Anyone else having trouble getting cloud music to play? I can see all of my songs in my online library but none if them play.

me too!
Is it a conspiracy to let users only use MotoCast 's Music app , not google's??
I can...but it takes a really long time for them to start....at first it wouldn't so I hit pause and backed out of the app...and about 10 seconds later the song magically started playing....weird....

Hey guys I cant even get my library of music to show up. Mine is just blank. Any ideas?
I had this problem on the bionic and was able to fix it using the following steps. I deleted the pre loaded music app using root explorer, but I would try it first leaving the app alone, who knows it may still work.
1) Go to manage apps
2) select the downloaded Google music app
3) wipe the data
That's it! Load up the app and it should prompt you to allow the app to link with your Google account.

As an fyi I tested the above on my razor without deleting moto's music app and it worked fine. Cheers!

Have you tried playing the songs? My issue isn't linking the account or loading the library but getting the songs to actually play...

Dang, well not quite sure what is up with my phone. At least I have the motocast for now.

I don't have a Razr but I have run into this a couple times. On mine, I'd click the song and it would just say something like failed to play the stream, or some such thing. Anyway, you are limited to 7 devices on Google Music. If you do a lot of flashing roms, each time you flash a new one, it's counted as one device.
If this is the case, you have to go to Google Music using a web browser on a PC and delete some of the devices listed there. To do this, click the gear icon at the top right of the page, then music settings. You'll find them there.
You sir deserve a genius award

LOL, I don't know about that. Talk to my friends and family and find out about all the stupid things I've done in my life and you might have second thoughts about that one. Anyway, from the sound of it, it sounds like you got the problem fixed. Glad to hear it.
If you ask me, it's kind of stupid on Google's part. The error message I mean. Don't know if it comes from the Android OS or directly from Google Music but it seems to me they could program it to tell you that you have too many devices attached to the account. The way it is now, you are just left in limbo. Oh well, all's well that ends well I guess.
So I've flashed stock jb roms. And the picture gallery and the video player app won't detect any video o photo before I flashed the Rom. I have to use quickpic to see my old pictures.
Anyone know how I can fix this?
Oh music isn't showing up either in the native music app

Go to application manager and clear data from Media Storage app..reboot..check if the pics are being shown..
Nope. I tried clearing the data in the medieval storage app and nothing pictures and videos won't show up in the gallery and video player native app
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
check if you have any .nomedia file in your pictures folder..enable the file explorer to see .(dot) file..if yes delete it and reboot..
This is the only option I can think of right now..
No there isn't any .nomedia files. It's really weird. And I've done factory resets. Permission fix and all wipes. And stuff..

I had this exact same problem only it was with my rooted Thunderbolt. Even now on my non-rooted Galaxy S3, I cannot view any of my old images from my external sd card (that used to be in the Tbolt) thru Gallery but still must use Quickpic. Wish I had a fix for it, its driving me crazy.

I'm an idiot when it comes to cloud storage. I have a bunch of music and I know it won't fit with the 16gb capacity on my DNA so I was wondering if there is a website or an app that will let me access all of my music from my computer on my phone?

I use BubbleUPnP to stream media from my pc. Works great with pix, music, and video. You need to install the server software on your pc to stream over mobile network.
Win7, media player 11 works great for me. I use MX player as a renderer on my phone. It has the best codec support.
There are several free cloud storage services but I don't know if you can stream to your phone from them

Google music lets you store like 20k songs for free. Also drop box gives you 25 gigs of storage although I think that might be only for verizon.
I use BubbleUPnP too. It is really good and easy to use.

How did you get 25 gigs for dropbox. I only have 3 1/2
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
When I opened drop box on my DNA I had to go through a tutorial and then I got the extra space. Not sure if its a Verizon thing or not.
I'm gonna look for the tutorial. I gained a little space (500mb) for auto upload but didn't see an opportunity for the rest. Will check it out

I don't know if this would be able to cover all of your needs, but you should check out Bitcasa. It's a new Cloud Storage service and I like it very much. You sign up and start off with 10gb free and you can upgrade to unlimited storage for $10 a month.
I use Bitcasa for my pictures and documents, but I use Spotify for music though... but I still hope this helps! :good:
Yeah I use Google music. Download the uploader from the Google music page and just start uploading your music then you can also redownload it later to all of your devices if you want to or stream it

Try Plex
Plex, app and desktop media server work well. I think the app is $5 but it works not only for music but you can access your movies, pictures, anything you upload to the app you can watch from pretty much anywhere. But for a free alternative, use google music.
I've been using Subsonic for a few years now. I have the Subsonic server installed on my desktop at home which allows me to stream all of my movies and music to my phone or computer. It was pretty easy to setup.

