Yeah try that again. I've changed some of the database around since the first build that got pushed to the marketplace. That may be the issue. If not, I'm planning on pushing out a minor update this week.. I will do some extra testing and see if I can reproduce what you are running into.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
New version being submitted today! Hopefully it will be approved in a few days rather than the norm.

* Fixed offline caching

* Added a few sorting options

* Improved search feature

* Fixed album art not displaying on pin

Again, if anyone is running into any serious issues or just want to comment post here. Also, let's get these ratings up! =)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nilsk123:
still nothing.. its been a few weeks
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Ahh that's what I get for not checking the thread in a few weeks. I made a large post from my phone which obviously never got posted and thought it did. I ran into an issue with the local caching that caused me to push back a week and do some more testing. I've since then fixed the issue and I put a submission in last night so you'll see the update this week :). I ALSO have an interesting concept I'm working on for the app. I won't reveal anything yet until I know it will work right, but may be something you all will enjoy!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nilsk123:
any update on when itll be in marketplace?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] andymck:
Hi,

Just had to uninstall and reinstall due to not logging me in. This cured that problem but there seems to be a huge wait time for songs to start on 3g making it almost of no use.

Even over wifi its taking 15-20 secs to start playing the tune.

Any ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Due to the lovely app hub taking an entire week to "test" then come back and tell me that it doesn't work on the 256 MB devices (although the emulator seemed to work great for me), I have to do some tweaks and get it right for those low memory devices.

Andymck, I fixed the slowness issue in this upcoming update.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] andymck:
Cheers dude. Will await release.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
As an update. I'm awaiting the certification again so good luck I guess? :).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] luckydog98:
Hi,

I've just decided to start using this app but it continues to crash on we during login. I do have version 1.1 which states it is fixed. I'm just curious if you have any ideas for me? Thanks for the work and support!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Is it crashing while it says Logging in or when it says Loading Library? If it crashes at Loading Library, is it immediate or after some time? I would recommend doing a reboot and trying it again or also uninstalling/reinstalling.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] luckydog98:
It is doing it during both instances. I just went ahead and tried your suggestions but none of them worked.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Hmm this is the first I've heard of this issue since this version was released. Which phone do you have? PM me
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
All,

As usual I am waiting on our lovely App Hub to test the new version so I can get it out to the users. I hope everyone has liked this app so far since it has changed significantly since the beta back in October. With that said, send an email to jeremy@simclairinat0r.com with suggestions for improvements, new functionality, or even some feedback.

Thanks for all who have supported the app
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
All,

The v1.2 passed certification so give it about 24 hours to fully propogate out to the MarketPlace. Sometimes if you go to the app within a few hours, it will give an Update Now. Check it out!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] AdamBlue:
This new update has been great. I can transition between calls and bluetooth devices with little hiccup. It does restart the track, but that's good enough. Though, one time it started playing the track I would be on if I didn't take the call, then quickly went back to the track I was on. That is interesting.

But, if I try to pull down the latest, all my music disappears. Logging in doesn't work unless I restart. But I can't complain; this latest version is very fast and stable when doing things like texting, making calls, and using bluetooth devices.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to look into the Get Latest and the Reinitialize Library functions and see if I can get a stable solution for it. I have some ideas on how to make it work (since Google keeps changing stuff). I'll do what ever I can to make sure this app leaves a great user experience. I'm going to add some features to send diagnostic logs in the next version so I can get a handle on the common bugs that others are experiencing.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Dbeattie:
Did you get paid? You could put a support ticket in and they might answer it in a week or 2 :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Oh I put in two different ones. The technicians both came back with the damn app hub documentation that I already read. No help whatsoever lol
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Dbeattie:
Not sure if this makes sense:

" Payments are usually between 5 and 15th of the second month after a quarter ends."

