[APP] 3 (Cubed) Music Player. Amazing UI and Amazing Widgets!!

I did not create this application so please do not ask me to add or fix anything
I haven't seen anything about this music player and I found it by accident when I was browsing through the market. I have always hated the ugly Android Music player UI and I've always wanted a UI much like this one. Anyway, check it out!
I have attached some screenshots but there are some full videos on youtube.

I used ADW to make the 4x4 widget into a 4x2 widget and it looks awesome. Here's my current widget first then the rest are underneath it.
These are the different view modes you can use. I personally love the flip one called "Morph Flow" in the app.

This is my favorite music player! Downloads album art automatically, great way to traverse your music, Lets you Queue songs to Playlist and then save playlists. Just excellent.
All I'm waiting for is twitter/fbook #nowplaying integration.

Does cube player still have that ****ty bug where it can't list Artistes with unicode characters? Like Japanese and other East Asian characters?
The concept was great but the cube went on a spinning loop whenever I tried scrolling to a singer with unicode characters. Think it had something to do with the alphabet recognition.

I have no idea, have you emailed the developer? Every time I find a bug with an app I email the developer and almost every time they reply with something useful.

i loved this app while i had it installed, unfortunately most of my music listening is done with the phone in my pocket on random and i use the outside buttons to skip songs, which this app doesn't support, so i quit using it. stand up player though for sure, the automatic artwork download is really awesome.

Hey the headset buttons work for me. You may want to try again lol.

I'm talking about using the volume buttons to skip tracks, a feature implemented in the stock player on cyanogen roms.

Oh, I don't use a wired headset unless I'm at work sitting at my desk. I normally use my Bluetooth headset that has skip forward and back, volume and play/pause.

It still rock, wish for more function coming, but it seems the developer stop on it at the moment, it has been a long time no updates on it.

this dev has been around here for ages- he originally made rockon back in the day and from there made this one- this is also my fave music app- and the lockscreen music controls for CM6 also work for this app!!
i show it to all my mates to freak them out as to what android can do

How long does it take for the player to load the album arts that are imbedded in idtag?
It never loads the album art on the first start for me, and sometimes only some albums are shown.
The stock music player loads all album arts straightaway but not cubed player..

If not appear, then just press and hold the blank cover, it will appear your original use for choose, or you can choose new one from internet.

I have a big problem with it.
Yesterday, it showed me wrong album arts for most of the albums. Today, it doesnt show the album covers, even tho I have them embedded in the ID3 tags of the mp3s. At the same time, all other players show the album arts properly.
I have also placed AlbumArt.jpg in each of the folders, so I removed them to see if there is some kinda conflict between the jpg in the folder and the ID3 embedded art, but its the same.
I tired uninstalling n reinstalling. I also searched for some kinda data/database on the SD card related to the cubed player, but cudnt find.
Plz help me.

Delete /sdcard/albumthumb/rockOnNg
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Ohh I see...its actually the RockOn - New Generation, since its created by the same guy. This makes me realize that the album arts completely disappeared after I deleted the RockOnNG folder just an hour ago, since I thot it was for the RockOn app that I'd installed recently, since before I deleted the folder, wrong album arts were assigned to wrong albums !
That is, the RockOnNG folder had already been deleted by me, unknowingly. What the hell is the solution now?
P.S. uninstalling and reinstalling n then reassigning is not working.

I solved the issue by deleting the whole albumthumbs folder itself and then uninstalling, reinstalling and reassigning. Now, all the embedded art is perfectly displayed, only the AlbumArt.jpg doesnt work, which isnt a prob as I can embed the art in those albums.

You guys should try PowerAmp.
Its the first time I felt a music player took a huge step and included most/all wanted features.
The EQ/swiping/widget/folder picking etc are fantastic.

I can´t find sleeping in this music player

PowerAMP is looking amazing!

Probably already mentioned here??? But I've just tried PowerAMP, check it out:

Here's a great video demonstration made by rollercoastervj

Does it work on Android 1.6?

No sorry, only 2.0+ versions...

is this app in the market?
cant seem to find it

For some reason it seems it only can be downloaded from warez sites atm but since it's a beta I don't know if it would be against the rules to post it here???

I'm absolutely loving this app. Thanks OP!

I've been using it for a while and its great!! If this is beta I cant imagine how good the final will be. I bet you browse the same site as me

These are a few gripes I have with the app, the first one being the most important:
When going through the library of artists, once you pick an artist you are taken to all songs by the artist and not to a list of the albums by the artist. Sometimes when pressing the back button, the app closes to the homescreen instead of showing the previous screen. If you're playing a song and are browsing your playlist, album list, etc. there's no quick way to return to the player screen that shows the current song that's playing.

