Hi Guys,
I'm looking for some app to play mp3 songs on my X10.Have Poweramp full version but it gives an error "Too many falied files,playing will now stop" if the mp3 file is not playable.
It then has to be reinstalled to play any songs further.
The only reason I sticked it was due to its awesome equalizer which coupled with good earphones produced excellent music.
I have also tried Music Player Pro-full version and winamp but lack of equalizer & punchy sound makes them dud
Any suggestions please?

My suggestion:
do NOT play corrupted files and stick with PowerAMP. I've tried almost every music player available for Android and in the end I've bought PowerAMP. I need good equlizer as well and PowerAmp is just the best (not only in terms of equalizer).
Btw.: I've been using it for quite a while and the problem you mentioned in 1st post occures when you use cracked version of it. I've installed cracked version to try it before I decided to buy it and it gave me that error. I've never encountered it since I've bought it. So if you don't have it bought, just do it. It really worth that money. If you have, make sure you're using the original version available on Market. Eventually, you can try to send me that song causing the error and I will try to play it on my device to see what happens
as borecz1 said, i have tried EVERYTHING out there!! and since i have been moding my phone and re-flashing roms so much latley i am still on the "trial" version, but intend to but the app once i've finished tinkering!
What i would dearly love (dev's..!!) is an app that can access the internal EQ settings on my x10i. I have seen a few that you can use with your PC, but i'm blown if i know what numbers to put into each box.
An app with access to the internal EQ, perhaps with a preset or 2 would be my very next purchase!!!

Anyone using the Honeycomb music app? Im giving it a try it installed just fine for me. Works good and looks really nice. Give it a try, just google it.
Just got it. it works great and is better looking than the stock music player.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
where is the apk?
Just Google "honeycomb music player apk". A bunch of links out there.
I like the player but the thing I miss is the ability to use the Inspires Dolby or SRS sound enhancements. They really make a difference.
I'm using it. It's pretty nice

Sometimes a really good pair of IEM's will cure the need for sound enhancers. IE7/8, Westone UM3, Shure 500 series. These top off the rack IEM's are why i love digital music.
i tried a couple of places but it never installs right for me
I just installed it two things bug me though. I there any way I could get it working as a replacement for the stock music player? Like making it work with the lockscreen and work right in the notifications area?
It's much better than stock even though it can be glitchy.

You would have to remove the stock app to make new one default.
I get the pause and play buttons on the lockscreen, is that what your talking about.

It must be because i'm still using sense. I'm going to flash a different lockscreen and see if that fixes it.
I removed the stock apk and sideloaded the honeycomb music player Is there a specific way to replace it instead of that?
where have you guys gotten yours? i want to use it but it never works
Had a couple of questions on the Youtube HD playback issues.
1) There is a lag in playing Youtube HD videos in both the app and the browser using Flash. Flash 10.2 with HC 3.1 claims to fix the browser playback issue. Does the Youtube app also use Flash for playback ? Does HC 3.1 fix the app playback issue also ?
2) The YT app has an option called HQ, but doesn't specify if its 480 or 720p. Any idea what resolution it plays the video under HQ option ?
Any takers on this
I like better the mobile site version of YouTube and it plays videos a lot better than the full desktop site version.
Both have lagged for me (the app and the mobile site). I'm pretty sure the YouTube app works without flash installed, so not sure how a flash update will fix it.
I'm going to download the latest Flash when it's released (10.3) and try it out.

That's interesting to me at least. The CNN app plays videos in full screen without lag or chopping frames, while the native Youtube app does lag and they both don't use flash. This makes me skeptical, if 3.1 would fix the issue with the playback lag in the app.

Not really, performance wise. We need honeycomb 3.1 and flash with hardware acceleration!

That's right, the 10.3 can be installed on 3.0.1, but the hardware acceleration stuff is for 3.1+
The other things this update have are security fixes for 3.0+
The 10.3 update seems to pretty much fix my Youtube lag problems. And a lot of the update might be for 3.1, but the release notes indicate it enables hardware acceleration by default on 3.0+ devices. So it should have helped you guys.
Strangely, the choppy playback in the app seems to be a non-issue on the Xoom, even on 3.0.1. So, makes me think what the issue could be on the Transformer
after updating to 10.3 my web flash seems smoother... even at 720p its definately watchable and seems decent... the app seems to still be a bit choppy... maybe not as bad (hard to say)...
Don't know if this has been mentioned yet as a workaround for the youtube app stuttering but it worked for me.
Install Dolphin HD and set the user agent to iPad.
Then when you touch play on a youtube vid choose Dolphin HD again if you get the app menu. DON'T CHOOSE THE YOUTUBE APP.
Dolphin should then load the default media player app and play the mp4 stream off of youtube instead of using Flash. Most HD vids were a lot smoother for me.

I'm working on a review of the Transformer and I emailed my ASUS PR rep.. speaking of Youtube, I asked him about this and his response was:
As for 720P+ fullscreen playback in Flash, this will be fixed in 3.1 as it will allow Hardware Acceleration for Flash, so for once Adobe is waiting on the OS guys to implement something first.

Yes, that would fix the flash playback issue. But, how about the playback lag in the Youtube app ? Does 3.1 fix it too ?

