[Q] Lossless audio Flac support for htc sensation?

[vvilliamm]

is there an app that would allow me to play lossless audio like flac? if not.. what format should i convert it to in order to maintain that quality?

or would wave.. be the only option to keep that quality?

PowerAMP is the only player I've encountered that can play FLAC, and the poor UI stops me from using it https://market.android.com/details?id=com.maxmpz.audioplayer&feature=related_apps

Once we're rooted though, I'm told Cyanogenmod builds in FLAC support. Android 3.1 is the first version to officially build it in.

Poor UI ? Really ?
I say PowerAmp is THE music app. Fully customizable EQ, flac support and much, much more. I have used it for over a year now and love it. Never listen to someone that says someone else told them. (quoted poster)

The app andLess plays flac. Free, simple interface, nothing fancy, but works.

Just came across another option listed in a different thread. AudioGalaxy is free, plays flac, and allows streaming all your music from your PC to your phone. I just set it up and it's very cool. Worth checking out.

I had a moment and found the discussion I had read previously regarding FLAC support in Cyanogenmod. It's there, as long as your FLAC files are 16-bit.