I agree, that's a biggie.

I just upload a video of the app to youtube. It is my first video so dont expect pro stuff Just a video of fingering around with PowerAmp

Thanks for the great video, I learnt a few new things from it
This is definitely the best audio player I've seen on any mobile device, PERIOD!

this is really nice! TFS!
Although the widget could be better..and the home screen of the app could be made simpler but overall this is nice...
definitely nice to have SD folder view!
I winder how it would par with MixZing

Trying it out right now so far loving it good looking out great media player
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App

I picked this up and I really like it so far. The ui is great even though there are a few oddities still. When selecting an mp3 from Astro it goes to the player but it doesn't play the file I just selected...the player comes up with the last song that was being played. Still messing with it though and it looks great so far.

i think one feature that would make this a killer music player... that if its possible to restrict musics off one folder (eg. "Music") in the root of SD... this way i dont have to listen to machine gun and other android game sound fx on my media player... veryyy annoying..!!!!

Android 3.0 Honeycomb Music Player

This is originally from dailymobile.se forum. I hope,that it is not a problem,that I share it here,THX Guys!
I´ve tested it on my rooted galaxy tab P1000XXJMA and it works without problems.

Installation:
1,download attached file
2,Send it to Your device
3,Install it! - The Music and JumperTest icons appear in your menu
Simple isn´t it?You don´t need to replace anything in system files.REALLY
One of installed icon is JUMPERTEST! What is that all about? As far as we can tell, using all of our intuition powers, is that this is the key to streaming all of your music – from your desktop and from the cloud, back down to your handset. Sounds like a big deal? That’s because it totally is. This right here could be the key to spurring up competition for the iPod. Holy crap can you even believe it?
When you’re in the JumperTest app, take a peek under your Controls tab – you’ll see Start Peer, Stop Peer, and Import Local Media. Neato! Then when you’re back in the Music Player app, check under Music settings – there are straight up options for streaming. It even appears that you’ll be able to cache streamed music for later use – fabulous!
Then there’s a search function you can use on any song – all you’ve got to do is a longpress and it pops up with multiple options – the coolest of which right now is the ability to move right to YouTube. You like the song and want to see if there’s a music video to go with? Easy!
And here comes some more screenshots:
I hope You will like it! And don´t forget, that this is only testing version: stability can´t be as good as expected and some functions (like Equalizer) aren´t included.
Have a nice day!

Do you still have lag in the music when you draw the status bar?
Its still in beta right?

I'm running JMA. I tried to install it before and it asked to overwrite the system app (which it obviously can't do) then tried deleting the stock app and replacing it with this one using Root Explorer but I got fc constantly. Seems to be the same with this apk.

works fine with jmc and my hd2 got both music players
side note 137 downloads and ony 2 thanks wow

Well visually this is a massive improvement over the poor original player. Thanks for the post.
The big question, does it do gapless mp3 playback?

fc everytime!

You have to remember that this app is not indicative of how the TAB will run Honeycomb or even Honeycomb apps. This .apk is Beta (at best) it may even be alpha. Once Honeycomb is released on ASOP, then we can see how the Honeycomb .apks will work on the TAB.

hmm, let's hope so
coz i really2 want honeycomb for my tab ^^

Nice looking player, can't wait to see the final and stable versions appear. Does this come with a widget or is it too early for such things?
Thx for posting though

There is a widget. You can add it on Your homescreen as usual:Left menu icon->Add->Widgets->Music....and here it comes but it doesn´t show the album art, just name of the file and possibility to stop the music or skip to another track.....works like a charm

There is a problem parsing the package.

Won't install, downloaded on the tab and emailed the apk to my son's desire and it installed fine there, but not on the tab! Strange.

Thank you sir. Works on my SGT. Stock Rom

The thing is...... Is it any better than MIUI Music?

