I have been wondering if there is a way backing up playlist on stock music player, i am tied of recreating them every time i flash a new Rom. Sometimes i also wish that there was a way of syncing my playlist on windows media player either by air or data cable and then the player in my phone could just recognize them and off it plays the songs.
I have meridian installed. I like it for music because the buttons on my bluetooth headset work with it. I realized that when I put a shortcut on the screen for a music playlist, it uses the default music player to play it. Is there a way to change this so that meridian is the default player for the music playlist?
Ok Folks before you flame me, please allow me to elaborate:
yes, i DID search (but couldn't find anything specific).
yes, I DID try several things on my own (see below for details)
yes, the things I'm looking for in specific seem to not exist in one package.
Ok, with that disclaimer, the setup
AT&T Galaxy note running Black Star V2 with Apex Launcher 1.2.2 / Android ICS 4.04. (Please note that these issues ALSO APPLY TO THE STOCK Gingerbread software that came with the phone).
Ok folks in short, I am looking for a music player that can do ALL 3 of the following (every single music player I tried, and I tried tens literally does 1 or 2 out of the following list, but not all):
1.) Pin-lock friendly lock screen music controls (my email is an Exchange acount which enforces a pin lock) [Poweramp does this well]
2.) Persistent player controls even when no music is playing (this is VERY helpful to start playing music after a while) [Cloudskipper is the only player I know of that does this!]
3.) Full bluetooth track / ID3 streaming to the stereo. I don't think this issue has to do with the bluetooth stack because the stock player and/or Google Play music both work. However, their UI (and/or lock screens suck big time)!
Software I have tried:
MixZing
CloudSkipper
Stock Android music player
Google play Music player
Apollo
doubletwist
Winamp
Poweramp
Rocket Music Player
Zimly
Songbird
PlayerPro
n7player
MusicXmatch
NRG Player
Astro Player
(and more that I can't remember off the top of my head).
Can someone please help?
PS: Sorry if this is posted in the wrong forum. I had no idea where to post it.
I'd settle for option 3 only. I don't like the stock player either, but it's the only one that sends the music info to my carkit.
I haven't tried as much as you, but I haven't found any yet that do this.
Im with you dude, It would be nice if I could see what songs are being played on my deck. But android doesnt seem to be able to send that data.
If the stock player fulfills all your needs, except for the lockscreen, why not try installing widgetlocker as your lockscreen and using a music widget of your choice?
There's two apps for playing music: Music Player and Play Music. I know that Play Music is a Google thing. Is Music Player a standard android app or is it only available on Samsung products?
I'm asking because I'm trying to backup playlists using an app called Playlist Backup. For some reason, Music Player appears to get things in reverse order when Playlist Backup saves and restores the playlists. I'd like to ask the developer for a "feature" that would reverse the order but I don't know if he/she would have access to Music Player. I also don't know if its a Music Player or Playlist Backup "problem".
Thanks

Music Player is Samsung's default music app. I don't think Android has a default music app now that I think about it...You can also control Music Player with voice commands if you enable it in the S Voice settings.
Hi All,
Anyone knows how to change default music player on KK Android?
When I click open music player on phone using android wear it opens default music player Google Play. When I freeze that it opens YouTube, when I freeze that Tunein Radio and when I freeze that finally PowerAmp.
However I want to have Youtube and Tunein installed and working. Any suggestions?
Tried the clear defaults but all above mentioned apps have that option greyed out, tired assigning PowerAmp to MP3 files and I can and it now opens when I double click but Wear still opens google one.
Anything else?
Thx for help.
