I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried to convert any offline music files that they have saved with Tidal, into a listenable format? If that makes sense. Like for example, with Google play music, offline files are saved in mp3 format within the filesystem, but with TIDAL I can't seem to figure it out. Thoughts?

What audio formats does the Streak play?
I never had so much trouble looking up the answer to such a simple question.
So experimentation shows that it doesn't play lossless wma files.
Is there a lossless format that will play on it?
get PowerAMP it plays plenty of file types:
mp3, mp4/m4a (including alac), ogg, wma*, flac, wav, ape, wv, tta (* some wma pro files may require NEON support)
I love it, it's automated, so when I plug in my headphones (even BT ones) it resumes play.
the basic player is just that, basic.
I'd link it, but I'm new, look it up on appbrain.

Good question. I can only speak for FLAC support as I don't use anything else.
The only Android media player that I know of that recognises FLAC is PowerAMP
http://powerampapp.com/
I second @bugmenotacc's endorsement.
I tried PowerAmp and it didn't play the album I ripped to flac.
I read the help section this morning (amazing what you can learn when you do that) and found out about selecting folders instead of the android library and lo and behold flac files play. Looks like I'll probably end up buying PowerAmp.
Yes it gets a bit confusing, glad you got it sorted too.
I loaded about 6 albums to my sd card today and set Android Settings to pull in the album artwork. Which all happened very quickly and seamlesly.
It is probably old fashioned of me but I prefer to set a Music folder rather than always have the app search my device for files.
Enjoy the app.
So I did do a search before posting and the only topics I had found were referring to mp3 on an external sd card... I do NOT have an sd card installed.... so far I tried dragging and dropping the files on the phone and then I removed those and used kies to load the music to the phone...
but if I go to music it just keeps saying, sorry, this player does not support this type of file?
Oh, the weird part.... some songs work fine, only certain ones give me that error... which really makes it hard to shuffle..... all files are mp3!
Suggestions?
Are the mp3 files vbr?
Seems like my SGS2 cannot play some vbr mp3 files.
not that I know of, lol.. I just looked at the files that will not play and it does not mention that anywhere, thx

No issue here with vbr mp3 files
So I've got Google Music storing all of my music locally so it is available offline. It stores the music this directory:
X:\Android\data\com.google.android.music\cache\music
It's not visible in the WebOS default Music Player or in Music Player Remix. Anyone know why not? Anyway to make this work?
WebOS manages to find every image on the drive, including random crap from the browser cache, and any documents that are stored, why not music as well?

Interesting question. I would suspect that it has to do with the separate partitions, and perhaps file system compatibly.
Sorry, I don't have an answer...I'm partially replying to subscribe to the thread. And partially to give food for thought.
Recently i have been experiencing that my memory card was not reading only my music mp3 files..... Can someone help me with this plz?
I think you need to elaborate a bit more as I'm not entirely sure what your situation is. Naturally your sdcard has different types of files on it and not just mp3s, mp4s etc. Where are you trying to view your music files?

Maybe the music indexing service that runs on boot hasn't indexed those files? Since he's able to view new files, it would seem that it's indexing these new files, but for some reason isn't doing the same for the already existing files. My friend's HTC One X had a similar issue and I fixed it by going to Manage apps>All and clearing data of the app that contained the Android indexing service. I forgot what it was called though. If anyone knows the name you can tell him to try to clear it's data, reboot and leave his phone untouched for 5-7 minutes.
1-backup data and music
2-clear temp data
3-format memory in fat32
4-reapet copy music files in memory
5-restart phone
6-wait for find music with player
check and play your musics for any players...
This is an old Android issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4314
I looked around and saw some topics on this but didn't find a solution. It seems as though the music that I put on my internal storage isn't able to play on google play music. Any ideas on why this is? The simple fix is to take the songs out of the internal storage, which I haven't tried yet, but I am currently using those songs for either a notification sound or ringtone. I don't understand why it would still have a trouble requesting the song, even though the song is still on my Itunes. Thanks guys
Weird. Some do and some don't on mine. Never noticed cuz I use Poweramp as my player. My solution would be pay a couple bucks for Poweramp and move on with life, although I know I won't be able to let it go. Other solution would be to upload songs to Google Play Music.

The HTC One doesn't support some music formats. Here is the HTC Sync Manager FAQ: http://www.htc.com/www/software/htc-sync-manager/?section=FAQ
A solution would be to convert the files into one of the music format the One does support
