HTC Incredible : Android 2.2 - Playlist Will Appear Alphabetically And Then Disappear

Nov 15, 2010

With my old phone, MyTouch, Android 1.6, I would export a playlist from iTunes as an .m3u file, and copy that playlist file over to /sdcard/music/playlists so that it would be on my phone. I manually copy all of the music from the playlists into /sdcard/music so that every song that is in said playlists is in the music directory. The music app would take awhile to update and read everything, but once I gave it some time to work, everything worked wonderfully. That was all I had to do.

With my new phone, Incredible, Android 2.2, when I do the same steps, it doesn't work. I open the music app, go to the playlist option, and it thinks and thinks and thinks. Then each playlist will appear, alphabetically, and then disappear, until there are no playlists at all.

I read some forums online and have tried multiple things, and apparently Android 2.2 reads the SD card looking for music, and when reading a playlist, if it can't find any of the songs in the list, it deletes the playlist. The playlist is not only deleted from the list in the music app, but is completely deleted from the SD card entirely.

Here is my concern... When this playlist is exported, it has the path from C: on my computer, because that is where the music is housed on the computer. Moving it to my phone has never been a problem previously because it ignored the C: path and just found the song, without worrying about the additional directory information. But the newer version of Android isn't doing the same thing, I think it's more picky?

Anywho, I need my playlists! I don't want to use MediaMonkey, and the m3u files have worked fine in the past - quick and easy, without having to use additional programs. I really, really, REALLY don't want to have to go through these playlist files and remove all of the path information because these are huge lists, but I guess I might have to. Do you have any other ideas on what I can do to make this work?

I've tried different directories for the playlists on the phone - but I don't think that's the problem because the phone can SEE the playlists, and then deletes them. I've tried creating a playlist on the phone so that I could see the format of it, but the playlist that I created can't be found on the phone. I don't know how the phone creates them, or where it houses them, as I tried to search for it and was unsuccessful.

HTC Incredible :: CardioTrainer Music Bug - Always Says Playlist Empty / Resolve It?

Jul 3, 2010

This app seems great, but I'm having a problem getting the music portion to work. When I Enable it, and select a playlist, it always says the playlist is empty. Now, my music is stored on the phone memory and not the sd card, but if it can find the playlists and display for me to choose, why is it not seeing the songs on them?

Android :: List Contacts Alphabetically By Last Name?

Feb 23, 2010

My HTC Hero lists my contacts alphabetically by first name. Short of inputting them last name first, can they be listed first name first and still come alphabetized by last name? i.e. Bill Smith before Ken Sorels and still be in a group with other people with "S" last names? Is this a procedure problem or is their an app for this?

Media :: Music Player Sorting Songs Alphabetically

Dec 14, 2009

I have the Samsung Moment, and I've run into this problem with both the default Music app as well as MixZing. Haven't tried any others yet, though.

So, everything but about 3 (out of a few hundred, haha) songs is tagged properly and shows up under artist as one expects, sorts into the correct albums and all - but within albums the songs go alphabetically, rather than by track number.

Does anyone know how to make my songs actually show up in the correct album order instead of just alphabetical order? Kind of messes things up if you're trying to listen to a musical.

Android :: Ringtones Playlist App?

Apr 22, 2010

I was curious...does anyone know if there is a app out there that allows you to add a playlist of ringtones? Everytime you recieve a call it would be a random ring tone from the list. If you have specifically set a ring tone for a specific contact, then that one will play when they call you, but if no ring tone is set...then it would pick a random one from your playlist.

Android :: HTC Tattoo Playlist Error?

Jul 7, 2010

When i add new songs to my HTC Tattoo Android Phone, it correctly adds the songs to the list in the standard Music Player.

But when i delete songs from the phone through USB-connection, the songs stays on the playlist, even though they dont exist.

This has resulted in a playlist of over 400 songs, which only 40 of them actually works..

Is there any way to force a renew on the playlist so i can get a "clean" playlist?

Android :: Deleting Music From A Playlist

Dec 22, 2009

As of right now I am using the stock Music widget on the droid for my music. I made several playlists today but now would like to move some songs to another playlist and delete them from the original playlist. However there is no way to do this. The only option I found was to delete the song from the library all together! Any apps you all recommend that might be better to use for my music?

Android : Want To Use A ManagedQuery() To Look At Playlist Members

Apr 13, 2010

I am wanting to query the members of a given playlist. I have the correct playlist id, and want to use a managedQuery() to look at the playlist members in question.

What I have is this: Code...

I don't know what the volume argument needs to be. I've tried this: MediaStore.Audio.Playlists.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI.toString() for the "volume" argument.

That gives me back a valid content URI that looks like:

content://media/external/audio/playlists/2/members

However, my cursor comes back null. I probably am way off base -- I know what I want to do is very simple.

Android :: Playlist Based Audio Player

Jul 18, 2010

I am looking for an Android Audio Player that is based on a "now playing" playlist, like Amarok, Winamp or WMP. In relation with that playlist, I want buttons to add a song as the next song, or to add the song to the end of the playlist. Like the Rockbox firmware does it. Is there any app out there that works like this? I don't need any advanced features like lyrics, covers, etc, I just want to listen to music. In case there's nothing around, I'll even consider developing my own. Who needs synched lyrics if there's not even an "add next" option?

and then look at the MediaStore.Audio.PlaylistsColumns.NAME column. There is a data column too, MediaStore.Audio.PlaylistsColumns._DATA, but it is returning null. The list of songs (MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI/id) do not seem to show any playlist affiliation.

Android :: Any Way To Add Songs To G1 Playlist From Windows Explorer?

I'd rather do it via Windows Explorer with a right-click function, but I don't believe there is one. Is there any way I can add songs on my G1 to a playlist using Windows Explorer?

It opened Meridian and showed the playlist file name, etc, but not the actual playlist. Is there any way to get this to work and actually play (or load) the playlist?

Android : K-9 Mail Epic Disappear Out Of Inbox

Sep 28, 2010

It randomly selects email, last time it was 1, this time 3. First poll, they disappear out of the inbox, next poll they show up as unread even though they're 2 weeks old. Leaving them as unread doesn't help, they still disappear, and come back as unread, but for some reason not on every poll. Tried to make friends with google, but all I find is other forum complaints that are similar but not exact, with no solutions. And Issue 719: Inbox shows old email. Anybody else going through this? It seems as though they're doing nothing to fix it.
