Amazon, Tidal and now Apple support Dolby Atmos (along with a lossless offer)! Spotify announced Spotify HiFi. Let's hope it will also support Atmos. And without any price increase (follow my gaze 👀)   I really love the Spotify Connect feature that allows me to stream on my Yamaha AV Receiver. I wish I could take full benefits from my 192KHz/24bits 7.1 Atmos setup! My Android smartphone also supports Dolby Atmos... But not sure a Spatial Audio-like feature can easily be developed on Android as it requires dedicated gyroscope/Accelerometer inside the headphones. ... View more

I saw yesterday that an update has been published including a fix for SDcard support on Android 4.4. No more issues for me since then ! ... View more

Nevertheless, the symptoms on my GNote2 is not as balck&white as you seem to describe it regarding Android 4.4... As you can see on the screenshot attached, I've tons of folders and files stored by Spotify on my extSD ! 🙂 ... View more

And I do understand that... I may found an easier (temporary) solution. Wipe Spotify data, launch it without any external SD so Spotify store files in the internal memory then reinsert the SD card. ... View more

And now, each time I launch Spotify, I have the welcome page and I need to re-login before accessing the app... 😕 ... View more

I've never heard about that before... Thanks for sharing this article as it might be a huge problems for tons of developers.   However, what's strange is I can normally access my external SD with ES Explorer or ADB and I can copy, push and create folders and files on my external storage. Also, I am currently developing an Android app that is only dealing with external SD card for app storage using the permissions READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE without any problem on my device, running 4.3 or 4.4.   That is why I am suspecting an error on the Spotify-side... Besides, I saw the same error on a Samsung official 4.3 ROM a few days ago (see my first post).   Finally, using DDMS, I have some errors coming from the Spotify client but nothing seems to be directly related to my issue (the only exception is a HTTPS certificate exception, see below)   02-16 10:57:33.600: W/System.err(17953): javax.net.ssl.SSLException: hostname in certificate didn't match: <market.spotify.com> != <api.tunigo.com> OR <api.tunigo.com> 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier.verify(AbstractVerifier.java:185) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.conn.ssl.BrowserCompatHostnameVerifier.verify(BrowserCompatHostnameVerifier.java:54) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier.verify(AbstractVerifier.java:114) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier.verify(AbstractVerifier.java:95) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.conn.ssl.SSLSocketFactory.createSocket(SSLSocketFactory.java:388) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.impl.conn.DefaultClientConnectionOperator.openConnection(DefaultClientConnectionOperator.java:165) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.impl.conn.AbstractPoolEntry.open(AbstractPoolEntry.java:164) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.impl.conn.AbstractPooledConnAdapter.open(AbstractPooledConnAdapter.java:119) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRequestDirector.execute(DefaultRequestDirector.java:360) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.impl.client.AbstractHttpClient.execute(AbstractHttpClient.java:555) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at org.apache.http.impl.client.AbstractHttpClient.execute(AbstractHttpClient.java:487) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at com.b.a.a.c.run(SourceFile:54) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:422) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:237) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1112) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:587) 02-16 10:57:33.605: W/System.err(17953): at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:841) ...

I've never heard of that issue and actually never experienced it. Besides I've some apps installed on the SD card or apps storing obb or other files on my SD like the camera app and no issue so far. I'm running a custom 4.4 CM 11 based Rom. BTW I'm a Spotify Android beta tester. Antoine. ... View more

Hi, OK I've a SanDisk 32Gb class 10/UHS-1 microSD. I've backed up all my data, run a couple of disk integrity tests without errors. Then I reformatted the card directly on my device running the legacy Android formatting tool. I've no issue with any app dealing with external SD card except from Spotify. I still get the error message but I see the Spotify storage folders normally using ES Explorer. It is really seems that the issue is on the Spotify client side. Any other test I can run to be sure? Or any logs I could retrieve from Spotify to check potential errors? Thanks Antoine Galaxy Note II GT-7100 Spotify v. 0.7.6.344 ... View more

A webapp version of Spotify would be great even if the webapp version doesn't support all the features of the desktop client. This would be useful when you want to use your Spotify on someone else's computer without the need of installing an standalone application. Alternatively, you could develop a Native Client for Chrome that would run directly inside the browser. ... View more
