[Q] iTunes port for Iconia? - Acer Iconia A500

Looking for a complete music manager i.e. iTunes, for my Iconia. Is this possible or is it out there?

I don't believe so but I've not had my tablet for very long. I used iSyncr and iSyncr WiFi to sync my music from itunes to the external SD card and use Player Pro to play the music.

I like WinAmp - simply because I can do WiFi sync from my PC to Tablet and Phone without wires or SD card swapping.
Just open Winamp on the PC and it shows my droid devices waiting for me to send music to.

Thanks to Torisen & pfc.joker for ideas. Music is the last hurdle in my conversion from everything iRelated

Currently giving Spotify a try
..and syncing my music as we speak. I will probably be able to give a better review later in the week after a bit of playtime.
Some features that drew me to it -
http://www.spotify.com/us/about/features/
...and no, I do not work for them. I too have been looking for something to consolidate music between all my devices.
Winamp was working pretty good for me, but wasn't doing so hot with the A500...
The stock Music browser is pretty and just okay, but not very powerful.
I'm hoping that the Spotify Android app can help me get all of it across all the devices...
More later!

Doubletwist is essentially itunes for android it works great

For a senior member on a site biased to modding, that was such a stupid answer.
Do you give that answer to everyone out their who wanted TouchFlo 3d on their NOT-HTC device
or maybe your wanting to send me the $1400 (nzd) needed for xperia, if so cough up, or maybe just read the post again, i have a htc touch dual, not a friggin xperia and all i want is a good music media app that is good and ascetically pleasing and the xperia has that pegged, and if you read my post again you will see i just want the media app, i dont want the panels or the haptic touch screen or the large bulk or that device, i just want the software which this website has proven time and time again that their is always some smart cookie who can supply the deman.
btw if i had the money for xperia, i would buy an android device. and veer entirely away from WinMo and Apples bastardized leopard port.
jealous anyway, google.com I've seen some pages over there
What do you want after all? The Media panel (Not as a panel, of course) or the Windows Media Player (Black with the Blue buttons - what's so special about it? I think it comes with every WM, right?)
kinda

what i want is that blue XMB interface and the black media player, and no unfortunately the WMP on my HTC Neon is like most parts of the the OS the most un-ascetically pleasing thing going

Thats the hard thing iv read about it, even seen vids about it, but they are few and far between, its like im the only one intrigued by the music player, heres a quote from Mobile tech review
"The Sony Ericsson Xperia, rather than slumming it with Windows Media Player Mobile, adds its own media player, accessible as a panel. This looks just like the media player on the Sony PSP and high end Sony Ericsson feature phones like the K850i and walkman phones. It handles photo viewing, video playback and music playback. We particularly like the music player, whose look, feel and features are top notch"
Any way just open up your Xperia, go into the music panel and their it is, the music player!!
If you mean this, thats `s the SE Media Panel. You can search for it as a cab and try it yourself. I don`t no if this works on a non Xperia.

If you'd of just searched through the internet and xda for the media panel you wouldnt have needed to start a thread about it in the first place - maybe you should do that in the future since those were the answers you got...

It is PEACH. Sometimes. I'm ok with the panel when it's plain blue but I think it changes backgrund color on a schedule. ?? At least I cannot find any settings or way to disable... peach.
It's also sort of oversensitive on the metatagging thing. My music library is in perfect order when I browse the library in the plain windows mobile player, no unknown artists or albums or whatsoever. The panel library always find some tags I didn't know are there - and I run the albums both in Mp3 tagger and Ashampoo music studio before I synch to the device.
Point is: don't have too high expectations, it's not that good.
wrong again

No you misunderstood yet again, but thats okay you probably just "donated' your way into being a senior member, i All i knew is that xperia had panels and a cool looking media player, i didnt no wat is was called and everytime i searched google i got naught, the closest i got was a a mod for the HTC touch PRO HD, which if u knew your sh!t wud no that it wudnt work on my htc touch dual becaus i have a vga screen as a the HD has a WVGA HD screen, i dont want the panels application, i just want the Sony ericson music player application and that previous poster kinda lead me on a red herring, please just bow out now, go find sum other person to say dumb **** too, and keep donating kuz mayb ull ba a moderator one day..,.
exekias, do you really think someone on this xda community will help you with that attitude?

