Q - App - Apollo music - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I ripped Apollo music out of cm9 as I liked it... and I'm now on aokp.
However I have an interesting issue. Some of the music I copied from my computer to my phone shows 3 copies. Only some. Its mostly only with full albums...
I wouldn't have too much of an issue if the extra copies weren't pointers to random songs. Its not the same song each time either... which is really frustrating.
Anyone have any ideas?

Music Player doesn't have all the songs

I have comm rom on my fascinate and tons of songs on my sd card, but when i use the music player it doesn't have all the songs in the library. why is that? is there anyway to fix it? or make it work?
Double check the formats of your music to make sure its .mp3 or similar. Good place to start.

the formats are all .mp3
I can confirm this problem. The songs are there but the music player doesn't show them. A tiny bug...

use root exploret or similar and go into your sd card and delete the android folder and reboot. This fixed it for me. I've also had a problem where sometimes it would show the same song multiple times and it would fix that too.

[Q] Missing Songs from Music Library

Hi everbody.
I have Sensation with Android 2.3.5 right now. And there is a problem I couldn't solve and find any solution about it.
Some of my musics don't show up on library no matter which music player I use. These songs don't have any particular property that can cause it. Half of the songs of same album or different bitrates or same bitrates or same tags or different tags. It's just mixed at all.
I can see and play these songs using file explorers.
Different roms don't change anything either. Sense or CM.
Deleting and copying music files again or tagging again didn't solve.
Formatting SD card didn't solve.
Deleting cache of MediaProvider.apk didn't solve.
Changing file manes or folder didn't solve.
I use cover art downloader to refresh mediastore everytime but it doesn't stick.
I'm tired of it.
I'm open to the ideas...
What is the format of your songs that can't play normally?

MP3. To clear things up, they play normally but don't show up on libraries of music players. After I trig scanning they show up. After some hours they dissapears from libraries again.

I don't have this problem. I have up to 22mb mp3, 512kbps bitrate, mp3 or flac format.. btw, I use Google music.
If you try to search the music using search option in music app, will it work?

Mines are V0 Mp3 and their size are up to 15 MB. Average is 8 MB. Totally 1567 songs.
Search can't find them either because they're not included in library.
Btw, there are people who have that problem on the net. Even on Google forums(I don't know exact name) after long conversations still no solution as far as I read.
So no one has any clue?

Tried an hour ago, it added the missing songs to the library. Just came back to check if it's still ok but no luck. They dissapeared again.
unfortunatly I am kinda having same problem but I think mine is a bit more irritating. ever since I updated to gingerbread on my thunderbolt all and I mean all my music was misscatigorized, band names changed ,song names changed. it appears that the only ones that didnt change were one that had all info even album art. even newly downloaded songs are misscatagorized. im considering deleting the stock player all together . who the hell has the time to go threw and re name everything or re download .

[Q] What music app are you using?

Since I got my Atrix I have been using the Google Music app. Streaming is nice however today I have asked myself why bother streaming when I have a 32 gig micro sd card sitting in my phone going unused? What music player has the best functionality as well as decent ui? What are my fellow Atrix users using?
(sold my iPad 2 deleted iTunes and I think that's what got me thinking about it)
Poweramp ftw.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nullsoft.winamp&feature=related_apps
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.maxmpz.audioplayer&feature=related_apps
I don't use either one but I've heard good things. Winamp is free and PowerAmp has a free trial.

Just bought poweramp! it looks nice . Google Music is my backup since I like to flash a lot. but Poweramp definitely looks nice .
*I did just install winamp on my pc. I am no longer under apple's tyranny!
Winamp is the ****! Been using it since forever!
I've tried doubletwist, but right now I am actually trying out Google Music and I kinda like it as a normal music player. It doesn't seem to respond to my bluetooth headphones right off the bat, but once I play something, it works. One thing it does that the ones I've tried so far is that it groups my "various artists" albums into one entry instead of one entry per artist. Doubletwist had them spread out, but if I selected one of the entries, it showed me all the songs on that album.
I also used titanium backup to freeze the built-in music player.
I love Google music. I sync my songs and we are all good in the cloud.

Rhapsody all the way. For 10 bucks a month, all the music in the world, nothing can beat that.

For paid music Rhapsody does win hands down.
I also like Sirius xm for paid streaming.

may I ask what you guys like about player pro?
I like player pro because of the UI and the features. It's truly beautiful. It does an excellent job with artist and album artwork. The buttons are also bigger than on Power Amp, making it easier to control when on an elliptical or treadmill.
PlayerPro wins hands down for me. Also, download the DSP pack.
I used winamp... really whips the lama's ass

Music works fine over here...for the most part. The only issues in terms of music after flashing ROMs was that my songs doubled and if I played the doubled version I'd get an error message. I also noticed my music library contains notification sounds and audio from my videos I've taken, a little odd but im still able to listen to music with out any real issues. What are your issues?

I had the same problems, so I would just go back and flash cm9
I founded out when you flash a new ROM and music seems to not play or find. You want to get a file explorer and go on your storage and look for a file that says "No music" and delete it. I did that and now my music play's perfectly
Hope that helped!

MP3 tags - hella annoying!

I've got some songs in an album. But my favourite music player doesn't seem to be detecting them as all coming from the same album. So i've got 2 albums now...
I used id3fixer app and it fixed great an album for me, but not this one.
How can i fix this?

Do you want to fix this directly from your phone or PC? (i'll tell you what i use for both anyway ) I always change my ID3 tags on my lappy with mp3tag, works like a charm.
when i have had wry music tags on my phone, i've used iTag - music tag editor from the play store.

Is that the file name or the ID3 tag? Change both if you have to. For me i categorize my tunes with a bracket system, ie: (Albums) , (Dance) , (HipHop).
Also for me the actual file name is more important and most players will read that first if you tell it to.
R: MP3 tags - hella annoying!
I just discovered....all players using android libraries for playing music (double twist included) cant read that file not being associated with all others (vlc does read it thou)...')could that be why?
