Notification Music Player

Hey guys,basically I'm looking for a music player app that lets you control your music (previous, play/pause, next) from the notification bar. Are there any music apps out there that have this ability?
Thanks.

Samsung Music Player. IDK how you'll get it though when you don't have a samsung device, since the notification bar music controller is part of the touchwiz UI.

I can't get Widgetsoid to show things in the pull-down menu..

Try CM7
The latest nightly builds of CM7 gives you the power to put widgets in the pull down bar to control your music. If you flash a cm7 rom and you go into cyanogenmod settings, you'll find them under 'widgets' there somewhere. So it would not matter what music player you have. It will control it for you. I hope this helps.

Thanks, but i'm not yet comfortable flashing my device. I'm too dependent on it that if something goes wrong, i'm f*****.
Plus my computer died one hour ago.

It didn't work on my Samsung SGS. Maybe if I start a music player first, it would work. But in that case, the default player is just better (for its controls, not in terms of overall features).
I really don't know why no one has tried to post the SGS default music player. It does not have all those features like PlayerPro, but having controls in the notification area (as well as a nice lock screen widget) really is great. If only it could be made to only play songs by folder...

better music player does this i also found on here if you search for the samsung music widget works pretty nice too!

[Q] Can we control the default music player from lock screen?

hello every one! can any one make the default music player have the option of control it from lock screen (next/previous/play/pause)?

i think no that's only available in MiUi..

yes we can but first we have to fix the cyanomod part in to the sysytem in the (CM 7 rc1) user interface control there is function to put music in!!
(the reason why i wanted)

Just give it time, good things come to those who wait and our devs are amazing

lol easy that we can

phantom works with SEMC music player, now? i've tryed it a while ago and it was very buggy.

you can use milocker, golocker, or widgetlocker

the default music player widget isn't compatible with widgetlocker. Never tested the other options.
if only some dev could make it work...

Try using the new Musik player! I found it over at the donut ics rom! Download DonutICS.zip it is a flashable zip.. It is a theme for stock 2.3.3...
Now either flash the zip, if you like it of course, or extract the zip and take the new semcmusic.apk
Change permissions and paste/overwrite it into system/app
Tested with widgetlocker and works ;-)
An other good music app is ubermusic.. It has widgets too but you have to pay for it

This one works:

You have to copy it to system/apps and set the usual permissions.
But imo it's not quite ready.

I will continue to use the CM9 music player. This MIUI v4 player has some nice looks and plays music well, it also has some nice features (like the automatic displaying of lyrics, a sleep timer function, an integrated equalizer and ID3 tag editor). But I miss two things: a homescreen widget (don't know why I'm not finding one) and the player controls in the status bar.

Did you still have Google music installed with miui? Maybe that's the cause and I tried it, if fcs a lot ...... but doesn't freeze the phone by eating resources like cm9 does.....

Both installed, both work fine (no freezes, no fcs).

Anyone know of a APP that will put Now Playing controls in my status bar

I saw it in a screenshot for the music player was wondering if there was something for grooveshark, pandora, or spotify that does the same?

I know Android Music Player has controls in the status bar pull-down menu and depending on the Android version (like CM7) sometimes is on the lockscreen as well. You really don't need one with Pandora or anything like that because the icon appears in the status bar pull-down menu and if you click it it takes you right to the song playing.
Maybe it could be built into a rom but I don't think there is an app for that!

Power amp does.

My pandora also shows up in my pull down... So I guess I'm at a loss for what you are looking for.

I have attached a screenshot of the controls for PowerAmp.
They are not persistent. If you stop music playback the controls disappear from the notification area. You can advance to the next song.

What rom are you on? Those screenshots are from ICS leak (stock). The controls do not show up with gingerbread.

I'd love to know about Spotify, I'd love to have easier to access controls for it.

That's awesome I'm going to try that right now.
The thing I miss most about my Captivate with CM7/9 is that they were getting much better with the lock screen controls working with Grooveshark. The first time I saw it, it would work 50/50 with Grooveshark or starting the stock music player. I think that GS did a fair bit of updates to their mobile app in order to make it work better with media controls now though...
I have spent a fair bit of time corresponding with the kids at GS and all I can say is they are freaking AWESOME!!! Grooveshark is my favorite program on the internet EVER!
They also gave me this lil gem, so I kinda love them. Really impressive devs at GS though, that's for sure.

Album art on lock screen

Using stock music player (don't particularly like Poweramp), is it possible to get full album art on the lock screen? When the S6 first came out, I used my friend's and it didn't appear to be an option - I wondered if it's now possible?

I think if you use the Google music app it displays full screen art.

It's possible, but not with the stock player. Use Playerpro, it has an option to display album art on the lockscreen..

I have tried using PlayerPRO but it still locks like the stock player and every other one. And before you ask yes I did have the full version.

It's in the settings. I don't know why it doesn't work for you. It works for me. Ohh well...

I would love to find out how to enable this feature on mine too, I miss it from my note 4. I'm using the galaxy s6 edge+ on the latest update.
