I kinda hate the UI on the thing, browsing for music is complicated to say the least.
What are other music player options available for android? I would prefer something free but if its a paid app I'm willing to pay for it.
Also some of my music has incorrect album info, any way to edit this on the phone manually?
Thanks guys
I use PlayerPro from the market. It's a paid app but well worth it. Very easy to navigate and you can edit the song tags in the app.
Can I edit stuff for example, I Have two songs from The Killers, one says the artist is TheKillers (without the space)?. This causes 2 different artists to pop up
Going to start reading some reviews.
I'll give another Hell YA on PlayerPro. No matter what rom i'm on i HAVE to have playerpro. its one of the apps that solidified my love for android and its customizability. PlayerPro is literally the PERFECT media player.
EDIT: and yes, you can edit all the info and tags on all your media very easily
sweet, going to download the trial when I get home later, may end up purchasing it
Poweramp is one of the best out there, unfortunately its paid
definitely worth it however
I use cloudskipper. It's free and has a built in equalizer and pretty sweet lockscreen controls

poweramp.. all the way! paid but well worth it. If the song has lyrics, it will scroll em. If you want it loud, use the preamp. If you want it REALLY LOUD, QPST mod!!!
Never heard ANY phone this loud!!!
PowerAmp is dope, been my fave since the day I loaded it. I'll have to check out Player Pro, looks clean.

+1 for PlayerPro.
I could tell you a million things that I love about it (and why I chose it over PowerAmp), but I'll let you try out the trial and decide for yourself.
The PlayerPro trial will play music past the seven days, but it loses functionality. Read the reviews for the paid one along with the trial - but take some of the trial reviews lightly, some people are using it past the trial period and it isn't working to its full potential.

I agree. I too have tried many of the music players and I kept going back to PowerAmp. Great music player. Lots of settings. Easy to use. The ability to sort by folder is awesome.
Google music beta is kinda cool. No issues so far. Even has search option. But no controls on lockscreen.

Im having some problems with the normal Music v2.2 app that comes with Cyanogen RC1... its pretty basic, the widget is flaky, etc. so im looking to replace it.
I checked Market real quick for some other Music Players and there are quite a few that come up - some free, some paid.
... so, basically... Im just looking for some feedback on whats the "best" one out there? Is there possibly one out there that is really just that good? Or, personal recommendations on whats worked best for you, etc.
Thanks again for the help!
I have Mixzing and liked it enough to get the paid version its nice you can set it to look at different folders for music and ignore others. I hated the default app that came with my phone i had a few audiobooks, pre-audible, that would shuffle in when playing from my collection. Very annoying to go from music to spoken word when you expect music. it does all your basic functions and such has some other features but i never got into the more premium stuff.
+1 for mixzing, very nice app, and I have the free version. If you're just looking for plain, good-looking simplicity though, not features, Try zimly (free in market).

I actually didnt try either of those 2 that you recommended, but am about to here in just a few mins. I donwloaded "Music Player" which was highly rated and talked about a good bit - but its volume is horrible. Even after going in to settings and moving their volume up and having media volume up I have to have the volume knob in my car all the way to the right. I thought this was weird so I switched back to the one that comes with CM6, freakin almost blew my speakers. It seems like each app is using the volume different, which is weird. And I definitely went through all the settings to ensure that the volumes were all the way up.
I listen to audio books a lot as well - I freaking love them!!! Makes my car ride to and from work so much better its stupid... but I know what you mean when it comes to them switching from word to music, etc. haha!
Is this volume issue common? Is there anything that will actually boost the volume past the normal max level?
Thanks

I love the new music player and its features but for the life of me I don't understand why a widget was not included with this player.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I guess because the widget was for the android 2.1 player not the samsung player that comes with 2.2. Not to mention that would make it redundant having the controls in the notification bar after you start the app and a widget. What the should do on the other hand is give you the option to always have the controls shown in the notification bar. I also would have preferred a auto-rotation toggle over volume toggle... Because the volume buttons did a good job of that on their own, but now the simple task has become more complex and redundant...

Cough up $5.00 for PowerAmp and leave all default players as an afterthought.
Seriously, PowerAmp should be default. It's just that damn good.
Download Pure Music Widget from the market. Its a dollar, runs flawlessly, has like half a dozen widgets you can choose from and is awesome. Also works with almost every stock player on any device. Was actually my first purchase on Android.
Just get MusicMod. Free... Awesome...

I second the need for a default widget, its crazy. The samsung music player is really nice, I rather use it than another one. I like the idea of always being able to keep the controls in the notification bar as an alternative to a widget though.

I got player pro but I'm really loving the look of the new player so yes a widget would be great.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I agree, the new stock player is nice. It is however lacking 2 important features for me though, the widget and headset controls. If they updated it to include those features, I'd drop winamp in a heartbeat. But until then...

Doubletwist for me. Lockscreen controls, nice simple widget. Player is free and I got the wireless sync with doubletwist desktop for $0.99. I found the sync works better than the Winamp one for me.

The features in poweramp are nice as is the ui, but the sound quality of the oem samsung player cannot be matched.

Exactly.. I hav always used "Mixzing" since the 'Moment' 1st came out & I went to Android.. but for the 1st time, the stock player really has my grasp.. I'm a Producer/mix engineer so I know what i hear as far as music goes (not sayin no one else does as well) but the look, function & the 5.1 thing did itfor me.. 5.1 feature is 2nd to none with any of the players mentioned period...

What's wrong with doubletwist?
If you have a large amount of organized, but badly tagged MP3's - Mortplayer is the way to go.
Its the only "Folder-based" music player I've found, yet.
I don't know about you, but I hate loading my MP3's into other apps only to find duplicate albums, albums with 1 song in them, 10 versions of the same artist because the tags differ in capitalization... Don't even get me started on my Electronica genre, adding it makes any list of artists or albums so unwieldy large its frustrating.
I do, however, organize my MP3's in a directory structure - so Mortplayer lets me browse the Genre folders and then pick artists to listen to.
+1 Poweramp! It just works!

Anyone have a recommendation for a music app similar to the stock samsung TW app? I've tried all of the popular ones and they're UI's aren't as simple as the stock samsung. I'm running 4.4.2 and am not able to use that samsung app.
I suggest Poweramp I've used it for the past year. It works well with DSP manager and has a very convenient UI once you get used to it. Its really worth paying for! It offers a trial if you want to try it before buying it.

I am liking the GoneMad player. Have been using Mortplayer, but wanted a change and GoneMad may be it.
Available on Amazon appstore and if you got the free $5 from them it will end up free.
I use poweramp, I got a playstore card pretty much just to buy it. Song fade is really good, the next song starts playing very fast. I wish there was more EQ's in it though..
What app do you use to listen to your music?
The reason I am asking is because I am trying to find a good player. I currently have Apollo, but it picks up every single audio file it can find on the phone and I cannot limit to use a single folder.
Google music and poweramp.

Check out Gonemad Music Player, I've tried a lot and this suits me, you can browse by artist, album - and folder. All very easily, all the controls are intuitive. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gonemad.gmmp
For a slightly more off the wall approach, with very good audio, try Xenoamp http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1822492

Xenoamp looks promising, but a bit much for what I need and the UI, in my opinion feels clunky as it is right now.
I think I will go with Poweramp. Seems to offer everything I need.

I've bought PowerAMP. It's a very good app, which is full of functions and a lot customisable. I think the best one!
Give a try to the free one and i'm sure you will buy it then!!
