Hello
I have one HTC Desire but I would like to install a particular son like a music in place of the general song provide on the HTC Desire. The problem is not possible (for me) to replace the alerte song not installed on the HTC desire.
Thank you very much for your help

Try putting a music file in /sdcard/media/audio/notifications or /sdcard/ringtones. Worked for me.
Hi ..
Just changed from HTC Incredible S to One X. 1 of the first thing that I notice was my mp3 covers (album art).
Using my Incredible S, the phone will display each individual mp3's cover correctly.
After using One X, I realize the cover no longer display according to each mp3's individual cover but instead using the general cover.
I changed some information on the mp3 and found that One X identifies the mp3 covers through the "album" field's information in the mp3 file.
A little troublesome for me to update the album field for each mp3 just so that One X can display the correct covers.
Anyone had this trouble and found a way to resolve this? All I want is for the phone to display the correct cover tagged to each mp3.
Many thanks ..
Have you tried updating the art work on the one X itself (menu, update artwork), you can always revert back to the original if you want. I did this as some of my tags were low res and looked terrible but my tags all displayed properly to start with. If it makes a difference I always tag artwork to my tracks individually on pc using media monkey before adding them to my phone.

Hello!
Though I have HTC phones for 2 years, I never used them for music play.
I bought the Stereoclip yeaterday and I am ''obliged'' to use the HOX to stream music as my cowon J3 BT volume is too low and crappy.
Now to focus on the question here, is there any way to play songs per folder?
I always divide my songs by genre in folders like ''Trance'' ''Rock'' ''80s''...
Ok the HTC music player can play by genre but unfortunetly my mp3s are nothing but well ID3taged + I don't want to put 500 songs in a genre.
So please how can I play by folder?
Any modified htc music app for that purpose?

I would create your own playlists with the Names of the genres you are using.
You can also add sources from DropBox etc this could be a good idea if you want to keep the space on your device free for apps etc.
To do this, goto your music play, click the "Settings" top right corner and click "Add Music source"
Hope this helps my friend.

Forget the dropbox thingy with our very limited 3G network in Lebanon (20 to 100mb per month), or else I would have used Tuneinradio in my car all the time
I think I will install a 3rd party app though I would have preffered to do it with the HTC music app

Okay, heres three options and I can't think of any other way for you to do it, I hope this is helpful.
1 - Obviously you could use another music player, such as WinAmp.
2 - Sort your music into the folders you want, get a file explorer (I Use ESFileExplorer) go on that, navigate to the folder, long press and then click "Music" that folder will then be loaded by itself into the music, Long winded I know but you can still use the stock app.
3 - Create playlists and just name the playlists by the folder.
2 is probably your best bet !
Thanks dude!
I will try playlist to begin with, if it's a pain in the as* I will install a good 3rd party app.
Btw which one is the best (music quality) and has lockscreen controls?

No worries mate
Tbh never used a third party music player, as in my opinion they are never as loud or clear as the stock. Perhaps that could be sorted if you know what to do with an equaliser, but I don't haha.
Couple of Suggestions that I know are good music players:
DoubleTwist - GirlFriend uses this, its free, very smart and sleek looking, and has many functions. Including the lock screen control you asked for. I'd take a look at this.
Player Pro - Looks very capable but never had an experience with it.
Also
WinAmp - Has been around for long time, before android even existed as it was a PC music player, hense the "Win" for "Windows"
I had a good look at PlayerPro, this could be a brilliant option for you, its got everything you've previously mentioned, playing by folder, lock screen controls. etc etc
Hi mate,
here's what I did on my HTC Desire X. You create a folder with a specific name where you put all your music and then in the Music app on HTC Android, you Search for that folder. It then shows up under Albums and you are able to play only the tracks contained in that Album/folder. For the folder names, they have to be somewhat unique, if you have a lot of music on your phone because otherwise it's gonna getm mixed up.
Hope it helps!
Since Sense 4+ we can use folders play in the HTC Music app
I just found an easy solution to the problem.
1. Organize all your songs on your phone under folders as you like
2. Connect your phone to a PC
3. Open Windows Media Player
4. Select all songs from one folder (on the phone) and add to Windows Media Player Playlist
5. Rename Playlist according to your preference
6. Save the playlist
7. Copy the playlist from your music folder on your PC and paste it on your phone in the Music folder
8. The playlist will now be available on your stock music player
Hi,
I have recently upgraded to a custom ROM ARHD on my HTC One M8. However, when I play some of my songs through the stock music player app the songs timings are out of sync.
For instance I could be at 1:25mins in a song but it will display it as 59:55hrs (forwarding and rewinding doesnt also work )
The songs play fine through Play Music
I'm living in the middle east right now so my music download options are limited.... I've recently discovered that 7Digital will actually accept my payments, which is great.... But it stores the files deep in my SD card folder system & the HTC music app doesn't pick them up... Any recommendations on how to direct the music app to the MP3s without having to move the files and create new folders every time I download new music...
That is probably your only bet with the stock HTC music app.

Thanks, bit of a sad oversight that they provide one app to purchase music and put it on your phone, and one app to play music off your phone, but the two won't work together...
Try using another music player...?
