maxmp Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 NOTE: this Beta Preview is a preview-quality software to trial the new user-interface, it is not ready for day-to-day usage. It does not yet have all of the features of the previous Alpha release. Some functionality is not ready yet, missing, or incomplete, such as: Most library categories are not implemented as yet (you can only use All Songs, Folders, or Albums) No List Options in Library screens List/track/preset operations like deletion, adding to playlists, etc not yet supported No landscape or tablet-specific layouts No custom lockscreen (please turn off all PA lockscreen features if you find music stops when the screen goes to sleep) These features will be re-added into forthcoming beta releases over the next few weeks. Expect crashes and other strange things:) All the debug/checking code is still there. Please make sure you backed up your previous installation, as it's not easily possible to revert to previous versions due to database format change. Poweramp-beta-preview-build-790-uni.apk Updated Notes: If you are downloading directly on a mobile, make sure your browser does not alter the filename - the filename extension must be ".apk" to work. Install the file using a file explorer app rather than trying to run it from your browser. If you have any crashing issues, try deleting the app cache and data, or do a complete uninstall of the old version and then try the new version as a fresh install. (Remember to backup before you do so). From this release onward, Poweramp v3 will only run on Android 5.0 and above. If you have KitKat or earlier, the old v2 release will remain available for legacy devices.[Admin Reminder: Development timings are very hard to predict, so timescales can vary. Repeated ETA requests won't help speed up the process, and may even get your post removed as clutter] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poweramp-beta-preview-build-790-uni.apk Could you possibly release an APK with a different package name, to allow it to be installed alongside the current Poweramp?

maxmp Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 Regarding release schedule - May is set as month for a feature-complete Beta release (with the all missing parts finished), and the end of May/beginning of June'18 is the final v3 release planned period. It depends on bugs and specific device issues.

It's possible, though, there are immediate issues with provider names collisions and shared app user. Also, it won't be possible to unlock such app (all the license info derived from v2.0 versions).

Bobeca Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 It doesn't start on Samsung S7 with the latest stock ROM. I get a massage 'Poweranp has stopped working' right after the main screen shows. PS. This is after I have upgraded from the alpha version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silversmith Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Unfortunately, there seems be no sound on my V30 regardless of any alterations I make to the settings, I will keep looking for a solution and see if I can fix it. It looks like I will just have to wait a bit longer until the beta gets closer to completion. Thank you Max for all of your hard work you put into this app, I know it must not be easy working on this all by yourself and with everyone putting pressure on you to release the update as soon as possible.

It's interesting, I have V30 on 7.1.2 (build number N2G47H) - it works perfectly with all 4 output types, I even specifically polished (old) Hi-Res output on it (though, that will stop to work on Android 8). Does usual output (Open SL non-HD or Audiotrack) work for you? Ah, OK:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
