How to get Android to Show Album Art

Since the T-Mobile G1 does not come with any type of media player syncing software that you install on your desktop, you’re kind of on your own for figuring that out. It turns out the G1 is recognized in Windows Media Player as a USB mass storage device and you can set up automatic syncing of playlists just like you would on Windows Mobile.

Unfortunately, album art is not synced, unless it has already been embedded in the MP3 ID meta tags. The solution is very similar to what we had to do to get HTC’s TouchFLO 3D to display album art. A better way, which maintains syncing capabilities, is found here:

  1. Use WMP to update album info. This would eventually add album art.
  2. Download Mp3tag at
