The soundhound that came with the sock sense is came with sound hound that allowed live lyrics when listening to a song
I think that was awesome
However if I try to take the apk from a sense ROM to aosp it does not have that feature.
Anyway to get that back?
Does anyone even know what I'm saying lol?
EDIT: Ok, sorry for typing on my phone!
The SOundhound version that comes with stock HTC sense (at least it did for Rogers) had an option called live lyrics. Once you detect what song is playing, it will tell you the lyrics that the singer is currently singing as well - just like karaoke
I tried downloading soundhound from the playstore and it does not have this feature. I tried copying it from the HTC sense roms that we have here and it does not have this featue.
Im going to try to restore my very first nandroid backup and see if i can extract it from that, but otherwise i cant seem to figure out how to get it!
You could download it from Play Store. Just google for 'soundhound play store'
Can't post the link due to forum restriction.

This is what i did but the play store version doesn't have the live lyrics
If it failed to install, then it is dependent on the framework.. the only practical solution is to go back to sense. It'd take way too much effort to get it working

the point is to keep everything together like music and books instead of having Google Music seperately and Google E-Books seperately. It's for ease of use. But i have to say the name just doesn't work. I'm sure i'll get used to it.
To OP: I know it updates automatically, but a link may be helpful for some:

it is 5 times faster than the older version for me it is perfect )
Yes that's true! The speed of Google Play is impressive comparing the old Market's speed! And only that is enough for me to be happy with this update!
The only good thing about switching to Play thing is that I can now see viz and pics in market, as they used another pool of IPs, which has not yet been blocked in my "democratic" country. ^^
i have a question, i recently reinstalled my ROM and i have the old market again
i was wondering hot to get it back? it updates automatically or manual?

For me, it updated automatically, so just be a little patient
If you live outside North America, you might not even know, that SoundHound contains LiveLyrics feature, which shows you synchronized scrolling lyrics as the recognized song plays. However, this feature is not available outside USA and Canada. Therefore I decided to do something about that, and this is the result. Now you can also enjoy LiveLyrics in Europe, Asia, or anywhere else. Just run Lyrics Enabler instead of the SoundHound app.
You should know a few things about this app:
-You need to have SoundHound installed (either Free or Paid version, doesn't matter) in order to make it work. No, I won't make it for Shazam.
-Make sure that you do not run SoundHound before Lyrics Enabler. If you do, close SoundHound first, or it won't work.
-The lyrics will only show up if they are available in SoundHound, so test it on some well-known older hits first.
-You can immediately start the recognition by holding down Search button for a while. Launcher shortcut is also available.
-The app is not guaranteed to work with future updates of SoundHound. I will do my best to keep it working, but if I cannot make it, there will be no refunds after they block it. If you want to be 100% sure that you won't lose your money, dont't buy it .

With what version of SoundHound doest it work?
The most recent?????
sony xperia ray ics 4.0.4
stock rom unrooted
How good it is like really good or what?
Sent from my LG-E739 using Xparent Purple Tapatalk 2
Tried with;
v2.7.5 (not working)
v5.0.2 (not working)
v5.1.7 (not working)
and I cant request refund
I beleive that they changed something on the server, so for some people it won't work even with the old versions of SoundHound. I will work on some better solution. If you have purchased AFTER the change and never seen the LiveLyrics, just send me an e-mail and I will refund you manually.
I live in Amsterdam. My Samsung Galaxy S3 (Jelly bean 4.1.1) doesn't show LiveLyrics and a in a sony ericsson x10 mini (Gingerbread 2.3.7) works like a charm, both showing same location inside Soundhound (v5.2.1a)
How can it be possilbe?
No free version?
working nice for me and I am from India.

For some people it does, but for some it doesn't . I have too much work lately, and LyricsEnabler is on the very bottom of my to-do list, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to work on it anytime soon. Just try the current version, and if you can't get it working, send me an e-mail and I will refund your purchase.
I know this is probably not the best question, but I have no idea where my music player is. I flashed a Custom ROM of AOKP Milestone 5 on my i9023 Nexus S, after rooting successfully. I installed Gapps and no hope. Play Music is not here.
I know someone will say, download it from the play store you idiot, well the Google Play Music app that's on the Play Store isn't available in my area (Australia).
I have no idea if the app on the play store is the same as the one that comes pre-installed with Stock ROMs or not.
Can someone point out what's wrong and explain the difference between the two apps (Stock ROM pre-installed and Play Store versions).
Cheers
Also another question...
I know that a NANDroid backup backups everything on your device, INCLUDING the ROM. Is there a good software that backups up only the information and media on the device (ie. Contacts, Events, Alarms, Pictures, Videos, Apps, Settings) without backing up any system components such as the ROM?

