Can anyone tell me a good music player? Doesn't need to be fancy. It's just the stock one really gives me the shits. If I feel like playing a specific song it clobbers the rest of the playlist so I have to screw around to get it all playing again. I just want non retarded jumping to a track. Anything beyond that is a bonus.

Obligatory PowerAmp plug.

So I just got a notice for Swype Beta wanting to update but when I download it, it says "Please click to begin", but doing that does nothing. Anyone else having issues?

Took a while for it to do anything for me, just be patient and it should do something.

Any idea what it actually updates?

Is there a way to see all the apps that are on sale right now?

And do people have specific recommendations?

I don't really know how to find good apps. All the various "top" lists on the play store always seem to be cartoony games that I'm not really interested in.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.tsapps.appsales&hl=en

Been using this for a couple of months, it's pretty decent.

Is there an SMS app that will allow me to keep my SMS in conversation view but will show a single SMS if I select it?

I hate the inbox mode in some apps and when I show people my messages, I'd rather they only saw the one in want them to!

I am currently using chompSMS as was mentioned in the thread earlier and really like it. Am I missing a setting somewhere or will I need to use an alternative?

E: if it helps, I am on a rooted gnex (UK style)

Any suggestions for a bit torrent client? I've scanned the thread but couldn't find any.

tTorrent is pretty good for me.

I have my work shifts in my calendar and rather than forgetting to set my alarm I'd like an automated alarm based on any Google Calendar events called "work".

Is such a thing possible?

E: I have tasker if that helps

Not sure if it was a feature of Touchwiz or not, but I used to love how my SGS3 had app shortcuts show up in the notification screen whenever headphones were plugged in. Now that I just flashed to CM10 I'm missing this feature. Does anyone have a solution?

Use poweramp! :)

Wait, how does a music player help with conditionally putting app shortcuts in the notification shade? I can't think of an app that replicates this offhand actually, as yes that was a part of TouchWiz.

I forgot how to read, my bad.

Wait til you swipe out the side menu and oops not far enough, you just swipe deleted a track from your playlist.

Then you look for the undo popup like in gmail. There isn't one

Christ, this is the worst thing about Play Music for me. Drives me insane.

Yes really. That's like saying a razor scooter is the same as a 747 because they both take people from point A to point B.

In other news, holy hell Facebook made it a pain in the rear end to view your timeline in order. It's now buried under the right hand tab half way down and as far as I can tell it can't be set as a default.

Menu - edit favorites (towards the bottom) - add most recent - drag most recent up the order

Can't set as default but at least it's at the top of the right tab now.

My facebook app just had an update and now I can't find how to sort my newsfeed by most recent. Did they just flat out remove that option all together?

I wish I could get everyone to switch over to g+

I posted how just up the page :)

Or rather I posted how to make it more easily accessible

Is it just me or is it throwing up a lot of "something went wrong" errors for anyone else?
