Isn't it just easier to copy/paste your music collection directly to the phone?
[Android Apps and Games] J_Dutch:
Lol! Google music is all about streaming music and now you suggest this. There is no reason whatsoever to use the worst player (Google music) to play your own mp3 collection which in my case doesn't exist.

[Android Apps and Games] Quiksilver78:
Why would anyone cache the entire library through GMusicFS or Play Music though? isn't that effectively the same thing as copying your entire music library directly to your phone for "offline" use?

Play Music has its merits for those 16GB devices with people owning 20GB mp3/FLAC collections. You obviously can't store your entire music collection on your phone so pinning maybe a handful of albums and the rest you leave it on the cloud. But to pin everything? It's a bit redundant isn't it?

And what was that bit about playing your MP3 collection "which in your case doesn't exist"? say what?
[Android Apps and Games] JayXL14:
Hey guys I have quite a bit of music on my Google Music account but very little space on my Nexus 4.. I just came across GMusicFS and it seems like this could work for me.

- I see that it works with PlayerPro well, does it also work with PowerAMP or no? (I saw a post from a few months ago saying it doesn't, but I can't find anything about now).

- I have very little space on my phone so I just want to stream my songs from PlayerPro or whatever app I use, WITHOUT it using up the space on my phone. I'm not sure if the Google Music app is like this, because whenever I go into the App Info it seems to cache a lot of the music and waste my storage.

- Is it about the same speed as streaming via data as the Google Music app or is it slower? Battery life about equal to using the Google Music app also?

- Just out of curiosity, how much data does Google Music, or even GMusicFS use? I listen to a lot of music, so I wish I had more storage on my phone to make it easier, but I don't. If I listen to a 10MB song, does that use 10MB of my data? I have 5GB of 4G data/month, which is a lot, but I'm just curious because I listen to music quite a bit.
[Android Apps and Games] dbng:
Turns out the problem is the unmount, not the mount. After the initial successful mount (after boot), if I try to unmount I get "Unmount: failed to kill filesystem process". If I exit GMusicFS and try to restart it the mount fails with "Cannot kill stale filesystem process before mounting. You man need to reboot to get rid of this error.

I've tried cleanup and resync as well as uninstall/reinstall but still have the same issue.

[Android Apps and Games] J_Dutch:
The difference is that I want to do it legal and not against the law. Caching through Google play is free and legal, downloading via torrents and store it on my device is not. That's why my mp3 collection doesn't exist. I have CD's and Google music. No downloaded mp3's, I care about copyright. :)

I agree it's impossible to store your entire library but it would be great if we could store a few albums easily.

[Android Apps and Games] Quiksilver78:
I get it. I think.

No one said anything about breaking the law though lol

Plus, the post said to cache "everything"; which again begs the question: why would anyone do that?

---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------

It does. At least, I'm using it now with PowerAmp.

I've noticed that it is a tad slower. Google Play Music streams right away (relatively speaking) while PowerAmp takes a few seconds longer to play the song. This probably has to do with buffering settings included in the app. Not sure if it's advisable to change this, but it could be why Poweramp takes a bit more time to play the track.
[Android Apps and Games] MnRAZB:
Just a quick question, i used search and tried to look through all 50 some pages of the thread, but,

Does this require Google Music to be installed on my phone, i have finite space on the N5 and GPM takes up nearly 200mb, can i delete it?
[Android Apps and Games] Olioaglio:
No, GMusicFS is independent from Google Music App.

Cheers, Olioaglio
[Android Apps and Games] MnRAZB:
knew that just wasnt sure if it needed to re-sycn/mount..thanks for your quick response

EDIT: Does a song need to play the whole way through to be cached to the SD? or just have it buffer 100%

thanks in advanced
[Android Apps and Games] Papa Midnight:
Unsuccessful

Just downloaded this from the Google Play market, and tried to install it. After starting it, the app requested root. I granted it. Then, when I added my Google account, it requested permissions from Google which were granted. I hit Sync, and I receive an error of "Bad status: 404 response body: [Insert Bulk HTML here]."

Here is a screenshot of what I see.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Yes, it's broken.
[Android Apps and Games] Papa Midnight:
Ah, I didn't know that. :( Sorry to hear that. Hope to hear of a fix soon! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] g2gsr:
I know that you acknowledged that it is broken, but you did not mention if you are working to fix it. I'm getting the same thing as papa. Rooted, stock, Nexus 5. Let me know if you would like logs sent to help. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Some recent changes made by Google broke it. It can probably be fixed but I don't know when. Until then, I unpublished the app from Google Play.

