I really like the default samsung player. Its got the flawless notification/lockscreen integration and it recognizes all my music correctly. There's maybe two or three features that I look for in a player that this one has all I need. My only problem is that it chugs when I scroll through my music quickly (25gb of songs on a class 4 card will do that though, sadly). I've tried a whole bunch with fancy interfaces, but they always give me a reason to go back. For example, I tried xenoamp after the reccomendation above and I was really excited for it, seemed like it had a cool interface. But no shuffle all? And after I got past that, the rest of it felt like an alpha with a lot of features (like editting tags so I could fix all of the songs that it randomly didn't recognize) simply not working.

I really like the stock music player, but it's constantly losing my position in tracks when I pause... I listen to a lot of audiobooks, and if I pause mid-track, if I come back an hour or two later it's lost the position, starting the track over. If I wait more than an hour or two, it often forgets what book I'm even on, and will just show my library.
This is with absolute minimal use between, checking gmail once or twice and a text or two.
I use either Cloudskipper or Doubletwist, take your pick
I have used Mixzing for the past two years.

Hello!
I wonder if anyone has been able to find a music player really worth it, I said why I tried several like the power amp, ubermusic, and the new app ics, but all have the same problem.
Try playing with the volume button, go up and down the volume quickly and see as there is a pause in the song or degradation (noticeable only with headphones), and this does not happen with the player as standard. Now tell me then stick with the standard player! But it always bugs me when I'm presented some time playing the same artist when I press the back button instead of sending me to the library just sends me to the main desktop, this happened to me many versions with different roms bone is samsung a direct bug ..
samsung player also has a millisecond pause after each song which is annoying me!
Someone tell me if they feel the same? that all players have this defect by changing the volume?
Greetings!
Power amp beta 2 ?
Its really good
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I just tested and this is no longer the problem by increase or decrease the volume ... but now every time I open the app has a volume change for a second and it's annoying me ...
any idea?
I have been using doubletwist and it is pretty good
at the end I did not find any that do not have this error when the volume up and down maybe for some it is annoying as it is almost imperceptible but for me it's really annoying ...
try, PowerAMP, ubermusic, doubleTwist, pro player, and no bug fixes that the only thing is you do not have the samsung home player ...
that samsung does not fix the bug in your player at home, when you're playing a long time to one artist and you want to switch to the press only sends you back to the main menu, this is a general problem right?
Neutron player.
Weird UI, but excellent sound quality.

and i could not agree more then you. i had this player for the longest and its too good. it reads all my album art i customized and works atleast not like other crappy players and no lag and great ui looking. this is a keeper until someone comes out with something that'll have all this and plus more. you can modify alot of things tho in poweramp.. anyone that is not happy with it go blah on something else which is worthless no offence to anyone.
Try ttpod, really nice sound quality
Another thing that pisses me off about the stock music player is the fact that there's no music widget. Come on Samsung what were you thinking. That's a core Android feature!
What about winamp? Is no good?
PowerAMP
PowerAmp is the best.
I bought it...
I am testing the PowerAMP 2.0 and is really good!

There is an option in PowerAmp
Is there something better than winamp out there? It keeps locking up on me and uninstalling/reinstalling doesn't seem to help. I like the swipe to skip songs feature, so if there's something that has that feature, that would be great.
Any suggestions?
I'm using Apollo. Nothing fancy but it gets the job done plus it has equalizer settings.

