I recently flashed a gingerbread rom (the leaked samsung one) and the stock touchwiz music player was able to remember which tab you were last on (ie, if you were on the artist tab and hit back to exit the app, it would open to the artist tab the next time) the 2.2 music player doesn't do this. does anybody know if the 2.2.1 music player behaves in this way?
I just tried.. nope.
Also 2.2.1 is still froyo 2.3 is gingerbread
thanks for responding.
p.s. Yes I did know that 2.2(.1) is froyo, just curious if they had updated the music app for 2.2.1. By gingerbread I did in fact mean 2.3.

I'm in the process of pulling the Music.apk out of CM5 for the Nexus1, and am going to push it to my Vibrant.
Question though... do I need to remove the current music player (/system/app/MusicPlayer.apk) before I put the CM5 one on there?
Is there anything else I should know before doing this? Thanks!
Curious, whats so good about the CM5 music player that the Samsung one doesnt have?

Well for me, I'd like it so I can use Last.fm scrobble feature. It doesn't support the Samsung one because the api is not supported and the its closed source.
@OP
Yea push it, then debug if it force closes. I'm pretty sure you might need some libs. De compiling the apk, maybe.

Ah, same reason I stopped using the Samsung music app. I love it though, just want Last.Fm support.
I use the music player called "Cubed" as in the math symbol. Its free, supports Last.Fm and is better than the stock music player. Search for it in market under the author "filipe"

I just read the Vibrant5 thread. And eugene included the stock Music player in his rom. Might want to check that out.
Two music apps to choose from

I flashed Eugene's hybrid rom,which didn't have the stock Samsung music player.
I then extracted his Vibrant9 rom and copied and pasted the Samsung apk into system.
I haven't uninstalled the music app,that came with the hybrid rom,but they both work fine.I just prefer the ui from the stock Samsung player.
Hey so any instruction on how to do this. I'm kind of a noob and really like that player...

I would hope that at the very least it can list more than 50 artists. The Samsung player looks nice, but it's a piece of crap for a media-centric phone if it gets overloaded by too much music.
Can anyone who is on 1.6 get the .apk for the stock music player, I really liked the two tab system and no music player that I can find replicated that.
http://mirror2.streakdroid.com/manii/112/update.zip (this is the entire update package)
I dont know which is the music player exactly (or if it requires other support files, it's not simply music.apk) so I cant directly attach the music player.
That's 112 (at&t), check the wiki if you want a different donut build.

Anyone know of they work on the Nexus One? I'm downloading them now.
Camera installed and works but missing the shutter button graphics. Meh
Music App works great.
Desk Clock fails to install. Could be a permission thing.
Gallery 3D FCs when trying to launch.
Cube Livewallpaper works but FC's when opening the settings
I just tried the new Music app this morning. It works. They have official signatures too so it works even on unrooted phones.
The music app seems nice, though it also seems a bit sluggish to me. It will take a few days to know if some of the Music apps annoying bugs have been fixed yet.
I haven't tried the other apps yet, maybe later today. I'm curious what has been changed.
camera nd music work fine (though you will replace the camera app entirely and the prog is a bit crippled regarding options)
gallery-app does not work for me (force closes)
Music works fine, but still has not implemented Gapless Playback and Album Artist classification.
It won't install for me. It just says "Application not installed".
????
is there a way to install these on an unrooted phone without overwriting the original system apps?
Just install as normal. You can't overwrite a system app.
Any remarkable improvement in the new camera app?
I can't find the “Recent” section with album previews and a scrolling wheel feel? Can you guys tell me how to get to it?
Thanks.
Are any of y'all running unrooted stock gingerbread 2.3.3 on your phones? I am and I can only get the gallery to install and it just force closes

Im running stock gingerbread and the music player downloaded and is working just fine. Didn't try the other apps because reading the comments from other users they all had the same result as you.

Thanks for the feedback.
I tried re-installing the gingerbread update and installing the app again but I just got the same results. I had rooted my phone using SuperOneClick when it had Froyo because of internal space issues but when I updated it to Gingerbread there was really no need. It is my understanding the phone becomes unrooted after you install the update right?
I am unrooted 2.3.3, and as I said earlier, the music player won't install. I just get "Application not installed".
Is that what other people are getting?

