Modding stock music player ? REQ? - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all ...i hardly ever used any stock music player before ..but after using SGS2 rom and seeing the ''beats '' symbol when i play and the ability to shuffle through song by using the notification bar i was pleased ..but it is flawed ..since it lacks a search function and a few other and i wish some dev is able to modify the stock music app but with some added feature
-have a search function
-have a lyric function
-can play / pause through lockscreen like in cm7
-have a small ''beats logo '' at the back of the list of music / album / artist / playlist
-ability to go through artist - songs - playlist through sliding
-a genre function?
these are just some request i hope devs are able to create in the near future ..bt re they actully possible?

[Q] Music player?

I am running the Ultimate rom, which is silky smooth. My only question is I love the stock music player at the bottom of my lockscreen. How can I put the music player back on the bottom of my lockscreen? I think it's just easy access for me to use. Thanks in advance for any help.
isnt there lockscreen shortcuts option

That will bring up my mp3 player and then have to go into it. Before, it will just bring up the rewind, play and forward button only. I will play around with it now and see what I can do. I just got my note and still haven't taking full advantage of it yet. lol

[Q] Any good Media Controller Widgets?

I have been looking for a media controller widget w/ volume controls specifically for controlling pandora. Just like the media app already on the device, except as a widget. Has anyone come across one yet?

I've been looking for a widget that works somewhat like the Media controller app..
It seems like the Samsung app can control everything from podcast players and Audible to music players like; Spotify, Wimp and Google playMusic.
Is it so hard to make a widget that will do the same?
If i could which for one more thing, it would be that the widget where able to show file name/info, but i understand that every app has it's own way of showing this..
I'm running null_ 17 btw..
why do you guys need a widget for that? gear has a really small display, i prefer to press media controller shortcut app and have it fullscreen than some small widget..

[Q] stock music app in costum roms?

Well, I had enough with my stock rom,
The only thing that stop me from moving on to costume roms is the stock music player.
He is a bit ugly and the sound quality is not that good but he have some great features
Like controlling the volume without opening the screen and the small control menu
In the lock screen witch enable u to do pretty much anything without passing the lock screen.
Both of them r vey useful (like when u in the gym/working out etc..)
So….
1. Is it possible to import it from the stock rom to other costume roms ??
2. Since I think I know the answer (NOOO ) anybody know another music app that can do this stuff?
Thanks…

Do you mean using the volume rocker? I guess that works on every single app

I believe you mean the notification widget? Can't recall the controls being on the lockscreen in stock.. Most apps these days have that function too. 4.2+ ROMs do put your music controls on the lockscreen though! In in CM based ROMs you can also skip to the next song by holding the VOL+ button while the screen is off.
I personally use Google Play Music, and it has all the functions I need. (except for a sleep timer...)
Hope this helps!
I doubt it since alternatives from poweramp to fusion music player all annihilate with no competition the stock music app...

i didn't know that in 4.2+ ROMs all this options are built in so...
i guess all that is left for me is to choose costume karnel and costume rom and flash

[Q] Skip track with volume buttons while screen OFF only for my third party music app

Hi all,
Would like to know if someone know how to make this possible :
I have 2 music apps on my galaxy S3 LTE running TGP ROM v18.10 (stock-based ROM android 4.3). I want to install an app or anything else that allows me to skip track with volume buttons while screen is OFF ONLY FOR my 3rd party app (Deezer) AND NOT for the sammy stock music app.
I tried many diffrent ways like xposed modules but with each apps it doesn't work or it skips songs on both 2 apps at the same time which make me also display the music contol widgetof the sammy app on the lockscreen.
Any help would be highly appreciated !
Thread closed at OP request.

Media utilities cannot get track name

I cannot get track name display on either media utilities widget or zooper widget, any expert here?
Media Utilities support/functionality has been flaky as it hasnt been updated in a year or so. If you want full functionality of Media utilities you will have to use the launcher Themer. As that seems to be the devs focus.
If you insist on using MU then: Notification access, direct control and alternative data collection must all be active in order for Track, Artist, and Album text to appear in Zooper widgets. However, Cover Art does not work unless alternative data collection is disabled.

Actually its fully working it just takes a min, after you set the settings make sure the album art code is set in Zooper, force update, an reset phone. Album art works on every ROM, an widget I have used since I did that.