Google I/O - Android Highlights

I'm not sure if everyone has seen this, but here is the video from Google's I/O Developer event:
Google I/O Day 2 - Android
It shows a bunch of things coming up in Froyo -
- browser based on chrome engine (3x - 5x faster)
- browser integration with camera, microphone, etc. (think web apps)
- ability to move apps to sd or leave on device
- update all in market place
- error reporting per app
- streaming music from pc to phone
- push apps from web right to phone
- a ton of jabs at apple and the ipad
- lots of new features in froyo, and further out.
It's 45min, so grab some popcorn. If you're an Android fanatic like me though you will enjoy every moment.
-AndyS-
i love Google lol
Google is God and Android my Savior lol
Watching this as I speak. This is awesome.
I saw on Twitter that everyone who went walked out with an Evo
at 35 min that streaming music is going to be awesome...

Yeah we got it but most devs are leaving for the EVO. So the question remains on if we will ever get a fully working port or not?

Hi Jlccarv, I did a little diggin as I was intrigued about this software. From what I can gather, I think it's gonna need flash? They said they were working on it a year ago, but you're the first person I've heard mention it? Here's the link:

I Do... but with Android. I use soundcloud Droid- Very nice app
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Hulmeman, cheers for your response, interesting info
Goaprinz, that may have to be the option i go for. thanks!
im also going to try the Zeta and Uzard web browsers and see if Sound Cloud works in them
well neither Zeta or Uzard browsers work with Sound Cloud. seems booting android is the only option on the HD2, quite sad really..
Android is definitely useful... the Soundcloud Droid app is good, but you cant look through followers/following, but can search artists and view/play your favourite tracks. works well.
but what is more awesome is that you have full functionality in the browser with Flash 10.1! everything works exactly like on your desktop! so, i'll b dual booting on the regular now =)

Video player question ..

I recently decided to part ways with my vibrant and go the mytouch route .. one thing I loved about the vibrant was on the video player, it gave you the option to lock the controls so touching the screen nothing came up .. as well as continuing to play each video etc .. is there a similar type of player for the touch? I am more interested in something that will allow me to lock the screen (my daughter watches videos).
Thanks!
You know... its funny, out of all the modifications Samsung made, this was my favorite, however it is a shame it is only in the Video player and not YouTube.... anyways I will check for you now.
EDIT: sorry, but no... it actually glitched up the lockscreen, I pressed the lock key and then I pressed it again... lol the lockscreen was upside-down! Lol, anyways I bet a third party app or player could probably do that
Sent from my HTC Glacier
Thanks for checking into this, did you try the video player from vibrant? I wonder if once we get root can we use that player? (by sticking it in the app drawer?)
Not to ruffle any feathers but you should have posted this in the Themes and Apps sub-forum instead of development. It would probably get more attention and yield you better results there.
Mod please move thread.
Remember guys, questions go in the general section.

We already have root, just not a permanent root, so we cannot apply customization to the ROM

Anything from TW will need extra libs and TW framework. You can try it of course but there's .001% chance that it will work.

Podcasts in WP8

Are they available now that Zune is gone? Can't see them anywhere on my W8 PC so that makes me a bit worried. I should point out I'm in the UK so it could be a location based issue.
Anyone?

The current Windows Phone App for desktop is still listed as being in beta . . . my hope is that in the next week or so, it will be release in its final form, and will include support for podcasts . . . in the meantime, an app like slapdash will allow you to get podcasts directly on the phone, but they don't integrate into the hub

Seems like at the moment we have no integrated podcast support, a large omission by Microsoft imo. Until they have sorted something out I have just downloaded podcasts to see me over, seems to work fine.
Thanks guys, news aren't great then.

Actually, podcasts now are integrated into Store or formally known as Marketplace. Once subscribed, you get them in music app.
