FOLDER
PLAYER

Freeware MP3 player for your Java Phone

You have a phone = you have MP3 player!

Features:
  • Lighweight and Fast
  • Plays music in selected (sub)folders
  • Plays thousands of files
  • Supports custom fonts for mp3 tags
Today, with high capacity MicroSDHC cards, it is entirely possible to carry your complete music collection in your cell phone.
Unfortunately, some devices have poor built-in software, which doesn't allow you to listen to all songs you have, solving your carrier's problems (like attaching you to their services) instead of solving yours - enjoy your music library.

Folder Player is an attempt to reclaim your cell phone and your music.

This is early version of the software. It works on my phone (Samsung Exclaim), but may not work on others. Please let me know if you were able to run it on your phone (tell me model and your experiences). Also, I welcome recommendations, bug reports, and other comments about your experiences!

IMPORTANT: In order for the player to work, you need to grant access permissions to you phone's multimedia and file system. Unfortunately, different cellular carriers impose different limitation to unsigned applications. You may need to tweak your phone AND you need to set appropriate permissions for Folder Player, otherwise player wont work or you sight will be abused by annoying popups asking for such permissions.

Other problems:

Support for playlists, mp4?
Need this? Let me know.

If your phone displays underscores instead of extended ASCII letters in file names:
Unfortunately, this means that your phone requires your file names to be in unicode format. In this case I suggest to rename your files using english letters or use UTF8 for file names.
