Did your Xoom come with music? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have seen a video or two on youtube with people unboxing the device and going through it with everything at factory default. When they launched the music app it had music that was already on the device.
My device did not have any music at all on the device. I am not complaining about it. I would have deleted it all right away anyways. I am just curious if it does ship/supposed to ship with some tunes already on the device or not.

Mine did, a bunch of artists I don't listen to but it was still nice to see the 3d effect in the music app with all the music already there. Also is there a video player that shipped with anyone's? kinda like the music app but for videos? Cuz mine definitely did not.

Yep, mine came with lots of single tracks to show the 3D view which is nice. I will be deleting and adding my own music.

A bunch of crap I didn't want, but yes it did come with some. I have the wifi version.

Well you don't want the songs that are on there anyways. I'd rather take space.

Hmmmm I bought mine at Staples Sunday, and it did not have any. (not that I mind...)

Yup, Wonderwall FTW!

Yes it did but I lost it with the following command:
fastboot oem unlock
all gone.
Oh and I was thinking maybe it has something to do with the Verizon version but could be wrong..

mine also had music, wifi version from staples... did a factory restore and lost them... oops

Force close the Music app then open it again and it'll find your account. Same thing happened to me.
Got mine yesterday too. I signed in and uploaded my library. It just seems to suggest a bunch of music. Oddly enough it was some stuff that I had loved anf forgotten about. As for the phone app, if it doesn't show your music just reboot. The media scan starts up every reboot.

[Q] Google Music

I applied for an invitation weeks ago but never got one. Any one had any luck with this? Just wondering what the success rate is.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
boo
I got my invite a few days ago and uploaded all my music. The app is VERY buggy (still in beta). I had to resign into the app with my google account almost every time it loaded. I also noticed it would randomly connect to the network and sync 100MB of stuff at a time. I used up about 600MB in 3 days! That's a lot when you only have 2GB for the whole month.
And yes, I had the setting in the app to download only when connected to wifi checked on.
i got mine. i applied hours after its announcement. took quite a while for it to come in. im not sure its worth it though. syncing isnt smooth, it takes minutes to upload and download one song, you cant upload straight to the website like amazons cloud player. it has some potential and it fits in nicely with googles services, but dont worry, youre not missing much right now.
I got invited a day after I applied, which was about a week after it was announced.
Been using and loving it since. Enough that I might pay for it, which I initially scoffed at.

I think I signed up around the time you did. I JUST got the email yesterday. Haven't tried it out though.
Sent from the most interesting device in the world.
I applied the day it was announced and got it not too long afterwards.
I like it a lot, but my biggest complaint is that when I play an entire album (which I almost always do) from the album screen. The issue is it plays the first song, and then play bar fills, and instead of advancing to the next song, it restarts the first song, the timer keeps counting and it doesn't advance. After I manually advance the first song, everything else plays normally.
Other than that, my upload was slow, but its all up there now and streaming fine to my PC and my phone when it wants to.
Finally got it

Was just reading about this on Engadget. After the headache it took to get the leak for the last market working properly. Ill wait for the official release.
Honestly its clean and I haven't seen any problems. It isn't like roms. I installed it. I really like it lol

I loaded this up then just went in and deleted data on the market app and this is running great!
Then I screwed up and got excited about the google movies and download the new google video's. Rented Battle LA and started to play. then BAM... "cant access this video with a rooted device"... What a bunch of horse ****!!!.. I really hope someone figures a way around this.
THe DRM coding is what keeps it from running. not even sure how you would go about tricking it into thinking you have DRM

Well, I'm a newb when it comes to most of that. I just hope one of the many great dev's can tear into the .apk and figure out a way to mask the app from see that the device has root access.
I have no desire to steal or pirate movies. Just wanna watch an occasional movie on my tweaked phone yeah know.
They should be happy we arnet pirating the movies. Who cares if we root if we are paying

Had the same issue. Just went in to app manager and cleared data on the market app and rebooted the phone for good measure. Once the phone booted up I acceptef the market t&c and went back to my apps. Still could update so I just left it alone. A few minutes later I noticed the app updates available icon in the notification area and clicked on it. Once I selected the app that need to be updated it gave me the opotion to update, instead of open, or uninstall.
Dunno if I like the ui...kinda hard to navigate and find stuff.
It sure is a major change, almost wp7ish.
Guess I will get used to it.

[Q] music just stops

i just got my one x yesterday, and i am getting use to it. but this morning i found an issue that i hope can be fixed easily by changing a setting or something. i was using Pocket Cast app to listen to a podcast and after about 15 mins it just stopped. i went to play it again, and it remembered where i first started and not where it stopped. it actually did this twice this morning. please tell me there is a setting, tho i could not find it. thanks, and i look forward to falling in love with this phone.
Ok, my Rhapsody app did the same thing.. so I called and complained , I was told that a lot of the apps don't play very well with our phone yet... And updates are surely coming for a lot of apps

From what i have been reading it sounds like the HOX is killing off apps in the background due to aggressive memory management. Hopefully HTC will fix this issue as it makes the multitasking even worse than the iPhone.

Are you on the 1.73.5022 or 1.82.502 ROM? I updated with the RUU here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1649658 and cant replicate the issue using Pocket Cast app from Google Play. Did you get Pocket Cast from the Amazon app store or Google Play? Pocket Cast pulled their App from Amazon so it is not up to date Version 2.8.1 on Amazon and 3.9 on Google Play.
I was using multiple apps for 30 mins and was unable to have it stop while it was in the background. Let me know how you got it to stop and I will try and see if I can replicate it.
Aaron
I got it from amazon a while ago...crap i am on 2.8.1. Can i get the google play one? thats my next move. fwiw, i listened to it all day yesterday and it did not cut out anymore. the multi tasking issues showed up on trying to use MOG app, but not on google play while streaming. i could stream music on play, and surf web at same time. not the case for MOG. So MOG is gone.

[Q] Music Playback issue S3

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.

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.
