It's bloody good isn't it?<br /><br /> I'd only really been using it as part of Volumio on an RPi but today I was messing with an old phone (HTC Sensation) to try and use it as some sort of music remote/player in the kitchen.<br /><br /> After trying various things I ended up installing CyanogenMod 12.1, <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=be.deadba.ampd&hl=en">aMPD</a> and mounting my music network share.<br /><br /> aMPD is an MPD server for Android. Phone is hooked up to an amp+speakers, plugged in and hidden away.<br /><br /> Controlled via MPDroid on another phone or with any MPC software on a computer.<br /><br /> Seems like a decent way to repurpose an old Android phone currently sitting in a drawer gathering dust.</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41529.1&return_msg=41529.1" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41529.1"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41529_2"></a><div class="message" id="message_41529_2"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: 99% of gargoyles look like (MR_BASTARD)<span class="message_time">12 Jul 2015 16:18</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: ANT_THOMAS <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 12 Jul 2015 16:24"></span></span> <span class="message_count">2 of 11</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41529.2">41529.2</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41529.1#a41529_1" target="_self">41529.1</a></div> <div class="message_body"> Linux?

They did release a Beats version (Sensation XE) which was actually exactly the same spec, just CPU clocked a bit higher and came with some Beats earphones so I imagine the audio side of things is reasonable.<br /><br /> I bet the Galaxy Ace is more than good enough. First of all I'd copy some music to it and just try it.<br /><br /> Edit: If you want to use the Galaxy Ace as the music player but to also control then you'll need a music app rather than use aMPD.<div class="edit_text">EDITED: 13 Jul 2015 08:27 by ANT_THOMAS</div> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41529.9&return_msg=41529.1" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41529.9"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41529_10"></a><div class="message" id="message_41529_10"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: ANT_THOMAS<span class="message_time">13 Jul 2015 08:22</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: graphitone <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 13 Jul 2015 08:53"></span></span> <span class="message_count">10 of 11</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41529.10">41529.10</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41529.1#a41529_8" target="_self">41529.8</a></div> <div class="message_body"> <a href="http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_ace_s5830-review-573p5.php#aq">http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_ace_s5830-review-573p5.php#aq</a></div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41529.10&return_msg=41529.1" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41529.10"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="message_page_footer"> <ul> <li class="right_col"><form accept-charset="utf-8" method="get" action="lmessages.php" target="_self"><input type="hidden" name="webtag" id="webtag" class="bhinputtext" value="DEFAULT" dir="ltr" /><input type="hidden" name="msg" id="msg" class="bhinputtext" value="41529.11" dir="ltr" /><input type="submit" name="submit" id="keep_reading" value="Keep reading…" class="button" /></form></li> </ul> </div> </div> </body>
