Nexus 7 played a song in it's own !!! - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I'm checking my mail on a second account on N7 and all of a sudden a song starts playing ...I checked multitasking and there were only the settings and gmail apps open.... i ran shazam on it and it's called " Atrévete-te-te "...I logged off this account and into another and the song still played !!!! I had to turn the device off.
Am I being attacked ?

Probably

Is it possible some nasty ad decided to play in the background in the browser?

Music fix

Hello... i seem to be having trouble with my music. When i start playing it through the stock player and leave my phone alone to play some tunes... the phone will stop the music after about 3 minutes of playing. I have juice defender running and i set up the music player to continue running after the screen locks... does anyone have any idea what the hell is going on? Thanks for taking the time to help.

Most probably your stock musicplayer is in "auto end list" in task manager app, it autostops the apps in the list at about the time you mentioned. Hope this helps and solves your issue...
I looked at auto end list but it wasnt there. Do you know of any other good music player? I usually use subsonic to connect to my media server at home, it has an option to keep the screen on. but when I'm in the car i like to listen to my tunes without streaming...

The big 3 are:
PlayerPro
PowerAmp
Winamp
Also for regular Internet Radio, I enjoy using Cherry RPlayer...

No problem, I ended up choosing PlayerPro myself a while back out of those Top 3.
BTW, Grab the "DSP Pack" and you can really have some fun with the equalizer settings added on...

Sometimes auto-ending a certain other app also causes the music to stop. I don't remember what it was, but it may have been photo gallery, or some other such media.

Transformers movie?

Who's 7 came with the movie?
Mine did. I wonder if it's a rental, aka once you open it, you have 24 hrs to view it, or if you downright own the movie?
Its linked onto my youtube. When I went to the site on my computer it said it was purchased
K. Thanx
I can't find it. Where did you go to find it? It won't even show up when I search for it.

Mine is a streaming copy. Tested this by disconnecting my wifi. Maybe there's a way to download it, but I rather not waste storage space on my Nexus 7.
Mine is streaming also. Just open the google movies app and it should be there.

To download it, click on the pin in the lower right corner when you open Google Play Movies.
Unfortunately mine did. I did not see that movie for a reason.

Don't download it if you plan on rooting it. If you do a factory reset say goodbye to it forever.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I've downloaded it and also performed 2 factory resets and the movie is still there in my GP account.
I stand corrected... on my ego shift I rented a movie and downloaded it, when I did a factory reset it wouldn't let me play the movie or stream it from YouTube

Just to clarify, you got the $25 credit but not the movie? Did you get the free magazines and music?

I got the $25 credit. I found free 30 and 14 day subscriptions to a couple magazines. I didn't see any free music.

They all have that, you sign into your Google account and open play ,movies. Of course its streaming, these tablets have limited storage. Like said, press the pin if you want it local

Is there a way to play music from browser with screen off?

Alright so the other night I was showing off my new Nexus 7 to a friend. He's a strong Apple fanboy so naturally we were we comparing several different features between our devices. I showed off Google Now and all that goodness. But I soon found myself missing a feature that he had on his 4S. And that was the ability to play music from a browser or YouTube app while having his screen off.. I'm pretty sure this was the first time I was envious of an iOS product.
Well so the question is, is there any way to play music from a browser while having my screen off? Even when switching tabs in Chrome, the music will stop playing. And no I don't want to download the audio file from the YouTube video using a special app or website.
Thanks for the future advice/info.

Oh yes, the old double tap home button after locking the screen at YouTube trick. It brings up the volume , pause and play buttons, but if you hit play, it streams the audio. Pretty badass

Can you elaborate? Double tapping just seems to bring up the launcher for me.

I see, what an ass.
Anyway, PVSTAR, and to a lesser extent StickIt.
There's an app called nextvid that replaces YouTube and does that.
Compatible on the n7, hope that helps.

Not to worry, Apple is removing YouTube from iOS 6. "We're mad at Google and we're going to take it out on our customers!"

Media Scanner?

What media scanner does everyone use? Since our phone doesn't scan like Samsung or Sony I think.. Instead of just rebooting.. :/

No.. I meant how sometimes pictures, music, ringtones don't show up unless you do a media scan or reboot the phone..

I haven't encountered that problem with my N4 yet...figured it had something to do with not having external SD, since its the same way on my N7. My music sometimes doesn't import it straight away but after I download since I use player pro I use it s scan feature and just have it set to my swarm folder and it grabs the music and album art right away.

Built-In Music player problem - SM-N9005 + MJ7 (BTU)

Hi All
i've been searching through the internet and through XDA and couldn't find anything relative to the problem i experience with my Note 3 (SM-N9005 + MJ7 (BTU). I'm using the built in Music Player app and widget and i've noticed that it never remembers the minute/second of the currently played track after it exits. I mean - i listen to a 2 hours mix (single mp3 file) and pause the player after 40 minutes, then i want to resume from the same position but it will always start from the beginning of the track ! i've noticed that it happens only after Music Player disappears from the running apps and this happens few minutes after you actually pause it or exit from the UI.
Did anyone notice that ? is that a new "hidden feature" that we never asked for ???
