Fresh 2.1.1 - can't add music to playlist - Hero CDMA General

I've searched the forums and can't find the resolution.
I'm trying to just create a new playlist, and then trying to add music to it. I go to 'add music' and then select the checkbox next to a song, and then I expect the playlist to have that song. Instead, it just says "No Music Found".
If it matters, I'm using apps2sd.

[Q] TouchFlo music by album

Hi
Is it possible to scan through albums on the music player then when you select an album get it to play the whole album.
At the moment, "flicking" just takes me to the next track in the current album.
I can do it via the library but it seems a more intuitive way to flick through your albums on the first screen.
Thanks
Mal
Hi All
Been lurking a while but never posted, but found this thread when searching for the answer to the same question. So instead of typing the same question out I thought I'd bump this up and see if anyone knows the answer? If it's possible at all, that is...?
I'm bumping it up too, I thought I was just overlooking something obvious...
I've looked into this extensively in the past.
As far as I know, there is no way to "flick to next album" in TouchFLO's music player. I wish it were possible.
There is a third-party app that will work similar to iTunes's cover view. However, when I tried it out back in December, it didn't work right for me. Maybe they have improved it by now.
Here is a youtube sample video. It's called S2P player.
If you search the forums here, you'll find it. Google will also bring you to it, however, I don't know which one is the latest updated version. If I find the latest version, I'll post a link here.
EDIT::::::::::::::::
Here is the thread in XDA
Here is the developer's own website
I don't know if it supports WVGA resolution. Edit: yes, there is a version for HD, Xperia etc.. (although it still says VGA).
Okay, I just installed it. It works better now, but it is still buggy. However, here are some downfalls (at least in my case):
1. It does not support using my bluetooth headset.
2. The volume buttons don't work. So, I have to use the application's volume slider to adjust volume.
3. In cover flow, it is not easy to return back to the album you are listening to. The scrolling is sometimes choppy and sometimes way too fast. Hard to control.
4. In cover flow, I cannot adjust volume (since my volume buttons don't work). I have to return to portrait mode to adjust the volume.
5. Navigating through your music is not very user-friendly (other than in cover flow). It's basically a built in folder explorer - so you can't compare it to TFL3D's library. And sometimes that folder explorer window goes blank on me and I have to restart the app.
So, it definitely can use some improvement, but I still like it. I guess it's a bit more eye candy than anything, although it is nice to be able to flick from one album to the next. Maybe I'll use it sometimes, but it definitely won't replace my TFL3D player imho.
Thanks Chris, just thought I was missing something, it least I don't feel stupid now.
My music is currently ordered alphabetically with all the albums mixed together.
How do I set it so that it displays music in order?

In the player's library, you see several tabs at the bottom. The one with the musical note by itself lists "all songs" in alphabetical order. Try a different tab depending on what order you want.
Is that what you meant?

I've selected Library => Album tab => up - which takes me back to the Touch Flo screen.
Ive then used the up \ down arrows to cycle through the tracks and its still in alphabetical order.

What do mean by "up"?
Anyway, while in Album view (don't go to "now playing" just yet).
Tap the album you want to listen to.
Now the songs are listed.
Tap the song you want to start playing.
That album is now your new "now playing" list.
If in step 2, the songs are listed alphabetically and not by track number, it is probably because the mp3 tags for those files don't have a track number entered in them.
Are your mp3 tags well organized?

When you enter the Library, there is an Up option on the left hand side... Now Playing is on the right.

Yep, that kinda works, but it only plays that particular album. It doesn't go onto the next album.
Thanks for the suggestions so far.

Oh okay. On mine it says "Back". I use Dutty's 3.7 ROM.

yeah, that part is annoying. It's not easy to flip from one album to the next in TFL3D. That was the original question in this thread.
What you could do is:
set up a playlist and add the albums you want to it (or only the songs from certain albums).
If you play that list, then it will go from one album to the next
but if you manually want to skip to an album in that playlist, you'll have to enter the library, and choose it from the now-playing list.
Another option (if you will only listen to one artist that has several albums) is:
Go to the Artist tab
select the artist
then in that window, go to the all-songs tab, and tap a song.
The player will now start with that song, but all of the songs from that artist are in your now-playing list.
Yeah, just to confirm, this is something that I also researched for quite some time after TouchFlo came out (specifically being able to flick between albums on the TouchFLO screen itself). Unfortunately, as we've already discovered, it's not possible. The two workarounds that Chris Cross mentions above are the closest you can get to it. As much as I would have loved to be able to do everything in TouchFLO and never have to leave it, I actually ended up turning off the music tab altogether. Since the tab itself is so lacking in features, it was much more worth it to install one of the many other great, free media player apps found here on this forum.

