Hi, is their a equalizer in the music app on this phone? i cannot seem to find it
No there isn't unfortunately this is one of the things android has been lacking for a long time.
Sounds like osmething i can look into them myself. Any third party music players that have built in equalizers?
Nothing yet.
It's incredible to have this advanced OS, and this marketplace with 1000's of programs, but no one music player, which has equializer....
Is this an OS limitation, too hard to implement, or just simply noone had this idea yet??
By the way, I'm ready to donate to anyone who comes up with a working and good EQ for the Desire...
Astro Player Beta, BoomBoxoid both have EQs?
No experience with them, might be worth a look though?
i tired both this morning.. astro seems very basic.. no album art etc.. but works and the equaliser has an implact..
so does Boomboxiid but its almost to slick... caused my phone to lock up a few times and the player isnt that responsive so i uninstalled it.. stil though at least proves an equaliser is possible..

Any new music players with good equalisers?
A standalone EQ app (or widget) would be better than a player with eq built in.
Reason I say this is because, it could then be applied to any app you use audio via headphones or line out, rather than only working on the audio player.
say you use spotify, as well as a standalone mp3 player app. Would be good if you could use the EQ on both...
I have installed barebones latest rom. So now I have to find a good music player. Whats your suggestion?
I like winamp but i dont think that makes it the best Doubletwist is also worth a look.
The stock player is a pretty fine choice too.
I use Fede's player, maybe it's not the best yet, but I like it very much.
i personally like playerpro the best, but mixzing is also quite good
If gapless payback is important to you, poweramp is your only choice, no other app does it properly with mp3's. I am not a great fan of the layout though, I prefer mixzing's navigation but I listen to a lot if djmixes, live sets etc...
I second PowerAmp - plays everything, and the equaliser is great...
power AMP, Winamp, Google new Android Player <- Really good
+1 to PowerAmp. Great equalizer, gapless, fade options, great music control options with original headphones.
My choice is PlayerPro, I think it has the best interface. There's a trial version on the Android Market, give it a try!
I use songbird, nothing fancy but I just like intetface.

Happy user of PowerAmp, never used any other third party players so as the stock player.
Power Amp hands down. I tested a couple of music players from the market. Fede's Player is nice. ( Metro/zune UI) < will try it again when it's finished.
As for the PowerAmp< it's worth the $, buy it.
If you are running your own server, have a look at Subsonic
Usually I don't listen music on the phone, but I tested MortPlayer and default player.
Both seem ok, but MortPlayer is better, even in beta version.
new music player on gingerbread....think its google default player for 2.3.3 ...its really neat and nice..
I'm using Poweramp and it's the best one.

I'm torn at the moment. At first I really liked Poweramp, mostly because the ability the boost the preamp helped with the low volume problems I was having when listening to it in my car. However, after purchasing Volume+ I found that I no longer need that boost.
Zimly by far has my favorite UI, but I've been getting a lot of crashes on it. I'm also considering bTunes, as the part I miss the most about my iPhone is the media player. I'd be curious to hear if anyone considers that a favorite
I also love Poweramp really much.
Bought it.
It plays my music collection at home, has a great equalizer, and now even supports Beats audio - whaddya want more?
Lol, it supports now beats?!?!?! I used to have it, but then I removed just because of the beats. Stock is good, though.
I use winamp because I'm old school I can't say it's especially different to any of the other players I've used but I stick with it anyway.
For audiobooks I use Mort Player Audiobook, now that is a very impressive app! Pity it looks so ugly but I'm sure it will improve.
I've been using PlayerPro for a while now and really like it.
I have been using Winamp since its release. So far it is a good and simple player. Besides I'm using the desktop Winamp player, which enables me to sync my music via the app wireless.
PlayerPro, because I can browse my music by folders.
I've been using Poweramp for a while and I love it! Its flawless!
Google Music. And I also using unlimited data plan
I'm using stock music app, it's good enough for me

I can't get it to download album artwork, even though the stock music app has done this and it shows in the stock app... Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong with Power amp?
Stock Player and Google Musik is good for me
Stock HTC Music player, because it is the only player that support special audio effect
I don't listen to music so much on the phone. (All the time on the PC!)
However, there are a few listed media apps here in case it helps anyone.

