HTC music player no longer reads internal storage?! - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For some reason no stock music player will read my internal storage anymore! I tried flashing different ROMs but none of the stock music players will read my internal storage, has anyone else ever had this issue? What can I do to solve this? Thanks.

Never seen this issue. Do other 3rd party music players such as Mixzing or "3 (cubed)" read it?

Yep Mixzing does read the internal storage... but the stock HTC music.apk is still a no go

Hmm, perhaps it was the ROM, it wasn't working on 2 other ROMs but after installing Myns Warm Two Point it seems to be working again!

[Q] Google Music not working on ICS 4.0.3 CM9, b.0.2.3

Hello!
I can't play any song on Google Music app with the ROM ICS 4.0.3 CM9, it always force-closes the application. Anyone else with the same problem?
Didint try that ROM yet but it works for me with sandvold's latest. Did you try other music players like poweramp, winamp etc from market?

Oh sorry never tried that. I was thinking of normal playback from SD card.
I am getting the same thing. I have tried moving to /system/app, removing stock music app, as well as several versions as well, as has been done on other ICS devices, with no success.
I updated to b0.2.4 and i'm still having the same issue
I was in the same boat, but the only way to suceed is to use a 3rd party app.
For example DubbleTwis is a really good one
The problem is being handled in the main thread of this ROM.

[Q] Music player bug

The problem is while i'm listening to music and open the gallery app the player stops the song and start the next.
I am on stock rom and using stock music player, could this be because my memory card? Or just too bad phone for multitasking?
Thanks!

its not the multitasking bad phone for sure.. that's what i can say... i do that and much more all the time....
move your music player to phone memory, then you will be sure its not the memory card
and as the last step try another music player... there are many good ones ... i personally use Uber Music

The music player and the gallery app is on the internal storage, maybe i try to reformat my card, on my desire, recording 720 also lagged, then i reformated my card with 32 swap and now it works.
Ok so i find it out, the gallery app listed some avi files which caused the problem, i put a .nomedia file inside the videos folder and now it works.

[Q] ICS / 4.0.4 (.431) music library empty / led not working

I installed ICS 4.0.4 .431 (LT18i_4.1.B.0.431_Generic World Greece) a few days ago on my Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S, It works smooth and nice, except a few small drawbacks, or is it?
First of, The led doesn't seem to be working other than when I turn on the phone or put it on charge.
It doesn't light up when I get sms/mms, facebook, gmail or any other notification. I have checked the settings in every one of these apps to see if I have missed anything, but no. everything is correct in settings. Am I missing something, or is the led not working on 4.0.4 ?
second - "music library empty" ??? WinAMP worked fine on 4.0.3. WinAMP does not work on 4.0.4. All I get is "music library empty". PowerAMP works great. But in PowerAMP I can choose music-directory. Also in "settings when I want to choose a ringtone (MP3) it also say "music library empty". Also this worked fine in 4.0.3. What am I missing ? What am I doing wrong? Both LED and WinAMP worked on 4.0.3 but not on 4.0.4
Anyone else experiencced this "problem" ?!?
Where does 4.0.4 expect to find the music-files? I have my music-files on the sd-card in a directory named "music".
The LED issue is a known problem in the ICS 4.0.4 update. There are talks about an update coming which would fix this problem.
And I can't really help you out with your music issue. I use the stock music app and I have no problems. Uh, try clearing cache and data for WinAmp.

I can't use stock music player due to the issue "music library empty". Not really sure what's causing it.
I thought about wiping cache and dalvik, but since I came from a fresh install, then I didn't bother with that.
Thank you for the info on the LED issue
Go to Settings -> Apps. Find the Music app under ALL. Then wipe data and cache.
Hope it works.

I tried. It didn't do any good.
I wonder what it could be, It worked on 4.0.3 I haven't changed anything besides upgrading to 4.0.4

I have the exactly same problem tried everything but music is there and is not there also the same happens with old photos i cannot see them anymore on the gallery they are on sd but not on gallery
Check if you have a .nomedia file in your music folder.
It prevents android from looking for media files in that particular folder. This includes photos, music & videos.
Just delete it and all should be fine.
@daniel090588, the same thing applies to you.

Thanx for helping out
I searched my sd-card for .nomedia files. I found a few, but none in sd-card/music However I found one in sd-card/Android ??? not sure if that one's been there before ?

I just found out that the same goes for me. I can't see pictures in my gallery either. I could see 4 pictures. Those four I have taken since I installed this 4.0.4 but none of the other pictures. I searched for them on my SD and they are ALL in the same directory SD/DCIM/100ANDRO but still only able to see the last four pictures taken. However I can see them ALL when I use "QuickPic" A great app to view all your pictures with.
I did a reset on my phone now. Just to see if that helped, and it did.
Now I can see music in stock music player. Also my stock photo gallery is working.
I guess the problem I had came from my titanium backup restore.
I wonder what it could have been ?
Thanks it works

Thanks! It worked for me (CM 7.2 - HTC Chacha). I deleted all the .nomedia files and .nomedia folders.
Also I had to delete them twice.
Go to settings, applications, all
Find the Media Storage app, and clear data.
This deletes everything! artists, albums, playlists. (data still on card)
Plug in, mount usb. Eject. Go back into music, and wait (a lot if you have more than a few tracks.)
Note: If the music app shows no changes, try force stopping the Media Storage app. The app showed no cache or data to clear, but force stopping it then opening the Music app worked for me.

Any feedback?
I had the same problem of media not showing in walkman music app in my Xperia P. I deleted the .nomedia directory and restarted the "media storage" app from the settings and it worked.

[CM10] Play Music & Gallery can't find files

This has been a somewhat reluctant problem in CM10. The media scanning in the JB build of CyanogenMod has been iffy at best. No matter what I do, music and gallery can't find my audio, video and picture files. I can confirm the files are in fact existent on my device and 3rd party apps, such as PowerAmp, find and play my files okay
I've tried clearing data of gallery and media storage and rebooted but no-go. Does anyone have suggestions or possible fixes?
Thanks in advance.

Muffled audio with earbuds and screen off?

Hi everyone. I have had an issue with specific Roms, mainly sense based but some cm /soap based as well. When playing any stored music ie. Music player or any player from the market, and turning the screen off, the music literally slows down about 30% and gets distorted. It does not occur when streaming music at all ie. Pandora, FM radio or google music. Seems to react similarly whether the file is on internal or external storage. Happens with all headphones and my headphones work normally on other devices, to rule out the obvious. I am currently running sd sense 7. Any ideas?

Did you ever flash hk mod?
Last year I did with a different rom. I believe it was one of vipers Roms. But not on my current rom no.

I think that you currently have BoomSound audio files in the rom and the HK adsp installed... I suggest you to reflash the stock adsp or flash the HK mod again... :good:
Edit: as you run sense 7 rom i suggest you to flash stock adsp instead of the mod because it might be incompatibile...
After trying a bunch of different music players, I found that PowerAmp works. Seems odd that even the majority of the apps on the market have the same problem. This still just seems like a bandaid to the problem and I would like to figure out why I am not able to use the HTC player.

You answered yourself you flashed hk mod and then another rom, so probably you have hk adsp and BoomSound files... You need to change your adsp back to stock or flash again the mod to get hk files... As you are on sense 7, i suggest you the first choice just to avoid incompatibilities...
Flashing hk-bs-switcher-4.3 and choosing bs stock seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks
