Basically my 4 year old daughter loves the ability to play video files on my phone, using the default player whereby there's fullscreen scrollable previews, but after moving from Sense to AOSP the default music player is a written list only. This is obviously no good for her
I've tried Rockplayer, Act 1, Doubletwist etc but if the software does allow thumbnail previews it's nothing like the Sense player.
I wonder if there's anyway to restore the default Sense based video player into my Cyanogen'd ROM or is there something available on the Market alike?
Many thanks!

I'll second that, I used to use VPlayer but I find Moboplayer plays smoother and you get the thumbnail previews.
Android Music Player (stock) vs UberMusic and Google Music. I'm not a huge fan of the stock music player on my Samsung GT-i9000. Tried out UberMusic and Google Music but they both add track numbers to the front of 40% of my song titles. This makes it pretty difficult to find specific songs (because I don't know track numbers anymore, if I rip a CD it doesn't even rip in the order of the CD). Since my android player displays the song titles correctly; I am thinking there is something I can do to fix it in one of these better music players.
Anyone have this issue? Suggestions? Any better music players?

I'm guessing you already have noticed the Google Music Widget (not that I would classify it as good)

Only problem with Poweramp is that it isn't free, $5, and while it is probably the best available for Honeycomb I still don't like it. For an expensive app its still missing a lot imo. I love Pure Music Widget on my phone but it doesn't work on Honeycomb. it's the best music widget out there, works with stock music player just provides hundreds of skins and has all the stock sizes with imbedded album art. Been a while since I checked to see if the dev had upgraded it for HC as he had with his calendar widget.
I dont understand why samsung removed the stock honeycomb music player?
the samsung music player doesent have a widget.. + it kills the album art too )
Does anyone have the stock honeycomb music app?
thanks and cheers!
kzoodroid iam gona try pure music widget for the time.. thanks!
Going to look around for the HC Stock music apk
the floating music player is quite good. simple to use, easy to access, no need to exit an app to use.

I don't think there is a stock honeycomb music player. I believe Google Play Music (Google Music) is the closest thing and its in the market. It only has the one 4x1 widget just like Samsungs stock music player and Pure Music Widget doesn't work with it only the stock player.
PlayerPro!
n7player
I use n7player, and it's fantastic. Best looking music player I have seen, and comes with a few widgets to apply to a homescreen.
There's a review here: http://www.reghardware.com/2012/03/20/app_of_the_week_android_n7player/
Folks, I have a pretty large non-DRM .mp3 music library in iTunes. I have used ISyncr in the past, with my Galaxy s5, to bring down playlists and music and synchronize my Android phone to iTunes. Lately it hasn't been working well, probably because I have well over a thousand playlists.
I am also looking for the best music player, and wish to add Lyrics, and am intrigued by the Viper 4Android sound app, but I don't want to root my phone.
What do you all recommend as the best music player, the best app to sync iTunes, the best audio effects suite of apps to a music lover? Thanks so very much in advance for your help!
I've used all the free and paid music players over the years. Neutron is truly the only professional solution. It literally has every feature, where most players offer half of what neutron does. Poweramp is good for consumers too. Idk about iTunes syncing, I organize all my music in folders. Neutron has the most full featured non-root EQ, but if you're rooted eXtreme beats is coming out with a new revision soon.
for a regular user i think poweramp is the best music player.. nice sound and controls plus skinning. you can import playlists and export them as well.
Neutron is widely considered the best by audiophiles followed by Onkyo player (unlocked).
personally i leave the mp3 tagging stuff off of the phone. I havent found any apps that will properly list and tag mp3's as well as i can do it on a computer.
Assuming you're on windows, use MP3Tag to manage all your tags. it works on way more than mp3's, but it is by far the best solution for media library management.
For playback, i jump around on windows. Musicbee looks nice and is full featured. Winamp is nice. Foobar is very spartan and quite ugly but it works well and you can make it look more or less however you want, though it takes a lot of effort.
On the phone itself i use poweramp for music playback (though i do find the interface a bit clunky, and i dislike the "queue" thing it does). Neutron always gets good ratings. I had a horrible time with onkyo hf player. winamp is OK at best.
For audiobooks, i use SmartAudiobook Player. there are some weird bugginess issues, like when my head unit automatically starts the audiobook app instead of music, and refuses to play nice with it. Like if i stop the audiobook player and start music, sometimes the music will immediately stop and audiobooks will play instead. but my car is so damn loud that i use headphones while driving most of the time anyways.
I think JetAudio plus does a great job.
Where do I start lol...I have slowly turned into an audiophile and always look for the best audio on my phone so I have tried just about all the most popular music players / audio configs i could find on my phone,
I have also tried external DACS / Amplifiers and to be honest with my setup did not do much for me..I am running SOL Master Tracks XC headphones which are amazing with this phone and would totally recommend Neutron or Poweramp they seem to give the best sound from all I have tried and are also very customisable with the sound...
ViperFX is a must!! and the options / tweaks are just insane and what a difference it makes with a simple change of Convoler and EQ,
I use ViperFX with Dolby Atmos and Beats Audio which seems to me the best option and I flick between Neutron and Poweramp which i am still not decided on
What do you guys think of PlayerPro Music Player v3.7 ? I think it has the most features but I don't know how it compares to others, so I need your help to decide .