And I think that applies, once the threshold has been met.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
You've given more information than app hub support did lol. They just told me it would be 30 days after they were.able to retrieve all of the payments.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Dbeattie:
I created a submission when I changed my description, the formatting got messed up and I changed a few words. It was sitting there for a few days because it still has to be certified even if you change a description. Well, not the submission has vanished. It's really strange, no certification failed or anything like that, it didn't go through because the wording didn't change, it's just gone, wtf.

edit: oh, I got an invite for early access to the win8 store and asked to port my app so I said I'd look in to it. Yeah, with no SQLCE, that's going to be a problem. Hopefully it gets added or that's a big wtf.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Ouch vanishing submission? That sucks! I made the mistake of accidentally clicking Edit Details which I found out later AUTOMATICALLY kicks off a MetaData Update regardless if you changed any text or not. Oh and this happened after my FIRST submission too so this is why it took like a month for v1.1 to come out. The Metadata update got stuck in some stale status for 5 days so they cancelled it and let me do it again... THIS time, I found out that my app had a bug that I needed a crucial update for so they cancelled it and said I should be able to post an update.. WRONG, it cancelled the metadata update so I had to do another metadata update. Painful.

NO SQLCE??? NOPE that's a big fail. They need to get that quickly!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Dbeattie:
Yeah, a db is sort of important, at least, I thought so. It's probably not asyc-a-fied yet.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nwskipro:
Any chance to get auto-playlists added to the app?!

Also, resuming where the song left off would be great as well (as opposed to the song starting over after going out of the app for a little)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Dbeattie:
The problem is, if you're streaming it and you pause it for a certain amount of time, I can't remember how long, the link google returns for streaming expires. One would have to save off the position, request the song again, and fast forward to the old position. That would be cool though.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nwskipro:
Gotcha, good to know, thanks!

I am still hoping for the "autoplaylist" feature to be added, if possible!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Autoplaylist and playlist editing will be in the next version. In terms of pausing and playing late, it will keep the position for a long time until the background audio either runs garbage collection on itself or you plugin/unplug headphones. I've seem it happen a few times when unplugging and pluggin headphones and un pausing.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Everyone,

I've been working to add new features while trying to tweak others. I hope to have v1.3 ready to push by Tuesday at the latest.

Wish me luck!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] AdamBlue:
I've run into a problem recently, but it may be my phone as the other Google Music app does it as well: Either during playback on the next track or startup and starting a track, it just sits there and never plays music. The only way to fix is uninstalling and reinstalling. But, it may be my phone; Radar 4G. I want to do a reset of the phone, but it's crucial that I keep my text messages intact for now.

Other strange phone issues that could be affecting this behavior: phone thinks battery is low when it's not. Not sure if that causes issues when pulling down data.

I don't think the Radar is that widely used, so I'm unsure if others having been having problems as well.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Yeah that's a phone issue. My phone was actually starting to do that because of the phone being in some data deadlock where it was acknowledging that it had data, but wasn't letting any data transfer go through. I had to toggle between airplane mode and toggle my WiFI. One thing I've noticed though.. I've run the Tango 8773 packages on my phone and my data is PERFECT as of now. I haven't had any issues. I would maybe try THAT or wait until your operator starts rolling out Tango updates (If they do).

BTW everyone, I've been super busy, but am working hard on the next version of this app. I thought I'd have it for this week, but unfortunately I don't. It'll be coming soon though as I fix these issues that impair the user experience.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nilsk123:
any news on an update? :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
I don't have a definite ETA at the moment. Its been really busy lately. I have been doing some testing though to get the get latest and reinitialize library functions working perfectly. Ive made a few different implementations and now I just have to choose the one that makes the biggest sense.

Please bear with me for now and post all the weird issues you run into or even some changes that you think would make it more appealing.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] uncled1023:
Hey, I am running the latest version on the marketplace on my HTC Titan. When I try to login, it just stays on the login page saying "logging in". I have tried this for both <username> and <username>@gmail.com with no luck. Any ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Yeah the current version is bugged out due to one line google changed. I was hoping for my update to at least be out by today but we all know how long the certification process takes. Sorry for the inconvenience everyone. Whenever The dev team is done testing, the new version will be on the marketplace
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] g00p:
Any update on ETA or what the normal turn around time for this is? I'm looking forward to trying this app.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Well thanks to SOMEHOW the ID_CAP_MEDIALIB being taken out of the marketplace compiled package, The update fixes the login problem, but presents a problem which prevents songs from playing. I've put a "fix" in the package and resubmitted it since it takes 2-3 days to get a reply back from support. So we're looking at yet another week.

