Hi there,
I'm really new to android so please bear with me...
I have been using the Music app on my new nexus as a general music player for my android. I just noticed an mp3 on there that I didn't want so I held my finger on it and hit delete.
The message that came up said that the only version that would be deleted would be the "side-loaded" version, and the automatic upload to google music would remain.
Now from what I gather google music isn't open to the UK anyway, but I don't wanna use it when it's out, and I certainly don't want an auto upload using up data, but I can't see a setting to turn it off.
Is there one? Or do I need to download winamp or something else to use as my native music player to stop it?
Thanks for any help. It's massively appreciated.
As someone outside of the U.S. I noticed that too however, I connected to Google Music (via tunnel bear) but didn't see any tracks uploaded or listed.

maybe its just a standard warning message in the app for when you delete a track?
You're probably right. I don't think they'd have done a UK only version of music just to adjust that message.
Once google music is open in the UK though (which I assume it will be at some point) all my music is going to start uploading, which is pretty annoying.
I'm in Australia and have been using the music app for a few months now. As far as I know, it does not upload music stored on the phone. There is a program that you can download from the google music website which will allow you to upload your music collection or only specific songs from your computer to the cloud. You can then access the uploaded music files from the app on your phone.

having trouble with adding songs from my library to offline , i click on some songs and it doesnt have a option to add to offline library.
Also where are all the offline songs stored, what if I want to delete my stored songs , how do i do that?
Through the google music app. Select the song or album you want, long press-add instant mix. Then go to the instant mix-menu-make available offline.

Is anyone else having problems sharing a song public on Google+ from the Google Music App?

where are the offline songs stored? interesting question??
Music files are stored here:
Sdcard/Android/data/com.google.Android.music/cache/music
I have been trying to figure a way to make use of this because it would be nice if there were other music apps that could take advantage of these songs but have had no luck.

PowerAmp lets you select which folders to scan for music, so selecting the cache folder for Google Music makes those songs available to PowerAmp. And PowerAmp really is one of the best music apps available. I wish Google would release APIs making our cloud-stored music available to any app that uses them.

Managed to get deezer working as an orange swap able on my nexus. This gives me a premium account and therefore the ability to download tracks for offline listening. Very impressed so far. Music choice seems varied but bear in mind I'm 40 so my tastes might not be everyone's ....
The android app seems a little clunky and I can't see any way to play downloaded tracks in any other app.... has anyone managed this???
To get the swap able working use dolphin browser and convince it you are on a GS2. Will post the string later if anyone is interested ......
I've been very impressed with the deezer service.
I to looked for a way to play offline music in another app. My guess is the deezer app caches the files in an unreadable format. Similar to how google music does. There is an app available now that is able to convert cached files from google music into a readable format and let you play them in another music application. I doubt it would work with deezer. But someone could release something similar.

Struggling to understand how the "my mp3s" bit works. It doesn't seem to find existing music on my phone and half the instructions are in french
it didnt find any of my music.
I have a question for you guys. Can you play songs on the Deezer website? I'm getting really frustrated with how it changes all the time!
At first I couldn't, then it started working for a few weeks. Then it stopped working again for a couple of weeks. And then since then I've been using the Deezer website for unlimited music for ages. At least I think that's how it's been, basically it's been on and off!
Now today I went to play music and it had put me on to a free account and I had to activate my Orange subscription (for like the 3rd time now, does it do this every month or something?!), and now I can't listen to music on the website. It's killing me because I use it allll the time on my laptop!
if it is still actual:
i've been looking into the files deezer stores lately and found out:
they are mp3s!
they just hash them before they save them and then somehow decode them when it's playing.
if someone is interrested to know more about it and understands java quite good let me know and i'll hook you up with the info you need
I'd be interested in finding out how to save the hashed MP3. There are quite a few albums on there I've downloaded and as I swap my phone regular but the limit on freezer mobile devices is two.
Cheers

There was an app called cloud music sniper that would do exactly what you are asking for but i cant seem to find it now.

Hi guys.
Any news on deezer decrypting music?
I also found out they're mp3-s, but can't get a way to dehash them by any possible chance, Anyone had any luck?
Regards
Any one found a way to sync Google Music with the HTC Music Player?
Don't want to install two music players... This should be something HTC needs to think about!
It's not possible. You have to install the Google music app for streaming.

At a guess, google want people to use their app and only their app for a service they are providing for free. I wish it looked better though as it is very basic. If it looked like player pro, that'd be nice

Yes but since HTC makes a phone for "U". This should be in it
beats audio works with everyplayer which is great
If you set some of your music to be available off line then Google Music syncs it to your phone. You can then set the folder it syncs it too to be visible so the music then shows up in all your music apps.
Only problem with this is google sync doesn't embed the album artwork and I also think it renames the files and strips the MP3 tags leaving you with just a bunch of files ....unless this has changed
Si
We can only hope Google will release the music api. Until then there is an unoffical api.

Is there anyway to manage your music on your galaxy Nexus using your PC? Could you use Windows media player or real player in any fashion?

Use the website, https://play.google.com/music/listen
I believe that they're in the works in making a windows application, not sure when that'll be done.
On another note, have they allowed a way for us to upload music from our phones to Google music yet? I don't have a PC and all my music is stored on my phone.

Nope. There isn't Google Music API either.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...on-allow-apps-to-integrate-with-google-music/ saw that the other month though.
Still waiting for a day that Google releases API, MMS, and emoji for Google Voice texting too -.-
Since the Google music app doesn't really work on stock LG roms, does anyone know of any alternatives that let me access my music as well as Google Music all access?
I've been googling around and haven't had much luck but I thought o would ask here as well..

It's a one-time paid app but GMusicFS works well for me. Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bubblesoft.android.gmusicfs
You use it in conjunction with Google music, and you can play tracks from it in other audio players. The Dev is on XDA. The link's for the free trial.
All Access works. I've played stuff in Poweramp before. Most others work, as well. The app also has pinning functionality, by album. Overall a good alternative to the official app, and works well for mixing local and streaming playback. You can append whatever you want to mark the Google music tracks, so you know which will need a data connection or not (eg. FLAC files of your favorite music and streaming the more occasional tracks).
You do have to synchronize when your music library updates, and you can't add to the library or search the entire Google music database.
It's not bad, though, if you like All access as much as I do.
