Does anybody have the actual .apk file for the Cyanogenmod 6.0 music player? i dont use Cyanogen regularly but i really liked the music app on it and was wondering if anybody had the app so i could install it. and does anybody know of a music app that will accept the apple headphone remote for pausing/volume?

I'm curious to know if this worked. I don't think it's that simple, I believe you actually need the framework

Has anyone tried using the apple or "made for iPhone" headphones with inline controls on the evo? Do the controls work?

As far as i know, a couple music players work with them but not too well. the stock Evo music player had play/pause functionality, but after I tried installing other music players, cubed for example, I lost the functionality in the stock music player. I'm not sure about this music player, because im letting my brother borrow my headphones, but i will definitely try them when i get a chance.
Also, does anybody know if their is a music player that will give the song changing controls in the notification bar? same concept as when in a call and the notification bar is pulled down, the "end call" button is right there. I see it as being a simple concept but im not a developer so no disrespect to any of the awesome devs out in the world. still waiting for full Desire HD rom
Yes, i guess i did forget to mention this isn't from cyanogen, but it was from an aosp "like" rom that had the g2 launcher on it. I pulled it form that, but since it looked like the cyanogenmod one, i just uploaded it

You were correct, this is a different one that i pulled from a aosp "like" rom
I recently switched from using VillianRom to MildWild 3.5.5.
I really like MildWild's ICS themed take on a stable Gingerbread core. The only problem Im having is some issues with the newer Android Music app that comes included in that rom.
I tend to do the majority of my music playing through my car stereo via bluetooth. If I use the standard HTC music app on the standard rom, or the stock android 2.3.6 music app on VillainRom then I get the song titles displayed in my car stereo. If I use ANY other music player, the display remains blank (although the music still plays OK).
I think this issue is related to the music app more than the rom, as I did once try the android 4 music app under Villainrom and noticed this didnt stream track titles across - hence I ended up going back to the default 2.3.6 player.
Im wondering now if I can somehow install the 2.3.6 gingerbread music app on the MildWild 3.5.5 rom. It might fix my issues.
Why don't you use a third-party musuc app like PowerAmp (best music app for Android imho).

3rd party apps don't stream track titles via bluetooth either.

I tried power amp but it doesn't stream track and artist titles via Bluetooth, so its very difficult to operate the music app using my car's steering controls and display screen. I've not found an audio app other than stock android or stock HTC players that work in this respect.
Have you tried music mod app.. This uses the older standard music frame work with nice touch screen gestures

I'm looking for a simple music player app that lets me do the following easily:
Search my music files.
Get back to my playlists and library without having to close the app and reopen it.
The stock music player is horrible. It has a search but there doesn't seem to be an easy way to go directly to the library once you get a few screens into the app so in order to get back to my library of songs and playlists I have to exit the app and reopen it. Maybe it does have a simple way to do this and I'm just blind and didn't see it but there has to be something better. I tried Android Music and the Play Music app that's also built in and those are easier to navigate back to the main screen but they don't have a search function.
Is there something out there that will do the simple things I want?
I love power amp. It is by far the best music app I've used. There is a two week trial version on the market and I believe it is $5 if you want to keep it.
Google play music app is also very good and free

cloudskipper is my pick as well, its completely FREE and has a nice, clean looking widget. I didn't like poweramp when I tried it, plus I don't want to pay for a music player app.
Cloudskipper has free EQ as well. Highly recommended

I'm a widget fanatic, so UberMusic is my choice. Gorgeous app. On a tablet, though, Hive Music Player all the way.
I also recommend power amp...way better than play music...just personal experience..

I agree 100%, IMHO PowerAmp is in a class of its own (just the lock screen controls alone make it worth using)
As others have said, Power Amp is nice. However, I switched to Player Pro a while back, and like it even better. As with Power Amp, it's really full featured. The interface is cleaner on Player Pro, and IMO it's just prettier. I also find the buttons easier to control while on an elliptical (they're a bit bigger).

been using PowerAmp for a while now. back then.. this was pretty much the only option if you wanted real good lockscreen controls. audio quality is great as well. i've stuck with this also, since the dev responds to emails quickly. i am curious as to how the alternatives today are. maybe i'll give PlayerPro a shot, though i don't quite understand why the DSP pack is a separate install, when this should already be built into the app like PowerAmp.
I recommend Poweramp as well.
On a side note: Has anyone else experienced incompatibilities with Poweramp and Bean's VZW Custom Stock Rom R2?
Every time I try to open the app it force closes on me.
+1 for PowerAmp. I've been using it since the early days and it's only gotten better over time. Plenty of controls, features, and options with a nice interface. Using it with an ICS skin and it looks great!