Bugger.
When I first started using Touchflo it played through fine. (Ok, I couldnt flip through albums, but that didnt bother me.)
I then tried to add new mixes to the library, and that messed up the play order.

delete playlist

I have created some play playlists in the music tab.
Now I want to delete a playlist, but I can't find a way to delete.
In the menu, there is only "new" and "play".
What is the right way to delete a playlist?
There must be an easy way to do this... but I can't figure out how to
I found this tread in the diamond forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405545&highlight=delete+playlist
Go to your playlist tab, and press the 'down' hard-key. This should highlight a playlist.
Menu > Delete
this schoul work fine on the diamond, but damn... there is nog 'down' hard-key on the HD. Anyone a suggestion.
You know I thought it was me being a complete idiot not been able figure this out
It seems to me they left that out
I've been looking for a way to clear the "now playing" list so I can use mine for a couple of days now....
Also trying to work out how to get the Album pics on with the music
Anything else work other than windoze media play for us Linux users?
Go into the list of playlists (library->playlists), select a playlist so you can see all the tracks, then don't pick a track, go straight to the 'menu' option, and choose delete.
works for you?

But that is deleting a "created" playlist not the ones shown in "Now playing" eg what you see on the main Music tab. Try removing/clearing the current "now playing"

Q: sense music listing.

is there a way to have it only list my music in my music directory? On default, it show ALL music/sound files. I'm sure I'm missing something simple.
see the "sticky" up top (hints and tips), Im sure it tells you the registry entry to edit to sort that out.......i think....
When I did a search I must've missed that one entry.
"create a folder with your favourites, and set it to "favourite", in the menu.
only the pictures in this folder will shown in the gallery till now.
for music, just create a playlist with the songs you want, and start the first of it, on the playlist. this playlist is active for later on playing."
That's so stupid. I was wondering how I get it to play playlists.. You have to click on one file 1st then it'll show it on the main sense screen

Windows Media Player

I have for the first time used windows media player so I decided to update my libary with all songs on my HTC. Unfortunatly it added every sound on my phone and I need to delete them quick. Should I remove the program then re install itt.
No,the WMP recognize every sound on the phone as i can tell it's just to create ur playlist with the all songs without the sound u don't want them.
If there arent too many you can right click on the song and choose "delete from library", you will be prompted to delete from device also, choose desired option. Tedious but will achieve what you want.

Yes I know this but it will take so long to do them one by one there are hundreds.
Ya....and not to mention that whenever you add a single song, you'll have to re update your library which mean another rounds of deleting those irrelevent sound files all over again and again.............
I don't understand why mobile wmp don't allow one to select a specific folder to play songs from without having to create a playlist and instead have to grab all the audio files from all over the ppc to add into the library.
Would have dump wmp long ago if not because my voice command software can only work with it.

good question, I've been trying to create one ever since i got the phone without any luck. but what i did is not that difficult. I transferred a few playlists from my computer and the work ok.
Creating a playlist on X2 childish easy.
Go to native Windows Media -> Play File -> play it, and than from the Menu ->
Store the Playlist.
So all the files will be stored in playlist, you choose the name.
I made many of them, they all appear on SlideView.
Sorry. Could you elaborate more?I try to fiddling aroung with Media Player(Native) but the Playlist creation is there but when i open slideview and go to playlist, its say no track found.
What my wrong?
My easiest way, install TCPMP and load your favorite files and save the list as m3u-Playlist. Its working for me.
With best reguards

If you actually create playlist it should be in SlideView.
Maybe don't actually create it, do you?
It should be named by yourself....
For me it worked 100%.
I try its by, open media player(native), then open file(either by all folder), then I go to now playing, then again save playlist as what it is.
Then when I go to the slide view, the playlist title is there, but no track found.
I tried to double confirm its again by go to native media player then go to library then again select a playlist, then play, the track is available.
Maybe I miss the important step here, but please do let me know step by step if possible.
I've googling with my friend X1, its more easier with X1 to create the playlist comparing to this X2.
On all my WM mobiles have i Pocket Music Player my last version on my X2 5.3.5.
Great Software,cann Playlist create,Today plugin,Include great Equaliser ...

I'll try to assist tomorrow because I don't use X2 as my main device now.
But you miss something IMO. Which firmware you have?
It is soo simple..
OPen the Windows Media, Menu >> Open file >> Then select files or folder >> It will add the song /songs to the now playing list
then click on "Now playing" (on bottam, next to menu) >> Menu >> Save Paylist..
Regards,
Sujith
My Slide View show there is Playlist name,but no track
