So, I guess this could be in the 'apps sections' but since I am not the developer of that app, I decided I would make it more of an informational post.
So, I have to first admit I do a little CyanogenMod "stocking" if you will (don't lie, you do too ). While scrolling through the gerrit review board, I happened to notice this http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,1797 .... If you scroll down and read the comments, it appears CM officially has a new music app!!!
So I went and checked out the app (search market for 'cubed', it's the fourth one down by 'Filipe Abrantes'). I find it to be pretty awesome visually, tho I miss some of my features from the current CM music app. I'm sure in due time, all features will find there way there!! It does have a few donate 'nag screens' which if you do your own CM stocking can find comments about here https://github.com/kmobs/rockonnggl/commit/025cbdeeda334722ca48d7ba9acb6479148964a3#comments
Let me be the first to says this is awesome, as the stock music app is terrible. Just wanted to 'spread the word' if you will, let me know what everyone thinks of this new music app, good OR bad!!
this cubed music player has been in the market place for a while. You can google reviews of the app since last year. Glad they decided to put it in though, so thankx for the info
It's already in the "unofficial" builds.. don't like it
i played with it a bit, its pretty nice, still think i'll be sticking with poweramp though. Music3 is just missing a couple features that i need from poweramp (namely the eq,the built in one in CM isnt quite as good and the way it processes the music folders)
I use cubed daily. I don't need eq.
I'm sure any and all features that *can* be added will... just gotta wait and see....
I agree its not the greatest settings wise now that I've had more usage... but visually its a nice app...
Now lets see what added cm SPUNK can bring to it!!

Search for pub:"Filipe Abrantes"
been using this player for a long time hopefully CM fixes its quarks like album covers getting unmatched etc..
For us who like the stock music app better, what would be the best way to install it back and uninstall the one that comes with CM?
I'm sure you could do it with Titanium Backup. Open titanium. Press and hold the app. Uninstall. Install the Music.apk from somewhere else.

CM6 uses Music Mod (by Elliot Stocker) as the default player. I don't really like cubed either.
I know when CM7 Official comes out, I'll be reverting back to the original music app. I've had nothing but problems with Music3. IE: unplugging headphones and app freaks out and starts skipping/playing songs, the "Queue" list doesn't list all my songs in the playlist(most of which are over 500 songs.)
try powerAMP if u want some EQ with bass and treble for your ears.

Definitely the best music player on the market.
I just like how it updated the info from the internet included album art... and has a full screen widget that displays the album art.
does powerAMP do this?
[UPDATE]
PowerAMP looks like it does the same thing except its $4 or $5

Download and Install this. I believe you all may like it. (Ginger Bread Roms ONLY)

FYI
it appears to me that @chrissoyars reverted the CM repo back to the old music play last night... Just an FYI, so we will see what happens!!
Hi,
I have an annoying issue on the latest Quarx's CM10 (18/03). I have this problem since November I think. When I'm playing music from my SD card on any music app (usually I use Play music or PowerAMP) it stop randomly after some music when screen is off.
I think it happen because of RAM management which kill running app on IDLE to increase battery life. But I tried tweak RAM setting and it didn't change nothing.
I think I'm not the one with this issue. I'll take every idea to try to fix this.
Thank you.
Keep your app in foreground.
And if your player has notification thingy, the atk can't kill that app. I think both apps you mentioned has a notification control, SDL it can't be memory management!

Thank you for your reply.
I can keep the app in foreground but it take approximately 30-45mo of RAM so my phone will become very laggy.
I think you're right when you say it can't kill the app because of the notification. But I think android system kill an other background service which is necessary to the music be played correctly. I'll trying to investigate when I'll have more time.
I have an other app called Deezer (French Spotify service). This app never stop or less frequently. I think it's because it use it own decode system (music file are encrypted on the server or memory card). The app don't use external services to decode music so the app continue playing after hours.
Btw I find strange that I'm the only one to complain about this. I will make a clean install in some day.
AW: [Q] Music stop playing on CM10
Hi, you test supercharger script? With this you can look apps in memory or under general I saw a post how to look apps in memory.
Gesendet von meinem MB526
Yes in know how to do it. But if I lock music player in memory, it will take about 40mo all the time. My Defy will become very laggy.

