Answer 1

It is not working for me, throwing error illegal state exception in surfaceCreated() method at line mp.setDisplay(holder);

Declare mp.setDisplay(holder) as given below :

@Override
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) 
{  
    mediaPlayer.setDataSource(this,uri);
    mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
    mediaPlayer.prepare(); 
    mp.setDisplay(holder);
    mp.start;
}
