Hey guys,
Since I started using this handset I noticed a delay of anywhere between minutes to hours from the syncing of files before they were visible in galleries.
Didn't bother me too much.
At present I apparently have no media.
I am using the following;
- photos / HTC gallery
- music / N7 player
I have no photo albums or playlists within these apps.
Files are on the sdcard, root explorer has no problem loading them.
My last played playlist is still active in N7 player and I'm currently listening to it, but I still can't access my library.
It started when my battery died, since I charged it up 24 hours ago and after multiple reboots and third party media scans, still nothing.
Any ideas?

Hi all, I've got a problem on my HTC HD2 (running NexusHD2-Gingerbread), however this doesn't seem to be a rom related problem as I flashed with a different rom (based on the Desire) and have the same issue.
Basically it seems the system wide media library (so not an app issue) is using the Artist Album tag rather than the album tag in applications such as Winamp, Power Amp, and the stock player. As a result when I select albums in these I get a long list of single track listings for each album for any compilation albums that I have on my SD card.... this is driving me insane because I cant then easily play a whole compilation album.
I have been using Android builds on my HD2 for months now and never had this problem before, it's only stated happening with the last two but different builds I have used.
Any idea's please?
Thanks
Seems to be a common problem.... http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5938
Hello there,
After my 16 Gb SD card decided that after I removed my phone from the PC in USB Hard Drive mode to become corrupted in some way, I decided that I'd check out HTC Sync to see what I could do to make sure that I kept my collection of photos as up to dat as possible.
Picture synchronisation is great. Works fine and takes mere seconds to hook up.
My problem comes down to music... and it's probably because I'm an awkward so-and-so.
I use FLAC for all of my music, with the exception of any iTunes and Amazon MP3 music I buy. It might be bulkier on the capacity requirements but I prefer it over MP3. HTC Sync won't sync up .flac files it seems and it would mean switching to MP3 or finding another way of doing this.
Anyone got any suggestions on how to sync flac files? The best I can think of is renaming .flac to .mp3. AFAIK, it should not change the file content or quality and should play normally through an app (PowerAMP in my case)
I use a very handy app called Syncness. It automatically copies all new files (regardless of format) in nominated folders to a specified spot on my pc each time it sees my home wifi ssid, or when I manually hit the 'sync now' button within the app.
It's a bit tricky to set up at first, but the developer is without doubt the best I've encountered on android marketplace and responds to questions extremely quickly.

Thanks for the tip!
App costs and is 4 stars, but a lot of negative reviews lately. It does not inspire me.

Hey. WinAMP can manage and sync your music library to Android device (even without WinAMP mobile app) and you can use default music player.

Syncness seems to work flawlessly on Wifi. I've only run a test sync so far but I'm confident that it will work just as I need it to.
Searched for this, seems kind of odd, has not shown in LC's ICS dev 18-02-2012 | IceSoldSandwich 4.0.3 - 3.0.0 | Black Panther Edition. Been watching that since the Inspire ICS closed and he took over. Flashed the rom on the 20th.
Installed without problems after full wipe. Initially, the stock cam worked with not artifacts on my Inspire, had normal WIP rom problems as documented in dev topics.
One the 21st I tried using stock cam for video and it crashed (if you haven't looked over the 7500+ topics stock cam crashes are normal), and after that stock cam became artifact-y.
One work around for Inspire users seemed to be changing build.prop
ro.product.model=HTC Desire HD to Inspire 4G or GT -I9250 -- allowing Angelcam to work at 8M with no artifacts.
This did work, then last night, my playlists vanished. Was able to play all music, and browse music in folders in music app (amazon mp3, google music).
Today 02-23-2012 amazon mp3, google music see no music mp3 files on the phone at all, they still are there same directories and can be played individually in google music from file manager.
At the same time as those apps lost connection to the music directory, the gallery lost all access as well.
Tried switching Inspire 4G back to HTC Desire HD no success.
Until, I stop lurking and get more posts done, this will have to do.
Gonna try and wipe and re-flash ROM, see if that changes anything.
Thanks,
--will'm
update
After re-flashing ROM, standard HTC Dersire HD build, cam still has artifacts, yet amazon mp3 and google music can access mp3s again.
I dunno. The only thing that was changed was HTC DHD to Inspire 4G, which I just re-pushed through ADB to get angel cam un-artifact-ed which worked.
LC's ICS is awesome.
I'll re-post if this happens again with something more than just that build.prop change.
Thanks,