Rocket Player Pro is great! Using it for years!
Been using Timber for a bit now. Mostly use it because it looks really slick. I like the material design it has.

Player pro amazing app, I switched to Neutron which I am currently using and was using Poweramp before that, I find Neutron to give a more Natural better sound than others but Neutron / Poweramp / Player Pro and Jet music are ones id recommend
I'm a Poweramp fan myself.
There's an option in the app to opt into the beta, which let's you try an overhauled new version which improves on a lot of the old usability issues.

I use this. I've used it for a few years. I love it. Plenty of skins, downloadable DSP Pack for additional audio controls, has it's own lock screen. :good:
Thank you for your replies..
So I guess if I stick with PlayerPro Music Player ,I am not missing any other features and the sound of other players is not greater/nicer than this ?!
Stock, because there's no real difference.
the best is power amp beta version try someday
As you all know the phone comes with Google Play Music, which is fine and all but would like some recommendations in case anyone knows a better player that has better usability, looks and features.
Currently I use two players for specific reasons:
1. Sony Music (the one ported here in XDA by Ben Ling as if simple, good looking and works great with Android Auto as also let's me download better album art.
2. Musicolet which I use only for bluetooth audio as it's the only one I could find that has a propper Media Browsing implementation over bluetooth, with this I'm able to browse the Artist, Albums and Songs from my Mazda infotainment just like having an iPhone.
But in reality I dream of having a Player as good looking as Poweramp with the IDTag editing of the Sony one and the compatibility of Musicolet
Please share what player you use and why, maybe we can discover that player that does it all and looking good at the same time
I use Black Player. It's minimal, black and plays tracks in shuffle/loop better than others that I've tried. Plus the widgets have a minimalist option too.
I used Poweramp before I switched over to Spotify and I really loved the features it offered, you can try the free test version from the Playstore
Dub music player.
Shuttle + music player. It has a good ui and lots of options for artwork and theming etc
Poweramp + Viper4sound + KZ ZSR
Long live torrents MP3!!

Also love the Sony one, would definitely buy it if being sold for any phone and for me it's just lacking the Bluetooth Media Browsing that Musicolet has.
I use Retro Music Player

Pulsar music player, simple, customizable and minimal the best in my opinion
black player here . really love it cant find anything better
I really love Poweramp, but being in Android Pie 9.0 (stable) and with the last Poweramp beta does not work well, when a notification comes the sound really distorts, I thought it was the device, try other players and nothing.
The only one that has convinced me so far is BlackPlayer Ex, really recommended
The highest rated Android music player (for good reason). Been using this for years, use lucky patcher to remove ads. I also use stereo mod for surround sound and Viper4Android for the equalizer even though the one built into Pi music player is just fine.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Project100Pi.themusicplayer
Player pro. Free skins, best ui and ease of use. 10 band EQ instead of the 7 band the others have. Haven't felt the need for V4A with player pro.
BlackPlayer EX is the best play store purchase I've ever made hands down. Yes, better than Titanium Backup.
I use Neutron for local music. Way better than Poweramp IMHO. I haven't tried the black player yet though.
As far as sound quality goes, I think DSP mods are more important than the player itself. I use the Air Sauron, V4A, AML and the ACM DSP mods. V4A in particular makes a huge difference in quality. It does add a bit of latency so I wouldn't use it for production purposes however.
All great options, tried several of them, retro is beautiful too, but the bluetooth media browsing is not working correctly
Found that Player Pro and Musicolet are the only ones working 100% with android auto and bluetooth media browsing :'(
Stellio is the best
Poweramp
I have been using the latest stable builds of PA on my rooted Pie OP6. Never had a problem, and I use it many hours each week when I'm on planes and Pandora won't work.
