Anyone here a part of it? I'm actually loving it right now. The fact that I don't really need to worry about sdcard space saves me. I can just stream my music to my phone since I always have an excellent wifi/4g signal. It can automatically copy your itunes/windows media/etc.. playlists and settings and this is a plus. What do you guys think?
I also love the service, but the app itself could use some work. it is a bit wonky.
Biggest pain was getting my 50gb music collection uploaded. Glaring issue is that I need to organize my music better.
Yeah I have It, but I think the app needs an overhaul.

I have been on Google Music Beta for about 2 months. The only problem is that it would not sync my iTunes acct. I contacted Google and they asked me to send the crash log (don't know why I didn't just send that with the initial email) but they have not yet gotten back to me. I have just about given up on Google Support as I have sent them 4 emails in the last month. It would be perfect if I could get this to work on the E3D.
I had the same issue but when I cleared data it began to work flawlessly.

I've been using it as well, but noticed that the Music Manager can be quite finicky with the uploads. There's definitely been many songs that haven't uploaded for no apparent reason.
also, i wish we could upload lossless (flac) and not have it converted to mp3.
other than that, i've been pretty happy with it.

I agree, i love the concept but the app could really use some work. I really like the native music player on the phone.
Also the album art is a joke. I now have Pitbull as the default album art for everything.

No it doesn't let you send out invites....you just gotta wait to get yours...it took me like two months and I know some people who got it in two weeks ...and they requested their invite much later than me.....
I like Google music but the Android app could use some work...better app optimization when scrolling through tracks, albums or artists.....right now it just lags when you scroll.....Also for some reason the tracks in some of my albums do not get sorted by lowest track number to highest .....
Other than that its great.
it's nice and it's growing on me, but here are my quirks
You aren't able to download your music. As far as I know this can only be done on your phone. It's nice that it's in the 'cloud'; however, I still need to maintain a copy on my computer if I need to transfer it to some other device or media that doesn't have the ability to connect to GMusic.
Better online sound quality. Over the phone it seems to sound much better than through a web browser on my pc.

One thing I noticed is that even if I have "Sync music" unchecked in my Accounts & Sync settings, the Google Music service will sometimes still start itself up without me ever opening the app. Happens about half the time I do a reboot.
I'm using the service as well and I really like it. On my original evo I had a issue with it constantly disconnecting from my gmail account. Now with the 3D I haven't seen that problem yet

Sup guys, quick question, does anyone have Google music up and running completely on R.G. 2.1 or Virtuous Unity Sense ? I have the music manager set up on my laptop, I downloaded the app from the market,but when I go to Menu/settings/Sync, there is no option to sync music or is this an option at all ? I hope that I'm posting this in the right forum, thanks in advance for your help....
Thing I hate is sometimes for no reason the music manager will give me errors for music i'm trying to upload. Then a few days later I look at it when im about to upload something else and all of the errors that were there are gone and the songs have actually downloaded. That and the fact that sometimes it duplicates music.
Does anyone know where I can find the latest version of Music Junk? Mine just keeps saying "Network Error" and all the searches I have done are really old posts. Can someone help me please???
Looks like it might be gone for good since the Facebook and Twitter page has been pulled....
I've been wondering the same, but I guess it really is finally gone for good... which blows because it was the best app for downloading music, hands down.
After posting my last, I installed Music Junk 4.3 on my phone again and opened it immediately to try it out again. I searched for music and it actually worked. I downloaded a couple of songs and everything, but then it stopped working after trying another search. Not sure what this means, but hopefully something positive...
Can you post a link for 4.3? I couldn't find it anywhere. I found other versions, but not that one. Pretty Please?
I have this problem with 4.3 I also tried to uninstall & reinstall. I tried 4.2 as well with no luck. This is typical of them when they change versions, but I haven't seen a 4.4 version out there...

I did last night, randomly... decided to install it again and try it. The first search worked and I was able to download several songs. After that, no such luck. I've been getting network error ever since.
I remember long time back (HTC hero days) music junk used to have some files, that used to pull data from these music websites, that used to get outdated. hence, the new versions would have the new files and we would not get the network errors...
If we can get a developer to look into some recent music junk versions and look into the changes made, we might be able to get it working again.

The thing is that music junk was the only app that showed the bitrate of each song. And it worked! The quality of songs was amazing.
The thing is that there is a very easy fix for this Network error... We just need a developer to look into it.

I think it's a done deal, guys. Anytime the servers went offline & we waited on a new version,I was still able to download on mj ver3.0.that is the only version that would work all the time even when the newer current ones would come network error. Needless to say, 3 isn't working anymore.
No way 4.3 was working for me this month now i get network error why i love this app. Any one know if there is an update like 4.4 or am alternative app out there?
I'm using v 3.0.4, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. The trick is i have to press search a few times, i get the "network error'' the first tries but eventually it loads the search page. I get the error far more times when im using the network than through wi fi. But once it goes through i click on the song and downloads on the first try.

