I loaded miui player in the system/app folder, now I want to go back to the stock 2.2 music player and it tells me that there is not enough room to copy and paste it. What do I do? Can you change the partition size of the system/app folder? Thanks

As far as I know you are going to have to remove some items from system/app like the asphalt demo hd games demo or whatever else you don't plan on using. Or move as many apps to the sd card as you can.

when i scroll down the albums list in the htc music player, i got loads of stupid folders from other programs and games i have installed, is there a way to exclude these folders so it just shows my music?

Yes. just create a file entitled ".nomedia" and copy to those folders you want to exclude. As far as I remember, you have to reboot to make it work. That's all!

Almost correct No reboot is necessary (at least in my case).

Create a blank text file called .nomedia then stick a copy of this in all the folders you DON'T want to appear in the music player.
That's how I understand it anyway, haven't tried it so I might be wrong!

Yes. An empty .nomedia file should be in every directory on your SD card which you don't want to include in your music player/photo viewer.
I attached a zip file with the .nomedia if you want it. Just extract it to necessary folders.

thanks a lot!!!
You could also install a player that allow you to specify directories that hold music. Mortplayer is such a player. Available from Marked.
I prefer to use the stock music player because I like to use the widget but
having to add a file to all directories is a bit of a pain ,
So I just downloaded mortplayer , and it works fine but you would think
you would be able to play only music from the mp3 folder by default or at least
given an option by the htc music player

i quite like this play... tried quite a few.
i have system dump file of SG S Plus music player but i cannot seem to install it on defy with Defy + Gingerbread Rom.CAn Anyone try to install or is there any method to install??? i really like the looks nd cover flow of samsung player .i have attached the music.apk file maybe anyone can try get it install
I also had a problem, when I tried to install the Atrix music player. The solution was to copy it to system/app folder (with root explorer or a similar app), change permissions and reboot phone. (Thanks to spear1403 for that advice.)

Hi,
I have an issue with migrating from 4.0.4 (AOKP) to 4.1.1 (XenonHD, stock, JellyBean, etc)... Suddenly after update all media files disappeared. I thought that I've lost them during the update, but I found them using the Root Explorer - it's still in appropriate folders on SDCARD folder (DCIM, 100ANDRO, Camera, Music, etc).
But why gallery doesn't see anything (except some icons/pictures in some folders)???
And the same for music, for example tool for assigning music on ringtones or notifications which comes together with GO SMS also doesn't see any music MP3 files!!!! Why??? Can anybody answer me, what's going on?

Look in folder DCIM, if it have .nomedia file then delete it U can also downgrade to 4.0.4 to see if it happen? Do you wipe everything. U must wipe if go from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1
1. I've made full wipe before flash.
2. There are no ".nomedia" file
Any other ideas? Does anybody face the same?

Do you have RomManager installed?
Check the root of your sdcard for ".nomedia" (Note that it's a hidden file, so make sure you have Root Explorer set to show hidden files).
If you have it, and you have rommanager installed, make sure to update to the latest rommanager, and then delete the .nomedia file and reboot your phone.
If you don't have rommanager installed, but you have a .nomedia file at the root of your sdcard, delete it and reboot your phone.
I'm also having the same issue when I upgraded to 4.0.4
I recall seeing the ".nomedia" file but after I rooted my phone I can't find it anymore. If I move my media files to my externalSD it works but unfortunately 2GB just isn't enough to hold my movies, music, and pictures.
Edit: I've located several .nomedia files on the phone. I've deleted them and rebooted my phone. Still not fixed.

Exactly the same problem. Started with a stock G'Nex with 4.0.4 installed (flashed everything back to factory and locked the boot loader), waited for the OTA update to 4.1.1, updated then transferred some music files up to /sdcard/music and then.... nothing, no music found by Play Music/Rocket Player/MixZing/whatever....
The only .nomedia file I can find in the /sdcard are in /sdcard/android/data. Deleting that plus clearing data in media storage followed by a reboot does nothing.
Looking for clues!.....

Try this. Connect it to your computer then use search to find all nomedia files. Reboot see if its fixed. If not then use kies to copy from internal SD to external then back to internal. A bit of a pain but after that its fine and dandy

Went to play some music this morning and it's all "gone", and checked gallery for images and it's the same. A solution would be great. I've been using this rom for ages and haven't changed anything?
Google Play Music can't find any music files since I flashed JB.
ICS is OK.
Other 3rd party app works fine, such as TTPlayer.
All music are in sdcard\music.

I had this before.. You should check your sdcard for ".nomedia" files scattered all over the place.
You shouldn't have one in the root directory and you definitely shouldn't have it in your music folder.
These files tells Android's Media Manager not to scan for media files in such directory. IIRC, TTPlayer (and others) do not use Media Manager to get information about media files. These files are useful if put in the correct directories.
I read somewhere that Rom Manager app put this file in the sdcard's root for no (known to me) reason. Dunno.
Yes. A botched update to ROM Manager put these files in the wrong directory (SDcard root). An update was released soon after to fix that. Just delete the .nomedia file in SD root folder and you should be fine.

Hello, i have flashed AOKP ROM to my Galaxy S4 Mini GT-I9195. There is missing music player. My favourite music player was in official samsung rom but i don't know how to install samsung's music player as a system app. Root Explorer can't move MusicPlayerWT.apk to system/app (even with root) so I don't know what to do. Someone knows how could i install it? Btw installation as normal app fails.
Isn't that player needs tw framework?
I'm afraid he's right. Stock music player wont open on different rom than stock. But if I'm wrong first if You're rooted install BusyBox and then mount system as rw (or use Solid Explorer it makes it automatically), copy apk to system/app, set permissions as rest system apps (just check any system app permissions cause I don't remember now which exactly it should be) and reboot system.
Unfortunately, after moving music player to system/app and setting permissions as rest system apps and rebooting, It doesn't show in app list.
Do You have odexed/deodexed rom?? If You have odexed You need to move also odex file but if deodexed You must deodex apk file but still it's small chance it gonna work on non tw rom.
I probably have deodexed rom because i don't see any .odex files in system/app. How to deodex it (if it even would have work)? Or is it possible to install TW framework on AOKP rom (idk is It silly idea i got)?
