername and open gallery ... no more unwated pics.

[SCRIPT] Make Play Music cache to external SD

Hey guys,
I was horrified when I fired up Play Music and saw that it was trying to cache tracks to the onboard NAND instead of my 64GB SD card so I raged a bit in IRC and did a cursory google search. The idea for my method comes from XDA user "skittles" in this post; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29063122&postcount=1
I edited the script post to be compatible with the AT&T variant of the LG Optimus G.
The command it runs is "mount -o bind /sdcard/external_sd/MusicCache/ /data/data/com.google.android.music/"
INSTRUCTIONS taken from skittles' thread:
Prerequisite: copy the .txt attached to this post to the root of the internal NAND flash, i.e. /sdcard/. Then make a folder in the root of your external_sd called "MusicCache." without the quotes or period.
1. Using whatever task manager you have or just go into settings->apps->running, close google play music.
2. Open your file manager and browse to /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache and delete all of the files found in music dir and artwork dir in this directory. This is very important step. If you do not delete your cache then your files will take up space but will no longer be available after this process.
3. Go to the google play store and install script manager - Smanager. Open smanager, and on first open you should see an option to select root, check that option and click ok and make sure to grant root to the app when the su dialog appears.
4. In Smanager browse to the root of your sdcard and click on and hold the "MusicScript.txt" to open a options dialog. Select "open as" and then select "Script/Executable".
Then Select "Su" and "Boot" and hit save.
5.. Go to settings app->apps->google play music-> and hit clear data.
6. Reboot your phone.
Open up google play music and click on Choose on device music, and you should see the total space available equal to what is available on your external SD Card
I did it like that and it works fine, please try it out and let me know if it works similarly well for the rest of y'all.
Thanks to fiddy619 and skittles!!!
Google does some strange ****....
Yes, but in what instance are you referring to here?

Didn't work for me. When I log back into Google Music, the cache is cleared but the free space is free on-board memory not sd card.
What exactly did you do? Please be as detailed as possible.

To begin: I'm rooted, unlocked and running the debloated Base 0.4 Rom.
This is what I tried to get the music to cache to the sd card:
1. Downloaded the script from your previous post and saved it to a folder on my sd card.
2. Downloaded Smanager and granted it root access.
3. In Smanager I browsed for the script on the sd card and long pressed it and clicked open as Script/Enable. Then I checked the Su and Boot boxes and clicked save. (After clicking save the program doesn't confirm a save. Should it? When I restart the phone and reopen the script in Smanager the Su and Boot boxes are still checked)
4. I opened the app settings for Google Play Music and cleared the cache.
5. I rebooted my phone and relogged into Google Play Music
6. I open Google music and "Choose On Device Music"
The free space listed is the same as my internal storage free space.
Thanks for all of your help!
You forgot to make a folder called '' MusicCache '' without the quotes in the root directory of your external sd card. Do that, wipe play music data and clear out the data/data/com.android.music folder, reboot and see if it works.

Still doesn't work. Free space listed is just the internal storage.

Cleared the Play app data again and restarted. Now it's working. I'm not sure why it it required multiple clears and restarts to take effect. Either way, Thanks!
Lol good, because I didn't know what else to tell you

I tried it out after having formatting issues on my 64 gb card. It seemed to work ok, but I kept getting fc's on the play music app. Those finally seemed to sort out, and then I made a dumb move and enabled 4g while syncing. Was throttled within an hour. lol

I've tried it out. I got tired of play music adding the BGM from Sonic 4 EP I to my playlist since the files to that game are all separate and not in one big obb file.
It now no longer does that, but now anytime I reboot my phone, I have to re-apply my settings in play music. (I usually have it set to random, and to repeat the playlist indefinitely.)
Other than that, all is well. :good:
That's weird, man. Mine has persisted through copying the external sd to a faster one and being reinserted into the phone and rebooted. :-/
Worked as advertised, thanks!
I guess we with lots of music on our phones are in quite the minority

I have a lot of music on my SD card, but don't use Google Music.

Ah, I use it because it's easy to see what's on the card and then switch to the cloud.
