Stock apps? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

So, I've looked around these forums for any post about the stock apps and I was wondering if anyone knew the name of the stock keyboard and stock music player are. I've looked in my nandroid backup and found like 10 different music apk/odex files and no keyboard apks at all.
Currently, I'm on the latest stable Slimbean ROM and was told that said apps will work on the ROM. Just can't find them.

Apps that come on the phone when you buy it. I wanted the Samsung Keyboard and the music player that comes on the phone when you buy it, but apparently, they won't work on slimbean.

New CM music App!!

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
http://powerampapp.com/
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!!

Music player 3.0 (official Google)

here it is:
http://techfrom10.com/2011/04/the-android-test-market/
works like a charm on Cyanogenmod 7 RC4, even lockscreen commands, replaced old music.apk with new one in system/app (s-off or via adb)
enjoy!
cheers
I agree it works great - a big improvement from the previous leak.
This is also being covered in the general Android Apps and Games forum:

Larger than Winamp (7MB as opposed to 3MB once installed)
How did you get the lockscreen commands working? I had nothing. I'd maybe use it then as it does look nice, but Winamp has a better widget, plus lock screen.
It is force closing on my desire using gingervillian... any ideas?
it is working on my Viewpad 10s not optimal but useble..
Mine keeps saying "application not installed". I'm using oxygen 2.0.3. Any ideas?
I cant get it to install. I says application not installed everytime. I read somewhere that i has to do with the fact that i installed the older leaked version. How do i remove the old version completely?

Yes. That would be nice.
Not good... tried a few things.. looks ok .. uninstalled
buggy on oxygen 2.0.3
I really liked the interface though it is quite minimal so it's a shame that:
interface is slow to load and lags (not just on first load)
scrobbling gets very confused (last.fm doesn't know what to do and flashes scrobbling notification repeatedly).
uninstalled.
edit
downloaded a different version from some forum after reading an article about syncing music with latest music app. seemed to work very smoothly indeed.
I installed the one from here: Official Android Music 3.0 Beta! Get It Now!.
It works fine with the MIUI 1.4.8. But I'm missing some features like sleep timer, editing ID3-Tags. But I like the interface.
Is there a way of making this the default music app and having it work with the HTC Lockscreen? I Like it other than that.
I don't like it at all. It looks quite cheap compared to the older version... and compared to other players, including the stock HTC music player. Also, why so laggy?
thanks for this...
gooooooooood

[APP] [ICS] Music v4.0 [APP]

Hey everyone!
Here's the music app pulled from new android ICS.
It runs smooth and I really like it.
First time it will take a bit to load all your music.
Installation: just install it as a regular apk. It will do fine.
(do a backup just in case)

Actually, it ain't different :/ but I thought it would be correct since it's only available in the us through the market.
All in one, I thought it would be nice to leave this registered in the forum for others
I installed the first one and it's a bit slower than version 3...
$omator,
Is there any possibility of getting that coverflow of the recent tab on the artists tab in landscape?
Ty
i do not understand ) what is coverflow
That neat effect of scrolling through the album covers. It only appears in landscape in the recent tab.. :/ I would like to have that same effect but on the artists tab, is that possible to hack?
that is in fact very good question
same as where is ability to set particular soundclip as a ringtone
i think those features will get updated (and maybe more added) with next updates rolling out

It's a pity that we can't use this app to select the ringtone... I hope Google will add this in the near future!
Yeah, it's a shame.. They'll certainly add that in the next update. I just wish they would put that album cover scrolling effect in the artists tab and the others
unfortunatly it is not available in all countries
pro tip: you can activate google music via proxy and then use it normaly
t least tht was what ive done when was invited to beta

the cloud is if you change proxy.
if you just want the player, you can download the apk attached to the first post
OR
you can download "market enabler" from the market, choose an american provider, go to market and download google music (it should be there after changing to a us carrier)
thanks man!
Thanks dude!
You are both welcome