Hi thanks for the great app, i wanted to ask if it is possible to mount two different accounts contemporary (i have two google music account with different genres: electronic and rock/metal for better organizations) or can i save the music from one account and keep it when i switch to the other.
[Android Apps and Games] XASPERATED:
just how!

Hi, ive been trying to get to work since a day but I have been unable to do so.

I have installed the app and it says that the filesystem has been mounted successfully. However when I go to the pin tab I see all the albums but on clicking the checkbox I see 0/0 selected.

Ive tried the default walkman app on my xpera s (4.1.2 JB), player pro, rockbox, zplayer but to no avail. Do i have to install the fuse filesystem seperately first or does JB take care of this? Please any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.

[Android Apps and Games] DaRk_PoPoM:
Hi,

First of all thanks for this very useful app ! I've been looking for it for a very long time.

I have a little "problem" with 1.0.13 : I can't find any playlist in the "pin" tab.

Maybe it's because I have an error when syncing playlists (see attachment)?

I did a full sync, a cleanup then a full sync an no more success.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.

[Android Apps and Games] fasthair:
I sent in a tip on it after my post. I see now that it was featured about a year ago but I missed it I guess. Not that it matters. I'm happy with the app and it works fine for me.

Just a FYI to those having problems. The app must stay running and the FS must be mounted before you launch the music player.

[Android Apps and Games] J_M_V_S:
Just revisited this app after seeing it again in the XDA News. I must say it's working amazingly good. I'm currently using the HTC One (Dual Sim version) with stock (Sense) ROM KitKat 4.4. It works perfectly with the native music player (HTC Music) which is great as is integrates with a lot of other things in the phone.

Once again, many thanks for the app! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] cuezaireekaa:
Same here. Using it on the amazing Gonemad Music Player and Note 3. Working well so far.

Bought it a long time ago but just stopped using it due to the unmount/mount, or sync problems I was having.

Seems a little more reliable now. Always has been an amazing app Tho!

Running fine with PowerAmp on a Verizon HTC One M8. Music app couldn't see anything (not that I care, I hate that app). I can't quite see the logic of having it run with Google Music. Am I missing something?

Do you suggest leaving the filesystem unmounted unless Poweramp is running?
[Android Apps and Games] xReaper7x:
Would this work with the Stock HTC One M8 music app?
[Android Apps and Games] graffixnyc:
That's odd that it works on your Verizon model. It reboots my AT&T model every time it goes to mount. I have my runtime set to ART, I'm thinking that may have something to do with why it reboots my phone as that's the only thing different software wise from my m7 as I'm running the m8 port on that device..
[Android Apps and Games] hgoldner:
It didn't work on my stock music app.

As to the following post mentioning reboot, my M8 rebooted the first time I ran PowerAmp after the scan, but everything worked fine after the reboot, regain of root, and running PowerAmp.

[Android Apps and Games] pipergca:
Wow this app is amazing. So far working flawlessly with Neutron Music Player

One question though. Is there, or will there be, a way to hide duplicates that are on the sdcard or would that only be if you can do that in your music app?
[Android Apps and Games] Link9228:
I'm using a Nexus 4 running stock 4.2.2 with Franco's kernel. I have the latest version of SuperSU. I am using the latest beta from the first post (0.9.1).

I'm also getting the "Mount script execution failed (code: 2)" error, like others in this thread. When I hit remount, SuperSU shows a toast informing me that GMusicFS has received root access to an interactive shell. I have attached an image of the resulting popup of the error. It doesn't seem to have much information.

I look forward to using this! Thanks for developing it. I've honestly been hoping a solution would happen eventually. I never thought it'd be in the form of a FUSE filesystem (kudos to you for thinking of it).
[Android Apps and Games] EnigmaCurry:
This is great, I'm glad you made this for Android, but I must say that I was a bit confused at first, because I created a FUSE filesystem for the desktop with this same exact name late last year. (I can't post the URL as I haven't met my threshold: it's at github.com/EnigmaCurry/GMusicFS)

I don't really care, I'll probably just rename my project to avoid confusion, but I think there's a lesson about using Google in here somewhere.

Using it on my Nexus 4 running PA. Really awesome app and I've been looking for something like this for a while. It only works on about half my songs, and the other half says can't play this file type.

