Just wondered if anyone else found this patch

What patch :?:
:?: The Magician plays mp3-ringtones by design. No patch required.
That's true, but no alarm tones. You can only use wavs for that. There are many applications which provide this feature, like WolfClock. I don't know if there's a patch available for this.
could you share a link plz

Yeah mine did until i installed betaplayer, after that it doesnt show mp3's when you try to change your ringtone. Uninstalling betaplayer resulted in no application being able to play mp3's. This suggests to me a file association problem but I have no idea how to solve it. Unlike 'regular' Windoze where you can assign associations fairly easily, mobile edition doesnt seem to be able to do this. Unless someone can come up with a better idea it looks like Im in for a long trawl through the registry
I did this with Winampaq on my XDA2. There is no way to re-associate the files with media player short of a hard reset. Microsoft really dodn't do much testing on this OS at all.
I found this but havent tried it.
been using it for ages, lets you set MP3 rintones from tap and hold menu, copies them...the whole file, to your windows\rings directory and sets as default ringtone.
Speedn

You should take a look at Resco File Explorer which can do exactly this.

Thanks for the tip, I will have a look at that app.
My main gripe tho is that I prefer GSplayer or Betaplayer to Media Player but when I install either one I lose the ability to use MP3's for ringtones, it seems that the phone will only allow MP3 ringtones using the WM engine (or I have missed something)
after installing any 3rd party mp3 program you need to reassociate mp3 files with windows media player to get mp3 ring tones to work correctly.

Thanks people...The app works just fine...THIS is what I had been searching...
I installed the NoteM program but since it crashed I uninstalled. The problem is that not all my mp3 ringtones are not working anymore.
In any file explorer the mp3s have no icon and when I tried to launch one I had to choose the program (wmp10). Now mp3 are opened with wmp10, I can listen to them, but the they have still the default unknown extension icon , not the wmp10 icon (in any file explorer). Also they are not working as ringtones either
Can anyone help, plz? I don't want to hard reset the device for now
NoteM did that to everybody. Only solution found so far is a hard reset. I tried using a program called pocket tweak to manually associate it with wmp. No luck though. I can associate mp3s with other programs and still have them function as ringtones, so i'm not sure that that is even the problem. It probably changes something in the registry that nobody has figured out yet.
I had the same problem when i install the pocket music player. Anybody has the the same problem with me?

Aparently pocketmusic associates the mp3 extensions to him.
Try to uncheck the mp3 extension in its preferences, it might work then.
yes, but then what's the point of having pocket music installed if the default player for mp3 is still the windows media player.
I don't think its a problem with the associations. I have my mp3s going to mort player with no ringtone problems.

well, it's just necessary for pocket music to be unassociated to work
it's either that or you'll have to find another means for the ringtones
i don't see why you can't just open the mp3s inside pocket music
I can confirm it's an association issue.
I installed pocket player and it took the association from Windows Media Player for mp3's. For 2 days I could not figure out why mp3 ringtones stopped working. Then I changed the association setting for mp3 back and everything works fine.
Unless you use your pocket pc in some strange way i can't see why any music app needs to take over the association. To play mp3's I click on the pocket player icon on my today screen and then choose a playlist or album folder to listen to. I don't click on a single mp3 file.
Anyway try that it should fix your problem and not have any after effects.
Checking again, I agree. mine are still associated with wmp. I was just accessing them with mortplayer.
No Sound after installing Pocket Music
Hello,
I had the same problem when installing Pocket Music (no more MP3 ring tones) so I uninstalled it and linked the MP3 to WMP again but the problem is still here.
My problem is even much more important, my speaker are not working so no sound (playing MP3, phone call ...). My only way to have sound is to use my hand free hearings but the Qtel9100 is not making any more sound and on the phone calls, I can't speak and can't listen if not using hearings ???
PLEASE HELP ...
I tryed to restore my PDA but the problem of micro not working is still here. I can't even talk to someone calling me. I think about doing a hard reset but i don't know how to do it ?
Hi,
Basic question. I have .wav files emailed to me from my home voice mail, but Windows Media does not support this format. Is there a program I can use to play them?
Thanks!
WMP doesnt support .wav?? :shock:
I've found the same - I think some WAV's play but it depends on the codec used. You should find that TCPMP will play your WAV's though.
See http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/about
Thank you!

Thanks for the help, that did the trick!
Hi to all,
any one have a freeware MP3 player for Imate kjam. i got one, but the bit is fast. if I play music, it s like your are playing a rap songs.

Try TCPMC (do a google search)...its not made specficially for mp3s as it can play just about any media type, but its good.
There is MortPlayer (http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=11423), but I have never used it so I cannot comment on it.
Hope that helps.

