hahaha :D thank guys for response,wait for KLP release first ..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atomix86:
So, your options are keep the Note 2 or sell it for a phone with a half inch smaller screen and no S Pen? No brainer really ;).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt.adid78:
what you mean No brainer really??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krishelnino:
Honestly, wait for the Note 3. Most of the S4 features would probably come to Note 2 . Fingers crossed
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt.adid78:
Thank for good response :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehaerpl:
I use S4 along with Note2, as I work at Samsung's R&D. It's really worth to wait and switch ;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chinaa:
... nothing !
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt.adid78:
Lol dont get mad bro,i just ask huhu
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonatton:
See no reason to switch to S4 myself. Except for the full HD screen, but at the risk of losing a .5'', SPen and awesome 3100mAH battery. There are more features, but most s/w features will come to N2 eventually, so I don't think it's compelling enough to make a switch. If I wanted FHD display that bad, I might have switched to HTC One or something.

Love my Note 2 and sticking with it at least until N3 comes out.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zekurosu:
note 3 or sony togari ... s4? nahhh
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigosj:
Exactly what I did. I replaced my S3 and became a happy owner of a Note 2. You cant compare them. The Note 2 is way better.

The only thing I would buy next is a Note 3.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamR:
If you don't care for the S-pen, you can consider the new LG Optimus G Pro looks like a beast.

I'm waiting for the Note 3 and then I'll decide which one I'm getting next.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt.adid78:
not bad ..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
As above. Samsung already said we would get most of them. Other than that the note 3 in October will be both bigger and better than the s4. Personally I'm done, I've been through so many phones over the last three years and I'm tried of constantly updating. The Note 2 is the first one that I can say I'm truly satisfied with. I'll only be updating every two years from here on in which means note 4 for me.

Sent from the mighty Note II.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonio78370:
I like the looks if the new HTC but as it's far from offering the Note 2 features, I stick with my Note :cool:

Send from my GNote 2 what else...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gielisgj:
I love this rom and almost everything about it, except the freezing. The phone freezes at a rate of 15-20 times a day then having to hard reset twice to get back to normal. This happens using keyboard, facebook, games, settings, and any other app in general. I would like to keep this rom forever but the freezing issues are too much. what do you suggest? fresh wipe of EVERYTHING or anything less elaborate?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Old Man Dave:
I had the same problem with v20. Once I updated to v21 it went away.

Are you running the latest version?

Nice work though!
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
Hope a dark is coming soon too.

Really nice clean and fast player.

A quick jump list with the letters on the side when scrolling would be a nice thing to have too

Also a faster more direct way to select one specific album of an artist with multiple albums without having to jump into the artist and select it from there would be very useful. Like for example the albums expand when selecting the artist name artist view like player pro does it

Re: Now Playing Beta - Holo Music Player

Nice player !
[Android Apps and Games] frederickgramlich:
Love this music player. It's already my default. Haven't had any problems on my Nexus 4 with it so far. If I had 2 critiques, I'd love podcast support built into, even very basic support, and for the app to automatically download higher resolution band photos and album art. I can do it manually so it's not really a problem. But it would be nice. Podcast support would push this thing into another universe of awesome as a music player though.

Also, is there anywhere to donate? I know you're putting forth personal time, and not getting paid for it, and for such a great app I think you should be.
[Android Apps and Games] ThePlasticBling:
If I add my own artist images, I find that the artist page lags very badly when you swipe to a different tab. Especially if it is a high resolution.
[Android Apps and Games] Hardcore69er:
this needs to be on the play store buddy. this is awesome. as it develops and you start adding equalizers and features it can very possibly be one of the more popular apps out there
[Android Apps and Games] BBKoenigsegg:
Beautiful!

