Hi
I am using Locker Master and wated to add the music widget (using Walkman player) to the lock screen while music is playing. Unable to find a way to do that.
I also disabled Locker Master and tried to add the widget to the Xperia Lock screen, but it didn't show up in the list of widgets that could be added.
So, how do I add a simple music control to the lock screen? I remember being able to have this on my HTC Legend which was running GingerBread. Things should have gotten simpler with progress, but I seem to be struggling to do seemingly simple stuff with this version of Android (4.4.4).
Thanks in advance.

If all you want is the widget when music is actually playing, then just use the default Sony lockscreen - the widget appears automatically when playing media from Sony apps and others. Swipe right to get back to the clock. Swipe down to see a larger version (with lockscreen widgets enabled). Long press to see scrub control. That's about it.

Hello am running a stock rom is there anyway to get music control or widget on the lockscreen Thank you
There are many custom lock screens in the play store.around 60p will let you buy one that you can define your own buttons on.
Go to Market... Search Lockscreen
Or try the Player Power amp

I have a working ICS from on my captivate (not sure which I can send screenshots) with built in google music lock screen controls. Problem is that while it shows the album art, it replaces my wallpaper with plain black and it looks really terrible. I'm wondering if anyone knows how to disable these lock screen controls. Thanks
You can try checking out the settings within the music application, but I'm pretty sure that's just the way it is.
Try out some other music applications. I use Poweramp which is a paid app, but there are some good free customizable ones.
So I have tasker and widget lockscreen apps
I was wondering if there was a way to make the music widget only appear on the lockscreen when music is playing? or if tasker is not needed that would be a plus since im quite noob and my profiles there are super simple heh.
Probably it's a problem with your app.
Because i have the stock lockscreen and the music widget there is also if the music is in pause.

i know in the stock lockscreen its not there when you are not playing. but thats stock.
Im trying to use Widget Locker Lockscreen and was hoping there would be a way to have something similar to that maybe by using tasker?, but without tasker that would be the best as i said im noob haha.
just an invisible widget for music would be the best! and it only appears when music is playing
I thinks is difficoult/impossible
Hi,
my first post here on XDA forums, so a big hello to you all. I want to create my own music player widget with Kustom Widgets and also wanna add some toggles for
quicksettings etc. As for the quicksettings, i used the notification toggle app, which worked great when installed as a system app, but i wanna control them only from one app, KWGT.
I know there is some issue with direct accessing these toggles from widgets, but thats all i know since i dont even know how these toggle- and media control functions are named.
So i cant even search to get detailed informations. Now when i try to control my music player from KWGT, nothing happens - except when i previously started the music player and press
play and pause one time. After that i can control it with my self made buttons from KWGT. As for the quicksetting toggles, none is working. KWGT is installed as a system app and also has
permission to access player functions and toggles.
So my questions are: How are these controls named excactly and are there any general solutions? Is this issue because of Sony's UI restriction? Just for the record, im using a rooted Z1
locked bootloader with DStrikers Rom 5.1.1.
Thanks in advance!
Hey guys,
I have a little problem/question.
Is it possible to display Spotify controls like "pause" oder "skip forward" on the lockscreen instead of the square with my wallpaper?
I have stock rom 2.3.047st installed with Nova launcher prime. Bootloader is closed, no root, no custom recovery.
Also I tried to install various lockscreen app like Next Lock screen or Locker Master. They don't work for me...
Maybe you can help me.
