I use walkman too.
But it would be great if it can select specific folder like power amp.

I'm willing to bet someone's gunna be mad at this being in this thread, but whatever....
I LOVE playerpro . By far my favorite.

THIS is mainly why I use playerpro. Artist pic and album pic are completely customizable. Via folder, web search blah blah. BEAUTIFUL. Oh also download noozxiod EIZO rewire pro ... and don't use or enable the playerpro dsp manager. Have fun

Noozy.

Can anyone link me to walkman player? Sounds interesting and I can't find it in the Play Store =S
power amp pro
Noozy .. a little unreliable but the sound is worth it.
I love the sound of noozy, but its so damn finicky n unreliable that it is almost unusable. Almost. Like I m 99.5% decided to switch back to poweramp. But then I listen to it, n sighhhhh......cant do it. Y noozy Y?
ZPlayer - it's just sexy. The text only styling of Zune on the homescreen with a faded background artist. Built-in equalizer, bass booster, and virtualizer. Do you like the bass up when listening to BassNectar or Cookie Monsta but don't want as much bass when listening to your acoustic album? ZPlayer has you covered! If toggled, it can select and equalizer type based on the genre of song you pick. It will import your playlists, has an album art downloader, bio for your artists, and gives a list of similar artists. Several widgets are also available. You like podcasts? ZPlayer has that covered too. It plays videos. It has Last.FM settings. It even has lockscreen controls. Give it a try.
noozy, met this week to update my radio, since I'm using and enjoying it more and more.
I didn't see "Noozy" on the Play Store. Link anyone?
I use google music with the beats/dsp and love the sound :]

It got removed for copying Zplayer, you may be able to find the apk with a google search.
Mixzing Media Player Upgraded.
Def the best music player I've used.
The features that make me love it are..
Has automatic album cover downloads
Lyrics
Lockscreen player (which works with stock CM10 and with the rom I'm currently using; check sig)
beautiful simple widget selections:
1x1 no album art
2x2 with album art
3x3 with album art
4x1 no album art
4x2 with album art
4x4 with album art
I've used others but this is the one I have used since my Nexus One.
There are other apps that support Mixzing (as well as other music players) that you can shake to change songs, etc

Hi, I really want to download a new music player, because to be honest, I'm getting seriously bored of all the HTC Stock stuff.
Chrome has replaced my browser (Thankgod for Chrome!)
But I cannot find a sufficiant music player, I had heard of Double Twist, but when I downloaded and used it, it pretty much halved the loudness of my music, which defeats the point of 1 - Beats audio technology, and 2 - Using my Beats headphones.
Why is it that using a different music player made my music so quiet?
Is there an alternative?
Can you make double twist louder?
I CHOSE DOUBLETWIST AS THEY OFFER ALBUM ART AND LYRICS !!
Thanks !

You can also use poweramp, n7 or neutron music player... they are good and especially neutron player has lots of options while n7 player ha very good ui
u can download albums in both
I agree that with the free version of DoubleTwist, the music isn't very loud and pretty flat ( I have beats earphones as well).
But once I upgraded it to the next level (the one that provides just the equalizer) and enabled the equalizer, music was much better.
Combine that with Xtreme sound enhancer mod, and it's a killer music player.
I also like PowerAmp, but I've always preferred DoubleTwist's sound quality over it.
I decided to play with the RealPlayer beta, and have actually found it pretty nice.
I also use google music to stream my music. I dont like that app much but it saves memory

But can anyone explain to me how to get the most out of my headphones/music, like... how a equalizer works? haha !
Thanks!
Seriously, it sounds awesome with Perseus audio tweaks and a little bit of tweaking within the player itself. I'm not a big fan of the UI, but it honestly just works.
The only reason I'm switching over is because PlayerPro's EQ and DSP pack were giving me issues. The "bass" knob was going...backwards.
PowerAmp is hideous IMO, but sounds good. Neutron isn't really user friendly, but it sounds epic.
Walkman is nice, but Ac!d audio along with it gave me FC's in Sound Enhancement. (Anyone know how to fix this?)
Anyway,
Perseus headphone amplification up to 63, a u-shaped EQ with +2 and -2 being the limits, negative gain on 1, stereo expansion on 6.
Mild bass/clarity adjustments in the music player, +1 on 3D, +1 on room size.
What can I say, I'm happy. My ATH-M50's suddenly have a new life.
I may flash Ac!d universal again and see how it sounds. I do feel like I can get a bit more sub-bass out of these cans.
Thoughts?
I love the stock music player. The only reason why I'm using poweramp (I like its asthetics fyi but let's ignore that for this discussion) is because of the ability to choose the folders that I want. With the stock music player, it pulls music from my dropbox and also voice recordings. With poweramp, I can prevent that which is better for me. I would use the stock music player otherwise. It also helps when I won a license key from poweramp a while back.

PowerAmp ftw. Been using it for a while. Well worth the price unless you won a copy like above lol.

Since you guys seem to love it, and more to the point, use the stock player, I have a simple question.
When you open the player, say from the widget, how do you get back to a menu where you can open/switch-to a new playlist.
So far I only found that possibility when I open the app using the standard icon.
That annoyance has driven me to use apollo pro (a beefed up version of the player on CM9+ firmwares).
I have one major problem with the stock player (though it's really the os default behavior). I have a lot of music on my 64gb sd card (50gb?) and when I open the stock player it freezes while it rescans it all (about a min) - same on closing the player - very annoying. It does it every time so I use Player Pro which opens instantly for music and just use the stock player for podcasts. The other plus for me is Player Pro shows the album art on the lockscreen. I have no issues with the audio quality of either, though I also like and use the controls in Perseus stweaks.

I have 38gb of 320kbps MP3's, no freezing issues here in any player at all!
Yeah combo of stock music and google play has replaced poweramp. Like the way google play creates playlist and stock player music squares.
Poweramp is in need of a major update. Been using it for years and its getting dated.

If PowerAmp fixed its playlist issues, I'd probably use it again lol.

This. The stock music player will happily play every media file on the damn phone, not just my music.
I haven't used a SINGLE stock music player in Android ever due to this issue.
I'm a playlist user. I use iSyncr for mac to get all my music on there, it all shows up fine.
I can agree about folders though. I have used them from time to time, PowerAmp did that job pretty well.
Cant u choose wich folder to play on stock player too? I like the stock player as well.
Sent from my SGH-I317 using XDA Premium HD app
I still haven't found a third party music app better than PlayerPro. Stock music player is actually quite good (probably the best stock player I've used) but I can't customize it in the same way I can with PlayerPro. And when you combine PlayerPro with the "Equalizer" app (paid version), it's a wrap!
No one likes winamp? I've been using it on pc since I was a kid and the app seems good. Shoutcast radio is also a plus.

Ahh! That's why it was choking and scanning forever - I have no playlists and the music player interface always opened where I left it - on the Songs page/tab. If I leave the interface showing the Playlist tab, it opens without a lag! Now to add a playlist...
Ugh. Using the app to add the playlist is problematic, no impossible. I can choose individual songs to add to the playlist, but as soon as I choose "Select All" it freezes (and never completes the task). Then I tried to make the playlist with various apps but I couldn't get any to make a playlist of all songs given my directory structure (All Music > Genre > Artist > CD). Hmm... What should I call it - suboptimal? ...I finally did make a playlist with my PC version of Winamp (mounting the phone with SGS3 Easy UMS), but I'll probably keep using the Player Pro.
Thank you for that comment though as it explained my problem and gave a workaround (make a playlist with an external app), but I think I have to stick with the opinion that the stock player is poorly made... Though perhaps it would be more correct to say that the Android media scanning default behavior is just crazy bad and needs to be changed - then all the stock music apps would probably work fine. The Gallery app by the way suffers from similar problems for the same reason...
How do you get it to pull from dropbox?