It's beautiful. That's truly exactly what it is. I originally wrote about Lockscreen Controls but I found out that they are included already! Easily my default. Keep it going, will purchase when/if you post on Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] chillaxing:
Liking this player so far, it has a feature that i have been long waiting for and that is being able to delete files (from storage not just the playlist) from the 'Recently Added' playlist

I dont know how anyone uses their phone for music but i just download a bunch of music every weekend, put it all onto my phone and then go through listening to it all and deleting what i dont like and keep what I do, i havent got time to sort through all the music i download before it goes onto my phone. I have found it very frustrating that no players allow easy management of music allowing you to quickly delete tracks from storage, freeing up precious space (my 30gb card is always full and i constantly have to rotate music to fit the new stuff on)

Few things though -

When deleting from the playlist the list doesnt update automatically, so you have to come out of the playlist and reload to see the track removed, very annoying as you have to scroll through the list again to find where you left off (bulk delete would be super handy).

It would be really nice to be able to just have a delete button when in the player view, or in the more options button. So you can quickly and very easily just press a button and a track is deleted

Also as mentioned above, being able to multi select in playlists and bulk delete from storage (not just the playlist) would be very handy.

It would be nice to be able to delete tracks when you are in the player view and you swipe to the right to bring across the playlist.

Bulk delete in all lists is needed, hate having to delete one-by-one

Also being able to view by folder and sort by most recently added (and obviously being able to delete folders in that list) would be cool
[Android Apps and Games] akshay7394:
Bug report, possibly?

I have mentioned this to you on G+ but didn't know where you'd prefer to get a bug report so I'm putting it here as well:

I found a few visual bugs on your app, but that could be because of the theme i have installed? Though I don't see how, because the themer hasn't themed your player specifically. Look at the previous-song toggle in both screenshots attached. In the app's now playing screen, I cannot see the previous toggle at all, but when the area is clicked it works as intended. In the notification bar, it's slightly brighter than the other 3 toggles. Just me, or an app-bug?
[Android Apps and Games] gab1972:
I'm loving this new player. I've been using Google Music for a while. I switch between that one and ZPlayer (love the UI of ZPlayer). But I've been attracted to the Holo look lately. Surprisingly, no one had modded Google Music to look more Holo like - similar to the Play Store.

Anyways, this music player is great! Here are my musings...

UI

- the font is nice and light.

- I personally love the light grey and blue Holo feel. Although, a night mode might be good as I sometimes use my phone as a player at night.

- I don't know if this is a cache problem/issue, but when scrolling through a list, say the Albums section, it takes a second for the album art to go from the standard "P" icon to the album art. To me, if I have album art in the IDTag, that should be there first. Not a hindrance though.

- Sticking with the Holo theme, the bar just under the headings Artists, Albums, Etc, should be Holo blue instead of dark grey. Personal preference I guess.

- The Now Playing window is great. Slide to the left to reveal the song list. Slide to the right to get lyrics. Awesome. My *ONLY* complaint on this screen...PLEASE make a favorite button and have it add to the Favorites playlist. I love this feature on the Google Music app and ZPlayer.

- Search button is genius

Music Play

- I think the sound varies on different devices. I don't need a built-in equalizer or DSP Manager as I use Awesome Beats. But if you do make an equalizer, please allow the option to turn it off.

- Widget please!

- Implementation of the now playing controls on the lockscreen are great. Other than that, the only way to switch a song is to go back into the program itself. Without a widget, this is a hassle...or even notification bar controls! [EDIT: actually, I see if you exit the program, notification bar controls appear]

- Another suggestion, when browsing the Songs list, if you click a song it starts playing. While this might be convenient, it's a hassle if you accidentally click something while scrolling. If we could select the song, it opens to show album art, info, etc, then have the options at the bottom to play, add to playlist, queue, etc. This would save inadvertent song plays.

- Import playlists!

I used this all day yesterday and only experienced one FC. So it was probably interference from something else. I didn't experience any glitches or skips. Pretty solid so far.

So, to recap, please add the following:

- a favorite button while song playing [make this available in the app, on the lockscreen control, and notification bar controls]

- one extra step when tapping a song to avoid inadvertent song play

- import playlists feature

- night mode and/or themes

Awesome job btw! I know this took some time and energy and I'm appreciative of your work!! So, by no means do I feel I have a *right* to any of the above features. This is merely feedback from a humble and gracious user.

If this were on the Play Store, I would pay for it.