Hey guys,
I've got an odd problem with samsung stock music player on my note 10.1.
Every playlist I add to the device is (dis)played upside down. At first i suspected isyncr, which i use to sync my Itunes with the note, to be the problem - but it turned out it is not.
I already did the following:
checked the m3u playlist isyncr generates with a text editor - everything fine
cleared data of stock music player
cleared data of "media storage"
created a playlist with a 3rd party player (amazon) => reverse order in samsung player, correct order in poweramp, player pro
created a playlist with samsung player => reverse order in 3rd party players (amazon, poweramp, player pro)
searched the internet and xda
asked samsung support for help - twice
Internet knows a similar problem with samsung fascinate without any solution, here on xda i found an old thread which i suspect describes the same problem on a different device (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1404735), but also without a solution or idea.
I can hardly believe there is such a bug in the stock music app and hardly anyone steps into it. I also find it hard to believe that samsung had this bug in Fascinate's music player, fixed it in the Galaxy S2's (which i also own and doesn't have this problem), just to re-integrate it in the Note 10.1.
Samsung support is not able to give any qualified answers and rather tries to force me to use kies (which I even tried, but despite its poor performance cannot help me with this problem). I will, however, try to ask them a 3rd time.
The Problem existed in ICS ROM as well as in Jelly Bean, which arrived about 2 weeks ago (XXBLJ9).
Any Ideas what I could try next?
If you read this and don't know an answer either, you can still help me by verifying the problem on your note 10.1 - just create a playlist with for example amazon mp3 (playlist, not album) and open it with samsung stock music player. Would be great, thanks in advance!
Greetings,
Oliver
Okay...seems like nobody has an idea how to solve this...no problem.
You can, however, also help me by just trying it out, takes about 1 minute of your time...is nobody using the stock music player and any other player?
As Internet isn't full of complaints, i suspect that it could be a configuration specific problem with my note. I am willing to wipe it in that case, but as it is not rooted i've got to restore its current state manually after that - which might take some hours So I just want to make sure that there's a chance that wiping helps me with my problem.
Anyone? Can (or can't) you confirm my problem?
Thanks and Greetings,
Oliver
Same issue on Samsung Droid Charge

Hi,
I have had my Samsung Charge since it came out. That problem has always persisted on my device. I find it extremely frustrating as the point of a smart phone is that it is multiple devices. I would like this to be my main music player as well since it has an external 32gb SD card and so can hold quite a bit of music.
I am not a developer (I do do technical support), just decided I am trying to figure out - AGAIN - why it does this. I just downloaded a trial of PowerAmp. Don't know if this might help you figure out the problem. Power Amp shows my synced playlists from Windows Media Player not as a Playlist but as a music folder under folders. So far I have synced just one playlist as a test. In the folder in powerAmp, it is in the correct order. In the stock music player it is in reversed order.
I paused in typing, and after syncing multiple playlists at one shot, the list in Poweramp is garbled. The first try created a single folder with all the songs from the playlist in correct order. Now with the sync of multiple lists, I do have a couple like above but the rest either didn't come across or the music came across but not the playlist. The stock music player also has just some not all of the playlists I synced. The music is all in reverse order.
To me this suggest that problem is with the implementation of the sync on the device itself, given you have the same issue. My guess is it reads and writes the playlist from bottom up. I think there is also a burrering problem since it never seems to bring all my lists over and if that happens only some of the music.
Hope this helps, would like very much to know if you find a solution. Samsung is close to losing me as a customer over this. I care less about browsing and connectivity and more about multi functionality. A music player that works is important to me, and am considering an HTC or maybe even an IPhone (!!!) next time around just because of this - and my next upgrade is in 60 days. I HOPE YOU ARE READING THIS SAMSUNG!!!

Hi Oliver,
Just discovered that my Amazon MP3 cloud player has all my playlists I just synced (except one) and the songs are all in the correct order. This is confounding to me as I previously had the same reversed order issue in this player. Not sure if it has anything to do with the fact that I went into the file system dorectly and deleted all the contents from themusic related folders before doing the sync for that one then multiple lists. Not sure what happened with that one list, might be related to the fact that it is a custom CD mix ( old school club music, I need the beats for running!). Am going to try syncing that list as I really like the music that's on it. This would seem to contradict my thinking above though. Seems the issue is with the Samsung stock music itself, not the sync. HTC/Apple here I come...
Galaxy stock mp3 Player
I have Samsung Fascinate and it has the same problem with stock mp3 music player. Songs on playlist are reversed. I also tried a few other players but they are not convenient.
So as previous says we can use Amazon mp3 player and widget. It works good for me. It remembers when I paused and even after reboot. So decided use it. It doesn't interfere with other programs (I use in my car navigation app - Navigon). So its very convenient listen music and have navigation.
Hi all!
I noticed a few times these years (or whatever the time I've using Google Play Music All Access) that from time to time music disappears from the catalogue, or just change the name of the album…etc, so it doesn't appear in My Library anymore.
I noticed yesterday that the album “OneRupublic – Native” was no longer in my library and in Google Play, however today appeared a new “version”, with the cover in a different color and a few more bonus songs.
As a consequence, I lost songs from my library that I had to add again, lost “favorite” tracks without notice and also play counts.
I think it should be a work around for this. I noticed this a few times, when I initially thought “Oh, I thought I had added that album to my library…” when I actually had added it but it had disappeared because of this. Also I wasn't notified.
Have you ever noticed this too?
Yes, definitely.
I live in Italy, and sometimes an album just disappears: it occurred just the other day with "Feast" by Annihilator.
Or, a couple of months ago, with "Albatross" by Big Wreck. At first it's just two or three songs, and then the whole album is gone.
That's annoying :/
I suppose it's just the record labels re-arranging their catalouge, or international music copyright... I don't know actually, but what can we do?
