[MOD] MusicMod 1.6 by Eliot Stocker for Droid X

[Fabolous]

This is by far the most awesome, modified default music Android player, created by Eliot Stocker.

This is version 1.6, which is an older version, but his newest that supports Eclair 2.1 (all the newer ones require Froyo).

Here are the features:

Gesture Contol
4 Different Sized widgets
including a full 4×4 widget with shuffle and repeate buttons
Redesigned Now Playing Screen
Wallpaper showing behind app when Music playing (including Live wallpaper)
Options for Fullscreen and gesture control in Now Playing screen

Installation Instructions

-Download Music.apk (attached to this post at bottom)
-First, we need to backup the original music app

su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
mv /system/app/Music.apk /system/app/Music.bak

-Then, we install Music Mod

cp /sdcard/Music.apk /system/app
sync
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
reboot

-And you're all done. Check out the new widgets (screenshots below)!

Man I'm so in love with this app. Really makes the stock music app better. I just wish it would work with cyanogenmod 's standby feature.

There's a non-root version on the market I believe. lol I thought this thread was talking about that I guess it's talking about the one I'm using now lol. but yes there is a non-root version in the market with the same name.

That's Froyo only. It doesn't show up for the DX as it runs 2.1

Got it and installed easily. Very nice, better than stock.

Doing this on root explorer and when I hit install to load the new apk it says installation failed. Any help?

Edit: got it to work manually . . . guess I just don't know how to work root explorer yet

Could you tell me the steps you took to get this to work?

I went to system/app and renamed Music.apk to Music.bak
then I went to sdcard/download and moved Music.apk to system/app
once in there I clicked install, it goes through the process and then says not installed.

If you are using root explorer, then once you get to the point that you have copied the new music.apk into system/app, then you need to change the permissions to match the rest of the applications. Reboot and then it will work.

However, when I try to open it, it immediately closes. Not sure if it's because i'm using froyo?

Think he'll ever incorporate the volume rocker/camera button controls in the root version?