SORRY EVERYONE FOR THIS SETBACK

CloudMuzik will now remain free for its entire lifecycle because I'm tired of having the users and me pissed off when it takes so long to get a fix pushed out. WP8 and Windows 8 versions WILL be coming .
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] g00p:
You rock. I guess it is one major negative of relying on another service and trying to build an app to access it when it should be already provided by the company itself. Hard to hold you in the wrong when Google changes something, its not like they ask you first. :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] uncled1023:
Got the update today, and it works. :) Thanks a lot!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] habnzrot:
+1^^ just tried this app again and found to be back and working:highfive:
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
All,

The v1.2.1 update is out that fixes playback. It works =). I ended up breaking the background artist pictures during my troubleshooting, but that will be fixed on the next update
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xdrc45:
I downloaded the app from the market yesterday and just got the update today. I have yet to get the app to work. Everytime I press login, it says "Logging in...." then goes to "Loading Library...." and I immediately get an error screen that says -

" Error

An error has occurred that has caused the app to crash,

Press OK to send an e-mail to support or press cancel to exit otherwise"

Any idea how to fix this?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Try uninstalling/reinstalling the app if you haven't already.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xdrc45:
Tried and just did it again but still getting the same error.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
PM me with the type of phone you have, wp7 version, if you have a custom rom or not, your unlock state, and your song count in your library.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
TO EVERYONE WHO UPGRADED TO A WP8 DEVICE

Microsoft informed me that when they ported CloudMuzik to work with WP8, it crashes. They've provided me a fix to add into the Manifest xml file (I don't know why they couldn't do it themselves.. blah blah). I had to re-submit it, but this gave me time to provide a few fixes.

* The login cookie for Google gets refreshed everytime you open the app to prevent songs from not playing any more after a few weeks [BIG FIX]

* Re made logic for grabbing the song library. This should help others who are having issues with getting their complete libraries on their phones

* Added a song count to the Settings page that displays the local library song count. This will be good information for those wanting to see if everything is on their phone or not

Again, sorry for this delay. I was given the impression that this app wouldn't appear in the marketplace until I fixed the issues, I was wrong.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
All,

Microsoft's port of the WP7 to WP8 still fails even with the suggestion they gave me. The good thing about this is that it forced me to finish the WP8 version. I've submitted this version last week and hope to see it on the marketplace before the week ends. I've tested it thorougly on my Lumia 920 with 19,745 songs and it works EVEN FASTER than the WP7 version. Once the new version comes out, please remember to post any bugs (I'm sure some will appear) and rate the app.

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Ashex1:
Any word on when the new update will hit phones? None of the other google music apps work and are pretty much dead apps :(
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
I'm waiting for the App Hub on this. I've submitted my pure WP8 version and it was "published" 12/6, but due to an "error on the back end system", it's not appearing in the Store. The crappy part is that I am almost done with the update to that update. Whenever I FINALLY hear back from the App Hub support tech, I'll know what is going on. I think what I'm going to do is just make another app and name it CloudMuzik8 (which will also be the name of the WinRT/Win8 version that will be coming out at some point ;)) and then see if I can set the 7.5 version to show only on the WP7 Market. I'll see if this is possible and if it is then that will be the road I take for this. .

More updates to come soon.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
UPDATE: The App Hub's "workaround" is out and 1.2.1.3 exists in the marketplace. The only thing though is that something screwed up (could've been an error on my part) and it's only set to work with WVGA screens (Lumia 820/822 is the only WP8 model out right now that fits that). I have gone through and made sure that everything is set for all phones to work with 1.2.1.4 (which has been submitted).

More updates coming *_*
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Ashex1:
Hurray! Update popped up on my phone today for 1.2.1.4! After the update was able to login and sync, haven't had the opportunity to actually use the app though.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nicoboum:
Thank you very very very much for this app.

It looks good and works flawlessly on my brand new HTC 8X :)

Google Music was the only app I knew I'd have missed from Android, having such a great app (furthermore, for free) is more than I could have hoped !
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] kstja0:
Just bought a Nokia Lumia 620. Installed the latest vesion of Cloudmuzik, but it just doesn't work. Still get the error back, after loggin in and the loading library message, that an error has occured that crashed the app. Press OK to send an e-mail to support or Cancl otherwise.

Installed, uninstalled the app a few times. Still no luck. Could this be hardware related?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
PM me the Microsoft Account email address you use for Marketplace access and I'll send you a beta
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] kstja0:
you've got an PM!

Thanks in advance

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] schiznik:
Hey snickler/Jeremy,

Just installed this on my wp7.8 phone (HTC radar, totally stock other than it being connected to the exchange servers at work). I can't seem to login to my Google account, it sits at 'Logging in' for hours.

