A couple of weeks ago I noticed that basic music controls of Pandora would show on my R watch - cool! But, as of a few days ago it is gone and I can't figure out why and how to get it back. I run CM 12.1 nightlies on my One Plus One with stock kernel. Any ideas? Thanks.
Do the controls appear as a notification on your phone?

Yeah, it's a common refrain with the latest update from Pandora (see the reviews: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pandora.android). I got into it with their support staff last year regarding Wear support - they don't give a rip about it. Also, with the latest update, Pandora hangs on my Galaxy S6. I'm sure there will be an update eventually.
I have the same problem with Spotify: the controls appear on the watch most of the time, but every so often the aren't there.
My Pandora app just did an update today (June 11, 2015) and was hoping it would fix the issue but no joy. My Google Music app displays on my watch but still no Pandora. It will work on Kit Kat roms but does not seem to work when I run LP roms.

Would anyone mind trying on uastring android?
When flash first came out I could watch flash vids on ESPN.com. now I can't, I've tried on stock 91, stock 33, and cyan 6 stable. I can watch if I change ua to desktop but until recently i could easily watch them like any other site. Its sort of annoying. its definitely good I can watch them but its a hassle to keep changing to desktop. I'm stock 33 right now. The vids show up but wont play.
Bump. I realize most people around here probably don't know what ESPN.com is so forgive me maybe if I keep bumping, someone who is familiar will happen across this. Thanks
I just tested it and they play fine for me. I am running the latest nightly but I doubt that matters. When I clicked the link it asked me if I wanted to play using double twist or movies. I picked movies.
I could watch in either android mode or desktop.

Thanks that's interesting. When I use desktop they work but don't ask what I want to use to play them. Come to think of it, when vids on ESPN used to work for me they never asked what I wanted to play them with. I wish I knew if clearing the browsers data or even wiping the phone could fix it, it would be a hassle but it'd be worth it. Oh well, its always something...thanks again
edit: they work when i have plug-ins set to "on demand", thats good enough for me i suppose
edit: now doesnt work "on demand" after the first time. This phone sure does test my patience frequently.
bump, just wondering if any issues watching espn videos have come up for anyone else? Im talking about the full site of course, not the mobile one.
Is there anyway the radio could be at fault? edit- nvm didnt work
Im grasping at straws here its just so irritating that the only website I want to use flash with is the only website I cant.
Im currently running a custom ROM and it still isnt working. Im on frg 33 but espn.com videos stopped working before I flashed it.
I am using Dolphin Browser HD and I watch the videos embedded in the page. They work great for me. The Volume buttons are set to scroll initially so you can go to the app settings and change it back so you can adjust volume while watching.

thanks thats interesting. I tried dolphin, i can watch vids on the espn mobile site but i still cant on the full site. I cant imagine what the problem could be since it spans stock/rooted, various roms, various browser apps and various radios, what the hell even remains consistent throughout all of that which could cause this? I love this phone but my technical difficulties sure are adding up...it would be cool if i at least had some number to call to get help with the $600 device i purchased. My fault though I did realize google wanted to forget the poor nexus one fairly early on...
Well, it is definitely slow to load up. I have dolphin set to Desktop UA. The page loads up. I click the flash player on-demand. The flash video box stays black for a little bit, then eventually the play button comes up and a commercial plays first. Then again the black box reappears and then the play symbol loads again. (this is with about 1mb/s connection or less). Its takes some patience, but its espn highlights on the go, for free, so I can't complain.
I also remember a newer version of flash player coming last week or maybe 2 weeks ago. You could try to uninstall and reinstall flash player.
When you say not loading, do you mean the flash area is black, or the area has an error message displayed?

When its set to desktop I've gotten it to work. But videos on ESPN played when set to android uastring but this was with only the first couple of adobe flash versions. At some point, after some update I guess, ESPN videos stopped working...
Hi,
i cant play my musics on the cloud with google music. And if i choose a playlist to listen offline cant download the songs! Just notice this sincer yesterday...
problem resolved... i went to google music phone permission in my browser on the pc and deleted all the phones there. Now it works
Yeah I have a problem too with this Big long redesign g-music.....WHAT THE HELL HAPPEN TO SOME SIMPLE LOCK SCREEN CONTROLS. They are trying to make a sink in the music market with this NEW UI but still no new widget design or lockscreen function. Please somebody come up with a modded g-music with some simple lockscreen function like i notice with alot of other modified g-apps.
Its coming in ICS. If you're like us and you've been running it you'll notice the lock screen has music controls and so does the notification bar.