Hello, my name is Fernando.
First of all, I apologize for my english, but my natural speak is Spanish.
I have a problem with the HTC HD2 music player HD2 since I bougt it 2 weeks ago.
When try to playing a song from any album with the player, I see the spinning circle in the upper left corner.
Please, seek a video of that in YouTube called "HTC HD2 music player stop after a few seconds" (I can't post it 'cause I'm a new user ...)
I assume that is seeking changes and updating the music library. After a few seconds (30 approximately) the music stops and can’t access the library. Even in landscape view, the library is empty (see video on the end part).
I searched help into this site and various others forums on the Internet, and I found many people with the same problema, but no effective solution.
The files are stored in “Storage Card \ Music \ Artist \ Album” folder structure, and they are called “01 - TrackName_AlbumName_ArtistName.mp3” structure.
My phone has the following software characteristics:
(Please see pic attached)
I have made many unsuccessful trials to solve this mistake, I will try to list all of them:
• Updating or changing ROM versions to 6.5.3 , 6.5.5 and 6.5 (actually running 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE version from laurentius26, that is excelent by the way)
• Update Manila version
• Update Radio version
• Format memory card (8 GB) with the PC in Disk Storage mode.
• Format memory card (8 GB) since the included HTC HD2 Format SD Card app.
• Conversion of all audio files to MP3 format 192 Kb / s (no WMA files)
• Tag all files to ID3v2.4 UTF-8
• Put a file called folder.jpg in each audio folder with the correct front album cover disc (all albums are showing it correctly)
• Change the length of the audio MP3 filenames (shortest names for test)
• Change the folder of the files locations (put all in the root folder of the SD Card for test)
• Delete the file located into “Application Data \ HTC \ AudioManager_Eng” and called “AudioManager_Eng.vol” several times to be generated again when start the player for first time.
But nothing Works !!! …the software always stops after a few seconds of use.
At this moment I'm using another software called S2P v0.80 beta to play music, it has the iPhone's style and works very well, but has some mistakes handling the hearphones' HTC remote control, and the audio quality is not as good as Sense version because S2P uses WMP….
Can anyone help me please? I am desperate to fix this ... 'cause I use the phone for music player mainly and is impossible to do it with this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Can you play the media in the windows media player?
If that works then an application you have installed has caused the problem.
For me it was tomtom(the edited version that fixes bluetooth) it broke my HTC media player.
The only way to work out which one is to factory reset the phone so it works.
Then reinstall your apps 1 by 1 till it breaks again.
[Deleted!]
try refreshing using total commander.. path to the storage card, refresh a few times, soft reset.. generally works
This problem occurs when htc music tab is unable to update album art. Please check wheter there's a read-only file in the directory. Uncheck read-only box and run album art updater, you should of course have a connection to internet. I had the same problem both with my hd and hd2 but after clearing the read-only status of the files, I 'm able to play them as I love to do with my music tab....
this is how i solved it. convert everything to wma.

S2P with SRS WOW and good sound cancelling ear phones sounds just as good as Sense Music Player. The key is SRS WOW.

Yes, media can be played with the WMP. But the problem isn't caused by any installed application. I'm burned the phone with every new ROM listed above, and then inmediatally try the media tab and the problem continue.

Mmmm ... no ... no really, I have got installed SRS wow and Audio Booster and comparing sounds, the HTC Tab has better bass and clarity sound. I'm not using the original HTC hearphones, instead I'm using an AKG ones (don't remember the exact model) and the difference in sound is appreciable !

Yeah !
Now is working ... I'll testing for a few days, because in the past in one opportunity, I don't know how or why, the player works a few days with no problems with the MP3 files library and then stop working suddenly.
Cons: I have all my music library in my main HTPC in MP3 format ...
I will post again in a few days with results.
Thanks !
Well, I was testing for a few of days the HD2 tab player after convert all my library to .wma format, and everything was OK, the stopping music effect was solved.
Thanks to everyone.
same problem
what software did u use to convert all your library to wma?
,
i also have the same problem, and Im just so desperate to find an answer for it...
i think this solution works, but i have no idea how to convert my library to wma
the only that you need to do is to transfer the music to your hd2 only with windows media player via active sync,but first:erase completely the music map in you sd card,make a copy of the sd,format the sd with the phones program(you kan found under windows start>tools)put back all to the sd and make a new music map,ready!!you can start to transfer music!!I have a 16gb sandisk with more than 1600 tracks in mp3 and aac and no problems any more!I speak spanish to so, if you want you can make a private question if you need some help,saludos
I had a similar problem to this where it would stop playing a song after a few seconds then refuse to play anything else. I can't remember the exact program I used, but to fix it I ran an MP3 error checker through my music library, which fixed some corrupt files that were preventing the rest from playing. Has worked fine since I did it about a month ago.

You can use Switch Audio Converter (free on basic mode, but works fine)from http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html or dBpoweramp from http://www.dbpoweramp.com/ (15 days trial, but faster than the other).

I tried this before, but it didn't work for me. Only conversion to .WMA format solved the problem.

Hi
I Have the same problem with Manila's Music Player...
but there is a thing and that is that I have changed all my music tags with a specific program (Mp3Tag I think...). the question is do I have to make all tags again if I convert all of my MP3's to WMA?
and I have another problem which is so annoying indeed!!!
if I hadn't have any phone calls since my last soft reset there is no problem but when I make a phone call or answer an incoming call after finishing the call when I lock the screen while listening to a track the music pauses after about 3 seconds!!! and actually it is independent from listening music with sence music tab or Windows Media Player !
both has same problem...
is there any solution???
First, try to convert all your library to WMA format, tags will not be lose. Try downloading Switch Sound File Converter from http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html, it is free.
Maybe, this process solve the last problem explained about shutdown music after calls.
Im sorry, converting to WMA just is not a solution, you shouldnt have to, the player can play MP3s, and so it should play them well. Mine has only recently started doing this (latest energy rom) it has never done it before
