Does anyone know how to get the music player to show up on the lock screen while listening to music to work? Its quite annoying having to unlock the screen just to switch songs
If you have a pattern to unlock, it shows on that screen after you swipe. Not sure about PIN security.
WidgetLocker lets you add widgets to you lockscreen (I use it) and works fine, just be sure you disable the stock swipe screen otherwise you'll have to swipe widgetlocker, then samsung stock lockscreen, and finally enter your pin/pattern/password
I have pattern lock and it still doesn't show on the lock screen after swipe
Using Google Music or the Samsung music player?

That's if you don't have security on it. Someone preciously posted it was possible with security but its not working for me
Looks like Sammy forgot something. Ooops. :silly: I was looking for the same thing this afternoon at the pool.

Anybody know a good one? My dad's Droid has a nice default widget but the Vibrant doesn't, apparently.
Search the forum for the stock music app it has ben posted a bunch of times and has a nice widget.

Here is the stock fascinate music player.
Deodexed from my stock fascinate with xUltimate
I'm not much of a fan for the aosp music player mostly because I enjoy the lockscreen control of the stock player.
Here is a zip you can flash with CWM.
A little bit off-topic, but what does deodexed mean? I've looked around, but haven't been able to find an answer.
Can this just be flashed via cwm? I am currently running JTs clean rom but I have missed having they music controls on the lock screen?

If you look in your stock system/app folder you will see a .apk and .odex files per system app. Deodexed files have no odex file hence de-odex. I believe the .odex is like a cached file for the program. Deodexing does speed things up but primarily they are used for customization. I am sure there is more to it than just that but that's all I know... I would say google it for more info.

First hit has your answer.
Thank you, worked perfect.
Why is this a new thread in the dev section?
(1) We already have a full deodexed system dump.
(2) This is just one app, not development.
Meh someone got some use out of it....

While playing music from the stock player there is a cd at the top of the lock screen you slide it down for the controls.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
This sucks. Apparently it only works if you don't have a pattern to unlock. That's why I never noticed it, I use a pattern.
If I install this will it replace the one that is in JT's stock rom?
jv
Yes you did. The stock music player let's you control your music through the task bar. While playing music check out the puzzle screen and at the top there will be a cd, pull it down , and whala!

Here is how I do music controls on the lock screen, with greatly superior programs...
Get TuneWiki
Get Widget Locke
In Widget Locker, enable the TuneWiki widget.
Bam. Now you have a much better music player than the AOSP music player OR stock (handles shoutcast, does lyrics, etc.) - but you also have a much better lock screen that's extremely customizable. Win x2.

Alright so I'm trying your suggestion with widget locker, and when locked my screen keeps cycling on and off. Have you not had this issue? It happens with no settings changes. I'm using launcher pro on jt's clean .4

So what can I do to replace my lockscreen? I'd like something like WhisperCore which forces me to wipe away my fingerprints in order to unlock so that others can't unlock my phone by looking at the smudges. Is there anything like that out there?

Wow that is a hell of a lot of lockscreens but I'm looking for a specific feature which they all seem to lack. With whispercore (for the nexus) you have a feature called sumdge-resistant screen unlock patterns. So you draw out your pattern as normal but instead of simply unlocking you are brought to another screen with stars all over the screen. You wipe your finger up and down the screen to highlight the stars. Once they are all highlighted your phone unlocks and you've successfully wiped away your the smudges from your pattern. Honestly if I'm not forced to do this then I'll probably forget.

Anyone know of a lockscreen or widget that will allow me to control my Google Music app without having to slide unlock the phone. I see that the photon allows you to do this with the stock music app but not with the Google music app. Much thanks.

has anyone explained yet how to replace the lock screen via root to the aosp rotary one? I am interested in completely replacing the blur lockscreen
Using Widgetlocker and the darn stock Motorola lockscreen keeps popping up from time to time. Anyone know how to disable it or freeze it in TB to keep it from coming up? Very annoying to have 2 lock screens to mess with.
Any tips on getting Google Music lock screen controls to work Meanrom ICS v2.3?
use sense 4. Has the ability to use lock screen controls with third party programs. Not the answer your looking for sorry.
You can follow me on Twitter - @NotSo1nter3stin
The issue is, you're trying to use Google's music app (let's say "AOSP"), and the lockscreen controls for it on a sense rom. The sense lockscreen has the controls for the provided HTC Music app.
You could try this: Use File Manager and go to /system/apps and delete HtcLockscreen.apk
Reboot.
Then try to use Google Music lockscreen controls.

I only use AOSP lock screen and I can confirm it does not work on MeanROM. Or any other ROM I've tried for that matter.

My experience when ics first leaked, doing this means you have to unlock the phone to answer incoming calls. If using face unlock, you'll miss almost every call.

I'm using the newest version of Spotify and I was able to get lockscreen controls without changing any options in the Spotify app by using a pattern lock. I have not tried this with PIN or other types of lock screens, but the controls show up where they should and function properly when using pattern lock. They do not work at all with the TouchWiz standard unlock screen from my experience. This is sadly the only way I've been able to get them working without using a third party lock screen app.