Follow this link, it's the same as the stock one. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.music&hl=en
About the second question, contacts are synced with google, events are synced with google calendar, alarms are easy too set anyways, pictures and videos dont get wiped anyway, apps are backed up using titanium backup, really good app, and finally system settings differ in different roms, so i suggest you dont restore settings between different roms. hope this helps!
Oh my pictures and vids got wiped because I used Fastboot mmhm, ok.
You cleared up a lot for me, however that App is not available in Australia. I said that in the first post
"This app is incompatible with all of your devices."
From Description:
"* Available in the U.S. only."
You're from Australia you should know
http://awesomescreenshot.com/0859w9qc9
open the market link with ur phone and try, or get 'market unlocker'
the /sdcard partition only gets wiped when you unlock the bootloader, so next time you flash a rom, you dont have to wipe /sdcard, but you still have to wipe /cache and factory reset via recovery.

and also, the music app only plays local music, no online purchasing nor syncing, but since you store music on your /sdcard you dont have to worry about losing any songs
Thanks I already had market enabler, I thought I had to put a VPN because my VPN software DROIDvpn wasn't working.
Now I understand:
To install the app I just need Market Enabler, to fully sync music I need VPN
By the way, I don't care about syncing music, I wish I could thank you but I used up all my thanks.
Thank you man

So... I really the Google Sound Search widget and I love the service a lot more than Shazam and SoundHound.
But everytime I restart the phone, the app gets disabled and I have to go to the Google Play store and activate it manually. Thing is, the app works perfectly and the Music store is available in my country. Heck, when it recognizes a song, I can even buy the song.
So... what's the problem? How do I install it permanently?
I have the same problem. Anyone gets answer to this?

There's one solution so far
Download and install Modaco Toolkit for xposed framwork. Of course you u'll need root.. And so far no donuts for Lollipop.
I have a similar problem...the widget crashes once then is broken after that. Can't get it to work at all.

I've been looking at Chinese smartphones for a while but haven't yet taken the plunge. However, a colleague of mine asked me for my opinion and I nudged him in the direction of the X2, as it would have been what I would have gone for had I gone for one...
He went for it and I am impressed. But I didn't realise (probably niaively) that it would be so dislodged from Google. Obviously not completely detached, but there is no Play Store, G+, Play Services etc as you will all know. I've been on XDA for many years and I'm somewhat of an HTC fanbuy (see my sig :laugh so I know all about unlocking bootloaders, rooting, flashing custom recoveries, firmware, custom roms etc so I am absolutely fine doing all that. He has brought the phone back to me and asked if I can help him with it; basically give him a more "westernised" Android experience I suppose
So once unlocked, rooted and flashed the (apparently) only custom rom available (KangVIP), am I able to flash a gapps package to it? And if anyone has done so, would you please be able to point me to the right one to use? He tried adding google apps from the built-in appstore but they don't play nicely (I wouldn't expect them to), presumably because the framework isn't there
Coming from a long list of mainstream devices, it's amazing to me to see a subforum with only one of two threads I understand the lack of support isn't due to unwillingness though; just a lack of owners and developers. I've been on XDA so long because of how helpful everyone is and I try to help others where I can from my experiences and techy logic
I would be extremely grateful for a little bit of advice if someone wouldn't mind :good:
Thank you all
PS - The device is the 16GB 703L and is currently running the B106 update (EMUI 3.1)

When you install the play store from the Chinese App Store it installs the Google Framework. The only two things you need to install are the Play Store and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter. You can download the GoogleContactsSyncAdapter here:

Thanks for this. I did read this in another thread actually but I was reading so much that it got lost in my brain somewhere
So at the moment play store is installed (I don't have the X2 with me at the moment). Play store won't load because of not being able to authenticate with Google servers. Also G+ doesn't work for the same reason and obviously sync doesn't work. So am I right in thinking that one sync adapter will solve all of that? If so I'll sort it tomorrow for him :good:
Thanks again

I didn't have to do anything on my new X2 other than install the play store and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter. Go into settings---Manage Apps and clear data for the play store and see if it opens. Mine opened no problem and I was able to sign into my Google account from there. When I opened maps it asked me to update Google play services and when I did the play store would no longer open. So I installed the Google play services update, rebooted and everything worked fine after that.

Excellent... Thanks a lot! I forwarded the link to him and told him to download and install it and he reports everything is working. To say he is grateful is an understatement. I was bombarded with messages at 2am saying how amazing it is
Just need to help him get rid of all of the Chinese bits now. Changing default apps and keyboard, launcher etc. He's not really interested in rooting which is a shame because of all the system apps I'd like to clear out for him but if he's happy I'll let it go. No good for my OCD though. I like a clean ROM myself

Have him install Swiftkey, Textra and Apex Launcher. Those are some of my favorite apps.

Swiftkey is standard for me so that's a definite recommendation. And yes something along the lines of Apex or Nova will improve it 1000%. At least then he can have an app drawer and either hide the stock Huawei apps or put them into a folder, never to be opened again
Messaging-wise he's already using WhatsApp but I'll mention Textra anyway
Google Play and Apps on X2
Which model is your friend having ? Mine is the GEM-702L and it comes pre-installed with Google Play and apps.

Textra is the best. I gave up swiftkey for touchPal. Also, love Buzz launcher also. And for emails, I cant give up on CloudMagic.