I have a hosted domain, rather than a *@gmail account - does your app support this?

Does it use any non standard ports that might be blocked by work?

Cheers :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
I'm currently working on a fix for this. It seems to ONLY be affecting 7.5/7.8 users. It DOES support hosted domains though. I'm going to be releasing a beta later on today with a few tweaks that should address this issue. If you don't mind, can you go back into the app and press the Send Logs menu item from the application bar to send me logs? Also, PM me the Live ID account that you used when first setting up your phone so I can get you into my beta.

This goes for anyone that is having this same exact issue on WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] zgomot:
Any news on the progress of the universal app?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
The app is ready! Please PM me your e-mail addresses and I will send the xap along. Please note that spots for testing are limited.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] NoMercyWWE:
Have already pmed you but maybe the board had somehow removed my message (or chrome just sucks on xda) i would like to be part in your beta test - please send me the apk to sascha.maas67@live.com!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] emuneee:
You can probably reverse engineer it based on how the Google Music app for Android interacts with the service.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lucas.scott:
Hey man .. UI definitely needs some work ;) But i know it will get there .

Im not exactly sure how you are creating this , but regardless , Why is there a song limit ?

Also The search function is not working for me . And the song view is sort of in alphabetical order ... but not entirely .

-VZW Trophy

-Chevron Unlock

-Official Mango

Please do continue the good work . This was one of the few things i was missing from Android .
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nilsk123:
So any ETA for an updated beta? Would love me some search functionality :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Next week will start the last iteration of the beta testing for current testers with new functionality. From there, more testing on my part then off to the Marketplace! Stay tuned!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nilsk123:
okay mate, thanks for the update! cant wait :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
No problem. I'm working on speeding up the process in which the library is pulled down. I may throw in a nice feature for caching a specific amount of songs on the device locally too ;).

Here's what I have for the next beta so far:

Jump list for Albums (sorted)

Ability to play full album

Jump list for Artists (sorted)

Ability to play all songs from a specific artist

More will come!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] flex0r:
if any more betatest slots ever open up, please do let me know, would love to try this on the lumia!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ZeuBug:
Same for me! ;)

Thanks for your work, it will be a great app on Marketplace!!! :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
I thank the supporters definitely for this! I do have an update this week hopefully. Have a funeral the day before Thanksgiving (sigh), but I'm working hard on getting this last iteration of the beta out before I push to get this into the Marketplace.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] NoMercyWWE:
oh jeremy my heartfelt sympathy! Hope you manage your loss soon!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Thanks! I think she would want for me to do my best and use my talents so I'm doing just that :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] returned4good:
Sent an email a couple weeks back about the app crashing during login, but never heard back. Has there been an update or fix since?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
I'll PM you.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Check the first post for updates
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nwskipro:
just curious as to your thoughts on making the app work with more than 1,000 songs. something we might be able to expect in future updates to the app or too complicated or?

either way, great work on getting this going, very much looking forward to being able to start using this! thanks a bunch!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
The final submitted app will be able to work with ALL songs. The 1000 songs is just for beta purposes and to let others know that this app is more than a concept. I found a small bug that I'm working on that when complete will make it marketplace ready :).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] marianpower:
i love this software !
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] returned4good:
I can't wait to try it out.

Sent from my HD7 T9292 using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nwskipro:
Awesome, great work again! Very much looking forward to this! Feel like I need to donate!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Thanks for the donation.. Another announcement. I may be ready to deploy Beta 2 by tomorrow at latest! I will update the first post with further details.

Can't wait for the nexy beta :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] kwill:
Good to hear. Thought you may be saying forget it. :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] snickler:
Not at all =). Been working hard on this between work and im almost satisfied. I was trying to release tonight but my head is thumping. Good news is that im waking up early so be prepared =)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] kwill:
Understood. We all have to make a living. And most of it aren't doing it through XDA. I'll be ready for sure and will be up early. Maybe CHevron labs will have their crap together tomorrow so that I can get a token to unlock my TItan. Would love to try cloudmuzik on that. If not, guess I have to grab the HD7 back from the lady:)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] NoMercyWWE:
jeremy im sure you will contact me as soon as you want me to test the updated version so i will wait for your mail as usual!

Best wishes NoMercyWWE