OK I returned my TF at PC Richards today and got a replacement. The speaker volume out of sync is gone in the new piece. The Youtube app playback is also much better in full screen, although it still lags for some videos. Also updated to the firmware .9 and things seem to be smoother. The audio fidelity also seems to have improved surely in this new piece. I'm more happy now
Does anybody experience this too? I have a media player at home setup as an SMB server and it's connected to my wifi router. I have a collection of movies there that I play thru MX Player or Dice Player. Every time I play my HD movies, they lag. The only time I can play it flawlessly is if I reboot my Infinity. I've tried downloading memory cleaner, cache cleaner, temporary files cleaner and still it doesn't play my movies right. I didn't experience this before CROMI - X.. I was also in early version CROMI at that time it was working perfectly..
I hope someone can help me solve this issue.
Thank you.
Use BS Player.
Out of all the media plays I've tried on Android, thats the best.
Was using it on my locked tf700 last night. Plays HD (1080p) fine over wifi. Could even play 1080p on my N7 with that.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that later.. But I think the problem is not in the app but in the system itself. It wasn't like this before and all video players were working perfectly.

In my experience, it was good, and is still good om the 4.6.x versions. Have you tried cleaning your caches, and clearing app data? Do you have a lot of media on your 700? (I recently had an issue with the media scanner going haywire after a clean install.)

Nope, I'm using Data2SD and haven't used 50% of my storage (32GB). My movies are being streamed from my media player to my tablet through my local wifi. I tried clearing everything and it still lags if i try to play a movie unless i reboot it.
Up! Anyone else who can help me? I just want to play my videos smoothly. I also tried not using DATA2SD to see if that's the problem and unfortunately, it's the same. I think it's the way the new OS handles cache and ram but I don't know what else to do after clearing the cache, temp files and ram.

Good news indeed! I completely forgot that the router may cause the lag.I was constantly looking and restarting everything except the router for weeks now.
The problem:
My M8 is having difficulty playing music with sound. When I try to play music on the phone, the song will play. However, there will be no sound coming out from the speakers.
What I tried already:
I tried using a different music player. I downloaded Shuttle+ and tried to play, but I keep getting the same issue. Sometimes, when I reboot the phone, the stock music app works properly, but after the currently playing song is done, it would again play but not produce sound. If I go to the Shuttle app and play a song while the song plays with no sound on the stock music app, the Shuttle app works fine. But then after the song is done on Shuttle, I have to switch to the stock music app for sound to come out properly.
I remember how Google limited SD card functionality (my music was on my sd card). So I transferred the songs onto the phone storage, but I still have the issue. Then I figured that the issue might be my mp3 files. I deleted them all to try to isolate the problem. I tried playing song from the Google Play Music app and it appears to be working fine. This morning, the google play music also exhibiting the same problem. So even Spotify is having the problem. The music will load and the slider will move to indicate the song is playing, but again no sound. I tried deleting the data of all the music apps I have and they still do not work properly.
I have xposed modules installed so I disabled all of them and restarted the phone, but the problem persists.
Also, the boomsound speakers are functioning properly. Youtube videos and regular video files play with sound. I only appear to be having problems with music.
Phone modification:
This is probably really important to figuring out what the issue is. My phone is rooted and S-off. I have xposed installed with the following modules: forced immersive mode, greenify, keepchat, nfciconremover, snapshare, unicon, youtube adaway.
Other than that, the phone is stock.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
EDIT:
Solution
I performed a factory reset and started all over to isolate what modification caused this music bug.
Turns out, it was flashing the Tethering mod located here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708548
If you are currently experiencing this problem, go back to pure stock OR simply flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2731893
Now, if you still want tethering, install this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715671.
I can confirm that installing that will give you tethering and not break music functionality!

As noted in my post, I tried using both the built in music player and an alternative 3rd party application. And I do not think a factory reset will benefit here because I have checked every setting and already reset the data on the music applications.

My wife and I are having this same problem. It happens with Amazon and Google's music player, and maybe others; however, I have never tested them. It will play one track, and then the following tracks will keep playing; however, now sound will play through the speakers or head phones. I thought it might have been something I installed, but my wife started complaining about it on her M8 too. We just got them April 26th. I rooted and S-off both of them the same day. I have been working on mine mostly, but have done little to my wife's M8. I have been searching for a solution, but have found nothing. The weird thing is if I leave it alone for a while, it will randomly play tracks and then stop again.I can play Audible books all day long with no problem. I have yet to find a solution.
Rob
Edit: My solution was to install ViperOne ROM which fixed the problem; however, I see the OP has found a solution to the problem.
I have kinda of the same problem. If I start playing music with Google Play Music and then just stop/close Google Play Music. Then later on if I try to go back to Google Play Music it will play but there is no sound. If I try to use the HTC Music app, it will work again, but if I stop/close HTC Music app. Then later on try to play music with HTC Music app, it will play but there is no sound. Ill have to go back to Google Music for it to work again and so on.
So freaking weird!!
I thank God for am not having this weird problem.

Big thanks! I recently had to get a new M8 under warranty & I made the grave mistake of updating my firmware before I gained s off so now I gotta use sunshine. I haven't got around to paying the $25 to gain s off. Meantime, I flashed my backup of ViperOne which I had on my previous M8 which had H/K enabled. Luckily, I kept the H/K enable/disable folder so I was able to flash BoomSound with no problem. Everything functions properly now!
what is OP coz i have the same problem
thanks mopperx2
