LG G5 Stock music app - LG G5 Questions & Answers

New to LG here. Just switched from a Moto X as my upgrade finally came through.
Perhaps a simple question, I am just playing around and wondering if there is a way to sync my Google Play music library to the stock Music app on the G5. I like the different sound options (bass boost, surround, etc), and wanted to see how if it might work.
Thanks for the help.

As far as I know you can only play Google play music on your Google play app. Your LG player will detect anything else you add but not the stuff downloaded via Google play music. Unless you bought the music at which point I wouldn't know.

[Q] Google Now "listen to" not working.

For some reason when I try and play music using Google Now by saying "listen to *********" it doesn't work. It will sometimes offer to use the stock HTC music player but I don't use it since it sucks. I have Play Music installed with all my music cached, and that's all it took with my Gnex. Before you ask, yes I did verify that Play Music is checked under Google Now>settings>phone search.
Is this not working for anyone else?
For me it seems to work only with non complex song title's.

[Q] Play Music --> HTC Music App

Hi all. Quick question:
I have google play all access, and I have stored the music locally on my device. I was wondering if there is a way to get all of my google play music files to play through the HTC Music app. Reason being, I want to install the Harmon-Kardon edition mod, but looks like the most benefit comes from using the HTC Music app. Does anyone know how I might go about sourcing all the google play files onto the HTC Music app?
Stock rooted, S-OFF, with latest OTA
Thanks!

The Harmon Kardon mod is really about enhancing compressed music, though it also supports 192khz via flac's, but you are asking about Play Music, which is compressed, even at high quality. The bottom line is that the mod works on all music apps, from Spotify, to Google Play Music exactly the same as it does for the HTC Music app. Technically, you can play the G Play music mp3's on any player, if you are rooted. You just need to move them to another folder. The down side is that the G Play app names all of the songs numerically, like 7483.mp3, so in the end, you are better off just using whatever music app you normally use.
another thing you can do is go into your default.xml file and edit the line pertaining to music channel (turning it on the rebooting, making sure the change has been saved). This allows me to play my playlists off Google music with the HTC player features, giving me access to the visualizer, lyrics (when applicable) etc, and the HK mod icons are active
Soon as I start a song, I get a notification that Music Channel is available, I click the notification and there it is

Stock music app w/ Google Play Music

I saw that Spotify was integrated in with the stock music app, but I never messed with it (Spotify was one of the apps I uninstalled immediately). I was wondering if it was possible to integrate the Google Play Music app with the stock music app (i.e. use the stock interface to listen to music from Google Play).
It's probably that I'm not a fan of the color orange... and Google Play Music has orange EVERYWHERE.
On a side note, just got the phone yesterday (coming from LG G3) and am loving it. Only got warm during the initial update, no lag happening afterwards... not sure why there's so much negativity in these threads on here.

Problem with voice Control for Music on Wear

Hey XDA-Developers Community!
I've got a Problem regarding the Voice Control Features for Music Playback on Android Wear.
I often use it to quickly start listening to Music of a certain Artist, by saying something like: play [artist].
But when doing this on my Moto 360 it always launches the SoundCloud app and searches for the corresponding Artist there.
However, I want this to be done with Google Play Music or the Music app provided by CM11.
When using Google Now on my Phone (LG G3 running CM11) I can choose which app should be used for Playback and it always uses my Preset.
I have "Music Playback" set to Play Music in the Android Wear Application and reset any default Actions in the app Directory of the Phone Settings.
I hope that someone maybe had the same Issue and/or knows a Way around it.
Greetings from Germany and I wish you all an awesome (hopefully sunny) Sunday!

Viper4android and Tidal doesn't get along?

Hi guys,
I'm using viper4android in my Moto G6 play and it works fine in Google play music and Spotify but it makes no difference in Tidal, even more, tidal music doesn't even sounds.
Is there any particular reason why this happens? And if true, is there any way to walk around it?
Thanks ?
