[Q] Anyone uses G2 as an MP3 player in their car?

if you do, what app do you use? the stock "music" app IMO is a bit trashy so i was wondering if anyone knows of a better one. plus, is there a way to not have the screen autolock (quite annoying)? thx!

I used to with my mt3g but can't find an adapter for my g2. I stuck with the stock music app.

I used to use the stock music app, but now I'm loving Winamp. I recommend giving it a shot.
Doubletwist is a close second.

Meridian and no lock. Both found in the market for free.

MortPlayer Music. The best car features are the swipe gestures for playback control and the ability to lock the screen orientation.

I used Cubed. Think it looks the slickest. (If you do a search for Cubed, it's the one listed as the 3 cubed symbol).

Winamp

MixZing and I have a widget that I sit next to my MixZing widget that keeps the screen on at all times, perfect combo since I always have the phone charging in the car.

Doubletwist

Stock app, and I use Bluetooth audio streaming to SYNC and control playback via AVRCP. So, little to no interaction with the phone's playback software.

I'm liking the PowerAMP music player
it's here on XDA

I'm hearing good things about PowerAMP. I'll have to check it out.
Hey scrizz! I see you're in Tampa...I'm right across the bay from you!

Im using Winamp it works alot better than the stock music player. Another nice feature is when you lock your screen and you unlock it you can have it set up to change the track or pause the song without having to slide to unlock.

I use winamp, and I love it haven't tried anything else yet but its wayyyyy better than stock imo.

Adapter? You mean a regular 3.5mm headphone jack? You don't need a stupid adapter with this phone.
I use music mod, a better version of the stock music. Works great for me.

Want to make your SGS2 sound amazing?

DSP manager works!
Root maybe needed.. When installed just turn on bass enhancement and set it to extreme, then max the EQ but drop the 2nd to rightmost treble down to 0... Omg... Its loud.. Clear.. And actually has some BASS !!
Does not work with native music player as that has its own eq.. But for any other streamed music video or game its incredible.

Thanks for the heads up!! Will try it when it arrives and see if the sound becomes better ;D

Could you please clarify on the above or upload an image for illustration purposes?
Thanks
EDIT
I understand what you mean; sorry, I am new to Android
Just to confirm, the DSP Manager works even on the on non-rooted handsets.

just download and install bro. may need a file manager from the Android Market to find the .apk file.. Should be in the downloads folder on your sd card.
Sorry

The SGS2 has a built in installer and you just select the apk and it installs it. I am loving this phone.
Has anyone complared PlayerPro vs above suggestion?

Worked for me, made a nice change, will test it fully in the car tomorrow.

Works great, sounds meaty now!

crashes on mine everytime while navigating or listening to an audio book and a call comes in.. then in continually crashes till reboot.
think it has something to do with restarting the book or navigation..
uninstalled.

Sound better to me. Takes some of the tin out. Thanks.

[CM9] FM Radio Developement How-to, Q&A

Hi,
I've opened this thread so we can talk about the FM Radio developement for CM9.
I'm not developer, however I would like help this galaxy W comunity.
Any of you know some similar threads that can be useful for us?
I did a little search on XDA but can´t found any useful information :S

You can try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631046
I don't know if this method will work for galaxy w. But be careful, some people get hardware problems etc. after using this app.
In play store search for spirit fm.

Spirit FM works for me
Hi again,
After searching more I found a way to put FM Radio working on our device
You can use "Spirit FM" apk.
Please see this thread .
After downloading the apk you need do the following steps:
1)Install the SpiritFM apk
2)goto Settings->Regional Band->Your country's band
3)goto Settings->Audio->Method-> "qdsp5v2 Altern". Custom ROMs use Audio->Method = "qdsp5v2 Altern". If must reboot for normal audio, enable Debug->Mute kill mediaserve
4)Enter your Station number and enjoy the music.
This works for me in Portugal
Big thanks for "mikereidis" that develop this apk.

Which regional band did you use? I cant see malaysia nor philippines in regional band options.
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium

From what I know, mikereidis developed the app by doing reverse engineering from scratch for the radio chip.
I bought the app when my galaxy s had the exact same problem where cm7 still didn't have fm radio support yet. And I am very satisfied. It worth the money IMHO
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda app-developers app

Hi,
I saw some bugs during the tests. If I'm using Spirit FM and receive a call, the apk stops and I start listen the incommig call. This is the expected result.
The problem happen when I stop the call. The Galaxy W I8150 crashed and did a reboot.

DSP Manager for TouchWiz

I've looked around for a DSP Manager for TouchWiz roms but i have not found anything. Does such a thing exist or must I change to an AOSP or CM room?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I tried that for a while too. There is a version of awesome beat that works but only with other music player; not the stock Samsung one. And even then, it's buggy. Sometime applying setting for Bluetooth audio to headphone, etc. I eventually have up and just use the default dsp built in; which again, can only be accessed by other music player
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

You're not looking hard enough.. I'm using it right now, the only problem is that it doesn't work with any music player in touchwiz except for poweramp and it works great!! but you have to disable direct volume control in audio settings and also disable the eq in poweramp, and everything that is enabled there for best results

Damn! Alright then, thanks for the suggestion

Sure no problem, it does work with everything else though like browser, Pandora, YouTube, pretty much anything that doesn't read music from your SD
