Syncing music with iTunes - HTC One X

Hi there,
Im planning to buy a new mobile phone, and i dont know which one yet: iphone or one x.
One very important thing is that i can sync my music and playlists from itunes.
Is that possible with the one x?
Is anyone of you making use of it?
Does it work correct?

It's more of an android question. People are using doubletwist player from play store. Check it out from
Play.Google.com

If you download the Google Play Music manager it'll automatically upload all of the music from your computer. Its pretty legit.

DoubleTwist player can do this. Google it for product info.

I don't know, man.... I think the trade off is worth it.
The cool thing about Play Music is that you can pick and choose which music you want on the device and 'pin it' to your device. If you just choose to play the music, it'll cache all of it.
Either way, it's legit and I totally recommend it.

Double twist is pretty buggy. Why don't you wait until Sep 12 to make ur decision. I am not asking you to get the iPhone. Just wait to see what apples got under its sleeve before making ur decision.

Well, it works with HTC Sync!
It's pretty slow, but it works, it even creates the playlists

[Q] last.fm alternative?

i'm bummed that they are now charging for last.fm.. i use it pretty much every day. Pandora sucks...

have you tried slacker?
I'm playing with it now... its weird, different. Their top stations are awful but I created a new station that was playing my kind of music.
The thing I loved about lastfm was their vast selection of music. They even knew about this local garage band around me. I guess time will tell if slacker is good, but I'm open to more suggestions

My favorite music app over and above all else is now AudioGalaxy. Check it out. It streams all the music from your home computer without you having to sync.
i like GrooveShark. its not free, but at 3usd a month, its not going to bankrupt me. you can cancel it anytime too, and you get to use playlists from other people(check out reddit, grooveshark playlists). you can see these on your computer and your phone, and mark favorites from them.
i'd check out the free version on your PC first, everything it can do, so can the mobile client.

I used Titanium backup to remove the stock music player and now my lockscreen music controls on CM7 and my headset music buttons work for AudioGalaxy without firing up another player. That used to happen to me. Sometimes I'd have 2 players play at the same time. Since AG is really the only mp3 player I need I uninstalled the other ones.
Another alternative is Grooveshark.

While I personally love grooveshark and pay for it to use the android app, the fact that such payment is required makes this a less than likeable alternative for many who are seeking something free like lastfm used to be.

I've just uploaded all of my music to Google Music and play via the browser, or I mix it up with Pandora. For local playback I use VLC.
Foobar2000, I love all the options it has. It takes a bit to set up, but it's totally worth it in my opinion.

I hate iTunes but use it because it syncs with TuneSync (which syncs my galaxy nexus and my tablet installed in my car when i get home)
I used foobar for a while but missed recently added playlist, and it was very hard for me to get used too.
I don't think this thread should belong in a Nexus forum. But to answer the question, Foobar2000. Second is Clementine.

Yep! Same here. I have all of my songs on iTunes and all my music on iTunes is automatically updated to Google Music. Best of both worlds.
I use Windows Media Player at home to listen to my local library. Pandora when I want to listen to something new. And I use Google Music when I'm on the go.

[Q] Music Software

Hi all,
I have a Macbook Pro and installed kies.. now, to be honest, i think kies is and absolute piece of s***.. i mean, it gets stuck, it won't let me add music. the UI is quite harsh on the eyes and to be honest, it isn't for everyday use like itunes it. which in my opinion is the only thing i like from apple.
Now my question is.. what software are y'all using.. don't tell me spotify or anything like that..
cheers !!
Spotify + iTunes.

I used to use doubletwist because it replicates your itunes library and can sync via wifi.
But recently I just drag and drop like a usb

I jsut redownloaded double twist and tried it via cable. THe problem is that the Note 2 only connects via MTP mode and not mass storage. Double twist requires mass storage which is a pain lol.
I've always just used the airsync because I bought the pro version for $9.99 which comes with airsync and never noticed the cable thing lol.
Thing is i don't wanna spend 10 quid on a music software... Too expensive no matter what features it has

Downloading music

Can someone please tell me a legal, easy way how to download music directly on the device (not using a computer)?
It would help get me in my boss's good books. He just got a note2 recently. He is looking for something similar to iTunes, where he can purchase (if necessary) and download music directly on his note2.
P.S. I am surprised I don't see a way how to download music from the Google Play Music app

You cant buy music from Google play in Canada. Not really sure about an alternative to itunes
I've removed the app from my phone, but the included samsung (?) Music hub app. Did that not allow for the purchase of music?

Amazon music or if you go to the music section of the Play Store than it will work.
Like others have said, amazon mp3 will allow you to do it. It's the only legal way I'm aware of to purchase and download actual drm free music files to your phone.

My opinion
Probably almost all of you know this app. I just wanted to share it, so that the people who didn't know it can use it. It is free, and the app offers exactly what is explained up there. It is incredibly fast and music quality is good enough. Forget listening to music in Youtube! Higly recommended!

Yes, that's true, but it is worth it in my opinion...
Play Store link is down for me. "We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server."
Also, I would suggest getting rid of the push notifications; I've never had an app with push notifications for over 5 minutes :good:
