Im using XXDME1 Rom w/ XXDLK7 Modem
When I goto bed at night, I like to check "Active Applications" so my N2 deep sleeps properly, but after the last few updates of Play Music (I like to keep my apps uptodate) whenever I go into Active Applications play music seems to be running for some reason. I always use either Sammy Music Hub or Music Player anyway because IMO, Play Music interface is hideous and its slow.
So will disabling it in Settings > Applications, affect the N2 at all like music or media side.
Thanks
it should be safe to remove.
it wasn't even installed on mine.

Thanks, music player seems to be running fine without google music. In fact, theres a few apps that, over the last 6 weeks since having the N2, I could really get rid of.. 2 being ChatOn and learning Hub.. and that's just a start.
Do you have Indonesia DME1 installed, strange mine came with Play Music and I just updated it.
Sorted.. Thanks

Music beta, the Google Android app that supports Google Music Beta, autostarts whenever it detects a BT audio connection that isn't being used. So, for instance, if I shut off Poweramp or another streaming player before I disconnect BT, it will instantly pop up and start playing, sometimes even before the other app has shut down.
There is no settings menu to prevent it from "reacting" to headset commands in the app, and I'd like to be able to control whether it autostarts or not from another application. I downloaded Autostarts, but it doesn't even recognize the event as a trigger for the application.
Any other suggestions? I'd uninstall the damn program, but it's the only app out there now that will play music stored in Google Music beta.
interesting. Have never had it auto-play on bt connect. Are you using the widget as-well?

Nope. I only run the app when I want to play music on Google Music Beta. Otherwise I run Poweramp. What's annoying is that I'll have Pocketcasts up and running and even playing, and suddenly Music will decide it wants to play, too. I had this problem with Winamp and I had it with the stock Music app.
I froze the stock Music app in Titanium, and I could always remove this one, but then there aren't any other apps that play music stored in Google Music.
haven't tried it (trashed google music) but something called 'phantom' (appbrain) claims to play google music in the pro version. I THOUGHT I saw another one that did it but can't find it now. Look around; keep eye out.
I was looking forward to using the ICS stock music player, but for some reason the latest google music player does not work well with my bluetooth stereo. I cannot pause music via the controls, i can only play. It also does not support avrcp 1.3/1.4, which is strange since google music from the market DID on my droid x.
I have tried getting poweramp, but i have had my phone restart 3 times since installing it and have now uninstalled it.
I tried downloading winamp, but with the bluetooth controls enabled in the app, the stock music player overrides it and and it seems like winamp needs to be updated for ICS.
Playerpro's settings do not work in ICS and I cannot even get to the menu to enable music controls.
Does anyone have a solution for this? It is strange, as I thought google would have sorted this out by now.
I use playerpro, works fine for me, has did since I got the phone.

I love PowerAmp, still the best music player in my opinion.
I get my Nexus tomorrow. Is there anyone else having problems with it? I've really been counting on Poweramp working.
No problems here. PowerAMP is amazing.
I have Mortplayer on my GN.
so it looks like it might not be poweramp. it could by a bug. If you look here at post 3, http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12773-random-shutoffs/ you will see a guy links to 3 threads that talk about restarts happening when some type of sound is happening..
so it might be a bug in ICS
Mortplayer works great with ogg files over Bluetooth in stereo. I've been using Mortplayer all the way back to the Windoes Mobile days. It's lite and funcctional.
PowerAmp!!
Custom rom and been through several kernels, Power Amp has been great since I first loaded it on the stock phone.

Hi folks,
I'm interested at using a different music player since the stock music player doesn't give me much in terms of features.
I've had PowerAMP (Paid) problem with is that every time I get an SMS message the music cuts out to play the sounds in my headphone and then the music blares out on the out speaker and then once the inbound sms sound is done it's plays back into the headphones.
I've had DoubleTwist similar type of problem but not as bad and unless you paid attention you wouldn't notice. BUT it's a huge memory HOG while running and playing music is eats about 55mb in the memory and I can't send the APP to SD.
What other alternatives do I have? I was considering PlayerPro but I really am trying not to have to pay for an APP.
I was looking at Winamp which I love but I would need their PRO version which again is a bummer cause I really am trying not to buy it.
Any suggestion?
Cheers.

Nice. Well after running for a while I was happy to see that cpu usage and memory usage weren't crazy. Nice app.
Does it "crossfade" ??

TTPod. Unfortunately the latest version is Chinese only, but someone has made an unofficial translation. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551201
On a sidenote: does anyone know a musicplayer that supports lockscreen controls on ICS, besides the stock player? I tried Cloudskipper, ZPlayer, ÜberMusic, WinAmp, Poweramp, the MIUI player and TTPod, but none supports it afaik.
I like MIUI's music player. I think it's available to non-MIUI users. Just google it.

