[APP][4.0+] Floating Music Widget - Android Apps and Games

Market description:
You can't disagree that ICS lockscreen music control is a really convenient thing.
But have you ever thought about being able to control your music from anywhere?
If yes, then this application is just for you.
This is basically a music control widget you see on the lockscreen, except you can launch it anywhere.
And you can change it's size - make it huge, or make it tiny. Tuck it in the corner, or place it right in the middle of the screen.
WARNING: For this application to work your player have to support standard ICS lockscreen controls. Those players include but are not limited to:
Poweramp, Droidsound, Yandex.Music
To close the widget, double tap it. To resize it, pinch it out or in.
You can launch this app by the regular shortcut or the same way you launch Google Now.
Now, letter trom the developer(from me ):
As this app implements exactly the same interface as 4.0+ lockscreen music controls, it is obviously unable to control players which don't support 4.0+ lockscreen controls. However, my other app, Quick Control Dock, is able to control some players which doesn't support lockscreen controls.
This app is and will be totally free. No annoying ads. But if you will suddenly feel generous, please consider a donation

And...where is the feedback?

Any way to change the widget size and shape?

This seems like a very good idea and I am tempted to give it a shot! One thing I like so far is that it has to ability to be closed!!
The other floating apps out there stay on the screen, sure it minimizes icons placed on peoples homescreens, but when I am reading something and have to constantly move something around to keep reading, it gets rather annoying!

Well...nothing about shape, but you can change it's size by pinching it.

Lol well, so far love it. Light, simple, quick to respond. 2 devices, both mostly stock, rooted 4.1.2 Moto Razr xt912, RAZR HD XT 926.
My only suggestion / request would be; open app on single tap of artwork.
Customizable colors would be appealing, but not at their cost of the lightweight feel.
Keep up the great work!
Thank you!

About opening app - it's a good idea, and it will be really easy to implement as I've already done exact same thing in my Quick Control Dock.
I'll do it.

You are the, wait for it...... MAN!
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2

Okay, I'm off to code some features you requested
Think I'll finish in one or two hours.
Only one question - should the app close itself when you open current player by tapping album-art?

I didn't even consider that, but yes. Otherwise the redundancy would be too much to bear.
PS... Bought your other app. Digging that one too!
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2

Okay guys, got a little update.
Changelog in 1.0.1:
-Long tap the metadata to open current player
-Size and position of widget now stored on close and restored on start
-Slightly altered position of the metadata
-Maximum widget size is now bound only by min(width, height)
-Fixed crash in ICS devices(or not, need some testing)
-Added mini-mode for phones - in mini mode all metadata will be hidden and the window will become very small. To exit mini mode, long-tap the play button. To enter mini mode - minimize the window with your fingers.

It works good but what's the point if we already have it in our notifications?

App crashes at start. Tried using this on a rooted stock rom Nexus 7 (2013). The player I'm using is Rocket Player.
How do I send you a crash report?

When open this app from quick control on my navigation bar, it occupies the whole screen
I tried reducing the size but it still occupies the whole screen
Nexus 4 running pa3.92 android 4.3
Any idea how to fix it?

You have 4.3, yes? There is a crash because I compiled it against 4.2.2 library. I'll compile it with 4.3 and upload an update soon.

Not every player has notification controls. For example, my favourite Droidsound(I use it for playing PSF files) doesn't.
Some doesn't provide a button to switch song back.

Strange, mine is working fine, check out the screenshot. Do you have the newest Rocket Player version? Maybe try to reboot, sometimes Google Music just won't let music controls go.

