Hi guys. Since I bought my DHD I was looking for a better Music player - the stock one was ok but i missed some stuff coming from an ipod touch. Then I found this one: PlayerPro, and its even better than an ipod
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tbig.playerpro&feature=search_result
The only thing lacking was SRS/Dolby support so i went on their forums and asked for it. And shortly after that the Dev emailed me and said he was working on it^^ Never happened to me before He's a really nice guy. Anyway so I helped him with betatesting and now this Player has full SRS/Dolby support on the DHD!
And a ton of other features too! Volume buttons for Track next/prev support, Headset controls, load covers from the net, different views, full playlist support and and and and. Even a pretty good video player is on board
I know this sounds like an advertisement and the player costs a little something but i just want to inform. No financial interest.
cheers!
Hehe PowerAmp is good I also like the stock player! I'll download the trial for this program xD
Yeah, playerpro has been my player of choice for ages now. I have tried a few, inclusive poweramp and in my opinion it leaves all others light years away.

PlayerPro is also my player of choice! Great app with lots of potential and nice design
The funny thing is: I came from stock (with Dolby) to PlayerPro on Froyo because of the equalizer plugin which was way better than the PowerAMP one. Then I was going nuts because O2 Germany didn´t release the gingerbread update (build in and powersafing equalizer) - so I made a goldcard and flashed ARHD. (it was definitly worth it!) And now after happily using ARHD + PlayerPro + build in equalizer, SRS is back I´m realy happy, because this enhances my daily music hours even more!
Thank you for asking and helping the dev
I love the player, it's much better then the stock but I only have one complain, that's lack of good integration of music control in the lock screen.

PlayerPro is the best one XD
I hope they'll integrate google music in it when google publish API for it XD

Been using PlayerPro since my HTC Desire. Its great, thanks for the update on the extra sound enhancement, have been using Muiu Music Player since using Miui based ROM for the past few weeks. IMO, PlayerPro has the best album information and album art organisational system, very simple to use...the best part is the super smooth scrolling of the album art...got to get back onto it! =D

Have spent a bit more time working on Live Wallpapers, and the newest one pulls your album art and shows it on the home screen, a bit like the screensaver OS X comes with.
It's still early days but all seems to work fine, and I'm looking for a couple beta testers who'd be willing to give it a shot before I release it onto the Market.
Features:
* Accesses your Android album art library (if you see it in Music Player, you see it here...
* Very fast (approx 0.5 seconds on first load)
* Smooth scrolling between screens
* Periodically changes individual covers
* Opaque setting to make pale text easier to read.
Any suggestions appreciated, hope to have it on the Market by tomorrow night if beta testing doesn't throw up any show-stoppers.
Posting over here because it's just occurred to me that this might be totally incompatible with HTC's Music Player and I need to test it on the Desire. Beta copies go to the first two people to reply to this thread. YOU MUST BE RUNNING THE STOCK HTC ROM!
Up! Running on stock Android 2.1 on Desire A8181.
im using stock and have htc desire with lots of tracks
shizen!
just a few min's late.
looks killer tho! ill keep an eye out for the release
im running froyo on desire, if u need a froyo bet tester
like the concept of it. and it works really nice. i like the androids that appear when no album art is found. widgets and icons would be hard to see if not for these. looks better with large sense digital clock imho. gonna try this out tommoz at work. just hope it doesnt burn battery out too much as on a trip.
so yeah it works on sense. not noticed any bugs. cheers
Im running stock 2.1 on my desire. When will it be released in the market?

