Manilla 2.5 Music Player - suggestion... - HD2 General

Hi, just wondering, is it possible for the Now Playing section of the Manila 2.5 muisc player tab, to have the "aplhabet list" on the side, as in "A, B and C" etc listed (like when viewing contacts list of phonebook) so you can easily jump to artists/tracks by pressing their first initial?

I'm looking for that as well! I haven't found any solution though :S

+1 to this. I love the HTC Sense music player, but this is the one thing missing for me.
Please can someone help

Yeah there have been a couple threads created asking this same question, not sure if it is even possible. I don't understand why HTC didn't add that to the Sense player.

thanks for the feedback people,
hopefully someone with a bit of tecnhical 'know-how' could lend a hand!

Could A Mod Plz Delete This Thread? :)

Okay guys, this is the new official thread for the native version of Melody media player. Let's decide on a name, once that is done, I'll create a proper first page, with a bit more coherence regarding the .NET version.
So far, I've come up with Melody++ (Stemming from the fact that this version is written in C++).
LastNikita, has further suggested, just giving it a 2.0 version suffix. Any more suggestions? Let's not keep too long on this though .
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Due to the fact that iMelody already has a connection to another application, or in this case, a file format, the 2nd place winner of the above poll will assume the official winner of the poll.
CMelody
iMelody! Why not? Put i in front of any name, and your ready!
Just simply "Melody Plus"?
pocketMelody !
Just put 'pocket' in front of anything!

yep. iMelody sounds about right....
Lovemelody
Lovemelody Or Shadowmelody
MeloPlus (combine the melody and "+")
xmelody (the x is seem like +, and that mean extra, excellent)
tmelody (T is stand for Touch, that mean you can use your finger to touch and control the Melody. Maybe the logo design can make the letter t seem like "+", cause this version is written in C++)
sorry for my poor english
Melody III: Return of the King and the Slaying of the Flash Dragon.
one media player?
Like the new thread btw
and the idea of asking us like i suggested..
x
Quick question..
Chad have you thought about using the itunes library to play the music and read is3 tags [or whatever itunes calls them] as this would save us the trouble of using another prog to get the art...
just a suggestion
x
meloPlayer
shadowplayer or thunderplayer (ur ninkname )
also
xdaPlayer in honor of this great site
CoolMelody
My thought.
Some more ideas
mePLUS or MePLUS
mediaPLUS or medPLUS
myplus or MyPLUS [m-elod-y PLUS]
apart from these i really liked the iMelody mentioned here, but iMelodyPLUS would be great then again
Hah, when i looked at "remove programs" thingie i saw the name "Thundershadow's Melody" Which must be the most awesome name ever.
melodyFX
;D
I too agree with pocketMelody if this name seems long then xMelody

[INTERFACE] PointUi Home 2

Hi,
Just thought I'd start a post to see what people think of this interface. Personally I love the stock TF3D for the diamond and have just added nocurtains and backgroundallpages to it and I cant wait to get the TF3D from Diamond2 onto my phone, but Im always trying out new interfaces to improve usability - I still hate going into windows mobile contacts, messaging, etc.
From testing it seems to have no bugs that I can recall so far (tested of HTC Diamond running Duttys latest version - btw, thanks to dutty: having been using your ROMs for a long time and have always been happy ). Overall customisation seems a lot easier than for TF3D and new 'applets' are being pumped out all the time. You can even 'flick' through all messages with a preview for all inboxs without getting into the windows mobile interface, although you have to enter it to read the full email or to reply/forward. Im sure that improvements will get rid of this in the future though.
Anyways Im adding it on here because Im sure some people will like it and you dont get developers better than those on XDA so maybe we can make it into something really usable?
The only things keeping me on TF3D at the moment are the lack of multiple cities in weather forcasting, lack of music playback from the home screen (no music app currently available) and perhaps a home screen applet that is a little fiddly.
Nevertheless the experience is very slick - no pauses or 'stuttering' in transitions. I will keep testing but let me know about your experiences .

