TF3D Music Tab - Alphabet Search Bar (BOUNTY $$$)

Hello Guy`s...
I have one request and i wonder why Nobody create some usefull app like this.
Im talking now about Blackstone but this can be usefull for everyone.
For example if you have thousend songs and you often listen music with your device will be very cool if you have a Alphabet serch bar for Music in the TF3D the same Bar that you have under contacts when you search a contact will be very usefull to have that in the Music Tab.
I think is not so hard to be made.. but i can`t do it by myself because i don`t understand how this work exactly.
This Request was few mounth under the Blackstone section but no one write something about that..
For this reason i decide to post it here where is full with Developers and peoples who know how to do it.
This is something that we can use almost everyday and will change the expirience of listening Music.
Please someone to make a Alphabet Search Bar for F3D Music Tab
Sorry for my English is not my mother language
I edit the Post because i saw that many peoples are interested in Search Bar like this and also some already Write a Bounty so i will Update the post Daily with All peoples who wana Bounty for this Project when is DONE and Work Perfect.
Anyway With Bounty Or Without this is something that we really need in our TF3D Music Tab.
Bounty List:
----------------------------------------------------
1. MineralGray02K = $10

Also my problem because i have got a lot of songs in my phone :/ But the best solution is to choose another player but i love that olayer in manila someone please do this

i really really need this!! i am forced to use the manila player in order to be able to use the button on my headphones to control music like an iphone. gets really annoying though having to scroll through a list of several hundred artists to get where i need! Please make this hack!!

So go 4 it, and write something and then share it with us! you'll get at least great repect as a reward for it

Can you read?
If im able to write and create some APP Like this i will not OPEN here new Treath someone to do it will do it by myself.

Too bad nobody seems to be interested.. I also would really like to see an alphabetic scrollbar on the right (like conduit pocketplayer 4.1); It takes ages to scroll down when you've got 1000+ songs.
I've got no idea whatsoever on how to do this; Is there anyone out ther who does? I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

I have the Music tab on TF3D disabled because there is no organization to it at all. This would be great!

Yes exactly NO ORGANIZATION and is very hard to Find the Song you wana Listen.
On the same time we NEED This because the Manila Music Player is very good i can say with sure. And maybe many of you know that the Quality of the Sound with the Manila Music Player is THE BEST.
I try around 10 diferent APPS MUsic Players no one of them can compare to the Default Manila Music Player im talking about the Sound Quality etc.
This Alphabetic Search Bar will be Superb Useful.

still no one willing to give this a try?we only ask here cos we dont know to do this ourselves

I want the same thing, I hope it will be possible one day...

oh please, i pray for a cab like this!

nobody seems interested to develop such a change? damn it

WAANT!!!
Me too wants this feature!! It would complete the already fabulous TF3D Music Player!! Please someone...

Yeah, i dont get why this isnt in there from htc.

Player in Manila is very nice.
But I think that there are other big problems that should be solved to make "The Player":
-Possibility to order what you get in screen (by Album, artist, music style...)
-Possibility to exclude folders some folders or to load only contens on "My Documents/music", instead of mixing music with ring tones and any wav file it found on the phone.
Any way, the propossed bar could be a great improvement.

Go to the registry. I don't feel like searching for you, but I've done it and it works. You don't get the letters, but you aren't stuck scrolling forever. Play with the scroll speeds/friction. The pro is that when I did it, I got through 4000+ songs in a few seconds (40kbps is good enough for telephone conversation, so it's good enough for my bluetooth). The con is that instead of seeing where you are, it's kind of blank due to it "going so fast." once you get comfortable, you will know how to get to certain letters fairly easy. Whoever finds it first, post it for the others please.

More then likely it has to do with two main things I've typically seen. A) You have two or more folders that only have access to some songs so if you have alot of music it looks like there's things shuffled when they're really missing. or B) You simply have the sort method setup differently.

thanks for the quick reply, could you suggest anything for me to change on my sgs plz?

[Q] Is there a Zune controller?? Like the iTunes controller?

Hello again everyone,
Always come here when all searching fails! So thanks!
Subject sort of says it all...but is there one out there?? Can't believe theres one for iTunes and not a proper one for Zune....I mean one that looks built in so we can get some WP7 and Windows 7 integration going on here.
Thanks again all!!

I use Zune on my PC religiously and if I could use my phone as a remote it would be awesome!

+1 Surely one of the devs on here could come up with this!

Any news out there devs???
I think theres a lot of people who want this!!
thanks

yup Zune desktop is awesome, I now use it religiously for music and videos.

Remote Control on the Marketplace does it and even shows the album art in the background. It also controls VLC, WMP, WMPC, Sound Mixer, and PowerDVD.

Theres an app called remotely possible. You can control most media programs. It costs $5. Its not as responsive as youd like but it does work

Which one are you talking about I cannot find it. The ones I've seen none of them look as slick as the iTunes one....
Hopefully someone out there is making it

Ah, one would think that MS integrates across platforms. They don't and this is a major cause of frustration by users. Save yourself the aggrevation and only think of MS as providing stove-piped solutions. This will make your life better. Of course I haven't been able to do this and I get frustrated at least once a day because of it. I'm guessing that I'm too far down the caring path and it's going to take a major effort to get over this affliction.

its called remote control and the icon is a broken up antenna in white on a black background. Dev. name is Jerome laban I believe. It works great and looks fine. I don't give a crap what it looks like. It works awesome for all the programs it controls and is easy to setup. That's what matters.