I want to resurrect this thread. I'm the one who posted the issue in the thread above, but I agree this deserves its own thread.
I've emailed back and forth to Pandora support, and they wash their hands of it, and told me to talk to LG. I'm of the opinion that if there were no native Wear support for Pandora, how does it work in the first place? It displays album art and allows you to pause, play and skip. The Pandora support monkey says they don't support Wear, period.
Sorry for any confusion, but as I mentioned before, we do not support Wear functionality. The card may be appearing due to the way LG identifies music playing on your phone. Since we have not yet created an implementation for Android Wear, there isn't anything we can change to fix this.
Again, I'd recommend reaching out to LG about this issue to see if there is anything they can do about the music card on their end.
Let me know how that conversation goes.

Wear simply pulls the image, text, and buttons from a notification. In the case of media playback, it pulls that functionality from the same place your lockscreen does to display the art and pause/next functionality. Music apps don't need to do anything to work with Wear. I feel like what they're saying is true... Because I've encountered this bug on a few other apps. I think it's a bug in the Wear software itself (or just bad code on the developer's part). I figured it might have something to do with media apps not releasing themselves from the system correctly so Wear doesn't realize the app has stopped and no longer wants to display track info.
You can change watch face or open Amazon prime music and Swype off to get rid of it. prime works as it should.

While it may be a case of evolving functionality, I think it's chickenshark of Pandora to simply dish it off on LG or Google. I would hope that they'd take some ownership in the matter, and contact LG themselves to see what might be done, or offer some workaround. They just told me to go pound sand.

Oh, that definitely sounds like Pandora to me. They're incredibly lazy. Look how many years it's taken them just to get playback controls in the ongoing notification.
Found a workaround in the other thread on this topic. If you press Pause on the Wear card, you can then swipe right to dismiss it.

Hi,
I would like to present my first Xposed Mod. I'm uploading it in the hope it's useful to someone as well as me
Basically all it does is raise the volume when Waze is talking, and then lower it when it's done. This is really only useful if, like me, you use your phone to also play music at the same time (in my case, I use PowerAmp) where I've found the output of PowerAmp significantly dominates the voice that Waze emits. This is designed to fix that.
Please do let me know if any comments/feedback. The project is also open source: https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-waze
Thanks!

It boosts it compares to other applications that are playing music. It raises the volume to 100% when Waze says something, then lowers it back to normal when it is done.
If you are playing it through loudspeaker I imagine this won't be a problem for you, but when you connect to to your car via a headphone cable then it's a problem for me (I don't know about others).
Does it clarify it?
Is it possible to create a mod where Waze does not automatically close itself when left in the background? I am aware this is intentional by Waze when there is no GPS movement and in the app is left in the background. The problem is, where I live is plagued with standstill traffic jams and I prefer to switch off my screen, allowing the voice guidance to do the work. The next thing I realise, Waze has already turned itself off and I had been driving way off-course without even realizing it.
This has been my number one gripe with Waze - would be absolutely great if you could implement this in your module. No pressure, but just a suggestion

I set the minimum target version to 19 (Android 4.4) because that's what I was running at the time. Here's an APK that has it set to 17 (Android 4.2/4.2.2), so it should work on your phone.
Please let me know if it does, and I can provide this for general release.

I'm on an Xperia Z1 - it's rather unlikely that it is killed by Android with the lean amount of background services I had.
But, I think I have the answer. I noticed that I greenified Waze, so I'm likely sure that is the culprit, but I appreciate your time taken into helping me look into it.
It is possible using this below 4.2.2? I have 4.1.2 and using Waze same like you, navi with a music from tune in or Google music.

@jayshah
Hey man, wanted to inform you this earlier regarding the issue I had with Waze automatically closing - and the real reason was that it wasn't getting a GPS lock. Now it's not the phone but rather that in the city, there are many overhead highways which block the GPS signal, and we do have long traffic jams and intersections under them which naturally would cause Waze to close after a period of time.
If it is possible, could you include an option for Waze to not close itself? The intention here is once that I travel to open skies I can then continue to contributing without needing to check on my phone.
I was wondering if it was possible to add a setting for the volume adjustment. While this app works for me, it makes waze too loud in comparison to the music. Rather than raising volume to max, I'd rather play with it and find an appropriate level.
Great mod. Is there a way to get this to work with Google maps navigation instead of Waze?
I was so excited when I saw this earlier today!
Sadly, I think the real issue is just the volume output of my phone. I already have it set to max to listen in the car, and all this does is drop it down to 15% when the Waze announcement is over. :crying:
I'll definitely keep an eye on your module, though, to see what other goodies you might come up with.
Support on android 5.1?
Hello,
I have a car stereo "Avin Avant-2" which runs on Android 4.1.1.
I use Waze, but the sound is much too low to understand the information.
I discovered your application, but I do not know how it works because I have no icon on the screen.
I installed the version "4.1.2-XposedWaze" because it is the only one that wants to settle on my car radio.
Can you help me use it?
Thank you

I'm only guessing its a direct result of HTC messing with what are normally standard Android apps, such as the camera (and making them proprietary).
HTC's customizations are certainly polarizing, some hate them, some love them. While I personally like most of HTC's changes; on the other hand you have to expect they will break something along the way.
