Have you tried clearing the music cache, or to re-download it from the market?

Odd... It's already clear. I also alreadalready tried a redownload.

so is it just choppy, or what's the issue?

Its not even that, it just won't play. I attempt to play a song and the application force closes after a few seconds. Interestingly, it works well over wifi.

No, I have it set to stream over mobile data. I turned off "Steam over WiFi only".

It's kind of hard to stream music with Sprint's dial-up 3g speeds.

My speeds are fine. That's not an issue.

Do you flash a lot? I have hit my maximum number of registered devices a couple of times though I don't think it caused the app to fc. I guess you could try going into Google music on a computer and deleting some of the registered devices in settings. But to be honest I'm not sure that's your problem, worth a shot.

It should play on 1x. It probably just takes an incredibly long time for the video to load up. It takes long enough for me on 3G.
No italia won't play it start load and when it start playing an error pop out saying that the video can't be play and it is only on mobile because on WiFi plays perfect

Doesn't work for me on rc2 or rc3. It does work on my tablet and asks for root access. It never asks for root on cm7.

Now on rc3. "Unexpected error during integrity validation". Thats what it says when I try to stream. I have un and reinstalled several times.

Ok so here is the scoop:
Xfinity TV: control recordings or what you're watching on your TV.
Works w/o issues
Xfinity Mobile: watch comcast content.
this apps says it is ICS compatible now, but I had no video just sound.
new app called Xfinity Player:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...laynow&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
works perfectly, I installed (11mb) and ran a show w/o issues.
I hope that helps; looks like comcast may be moving things around.
I'll restore back to Thunderhawk (OMG the batter life) and test the same apps and report back - about if the xfinity mobile app acts the same.

Damn, sorry to hear that.
You'll probably have to pose the question to xfinity.
I have also had this problem, even when I upgraded from rc2 to rc3, switched su's and moved to sd card, clear data, etc.

Stock Music player app on ICS

One of the things I really like about this phone is the stock "Music player" app. I like the UI, the EQs and the Sense me feature. Is the ICS version similar?

Overall appearance is the same, for the most part. The features are all still there... EQ, Simulated environment, etc. But with ICS, you also get the visualizations. I don't recall seeing those on GB.
And in ICS this app under "Walkman" name, which one I'm like better when just "music player"

visually it's better but I prefer Google's music player overall since I can stream and dl my music from the cloud. No visual flair beats that.

Lol any music streaming service eats up data, but who's gonna be dumb enough to stream music on a data plan? I just dl my music onto my phone over wifi at home or any other wifi location.

Well, its not really about that. I have an "unlimited data plan" from AT&T but they throttle my speed and send me texts saying I'm being excessive and elite like in the top 3% of usage. So its really not all that UNLIMITED. Besides, its just not all that effective to stream music even while charging in the car because of the dead spots along the road. Really kills the spirit and mood when getting into the song. So, there's a bit more to it. Streaming librarys is just not all that it's advertised to be imo.

Lol that's why you download the albums or playlists at home using wifi. Besides, you have every single song from your music collection at your disposal by using Google music no matter where you are. Yeah, streaming is only as good as your data connection, assuming you don't just dl what you want beforehand at home on WIFI, but I'd rather carry my entire collection in my pocket than lugging it around on my laptop.

Does the music player detect the music stored on external sd. For me it does not.

It's weird. I put my music on the external card and the phone copied the music to the internal sd card. So I deleted the music from the external. I guess it likes to live on the internal card. A Sony thing?

Music playback error.

Hello all! Is anyone having any issues with Google play music? I keep getting a payback error, and it's been occurring for a while now. Here's a screen shot of what I mean.

Could it be a weird file format?
Even an MP3 has different encodings and things. MP3 is just a container I believe.
Have you tried using a different player?

Maybe for you. I have clear signal where I live, and solid 4G all the way for miles.
2MB/s d/l on a p2p file over 4G is AMAZING.
That's a home network speed.
So is the song you want to play streaming from a NAS box, or is it local?

NAS box. Is there a difference?

I get this error pretty often, and I think only on 3G. Usually if I just restart the song it is fine. There was one song that got messed so that I couldn't skip forward in the song because it had the time all screwed up I think.
Also, big pet peeve! When streaming a song, it stutters. So annoying. Once it plays through and is downloaded it is fine. Guessing this is due to the memory bandwidth limitations since its having to read and write at the same time while who knows what else is accessing the memory as well. Downside of no external sd.. but hoping a custom Rom/kernel with memory tweaks will help!

Torrents.

Having a weird issue. Torrents are downloading extremely slow when not on wifi. Tried different apps, torrents, internal/external storage, HSPA/LTE.... I think it was working at the beginning but now, When i download on LTE or HSPA I get like 10-30 kBps and I have no idea why... Didn't have this issue with my note 2... Anyone else having this issue....
Not having this issue using bittorent on late downloaded the lone ranger 720p over 1gb in less than 10 min.

What torrent app do you use? Or do you tether it to your PC and use bittorrent on your pc side?
I have the same frustrating issue. I can't even load you tube videos or Google Music right half the time. It loads a percentage and gets stuck unless on wifi. I toggled to regular 4G and baam! Loads like it should

i know there is a legal side to torrents...but this discussion is not allowed here in relation to pirating/etc