[LIVE WALLPAPER][2.1+] Album Art Live Wallpaper

Hi,
I have released today a live wallpaper that will show your album covers as 3D tiles. The covers will react when the finger is above them, there are some settings to customize dimming, color tint, cover size, ...
The application is available as a free demo which is fully functional except that it will only pick 5 albums from your music collection.
There also is an unlocker application (not free) that will allow showing all your album covers at a time instead of just the same 5.
Download the app on Google Play

Hi, just to know whether there really is no interest in such a wallpaper (in which case I would just give up on new features).
If any one is interested in testing the full version, I will gift the full APK to the first 10 reviewers of the demo version (no need to post a positive feedback, just post your own true feeling about the app).
Yea I would like to I'm mostly curious wether it works with streamed music from google music. Either way ill give it a go!
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
hi, the wallpaper fetches the covers from the android's internal media database. I have no idea whether Google Music writes the covers there (I doubt it). Please tell me when you have tried it.
Anyone else interested in testing the wallpaper? I'll send the full unlocker APK for free to the first 10 willing to give me their feedback here.
Or maybe some additional feature ideas to make it more interesting.
The application has been updated to version 1.1 to fix a bug on some custom ROMs and to reduce the package size.
Hey I think it's a great app but at the same time the functions are so limited

force close on lg optimus 2x running stock gingerbread 2.3.4
Unfortunately I cant test it but i can look into the settings. You could maybe add transition options like fading (fading speed, fading color ..) or make the album arts be like flipping tiles when changing (wp7 style, kinda..)
cheers
Interested
I'm willing to try it out. I'm curious about one thing. Will it automatically update itself once we change album arts of songs using tag editor apps? Or will even changing others details and tags affect it?

I would be interested in testing on the Asus Transformer Prime running Tegra 3. That is of course, if this is also made for tablets. Cheers
Nevermind...the way I download my music doesn't have cover art, so this wallpaper will do me no good. But it does run great on my tablet with the ONE album cover I do have.
Nice!
My review:
This is a really cool live wallpaper. Runs a bit slow on my Droid X with CM7.2 RC, but I'm sure it would work great on faster phones. A feature that you could add would be an automatic album cover change every so often (let the user pick how long), and maybe also support to pick your own album covers. Cool LW though!
I'll try it if you're still giving the keys out. Got a Nexus S running 4.0.4

Would you happen to have access to your logcat and thus to the Exception thrown? Just to make sure, you do have albums with covers in your music library?

Yep, that's a good idea. I'll make different transition styles.

The wallpaper caches the albums when it is launched. So if the wallpaper is never killed by the Android system, no, you won't see changes. However, as a general observation I could notice that the wallpaper service is getting closed and restarted pretty often.
I will however try to cover that use case, for example each time the media scanner is called.
Thanks for the feedback!

Out of curiosity, how many albums do you have in your library (approx.)? Which was the size setting (small/medium/large)?
The albums should already be switching every now and then (this is random but not configurable, I will make it adjustable).
And about picking the album covers, there are already great apps to do that job, so I prefer to leave it to them instead of making something not as great as they do.

Force closes on Nook Color running ICS
New version released
Hi,
I have implemented new features in response to your comments. Here is the change log for version 2.0:
+ Animation for tile addition/removal is now customizable (for now, can be set to zoom or fade, more to come soon)
+ You can make the tiles fade out with time
+ You can customize the life time of a cover (how often they get swapped for another one)
+ Added better crash reporting (uses the ACRA library)

Hi everyone! New version!
I write this thread to show the application I made with my mate Waninkoko.
We have been some time developing it and we want to share it with everybody.
It's an application to play songs via streaming and download them for Android devices (2.1+).
You can find any song you imagine and play it anywhere.
We also take good care of the interface and functionality. (You can see some pictures attached)
It has many features, it will be in constant developing. Now after we have stabilized version, we are going to add nice features and work on it. Now we have time :good:
New version has new search engines since main engine fail sometimes. Although first works very good we want you can always listen music, so understand funtion of other engines
You can find more information and the download here
or download it directly to your phone using a QR reader:
If you prefer the APK file (only old versions) (added on second post)
If you have any suggestions, opinions, or anything else, just leave a comment or send an email to the developer through Google Play.
Greetings! And I hope you like it.

Btw...what websites is this app using?

Okay installed fine on my HTC Thunderbolt, however I getting FCs
Works great on my SGS Vibrant
The little button that brings up the controls though is really laggy, well atleast the animation is.
Also, the buttons and the colors etc. Don't match at all. This is by far the most stylish music downloader i have ever used, but the controls just look horrible with the beauty of the holo theme.
Thanks for a great app, is there a place where I can upload more mp3's? There's a few that aren't able to be downloaded on here.
I agree controls could be prettier. Otherwise wonderful app.

