Titanium Backup and Google Play Music - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

So I've been debating on which rom to use now that I'm rooted again on my GS3 on Verizon and I was wondering if Titanium Backup will backup the Google Play Music app and all of my music. I have a good amount of music racked up on this thing and don't want to lose them. Any way around this with another solution or will TB work?

I'm confused, why would you have to backup Google Music Play when it's all cloud based? It should be uploaded to their servers and always be there.

So when I have to do a full wipe to install a new ROM for example and I install Gapps, all my music will still be there?

All your music will still be there in the cloud, you'll just have to download the songs again since they will be deleted from your device.

I think I did yea. What are the steps to uploading it?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

You either have your music in iTunes or a folder on your computer, correct? You download Google Music Manager on your computer and tell it where your stored music is, and it takes over. It uploads all the songs to the cloud so you can access them from any device your Google account is linked to.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

Either way you should be fine. Any locally added songs(transferred to your phone, not pinned) should still be there and any you pinned from the cloud will still be in the cloud, though you will have to redownload them.

Okay that's all making more sense, thanks! Although I ran into an issue and that is that I can't seem to download my library to my PC from the Music Manager. I hit download then it just sits there. Do I have to upload something first?

Try this: clear Google Play Store application data from settings>applications>manage applications, scroll down to Goggle Play, click "clear data", and then open Google Play Store app again. This just worked for me. Tested by purchasing a paid app -went through like normal!
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
I had a similar issue but couldn't download any apps. To fix that I had to clear the data from framework in addition to play store. It worked after a reboot.

I agree with apex. Clear data. And also uninstall updates. Then reinstall updates.

Hate to say it, but if its that important you may need to factory reset or FXZ and re-do all your setup with installation of your rom. But, before flashing, check Google Play and see if the problem still persists. I doubt it would.

You're running a version of Google Play Store app that isn't the newest version. You can download this Google Play Store version 3.7.8 .apk and adb push into your system/app folder. That might do the trick...

UPDATE: Here's a link to Google Play Store 3.7.11 which, I guess, is the most current version of Google Play Store app for Android 2.3.6. It's supposed to be "faster" than the link I gave you for Google Play Store v3.7.8. Download and install just like any other .apk -and enjoy!

You can dictate text messages, tell it to play any artist or song from your music collection, ask it the whether, to search stuff for you. I like the voice activated music more than anything for driving.

Saying GOOGLE has worked for me in the past. You have to have hot word detection turned on in the settings. I have not used it recently, but it is definitely a sweet app.

Images are missing from gallery ?

after flashing cm10 job rom images are missing but the files are there present on SD card so what to do now.
Thanks
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
If your pictures are not appearing in the gallery you might have to wait a few especially if your just installed the ROM (it may haven't "seen" those files yet). You can also try Clearing Data/Cache for the Gallery app. Another thing you can check is to make sure there isn't a file called ".nomedia" in the folder containing your images as that will "hide" them from being seen by the Gallery.
I hope this is helpful:
I'm not sure this will work, but sometimes my songs wouldn't show up in the Music app. I accidentally discovered that by renaming any random file on my SD card (via some file exploring app such as ES File Explorer) it refreshed my music library and all songs were rediscovered.
I'm not sure this will work for pictures, but it's worth a shot. Definitely do the usual troubleshooting...clear cache etc.
Will try this but I had installed ROM last night they haven't shown up yet

Play edition Galaxy S4 leaked, new camera app

OP/Pics link here -- http://phandroid.com/2013/06/27/and...leaked-new-camera-app-available-for-download/
If you needed any further proof that Android 4.3 was, in fact, real and headed to Android devices in the very near future, look no further than the leaked screenshots nabbed by SamMobile. What you’re looking at is test build of Android 4.3 (JWR66N) for the Galaxy S4 Google Play edition, running on a regular ‘ol Galaxy S4.
While we don’t know specifics involving the exact changes from 4.2.2. to 4.3, it’s said we could finally see Bluetooth improvements, as well as that new fangled camera application currently found on the Google Play edition HTC One and GS4 running 4.2.2. When it comes to the camera, that can already be downloaded/sideloaded onto your device like any other app. Works without a hitch on most devices.
Download here-- http://www.mediafire.com/download/8tu1o85d21a61i7/camera.google.play.edition.apk
Instructions to install:
1. Download the camera.apk
2. Use a file explorer using root(example root explorer)
3. Copy and paste or move this apk in ur system/app
4. Reboot
5. Walla!