But on the sgs I get a better sound from the stock player (TWplayer) just by playing with the built-in equalizer and effects ( and the voodoo tweaks of course)
With the ics music player I can easily enable MusicFX and Equalizer apps and play with the settings, but still, I get better results with sgs stock player

Honestly, I don't use this music app. I use poweramp, which is the best player imo.. :b regarding stock music players, I think I prefer this one. But it has a lot to improve, like the miserable lack of setting a song as a ringtone! ahah hope we get that in next updates
mmm finally got it working on teamhacksungs ICS build, a great improvement over the old music app its actually usable now lol

missing bluetooth song info and contacts in prius 2013 __ HELP

I have a 2013 prius stock and a galaxy s4... When I had stock Rom my music information that showed on the prius screen came up but I was unable to change songs or go to playlists through the prius screen. I went to paranoid android Rom and now for all song music it is showing as unavailable and the contacts do not sync.... I have heard it might be the aosp or something like that.... is there ANY WAY to fix this

No there is no way to fix this. AOSP-based roms do not have the correct AVCRP version to support this feature. Previously, CM9 or 10 supported this with bluestack's cherry pick, but bluestacks has not updated this iirc.
You're SOL, sorry.

You could flash the Google Edition 4.2.2 , while not aosp, it has the vanilla flavor, bout you miss out on customization. Once 4.3 is released we should be good as the new Bluetooth stacks will have it

so is there currently any ROM that has the qualifications to allow me to play and stream music info to my car?
Any ROM will stream music into your car.
NON TOUCHWIZ ROMS will not stream Music information into your car.
It's as simple as that.
Google doesn't support it. Samsung has to add that feature, so thats why it only works on Touchwiz.
It's been a problem ever since 4.2 came out. With 4.1, custom ROM's like Cyanogenmod could manually add the feature in, but since Google changed the bluetooth stack on 4.2, nobody has either A) figured it out or B) gave it time to look into it.

Yes.
Everyone says that 4.3 will support it, but since Google never said anything about it (and I assume it doesn't work on the leaked 4.3 ROM) I would say to just either tough it out, or stick with a TW ROM. And get Nova launcher or something.

Music player seems to crash and forget Shuffle and Repeat. Anyone else?

The stock music player seems to crash periodically or something is happening where it forgets that Shuffle and Repeat were selected.
Is anyone else experiencing this and does anyone have a workaround?
Thanks,

I have a workaround that is way too obvious. Try another player. I really recommend Poweramp (ability to output 192khz 24 bit) or shuttle.

Personally I do not care for solutions that add advertisements or cost money when the built in application should work properly. However a better alternative would have been VLC. It is free and has no advertisements. I'll give that a try, but I would still like the developers to resolve the issue or at least put it on their todo list.
My main goal was to see if anyone else is experiencing this problem and to see about opening a bug report so that it might be addressed someday. I just don't know if it is limited to the klte branch or if it affects other phones. I was hoping to see how big the issue is. It hasn't worked correctly for years.

I ended up making Google Play Music my default instead of the Android Music. I still prefer Android Music. But oh well...

Certainly. I am rooted. I am running LinageOS version: 14.1-20170426-NIGHTLY-klte. However the problem has persisted since CM12. I had an older Galaxy S3 with I think CM10, that did not have the problem, but that was a long time ago. If you want a log with the problem, I can probably produce that.
I did wipe the phone before going from CM13 to Lineage and I did not restore from backup since I saw warnings against doing that with Titanium Backup.

To be honest. I have never tried the Stock Rom, but I would not think that Samsung would use the Android Music Player. I am currently using Google Play Music instead of the Android Music Player, but I have the widget on my desktop and every time that I see the shuffle and play all un-selected, I select them again. Usually within a few hours they are un-selected again.
I thought about trying the stock ROM, but from what I have seen it is Android 6.0. I guess I will give it a whirl though. Any recommendations on where to download a stock ROM?

yeah, to me, it doesnt sound like its worth the trouble. Id just try different aftermarket music players and stick with what you like the best. The nice thing about your problem, is that there isnt a shortage of music players to choose from, even free ones without ads. Have you tried viper?
