[Q] PlayerPro Alternative - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Does anyone have any suggestions as to an alternative to this music player. Its not that I don't like it (I purchased the full app I'd hope I liked it ) but lately I've been wanting to start using WidgetLocker and sadly PlayerPro's lockscreen player doesn't play nicely with WidgetLocker. So I was wondering if anyone knows of a music app that has lockscreen controls (preferably you can swipe the screen to skip a track) and plays nice with WidgetLocker.

I haven't had any issues with the same setup, widgetlocker and playerpro work fine for me. What problem do you have?

Try WidgetLocker, it let's you place any widget on the lockscreen.

I was looking for a music app that would let the power button or one of the 4 soft buttons play and pause the music.

bTunes works really well.
thanks for all the suggestions! i'm testing out widget locker right now, but btunes does look like a good player. i'm currently using zimly, how does it compare to that?
MixZing

I use Mixzing exclusively. Every once in awhile the album art does not show. But its a great music app.
Thirded on MixZing. Overall a very good player, however you have to upgrade to use the lockscreen widget.

Forgot about having to pay for the upgrade, but well worth it. I like how it auotomatically figures music choices to like and dislike behind the scenes so that shuffle play is more likely to bring favorite tunes.

widgetlocker is awesome.
+1 for MixZing
Widgetlocker is sweet, mostly... I only had it happen on 1 out of about 10 calls today(I downloaded it last night) where it would not allow me to answer the call no matter what.
I've wanted a music player with lockscreen controls for a while. Widgetlocker makes it so every music player can have lockscreen controls.

Lock Screen Music app?

I remeber the 1st few Hero ROMS for the magic had that lock screen music widget when music was playing.
But All new Sense ROMs don`t have it anymore. Is there a way I can find it and install it on my 2.1 Hero? or my 2.2 Magic?
You can install WidgetLocker ($0.99 but well worth it) and add the Music widget to the lockscreen that way. I have Pandora, Jorte calendar, Settings Profile, the clock and the stock Music widget on my lockscreen at all times this way.
Please try our Astro Player Beta http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7268951
It has lock screen widget with gestures

[Q] Music Player Questions

Hey guys, I was wondering if there was a music app that allowed you to change the volume control. The phone volume is too low for my taste. Is the EQ in PowerAmp good for this, and is it worth the price?
I've been using the leaked 2.3 music .apk and its fine for daily use, not car use though. Is there a good car music player available as well?

Mixzing Media Player, totally free.
Free lock-screen player widget, EQ STAYS ON, 4x4 widget is beautiful and automatically downloads music art (can turn that off to save energy if you want but it really doesn't use up much resources)

missing ICS lockscreen music controls

I recently installed ICSSGS on my captivate. Everything seems to be mostly working, but I don't have any music controls from the lockscreen. From what I have read thus far, others do have such controls....does anyone know if I need to enable them somewhere? I couldn't find any setting such as the ones I used to enable lockscreen music contols in gingerbread.
thanks.
Did you try doubletwist?

no, i was hoping to stick with the stock music player....
can someone at least confirm/deny if ICSSGS has lockscreen music controls for the native music app?

I can confirm the lock screen music controls work great with the Google music app.

Are you using AOSP Music or Google Music?
From what I understand only Google Music and a few other apps that have them enabled (PowerAmp, CyanogenMusic) will work, AOSP Music doesn't have them enabled so it wont and I believe that's the default player for ICSSGS
yes, i'm using the AOSP player. thanks for the input. i'll try google music player. though if it's anything like chrome (dead slow) it won't last long.

Everyone stop! Try Jet Audio..
I have tried every music app there is out there whether it be PowerAmp, PlayerPro, Winamp, N7 and other minor players.. but I find Jet Audio mind blowing, fast, feature packed and bug free! Also its got lockscreen controls as you wish.

I've been using Player Pro as well which does offer lockscreen controls. But what I can't seem to find is a music player that offers seeking from the lock screen controls. Anyone come across any apps like that?
