i suspect that will go down now with Ubermusic out. its awesome. smoothest music app i have ever used. and that is coming from someone that is a hardcore poweramp user.

I'm using subsonic

I am using PlayerPro

Coming from an hd7 which has an AMAZING music player, i think ubermusic is pretty close to it. It's a near zune clone and works awesome.

I have not tried Ubermusic yet, but out of al players I have tried Playerpro is hands down my fav. Skins, customization, Album Art/ Artist Art Sync and the Equalizer option . Smooth,Looks great too.

i just took a look at PlayerPro and it looks hella slick I currently use AudioGalaxy, as i have over 14 gigs of music, and streaming it seemed to be the best option....ah decisions, decisions..lol

Ubermusic is also good app.
PlayerPro or Ubermusic.. hm..

I have a few to choose from, thanks guys!
I am going to try all of them and pick which one suits me best.
Keep the suggestions coming. You guys are awesome with the help.

I used UberMusic on my Xperia Play before I sold it and I want to use it on my Sensation but I'm still using stock because it has the SRS option. Are there any other music apps that use SRS?

Can't stand poweramps awful skin looks old school but ubermusic is eye candy and playerpro gets you both a nice interface and look combined with nice features I like it because the lock screen controls work great on sensation and you can long press volume to switch songs

playerpro. Liked it so much I even paid for it.
Regularly updated, and the dev works from his bedroom and is a nice guy, speaks to you!

I'm using subsonic

Is there demo version or try before you buy version of Ubermusic anywhere?

I use the Volume + app. It boosts the volume from your speaker, headphones and bluetooth device. It also has a more than decent sound enhancer. I really don't miss the stock srs sound enhancer, that came on my HTC sensation, with is app installed.

Ubermusic is great been using it since first alpha build and it gets better and better each time

PlayerPro has been great for me.

i have tried poweramp, playerpro and other music players on my desire hd but i stuck with htc's own player.
i guess i really didnt need the extra features these apps offered and i really like the stock elegance of the htc player, even more on the sensation.
though i liked the look of the lock screen widget of the older sense more.

google music 3.0

try miui music. that seems to be all the rave. I personally love the 2.2.1 com.android.music.apk... but don't know if its compatable with droid x.. can be found in the eris forums under development/froshedyo/version 7. long press volume to skip tracks but a similar UI just no visuals so it runs smooth

Doubletwist with AirSync.
PowerAmp. Best player out now, sound is terrific, and the EQ allows for audio tweaking to fit anyone's taste. Costs 4.99 in the market, but is definitely worth it if you care how your music sounds.

I use Winamp
Its free on the market
It can do wifi sync if you have Winamp installed on your computer
I use mSpot. Its an awesome cloud based music player
+1 More for PowerAMP.
Lithium user here...and I personally love it.
The UI was just so original that I had to have it. I even went through the trouble of asking the dev to put it up on SlideMe market...as my bank won't allow charges in a foreign currency.
*OT*
Goddamn market...I swear...please convert currency FOR ME so my bank allows me to buy foreign applications...Too many times; I've wanted an app...but had to pirate it because it wasn't in the market or SlideME.
Player Pro (Paid) or Lithium Player (Paid). I hate the stock android player - no intuition whatsoever. I hate Apple products but the iPod/Phone music player is very nice.
I didn't hate the stock music player, but I downloaded the "leaked 2.3 music player apk" and I love the look and feel to it. With that app open, it feels like I am on an actual mp3 player and not a phone.

Glad to hear it. Mine worked amazing up until changing a few phone files for theme-ing. Now my music skips when running in the background if I'm doing any type of navigation on my phone (scrolling through apps, looking through facebook) Have you run into anything like that with the leaked app?
I use the winamp player, its pretty good

I've noticed this. Also, tons of forcecloses with the honeycomb music app.
One of the forum members on this site leaked a new motorola media player, its been reviewed on several droid blogs to be great, but apparently Motorola made him take it down.
tried real player yet? its not bad

Whats your sensation MUSIC set-up look like?

Im huge into music, I dont play an instrument or anything but I listen to music from the moment i wake up till i crash.
My phone plays a big part in that so im curious to hear what others use on their sensation for music? Music app? do you use another kind of equalizer app? what kind of headphones r you rocking?
I use Gtunes music, MP3 downloader, Music mate
I use fede's music player/ubermusic

Ubermusic is great with the Zune skin. I also love Google Music.
Poweramp is brilliant with lots settings.

