[GUIDE] Google Music Beta in the UK

Figure this may be useful as the stock music player installed on the Galaxy Nexus is all setup ready for the cloud based goodness of Google Music, but it's a service supposedly only available in the US at the moment.
To work around that, try the following (worked for me, YMMV):
Download the appropriate version of Tor Browser bundle for your platform from:
https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en
Install, load up the Vidalia control panel and click "Settings"
Navigate to the advanced section, click "Edit current torrc"
Paste the following into the bottom of the torrc file:
ExcludeNodes {be},{pl},{ca},{za},{vn},{uz},{ua},{tw},{tr},{th},{sk},{sg},{se},{sd},{sa},{ru},{ro},{pt},{ph},{pa},{nz},{np},{no},{my},{mx},{md},{lv},{lu},{kr},{jp},{it},{ir},{il},{ie},{id},{hr},{hk},{gr},{gi},{gb},{fi},{es},{ee},{dk},{cz},{cy},{cr},{co},{cn},{cl},{ci},{ch},{by},{br},{bg},{au},{at},{ar},{aq},{ao},{ae},{nl},{de},{fr}
(This will force Tor to use a US exit node)
Save the settings, restart Tor.
In the Tor tunneled Firefox that's now running, visit:
http://music.google.com
If you get an error about it only being available in the US, go back to the Tor Vidalia control panel and click the "Use a new identity" button (to pick a new exit node) and refresh the page. Repeat until you get a Google music login box.
Try signing in with your existing Google account - this worked fine for me but there seem to be conflicting reports about whether it works in all cases for non-US accounts.
If not, you may have to setup a new GMail account solely for Google Music use. Be sure to create the account using the Tor tunneled Firefox so that Google think you're in the US when you sign up.
Once you've logged in to Google Music once and accepted the T&Cs (maybe grab the dire Busta Rhymes freebie track to check its all working) you can ditch Tor - Google Music will quite happily now let you access and upload music from the UK.
Load up the Music Player, link the newly Google Music enabled account to it, enjoy.

thanks
streaming on my device is quite nice, but i have to wait until the song is fully loaded to start it (in Music-app)... little bit annoying

A much easier way to do it is just use a proxy website (like those ones to get around school/work firewalls). The majority are based in the US.
I used the first link that came up on a Google search to sign up for Google Music back around the time it launched. Less hassle than downloading software etc.

The only real problem is that you can't access the store, which means you can't get any of the free music or buy anything.
You still get the syncing and upload abilities though, which is quite nice. I just need to sort out my music collection now before I upload it

I know that's probably a bit stupid but I can't install the app from the market. It downloads correctly but when it wants to install the app it says it isn't signed properly or so. Is this because it isn't developed for the desire? I would like to use it until my nexus arrives.

You need to uninstall any previous versions and also make sure you clear data under application settings

Found an interesting thread about it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350164

I keep getting an 'error at line 1' message when I click on OK. Even without entering any extra text I also get it

The 'error at line x' is something to do with Windows 7 (possibly x64) editing the torrc file. Had the same issue...
Easiest fix is to go to the Tor folder/data/tor/ then open 'torrc' with Notepad manually. Edit the file by hand, save and restart Tor and it'll accept the changes fine.

I used TunnelBear on my PC to trick Google into thinking I Was in the USA, then accessed Google Music over the internet and registered for the service.
Then on my phone, I downloaded the Music APK from this XDA page and installed it on my phone.
Works fine for me for playing music on my phone and music off my computer which has been uploaded to the cloud.
Play still won't give you access to the music section though as it's not licensed still for UK use.

lol. what's the problem: i'm using music beta since last november here in germany even though its not even released here.

Hmm, used Tor and got my account linked to Google Music. I'm now uploading an album just fine, but when I try to use the Music Manager to listen to the songs, it still says it's only available in the US.

Google Music Backup

I have been downloading music so that is available to play offline. However, when I wipe my phone I need to re download all of my music(obviously). I was wondering if there was any way to back up the downloaded offline music. I have found the folder where the music is stored and backed that up, but Google Music did not pick it up when I moved the folder back over to my phone. If anyone could shed any light on the situation I'd be very thankful!

did you try titanium backup?