[PROJ] Music Player For Android

Ok so I have tried every music player on the Market and I am just not satisfied, there are ones i like, for example MIUI Music or Poweramp. However each one is missing a key component.
So What i want to do is start a project to make the Best Music Player For Android combining the Best Features and then making them better. I am not a Dev but a great idea thinker when it comes to projects. So what i really need is some devs that want to join into this project. PM Me if you are interested!
Features to Be Included(Hopefully)
Slick UI
Equalizer(like in poweramp)
Lyrics (Like in MIUI music)
Ability to Stream Music
5.1 Dolby Support
Ipod Touch and Honeycomb Like landscape view (http://www.coolgadgetconcept.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/coolest-ipod-touch-2.jpg)
Voice Search
Any other Ideas PM

If you want to develop "the best music player", you would have to add quite a few more features than that. You should check out the features of Rockbox, and add the interface features you want to that. To mention a few:
gapless playback
wide codec support (lossless as well as lossy formats)
crossfeed
crossfade
album artist support
advanced database search
Check the Rockbox features at http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/FeatureComparison
Rockbox for Android is being developed, and the features above, except the database, is already working. But especially the UI still needs some work. But the music playback features should be more important than nice looks, anyway.

i really would like to be able to edit song info from my phone (EX. Artist, Album, Song Name) and be able to use pics from my gallery to use as album covers

I second this.

Use player pro it has all of that
Sent from a guy living in a van down by the river

Some ideas:
Database: Browse music by artist/album/song (the tags supported by all music players) and by genre (only a few android players support the genre tag) and by composer (for classical music and DJ collections, none of the android players currently support the composer tag). Of course by folder too. Not everyone needs all the ID3 tags, so let us toggle them on/off in the settings menu.
Play Queue/on the fly playlist like in WinAmp and PlayerPro.
Swipe screen to move from "now playing" to "play queue" to "music collection," or use a WinAmp-like "now playing" rollup screen.
Optional lyrics/last.fm/shoutcast/etc. plugins, so everyone can add their favorite features without bloating the app. Same for codecs: don't bloat the app with dozens of codecs, but let everyone add the codecs they want and leave out the codecs they don't care about.
A build-your-own widget feature (or widgets as optional plugins so you have a wide choice without overcrowding Android's widget list). Some people want a big 4x5 widget with a large album cover picture, others (like me) want to cram artist/title info and play/back/forward buttons in a small 2x1 widget, some may want to put their entire play queue in a scrolling widget, etc.
And of course an equalizer, with presets as optional plugins.
To cut a long story short: it's impossible to make a perfect one-size-fits-all player. The only way to make the best player possible is to make a minimalist "base app" and then let the user add plugins and customize the app to his/her own taste as much as possible.

crossfade, oh my, crossfade, i actually use some DJ dual player app to get crossfade cus non of the regular ones have it.

Can you include a feature to play a song once and stop after that? Every music player I've seen on the marketplace feels the need to keep going and going through every album unless I turn on repeat or something.
This is what has stopped me from replacing my MP3 player with my Android phone. I love how on my MP3 player, I can play a song and it will stop after the song finishes, or if I select another song to play instead.

I agree, Player Pro is amazing, I installed it a couple weeks ago and it's much better than the stock Player, It is the first music player I have found and liked that finds music on the device storage and sd card. The only thing I kinda wish it had, although it's a cosmetic thing, is that I wish it had a coverflow type landscape.

Another killer feature for a new music app:
Split screen layout of music library, play queue, and player control buttons. This way you can insert songs into the right place of the playqueue by a simple drag'n'drop action, and you have the most important parts of any music app combined in a single screen.
A rough outline of what it could look like (yes, it's a messy cut'n'paste job):

God job man, my only choice for the music love!
Really like the YouTube search option, makes finding and sharing tunes a breeze!
I have few suggestions though:
Media Scanner to rescan the external SD card so the player can discover the newly downloaded content. The native scanner only scans the card at boot up.
Rotation support, I really dislike when apps don't support landscape orientation. First of all, landscape offers wider view for which comes in handy to see long song names and second, it's rather annoying having to rotate the phone every time when switching between apps that have different rotation support.
Now playing open window options availablity, can you add a favourite button and direct YouTube song search there so switching to the current playlist section is uneeded?
Otherwise this is one of the very best music apps there is and I would love to throw you a little donation, specially if you could implement some of these suggestions! ?

Looks good. But need folder and storage option searchs. Otherwise works great. Would like rotation as well but these are just suggestions. Good job

The app always crashes if I rotate the screen when the app is onscreen. I'm running Lineage OS on Galaxy S5.

Howzit...
What's the chances of adding a feature where I can select which folders to be scanned for music? And also a share option for media?
Otherwise it's looking good.

Hey, folks & devs!
I'd really like to know what's going on with development of this fine app? XDA Labs says it's removed from the repo, hopefuly not for good. Maybe devs decided to move elsewhere?
Anyone?