I am using it too, for me it is the best player ever D
Im using the HTC Player too. But thers one thing, I'm not happy about. Where is the "Coverflow". It was included in older Version. Is this function deleted or am I stupid?
For me, the best one is 3 (Cube):

PlayerPro
______________________________
stock sense 3.0 music player for me. every music player ive used had a problem for me; always automatically playing,skipping, and pausing, when a headphone is jacked in. i uninstalled all other music apps. i only have stock player now. stock palyer aint so bad, the quality of the sound is almost the same as from other music apps.
I'm looking for something that shuffles by albums and preferably has a 5x1 widget for 7.1.1.
I have been out of the loop for music players for quite some time and I have been using Rocket Player for the last 4 years. I am looking to upgrade to something that might be a bit better.
Apps I've checked out:
Player Pro
Rocket Player
PowerAmp
I've been a huge fan of GoneMAD music player. It plays flac, shuffles (not sure if by album), and has a 4x1 widget. It is paid but there's a trial version you can try.

It's expensive and I'm looking for more apps to check out so I can pick the lightest one to save power.
Shuttle is pretty sweet. I've used it for over a year now. The free version is great, but I liked it so much that I threw the dev some money for the Shuttle+ version or whatever.

Yeah I've been liking Shuttle++ quite a bit although I would like if they changed the pixelated looking status bar icon and made the play controls for the notification nicer like Sony music. The widget options are the most extensive I've found though. Artist artwork came through much easier than Sony Music too.

Best Player overall is Black Player (EX)
Most customizable, and feature rich music player.
In my opinion, its well made and looks damn awesome.

The other thing Black Player EX does that I like is editing is really user friendly. some of my MP3s don't have the artists name show up and I can make that happen with Black Player EX. Player Pro allows that as well but not as user friendly.
You might ask the guys over in the billion post Android DAC thread at Head-Fi.
If anyone knows a good player, I'm sure it's them.

edit: wow, 8639 posts as of today. Not quite a billion but it'll get there someday.
After reading this yesterday, I did a little comparison last night. Used Freebird for guitar run, Stevie Nicks for voice, and full song of Jessica by the Brothers. Compared paid versions of Poweramp, Black player EX, and Player pro with DSP pack. They are so similar it's hard to pick except Poweramp has the least distortion at high pre-amp settings on high frequency sounds. So below is my ranking (just my personal opinion):
1. Poweramp
2. Blackplayer EX
3. Player Pro with DSP pack
Still using the P2 Xl, but I don't want Google Play Music. I want a player that only plays files I loaded into the phone. I know Google Play music does that but I don't want any "services".
Thanks

Works well for me.
Thanks, I also saw one called Black Player that's been getting good reviews
Pulsar is by far my favourite
Poweramp
For my needs, I use Vanilla Music player. It's basic and a light footprint.
Highly recommend poweramp
Poweramp all the way! - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xsoftstudio.musicplayer.pro
Been using it for years and never disappointed, especially with the new GUI changes they've rolled out.
Close 2nd for me would be : Player Pro - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tbig.playerpro
Another neat one, but kinda cluttered is N7 Player - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.n7mobile.nplayer
Hope you find what works for you. Everyone tends to lean toward the cloud services, I still like loading my own music on my phone as well
I'm a fan of Shuttle. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=another.music.player
Power amp is my Fave , plays flac files also , Highly recommend it :good:
Pulsar is my favorite player
PowerAMP, been using it for years.
Also shuttle. It's free software as well
Look, get Poweramp and enjoy forever. There is no comparison. I've been using it for more than 8 years maybe. Tried other players only a first few years, then I stopped venturing out.
I like using Eleven music player https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-lineageoss-music-player-arm64-t3784730

Neutron. The gui might need a material redesign but the app itself is great for sound quality.

blackplayer ex
I've tried and tested them all as i got over poweramp after many years with it . In the end, poweramp owns.
And its latest beta update is even better than ever!
Musicolet is my second favourite , but in the end poweramp just has everything you need.

I really like the Sony Walkman app! Try it out
Thanks to all! I have been using Black player but will try the others mentioned too.
