    I thought that maybe the tags were wrong, listing "Duran Duran" and "Joy Division" as "duran duran" and "joy division," but no, the tags are correct, listing capital letters where they are supposed to be, in both the Album Artist and regular Artist fields. Yet the Music app lists them as all lower case letters.

    Any fix for this?

    Kris, I imagine many people don't have this problem. I am hoping to hear from those who do (or have had) the problem and/or have suggestions on how to fix it.

    I thought I had found a work-around, as renaming "David Bowie" to "Bowie" got me the capitalized "Bowie" in the player, but when I then switched back to David Bowie, I got "david bowie" in the player. So weird!

    By the way, these are the only artists this happens with on my BB Classic Music player:

    Tears for fears
    Joy Division
    New Order
    ‎The Human League
    Duran Duran
    David Bowie

    Again, any help would be appreciated.

    I've had a few oddities like that, the only way I could fix it was to delete the songs, reboot, then wait a few hours for the index to update, and re-add them.

    Also, great taste in music!

    Did you re-add the same files or did you re-rip and re-tag before re-loading them on your phone?

    And can you please say a bit more about the index updating?

    Also, great taste in music!

    In my case, I added the same files back. Most of my music files are FLAC ripped from CD so the tags are fairly accurate, but there were a few misspellings or tracks that weren't on a domestic release of an album that I had to fix.

    The indexing is the way that the music app keeps track of the files it has available to play. By waiting a few hours after deleting the original songs I made sure that the device 'saw' the fact that the songs were gone and so when they were added back they were considered 'new'.

    Many thanks for the explanation and the tip! Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. The artist names still come up in all lower case letters.

    Try removing your memory card and then turning off the device. Wait 20 seconds, then reboot. When the phone turned on, wait some time then insert your memory card again.

    Thank you!

    I have done all but the last step. By "some time" at the end how long do you suggest?

    Just let the phone settle down after the restart. Maybe just for a minute or so.

    Ugh. Same problem still. I did notice that it read the card veeery quickly. Like less than 30 seconds. So maybe the phone memory hadn't reset?

    Try the hard reset after removing your SD Card. Press and hold the volume up AND down. Ignore the toast that tells you just took a screen capture. Then, it will automatically reset itself.
