Hi all.
Now that some WM6 roms are coming with HTC Audio Manager I have been having a play with the software.
Does anyone know how to get it to sort your music via track number when you access it by album? By default it sorts by alphabet which seems pretty dumb to me.
I'd love any help as it seems like quite a decent audio player app.
Cheers.
My gues would be to include the track number when you rip your albums
yeah all the info is in the mp3 tags. they work fine under media player.
thanks anyway... any other suggestions?
Has anyone figured out how to get this to not put all the tracks alphabetically?
good work
thanx alot
hi guys,
This might be a quick one to answer, i hope
When using the music player, i have many folders of mp3 music from apps which i cant seem to get rid of and it makes shuffeling music awful. Is there a way to stop those files from showing in my music libary? I have 3 albums in the music folder located at root and i have 1000+ sound effects somewhere else...
Thanks in advance!
Good afternoon folks, I'm just curious if anyone can assist me with a quick question/issue I am having. I have done a search for my answer previous to creating this thread (and registering even), asked elsewhere etc, but didn't and couldn't really find anything pertaining to my exact problem. Of course, I may have missed or overlooked it, and if so, I apologize.
First, my phone and what not. (if more information is required, I'll provide)
LG Optimus One (LGP500h)
Rooted - Gingerbreak v1.20
Have tried .mp3 and .ogg with same results.
What's happening is; I've created my own ringtone(s) and am trying to have them separate from my music, but no matter what instructions I follow the custom ringtone ALWAYS appears while listening to the music I have on my phone. eg: when I walk my dog listening to an album, my ringtone lists as a music track and plays as one.
I have tried the numerous tutorials out there for doing this:
- create separate ringtone/alarms/notifications folders on the SD card
- create the above as sub folders within the media folder on the SD card
- create the above as sub folders within the DCIM folder on the SD card
- create the above as sub folders within the Sounds folder on the SD card
All of the above locations allow me to use my custom ringtone no problem, BUT when I listen to the music I've added to my phone via the stock music player, my ringtone plays as if it was a song, so I get a 30 second ringtone in the middle of an album. It's not really a big deal if I keep my custom ringtones limited to one, but it does get a bit annoying if I want to add several custom ringtones.
I'm curious to what I am doing wrong here, or if this is just the cost I have to pay to have a custom ring tone - I've searched all over and haven't found a solution, nor found anyone else having this same issue which leads me to believe I am doing something incorrectly.
I'd prefer to not use an app that downloads music for ringtones, as I am a musician myself and have created my own, so I'd just like to use the one(s) I create and not have them appear as music tracks.
Thanks in advance for any insight or help.

I'm not sure about any fix for the issue. But I think if you use a 3rd party music app like PowerAMP, you can select where you want the app to scan for media. You can exclude some folders for scanning. But if you prefer the stock app, the you can have a workaround: Create a playlist with all the albums except the ringtone album (categorize all the custom ring tones under a single album). This way you can always play the playlist, which will not have the ring tones album.
Try it and see if it works!
Thanks for the quick reply! I feel kind of silly now that I never considered using a different player, or even making a playlist as it seems kind of obvious to me now. I'll check out some music players (like PowerAmp) and will post again if this solves my problem.
Again, thank you for the quick response.
Under Sound Settings and Phone ringtone, I remember it created a Ringtones folder on my sd card. Then I would put my custom ringtones in that folder. I would never hear it when I was going through my music. I am also using PowerAmp and it scanned only the music folder.

Try it. It's a very good app. But personally I don't like it because of its UI. I prefer the simple, clean stock music player.

Unfortunately I didn't have the same results, and had to create my own.

Thanks gkarthik16, your suggestion seems to have solved my problem.
I also liked the stock player, but not enough to have to deal with my original issue. I tried out a couple free players very briefly, and although I'm not sure about PowerAmp's U.I just yet, I'm going stick with it for now and see how it works out and consider purchasing the full version. I imagine I'll get used it for my needs.
Thanks again.
Hi all.
can anyone advise on the best way to edit and/or delete the playlist and genre information that the stock Samsung Music app on the Galaxy S wifi 4.0?
As far as I can tell, this app stores such information (I'm guessing in a database somewhere) but there doesn't appear to be a way to purge said records if mistakes arise.
whilst I'm not using the app, it does seem as if somewhere along the line, the attempt to sync music, etc with the Samsung triggered the app and led to several minor problems with playlists and genres. Now in several other music apps, I appear to have duplicates of playlists as well as genres that only appeared in the Samsung app.
I don't mind if the solution is on the phone or on a desktop, however I'm not running a rooted device and I have no plans to root the device.
Advice gratefully received.
Thanks in advance.

I'm hoping to get some advice/suggestions as to the best iTunes-esque desktop based music manager to use to organise and sync playlists on my phone. I do have a subscription for Youtube Music so I do use that to listen to music most of the time but I also like to have my music collection and playlists remotely on my phone too.
Previously, I have used MusicBee to do this and I have all of my songs, album art and playlists organised on there but it can be a bit frustrating when it comes to syncing as sometimes instead of just transferring the new songs, it'll just start syncing the whole library as if nothing is on the phone.
Any suggestions for a good desktop-based music manager or alternatively, any other solutions to best manage the files onto my phone?

I may have misunderstood your question, but YouTube Music has an Android app you can use to remotely have all of your songs, playlists, etc... And on your pc if you have chrome, you can download the YouTube Music chrome app.
And if you want an alternative to YT Music go for Spotify, they have a PC and Android software.
Again, I think I totally missed your point so please clarify (or tell me I didn't missed the point lol)
Have a good one