I got the same error. My problem was that I had the updated music player (Gold Speaker Music App). I went ahead and reflashed the gapps, Giving me the old music app (Blue Speaker Music App), now the the music app installs just fine.
Note this will not replace the Blue Speaker Music App.
After the Leaked Music App was installed, I do not have the Music Sync option in the my Google sync settings that came with the Gold Speaker Music App. I have tried to update to the Gold Speaker Music App after I got the leaked music app working however the Gold Speaker Music App replaced both music apps.
Thought I would add: I was doing this in hopes that I would get the Jumper and the Sync option with the new Leaked Music App, just in case Syncing would start working. Maybe this is the key to get the Google Music Sync to work again and I hope someone smarter than me can figure this out.
Ah, a great thing about the new music player (just installed with no problem on my unrooted N1) is that it works with Voice Search's "Listen To..." option, where the old Froyo one doesn't. Very sweet. "Listen to Paranoid" brought the song right up, and it starts playing, no need to hit any keys. Will be great in the car.
Also seemed to grab an existing playlist I made on my phone using PowerAmp, which also makes me very very happy.
Hello,
Since HC 3.1 (I don't remember with 3.0.1) when i'm listening an album, the music player don't go to the next song when the screen is off. The music stops ! I have to wake up the tablet and then the player goes to the next song. It's quite irritating.
When I google this issue, I find out a lot of threads. This issue is known for a very long time now and for a lot of devices. It's because such issues that the iPad remains the best !
Do you know a fix ?
My tablet is unrooted.
Thanks.
i use KEEP SCREEN to let the screen on.
Some player like meridian player has an option to keep the screen on .
These informations are very interesting. Thanks.
I use nemoPlayer instead of Music, for this very reason.
NemoPlayer (called Acer Media in HC3.2) has the same issue only in 3.2. It's a shame.
3.2 fix default player
But does 3.2 fix the bug for the music player?
don't know !
no 3.2 for instance

Well isn't that special.
Well, maybe I'll buy PowerAMP when the trial is up.
Have you tried my app, Hive Player? The full version has code in it to prevent sleep, it works fine on my Xoom under Honeycomb 3.2.
Hive Player is awesome!
@nfalletta, your app hive player is awesome! It's so fast. I've only tried the lite version so far but if I knew it would fix it I would sell you my firstborn for the full version
I didn't realize that one of the differences between lite and full was sleep prevention. I'll give it a go tonight.
My experiences are as follows:
default music player - will continue for a random number of tracks, usually gets to the end of the second track, then pauses at the end. Pressing lock/power button on side of tablet will wake the screen and playback will resume.
Hive Player lite - stops after about 15 seconds, which probably relates to the lack of sleep prevention code nfalletta mentioned
AcerMedia - behaves almost identically to the default player
sweetness and sunshine
Hive player (full) has been working for over an hour now
@nfalletta, Sweet app, its the first app I've bought, and easily worth it
I have the same issue with Pandora and Tiny Shark.
I'm still trying to figure out how to get them to work w/o having the screen on.

Great, glad to hear it. I was going to also suggest the default (googles music player?) should work fine as well, and has the same method of sleep prevention but I guess not! Some tablets are different I guess and not all apps will run that properly, until a fix is made of course. Thanks for buying Hive Player, I should be releasing an update soon for File/Folder support and track sorting for albums.

That's about time. I've bought it but I'm not using ATM because of the missing track sorting. Also the volume is always zero when I start Hive Player.

Same here. Waiting impatiently an upgrade.
Reviving an old thread, but this hasn't been fixed yet has it?
The last update of music.apk (the stock music player from google) fixed the bug.
I tried v1.14/v2.0 and v2.02 but in every version there is lag, too much lag on music player. I installed almost every music app;poweramp, ics stock one,cm9 app and even 2.3 stock one but music player is laggy and while music is playing i cant even use the keyboard. Anybody to confirm this? or any solutions? And yes , i wiped everything for all 3 versions.