Can I get it from the market? The link to download it from the site is blocked here at work.
I used MysteryEmotionz Blacked out Miui Music. Works really well. It's in the old Epic apps area. Zip won't work in recovery, just push apk to system/app.
Poweramp... best there is!
I love player pro

I used apollo for a bit, but the sound quality was not great. i got a lot of distortion. the eq does not work at this moment to my knowledge. mine kept reverting to fx or w.e. its called.
to answer the OP question. Poweramp is the best, hands down. It is a few bucks, but you get what you pay for. The eqing and sound customization is phenomenal. The overall appearance (including the lockscreen) is great as well. Give it a test drive and youll see. I think its a 14 day trial.
edit: i dont use it, but im pretty sure you can swipe to go to the next song in the app and lockscreen

Poweramp. I believe you can still try it free for 30 days.
poweramp is great, only complaint (big one for me) is that if you use bluetooth for your car stereo, it doesnt pull the song title like the stock music player does

I believe so, atleast for me. like i said, you can give the full trial a go for 14 days
i got poweramp, player pro, and mixzing
i say poweramp, equalizer is better.
but mixzing was cool cuz it would set up a playlist for you and now it doesnt work well anymore.
its unanimous, poweramp. play pro is good too but I didn't like the eq very much
I was having massive winamp problems too and recently found Doubletwist. Its been working really well for the last week or so. It does shoutcast streaming as well, only complaint is that seems to time out and not reconnect to the stream if it drops for any reason.
JetAudio or Poweramp.
I used poweramp for a while but I'm really starting to enjoy JetAudio, it's brand new as well so it can only get better.
poweramp!!!
I just tested jetaudio. it doesnt display song title info from blue tooth on the car radio either

I was curious to see everyones music app of choice is? I've tried em all except winamp and slacker radio, but I think I'm gonna go with PlayerPro for a while....I love having the lockscreen widget back!!! (Missed that from using it on MIUI on my OG Evo) Anyways curious to see what everyones app of choice is!
None of the above - jetAudio Basic
I use Amazon MP3 which is not listed above.
Player pro. The gap less playback alone makes it worth using. Also the developer is friendly. We spent about a month fixing the blue tooth track display after I emailed him. I was very impressed at his level of support.

doubletwist, which isn't listed.
I like the stock on the SIII simply because it has the Cover to Pause feature.
That feature has been awesome to me especially when driving and I have to pause a song, I never have to look at my phone.
I do still like Google Play Music App, gives me access to a bunch of songs that are streaming off my cloud.
If only there was an app that had Cover to pause feature and the ability to stream music off of our Google Music accounts... :cyclops:

I agree 100%, best music player out there imo
Google Music for me
I like doubleTwist since I'm able to sync it with my desktop version and transfer and manage songs just like iTunes.
Topic. I'm using the default one for the first time since I've been using Android. On my evo epic 4g and 4g touch I always used player pro but since owning the s3 I don't feel a need to use a after market one unless someone ports over the xperia music player with working widgets.

+1 for poweramp paid. I don't buy many applications but Poweramp was the one of the first i paid for. And I'm soo glad i did.:laugh:
I used the built in player for a few days, but I saw no means to retrieve the correct album art, and lol that annoys me when my music shows the wrong art, so I started using power amp paid version :good:
Now you guys wouldn't happen to be the developers of this app hmmmmm? lol

This kinda moves the original question into another area, but how do you keep the ring tones saved on your phone from being played via the music player? I'm at the point now that I do not save music on my phone. I just stream it from my cloud. Thanks.

Most music players allow you to select which folders to add to your music library. Although others scan the entire device for sound files.
I like the option of storing files local. Works great for subways and airplanes.

I've been playing around with Music Player (remix) lately. Its still fairly new on the Android platform and the dev has some bugs to iron out, but the menu system is incredible. Almost everything is accessible from swipes left, right, up. $5 is a bit steep, try out the demo you might just fall in love with it.

have you found a way to fetch the correct album art with the tw music app?
Hi all.
What app does everyone use for music? I have been using Google music. But I made a discovery today that almost gave me a brain aneurysm. It reconverts ALL my music to 256kbs mp3s even mp3s.... Even worse CBR.... I won't rant. But I want to stop using it. So what is everyone else using? I liked apollo but the whole album art download for me thing was annoying...
I use stock or nex player. Stock is quite nice in my opinion

I've been using a little folder-based player called Hikiplayer for about a year now. I don't like players trying to reorganize my music, download album art, force me to use playlists, or any crap like that so it's perfect for me.
