My voicemails are downloaded as amr files. The stock htc music player says "cannot play this type of audio file". Poweramp plays the files but they're so distorted to be unintelligible. There is some info on win systems but very little that I can find for android. Is there an app, process or way to hear them?
I've looked around a bit more. It seems a problem with 2.2.

This thread link discusses exactly my problem. The running theory expressed there is missing codecs. Perhaps one of the developers could help out?

Has anyone ever run into the problem of typing in a url in windows media player for a radio station, and it saying "locating" "connecting" and then "playing" but no sound. I can play audio files that are stored on my device, but not ones I am trying to get from a stream .asx like this page "http://www.woxy.com/stream/wma20.asx Am I doing something wrong?
My info:
siemens sx66
rom: 1.42
ext:1.42.126b1 (Fr:sx66 cust. page)
radio:1.13
I have tried it with the factory rom & ext. and radio also. no luck.
I own an internet radio station: www.rockaces.com
all is ok,but there is no way i can listen to my own station using the HTC TOUCH HD.
Is there a plug in that i can install so i can listen to it?
(well,me and anybody else who would like to listen to my music using his mobile)
Thanks!
This seems a little bit like an attempt to promote/advertize your internet radio stations; however, to answer your question, this is what I use
First I find the internet radio stations that interest me and load them into winamp on my desktop computer
then I save the playlist for that specific radio station and name it accordingly
then I transfer the playlist to my mobile device into a folder I named "Internet radio stations"
then I load the internet radio station into one of my media players capable of playing streaming media
I use TCPMP as this streams the best for me; however, WMP works also and I am sure there may be others out there.
I even created shortcust to my favorite internet radio stations in my Ultimate Launch Setup - I have a dedicated page for Internet radio - Sirius radio and audio/video players I use
Hope this helps

NO ADVERT
This is not an advertisment!!!
It is a simple question!
I dont need this kind of advertisment anyway!
My site is just my hobby!
If it is possible,enter my site (with your htc touch hd),and try to listen to the on line radio,the way you would do it if you were using your home pc ot laptop.
If you can listen to it,please let me know how you did it.If you cannot listen and you get the message 'invalid....' and you have a solution,please let me know.
www.rockaces.com
That is all i am asking!
For some reason, I cannot open the website on my desktop. Just keeps trying and trying and trying but nothing
I use gs player - free cab can be found here
Never had a problem with it and I listen to a small radio station in Ibiza.
Also just checked out your station and i got it.
Open gs player, then go to file/open url and type 78.129.196.104:8074 and its all OK and working.
Might not be the easiest way but it works for me.

This method worked for me - Clicking on the Winamp link on your website allows you to save the playlist to your desktop. I then saved the playlist for your radio station to my device and opened it with TCPMP and it worked fine for my device this way.
Thanks a lot!
Now i can refresh my site with the information!
I'm well aware of the codec switch to stagefright in froyo. I've even written gscripts to disable and enable it on the fly. However, no matter what rom I use now, even with stagefright enabled, my same old radio mp3 streams now cut out far too often. If I disable stagefright, the streams won't even start.
Is anyone else experiencing this with mp3 streams and have any other fix I'm unaware of? Sadly, I'm about to go back to 2.1 until the codec is fixed in one of our builds to retest both slacker/pandora along with my mp3 streams in Cherry Rplayer or Stream Furious.
Thanks.
i was wondering why pandora just started to sound like utter crap.
Just an update for anyone with Streaming problems... I did end up going back to 2.1 (Damage Control 3.2.3) just until the google fix is released for 2.2. It's supposed to be fixed already but they are working with partners to get it released to the public.
Not only is there a problem with apps like Slacker and Pandora on 2.2 when stagefright is enabled, after researching more, pretty much all apps used to stream mp3 high bandwidth station streams are broken. I listen daily to 64kbps CBS and Greater Media stations through apps like Cherry Rplayer and Streamfurious and they constantly cut out and/or stop. Also, even with Stagefright disabled, I experience more pauses in 2.2 with Pandora/Slacker, whereas 2.1 is flawless.
This is just a sanity check for people who may also be experiencing these issues with mp3 streaming apps in addition to Pandora/Slacker.
i have this problem and its pissing me off as well...
I searched and couldn't find another thread about this so here goes...
Got a new bluetooth car stereo and my music and calls sound great, but my EVO doesn't transfer the track title/artist/album info to the stereo for some reason. I know it's not the stereo itself as my friend paired his BlackBerry and it showed the track titles. Tried this in stock music app, DoubleTwist, PowerAMP and unrooted on 2.2 and rooted w/CM7. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Possibly just answered my own question but if anyone can confirm that would be great...it looks like the EVO only supports AVRCP v1.0 so far?? And if so, is there any way to upgrade the BT profile to 1.3 or 1.4 to allow for metadata transfer? Again, thanks in advance.
Yeah... the evo bluetooth profiles fail.
I'm currently using PowerAmp and love it...I know that metadata xfer is and has been working for stock player for a while, but does anyone know if this feature is available on any ROM besides AOKP? They're dropping support for us :crying:

If you're using a new phone with bluetooth 4.0, AVRCP 1.3, metadata transfer will not work until the music player devs update their programs. A rooted phone may work. For non rooted we are at the mercy of the devs, and poweramp has been promising an update for over a year now.
I tried searching but could not seem to find anyone talking about this here. Ever since 4.3 came down for my Tmo Note 2, I have not been able to listen to my .wma audio book files. I had been able to before the update. Anyways, I just thought I would throw it out there in case anyone else had noticed this and if anyone could direct me to a fix to add the wma decoder back to my device.
Thanks.