Try increasing the minimum frequency of the CPU and /or changing governor.
Not sure about Google music, I had a version that worked but then tried an updated version and it just force closed no me
Edit
Just tried running Google music version 3 and it works fine on gb decked ROM. It was version 4 that I couldn't get to work

Thanks, but I increased the minimal cpu to 672 and the maximum to 710 MHz and tried all governors and it still pauses when turning off the screen.
Version 3 of google music starts up fine, but when I try streaming music it force closes
I am not having any problems and never had even on past versions of Elelinux's GB... I used and still using the kernel that came with the rom... Flykernel 13. I can admit that using other governor than smartassV2 I experience choppiness during screen-off music playback with all players.
Actually, having double checked poweramp, music is also pausing for me when screen goes off. Have checked all advanced settings and also poweramp settings but can't see why. Not sure why this happens but maybe something to do with latest power amp version ?
Ok have found a workaround for the poweramp issue. For me, it only pauses when in the app so using the widget from a home screen means I'm able to lock the screen without music pausing

This bug has happened to me as well since the new version 2 was released. I reported the bug on the official forums and the dev replied saying its my fault for using a custom rom. Apparently its fine on 2.1 stock.
So I've gone back to poweramp 1.4 which works fine.
Google Music works here, but I cannot stream or make music aviable offline.
I don't think this is going to get fixed. I've tried every build of version 2 so far and this bug still remains.
Roll on feb 22!
Hello.
I've been using an app in my androidphone "Metafy" that shows track and artist on my pebble when using spotify. Since the latest update of Spotify this does not work any more. Any one have the same problem?

Found an alternative app for sending Spotify info to the Pebble music controller that seems to work.
(BTW I'm using galaxy s3 and liquid smooth ROM 4.4.2).
why don't you share what you found as an alternative?
Alternative app
I use Media Utilities. It works with Spotify and Podcast (and possibly more).
The disadvantage is, that it needs notification access to read out the current track/podcast. Additionally the user interface is a little odd and buggy.
But it works and nothing bad has happened yet.
...yay, can't post links as a newbie, but I bet you can find it yourself in the Play store ( com.batescorp.notificationmediacontrols.alpha )

Sorry I forgot to put that in there. It was not a good solution anyways it was a strange app that constantly increased the volume.
Tried Media Utilities as posted above and it works!
It does not show Album though.
In the app I added spotify, and then in settings under Application Integration i checked the marker next to Pebble Watch.
Use Music Boss to fix this, and you'll also gain the best watch app for Pebble as a bonus n

Hey
So I took delivery of my new Vauxhall Crossland X with Android Auto yesterday. Its great to have a headunit that will work with android auto. However I have a very annoying issue.
Nav, calls and spotify work without issue. However I have recently switched to google play music. Now the app opens and when you press play the track starts progressing and you can see the time line moving, however no sound is coming through.
If I change to spotify it works without issue and I can listen to music, albeit in a lesser sound quality (in my opinion) .
Has anyone else found a fix for this issue?
Appreciate your help.
Best wishes
Andy
AFAIK there's sadly no solution for this yet. I can't post links yet because I'm haven't posted much yet, but if you google for "Play music not working on android auto" you'll find a thread in the Google product forums.
Seems to be a Huawei specific problem...
It most certainly is a Huawei issue for which they have no answer. My issue isn't with Android Auto but the Google play music app is glitchy on my car stereo. The album art is from the first song that played the first time I connected the phone to my car and it hasn't changed since. The native music app and spotify have no such issue. I think it has to do with the lack of integration. The play music app's colour should match the album art in the drop down (since Oreo 8.0) but it's just a big orange box. There's definitely something wrong with Huawei's play music.

Installing equalizer from Play store (equalizer by Smart Android apps) make sure eq is ON, and stays on, skip to next song and now Android Auto works.
But first:
Remove and clear data from Android Auto, reboot
Clear all Bluetooth devices from car, and under system in your car remove Android Play devices.
Clean fresh set-up.

Wow, this finally seemed to fix it. I installed the app and reset the Android Auto settings and it's now working again. Thanks a lot!
I gave up before seeing this last post - I sold my p20 pro and bought a pixel 2 xl - have to say it worked straight away and the sound quality on android auto is better too. Gutted Ive lost the p20 pro camera as that was amazing but its nice to have a clean stock phone again. Lets hope the pixel 3 xl has the 3 camera setup that my p20 pro had.
Do I have to leave equaliser on permanently or just for the initial reset of android auto?

EQ option turns on automatically everytime I open Google music
Same issue with Oneplus 6 and Vivo V9. Apart from plethora of issues this issue is the most annoying.
Other issues- Music stops playing and then suddenly resume from beginning of song, Blank screen, no voice control(it used to work before), Whatapps messages are not read(used to work before)
When you try and send a message through voice does it go "uh, something went wrong"?