[EDIT] and now I just figured out why I couldn't see the widget on my homescreen...transparent widgets. Coincidentally, my homescreen background is the same color as the controls. LOL
[Android Apps and Games] :
This music app is incredible :D

I saw one screen and already fell in love with it :D Does anyone know if this will work on the Blade Elite rom?

[Android Apps and Games] vincentistan:
hi! fantastic app, do you think its possible to make songs which dont have album art prettier, the big p is kinda ugly hahaha
[Android Apps and Games] Merri1:
I can confirm both of these bugs too. I'm running Now Playing 6 on 4.2. Like you I also have a theme installed through the 'Theme Chooser' (BOSS Theme) but I don't think this should affect it.

EDIT: Just switched back to the system theme to check this. After applying system theme and rebooting these two bugs are still present.
[Android Apps and Games] gab1972:
^This. Maybe allow longpress of the big P icon and have a menu to search the web or implement album art stored on the device?

[Android Apps and Games] LaserChicken:
May 1 sounds kind of ambitious for a paid version. I really like the look of the app, but it does have a host of issues to be resolved before I'd pay for it.

1. Songs skip or end prematurely.

2. Get frequent force closes, though music does keep playing.

3. Lyric fetching often fails.

4. Song titles disappear from time to time.

5. Not an "issue", but there is no native EQ.

6. Not an "issue", but, no folders.

7. Not an "issue", but, no dark theme.

I'm not a dev, so maybe most of these can be addressed quicker than I realize and maybe some items will have to be "extras"--it just seems like a lot of work to do in 15 or so days.
[Android Apps and Games] bkwilcox100:

2. Will there be a Equalizer soon?

thnx again! :good:

Lots of issues need to be resolved before it goes to the Play Store, and the developer is not releasing betas soon enough for us to see the improvement, I agree that the player UI is beautiful but I don't know about you guys but I won't pay for an app just because is beautiful.

Great design, needs an EQ though, sound is terrible and DSP doesn't help at all :(
[Android Apps and Games] shrome99:
There is one feature almost every Android Music player lacks, and it would make me instantly use this as daily: batch add songs to a Playlist. I'm used to Playlists because of using an iPod touch for about 2 years, and whenever I listen to music for long durations (more than an hour), I make a custom Playlists based on what I want to hear. In the current format, I need to long press a song, click to ADD TO PLAYLIST and then chose the Playlist, repeating this over 50 times for 50 songs is really tedious. A checklist would be lovely.
[Android Apps and Games] xObey:
I just plug my device into the computer, create a folder with all the songs I want in the playlist on the sdcard, highlight everything, right click and click on create new playlist. Then boom a playlist with all the songs I want, The windows created playlists have been compatible with every music player I've used so far (this one, google play music, poweramp, apollo)
[Android Apps and Games] shrome99:
I use iTunes on my PC and doubleTwist to sync iTunes playlists, but using PC for making playlists is really inconvenient, especially when you're not at home or about to go to sleep. Considering the fact that these are the times when I listen to music the most, I can't use your solution :p

Poweramp has a similar feature, but the UI is horrible.

Looking ahead for a stable version and I might use it as my primary music player. been using Player Pro now.
[Android Apps and Games] gab1972:
Here's some future advice...if you want something fixed, you need to provide more information other than what is wrong. For example, you're one of a few who have stated you get FC's when swiping to lyrics. That means that almost everyone else does NOT have this problem. Which means it could be your device or ROM or an app that is causing the FC (like a task killer) or user error or gremlins or Honey BooBoo or a number of other things. So you need to give the dev your device, what ROM you're running, what Android version you have, and (if you have it) a logcat.

Because there are so many devices on so many different networks in so many different countries, it's hard to tell what is causing your problem without more information besides "I have frequent force closes every time I..."

Just some friendly advice to help you get the help you need.
[Android Apps and Games] Jack Underwood:
The option to use any EQ you like will always be better than being limited to a built in EQ. Chances are someone can build a better EQ than i could.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Built in EQs stop things like the fake beats working too, as well as the real SRS