Maybe google music beta doesn't suck on the sensation, but It had problems on CM7 cliq/encore.
I will give it a try.
I bought PowerAmp and it's been great for me.
stock for ubermusic (looks/runs great!)
but after reading this, im gonna try gtunes and poweramp
...also, does anyone else find it annoying that the music task in the notifications DOESNT have prev/next track, just pause? i really wish they would implement those buttons so i wouldnt have to sroll over to my music widget just to change tracks (...as if thats such a chore )

As a virgin Android (almost) user...
I am curious about the music player aspect. I made a post enquiring about the use of after market headphones (like Sennheiser) for iPod, being able to use the inline controller - but it seems that has limited success.
Are there players that have track advance by 'shake' or something else that doesn't require you to take it out and turn it on/off etc. to simply change tracks..?
Any insight appreciated.

PowerAMP all the way!
Also using it's equalizer, since it works with BT headsets as well (using Sony DR-BT100CX headset at the moment, used Motorokr S9-HD before).
It's a phone so, as such, I don't use it as an iPod - I have one of those for that

Yeah thats the reason i tested the iphone waters. I listen to music all day and its a pain in the ass to carrying two devices and having to worry if there both charged and stuff, it was just easier to get a 32gb for my android. Also, i love all the options you get with android, I dont have to stick with the stock plain ipod player.
Love Pandora volume + and stock headphone keep me happy all day at work.

Google Music has worked well for me.

Google Music, followed closely by winamp.
The only thing I like about the stock HTC player is that you can operate it at lock screen and notification bar. Other than that it doesn't have anything else.

For music I am using Music 3.0, which has a background that changes colors randomly. Considering the market recognizes it as Google Music, I assume it is, even though it looks nothing like the one in the market. For video, I use MoboPlayer.

I use PowerAMP and love it, very good, customizable, great EQ with presets and the ability to make your own presets, and native FLAC support. I haven't used GoogleMusic though, I got an invite but it turns out Linux isn't supported yet and it's just too big of a pain to move my music from my laptop, I have over 100 gigs.

Have you tried installing through wine? ?
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
Yeah but I couldn't get it to work well. Wine and I have never been good friends lol. It's very few and far between that I even think about using it. I could probably get it to run ok if I spent long enough toying with settings but with PowerAMP and a 32gig SD card I'm happy enough with how much music I have. If i ever really want something of my computer I have a VNC server set up on it that I can retrieve files over.

Best Equalizer w/ Music Player out there

Cut that Beats crap, thats no where close to a real Eq. You want to hear what real music was supposed to be like?
You want a powerful music player that has equalizers for nearly every aspect of your song?
You want to get the recently released jetAudio app. This music player is the most feature packed one I've seen and tried yet.
It is a player that is for Windows and it was recently ported to Android.
I blast Dubstep though my headphones daily so I needed a nice Eq for that. This is the best sounding player I've seen in a while.
It supports nearly every format availible, has insane amounts of equalizers, can change the speed of song, different effects (crossfade, cut, etc), can post to twitter/facebook for what you are playing if you want, has some fancy animations and more.
If you are looking for a music player then use this one.
Play Store Link (free): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jetappfactory.jetaudio
It is currently recently released so it may have bugs. From what I've seen its working 100% though.
Also, if you want an ICS themed music player, check out the Apollo app from CM9 (google around to find the apk). It is awesome as well and is themeable (it only has a dark and light theme as of now though).
Thanks, great find! Looks nicer than PowerAMP.
Great!
Looks great, I'll definitely give this a try. I just wish they decided to use the Holo theme rather than going for a shiny-iPhone skin... but I'm OCD!
Any idea if the headphone controls actually work with our phone? I haven't had any success with even playing/pausing using any other headset :/
Anyone have any feedback as far as comparing this to poweramp+beats?

Wow, amaaaazing, how awesome that JetAudio Basic player is... (And for FREE! Not just 15-day-trial like PowerAMP free version... )
Get JetAudio Basic and rate it!
Anyone got an idea how to get a JetAudio Basic-widget on the homescreen? Like a mini-player with play/pause? :/
Loving the eqs on this, just wish it could work with my play music since I don't keep much music on the phone since no expandable SD card :/

Without BBE+ this player is not that great, however BBE Sound Inc. will soon come out with there own player app for Android soon, some time this year.

Best Music app

I'm currently using poweramp, good for equalizers and album art, however I've only been using it since switching from Vipers, which was using the HTC sense music player, I absolutely loved that one... Appolo could be much better in terms of album art distortion, Google Music Player is pretty decent but not as good as miui music player, all opinions of course
(side note: if anyone has a way of getting the HTC music player to work on cm10 I'd love to know, or if anyone knows of a similar music player)
Happy flashing!

IMO, the best music player is PlayerPro. been using that app for years now. has a customizable EQ, swipe gestures, features like crossfade and gapless playback, syncs my songs with Last.fm, has skins/themes, etc. I have the paid version, but check out the free version first
PlayerPro Trial https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwyLDEsImNvbS50YmlnLnBsYXllcnByb3RyaWFsIl0.
