General :: How To Hide Local MP3s From Google Play Music

Apr 10, 2012

So I have a directory on my phone with some MP3s. I put a ".nomedia" file in the directory because I don't want these files to show up in Google Play Music

When I open 'Play Music', these files show up no matter what.

I just want Google Play Music to stream files, and I want to use an alternative player for the local Mp3s.

General :: Any Way To Play Google Drive MP3s In Background?

Sep 23, 2012

I've got a bunch of MP3s in Google Drive, and I'd like to be able to play them on my Android. The problem is that when I play an MP3 on the phone, no matter what app I choose to use to play it (and I've tried a bunch!) the MP3 opens in such a way that if I then switch to another app, playback stops. In other words, the Google Drive MP3 won't play in the background.

Is there any way to make MP3s play from Google Drive in such a way that they WILL play in the background? I've found some awkward workaround to do this -- like downloading the MP3 from the Google Drive web app, or like pinning the MP3 in the Google Drive Android app and then using an Android file manager to find the file and copy it to a folder that the music player searches -- but I really wish there was a better way!!!

General :: Playing Local MP3s From SD Or Internal Storage?

Apr 27, 2013

This should be so simple, but apparently, it's not. I have a folder on my Nexus 4 internal storage:

/sdcard/Music/Favorite Songs/Current

... with a bunch of MP3s in it with ID3 v2.4 tagging. How in the world do I add these to the Play Music app (not cloud) without using some desktop manager? I also tried installing Omich Player (a fork of Apollo) and while I can browse to the folder, none of my music shows up under artists/albums/etc.

General :: How To Hide Unwanted Google Play App Updates

Nov 22, 2013

is there any way to hide updates in Google Play for apps you do NOT want to update? A couple examples would be Google Maps (the latest version lacks zoom buttons and some other features, so I stick with an older, better, modded version: [URL]... ) and Yahoo Mail (recent updates now have ads in the inbox which look like emails). Of course, whenever I update other apps, unwanted ones like these are in the list. Besides being a visual annoyance, it eliminates the usage of the "Update All" feature.

General :: Mono - Local Files - Google Music - YouTube All Together?

May 3, 2013

Check out Mono. It takes a different approach by giving you access to all artists and their releases and then matching up content from either your local files, your files uploaded to Google Music or YouTube.

General :: Nexus 5 - Google Play Music / Song Play For A Second Then Pauses

Nov 7, 2013

Recently I've been having an issue with Google Play Music where when I play a song, it plays for a second then pauses, so I have to press play to get it going again. This occurs repetitively which means I can't listen to music.

It happens on songs that are being streamed and on songs that are on the device.

Funnily enough, if the song is played through ES file explorer and the little play music popup window comes up, it plays fine.

I've got this issue on both my devices, a tf101 running 4.3 and a nexus 5 with stock 4.4 rooted.

Edit: just remembered, I've also got this issue with MX Player and videos. I can't figure out what's wrong.

Streamed videos played through the gallery video player work fine.

General :: Google Play Music / Why Does It Cache Extra Music When Streaming Just One Song

Oct 9, 2012

when I want to stream one particular song I noticed that the Google Play Music app downloads and caches the previous/next few songs for quicker access. How can I prevent this? It uses a lot of data and I usually only want to listen to the one song I chose to stream.

For example if I play a 6 mb song i noticed it uses about 40 mb to stream just that one song. Then I selected a different song to stream and immediately went into settings > download queue and noticed it was loading more songs than the one I requested. I only want to listen to the 1 song I chose, so how can I prevent the other songs from loading? As far as I can see there is no way in the app's settings but there has to be another way to stop this inconvenience.

P.S. I have a T999 galaxy s3 running on stock rooted ICS

General :: Remove DRM From ITunes Music So It Can Be Uploaded To Google Play Music?

Oct 29, 2012

I currently have an iPhone 4S and I am probably going to get a Galaxy Note 2 when it comes out for Verizon. In order to prepare for this, I set up Google Play Music to upload my music so it can be ready for me when I get my new phone (I like it better than Samsung's default music player). Only one problem: protected AAC files (or DRM) can't be transferred to Play Music. I tried converting my music with 2 different DRM converters, but they were free trials, and it only would convert 1:00 of each song and then stop. Is there any free way to convert each protected song completely, along with protected videos? Also, does music on Play Music eat up an Android device's space? I have over 12 GB of music and movies and I don't want to have barely any any space left on a 16 GB device if a 32 or 64 GB ever comes out, minus the SD card.

