[Q] Music Player Autokill - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it just me? The problem is the music player autokills itself without saving its play position, no matter if I use home or back buttons.
I hear music then press pause, home button (should only suspend the app), do something else... some hours later I want to resume playing music, but the player has gone to its initial state.
Am I doing something wrong?

Never had this issue (and I use it all the time) you can try another player like doubletwist or music

Firmware issue
I didn't have this issue with the shipped firmware (JF3). Now I'm on JPM but had this with all Froyo builds.
Player version is 1.1.1.
I don't want another player...

[Q] How to stop mic button from starting media player?

I did several searches, but was unable to find an answer to this. I hope one of you can enlighten me
I recently installed the "Listen" app to listen to podcasts. When i plug in the stock headphones that come with the Captivate and then click the mic button on it, it will bring up & control the media player playback instead of Listen. Is there a way to configure the behavior of this button? Is there a way to keep it from bringing up the Media Player app and instead control the Listen app?
Thanks!
I've been having the same issue. I installed winamp, but I get the same thing.
I installed doubleTwist, and it looks like it properly takes over button so that the stock music player app is no longer launched. Does this mean Listen is not doing it right?

Skipping track with volume buttons

hello,
how does it work? I tried to activate it but it has some strange behavior. It works perfectly with winamp problem is that if I use another player even if winamp app & service are STOPPED if I try to skip track in lock mode it auto starts winamp that starts playing songs along with the current player!
So does it only work with winamp?
Works for me using Google Music player, you just hold the button for a few secs and it skips.
Do you have winamp installed?
No I don't.

Hello, how do you "activate" this feature ? Does it need a particular kernel or ROM ?
Thanks

[Q] Controlling Music From Watch - How?

I can't seem to figure out how to control music playing on my phone from my watch (using Google Music phone app). Is something supposed to pop up when I play music on my phone? I don't see an "app" on the watch that controls this. Note that I'm using a Note 3.
What am I missing?

You get card of current song and if u swipe to left u can advance and swipe to right one more time to stop I believe.

Actually I figured this out. You have to start the playback on the phone first. Then you get a notification that let's you pause / play, Swipe to the left and you next and once more to the left you get previous, but that is the extent of the stock music control. This worked with EVERY music player I have, not just Google stock Music player.
You can also control volume if you get the Wear Volume app - it appears as an additional notification card under the main music notification. And here is also something that is WAY cool - if you download musiXmatch app, you can scroll down and choose to display scrolling LYRICS to the current song!! I can't get BOTH volume AND lyrics to work at the same time however. Note the Volume works with any music app you choose in it's settings. However, musiXmatch only works with Google Play Music player.
There are also some voice controls to start playback. Such as OK Google, play me some music (that will start an "I'm feeling lucky" shuffle). OK Google, Play Some *artist name* . there are some others, but I use those two often.
Not sure if it matters, but this is on an HTC One M7, stock 4.4.2 Sense 6, Google Play Music.
I've just finished developing my Wear Music Controller app to solve this problem for me:

You can play/pause/next/prev/stop/vol-up/vol-down from your watch! Works with all music apps. Let me know what you think!

P9 default music app

Hi,
I have set google play music as my default music player. But when I plug in headphones and hit the button on the remote control the huawei music player starts. Also when I start playing with google player manually, first time I want to pause or skip via remote control the huawei player jumps in. When I then close the huawei player, everything works fine. Is there any fix for that?
Also sometimes when pressing play on the player I don't hear sound as somehow the media volume got muted (without me doing that). Does anyone else have this issue? I'm on EVA-L09C432B170. But had this issues already for some time...
thanks

Stock Music Player randomly starts playing music

Hi!
I wonder if anybody else has encountered this issue and could help me with the strange bug that has started to happen after the latest update (CLT-L29 9.1.0.328).
The stock Music Player starts automatically playing songs at random times and it's really beginning to be annoying. I never even use the stock player, since I stream all my music with Google Play Music which is assigned as the default player. The only MP3 I have on my phone is the song that I use as a wake up.
I was wondering if I could revoke stock player's file premission without messing up the Google's Clock app which I use as an alarm clock?
Thank for your help in advance!
Yes it's fine to do that.. you should go one further and remove it completely along with 100's of other crapware.

Works great on P20 Pro on EMUI 9.1.
