Music player widget recommendation - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone got any good recommendations for a music player, thanks

Power amp is still the best music player hands down.
I have tried many many players - nothing compares, the widgets are good too and allow custom skins.
Check it out.

I've been using power amp but the bass is distorted when streaming to Bluetooth devices (soundbars, high etc) whereas stock player doesn't, I've tried different presets and fiddled

If you fall in the small category that doesn't like poweramp give shuttle a shot. Was my favourite player until I realized how dope play music actually is lol

Power amp widget + lockscreen notification + status notification. Didn't find anything better yet.

Mediaplayer Notifications

Hello,
This is a dumb question, to the Desire's owners. Does the media player gives you notifications in the notifications bar ? For example when the media player is sent to background and still playing ? Are there any controls there to pause or stop the music ?
Does the controls resides also on the lock screen ?
What I'm searching is a similar functionality compared to Galaxy S.
Thanks for the answers !
The music player stays up in the notifications bar, plays in the background (like every Android media player :-D) and gives you controls on the lock-screen.

[Q] Album art quality decreased when shown on lockscreen.

I embedded some high quality album cover art for my music yet when it displays on the lockscreen the quality is still decreased. Also any image above 3mb doesn't show up at all. This is all using the default music player. Is there a fix for this?

Edge Panel for Now Playing music?

Is there an Edge Panel available with music controller and that displays Now Playing from various applications viz. YouTube, Saavn, Spotify? So, instead of sliding from top one can just slide from side to control music?

Missing Equalizer in Note 10 plus

Anyone knows why the equalizer for the frequency, bass treble are missing? It was so useful in Note 9
Im trying to translate from my swedish note 10+: Settings -> Sound and vibration -> Advanced sound settings -> Sound quality and effects -> Equalizer
Yes it is still there but only with preset equalizer. Now we can't change the frequency bass anf treble
Did you click custom?
Yes but no bass why Treble adjustment.
Can't find it either. I'm guessing you mean those two 'wheels' you could turn for quick changing?
When I choose custom I got them, but not the wheels:
So basically only the advanced custom equalizer? I am OK with that, as I never used the wheels anyway. Always used the custom tab to adjust the equalizer.
I am not sure I am the only one, but on Samsung phones, adjusting the equalizer for most of the db settings actually made the sound far quieter. The only way to get the most sound was to leave the equalizer almost the same everywhere but maybe the middle to settings one could adjust a bit. Has made me wonder if the DAC in the Samsung phones is simply trying to not allow people to hurt their hearing by cranking up certain bandwidths in the custom equalizer settings. Not a huge deal, but kind of disappointing that a phone this expensive doesn't have a kick ass DAC and even normal equalizer settings to play with.

I have the same complain and worst, this level decrease affect Bluetooth too, so, isn't a DAC thing but maybe, a normalization setting kicking in when a particular frequency is boosted....
How I miss the old "two wheels" to adjust EQ like the one in Note9, I think it worked much better than the multiband equalizer in S10/Note10

For music get the paid for Poweramp player. Excellent equalizer and much more.
This is the one you want to handle audio thru put.
It has a lot of settings and will take a considerable amount of time to set up all it's features.
Completely customizable.
Export and save settings. If reloaded on a new OS it will reaquire it's library in under a minute (I have over 6000 wav files organized as albums). It automatically rebuilds playlists as long as you saved the settings ie SD card etc.
Developer continues to support and update it.
Trick stuff, it's sweet
As this old thread is woken up, I might add that the old wheels where OP was looking for are still there...but not via sound menu in settings though:
When changing volume with the rockers, press the two arrows at bottom of appearing slider on screen. The Pop-up window will expand to allow various volume settings. At top-right the equaliser icon can be pressed, which opens an again a pop-up window with equaliser settings, which includes a toggle at top (4th of right) to chose between the frequency sliders or the "two wheels" (bass-trebble and instrument-voice).
My description may suggest it is a quite a hassle, but once used and preference set it is quite ok.

Lockscreen Media Controls

Hello,
Just moved from IOS and I am missing the lock screen media controls (volume slider, album artwork, playback slider)
Is there an option or a mod that I can install to enable this? I am currently using apple music as my media player, as I have a subscription.
Thank you
Bump
Hi,
The only way I got it is by tapping the title from the control, then it shows itself.
