Is there any way to change the default music application, so that when a Bluetooth solution triggers the Incredible's music player, it is something other than the stock?

not positive, but what if you renamed the .apk for music to .apk.bak and renamed the music player you want to the default music player name? Seem's reasonable.

Hi guys,
I really like the default music player because it shows you the album art on the lock screen. However, I can't find out how to enqueue a song or album to the now playing list. It always replaces all the songs currently playing and I don't want that.
I tried playing a playlist and then adding stuff to that playlist but that doesn't work either. Anyone got an idea how to do this or at least a music player replacement with the lock screen controls?
Thanks!
Oh, I forgot: On the Windows Mobile HTC Sense (Manila) Player this worked, so I'm thinking this feature must be accessible somehow.
Anyone?
You can hold down on a song and Add to Playlist, but you can't enqueue anything to add to what's currently playing.
To be frank, the HTC Music player is really poor.
So which player are you using? Does it have a lock screen?
I have the same problem on my HTC Magic since I updated it
I don't like the default Music player of the HTC Desire, majorly because it does not support Unicode characters well. In most of the time I use an alternative player (QQ Music). Unfortunately, the buttons on the original headphone are still controlling the default Music application. Is there any way to change the program they control?
Thank you
Is Google Music the default music app on the SGN? (i.e. open a .mp3 from explorer, what is the default app that should open)?
Reason I ask, is my phone doesn't know how to open a .mp3 and Google Music is one of the apps I removed. It pops up a list of two apps I've installed when I select a .mp3 file. (ES Music player, or XiiaLive) but nothing for the stock music app.
Yep. It should open in Google Music by default.
Google Music will not pop up as an option if you have disabled it...
Hey guys,
Currently using the Hellkat ROM but I had the same "issue" with JediMindTrick.
Issue is, even though I set Poweramp as the default music player in Android, some apps withe the option to launch music still uses the ROM stock music player when using such an option.
Example, Apollo is the stock music player in the Hellkat rom and after installing Poweramp I set it as my default music player. But when I select the music icon from within the Runkeeper app, it launches Apollo instead of my default player.
I searched for quite a few hours today and found some information related to "intent". I'm not a DEV some bare with my ignorance but tis apparently a way for devs to link to a stock app from their application.
So since Runkeeper and other such apps aren't giving the choice of which app to use when selecting the music icon and start the stock music app instead, I was wondering if there was a way to change the "stock" music app, by editing a conf file or something...?
Thanks!
Download an app to remove system apps from the play store and remove the offending app. It will usually clear the defaults if it's properly uninstalled and you can then set your default music player to your preferred one.
go to settings >> apps and get app info for the stock music player. clear the defaults and see if that works.
if not you can download titanium bavkup pro from the pla store and delete the default player so your phone has no choice but to use your preferred music app.
Does anyone know if it's possible to select which app functions as the default for Bluetooth media controls? I use Google Play Music as my primary music player, but my bluetooth media controls always invoke the stock media player. Before the 4.3 update, the Play Music app would respond to my media controls. After updating and hard resetting, the stock music player hijacked my media controls. I know it's possible for another app to take over the controls because I installed PowerAMP temporarily and it took over my media controls.
Is there any way I can get the Google Play Music app to take over the media controls? Is there any way to disable the stock music player?