I would like to see a Status Bar Control feature like Google Play Music or Holo Music or other apps.
Like in my attached Screenshot
And I've noticed a small bug. If you finished listening to a track, the notification disappears like it should. But if you go to the App then and move the progress bar slider backwards and press play, the notification does not re-appear

Yes, make it look exactly the way the rest of the UI looks. The buttons when active are the holo blue, if not active, their white, the background would be the grey color of the rest of the app.

Hi ads7112,

Hi Slither
what I mean is tha you viewer is very nice and light as widget but when you tap on a specific post it requires to open the official facebook that is not so light and fast.
Because other viewers are faster it would be nice to have the option to select the default viewer to use when tapping on the post
Alternatively
It could be used an INTERNAL viewer able to display small pictures and video previews
Hi ads7112,
I'd be happy to add the first feature you suggested since it will still allow the widget to stay lightweight. The option will be configurable via the Stackz app shortly
That's wonderfull Thanks
Looking forward to apply it

I'm not really sure what it could be? I've tested it on my S2 i9100 with both CyanogenMod9 and the stock Samsung ICS firmware successfully.
The only requirements I've put in the widget are :
Screen layouts: SMALL NORMAL LARGE XLARGE
Required device features
android.hardware.touchscreen
I had a look on the net and the three things that might be causing the Play store from filtering your device are if you have changed the dpi to something other than 160 or 240 and maybe if the build.prop doesn't report the correct phone model information to the market.
I've moved around a few image resources to their correct dpi related folders in the hope that was what caused your issue. The updated version 0.9.1 will be up shortly. You could give that a try and see?
Regards,
Steve.
Awesome I will check my build.prop and try the update and let you know. Thx.

Nice app. Only missing 2 things: an torch toggle and the possibility to slide the app like the normal quicksettings.

Ya I'm gonna work on that. The slider isn't as easy as I thought it would be...
Torch toggle is a work in progress.

Sorry, android only allows system apps to change location settings.
GPS can be toggled in this app due to an exploit in the AOSP power-toggle-widget.
But for example on Samsung phones, this is not possible (samsung changed the widget settings).
I would if I could. Long click GPS icon will bring you to the location settings page, wich is still faster then browsing to it with the normal settings app.

Unfortunately, it's the same story as I wrote in my previous post.
Android restricts the toggling to system only. I'm not completely sure though, so I'll do some googling again.
Thanks anyway

In the new version is written, that the trial version is over. But there was never written that this is an trial version. There are only differences between the functions in the beta and the pro.
Wanted to test the app and than buy the pro, but not like this.

I got a suggestion, tell me if you like it (this will gold for all people):
-User will get a 4 day trial of all functions
-After 4 days, you won't be able to use Configure anymore, and the data already configured will be reset
-When you install the PRO version , everything will come back.
Deal or no deal?
Tell me if you have a suggestion too.
Desire HD with Sense 4.1
I have to tap on the quick settings shortcut on the home screen, otherwise the normal Sense notifications come.
Also, I have to press the back button to go back, swiping up doesnt work.
Didn't want to give a bad rating on Play Store so I posted here.
Thanks for the efforts though

Of course I like the app. I've written this as the first in this thread. But I don't like to pay to fast for an app. But the app is great and that is the reason i post this here and not in play store. Only sliding is missing. That's the thing i wait for.
Is it possible that i get a testers licence?

Sure it does. It's not a statusbar replacement, it just has a UI like it.
About swiping it up: I'm working on this, but bugfixes are more important in my opinion.
You can press the statusbar close shade anyway to close it, it'll do the same as the back button.
Thanks for not giving a bad rating!
Remeber, I'm always working on it. You may not feel it, but there are lot's of changes every update.

