Hello,
I have Galaxy S6 for about 1 month now and there is something annoying me all the time.
I'm playing games, and by mistake I tap "Recent key", that cause distraction from game, and in some cases game that I was playing, will just crash because it doesn't support background activity or however you call this.
So I would like to disable "Recent Key" while I'm playing games, and I just can't figure out way to do so.
I don't want to root my phone or anything, so I'm hoping there is some program or trick to do that.

I've been looking around on the forum and googling for a while for an application like this. But would anyone mind creating an application where when we lock the phone we can still change the music and shows what song is playing. I get tired of unlocking my phone just to change my music.
Much gratitude!

Hi mykewillz48,
I agree with shu8i. Use Co0kie's Home Tab v1.8.5 .
It will do what you want perfectly and is probably the best app available.
i'm ok with DINIK, Cookie home tab 1.8.5 is excellent ! and you can listening your music in lockscreen. but you can't change album or (my selection) when you are in lockscreen, play, stop, next ect... it' ok
Yip, Cookie all the way!! Its ace changing music on lock screen
I really don't want to flash my HD2 i'm not very good with things like that. If there isn't just a cab file to do it, I probably would just deal with it. I like how my phone is besides a few things. Maybe in the future I would want to flash it but right now I like mos things about my phone.
CHT is just a cab you install. Preferably make a backup of your phone, just in case because you never know. After installing CHT you just restart the phone and can customize everything. You should install CHTEditor of course!
btw is anybody expierencing the fact that, if you put the music player on the lock screen, sometimes when you unlock the phone it seems like it has played a few tracks on it's own? Sometimes I see that I'm 3 or 4 tracks ahead in the middle of another track without actually doing that. somebody else who had that?
Yeah Cookie Lock is awesome, I missed that option from Android with Sense. You can adjust the size of the player and everything
Is there an application that will allow music player on the lock screen and will also allow for a passcode?

I would kill for a good program that does this... cookies always crashes on me and either unlocks when it shouldn't or wont unlock when it should, or just gives me a sleep of death and becomes unresponsive... it's annoying because it looks awesome and I want to use it...
(tab hangup and answer a few times whilst the phone is locked and you can make a call to the first person on your recent call lists without touching the slider onscreen to unlock... which was happening to me in my pocket, also occasionally I would hit the hangup key to unlock it and the home screen would just appear, not even trying to lock the screen )
S2U2 does it if you have S2P installed but I find S2U2 blows through my battery really fast for some reason... and my system regularly becomes unresponsive.
So, I am in the process of baby proofing an older galaxy tab 2 with a UI much like that of the S5's kid mode. Ideally I would like this to be as smooth as the kids mode on the S5 where there are no pop ups saying this isn't allowed when a button is pressed or some other bypass is introduced. with that being said I have successfully disabled mini Apps, locked in a kids only launcher with parental control, given access to certain apps. Deleted the google now option. the only button that is giving me any gripe is the multitasking menu button. I post in the general questions because this shouldn't be a device specific issue if this UI goes mainstream, it would more so be a firmware issue. Any help is great.
Im currently having a dilemma
Im trying to play games like clash of clans for example that requires constant internet connection without interruptions like phone calls and notifications. Is there any solution? Been trying to find an app or function to fix this.
Of course most of you all would say you could disable the notification for a certain app (whatsapp for example) but that's not what im trying to find. Im trying to find a "gaming mode" lol
Running on 5.0.2 S6
Going to root...soon. Just not now
Thanks
Yeah you can partially stop some interruptions just as i do.
Try greenify app (requires root) and greenify all apps that are threat to clash of clans . As for calls, i don't think there's a solution but to immediately switch to clash of clans without disconnecting call. That's how i save myself from getting 0 stars.

Android Lollipop features a kind of "do not disturb" mode. When you press the volume rocker the volume bar will appear on the screen. Immediately below it should be 2 or 3 buttons. Try pressing them.
So, one thing that really bugs me about this watch, which may just be how it is supposed to work, is the apps close themselves. For example, I use the timer app a lot at the gym, I'll open it up, do whatever exercise until it's rest time then I'll look at my watch and it's back on the time, I have to go launch the app again... This is REALLY inconvenient and annoying, especially if its an app that takes a couple screen scrolls to get to in the apps list.
I have the double-press the home button set to open the timer, so it's not too bad for that app at least.
Does this happen for everyone else? Or is there something wrong with my watch?
Sounds pretty normal to me. I know when I'm about to send a message bUT isn't complete, it will for the most part be right there when I turn the watch back on or go into the app. You already have the double tap menu button which goes to the last app you were in so you should be good
Bixby does appear to be as bad as everyone thought!
Complete ripoff of Google Now which beat it to market by almost 3 years.
Swipe right into Bixby! (how innovative!)
Bixby formal Launch fail, no voice recognition services due to what can only be accounted to a lack of Samsung resources. Delay announced Launch week!
Samsung suddenly redirects resources that couldn't get Bixby to market in time, to disable Bixby button remap functionality! Amazing!
OP tries to give bixby a chance with Spotify: Bixby understands to look for Spotify speakers via bluetooth but not for Spotify connect/chromecast clients (precisely the sort of shallow understanding based fail that everyone knew would occur)
Samsung finally pushes new firmware to disable remap bixby button via accessibility services!
New samsung firmware apparently makes bixby button slow to respond! Even bixby no longer opens quickly!
Several Bixby remappers (post Samsung update to block remap) appear on market, all with different strategies (Props to the dev community!)
24 hours later, bxActions is updated, supports full, lag free perfect bixby button remapping even after Samsung's update. (There may be others but this one works as good as anything)
Samsung is pwned, again...
Hey Samsung, why don't you concentrate on non recallable hardware and zero battery explosions instead of forcing your awful forced software down peoples throats. No one wants it!
(The keystrokes above could have spent spent acclaiming the S8 hardware, AoD, Facial Unlock, Knox, Samsung Pay, and a multitude of other native benefits but Samsung chose a war they lost in 48 hours that no one asked them to start)
