I don't think this is already integrated but is there any way to make your phone stop playing mp3s after a certain period of time? My only get about how to do this is use another app like tasker or something.

There are some apps in the Market to handle this. SleepTimer and MusicSleep come to mind. They don't work with all players on all versions of Android, though. Definitely check the comments and look for reviews before buying one.

Every morning when I get in my car I turn my winamp player and speedview app on. While I am driving I have to switch back and forth between app's to change the song.
What I am wondering is there a way to have a split screen like you can do on your home computer?
Yes before anyone says something I know I should not mess with my phone when driving...I am trying to prevent having to
I am sure someone else would have other needs for an app like this as well. Like surfing the web and texting at the same time...
bump....this has to be of interest to someone....I am willing to donate $50 for this app...

That's one thing I really miss from WebOS, the ability to control music from the notification bar without changing screens. If someone could make this happen on Android it would be awesome.
I forget what it's called, but there is an app that basically gives you an additional home screen that you open/close with the search button without actually leaving the app you are in. You can put a music widget on there and control your music with that.
Edit..... Found it, it's called Quickdesk.

Here in Holland we have to pay to listen to our voicemail messages.
I was wondering if there is an app that does the following:
Auto picksup after 15-20 secs, then plays a message + beep, and then records a message on your phone locally.
This would save me alot of cash.
So does anyone knows an app like this?
Thanks!
I have recently started using Tasker. It can completely (almost) automatically. It can auto answer calls, play files and record calls. It can be fiddly, but is powerful and should do what you want (and more).

Hmm, it's kind of pricy.
I would like to try if this program offers what I want before I pay this much for it
I suggest Google Voice, its great for voicemails and whole variety of other features. It also has the ability to convert you voicemails into script which you read from your home screen what using any minute's. Here's a link for a demo

Hope its what you need.

Sounds great, but not available in my country yet
Google Voice is not available in your country.
Thanks for visiting Google Voice. We're not yet open for users outside the US, but are planning to expand our service to additional countries in the future.

That has nothing todo with it, I can install Google Voice on my phone.
But I need to connect it to an gmail account, I have one but I have set all language settings to Unitaded states and I still get the message "your country is not supported"
I understand, the only other app I can think of is YouMail.

I can not find the app I want. Is there a way to lock out everything except contacts and phone calls? Or a way one of the ROMS can be made to do this. I only use cell phones, no landline. I do not want kids playing/texting when not allowed.

I don't think that's possible. I could be wrong though.
There is. Just get them a dumb phone. But there is nothing that will work 100% as a simple reset will remove anything you do. No apps have been made to make a smartphone not use anything. Well I guess you could get an app locker and then set up a password for each and every single app on the phone and that would make it so a password had to be entered every time the app was used. Other then that yeah get them a normal phone and call it good. To be honest that's what I did. Kids have no need for a smartphone and are not mature enough to only use it when they are supposed to. The temptation is to great to show it off to freinds and what not.
That's what I thought. I was just trying to utilize what I have.

Well you could kill the data by messing up the apns or get an app that will kill the apns at the right times. But nothing that will stop the apps from loading. I know how you feel though. Gave my boys my old tilt2 and fuse and after a few calls from school decided it had to go lol
So I assume the answer is no, but is there a modification that would allow the Slingplayer app to work like the Pop-Up video function. It really would make that feature worthwhile, whereas now it is pretty pointless. It would be great to be able to watch live TV while I used my phone for other things.
Thoughts?
Slingmedia would need to release a new version of Slingplayer to make that possible. It would be do-able for them.
Moboplayer was recently updated to add that feature so the capability is not limited to the default media player.

Slingplayer rules. Too bad I'm kinda hesitant to use as much since I lost my unlimited data

Gotcha, I guess that makes sense. I won't be holding my breath for that...
Sling is awesome and its the main reason I urgently needed to keep my unlimited data, but it would be 1,000 times better if it didn't cut off when I tried to switch to something else, or allowed me to watch it while I did other things.
I am having issues with Google Music playback. I am running rooted stock 4.1.1 and am unable to get Google Music working properly. It shows my playlist, and plays 2-4 songs, but then stops playing. The program will show the last screen it was on, with a pause button as if it was still playing. But it does not play the music, or respond to any button being pushed. I can still search through my playlist and even choose other songs, but they will not play, and it goes back to showing the last song it was playing. I have downloaded some music to the device and it seems to still play the music stored on the device. This has happened both on mobile data and wi-fi, though often more on data,

ive had the same issue, even after pinning music from the cloud to my phone. my workaround has been to close all recent apps and clear ram in task manager. it is frustrating though.
My phone does the same thing ever since the jelly bean update, I'm stock and not rooted. My fix is to use the task manager and force quit Google Music then relaunch it, like stated above. After that it seems to work properly for a few days. Sucks though because it always happens when I'm on my run during lunch and nothing kills momentum more than having to stop and do this!

Yeah, mine doesn't show up in recent apps on my task manager when it happens. I uninstalled and reinstalled Google music. Working so far.
So question, does this problem affect the stock rom as well or just custom roms. ?
This will be kind of a big problem for me since this is how I listen to all my music in my truck.
Well happened again today on my run and tonight at home on Wi-Fi, sick of this and all Google suggested was what we are trying what a bunch of crap. I'm trying something new, I uninstalled updates and returned it to the oem version and see how it goes. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Well 2 days on the oem version with no updates installed and no problems so far. Looks like this might be a temporary fix until Google figures out what's going on.

Do you mind sharing the apk?
Rebooting will also fix the problem.
Does this problem happen with other music players?
If not, what music player are working?

Just uninstall updates, it's pre-installed on our phones.

I ditched Google play when it was doing what you explained. I remember buying power amp 2 years ago. Downloaded it and works like a charm. Downloads the cover art for all my music. And the equalizer brings out the best sound from my oem s3 ear buds.

It might be easier for you both to just post which version of Google Music you have installed. If you're on two different versions then you can troubleshoot better.

Technically you already have two music players pre-installed which is the stock player and Google Play. People end up downloading other players as those have better sound with and without audio enhancements along with good headsets. I also at one point had a play back issue so I downloaded another player and had no playback issues.