The dna does not have a dropbox promotion associated with it. You probably got it from a Rom which includes a promotion from a different device.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
No it has nothing to do with any roms. When I first installed dropbox on my DNA it had the 25gb bonus once I completed their tutorial. If you Google "HTC DNA dropbox" the first link from dropbox.com has all the details.

Yep, Dropbox 4.0/4+ bonus is not available for Verizon. Some people were able to get it from custom roms. I received a small bonus when i was on a custom rom with my thunderbolt so maybe that is why I cant get the second 4+ (25gig) bonus on my ViperDNA. You might be only able to receive the bonus (w/ custom rom) if you have not received any other sense bonuses in the past.
I My Google music uploaded on my pc stopped working and I get the couldn't connect to Google play. I have tried un installing reinstalling and disabling av as well as sent logs to Google and tried the access code and it still won't work. I have been working with Google for 2 months. So today I got an email and they have forwarded my case to a supervisor because the rep I initially got was horrible and they also credited me 10$ for inconvienece. Which is nice but it's still not working. I have had to transfer music to my laptop and upload which I use only for school so it's a pain in the butt has anyone had this issue and found a fix for it just curious because I don't think Google knows what to do.

Have you tried creating a second gmail/google account and using that for music? Your phone can have several google accounts setup. I have a google account with all my music synced to it; and all of my family put that account on their phone, in addition to their own personal google account. That way they have access to the same music, and we only sync the music from the computer to one account, instead of many accounts.
No my account is fine it's the upload program for the pc that doesn't work. It says it can't connect to the Google play servers so I can't even get into the sign in app...

Hi all.
When i watch a movie on my phone, i get a little icon that appears in the top and after some time it moves to the middle. (it looks like a Windows media icon). It only comes with files in wmv and avi format. I've tried alot of media players and they all do the same thing. I'm running on viper amaze 1.7.1 but it still does it regardless of the rom I use.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I also forgot to mention that when i connect my phone to my pc and disconnect, my sd card unmounts and i have to open the phone, eject and insert the card and it works fine.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

So it doesn't matter what Rom, or what player?

Well, I downloaded a really good quality avi (1080p) and I see what you are talking about!
I'lll look into what the heck is causing that..

This might be a stupid question but when I bought the phone yesterday I remembered seeing some pre loaded videos that looked pretty cool at showing off this wonderful screen but now I can't freakin find em.
Anyone know the location of the video I'm talking about?

Mine also got deleted. This phone comes packed so much extra crap you lose a lot of usable internal storage so I just wipe the whole thing. I was pleasantly surprised that I had 22 gigs of storage

Agreed, and would love to have one of the original videos that came with the phone. It showed off a bunch of landscapes but looked fantastic to really show off the display. When I first factory reset my phone (before rooting or anything) it wiped the files. I went to show the girlfriend and it's no longer there.
Presumably playing one of the Discovery Planet Earth videos in 1080p on Google Play would be able to show it off just as well. But I used it to play around with the built in video player that you could re-size etc.
I tried to share it elsewhere and it wouldn't let me, saying that it was a protected file. Even tried looking for it with a File Explorer and came up empty.
I must admit, those videos make the screen look GORGEOUS! Full HD 5.2 inch screen on minimum bezel...

they are protected files yes, locked to the individual devices. so once gone, they are gone forever.
speaking of those videos, did anybody find any demo videos that look as stunning as those on our screens?
I've deleted them when I got my phone, because I wanted more free space, but the other day I soft bricked my G2, so I had to restore everything and I got them videos back. I can upload them if you guys want.
again, they are protected and locked to individual devices, you can't play them anywhere else but your own phone.
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app
Ohh, I see now. You can't even take screenshots during the video. Silly DRM. Then I uploaded 2 other ones, they are regular .mp4 videos, so you can play them on your phone or anything.
Video 1 - It's actually an extended version of the stock Europe video, there's no music though.
Video 2 - This one also looks really gorgeous.
In you tube search lg 4k demo, you found several demo videos from lg, download with tube mate in original video o 4k resolution and you get a lot of videos in excellent quality.

download them and rename the extension with .dm instead of .mp4 and see if they play.
