[Q] Motorola S9-HD question - Desire Accessories

Hi folks,
I have an HTC Desire running InsertCoin HD/Z port 1.8h ROM at the moment. I have just bought a Motorokr S9-HD and so far it's working reasonably well.
The major bug I have with this is the music control feature. It seems to start Meridian player and control that instead of the default HTC Music player I have already running. It has a weird effect of both music players streaming two different songs at the same time! Ever heard Evanescence and Ottmar Liebert playing at the same time? Not nice!
Anyone else encountered this problem with the S9-HD or any other bluetooth headset?
Thanks,
D.

I installed the new android music played on my desire and noticed if I'm using the default player and use the controls on my pair of s9s it controls the new player.

That sounds promising - where can I find this music player, and does it have widget for the default HTC lock screen?
Thanks.

Try the PowerAmp music player app, it has a dedicated BT button management and I'm loving it with my Motorila S9.

TouchFlo3D: Music Player & Sony Bluetooth

Hello,
I'm trying the TouchFlo Music Player on my Touch Pro (Sprint), and the controls don't seem to work when I use my headphones (Sony bluetooth Dr-Bt160as). If I use the controls when I play music through Windows Media Player, they all work. It's just the TouchFlo Music Player that has problems.
Is there a setting somewhere I'm supposed to set to get the controls working from my headphones?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

BlueTooth controls in Music works in 2.1 ROMs

hi all...
i dont know if this was posted before...But I know there were many others like me that was looking for a way to fix this.
I am running DC 2.07.2 ROM...with Plantronics Stereo bluetooth headset:
I am running Meridian Player, and I can control the play back with the controls on my bluetooth headset.
Next song
previous song
pause
play
This might work on other music apps too!!
It does not work (bluetooth controls) with internet based music apps like: Pandora and TuneWiki.
before it would only control the HTC Music player. If I tried before while listening to music in any music player; it would start another playback in the HTC music app. I would be hearing 2 songs at one time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is great!!!
THanks to Damageless and his devs!!!
I am running Fresh 2.0d and I use Mixzing Lite connected by bluetooth to a JVC BT-1 headunit. In the past I would have the same problem where using the bluetooth controls would start a new instance of TC music and I would have two songs playing at once.
With Fresh 2.0d the bluetooth controls work with Mixzing with one catch. when I press skip it will skip two tracks. I'll here 1 second of the first track adn then the second will play all the way through. Now sure if it is a 2.1 issue, a JVC issue or a Mixzing issue. Not a big deal though. Just happy I can play and pause.
That's really good news for me. I had given up on ever being able to control a 3rd party music app. Thanks for posting this!

I use Phantronics Voyager and it only skips 1 song at a time.
You should download another music app and try that. I recommend Meridian Player

Bluetooth controls in mp3 player

Hi
I have tried this question in the htc hd mini forum but no answers so I have moved it here instead and hope tha someone has a answer to this.
I have a problem with my hd mini and it is to get player control with bluetooth.
I have tried the wolfman patch and it did work to the extent that the default player didn't popup when pressing player controls on the headset. But it did not stopped the actual mp3 player it only moved me to the home screen.
I have tried the avrcp agent and that did not work either.
Does anyone have any suggestions for this or another good mp3 player that works with the bluetooth headset I have tried s2p, coreplayer, gsplayer mortplayer and pocketplayer in pocketplayer I only gets mono sounds in the headset.

Sound quality stock player vs. alternatives

Hello guys,
I would like to ask you, if you consider the sound output of the stock player better than alternative players (PowerAmp, PlayerPro etc.). I came from Galaxy S which has excellent sound output in stock player but alternatives were not so good.
I´m using Koss Spark Plug headphones. I don´t use stock player because of non-customizable equalizer.
What do you think?
I used to use Winamp but I use the stock on the Sensation mainly due to SRS Enhancement. It makes my Moto H17 have actual bass

I'm coming from PowerAmp Pro on HD2, using stock app on Sensation4G and couldn't be more pleasantly surprised. I'm an audiophile listening to flacs in all this and couldnt be happier
stock players seem to be much better than purchased apps now. my vibrant had SRS, G2x has DTS (Dolby), and this has SRS? sweeeeetness didn't know that. wow i shouldn't have bought power amp 2 days ago...
But SRS has not extra options has it? Is it possible to customize it a little bit?
interesting I have not reyes the stock at all been using poweramp out the box. I'm gonna try the stock though.

@KillaHurtz,
How do you play flac in stock player? I recently bought PowerAMP to be able to play flac (and PowerAMP is very oke). As far as I understood flac is not native supported in Android (3.1 seems to have it added).
the stock player should have a equalizer if you open up the stock music player and up in the top right you can select the SRS or equalizer

Just saying that's my normal prefrence, sorry if I miscommunicated that.
I use Player Pro /w DSP pack so that I can have a pre-amp on top of my other EQ settings, that player pro offers normally.
Stock Music player has pretty good sound output, my only complaint is no customization options in the EQ/No Pre-Amp = Not loud enough for me or customizable enough. Player Pro is both!
I used to htc player but it does not retain the position of the song, when I listen to a mix that lasts 2 hours it starts from the beginning every time
do you have the same problem ?
this stock player sounds better than my poweramp. think im gonna use it for now.

Music Player Recommendation?

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.