Hi Husi10,
I have the same issue as you about music playback.
My problem is the following :
When I'm using Deezer app with CM10 or CM10.1, music playback is frequently laggy (always in the very begenning of the tracks) and sometimes it stops playing in some unknown situations (as you described on this thread).
This issue doesn't occur on CM7.
Did you, as me, notice this playback lags in the begenning of the tracks ?
Did you find a fix or a workaround for this issue on CM10.x since March (date of your post) ?
Thanks
Hi,
Yeah, music playback on Deezer's app is laggy in the beginning of every track. I think there's no workaround because it's a bug with the app itself. It happens also with my tablet (Nexus 10). But playback never stop by itself.
After my post, I did a clean install (wipe data) and also format my SD card. It helped a lot, I never experimented this kind of bug again.

Thanks for your reply.
In my experience, music lags issue only occur in CM10.x. Did you already test Deezer on CM7 ?
[EDIT] So, do you think that Deezer is buggy like this only since Android 4.1 ?
On which ROM your Nexus 10 runs ?
My Nexus 10 runs on AOKP (4.2.2). I think it's an issue with Deezer itself, whatever the rom.

Hi,
I'm just (re)testing Deezer on my Defy running Quarx CM10.1 build (2013-06-26).
I've changed I/O scheduler to "cfq" (before my change, it was "sio") and it seems to work better, I don't notice lags at the beginning of each songs for the moment. :fingers-crossed:
Is it the same for you ? Could you test it in order to confirm my potential finding ?
Thanks
Oh yeah that's really better with cfq scheduler. Thank you for the tips.

After one more day of tests with cfq i/o scheduler, I've noticed that lags at the beginning of a song still occur BUT only after launching Deezer and only with the first song. The next songs playback is smooth.

Didn't look into navigation ring... And the audio doesn't seem to be working when screen goes off... Is it a bug with all the cm10.1 builds? Is it been fixed on other builds?.. Anyways I'll look into it...
Edit:navigation ring does appear, but it appears in the middle... Not usable.. Will fix in the next build..

Of course I know what the bug is. Any locally played music stops playing immediately after the screen turns off. The music is interrupted with a tone that sounds similar to a system beep, akin to a sound that a piezoelectric speaker would make.
Just checked. Its fine in JCsulins's latest cm10 build. music doesnt stop when screen turns off, but it does happen in shumash's
The bug is there in SGA'S 4.2.2 rom also. Music stops playing when screen goes off.

Just wiped and did a clean install of JCSullin's latest build. The music plays fine for a while, and there appears to be no bug, but the bug comes back after playing music for a while.

Sounds like you need to acme uninstall everything and start fresh. I used jc's cm10 for a long time and played music very often. Never had a problem.

Anyone try this new feature out?? I can get it to make the movie, however, when I go to save it... Google+ crashes... anyone else experiencing this??
Anyone? lol
I'm experiencing the same thing and it's maddening. I tried uninstalling and re-installing. I got the movie to save once and that was it. I'm on a Sprint Galaxy Note 3.

