New Pandora App - Xoom General

Just noticed there is a new pandora app in the market that also works with Xoom Wifi and it also includes resized album art. May be other things too but just downloaded. No more need for nook apk.

[Q] PowerAmp on the Xoom with Album Art Question

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to say that PowerAmp on the Xoom is pretty solid app for listening to music. It hasn't been overhauled for Xoom yet but the interface works really well on the Xoom and looks rather nice. It has a really nice equalizer and the ability to automatically search for album art.
I do have a video that overviews the app. So check it out.

What would be nice if the album art it does find for my music would also be available to the default music app. Currently the found album art that PowerAmp downloads only is shown in the PowerAmp App itself. Maybe there is a easy hack or app that could be made to get this working. I'll look into this but just in case does anyone already have a solution?

i was thinkin the same exact thing. i also use poweramp and would love to see the downloaded album pics on the stock music app as well.
lost ability to see mnt/external in PowerAmp after 4g upgrade
Have any of you other PA users noticed the same? Any fix ideas? Tried installing the new PA beta,but same issue that only folders within mnt/sdcard/ directory show up.

Leacked Camera, gallery, desk clock and Music app...

Please find the attached test version of leacked camera, gallery, deskclock and music player.
Install at your own risk, I have just shared so we all can get a feel what is in store...
Camera & Gallery didn't work for me
Music player works perfectly
and i didn't try desk clock
This isn't only for the Desire HD.
For me and my Desire, running Oxygen Gingerbread 2.0.3, only the music app and the camera app is working. Camera app only works with taking fotos, not with making videos.
I tried to remove the original deskclock app and replaced it with the leaked one, but it doesn't work. Get's a forceclose every time and so the new gallery app does.
Yea this have been leaked a few hours and every thread for most phones have it on now but some work and some doesn't be nice if someone could get them working for us

New Music/Clock/Camera/Gallery Apps

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/04/05/download-new-android-music-play-3-0-336/
http://www.droid-life.com/2011/04/0...y-desk-clock-and-cube-wallpaper-android-apps/
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
This is unrelated but I tried the leaked skype w/ video app from droid-life.com and it wouldn't install either.
Im on 2.3.3 unrooted. music.apk is working and installed gallery.apk n it fc every time

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.

Downloaded Video widget app

Is there an widget that will allow me to see which downloaded movies I have on my tablet in Thumbnail view.
Check out "Mizuu" from Android Market.
Thanks it is what I was looking for I had it before and love it.

apps i like for this phone

so i was thinking to start some conversation here by listing some apps i like and having you guys list stuff you like. i want this to be mostly about like system apps replacements (music players, launchers, etc.)
to start, i use nova launcher, and i actually bought prime a couple weeks ago. amazing launcher if you've never tried it before.
for a music player, i use Omich Player (can be downloaded here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.omichsoft.player)
this is a really fast, simple music player that kinda looks like the really old versions of Google Play Music, but without any of the cloud crap and it's free. unfortunately it doesn't have gapless playback for me (but anything using the android music API on ICS doesn't have gapless) and i'm not a huge fan of pirating apps on android (malware gets spread pretty easily through cracked APKs)
next up, for a file manager, i use the OI File Manager (can be downloaded here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.openintents.filemanager)
ever since i had cm7 i really liked this file manager, even though it doesn't have root permissions, but it's simply one of the best solutions out there. nice, clean interface, easy to use, open source, and it just works really well. the latest version has some UI glitches every now and then, but i hardly use it anyway so it's fine. file managers are just nice to have around, especially this one.
oh and there's also the obvious titanium backup with pro version (you need the pro version, it's seriously gimped without it)
media player: aimp got android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aimp.player
file browser:ES file explorer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop
skin: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mycolorscreen.themer
video: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro can actually play 720p mkvs
weather Wunderground https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wunderground.android.weather THE BEST weather app ever seriously try it ..
backup: twrp recovery lol
Launchers......Nemus, Nova, or LauncherPro
Music.............. Shuttle, Music Ocean(file share)
