coming from a rooted and android wear ROM flashed gear 2 neo about 16 months ago, i thought i could get used to the way that tizen does its music player app, and its just not to my liking. several things about tizen irritate me, but this one is the one that comes up the most often. The music player app i was using in android wear showed the track/volume controls as default when music was playing which made it very nice to interact with when i was playing tunes. I cant seem to find a way to make tizen do this. Does anyone have any ideas about it?

So when you hit play from a bluetooth device it seems to be pure luck as to which player will start on android.
Is there anyway to alter this behaviour? The phone in question isn't rooted, and won't be. Since this is the case I can only remove the updates to the Music player, but it's still there and will randomly take priority over winamp.
I've always experienced this no matter what media players I'm using. Sometimes it will just start playing on the regular app instead of the app i want

Solution
The Solution is: Install old winamp 1.1.1

So I am liking my Samsung Galaxy II more and more every day but one thing that drives me nuts is the inability to find a suitable app that willy play audiobooks at variable speeds.
I finally found a program that works for most podcasts. "Pocket Casts" with Presto player for viarable speed control.
There is on program call Xspeedplayer that works for playing audiobook files but there is no way to jump to different parts of the audiotrack. Say for example I listed to the book for 1hr going to and from home then read a little bit on my kindle well there is no way to jump ahead to where my reading left off.
So if anyone knows of a good audio player that works for audiobooks that allows for variable speed I would love to hear about it.
TIA
Hopefully if enough people star this Android issue Google will add it as a feature to Android :laugh:
There is Nova Player which is mentioned in that thread which looks reasonably promising,
alternately Audio Speed Changer.
Or perhaps SFT AudioPlayer might work but not sure how good playback is?

I have been very happy with Presto Sound Library Open Beta - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aocate.presto&hl=en
which works well with Akimbo Audiobook Player - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.akimbo.abp
and Pocket Casts - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.shiftyjelly.pocketcasts
So there is a solution but it will cost you over $10 I agree it should be included free with the OS like iPhone etc.

@shortbus - I have Presto but disappointed that the app hasn't been updated in a while, as there is bug where if I get a phone call while listening to Pocket Casts / Presto, it doesn't gracefully hand over the audio to the phone app, and have to force-close it after the phone call ended. Running Android 4.1.2 Jellybean on a GNex. Curious if you have the same issue - cheers.

No problems here from like what you describe. I have had the program freeze on my but I am not sure if that is Presto or the Pocket casts program. I am running Jedi Mind Trick.

But it has worked on all different builds and other programs.
Hope you figure out why it is happening.
Have you guys ever ran into the problem where you were listening to music on you phone then you play music on you tablet and Google pauses your music because your playing music on multiple devices?
Well this app I made fixes that.
I made this app quickly because me and my friend are always listening to music at the same time and it kept pausing the music.
When I have more time Ill update it with a better icon, better look, ect. but it works perfectly and it makes me so happy.
I know I can't be the only one in the world that ran into this problem and was annoyed. So here's a fix
HOW TO:
-just open the app, click on accessibility and turn on Google Music Multi User Support.
-Thats it. You're done.
No need to worry about it again. Turn on and off your phone? No worries. Don't even think about it.
also this app doesn't affect battery, like at all.
This app has only been tested on:
*Nexus 7
*Galaxy S4
*Galaxy SIII

I used to have a Gear 2 which used a program called Gearam for music detection. I was wondering if there is anything available for the S2 to detect songs like Shazam does? I can currently do it on my Huawei watch and am thinking of getting an S2 but not having this would be a deal breaker. I appreciate any feedback on this.
havent heard anything like that .. but sounds great ...
I think everyone should tweet and message on all social networks to app developers so they see that many of us want support for this watch .. for example I already tweeted to Waze .. will see what they will replay
consider to use Music Player S2
Hi folks
I used to have the Galaxy Watch and I've upgraded to the Galaxy Watch 4 and it's quite disappointing that Bixby can't play songs from Spotify even for premium subscribers and even when it is paired to my Samsung phone. I've so far sideloaded and used the modified Spotify apk which allows me to search and stream but it also doesn't work it Bixby. I have even sideloaded Google Asistant but after it says it will play the song it always says there was a problem as it doesn't seem to work with native watch or phone apps. Is there any workaround for this function either in Spotify or any other music streaming service such as YouTube Music? If not is anyone currently working on it?
Thanks all
Yeah the Android ecosystem is so broken. I can't imagine apple releasing a watch without such basic functions.
Surely someone will find a way to make galaxy watch 4 bixby work with Spotify
Ok
