I've just got android today so I apologies if this is obvious...
I want to be able to pick the artist first and then be presented with a list of their albums rather than all their individual tracks. It makes much more sense to the way I choose the music I listen to. Is this possible?

This will be my first smartphone so I am obviously new to the whole Android OS. I want this to replace my iPod Touch (not that I hate apple or anything I just want one device for everything) and was wondering how this process works on this phone exactly. I know that you can plug in your phone and manually make all of the folders for your albums and such but that seems like a lot of work.

Because they are all messed up with numbers and dashes instead of them being under the correct artist and album art it is just throwing a majority of them under unknown artist. Also how do you properly label a song so it shows up with the artist and song name? For instance a file all messed up says 03_Marylin_manson - Sweet dreams_mp3.mp3 when obviously I want the song labeled simply: Sweet Dreams under the artist Marylin Manson.

This means when I browse with the stock player (and the others I've tried) by Artist, I have 300 artists to flip through even though most of them only have one song on the SD card as part of a compilation. Is there a mp3 player app (or simple workaround, like renaming a folder) that will allow me to browse by Artist and see only artists/bands that only have a full album--or folder named for them? Apart from manually retagging all these comp tracks, that is.

When I log in on my browser, they don't show under the feed (so I can't "hide" them). Is there another way to "hide" these things, or do I simply need to stop liking bands/artists who post too much?

The mobile site works great but for some unknown reason you can't access all your albums. Mainly I'm looking for access but some kind of automatic syncing for pictures in my phone would be great.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI've tried out a few different music players, cubed, mixzing and the stock music player and I can't seem to figure out if there is any way for the apps to just mix up the order of my albums and play them like that. The shuffle features just mix up all the songs from all the albums, but I want to listen to a whole album at a time, just don't want to pick the order the albums come up in if that makes sense. Is there a way to do this with any music players?

I have a T-Mobile G2 (HTC Hero) on 1.5 at the moment and the Albums app is such a frustration. I really can't see why the developers didn't figure out a way of navigating a tree structure?
Currently I have a lot of photos and they are stored on the SD card under a directory for year (eg 2007) then a directory for month (eg 03_march) then a directory for the event/place. It's how I store them on the desktop. Of course, the Albums app simply shows me every single directory with photos in, so I lose the ability to navigate by year/month/etc.
I know that Astro file explorer can do what I want, but the image viewer it has is limited and simply not as nice as the Album app, and the thumbnails are too small. Am I alone in NOT wanting to see hundred and hundreds of "albums" but rather see my photos stored how *I* want them stored?

I also downloaded this on My mac I was able to just Command Click every single song I wanted and sync it directly to my phone straight from iTunes.And I made a folder and Copied a BUNCH of photo's from iPhoto directly into the Folder I created in my camera Gallery.
What I need to do with my Incredible is so simple and I am really amazed that this phone's photo application is as bad as it is. I have about 100 photos. I need to put them into individual folders or albums (I just need a way to separate them). I have tried everything but it does not appear as though the Incredible has this capability. I did a search and found some instructions using Astro file manager however this did not work for me. Therefore, is there any decent apps out there that will allow me to create folders (or albums) and put pics into them? I also need to somehow backup the photos (probably directly off of the SD card onto my PC).
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an android razr M and all my photos go to an album that I never make.
For example,
when I save a photo from Facebook, it goes into a album called "facebook"
when I take a photo, it goes into an album called "camera"
when I save a photo that I received through text it goes to an album called "messaging"
when I edit a photo it goes into an album called "edit"
I never made these albums, and I don't choose where the photos go. How can I create albums, and how do I put the photos I take/save into the album I want?
so far i have heard of neo music & music junk where you can get single tunes. does anyone know if and where you can get entire albums (cd) through the market?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI upload photo's from my computer to Picasa Web using Picasa, where they are stored in my Google Plus space.
Under my account sync settings in Android, along with Gmail and Contacts and all that, I've got "Sync Google Photos" and "Sync Picasa Web Albums".
What's the difference between these two choices?
If I copy a complelation album to the SD Card. How do I dispaly the contents of the album and not have a load of individual artists.
If a copy an album by one artist it works ok. I get the album name followed by a list of all the tracks which is what I want from the compelation.
Not sure if I'm missing something really obvious here When I take photos they all go into one folder. In the Albums app I can't seem to create new folders to place photos into. Am I missing something really obvious? If I need an app does anyone have suggestions?

View 3 Replies View RelatedEverything went fine, downloaded and installed in about a half hour. I was pleasantly surprised all of my contacts showed up, all my apps were still there just like I had it when I had 1.5. Oh, and texts and recent calls still being there was another plus.One thing doesn't seem to be working though.My albums are gone! Well, not really. They're still on the SD card with their respective pictures in them, in the albumthumbs folder. I can't see them on the phone, though. My question is this: Does anyone else have this problem? And has anyone fixed it? I tried unmounting the card and remounting, and they still didn't show up. Is there another directory they have to be in with 2.1?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just transferred a bunch of pictures (over 2000) from my ipod to my mytouch 4g slide. I had them all in neat little albums on the ipod and i would like to do the same on my phone. Problem is i cant figure out how, other than putting the files into separate folders on my sd card, which i don't like because i like to have a general folder of all of them together with separate albums for specific things, and sometimes a picture would go into more than one album. Is there an app or a way to do this on my phone, I don't mind if the app creates copies of my pictures as long as the original files are left untouched. And is there a way to organize my pictures by name rather than date? Because when I transferred them it don't keep date it was added but rather the date i copied it, and when organized by name its correct because of the numbers in the file name.

For example, when I enter my photo gallery, there are bunch of albums, blogs data, twitter data, random stuff from my google account which I DO NOT want on my phone.

How do I remove them?

I have a droidx 2. I am trying to create a photo album to send to friends. I tried to figure it out on my own and it shows a little icon that made an album, and I have supposedly inserted photos into it, but when I click on it, it doesn't show the pictures in the album. So I don'tdont even know if they are in there or what. how to send it via email if possible. I have the entire droidx 2 64-pg manual downloaded to my device, and none of it says anything about albums.