Either way, thanks for the effort and I'll be happy to provide any info that might help for future releases.

Edit: Everything is working great now, I just refreshed media store in player pro and everything is working fine.

I'd really like to give this a try, but I'd like to keep my Google Music separate from what's on my SD card so I know when I'm streaming and when I'm not. Don't have unlimited data with my data plan unfortunately. Is this a possibility? Thanks in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] AssailantLF@gmail.com:
Woo! Nexus 7 with the latest ParanoidAndroid is working first try in PowerAMP, after auto-scanning at least. I was thinking about this functionality when I originally tried Google Music. It's a really fine and usable interface, but it just doesn't compare to PowerAMP or n7player at all.

I'm testing it out right now on my gnex running cm10.1

Everything seems to be working fine on PowerAMP! My only wish is if the app would also import playlists!! I would absolutely love that since all my music is divided by playlists.
[Android Apps and Games] chrisonline1991:
So i installed this and tested it out, ended up not liking it so i went back to using the Google music app. Now i can't play any music using the Google music app?? I get "music Playback error. Couldn't play the track you requested" anyone else get this error and figure out how to fix it?

I tried to install the app again and use the cleaup button and the unmount button, but nothing. Now i'm stuck, and can't play music : (

Edit: it helps if i read the documentation....

In this second scenario, music is not playing because GMusicFS mounted the filesystem before the player app was launched. To fix this you must remount the filesystem:

your device boots

you start GMusicFS and it mounts the filesystem

you start your music player

you play a Google Music track and it doesn't play (displays an error)

in GMusicFS you remount the filesystem (can be done via the notification Remount button)

you go back to your music player and it can play Google Music fine (you may have to switch to another track to force closing current track)

That's weird. That would happen if there is a severe problem launching su.

Thanks for reporting. I'll have to test it with Superuser (instead of SuperSU) to see how it goes.

If you have duplicates in this app I may have a fix in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Thank you for the report.

The script is failing because do not have busybox (which provides the cut command).

I will fix it in the next version so busybox is not required.

Can you confirm that you do not have busybox installed ?

[Android Apps and Games] hgoldner:
I ultimately removed the app. I noticed that music was playing at a discovernably slower rate than encoded (i.e., at least a half step to a step lower or more). I don't understand the process, but the encoding/decoding overhead apparently slows down the speed with which the stream is processed (and I set it to a 10 second buffer). Also, I was getting "file not found" messages in Poweramp occasionally, returning to the app, trying to remount the filesystem and immediately getting a reboot.

A very impressive effort --- ideally would permit me to use Poweramp for Google Music library --- but it's not the end of the world if I have to stick with Google Music for cloud music on my M8.

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Just a quick word to say that this app is provided "as is" and is unsupported.

It doesn't work with all kernels which explains reboots on some devices.

This app does tricky and hacky things that may not work well on all devices or unreliably.

It's even a miracle that it sort of works on current Android.

You can use it if it works on your device and find it useful, but most people should use the official Google Music app instead.

There will be no bug fixes as I stopped entirely developping it.

Maybe there will be an update if the next Android version breaks it again and there's an easy fix, but that's all you can expect at this point.

[MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION] music syncing works fine for me with latest 1.0.13. But should Playlist sync work at the moment? I'm asking because GMusicFS syncing of playlists is done within a few seconds and the system library shows only empty playlists after. So there's unfortunately nothing to import for poweramp. I'm lost here. All music itself is playing fine and with correct titles but no playlists available.

Thanks for heads up. I thought it might have been fixed in 1.0.13 as changelog is still 1.0.12. So i should maybe try to restore my deleted gfs poweramp playlists, as they were still working.

Can't believe. Are you sure? Have you synced your playlists recently? My formerly stored playlists also still work, but no sync from scratch is possible.

Olioaglio
[Android Apps and Games] J_M_V_S:
100% positive. I installed latest version from scratch, did the whole thing and there they were! Actually the first times the playlists were empy but if I just left the device with the music player open the playlist were filled. That happen a lot.

What I did now is just PIN all my music and play the whole playlist (thus only pinning what was on the playlist -similar to pin playlist-) and now the playlists just work fine from the beginning.

You can also try with creating m3u for the playlists (there's an option on the program) and see if that solves it. When I tried I had double playlists. You can always untick that to go back.

Hope this helps.