Hey Mr Developer, I really like this live wallpaper concept Have you abandoned this project or not?
So it seems like the Samsung music app isn't compatible with any scrobblers, as far as I know. It's a real shame too, because I really enjoy the lock-screen controls, and it's a fairly decent music player. It's a lot smoother and prettier than the scrobbling-solution that I have in place for now, DoubleTwist.
The response from the last.fm forums doesn't seem to indicate that last.fm will be the ones to apply the solution, and SLS is rather quiet lately. I don't know where to begin contacting Samsung, but Android devs are more likely to get to the root of this.
Anyway, it would be really nice if someone could help fix this. I'm no developer, the best I can do is make some noise or a donation, but I'd really like to see scrobbling support on our Galaxy S music players.
I agree. It would be nice. Although, worst case, when CM6 is released for the phone, I can have the old music player back and scrobbling will work once again
I AGREE! The Samsung music app is pretty slick, wish scrobbling would work though.
just grab the music.apk from CM5.0.8 for the nexus. works like a charm for me, especially since the samsung music doesn't have a desktop widget that works on any of the other launchers as far as I can tell.
Ouch. I just noticed this myself. I wonder if the samsung music player is proprietary...

Forget the stock android music app or Samsung app, checkout the music app "Cubed" (as in cubed symbol). Search for "filipe" in the market. Cool music app, looks great on the Vibrant and it has built in last.fm scrobbling.

Yeah, I ended up using cubed after hearing good things about it on this forum. It looks quite amazing, and works rather well, unlike how cover flow usually end up being useless.

Hi Guys.
I recently bought a HTC Desire S, and is pretty thrilled about it, meaning both the android OS, and the HTC Sense UI.
But - HTC Sense doesn't support ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec), which sucks for me bigtime, as I think the Sense-music player is as good as it gets, pretty much. And, since much of my music is in that format.
I also use HTC Sync to put music on my device, which is pretty smooth because of the iTunes-playlist support.
I know there is a bunch of other players on the market (currently using poweramp), that could solve my problem, but I would prefer using the Sense-musicplayer, because of it's simplicity and smooth UI.
In other words, please don't just advise me to use another app, since I'm already aware they're available
My question is then;
Is there a way to get HTC Sense to support ALAC-playback??
Peter, Denmark
Alright after a week of testing. Heres the rundown.
Stock Features you will miss:
Enhanced Contacts.
Motion Gestures.
HW Accelerated Browser
The Cam. MIUI isnt as good.
Battery life.
MIUI features you will miss if you're hooked:
Firewall
Guard
App lock
Themes
UI. duh.
Elegance.
Overall verdict is wait a bit. MIUI can be better. The MIUI contacts isnt good either.
Oh and Stock Cam vs MIUI Cam.. whats better?
Use skifta instead of allshare and wi fi file explorer instead of kies.
Tw camera is better.

There has to be some Pros and Cons in AOSP ROMs over Stock ROMs. Customisations, speedy UI etc are better but on the other hand there are some simple yet impotent things aren't available or buggy! Why would one buy Samsung on first place and then suddenly they want to get rid of Samsung junk? A little bit of iOS, little bit of Android, I hate it anyway.
I have frozen literally everything all the Samsung bloatware that can be frozen, i think ive used Kies like once, it's a crock of sh*t anyway buggy as hell, allshare is a serious battery drainer too, why do people still use this rubbish then complain about serious battery drainage?
I love all MIUI stuff but I dislike the battery draining, camera is not good and video playback is so poor 'cause Hw aceleration is not working... Ignoring that, I prefer a lot this even over the perfect stock rom, 'cause I can personalize everything.
I've had a look and play with miui and cm7 nightly #99 lately.
Still like Samsung's roms better. To me they just seem more polished. Camera, calendar, etc, add jkay mods in there too.
Also find music sounds better for me on Samsung roms. That surprised me.
I pick cm7 over miui by a mile.
I must be missing something about miui because i didnt see anything to make me use it over Samsung or cm7.

Miui UI is better than stock...
Gotto wait until Miui rom fully functional only can compare i believe.

I've tried CM7 and it's pretty nice especially with all of the themes and it is incredibly fast, however I love TouchWiz! Good Widgets, great camera app, smoothest launcher (IMO), and of course the best browser on any Android device.