There are already several threads here on XDA about Home2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459706

I know there is also one in the Xperia forum...
Bug reporting is done in a thread over at the PointUI forums.
SMS works fine for me on Home2.
Looked interesting, but whenever I hit "home" on my diamond it went to a black, blank home screen. Also no built in media player applet yet. I usually listen to music for about 30-45 mins in the morning, and I don't want to fiddle with the classic media player.

I am aware that pointui development forums are everywhere right now, but thought it would be nice to see what diamond users think - i still think that after diamond2, the interface and usability of diamonds/touchpros is probably the best around for windows mobile.

Yea I know the lack of music is a bit annoying, but I think an applet for it is in development, and considering the throughput of these things at the moment I dont think it will be long before one is released .
Did you disable TF3D and enable Pointui from settings? Also is you TF3D the stock one or is it another one (e.g. Pro version)?
has anyone experienced crashes with it? it worked fine when I first installed on my diamond, now when I open, or soft reset and it loads, I get the RSS hub thing, but it stops spinning, and just crashes, and phone requires soft reset.

(REQ) "Letter-scrollbar" in Music Player!

Hi guys
Really love my HD2... Nice hardware, nice software (with help from cooks) etc.
I have one problem though... The music player!
Im one of those who LOVE music... And lots of it
The problem is related to how you navigate to artists etc... Its so slow! I mean its totally smooth, but the fact that you have to slide your finger for like 10 sec, to get to the bottom, (If you have a lot of music) is a pain... On the iPhone there is a "Letter-scrollbar", from where you can QUICKLY slide to the first letter of the artist you want to hear
There actually also is on the HD2!..... In the "all people" tab! EXATLY what I want is on the HD2, but in the wrong tab (Well its actually also kind of handy to have in the "all people" tab, so no complaints there )
My question/request is: Is it possible, for some hacker extraordinaire, to take the "letter-scrollbar" from the "all people" tab, and implant it in the Music Player. In the artists section preferably
Hope sombody can pull it off!
(I also posted this in the "application" section)
Bump! .......
+1
Loved this on the iphone
+1 I totally agree, since I use my phone as my primary music player
agree, this would be indeed very usefull!
would be very useful
Thanks for the support for this feature.. Guess we have to wait for someone to actually pull some magic out of his/her sleeve..
+1 Bump I would love to see this happen

I love HTC sense music player this is the one little thing missing. Please help
It's something that is definately needed for the music player, also a search function is something really needed
any update on this? a search would be Great instead of Scroll thru 1500 songs :-(
install pocket player...that is the only work around
+1 & Search function please
+1 for this, although I have pocket player installed just for this reason.....its also a very nice looking music player too tbh..

The second sentence is very funny to me. The only thing missing!!!
I also like the Sense Music Player--its integration into Sense, the very cool cover art display in Landscape Mode, etc.
I also agree that it would be nice when scrolling to have letters at the side to help scrolling through a long list.
What is funny to me is "the only thing missing", as I have had several very serious problems with the Sense Music Player. It is extremely buggy. (This thread isn't the place to discuss all the problems though, as it is about the letter-scrollbar, and I will join in on that request.) (More important to me, though, would be if someone could fix the serious multiple database problems with the app.)
+1 for that