I use Google Music a lot recently. What I figured out to do is to move the music files (that I uploaded to Google Music) to the music folder on my phone. Since the file names, tag data, etc are all the same Google Music treats them as if you downloaded them from Google Music (no duplicates or any weird stuff). So you always have a back up on your PC. I have a folder on my PC with music I specifically upload to Google Music. It makes it easier to keep track.
I hope that made sense...

That solution is easy and makes a lot of sense. But how are you guys downloading your music from the Google cloud? I understand you can download the entire library with the Google Music Manager program on your PC and then copy the files to your device (a bit combersome), but I've never been able to figure out how to download individual songs.
I've tried to get "comfortable" with the whole Google Music cloud thing, but I've got to say, I'm about ready to throw in the towel and go back to the Amazon MP3 app. Amazon has cloud storage too, but it's SO much easier to manage on your device.

You can "pin" tracks, albums, artists, or genres to the device so its local and not streamed. They're kept cached in a specific folder for Google Music's use only.

That's the "pin" I've been looking for. Still can't find it in ver 4.1.511. I guess, someday I'll take a few days off from work and do some extensive web research on Google Music. Then I just may find out how to use the dang app. They sure don't make it easy.

Just long press or hit the triangle in the bottom right of any category (an artist's name, for ex) and hit "available offline" checkbox. It'll then start downloading to the device for offline playback.

The way Google Music app stores the music files for "available offline", it doesn't save them in a normal folder as normal file.
It saves it in it's own random filename in the /android/data/com.google.android.music/cache/music folder. So when you wipe data/cache, this gets wipe.
If you look in settings/apps/ you can see Google Music app itself taking huge space.

Theres also another way. Couldn't tell you where the option is on the Galaxy Nexus, but using ICS (or GB, for that matter) on my G2, you can hit menu > "make available offline" and then check multiple artists, albums, or songs.

Nah you're not stupid. Some things like that are quite unintuitive to say the least. I'd like to see Google keep moving towards putting functions in the foreground rather than hiding them. They're doing this with Android 4 they just gotta keep going with it.

Hello here its works great

Just to clarify: It doesn't roll out automatically, it is an updated version of the Google Docs app. If you have Docs installed, it will be replaced by Drive. If you don't have Docs, you'll need to install Drive manually.

The reason why you have a "Google Drive" app is because it was just an app update to Google Docs.
The apps update automatically, but people (myself included) are still waiting for Drive to get "turned on" for our accounts.

I can tell you right now that the integration is nowhere near the level of Dropbox. I was disappointed.
Although the price per GB if you pay for it is a lot better than Dropbox.

Tbh they're both about the same integration, just a couple of things missing here and there from GDrive.
Personally I prefer GDrive purely because of how you can create, edit and share documents, as well as use it as an online storage service. You can't use Dropbox to edit documents. If Google gets around to integrating some of their other services into GDrive then it can really take off.
At the end of the day, it's been less than 24 hours since the birth of GDrive. Give it time to settle and mature.

With dropbox, I can share a link very easily. Not so with Google Drive. There is no integration with context menus in Windows, and there is no Mac or Linux client. I am aware it is new, but what I said is still pretty true.

My drive activated about 30 mins after I installed it. Haven't tested it fully yet, but it is somewhat limited from initial impression. Also, it is a Google app so it needs some time to mature. I thought everybody knew that we are perpetual beta testers by now.

Uhm. Google Music just censored my song.

Hey guys... I'm just curious about, why Google Music censored my music?!
I bought Marvin's Room from Drake, for example, on Musicload (a German site for legal music download, powered by T-Mobile) uncensored.
Today I decided to upload my music into Google play for easy access...
Just tuned into it and it's censored now... no dirty words... is it normal that Google Music do this?

just tested it out, it isn't altering my explicit lyrics mp3s

It's probably this 'match' feature which, rather than you having to upload your copy, adds songs from Google's server to your Google Music user space. It's probably taken the clean version instead of the explicit one. Try putting 'Explicit version' on your and see what happens as both are available on Google Music

The one was called explicit version... Confusing... I'm going to delete them if it's possible... I rather put them on my sdcard than fighting for dirty words
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

This is ridiculous haha. I'd noticed it with a few songs having the odd word censored or changed, which I thought was annoying but tolerable.
Then I just tried to listen to Benoit & Sergio - Walk & Talk. All of the lyrics have been replaced with a humming, presumably because it's drug references.
Who knew Google were so puritan?