General :: Where Does Google Play Music Store Music Files On Device

Apr 10, 2013

I have music that is playable with Google Play Music player, but not with other players. I have chosen for the music to be "on the device", and it plays when even in Airplane Mode, so I know it is not streaming, but the music files do not show up in my "Music" directory tree, or under any other file trees that I can find. I have used ES File Explorer to do a top down search for some of the missing titles, but it doesn't find them. I'm perplexed. There must be a cache somewhere, but I can't find it.

General :: Upload To Google Play Music From Google Drive?

Nov 22, 2012

just trying out Google Play Music today. I'm confused though as I have around 10000 music files sitting in a folder on Google drive. I can't see an option to ask Google Play Music to look into Google Drive and upload the music from there. I have connected my Google play music app on my nexus 7 to my Google account' but nothing seems to happen. Surely Google is able to connect two parts of its cloud together and I don't have to re upload everything?

General :: How To Hide Device From Local Network

May 8, 2014

At work, we are networked together (not wireless), anyone can type, for example \cpu1253c$ and you are now mapped to that person's computer, you can view anything on there and they don't even know you are in their computer. So I am wondering how to hide or protect my phone when it's plugged in, just charging or as a disc drive. I could use a wall charger but when I want to do file transfers, I am not sure if anyone can access my phone (Samsung S4). I am not sure what kind of network our company is on, when I log in from home, it comes to a SSL-VPN screen, another says Sonic Wall. Today I tried the properties option in the folder I had open with my phone and there was no "no share" option that I could see

General :: Does Google Play Music App Report To Google

Jun 22, 2013

Android user on a Nexus 4 and am a bit cautious about how much info I give Google.

I'm trying to figure out if the Google Play Music app tells Google what songs I'm listening to, or sends any other information to Google for that matter. If so, is there a way to turn that function off?

I know many people don't have an issue with letting Google know these kinds of things about them and that's fine. I'd just rather not. I didn't use Apple's genius recommendations on my iPhone either.

For the Google Play Music app, I know you can pin albums and playlists to your device so you do not have to stream them.

General :: Playing MP3s From Music Folder Only

Feb 28, 2014

I use voice recorder to record meetings and when I play music offline, I'm constantly pressing skip to get the stupid thing to play the music again (on shuffle).

lot of voice recordings in say "voice recorder folder" and all my music in the "music" folder but all the music players just pull .mp3 from the whole phone because I'll go from ACDC to, "today we will be discussing in today's meeting."

Making one big playlist of music.mp3 seems like a lousy work around which is all I can think of.

I've been using google play music for the past few days. It was great and I could use the explore function to find new songs, however now the explore button is gone and whenever I try to do a search all that I get is the songs that i have saved to my library... Also on the web version of google play music, it doesn't sync any of the songs saved in my library from my device with the web version even though my device is listed there in the settings, is this normal?

This has been a rather annoying issue for quite a while. Whenever I use the commands like "Listen to (Artist or Song)" or "Play (Artist or Song)" it never seems to recognize it. Instead it just does web search of what I said, I'm not sure where the problem is in it though. I have Poweramp and Play Music installed with plenty of music on file.

General :: How To Backup Google Music Play Settings

Sep 10, 2012

How do I make a backup of my settings, or which file do I need to extract when I want to make a backup of google play?

Issue is the follwoing, As google music currently saves all the music in the Data folder on the Phone (at least in my Galaxy Nexus) and no longer on the sdcard, every time I flash a new rom or an updat I loose Google music. obviously that is not an issue as I can reinstall the app, however the files I want to have locally on the phone need to be re-downloaded. the issue is that with the new install these settings have been lost, and I need to go back in the app and mark every file to be stored offline again from scratch.

I have also tried bracking up via Ti backup, however that leads into bigger problems as after restoring the app gets reset everytime I reboot....