Have you gone through all the settings in PowerAMP? There are several pages of settings for how notifications work while music is playing, how headphones work with music/notifications/plugin/etc, and more. Pretty sure that you can configure things the way you want if you spend some time in the settings pages.
PowerAMP 2.x is working great on my Xperia Pro (MK16a), with just the slightest dimming of the music to play are very dim notification alert, and then going back to normal volume, without interrupting the music nor changing which speakers the music comes out of.
Pheonix,
I've been through all the options in PowerAMP each time a notification will come on while music is playing (depending on the settings) it's on. Music will either fade or cut out. The notification will play but the MUSIC will resume on the external speaker for about 3seconds before switching back to Internal.
It's been doing that ever since I got it and with every music playing I've tried. I'm running on stock .62 rooted and there's no customization that's been done.
Now I've actually loaded the MIUI Music player back on my phone and actually that solved my problem. So this leads me in the direction that some of the music player interfere to an extent with the notification/speaker process.
Cheers.
Actually, I just noticed this issue last night while listening to music and getting texts from the wife. This didn't happen before.
I'm fairly certain that it's a new bug, as the 1.x versions never had this problem, and the early 2.0.x versions didn't either.
I'll go through my backups and see if I can find a version that doesn't have this issue.
Have you reported this to the PowerAMP devs?
Have you tired UBERMUSIC..?????
Its awsome....!!!!!
Hi! I used Google Play Music app great for months.
Today, I opened it. It didn't find any of my music, except the one song I bought from Google Play (all the music is still on the phone, taking up 6GB of space). Consistently, the app will crash about 10 seconds after I open it. It will lock up and then a few seconds later display "Unfortunately, Google Play Music has stopped."
Any ideas of what's up?
And, if not, I guess uninstall/reinstall is the best option. Do you know if the "thumbs up" / ratings are saved somewhere if I uninstall/reinstall it? Basically, are the playlists backed up somewhere?
Thanks in advance,
P.S. Stock, no root.

No idea how to save/recover playlists, so I said fudge it. Uninstalled, reinstalled: nothing.
Found out you can call Google for support on Play apps: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/request.py?contact_type=contact_policy&policy=apps
They don't know what's up, either, but they're investigating and will get back.
Will update when I hear,
Just heard yesterday:
"We're aware of an issue with the Google Music app and are working on a fix. This issue will be resolved in the next update release."
Yeah! You go, Google!
Well, I got tired of using other players, so I diagnosed some more.
I removed all my music, edited since tags of the FLAC files I had, and imported my music back, but into my SD card this time.
Now, Google Music works perfectly! Unsure on the problem or whatever Google is attempting to fix, but it's all solid now.
Had similar issue but got so bad i reflashed rom and gapps lol, turn music up in the music app caused music fx to stop, then music app stopped then settings stopped then launcher stopped, even third party apps stopped like audio manager and doubletwist. Had been playing with pimp my rom app so thought maybe that and its interaction with my PA rom (v2.99b6) (thanks to molesarecoming) was a possible cause, but i did update google music yesterday so maybe it was that. After reflash all seems ok now no glitches, made me have a full noob panic attack though so thanks google

Since the last update, google music player will just stop playing. i will be in the middle of an album (local) and it just will stop playing. It wont change songs or albums. It just goes dead until it decides to work again...any1 else having this issue?
I have seen this and I believe I have read other reports of it as well. It started after the last update. I have rolled back to the previous version.

I'm having the same issue. Thought it was just a conflict with the custom Rom I'm using. But I hear people are having the same issues on stock Jellybean too. So it has to just be the app.
They really need to fix this, I'm having the same issue. Music just stops out of the blue and doesn't want to start back.
same issue here.. I've been using Pandora until the next update.. I may just roll mine back if they take to long to get this issue fixed..
Same issue!

Google Music stops after three songs
I'm using Google Music for streaming. It stops after three songs and won't work again until I reboot. I'm using the Odex Blue Rom, latest version 1.7. I deleted the application from the system using Root Explorer and then downloaded it as an app. It still stops. I agree it must be the application as Pandora will play and not stop. It's a real pain because now I have to move my songs down to the S3 and find another player. So much for the cloud!
****SOLUTION****
DOWNLOADED old Google Play Music and it works. Deleted the version I have on my S3 (the latest version from the Google Play store). Googled "Google Music Player apk" and found a 4.1 version. Downloaded the 4.1 apk and installed. It worked. Played for over one hour with no stops from the Google cloud. Then I went back to Google Play Store and said download the latest version. But all I wanted to do is check the box that says don't automatically update and then I closed the install. I don't know how to get it not to automatically update any other way.
I've been having this issue also, sort of. I lose sound when playing music from rocket player or music player, song time counter keeps moving but no sound. Just out of curiosity are you guys having problems with other players or just Google streaming? I had this issue even before 4.1.2.
