Hi guys i have a little request, i want that the music controls on lockscreen(that in our stock player they appear when the music is playing) are ever on lockscreen also when i'm not playing music...i'm a noob in android editing then i'm looking for some advices to make this thing possibile!
Thanks in advance!
You can install "widgetLocker" and then put the music widget in lock screen .
You can put many things like shortcut , widget , apps , slider and many things with this app .
But this app can be killed with any task killer So you MUST put it in the *on going to make it stable ( open it setting --> advanced --> show notification icon )
It takes about 10MB from RAM
*on going : I mean notification center

Thanks i knew yet that there was this app...i want to edit the music player stock because he have yet this function(of controls on lockscreen) but they are active only when i'm playing music...i think that somewhere in the system there is something that i can modify in order to "lock" the controls on lockscreen also if i'm not playing music...my problem is that i don't know much of Android OS, then i asked here where we have got the best developers in the world
I thing LG can do that but there is a reason . If you think deeply you can notice :-
When you play music the music app will be kept running and takes from CPU & RAM and when lock the phone it kept running to play the music so you can access the controls . I mean the controls is a part from the music app . So when you stop the music the app will be closed
So if you want the controls kept in the lock screen you must keep the system running the music app and then takes from CPU & RAM even there is no music played . Then the battery will be lost faster.
I think that but NOT sure about it

Oh.. I remember you can install "Go Locker" (it is free) it is very very stable with exactly what you want . install it and select the default theme . it is too easy to use .
The music control stays always just swip the clock and you will find the controls.
Trust me .

Thanks for help OS_Hacking...but my idea was to edit LG's music player not to install external app(that occupy RAM)..besides i can tell also one thing...when i pause a song and lock the screen then i unlock the commands disappear...then i think that the thing to modify is very small...but i don't know Android's structure and i can't tell where modify...thanks in every case!

Hi all..
Please share some very unique n useful apps/widgets for xperia x10..please do not post the common n popular/known to evry1 apps..
Here is my list..
1. Droid phone control
2. MeContacts
3. Speak n Send
4. Storage info
5. Uninstaller (minisoft)
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Hi - I think if they are unique and useful then we'll need to post a description of what they do, otherwise you'd have to download it and try it out to see if it's something that you'd find useful....
For me - Data on demand - switches your mobile data connection off when you're screen is off, unless a background task calls for it.
and battery indicator - put's a little battery icon in your status bar which shows you how many % battery you have left.. much more useful than the vagaries of the std battery icon.
Hey above two are very common man
Ok let me tell u abt mine:
1. Droid phone control
U can the contents of ur phone on laptop without using usb cable..u can do a lot more..give it a try
2. MeContact
Very very useful widget for smart dialling
3. Speak n send
Just speak n it gets converted into txt which u can either sms or put on facebook, twittet, etc
4. Storage info
Shortcut to see the memory status in just one clik
5. Uninstaller (mini soft)
Best uninstaller in terms of speed n ui

My first post!
Just to correct OP, MeContacts is not a smart dialer. It's an app that you can put different contacts in grid view. You can choose either to call or view contact when you tap on that particular contact. Also, speak and send is great, thanks OP.
I've been nerding and looking up for anything that can improve my X10. I'll name the ones that I don't think are very common. But ya, here goes my long list (in no particular order; i don't use all of these now, but they have been useful to me before)...
*1) QuickDesk Beta
- quick pop up menu where you can add apps/widgets and allows you to stay on your current application (for some reason the double tap doesn't work for me, but single tap works fine)
2) Last Call Widget
- a simple widget that lets you see your last call (can 1 click to call back the caller if it was a missed call)
3) Quick Settings (by Sergej Shafarenka)
- an app that lets you quickly set your WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, etc. This is better than having a widget constantly running in the background
4) Quick Battery (by Sergej Shafarenka)
- nice looking battery widget
*5) Multicon Widget
- have 4 shortcuts (not widgets) in a normally 1 icon space (helps save a lot of space)
*6) Car Mode
- press on the icon, and phone all phone calls will be coming out of the speakers (NOT a bluetooth feature which connects to other BT devices)
7) Turtle Photoframe
- best (in my opinion) photoframe for pictures, not a lot of features or customization, but gets the job done I think
8) Unit converter (by Wopnersoft)
- really nice looking interface for a unit converter
9) Tajm
- presents the time and date in word format rather than numbers
*10) Shake - Uninstall
- enable the feature, and go into any application (does not work with widgets), then shake to uninstall the app
11) Blik Calendar Widget
- a 4x1 widget that shows your calendar schedule for about 8-10 days. Uses 1 of 500 built in pics to describe your activity for that day
*12) Home Switcher
- if you use a lot of different launchers and set 1 as a default, this will be very useful for you to toggle between the different launchers
*13) Market History Manager
- 1 click to delete the history in Market, very useful and straightforward
*14) ToDo List Widget
- easy to add, edit, and delete lists. very handle and simple to use.
Hope that list helps people! *phew* that took awhile to type it up =P
*starred ones are the ones I think are most useful.