I can live with that I just don't upload dirty songs

Where do you live? I believe Google is testing the Match service in Europe. Check your labs settings on desktop version of Google music as well. I would figure it would default to clean versions and a setting to switch to explicit

Hi there,
I understand that some of your music is not being matched correctly by our scan and match service. In order to fix this, please go to your library on a browser and right-click on the song(s) that are experiencing this issue. Please then select "Fix incorrect match."
If your Music Manager is running, the actual file will be uploaded within 24 hrs. If after that time period, you're still experiencing this issue, please let me know.

Is there an option in music manager to not scan and match stuff? I have 0 desire for this to touch my music...already invested the time for a full upload. Scared to turn the program on and have it mess up stuff now. I read that it has issues matching various artist albums too, and I have some of mine configured in non standard ways that I'm guessing it would butcher (or ignore, who knows, that's the scary part!)

I also have the problem. I told them that fixing individual tracks in a 20,000 song collection is clearly not a valid or palatable solution. They had no other recourse, nor would they acknowledge this as a problem (typical Google).
I'm currently on the phone with them asking how I can submit a bug report, for surely this is a bug with how their matching is working (or not working, as the case may be).
The rep had no suggestion other than to email him with the problem specifics and his word that he would pass the bug report onto the germane team.
Unfortunately, until Google fixes this issue, Google Music is unusable for me.
@johnchad14:
No, there is no way to 'turn off' the matching feature, according to the rep I just spoke with. The good news is it won't touch your original tracks, just **** up the version they make available in their cloud. Surprisingly, it handled my compilation albums quite well.

Yeah, it *was* my online backup for music. As I don't know what they've done with the tracks now, I can't trust it as that anymore. Oh well. Not having issues with the whole thing other than worrying about the fidelity of my online collection there. Just been using my local backup drive like I used to to ensure music meltdown does not occur. Oh well!

Weird. I have like 17 gigs of music uploaded to Google music and its never edited. I'd be pissed off of they did that but I really don't think they have that right.
But... It is on Google servers.

[Q] How do you sync two Google accounts' music to one phone?

Does anyone know how to sync two Google accounts' music to one phone?
I figured out how to add a second account to my phone, but there is no check box to sync Google Play Music? The box only exists on my first account that's on my phone.

That option is currently only available for tablets only. The smartphone version of Google Music will only allow you to sync one account for your music and would have to toggle between the accounts for each music library.

Well,
Hi name is Chris. Anyways did some digging.
Unless your willing to take your devices in and pay for Domain App by a store I don't see anyway other then storing in DropBox.
Here is a quote on what I found
"misterteche says:
I employ Google Apps for Domain and have a general "family" account for sharing purchased apps then configured that family account on each phone. Nothing else is shared--no email, contacts and calendar. That solved the issue of other family members having access to contacts and emails. On my teen's phone, I configured "pin access" in Google Play so that no authorized charges are made to my credit card.
BTW, a factory reset will need to be done if you want to change the primary account Google Play is associated with on the phone."
I'm sure if you go into store you can set this up. Unconditionally you will have to pay for both cell phone bills. Married couples this probably works great.
Friends wanting to share music not so great! Google should have a friends share feature were you could listen to the song 5 times then be prompted to continue to listen to this song you must purchase it.
I'm sure with Google Apps for Domain at a store if your running a rooted phone or they would want to lock the service.

Well Sorry no buddy sharing music in Google Play

Thanks! But, I'm confused, what is "Google Apps for Domain"?
I googled it but came up empty?

Look into the app called "SwitchMe Multiple Accounts." It allows you to have different user accounts for one device. Both music accounts wont be in one app though. You will need to switch users to access the other account.

Google Apps for Domain is a service provided by phone company. Have a friend at work who set this up with At&t had to request this service at the store. Remember right he had to pay like extra 25 dollars a month to keep service turned on bewteen phones and tablet. Switch me multiple accounts i didn't mention because you had to reboot your device to access different account. The Google Apps Domain is service like any other just request it at phone booth the should be able to set it up for a steep price. Furthermore I assumed that you didn't want to reboot or have access to there email account just the music.

