1) Is there any decent graphic equaliser apps that you can recommend?
2) I find that when I use coverflow - it only does it on individual tracks. So I'll get an album cover of Tom Waits, but it is only one track. And the next one will be another track by another artist ( random ) - one thing I do miss on the iPhone is the Album art represents an album, and when you tap it it flips over to show you all the tracks on that album. Anyway of getting the Hero to behave like this?
cheers all
I spoke to someone last week who said he downloaded Music Player (which was new) because it had a GE - much better he said than the standard player.
But, he's not around and I can't find it. Would be cool to know where it is. Perhaps on the other Cyrtex (sp?) market?

Hello forumers,
I recently transferred my songs to my Galaxy S II, but the album cover is all blurred out and looks horrible! I used iTunes when I was still using my iPod Touch and they all look great. I usually use album art cover size 500x500 and copy and paste on Windows Media Player and also sync my phone through there and not KIES, since KIES seems randomly erase information about the song e.g. Artists. I do not know how to fix this problem about the cover art... Can someone please point me to the write direction? Much appreciated!
EDIT: I have also tried MixZing(always freezes), Dualtwist Player, and the stock Google Music App, but they all look blurry and the same.
hi there..
I embedded all album arts into the mp3s in my pc using mp3tag... all working in my pc...
so i copied all the mp3s into my sensation XE.. all the album art is not displaying in the stock music player like it shows in the pc..
i tried viewing all the mp3s in my phone using another pc, all the album art is there.. but the phone is not displaying.. any help?
I'm gonna bump this one.
I have the exact same problem. I've used hours upon hours on sorting my music through mp3tag, giving them new names, making new folders, finding and embedding artwork in tags, and so on. And when I decided to throw it all on my Desire S, it almost didn't show any artwork at all! I shows like 1 percent or so, the rest is just blank.
Now, I know the phone can show it, cause a lot of the music has been on the phone before and showed artwork. BUT.. the problem was it didn't show all artwork (only around 90 percent or so), so I decided to transfer all my music onto my 64gb mincro-sd card once again (have around 50gb of music), only this time having sorted it all through said mp3tag.
I've used both the stock HTC music player, Winamp, Doubletwist, PowerAmp and others, but noone seems to be able to load all of the artwork. It propably has something to do with the android media scanner, but I have no idea how or why, everything I've tried seems to fail: Clearing the media scanner cache, restarting the phone etc. Maybe it's due to some spacial limitation on 'new scannable media' in incoming media scans on startup, who knows.
All the artwork shows up beautifully in Winamp on my computer, but not on my Android. And it pisses me off, as I'm actually quite fond of the whole Android experience. But as a music lover it's just soooo annoying that it's so terrible at handling music and related artwork.
I could of course use e.g. PowerAmp to fill out missing artwork, but it'll propably only work for the app itself, and I have too many albums to be arsed to do it all over again. As said, I already did use so much time on embedding artwork to id3v2.3 tags, and I just don't understand why the phone can't load those tags and related artwork without problems.
Anyone tried the same? Something similar? Other thoughts?
I use Android 2.3.5 btw.
SAME HERE
BUMP! as well!!!
owning a droid razr here and i have the similar problem as well... BUT I CAN SEE MY ALBUM ART AT THE LOCK SCREEN
other apps such as doubletwist etc are able to show my album art but the STOCK music player doesnt even show a SINGLE album art...
i classify all my song in their albums like a;ways and tag them from mp3tag...
100% sure they are there but they cant seem to show up on the app
Hope ics update will come earlier and fix this???
BTW
my phone had successfully shown the album art the first time i uploaded them into my internal storage but now it cant seem to work as before any more
after syncing them to my 16gb sandisk microsdhc....
now syncing it to my interal storage doesnt work as well...
Bump. Even downloading using album art grabber, and setting it to overwrite the default artwork, it doesnt stick. Plus, everytime i restart, all my artwork needs reaaplying, everytime i copy/to from the card, the artwork messes up, and my playlists vanish. Album artwork has already been pre-embedded, but winamp wipes it on transfer, forcing me to use album artwork grabber app. Is there ANY way to make these changes stick?
So after downloading a album artwork grabber the stock music player so finally done . . .
Or so I thought . . .Going into some artist shows the same album broken up into maybe 5 different albums . . .So I have say Linkin Park then Hybrid Theory slip up 3 times with a single or few tracks in.
How do I fix this? I know Itunes would do it if there was a space in the album name or something stupid like that .
I always find then moving media to a device you should make sure all your albums are using the right "tags". I use WMP to move all my songs as the GS3 is a media device and this makes it very easy to move your album correctly.
If that's not helping the PlayerPro application on the play market grabs album artwork for you and its very good at tagging songs correctly: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tbig.playerpro&hl=en
I have an HTC Desire 626s that I purchased about a year ago, and one thing I love about it more than anything is being able to listen to music on it. I've used 3rd party music player apps on my device before, but I just have always liked the convenience and simplicity of the default player. One thing I must say is that it surprises me by how well it does with recognizing album art and especially, artist photos. Almost every album art and artist photo is automatically updated by the device, and the key thing that upsets me is the *almost* part. There are just so many of the artist photos/album arts that are unrecognized by the app, and that really irks me because I enjoy seeing what the artists look like and viewing the album arts while listening to my music. So what I'm inquiring is this: is there any possible way to have my album arts AND artist photos be visible for all my music, without having to solely depend on an album cover grabber app for both? I learned this trick on my own where I use a cover grabber app to scroll to the latest downloaded album, then set a picture of the artist as the cover art, then the default player would use that cover as the thumbnail, essentially making it a makeshift artist photo. I stopped doing that months ago because it became too confusing and a pain, plus, since they don't save after I eject than reinsert my external SD, it just became pointless. So is there any way to manually set the album art and artist photos for all my music directly on my phone and have them show up in my default player of my HTC desire 626s, while being able to keep them after reinserting the external SD?
