[Q]How to get music players controls in lockscreen and notification bar?

I remember, way back in the day, when my phone was stock and I thought it was so cool that my music controls would appear when I hit the power button to unlock the screen. Then I thought it was even cooler that I could control Pandora (I forget if it was through lockscreen or through notification bar) the same way.
Now I'm rocking Continuum 5.5 and was wondering if there is something I can do to enable non-stock music players to be controlled through the lockscreen or notification bar without having to add any widgets to my homescreen or without having to download any extra apps. I even hate having to drag the little CD icon down on the lockscreen when I'm using the stock music player. Basically I'm really lazy and would like to control both Pandora and my new Google Music app through the notification bar and hopefully even the lockscreen and I'm very picky about having widgets and such.
tl;dr: can I control non-stock music apps through lockscreen and/or notification bar without having to download any apps or add any widgets?

I would live that too, my stock music player controls dissapeared when I unlock the screen now

Check out Power Amp in the market. Does what your asking and more
Now if it only was a light sabor too....

I know Symply and Subpression did this for all lock screens. Samsung based lock screens work with Samsung player, other lock screens work with any other player, don't know for sure Pandora, but I thought they did. I ran symply for a while, buts its not as stable as continuum.

Well... the whole point is that I don't want to download any extra apps other than the ones I use, i.e. Pandora and Google Music. Besides, I've used PowerAMP in the past, when it was still free and I thought it sucked. Way too bloated with crap I don't need and a terrible UI.

I've tried all the lockscreens that come with Continuum 5.5 with Pandora, Google Music, and Winamp, and none of them had controls on the lockscreen. I'm also wanting controls in the notification bar again, I miss that too.

I see that in the description for the "Obsession" ROM it says that a few of its lockscreens will work with ANY non-Samsung music player. Can someone running that ROM confirm whether it'll give me lockscreen controls for Pandora and/or Google Music? Thanks.

Did we find a solution to this???

Continuum 5.6 has music controls on lock screen. Not sure about pandora though. I'll check it out in a few

Yep works with pandora

So to answer your question, you can upgrade to continuum 5.6 and that will give you like four different lock screens that will have music controls for non-stock music players and pandora on the lock screen. As far as notification controls, they don't seem to be there.

Wow, the music controls only work on the Epic and Glass lockscreens. Lol...

if you are referring to stock music player and continuum 5.6 then yes. But on 5.6 there is 9 lock screens., and several have music controls that work with any non-stock music player. Goto settings/lockscreen menu/lockscreen

Nope, I'm on Mosaic IV.

How do you get the miui lock screen to work on continuum 5.6 to look like the screen shots? Mine just has the lock slider on the left and the volume slider on the right. No music controls, and doesn't have the buttons like all the miui screen shots have.

Try posting in the rom's Q&A thread

Just added smart notifications to Media Utilities which basically adds notification controls to applications that have not added them yet like Pandora. Will automatically hide notifications if you switch the anther media app.

[App] Stop the Music - turn off music keys on lock screen

I'm not the developer of this app, I found it on the Internet !
With that app we can turn off music keys on the top lockscreen when we not listen the music.
Ever wanted to remove the active song from the volume bar without rebooting your phone? Now you can!
Just open the application and your music will be stopped. The Volume Bar will be cleared and the music controls removed from the volume bar and the lock screen. No more accidentally pressing the play button.

You can also play a video file and pause it, and voila, no more volume options for music!!!

Fantastic app.
Is it possible to write the app so that it will disable the music then close itself? That way, you could have it pinned to the start screen and simply press it, and it will do everything automatically.

Thanks for sharing!

Awesome and I second the idea of Lumic.
A little option should be avaible in the menu, which allows you to toggle if the application should close itself after removing the music bar.

thanks, very cool app )

Thanx for making this in an app in the marketplace. The app already existed though. Very usefull.

nice app. thanks for this one.

very cool app

Very good app. I think that Microsoft should have included this option in the OS.

I was just thinking about "There oughta be an app for this!" the other day.
Great app, thanks!

[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

Google Play Music issue or what alternative player?

So google play music for me works...but when I disconnect from bluetooth and I end the task for google play the icon remains in the status bar still and I have to reopen the player and close to make it go away. Anyone else have this issue? What players do you guys use?

I've got the free 6 months of play music with the nexus so I'm currently using it.
However my go to app for music playback is poweramp.

Does that issue occur for you though? Like the player stays in status bar even after task has been ended?

If it is in my notification bar I click it to open, then press back on phone till the app closes. If it is still present I can normally just swipe it away.

Poweramp lock screen widget on Nougat / EMUI 5

Hi,
Does anyone running the Beta use Poweramp and managed to get lock screen widget to work?
I am not talking about the Poweramp lock screen that goes on top of the normal lock screen, just the standard playing controls and album art that show up when music is playing.
I have set Poweramp as my default music player but it doesn't work despite the fact that all worked and I didn't change anything from before to after installing beta.
Other music apps such as Google Music and Huawei built in music app show on lock screen without changing any settings but Poweramp does not and I have tried every option possible.
Maybe Poweramp need to do something for it to work with Nougat?

No one replied you? I have now recently update to nougat (c432b361) and I see still the same "bug"?
did you find if it is due to emui 5 or poweramp?

Hi,
I joined Poweramp Beta and somehow got it to work after messing with settings..
It's EmUI 5, I still have crashes if I try and use other launchers with Poweramp and other widgets so stuck using stock for now

Ok but on normal app there are no settings that can help to workaround?
