Good Custom Music Shuffle App? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I'm looking for a nice simple app where I can customize the shuffle for the music in my phone. Most of the apps I've tried only let me shuffle the entire library, or the all the albums for an artist, or only one album. I want an app where I can select which albums I want to add to the shuffle list. It's something really simple, but I can't find any app where I can do that. Do you you know any? Thanks.

Create a playlist and add the albums / songs you want. Load the playlist and enable shuffling. This can be done in any music player.

Thanks, but that's exactly what I don't want to do. I want to be able to select different items quickly, not having to create a new playlist each time.

Ringtone Maker

Hi,
I an facing an issue. How do you use part of a song to make a ringtone? Is the stock MUSIC app able to create such files. I tried but whenever I try to set a ringtone using 'Set as' it does not give any option to select part of the song. I tried Ringdroid and other apps but it seems that none of them can create ringtones from flac format songs.
Any solutions.Please help.

If you Google, there are a number of free ringtone maker sites. Don't know if they support flac though.
So the stock music app cannot cut songs to make ringtones??

Transferring music to my galaxy

I'm a converted iPhone/iTunes user. This is my first android phone. What's the easiest way to get my music out of iTunes onto my Galaxy?
Thanks.

If you just use google music and download the music manager, from there choose the file folder for your iTunes library and google music will upload it all. You can just use google music to stream only, or you can make it available offline and download the music

Or you can just copy and paste your music folder onto the phone.
Then there are also other sync options like DoubleTwist which is very similar to iTunes (don't use it myself but it's known to be like an iTunes for Android if you're into that sorta thing)
search for iSyncr in the Market

I just transfered my library like this, but the tags are all messed up. The tags are fine on my iDevices, just the Galaxy. Specifically the Albums are split up. They show up as different albums even though they have the same name.
Mine show up fine. Although I am pretty meticulous on editing my tags in iTunes. Could be that there are different entries for the Artist and Album Artist.
I just copied and pasted. The only thing lost from iTunes to the phone was album artwork. Which is slightly annoying but, something I can live with. I tried using kies to do it that was a mistake though.

I just switched over to CM7, and the same music folder is showing up fine. Maybe it was just the stock rom.

Yeah. I'd rather just use Windows explorer.
Thanks for all the suggestions!

Yeah windows explorer is the best way to go. When I tired kies it was.to see if I would keep the artwork. None of the tags stayed at all. So I had to delete and use windows explorer again.

I made a playlist for my galaxy in iTunes then synced the playlist to Doubletwist. It copied the playlist over minus some artwork. I've got the artwork now. All is well.

I use iSyncr, the best app you can get to sync all of your iTunes playlist (every single one off them). I also came from an iPhone and at the beginning had difficulty finding an app that would provide all the functions itunes had from the music aspect.
Try it.

Music App w/ 'folder browse'... ?

I'm looking for a music player that won't scan for music & use its own browser software... I want one that will allow you to manually browse the folders on your sd card for music.
Can someone recommend one?
oh schnap y0'z!!!!!... I actually found something that's as close as its gonna get(apparently)... its called Folder Player incase anyone else is interested.
Meridian allows you to choose your folders

cool beans. I like Folder Player more for its simplicity, but this definitly comes in 2nd.
MortPlayer is also a good one

music player that only scans selected folder

is there any music player that doesn't automatically scan all the sd card?
i listen to audiobooks on my phone too and currently using winamp but it lists all the audiobook files as well as the my music tracks which is a bit annoying. tried stock player which has the same behaviour.

why don't you set folder view in winamp...you can select sibgle folder to play
Power Amp. You can select the folder for your mp3 and it will scan only them.

lol I'm guessing not,i don't think I'm that blind
gonna see how i go with TTpod for a while,i couldn't find folder select option but gives more options as how to navigate and being able to browse by filename is a feature i like too.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA
There are other options too.
MIXZING for example it has both the functions that you need.scan a particular folder as well as play by folder.
U can give it a try but nothing beats power amp.using it from a long time.if you can afford it just go for it.
Edit: mixzing is free
Sent from my GT-I5800
unfortunately i can't afford poweramp but I'll give mixzing a try, thanks

well mixzing seemed perfect, love the interface but it doesn't play flac!!! such a pity because it seems a great player apart from that.

Try ttpod
download free from play store,offers lyrics and many more features.
I’m using MusiXmatch, very good player on its own, it can also run as a service and detect the lyrics when you’re using another player.
It has also Shazam/soundhound-like recognition features.
use playerpro...
i finds lyrics and even tags it to the mp3

+1 for MusiXmatch.
I have tried many, and MusiXmatch is the one I kept. I like its simplicity, lack of annoying social feature, excellent lyrics database. The only thing I would like to see added is highlighted lyrics. TuneWiki does it, using the same lyrics database I believe, but is annoying as hell trying to shove its social interaction all the time.
Hint: use lucky patcher to remove ads.
+1 for PlayerPro. Best part is that you only download lyrics you wanna know, not every single song you play (saves alot of battery).
I am using TuneWiki. Have tried also MusicXmatch. Prefer the first one
PowerAmp player + musicx match lyrics pluggin is a good combo, poweramp is the best player out there ,lots of options ,even amplifies audio out...

PlayerPro. You can search lyrics for a song you like and save them. Also, you can search for album art (unlike MusiXMatch) and many other great features.

Minilyrics is the only application which can provide lyrics for all the bollywood and hindi songs. So far i haven't come across any music player other than this which supports bollywood song lyrics.
i used tunewiki when i first got my G1. so go with that.

Yup, that so true. However Minilyrics is a barebone app. There is nothing more you can do with it.
Please give the instructions!!
