How to sort songs on a Samsung Galaxy S2

A while ago Scott showed you all how to add music to a Samsung Galaxy S2 and now Im going to show you how you can sort your music by Genre, Composer, Folder or even the Year. This does, in theory make it easier for you to make specialised play lists on your computer and transfer them over (which I will explain in a future guide).

As you may expect this guide starts at the "Music" app so make sure to open up the app so you see a screen something like the one on the let handside. When youre here you need to press the phones "Menu" button which will open up an options menu at the bottom of the screen. From this m enu you will

need to select "Settings" which will on up a screen with 4 more options in a list. You will be able to see options for "Equaliser", "Sound effect", "Music menu" and "Visualisation", from here select "Music menu".

The "Music menu" should give you a list of things, such as
"Albums", "Artists" and "Genres" (see the picture on the right of this paragraph for more of the list) each with a tick box. From here you need to select the options you want to be able to use, personally Id advise "Albums", "Artists" and "Genres" though you may wish to select "Year" if you have a particular year that you love.

When youve selected all the options youd like to use you need to go back to your music player screen then use your finger to scroll across the options at the top. You need to scroll things like "Artist" across and youll soon come to the new options that you added from the "Music menu".

One thing to note before you become hugely comfortable about this. If youve not sorted your music properly (like Scott who took these screenshots) you may notice that some of the Genres, Artists and Albums  (and everything else) can be a bit of a mess to say the least.