Dad worked for Qwest and At&t had 40 yrs as telephone and fiber optics installs. Qwest former US West now Century link is a Mountian Bell company that provides phone service for Lousiannna, Colorado and few of the southern states.
Anyways from what my dad told me you can request any service you want from the phone company but it will cost you. Now i would explain it in full but we would go off into astro physics. In short they program the phone to send and recieve music files to and from the google accounts.
This setup is why they would want your phone and tablet to program them to recieve just those files.

You need to sync first acct and save music to device .... Log into second and do the same thing...done. I have noticed if it doesnt sync u mite have to enter play music store and play a song that has been purchased and u should see sync music ... Then u want to save to device. Btw...I have done it on my tablet @ home with no prob except the play store thing but works after that...shouldn't need anything else.
Edit: didn't see other member mention that it works on tablet but not on phone... Weird. I'll have to try it now!!! Lol gonna gave it shot and report back...sorry. But def works on tablet tho...

You need to sync first acct and save music to device .... Log into second and do the same thing...done. I have noticed if it doesnt sync u mite have to enter play music store and play a song that has been purchased and u should see sync music ... Then u want to save to device. Btw...I have done it on my tablet @ home with no prob except the play store thing but works after that...shouldn't need anything else.
Edit: didn't see other member mention that it works on tablet but not on phone... Weird. I'll have to try it now!!! Lol gonna gave it shot and report back...sorry. But def works on tablet tho...

Thanks. When I add the first account, I see the SYNC MUSIC box but when I add the second account, there is no SYNC MUSIC check box. I actually have to remove the first account and then add the second one. If I do it in the reverse order, it happens the same. Only the first google account that's added gets the SYNC MUSIC check box. I'm thinking this is probably because google has to deal with music license stuff. Can anyone else confirm this?

Why don't you just upload all the music from account #1 to account #2?
Unless you have more than 20,000 songs then in that case....

How did you get it to work on a tablet? I tried to do it on my Nexus 7 and could only sync 1 account?

Tried it again on tablet jus to make sure..
OK , after I'm signed into original acct. And sync music from acct (1) I went to play store and hit settings/add acct entered other acct. Choose acct (2) from music apk. It did say i would lose music not saved to device. Hit OK. And then synced music from acct (2). I have noticed to get the music from acct(2). I do have to find a song i purchased on acct(2) should say purchased next to it. Play the song and hit sync. Its hit or miss with having to do that step. After experimenting I'm not sure if there is a clear cut system. But i was able to have multi acct music on one device. Sorry i cant be more helpful. Ill keep trying to find a clear cut system that works 100

So, you added another Google account from the Music Play app and NOT the Settings > Add Account > Google Account?

Yes there is a difference you only see your account info for device through the google play app. With the browser I can access all devices Nook Color, Nook Tablet, Nexus 4 and Asus Transformer and send a app, music or book to any device. Even though books really don't need be forwarded to a device.
Simply put this is how manage multiple devices under the same account for families. You can even have credit card info stored under the browser and google play app. So you could buy prepaid cards and have 50 dollars for each kid in your family to load to there account for spending on books, movies and music.
From Google play Store
Manage your devices
You can stream music in your library to any device or computer via a browser on which you're signed in. You can also download music in your library to any authorized device or computer. You can authorize up to a total of ten devices or computers at any one time. At this time, only two Google accounts per computer can be used to add music with the Google Play Music Manager.
Music from your library cannot be played simultaneously on more than one device. If you're currently playing music, you’ll need to stop playback in order to play your music on another device.
To see the Android devices with access to your library and the computers authorized for adding music, visit play.google.com/music and select 'Settings'. If you'd like to revoke a device's access to your library or disassociate your Google Account with the Music Manager on a computer, you can do so by clicking 'Deauthorize'.*Please note that once you've associated a total of ten computers and devices to your account, you may only add a new device by deactivating one first and you may not add more than four new devices per year.

If you use an app like BubbleUPNP, you can sync it with a Google Music account. That way, you can have one account on the official Google Music app, and the second on Bubble...
You could even try contacting the dev for Bubble and see if they can tweak it to allow multiple accounts...

This is it

I guess you can manage whole account from computer and download and upload songs from computer.