Is this available on the Android Market?
Ghost Commander... A great Dual-pane file manager(like Norton Commander, FAR manager etc), making it very easy to copy and paste between folders in your SDcard, both panes are individually configurable and its the only file manager that i use...
Its a free download from android market
Note: if you've already used dual-pane file managers handling this is a breeze, but for first timers there is a small learning curve
Thanks ECBomb for sharing the names of those apps..will try n let u know

Hi all, anyone know of a way to maintain the Play Music app as an ongoing app? If for whatever reason the app closes, you must relaunch the app to regain the quick play features in the notification pulldown.
Coming from an iPhone, this is one feature I would love to get back.
Thanks

Not really sure how to make it ongoing, but you can put the Play Music widget on one your homescreens to quickly start it from where you left off if it closes.

Try installing a music player that has a widget such as mxplayer so you can just resume the music from the home screen.

Actually I found an halfway working solution. Using Notification Toggle, I set up a shortcut to play/pause music. Unfortunately is starts/stop the last music app used so it defaults to the stock app. Have to start Play Music first in order for it to work properly. At least it works anywhere

I dont understand how HTC doesnt see an issue w/ this. I used mog and pandora and it stops multiple times during my work out. Its really annoying to have to stop, launch the app, and then hope it continues when i lock my phone again.
I have been searching the Google/XDA world for an app or mod that would allow me to control the music play at the moment. That's my favorite hing about iOS. In the lock screen you can control Pandora, MOG, or iPod.
The notification bar is accessible from within almost any app so it would be ideal to have global controls there. If there is anything like this please feel free to chime in.

I'm also looking for the same thing. I have a jailbroken app on iOS called JukeBox that let's me have a music widget and it controls any app playing music and shows artwork pretty cool.
Google Music?
Cm9 lets you add music controls to the notification panel.

Stock 4.0.4 also lets you pause/play and skip Google Play Music from the notification panel.. so, I'm not sure what more the OP is really wanting, unless you want a miniature version of Play Music to show up or something like that. The dev of the respective app (Pandora, etc) would have to support controls for their app from within the notification panel.
Miui Music and Playerpro both have notification music control too.
I use Pandora a lot and Mog. Google Play music is nice but I prefer MOG. I just wanted to know if there android could possible do what iOS does.
Sure I could go back to my iPhone but I enjoy Android. I was just curious if the option existed anywhere.
Cm9 does allow me to add those widgets, thanks foe the reminder. I will try that out...any suggestions for my first cm9 flash?

Another option is to use the MIUI rom; its idea is the same as iOS, any music app can be controlled from lockscreen controls..

Most custom roms have this built in now. Google.music has it and so does poweramp. Try em out!

I think I know what you are referring to. I too came from IOS and that is what I liked most. No matter what music player I was using I could control the music (pause, next, previous) from the lock screen. The default lock screen does not offer this, most custom lock screens do not either. However the AOSP lockscreen will, and so does MiLocker (provided the theme has music control built in). MiLocker should work with any ROM, the AOSP lockscreen may or may not depending on your ROM. If you need help let me know. :good:
Also many music players do have controls in the notification pull down. Grooveshark is the only music app that I use that does not give me controls in the notification pulldown. Hope this helps.
I did not make this. Im sharing the google play version. The last thread about this was a spam one and was closed. This is the full version from google play.

You cant, it's a upgrade for the future read the future updates on the play store description
I could not find why people are so interest about this spam .
Guys this is still in BETA version i must say. So some features will still be developed, expect less first but the most important thing here is check for bugs and fc's.

This works fine and the interest is because its a Android L lock screen. I use and it there is one more being developed as well. Gallery is coming soon as well as the status bar.

Thanks, well it replace my default Samsung lock screen?
Okay so this surprised me, it works pretty well. Just one thing, maybe don't have the settings on the lockscreen. Also have a look at allowing for customizes gestures. I am very used to just swiping right to unlock my device, will take a bit to get used to swiping up.

My link send you to the play store.
Pressing the home button still lets you unlock it without any more action
There are various causes why I won't use this lockscreen for now:
- Hiding the status bar results in nav bar and status bar beeing accessable by swiping up/down, making unlocking a mess (it's just fullscreen...)
- Because of the previous bug the notification / quick settings area is accessable
- Disabling the home button results in the nav bar always beeing shown
- Nav bar is transparent, but has a bad looking shadow (see next image)
- The apps-ring of the home button is under the lockscreen, but the apps open when you "select" them (http://imgur.com/eNitpBU)
- My camera doesn't open with the build in feature (com.android.camera2 v2.0.002)
- No music player control
Nevertheless I buyed the premium addon to support your work, I hope this app will get better.
Link doesn't work
Can you just upload apk files on mediafire?
Any way to find a working link. Would like to try this out but all the links lead to nowhere.
