With music streaming app like Tidal, there is no way to play next on lockscreen. The widget just doesnt' show up like stock player does. Is there any way to fix this? Your workaround is much appreciated. Thanks.
Got the same problem with Spotify. I noticed that the version B152 shows the widget. The updates after B152 doesn't show it anymore..
that what is always see
updates fix one error
damage alot else
The same happens to me with Beyondpod and PocketCast podcasts apps, and with Eleven music app.
But lockscreen controls appears with Google Music App.
I do not understand, it so hard to make all programs can have their lockscreen controls in Huawei Emui??
I hope some solution comes in form of a flashable zip or else.
Same here with Apple Music. No music control widget!

Was wondering if it's possible to download an app to play music other than the stock media player. If so, does anybody have any recommendations for a good one?
Yes. Try cubed (cool interface) or mixzing(lock screen widget).
I use double twist.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I use doubletwist. I tried mixzing (love the possibility to get recommendations) but it shows all my compilation CDs as individual albums on the Album screen. Their only solution is to move all the songs to its own folder. Don't want to rearrange my library.
I have actually gone back to the stock music player as it actually indexes my playlists correctly. I am syncing my library using iSyncr and it seems all other music apps except the stock and doubletwist pull up multiple coppies of all my playlists with all but one of them empty.
I really liked doubletwists look and feel, but at the time the lack of a lock widget was a dealbreaker (not sure if they have added one yet). the biggest drawback with the stock app IMO is the inability to go forward and back tracks via the headset controls. But it seems even the apps that do have this still are flakey with the controls.
A friend bought bTunes and that also looks very nice and has the lock screen widget, but still has the playlist issue.
Would anyone know which podcast app has lockscreen controls? I've tried current versions of Doggcatcher, Google listen and an older version of Beyondpod. Paid or free, it doesn't matter and I would much rather NOT use Widgetlocker. Thanks
dont know man... alli use is beyond pod... i thinks it's te best out...
I use pocketcasts
I use pocketcasts, which, by the ways is the best podcatcher in android(Ihave tried them all) but no lockscreen controls. What a great idea. I'll email the dev.
Would you know if pocketcasts downloads and tags the podcasts as mp3 files? If so I can use a seperate music player with lockscreen controls to playback the files after they are downloaded like mortplayer or winamp. It's a cumbersome solution, but I listen to a lot of podcasts and really need lockscreen controls!
yea
It does download the MP3 and tag it somehow. It shows up in my other music players. Not a good solution. Please let me know what music player you use with lockscreen controls.
Looking for a widget that will detect PlayerPro, Pandora, Slacker mainly, that, when you start playing in that app shows the song info( with album art prefereble, and rating system for PlayerPro, thumb up and down for Pandora, and the similar function for Slacker ) but when you exit those apps hides the widget with only a "Play" button that will start the last played app.
I tried out Phantom Music Control, but didn't find that it hid correctly, or showed the ratings as described above. Maybe I'm asking way to much, and maybe it requires too much support from those particular devs of PlayerPro, Pandora, Slacker, etc... But I really feel this is would be a killer widget/app.
Let me know if anyone has something like this that integrates with WidgetLocker...
Did you end up finding anything?
Phantom doesn't seem to work with CM7 and default music player.
You could try Media Utilities just added auto hide and should work with all of those players.

Hi guys
is there an alternative music player widget thats usable with google play music? i dont want to replace the google music app, i quite like it. but i would appreciate a widget that allows me to directly control volume and maybe even the trackprogress like its possible directly through the app. does something like that exist?
I would be insteresting too. The one from NexMusic is awful compared to PowerAmp.
Media Utilities offers widget to control your music but it seems that the widgets were created during Cupcake era
Was using this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jackthakar.musicwidget , before Google Play Music get its own widget.
I just use Zooper.
Lockscreen media buttons override current playing app and start "stock" player music
Hi guys,
This is my first thread and my english isn't so good, so dont mind me if I make couple of mistakes
Nor try to help me do better next time, thanks
I have one little problem with my Huawei Ascend Mate 7, version L09 with B137 ROM on KitKat 4.4.2
Well it happens when I play (for example) music on soundcloud and lock my phone, music continues playing in background but when i press "power" button to wake screen up and try to pause music, the soundcloud stops playing and the stock music app lauches and plays music from my library,
It happens same when i try to go next / previous track.
I tried :
►* 1 to change between apps :
Spotify, DI.FM radio, youtube, google music, xiaalive app, all of them have media lockscreen option and none of them seem to work on my phone
►*2 Changed default music app under "applications manager" and that havent fixed the issue either.
►*3 Deleted completely "stock player music.apk app" after obtaining root permission and this just made it worse,
Now when I press play button on lockscreen media buttons all my music apps start playing in same time
►*4 Tried to download any lockscreen app from "play store" which has media buttons on, for example (Next, Echo, CM Locker Start Lockscreen,
This can make media buttons to work normaly now, and not interract with stock music player app or any other music application you have installed on your phone, it perfectly focuses media buttons to application thats currently ON and playing music in background, includes art work too
BUT, as always there is something you must risk, and this might be a huge gap
When you download any lockscreen app from "play store", this will change your default huawei lockscreen and it will disable fingerprint option,
So if you want to "throw away" such a option as a fingerprint, this might be a fix for you
I hope someone has time here to try if same bugg happens on your devices and if it had happend and you found a fix which does not mean "avoding" use of fingerprint option, please say how
Highly appreciated for your reply's and advices
Thanks
It's aggravating
Mine does that too. I installed next lockscreen to override but it doesn't allow Fingerprint unlock. Also my soundcloud now playing disappears from notification tray. And youtube soundcloud urls don't open in app. No default choice for soundcloud or browser. And if my phone restarts, my wallpapers and defaults go back to stock including ringtone. And sharing to other apps always is difficult because it picks one and then automatically shares to it. So iI haveto uninstall the app it shares to and reinstall.