I have a GN 2 with the build.prop moddified to a Nexus 4. I can save the files but they are fully black (with the music). Sometimes doesn't save it and sometimes I get an error saying the video is already playing and it stops "renderind"
Sorry for my English!!
thank God. It's not only me. I've odin'd and everything and nothing is fixing it...
At least you have the option i dont have the option!
AutoAwesome Crash
I've had the same crash experience on my devices. On the HTC One it just crashes the app, on the Nexus 5 though is completely restarts the phone...
Same here.
I am on KitKat 4.4.2 (Nexus 5).
Experienced same problem on KitKat 4.4 (always on Nexus 5).
Hope they will fix it soon!
Got the same problem (some movies could be saved, some not) but just now the G+ app stopped creating auto awesome effects and the movie icon to make manual movies has disappeared.... anyone ?
I am on Note 3 stock rom 4.4.2
if you have root you can enable the music channel by editing the default.xml. Using a file explorer navigate through system/customize/aac to default xml and incase your rom doesn't use default.xml, edit the one with your cid, scroll right to the bottom of the default .xml, in that area you will see a line, support_music_channel">false ...change it to true, save, reboot. In settings there should be an option for music channel, now, I donot know if it works without harmon kardon so some feedback would be good from someone using stock adsp.img with boomsound, I cant see why it wont work. Give a try and post your results. Play a song in any music app (supposedly), if music channel is enabled there will be a notification pop up, open the notification draw and tap music channel, you will have access to visualizations and gracenote and an update function for music lryics, I actually think its awesome and don't know why its been disabled.
Thanks for the tip! Just got this working on mt ATT One M8 running nV Rom. It took me a while to get the default.xml to actually save my edits, but what I ended up doing was rebooting to TWRP recovery, mounting /system and using the console to pull up vi and edit the file. Was a bit of a pain, but it looks awesome!
Works great thanks! It was very easy to do. I just edited the file with x-plore and then I changed the permissions back, rebooted and it worked. Btw it worked with BoomSound!
Cool ...nice to hear it works for boomsound aswell, why HTC disabled it is beyond me, the option itself works fine, its gracenotes database that seems to be a bit dodgy, they don't have enough information for lryics, seems its just the most popular albums/tracks, most of the stuff I listen to cant get the lryics, like metric and feedme, think its mainly charts.
Tty and hearing aid enhancement also works ....just enable in default.XML, there's loads of features turned off, these 2 modes are very much needed, well. I can say for sure hearing aid enhancement would be much needed by ppl.

cheers for that, why that isnt there by default is beyond me, awesome. im running stock aswell
So what is music channel and what does it do for me. I enabled it and don't see any difference so far. Thanks though.

Play some music, if its working properly an icon will pop up in notification draw, open the draw click on music channel and see. It suppsed to detect any music player but I expect theres limitations, works on googleplay and stock ...not tried any other, htc's music player as got a cropped down version of the music channel tied only the that app, this one should be global.
Now that I'm back stock (but still S-Off), can i get this to work?
Before stock, i tried Viper Rom, and this Rom has the channel enabled...
This is rad! Such a fail on their part for having this defaulted to off. I tried it with Google play music and spotify and it worked no problem. I used root explorer to change everything needed and took two seconds. Thank you soooo much!!!!

Yes, will work on stock, its part of htc's rom, its installed because there music app uses it, but htc disabled the global use.
Just enabled it for ARHD 10.2. Fantastic! Thank you!
i have a line for "support_music_ringtone", another line in the same area for "support_outdoor_mode"... nothing that says "support_music_channel" though... any ideas?
For people who cannot get the Lyrics to work it is due to Gracenote country restrictions.
If you cannot get lyrics for music , download any VPN app and browse as a US user.
I personally prefer Tunnelbear.
then after you turn it on go to the music channel , click the menu button then update lyrics..wait a couple of seconds and your lyrics will be there.
I only needed to do this once..it is working now even after i turned VPN off.

This feature is already there just no such special dedicate button popup at notification.
During playback of song, scroll to right at main music player (from now playing to visualizer) and you will get the exact same thing.

Htc's music visualizer's not global/system wide, as wrote above, its in the htc music app but htc disabled it for use on other music apps, It also has its own play/stop/skip buttons in full screen plus, I think it enables a few more visuals but not 100% on that as I never looked in the music app, if someone wants to look before they enable it and give feedback ..that would be great.

Oh others music apps. That I didn't use others apps.
But for HTC own apps, it is there.
I'm using it now with Amazon Prime. Is there a way to turn off the lyrics and just have the visualizations?