Yes it is.
I'm gonna need your device_id for that.
You can find your device_id by dialling *#*#8255#*#* (copy aid)
PM it to me and you'll receive the testers license.
Thanks.
Send u a pm...
Thanks.
it would be nice if we can swipe up to close the panel
by the way, I think the name is a bit too common and not distinguished
when I search "quick setting" on play store, a bunch of different apps come out and I cannot find yours
Hey ima buy the pro version if you include hide the icon in status bar and when status bar is expanded cus I found a way to toggle the settings just by gesture 2 fingers down. With tsf shell launcher thanks

[APP][WIDGET]Music Widget for Walkman player, for any launcher

Hello guys,
I want to present you one app that I created little time ago, Music Widget for Walkman that can be installed on any launcher unlike the stock one.
And unlike the stock one this is quite simple and it's in holo style that fits almost every launcher.
At the top-right corner it has shortcut to one other app of mine for Walkman, the Lyrics Music Extension which you can also install from the Play Store.

Walkman music player.
Special Thanks to Akki Da Rockstar for his support and interesting recommendations.
And also for testing the app. So if you find any bug, blame it on him. xD

Since the app was meant for non-stock launchers I decided holo style would be better option, because if you want xperia style you would use stock launcher and stock widget. But since many guys request similar stuff I will aim to add more themes including the Z style..
thanks
thanks for this app widget sir
Thank you sir excellent work! Any plans in porting the weather widget from Sony? Again thanks! Cheers!

Great! I really miss that walkman widget when i'm using my stock launcher. Mostly these days that i've already fixed my ported walkman player. I don't want to use xperia launcher all the time. Thanks again!
Hey, can you upload at the OP your widget app? I'm having problems with playstore atm, i've format my phone and i don't have a backup of your app.
something is not right.
After ulocking the phone, the widget playback buttons are not working. To re-enable the buttons, I just press your lyric icon or the album art. Im on cm10 btw. Still a great app though! Thanks.

Please try this new version of the app.. It has a few bug fixes and a configuration activity in which you can change background, buttons and change visibility of album art and Lyrics Extension shortcut..

Nice! Already downloaded it, but I'll be able to try this later, it's about 3am here, and I'm about to sleep. Anyway, thanks for your efforts, and I've manage to come up with a workaround with your previous version, via ignoring the widget when using cleanup app, that tends to disable the app. I've also switched to Trebuchet launcher 1.0. I just noticed that some widgets are having issues with trebuchet 0.2, mostly preventing the widget from functioning, like Chronus. (i'm on cm10, btw). I'll give you feedback again later once I've tried this updated app of yours. Thank you so much!
Great work thanks I'm using it on widgetlocker, so can be there option to hide it automatically when the music stops and shows again when the music start?

It won't be hard to add that option... I'll do it!
New version is up on Google Play. Check it out!
It even has a lock screen mode, as one user (soxxo) requested!
Great update!
Nice update Buzzymind! Just the way I wanted. Hehehe! Just a little more improvements on the UI, move the xperia buttons a bit higher, and the highlight hover when pressed, should be also like the buttons. (xperia buttons but the hover is still rectangular. ). But still a must have app. Can't wait for the next update. ^_^
Nice job!
Yeah, good update!
Hope you could also update this thread man. I suggest to add drop shadows at the buttons, to make it much noticeable on light colored backgrounds. I have a modded app of yours (for personal use) that has shadows and it looks much better.

Thank you for that suggestion! I made it available in the newest update!
Nice update. I have been using this on my Nexus 4 without a hitch. With the latest update I was getting a launcher force close when adding the widget, but clearing cache and data has fixed that. However, the widget drawer does not show previews of the widgets. It didn't do that with previous versions. When long pressing, the preview does pop up and the widget adds. It is a minor annoyance, but at least it works. Also, I do have a request. When choosing text color with the color picker, I would love to see the ability to pick precise colors by entering color hex codes. It would also be nice if we could choose the color of the buttons. This widget is very close to where I would pay to remove the ads, if that is a future consideration. Thanks for the great work.

Try to clear and reload your dalvik-cache and fix permissions on recovery. That fix the preview and fc issues.

FC issue was fixed by clearing cache and data. I wiped dalvik and fixed permissions, but still no previews in the widget drawer.