I use Winamp Pro. Has an equalizer and plays FLAC. I also bought the Album Washer and Lyrics addons. Can't go wrong with that.

.nomedia files cause the system to ignore ringtones, and then you can't use them as ringtones.

If you use the widget, open the app with the lower right icon. Using the back button, you can move between main screen, playlist screen and song screen.
Hey guys , does any of you know a good music player ? I got the one from the slimbeam rom but i cant make a proper playlist and it is so annoying. I want something like the TW music player , the original one , it was so easy to make a playlist.. the thing is i have more geners of music and i need three diferent playlists so ye , everything i`ve tried sucked at this lol . So , any idea ? Much love
uhmm:
Apollo music player
Shuttle music player
*OPTIONAL*
Shuttle+ Music player
that is the only 2 good looking music player (my thoughts )
I am using rocket music player.
Its free (exept the unlocker).
The unlocker is only if you need 10band hq equalizer. maybe some extra stuff too.

So far PowerAmp has been the best. Tried allmost every possible players. As my tags in collections r awful, PowerAmp displays and organizes songs in folder view, which is a must if your id tags r messed up:silly:
What music app are you guys gals using to listen to your downloaded songs?
I'm trying most of the ones on XDA Android apps forums, Pulsar, wave, minmia.
VLC isn't working right, lagging hugely and redrawing incorrectly.
No winamp for Android?

Try Black player. I was big on Shuttle as it's a quality app with material design but Black player just does it all well and has its own style which I like.

Thank you for your suggestion, works very well, and it has the "delete" song from library option, double tap for favorite is nice.
There actually used to be a WinAmp for Android. It was nothing like the Windows app. But anyways, I've used every music player out there and there is only 1 that does everything I want it to. PowerAmp. It's only a couple of dollars for the full version but to me, it's totality worth it.

I am using the Sony one (Music was walkman), IMO one of the better, has a nice interface
I have been using Poweramp full version for years. The sound quality is superior when compared to Google Play Music. I have to use Play Music for my subscription but I use Poweramp for my side-loaded and purchased music.
Loaded Poweramp again, the delete function is too embedded.. is there a setting to make it more tap and hold to delete?
And what are the odds this would happen?!
OK has anyone else used pi music player? How can I set Poweramp to play songs as detailed and clear?

I'm looking for something that shuffles by albums and preferably has a 5x1 widget for 7.1.1.
I have been out of the loop for music players for quite some time and I have been using Rocket Player for the last 4 years. I am looking to upgrade to something that might be a bit better.
Apps I've checked out:

I've been a huge fan of GoneMAD music player. It plays flac, shuffles (not sure if by album), and has a 4x1 widget. It is paid but there's a trial version you can try.

Yeah I've been liking Shuttle++ quite a bit although I would like if they changed the pixelated looking status bar icon and made the play controls for the notification nicer like Sony music. The widget options are the most extensive I've found though. Artist artwork came through much easier than Sony Music too.

Best Player overall is Black Player (EX)
Most customizable, and feature rich music player.
In my opinion, its well made and looks damn awesome.

The other thing Black Player EX does that I like is editing is really user friendly. some of my MP3s don't have the artists name show up and I can make that happen with Black Player EX. Player Pro allows that as well but not as user friendly.
You might ask the guys over in the billion post Android DAC thread at Head-Fi.
If anyone knows a good player, I'm sure it's them.

edit: wow, 8639 posts as of today. Not quite a billion but it'll get there someday.
After reading this yesterday, I did a little comparison last night. Used Freebird for guitar run, Stevie Nicks for voice, and full song of Jessica by the Brothers. Compared paid versions of Poweramp, Black player EX, and Player pro with DSP pack. They are so similar it's hard to pick except Poweramp has the least distortion at high pre-amp settings on high frequency sounds. So below is my ranking (just my personal opinion):
1. Poweramp
2. Blackplayer EX
3. Player Pro with DSP pack
