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..

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'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.
What is your opinion? I have tried Google Play Music, TTPod, PowerAmp, CloudSkipper and that leftover player from Gingerbread that nobody wants
Currently deciding between TTPod and PowerAmp. The former would be the winner if it didn't have so much freaking chinese all over it.
What do you guys use?
Miui Music is my favourite.U should try it
Poweramp FTW

Well I personally like the gingerbread music player over the ICS stock music player, which is what I use (and I hate it), so I'm interested in using a different player and I can't wait to see what comes out of this post in the next few days. I usually just use Pandora when I'm at home simply because almost all the songs that play are songs that I already have on my phone, with the ugly UI for the stock ICS player.
Google Play Music here. It's very fast and smooth for me, even with 29GB of music.

Google Play Music here as well. With my music uploaded to Google Music, I don't have anything on my card anymore.
PowerAMP. The equalizer on it is excellent.
I was always under the impression that between the hardware & software of our smartphones, software equalizers are a mediocre solution at best. You can't really polish a piece of **** yanno.. maybe I just use ****ty headphones (I do) and listen to trashy music (I do), but I never had to really fine tune music coming from my phone's headphones.

Poweramp by far...however, if Google Music adds EQ and more list options like View by Folders, then I'm all in.
If you like the iPhone or iPod touch music player, you might like RealPlayer. It is not as feature rich as other players, but it's still pretty cool. Just try to forget the evil RealPlayer from the 90s.

I tried a lot of them and I got stuck with PowerAmp like many others here. The paid version is near perfect. If it has to be free I find the stock player not too bad.

I tried poweramp but I dont like how its constantly running in the background even after you close it. I didnt see a setting to disallow this.
So far Im just using the MIUI player but its a bit barebones as far as features go
Rocket Player is my fav.. has a super EQ!
Apollo if you want the apk PM me
I have tried quite a few music player and settled on Poweramp. I found once tweaked you can get good sound out of it. It is as flashy showing album art as other players. You can customize the sound to your like globally, album or track. You can have separate presets for speakers, headset and blue tooth. To the post above there is a setting not to run in background. There are a lot of settings, once tweaked it has great sound. I ended buying the pro version. My daughter loves it too. Also it will set variables in Tasker.
Everyone has their own taste and needs.

I'm currently using the JellyBean version of Google Music on my phone (he upgraded the google music player from ICS to JB in the rom I use). I like it so far, I mainly don't use other music players typically because I do not store most of my music on the phone itself.

Know what would be nice... a 3rd party player capable of connecting to your Google Play Music cloud
Hi, I really want to download a new music player, because to be honest, I'm getting seriously bored of all the HTC Stock stuff.
Chrome has replaced my browser (Thankgod for Chrome!)
But I cannot find a sufficiant music player, I had heard of Double Twist, but when I downloaded and used it, it pretty much halved the loudness of my music, which defeats the point of 1 - Beats audio technology, and 2 - Using my Beats headphones.
Why is it that using a different music player made my music so quiet?
Is there an alternative?
Can you make double twist louder?
I CHOSE DOUBLETWIST AS THEY OFFER ALBUM ART AND LYRICS !!
Thanks !

You can also use poweramp, n7 or neutron music player... they are good and especially neutron player has lots of options while n7 player ha very good ui
u can download albums in both
I agree that with the free version of DoubleTwist, the music isn't very loud and pretty flat ( I have beats earphones as well).
But once I upgraded it to the next level (the one that provides just the equalizer) and enabled the equalizer, music was much better.
Combine that with Xtreme sound enhancer mod, and it's a killer music player.
I also like PowerAmp, but I've always preferred DoubleTwist's sound quality over it.
I decided to play with the RealPlayer beta, and have actually found it pretty nice.
I also use google music to stream my music. I dont like that app much but it saves memory

But can anyone explain to me how to get the most out of my headphones/music, like... how a equalizer works? haha !
Thanks!
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.
