General :: Convert Android Phone To Media Player (like IPod)
Aug 1, 2013
I have Xperia X10 Mini working rock solid with MiniCM10 and nAa JB 5 kernel.
I want to convert this device as Media Player (iPod) as well as can use it as second camera and backup phone.
This primary usage will be as Media Player.
1. A good Media Player app for Xperia X10 Mini (600mhz/256MB Ram, screen < 3")
2. How can i cut down the memory load to give lag free experience in media player.
3. Some light weight launcher, or how can i make media player to comeup as default instead of launcher.
XBMC doesnt work on the device, any other options?

I am not just talking about buying a cable with a female 30-pin and male mini USB I mean actually taking out the 30-pin piece of the iHome and replacing it with a mini USB. How to go about such a thing. I just don't like any of the mini usb based looking docks. Specifically I have the iHome iP9 but I imagine if it has been done with others it could be done to mine as well.

Anyone know of a media player that will play .flv files without having to convert to .mp4 or .3gp ?
Seems strange that youtube streams fine, but you can't play the downloaded files in the default media player.

I have an HTC Evo, recently switched from an iphone. Loaded just a few songs on my Evo to test out the USB to car stereo connection and it works. But I liked the way iphone worked with the stereo better because all the Evo does is show is let me browse through folders like an mp3 CD would. The iphone would let me browse through artists, albums, playlists, genre, etc, etc all from using the controls on my steering wheel. Sooooo, does anybody know of an android app that will make my car stereo browse artists, albums and playlists like it could with iphone. I know its not a big deal but it would be more convenient, probably only advantage my iphone had over Evo.

I don't want to just use an app or anything like that. All I want is:
Power On>Main Menu
Main Menu>Artists
Main Menu>Songs
Main Menu>Albums
Main Menu>Play Lists
ect., ect., ect. Maybe a search bar too.
I will be rooting it with this tutorial, but that still leaves the question of how do I achieve the above? If need be I can (attempt to) make a ROM, but I will need some tutorials (or a step-by-step-designer ROM generator ). No WiFi, no 3G. Just keyboard, touch screen, USB mass storage, and MP3/OGG support.

I have an Android phone (Nexus S) and a tablet (Xoom) and an iPod touch. What I want to know is this. Is there a way I can put my music on the Xoom and then sync my iPod touch to it?
I don't want to use the phone because the battery life isn't good enough, the ipod I can charge once a fortnight, the phone I charge daily and it wouldn't make it through a working day if I use it for my music.

I'm very interested in purchasing an inexpensive used T-Mobile G1, for the purpose of running apps, playing media, reading PDFs, browsing the web, etc, and to do this over a wifi connection. I do not intend to use it as a phone or for using data on the go over networks like 3G. I simply want a cheaper alternative to the Ipod Touch, that is a cool little pocket computer that can do a lot of useful things. So my question, is how much functionality can be had with an Android phone, without actually signing on with a carrier? Can commercial apps be purchased and installed on it over wifi only but with no carrier?

I have gotten addicted to Rockbox's bookmarking feature since I listen to a lot of audiobooks. Is there any mediaplayer for android that does this (create bookmarks whenever you pause/exit the program). Or, even allow manual bookmarking?

I want to control the Media Player on my Nexus One from my PC. This is exactly the opposite of what is done by GMote. This will let me keep my Nexus One connected with speakers from my PC and still play songs on it. Searched a while in Google and XDA, but couldn't find one.

Wondering if there is an app that you can build playlists on - similar to itune for the iphone and sync with the phone.it's irritating having to sort through over 1500 songs on my phone to build playlists, would much prefer to do it on something like windows media player and then transfer them over.

Even registering the broadcast receiver at the highest priority still fails to receive the Bluetooth media button events on the HTC Hero phone. The Bluetooth media button registration code works fine on the other Android phones that I have tested. Apparently this isn't the first time HTC has done something like this, as I also found a report of a similar problem on one of the HTC Microsoft Mobile Devices reported here
It seems extremely short sighted of HTC to code their media player so that it grabs the Bluetooth AVRCP media button events in such a way that other applications are unable to work with the Bluetooth head phone buttons and Bluetooth in car stereo systems.................

I use Windows Media Player to manage all my mp3s and playlists. I want my Samsung Galaxy S to be synchronized with my PC. I can connect my Galaxy S using "Media Player" mode and use the built-in sync with WMP, but there are issues:
1) Some mp3s get "corrupted" - how do I force WMP to "re-sync" them without losing my playlist association (if I manually add it as a file to sync, it is no longer associated with the playlist)
2) If I delete an mp3 from the device, WMP doesn't realize and won't re-sync the file again... is there a way to re-sync?
3) Sometimes WMP will re-sync playlists and each song shows up 3-4+ times when I load up a playlist on my device. I then have to wipe the Music and Playlist folder and re-sync from scratch any way around this?
4) Where are android playlists stored? The Playlists folder on the sd card can be wiped, but the playlists still show up in the music player?
5) If I make a change to a playlist on my PC, WMP will freeze and start skipping random files the playlists get corrupt and I see problem #3 occur. Essentially, if I change a playlist, I have to wipe the Music and Playlist folder and re-sync from scratch.

I was wondering if exist, or if it's possible to build, a special android release for old smartphones without basic phone functions, to be used just as standalone media player. I mean a basic distribution that allow just playing local audio files or remote files through wifi home network.
I have an old xperia x8, which is a good phone and there are a lot of android based custom roms, but i need to use it just as a media player. As soon as I power it on it has to show a list of music files to play.

I am becoming sick of the Incredible's stock player, mainly because of its poor shuffle mode. I have looked at apps like MixZing, Cubed, and DoubleTwist, but these all seem like they won't play music from both the sd card and internal phone storage like the stock player. Are there any players that will do this, and perhaps find album art like the others?

My friend and I both have a Galaxy Tab 3.
When he uses his native android video player he can see media listed from DropBox (and a little drop-box icon on the bottom left corner of the thumbnail).He also has the options "View by" under the options button and can select "view by content on DropBox ".
-> This allows him to stream the videos from dropbox on the native vid player without downloading onto the device...
I do not have these options!How do i get them?
I need this because i want to use the AllShare option for streaming to my TV that is available on the native video player.

I'm looking for an app or combination of apps where I can find a link to a movie online, stream it on my phone then using air play push it onto my tv. They only released the sony screen mirroring app to a couple of sony xperia phones so I cant use that. I dont want to have to download the movie first either.

I want to be able to use/view the video's I record with my phone on my computer. (open from an email or use in window's movie maker)I have a new computer with Windows seven at work and a Vista laptop at home. I can send the video to myself and try to open in from my email or tether to the computer and transfer the file manually. Either way I can't open with windows media player. Video's taken with default "Camcorder" app on a myTough 3G running Android 1.6.I know it has something to do with the codec's the phone uses but wonder why they wouldn't use codec's that are compatible with the most commonly used pc's?Is there any way around this? Some kind of converter for the computer or for the phone?Is there another camcorder app that can record video with a different codec or is it phone hardware specific?So far have been able to use these forum's to sort out most of my Android problems but I'm stumped on this one. It doesn't seem like it should be this hard to do. Should be more user friendly.