touchflo Help

all i want to do is have the music tab take me to WMP instead of the one it takes me to now. or add a tab that takes me to WMP??? what the heck
Those of us who are familiar with TouchFlo3D/Manila/or Sense would know and agree that the interface's functionality is difficult to customize. Some people want a Facebook tab, some want a Tasks tab, etc. I've yet to see someone actually successfully implement custom tabs.
Anyway, my advice to you is this: disable the Music tab. Then just have a shortcut to WMP near the top of your Start Menu. So, 2 taps to get to WMP...
CORRECT!
thats what i did for now. start menu and placed WMP at the top. thats cool cause i just updated to 6.5 so i have a back up ROM now. PLEASE PRAY FOR ME! im goin to change the HSPL and update to a cooked ROM i saw here with 3 shortcust on the today screen its nice.......
***Off topic if ne 1 has 6.5 cab we make a cab for the themes on today its the R&R tower with a mic. that is really nice but it only shows on some screens??? if i use HD wallpaper will this work? i didnt think so but ?? thanks
***&^%$^&$# UPDATE !!!! WOOOOOOHHHHHHOOOOOOO
1st Hard SPL SUCCESS ! im cited cant wait to ROM it ^ !! THANKS XDA AND IT FAMILY !
Hi, does anyone know hot to get TouchFlo 3d back to its original self? I downloaded the msn style slider and its taken all the original settings away. It doesant show the tabs pictures etc. Plz help!!

[solution] Music Tab and/or WMP Skips Each Song (SYS Related?)

I dont know this guys but this is annoying..
From last 3 builds 23563,66,68 i have strange problem in manila in music tab when i play the songs it keep on next songs one by one very fast even without playing single of them...
plz help..
* Mod EDIT *
Additional details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6430024&postcount=7
finally i got the solution..
its the mega audio manager that act madly..
i just change that to IOLITE stuff and i got the dream rom..
happy days
mmmm
try to recmod the media modules...
if not works... there is a skiping fix for WMP around, in a cab
but before that i have no problem..
this things r come in to reality by 23563 and higher build????
i dont know.. i dislike to use manilla in my roms worst the mega manilla is huge for my poor hermes... but nobodys has this issue at least one manilla user say so... too
If you're going to try out different modules, don't re-cook the rom, just convert them to files and add them to your windows folder with total commander and soft reset. It's a lot easier to de-bug things that way, and less frustrating than re-cooking/re-flashing, and still having the same issue.
But, I'd just follow Q's advice and send manila to the recycle bin.
but all u know guys that even i m consistently build rom without manilla people from htc elf demanding more and more manila flavour
so i have to..
Music Tab Problem! SYS Related? [CHEFS PLEASE HELP!!!]
Hi, Ive just finished my rom build and I have noticed a problem I am having with the music tab, Im not sure if its due to that amount of music I have loaded on my sd card or not but I never noticed it before, I have however just updated to the 23568 SYS but that cant be the problem as SYS has nothing to do with the manila music package.
When the rom loads for the first time after flashing, if you go onto the music controls, it scrolls through all the songs super quick until it gettings down to the song name furthest down the alphabet, and then pressing play does nothing what so ever. And so if you then go into the library and pick a song from an album, again it will zo down to the last song in that album.
I have tried using the manila music package from 2.10 and 2.11 (even though they are the same) and I have disabled the taskbar which I was having problems with in terms of not displaying a speak icon in the taskbar, then it loosing the htc volume control, but still it does this glitch. I switched back to an old taskbar I was using and that made no difference either so it must be something new, I am now cooking with the backup kitchen I made yesterday which still has a 23566 SYS just to see...
EDIT: I have just cooked it with and without the 23568 SYS, with it I had the music problem, so I am assuming they are related
Has anyone run into this problem before? is it an easy fix? I did some searching but nothing turned up
Thanks in advance

Hmm weird, I was thinking maybe its a codec issue? and its skippig through all the songs as it cant play any.
You say WMP, do you mean windows media player? cus I mean manila music tab. I saw in your thread it was suggested to recmod the media files, which ones are they in the sys?

Thought I had sent both of you a PM indicating the merge ... my bad, sorry.
As the issue you both described seems to be related, I merged the two threads and adjusted the title.
Regards,
solution found...
i also have this problem
I think its codecs issue because i can play some of audio files and I have this issue with videos also skiping very fast
I have tried anther mediaos package but same thing
before I can solve it by disabling mlu service in 23553
but now nothing happen even with disabling mlu service or <mul service > ithink
cheers
This iussues it's related to audiomanager from mega, it's happen when you try to cook a rom with manila including this version of audiomanager.