Yeah UberMusic is definitely my first choice but not because of the widgets. Out of all my searching, it is literally the only player I have found that has a true shuffle feature (no repeats).
I have a problem with Google Play Music app. When I'm listening music and go to home or any other app and I come back to the music app it doesn't show the album picture nor the minute of the playing song.
Also sometimes it also stops playing music and the lockscreen widget starts blinking
I have this issue too but it doesn't bother me as much. For the alb um cover simply hit the back button and you're good to go. For the lockscreen flashing, turn off the display and turn it back on.
Yes, these issues are easily solved unlocking the device and that's all. But I think is something related with 4.2.1, I don't remember these issues with 4.1.2..
Am I the only one that sees glitches EVERYWHERE in the Google Play Music app? For an example, clicking on the Search button, the search icon stays at he same place, when the second search icon reaches the left side of the search area, the right search icon then disappears. did I mention how laggy the animation is?
Clicking on the Thumbs up button has like 2 FPS animation.
Navigating the lists, for an example from albums to playlists is glitchy.
Browsing somewhere then clicking on a song to play it basically is so glitchy and slow that it hurts my eyes.
I didn't notice the issue with the search icon before, but now I've seen it lol. The app in general is extremely laggy even here on Gnex. I don't have to mention how it was in my previous Xperia Neo...
I'm experiencing the same since 4.2.1, music stops randomly (not only on google music, poweramp and musicxmatch also) and the lockscreen widgets blinks
There are so many small things in the Google Play music, that it makes me believe that Google doesn't even use it themselves. Like Mark Zuckerberg forced his employees to use their Android app to realize how bad it was.
How the heck can a music player (which isn't a rocket science like simulation or an emulator or a game like Shadowgun) to lag in the UI? Every single animation in the app is laggy. Literally. Please, i dare you to find somewhere in the app that isn't glitchy. If I worked at Google, I couldn't sleep at night because I have shipped this app in this state to the Play store.
Did I mention the UI and the background? What's up with that blueish thingy that is the wallpaper. Looks so amateurish.
Also did I mention the fade in animation when you scroll down or up in lists like Recent or albums? Why put this transition effect even if it severely downgrades the performance? Just try to scroll when you have a lot of music. A nightmare.
I have started to realize that Google is treating us Nexus owners like labrats. Sad truth.
Just look at the Android 4.2 update. Not a word from Google about all these problems, that probably affected all the Galaxy nexus owners. Not a single word to Google's most loyal customers.
The truth is that 4.2 came with several new things but is not optimized and is very laggy. I had to flash CM10.1 because the stock rom wich always worked smoothly started freezing suddenly. It came to the point when something so simple like writting with the keyboard froze the phone for a while.
The best version i've seen on our phones is the 4.1.2 and i doubt Google will make it better.

It happens to me too. Have you installed custom music player like cm9 music player or apollo music player?
It happened to me on stock 4.2.1 and now also on CM 10.1 (wich includes Apollo)

I get those same issues when I use CM9 Music player and I don't mean the apollo.
So that's why I use all the time CM9 music player..
If you delete every custom music player including apollo player and then wipe cache and dalvik cache. Then Google play music player will work without any issues..

I am not seeing any issues with the google Music app other than what the OP is describing. mine doesn't lag when scrolling long lists or loading album art. i was scrolling as fast as possible and the album art was keeping right up with me. also no slow/buggy animations anywhere. maybe your app needs the data cleared or something?
as for the blue background.....yes, this needs to be updated for sure. the music app needs to be re-done ASAP to the more holo style....google themselves provided guidelines for designing apps, why not use them on their own apps?

Could you please record your phone and showing off Google Music? I want to know how your animations are.
Do we know if this is a problem with CM specifically or simply the GMusic app being buggy? I have significant issues on my Gnex with Google Play Music, lots of freezing, problems with widgets not responding, and even flickering on the lock screen.
Using the latest WW firmware, when using Power Amp and Spotify, the notification has the ability to skip songs, and play/pause. There is also a spot of close out of the app and stop music.
The issue I am having is that I can't use any of those buttons. All I can do is press the notification, which brings up the full app. Clicking any of the notification buttons doesn't do anything at all.
It happens on both lock screen, and when phone is unlocked.
Anyone experiencing this and/or know of a solution?
Does anyone think a factory reset would help? Or is it something I should return it over?
I think, no because i have a fresh install with full wipe. Have the same problem with Google Music Player and to remove the Earphone Icon in statusbar when i stop play music, i must wish it out many times before it doenst come back.
I have the same issue even the widget at the home screen and lockscren don't work
So it seems to be a bug then. Hoping they get it fixed soon!
Same problem here. Been thinking it might be the Asus Launcher and may try Google Launcher later tonight to see if it fixes it.
On the latest WW firmware rooted and I have not problems with the notification or lock screen widgets with Poweramp or Pandora.
got he same with spotify, but not with tha asus app music
For people with this issue, did you buy the TW version and have the update to the WW version? Maybe that is causing the issue?
I'm getting the same problem with MX Player... CN model with WW firmware
Also I noticed that the pre-installed music application works well, why the rest not?
Huh, just noticed that, too! Asus Music app notifications work perfectly....
So it must be a bug with only 3rd party music apps?

Probably must be something missing in the third party softwares that the Asus app has... The question is: what it could be?
Got around to testing it now. Google Launcher will cause the same problem for apps like Music Folder. Soundcloud does however seem to be working fine for whatever reason.

I have the TW version that was auto-updated to WW out of the box (as most people's were). So maybe that's the issue