Thanks Ill have a look now! Disagree about the looks thing though! haha thanks for the info

This might be a little bit very late, but however I'd like to post this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17121777#post17121777

Possible revolutionary feature idea!

So I have pitched this to a few of the major android ROM makers on this site but I have yet to find anyone that says they have the know how to create my idea.
Well you know how you can select a custom picture and ringtone for people in your contact list? Well what if you could select a custom 15 sec video clip?
Abilities
- Custom clip from phone or internet video
-15 sec limit like ringtones
- Interchangeable sound, (Original video sound, or custom ringtone)
- Retain the Answer/Decline/Number/Name Overlay
- On cal will come up and play in loop until answer or decline
- On call pick up stop and phone operate as normal
What do ya'll think? Anyone have the know how to program something like this? I honestly think this could be the new big thing.

GPX viewer or similar app?

Hi,
anyone can recommend any application (if it exists) that would be able to read GPX tracks and give me a view on the watch whether I am on track or not? In best case over a map. Doesn't have to be stand alone. I usually have my phone with me anyway. I just don't want to be pulling out my phone every now and then.
Thanks.

Hey,
I´m interested in the exact same thing. Need it for biking, hiking and more.
Also I was wondering if there is a possibility to sync it with google maps or an other Navigation App on my Phone. Would love to start Maps on my Phone type in my destination and follow it on the watch. So that I don`t have to pull out my Phone again and again if I´m lost in the city for example.
Thanks

I'm interested in this too. Also, I know that Viewranger offer an Android app but not a Tizen compatible one. Does anyone know of a mapping app suitable for hiking etc. (i.e. will work with gpx route files or similar) that is available for Tizen?

I found out something already. Komoot seems to be pretty close. Although it works on Gear S3, it doesn't seem to offer this functionality yet on the watch. Offers it on sister Android application though. I sent them question/request today on this. They seem to be listening to requests from user community so perhaps they listen and act. Maybe it helps if you write them too.

Great. Let us know once they come back. I haven't heard anything back yet.

Komoot have advised me that they already have an app compatible with the Gear. This is what they said:
Hi Gareth we already have done that! You can get the Gear app extension you need for the komoot app to communicate with your watch in the Samsung Gear Store. Can you tell me, which phone you are using? Best regards Daniela

I told her I've just ordered my S3 Frontier from Amazon.es and hope to get it next week, so will try their app then and report back.

Of course they have. That's what I mention above ("it works on Gear S3") but it doesn't offer the funcionality we are looking for. You can't see GPX track on watch together with your position (and map underneath it in best case) so you can follow it. I assume it offers just navigation (shows only direction signs) but Komoot doesn't navigate on external GPX tracks.
I got e-mail moment ago from them too saying:
Currently not, but you can post your suggestion in our forum here:

That way, you'll be notified when the idea will be implemented, and other users can vote for it.

Hi all, I am not sure if anyone managed to get any progress on this but I am happy to inform you that finally there is an application that does what we have been looking for. It is called Gear Navigator (http://mobiteka.pl/index.php/component/k2/item/257-navigator) so feel free to test. There are still some things that can be improved but the essential features are there. I have been running it since beginning of Frebruary and I am very satisfied. Feel free to provide your comments and findings.

With Gear Navigation you can open GPX tracks and you get the map on your watch, better than Komoot in that way. It would be nice if it could work without the phone and without internet, even by just showing the tracks and your position, even without the surrounding map. That would make it more "hiker friendly" for those situations in which you may not have the phone (or need to keep it off to save battery) and you don't have any internet.
I see that the new Gear Navigation Standalone states to have GPX features, but I can't figure out how to upload a GPX to the watch or to the app!
Anyone tried it?

Well, I didn't use it without internet connection yet but I was expecting that the only limitation would be that I won!'t see the actual map but still see the track and my position. Do you say you tried but it doesn't work that way?

You're right, it seems to work even withouth internet. It keeps the map that's in cache, so if you preloaded the area you would even have the map. That's pretty sweet, kind of what the Fenix 5x does for just 800 euros!

That's great news. I was actually cooperating with the Gear Navigator developer and pursuaded him to develop the GPX feature. I did highlight to him that although the feature does what I wanted, the biggest gap I see is the inability to use the app without data connection. I even think the maps from Google are not the best for outdoor activities. He told me he will consider it but I am not very optimistic about it as it would be too much work for him and it seems that the demand is quite small.

Hi,
New owner of a samsung gear, i'm looking for what you discuss about!
Gear navigator is quiet good and seems the better!!! But something missing for me, i would like to import gpx from another place in order to follow it on the map, bit i didn't sucess.
If someone have some advice to do it, it would be great!!

Hi,
It's easy. You just click on the GPX file (in file browser, not GPX Navigator) a choose to open it in Gear Navigator.
R.

Okay, I'm trying to locate this app. Is it "Gear Navigator Standalone"? I only have a Bluetooth model so does this app need a watch with a data connection? Or does it need a phone and does it only work with Samsung phones? I've got a Blackberry Priv which is a BB ANDROID phone.
While the price of $2.99 is not outrageous, I really don't want to spend money if it is not going to work (no refund in the samsung store????).
JurekDJ, when you mention just above, open the file in the file browser, if this on a phone or on the watch - as you may be able to tell, I'm fairly new to the watch.
Any other info would be most helpful.
