I am a relatively new user to this phone, and so I have been trying to get my music files (mp3 format) onto my phone.I have bought a new 32GB sd card to load them on, and some files will play, but most state they can't play.I have tried a transfer using file copying, and also used MediaGo, but I still get similar results.The mp3 files play correctly on my computer (Windows Media Player) and on my iPOD, so I think the files should be ok.Are there specific sampling bit rates needed for the Xperia?Further to this thread, I have now ripped some original cd's in various formats and bit rates (Mp3 to WAV), and it makes little difference to their ability to play. Some do, but mostly they don't. I can't find any common factor.
Finally getting somewhere .... I think there is a problem with the new 32Gb MicroSD. Its rated class 10, so its maybe faulty or too fast???I replaced the sd with the one that came with the phone, which is 2Gb (no class stated), and everything plays fine with this.
I know there is media go that you use to put music on your phone, but you need xp service pack 3 or later. I must have an older xp version. Is there any other way I can transfer music files to the phone?
I have the xperia mini 10 pro, i have tried everthing thats been suggested and downloaded media go but no matter wot music i put on my phone it comes up saying 'file format not supported' what does thus mean and wot file format is needed.
sent an off market file to my phone via bluetooth which did not install because i had not unchecked the 'install off market' applications.after that i now cant find the files location to install it.
Just got my xperia play (very nice by the way), and it alleges to have support for WMA files for music, however, when I try and copy these over I get the message saying the file needs to be converted otherwise it won't play ... is that correct? My last SE phone worked fine for WMA ....
Trying to get moto cast to work I can see pictures, videos and music...It will not play music files just starts like it would then get the constant blue circle that just goes around and around and song never comes on.
I really like the visualization with the standard player but it won't recognize Google play music files even when stored on my device. Is there a way to get it to "see" them?
I am usng a BlackberryBold 9700, (AT&T).I imported all the contacts from my previous backup.I copied an mp3 file from my PC to the device memory. Set this mp3 file as the ring tone to all the profiles. I did not set any custom ringtone to any individual contact.But when i recieve a call, both my custom ring tone and the 'Ringer_ClassicPhone' are playing together.Also, a file 'Ringer_ClassicPhone.mp3' is being created automatically a'/Device memory/home/user/ringtones/Ringer_ClassicPhone.mp3'Everytime I recieve a call... i get two hear two sounds... it very annoying...
Since the update my music player randomly stops and says it can't play files that could be previously played? Also every time I press the home screen Google Play store shows up.
When you play music using bluetooth there is a lag or skipping in music. Like 1 sec. skipping in every 1-3 minutes or sometimes 30secs - up. I think the problem is the android lollipop. I used to connect my z5 in jbl xtreme. my huawei telpad running android kitkat has no problem in playing music using bluetooth. But my z5 and my wife's asus selfie running android lollilop there is a lag or skipping problem.
Does anybody know how i would install a .APK file.. downloaded it earlier.. but i dont know where to save it to on my phones memory card, or how to install it
I have just purchased a shiny new Xperia PLAY a week ago, it came with a 8GB microSD card and within a few days I filled the card up. So, I thought I would get a bigger card and bought a 16GB microSD card as I would like to put more games and alot of my music on it as well
How would I go about transferring or copying all the files that are on the 8GB card to my 16GB card without losing any downloaded data i.e large game files and game saves? CAN THIS BE DONE? As I am new to Android, any step by step advice would be great by the way!
One thing I did try was copying all the data on the 8GB card to a folder on my PC (whilst enabling the 'view all hidden files and folders' option in XP) and copied the folder contents to the new 16GB card (pre formatted to FAT32). I put the new card in the phone but cannot access the games without having to re-download the GBs of data needed and all my games progress has disappeared along with a few games and some needed game data. e.g NFS Hot Pursuit starts but will not play!
I took some videos last night when I went to a concert. My internal memory was getting full so it recommended moving them to the SD card which I did. Now I can't view the files and it won't play in any different video applications that I have downloaded. I reformatted the sd card after backing it up and still nothing! Why is this when I can see the files on my phone. They are there but won't play. I haven't done anything wrong! I literally am frustrated and want my videos back.
I bought New Xperia Mini. It is quite good. but I am facing a problem regrding gallery. I can't access/find the icons or files in the gallery. It showing blank.
When I installed the software for the first time, it asked to me to delete PC Companion data from the memory card to save space, but I didn't. Now I need more space, but I can't find that 'feature' no more, I tried to unistall and reinstall the software but this time no message appeared. What should I do to remove those files?
Have quite a lot of music downloaded from play now which i listen to quite a lot tried to play my music today and its telling me i have insufficiant rights to play it!
It wont play all my videos, just a few of them. All my videos are MP4 and 3GP-files, so I wonder what may be wrong with the others...size, frame (or something)? It's weird because it's playing files about 6 000 kb, but not 300 kb. Where's the logistic?
OS: Android 2.1 (Had been already installed when i bought X10 mini).
When I am trying to play any mp4 videos in a default player, appears a error "Can not play video." I tried to intall other players from market, but nothing, same problem. Also, its not a problem with video files, because I asked my friend to try playing the same mp4 videos which my X10 Mini can't play and he had no problems with them... All videos played correctly in a default player.
Also I tried to reinstall OS, but problem still exists.
My PC is not detecting USB. I am unable to charge phone using USB, but I cant transfer files....Previously I was able to transfer files...I changed my phone settings...I don remember the settings I changed...aft the change only i cant transfer files...
I've tried "File Manager" that comes with PC companion but whenever I click "Start" it just opens an explorer windows with the following path "C:Program FilesSony EricssonSony Ericsson PC Companion" ... and I never see my phone mapped as drive in windows?
I Recently updated my phone to ICS. After updating i decided to do backup and restore.verything looks great but I can't see the apps installed on my SD card. How can i restore the apps form my SD card? My SD card shows a huge amount of unallocated space. Everything is detailed like pictures, apps, music and all.. but there is some missing space on it.
I just download some applications from the Market then suddenly got warning phone storage getting low. So is there anyway to transfer the files from phone storage to SD storage?