About this, in MIUI you just have to press volume down+menu. Pretty easy IMO...
About everything else im with you, but let me add one more con about MIUI: Call recording doenst work. Not the stock app but neither "CallRecorder" app.
Since this is an important feature for me, I hope they manage to fixed it because I really like MIUI.
Every now and then, i fill that urge to try MIUI or Cyanogen, and after a day or two, i am back to Samsung ROMs ...
1.I've been modifying my framework and TW launcher since my i9000 and i have made my personal setup from it
2.Video codecs support, although recently i've found Dice player who looks extremely capable, even more than the default one
3.The small little things, like brightness swipe on status bar, call and message swipe on contacts and some others that doesn't come to mind right now
4.Like someone else stated, i also like the cohesion of the stock ROM
There are some things that always bothered me that Samsung doesn't implement in it's ROMs like percentage battery and BLN. I mean, those are are easy to do, add functionality and they blend well with stock ..., but luckily, this is Android and we can do it ourselves .

Now that MIUI have officially launched the S2 ROM. I tried it. I used to use the Litening ROM. So far there have been PROS and CONS. Some neat features that I love that I dont wanna go back. But there are some minor things which I can't live without either.
I will be updating this thread with Pro and Cons with you guys support.
Stock ROM features I miss:
The Motion Gestures. In Gallery and on Launcher. I think that was TouchWiz 4.0... right?
Kies and AllShare. I would love to have those two. SGS2 is the only Android device out there with DLNA support and would be a shame to cut it out. --There are alternatives. WifiFile Explorer. And Upnplay.
The easy screenshots like iOS.
Swype support. I sideloaded Swype but looks like I cant switch themes. And the Official Swype installer on MIUI says the resolution isn't supported. Weird. -- It works.
The Camera App. For some weird reason I think the MIUI Cam has flaws. -- Still looking for an alternative. Gonna checkout TW Camera.
And this may be stupid but MIUI doesnt show H+ icons. Just H. (Network icon) -- Think themes can fix this.
MIUI Features I love:
The torch. Pretty neat, you can use it by pressing the Home Button.
The UI and themes. Obvious
The Music App Lyrics
You can lock specific apps. And even hide them.
The Guard feature. Now I can give my phone to anyone w/o worrying bout them snooping.
Status: Back to Stock. MIUI has Battery drain issues.

There are alot of devices come with DLNA. Atrix for example.

and the only thing stock vs Miui i care is the internet browser in stock rom that comes with hardware accelerated. And also the long press edit for search is imssing in MIUI.
What I can't live without is the to out support via MHL missing from all aosp roms.

Hey guys, has anybody developed a ROM that is completely geared towards music, or does it even exist? I listen to music almost every hour of the day and I love music more than anything, but I was wondering if there was such thing as a ROM that was geared towards music. Meaning, it has a really great music app, and it is all completely integrated within the ROM, like how Cyanogenmod has DSP manager and the volume buttons to change the song, or how you can change the song in the notification menu on ICS ROMs. So basically, are there any ROMs that have a TON of these music related tweaks and has a really good as well as smooth music app?
well with Beats now available for most UI instead of just for Sense, people will have their different opinions. no, there isnt a specific "music rom". but thats where music widgets and themes come in. I listen to a lot of music as well, and my current setup is CyanogenMod 7.2 using PlayerPro/DSP pack (not DSPManager, the one included with the ROM), and no Beats(never really liked it). IMO its one of the best music players, you can tweak the EQ levels to your likings, and has a useful swipe gesture. been using it for months, well worth the purchase
The market has a few apps that may help tweak your sound settings.. Beats is more of a money making thing to advertise the beats headphones.. Nothing to fancy..

Lol...I added beats to the arhd 3.0 port. Now I must say this because I am a music junkie and not because its my port but try Endymion 3.4. It's has beats included and its ok but when you add the beats zip it improves it and its crystal clear. I suggest downloading the equalizer app too. That way you can tweak your highs and lows.
