when you listen to music and you then lock the phone, you can still pause and skip the song from the lock screen.
However the problem is that its locked the album cover and song i was last listening to the 'lock screen'. The buttons still apear as though i could skip the track but dont do anything.
Ive turned the phone off then ack on, and yes this appears to sort the problem, but then when i listened to my music again, same thing happened?
any thoughts?

Ok i listen to my GS2 in the car through an Aux cable and all is well
But when i lock the screen there is no way to skip the music tracks other than put in my pin and unlock the whole phone!!
Is there any way to bring up a quick music screen or widget to avoid doing this all the time??
Not the safest while driving

+1 for poweramp
yes there is in stock music player there is a little area at the top of the screen while locked.. (at least ifyou are locking without pattern, havent tested it with that)
just try hitting the center button then you can go to top of screen and control the music or skip tracks..
alternatively you can get a media adapter in iphone format and hit the button twice quick to skip tracks.. even while locked.
Howdy guys!
I hope you have all recovered from the crazies of last night!
I have a bug to report for CM7. I use the lockscreen music controls which can be activated from the Cyanogenmod settings>Lockscreen>Widget options.
So here is what's wrong. Sometimes it works all fine but more often than not, what happens is that the music controls (back, play/pause, skip) just don't work. I press the next button a few times, but nothing happens. I unlock the phone and go to the next song manually in the app. But then after sometime the songs skip a few times. Looks like there is a huge delay between pressing the button and it doing what I ask for...
Same with play/pause and back buttons. By the way, I use the Google music BUT this happens with the stock music app as well.
Please help. I am a music addict. I need my fix! (pun purely coincidental)

I used TiBu to freeze the default player, and I use PowerAMP Pro. It just works, and the PowerAMP slide lock screen controls work perfect. Just me, though.
Ciao!
I just flashed this rom last night and while walking to work today, I gave the music player a try and didn't have any issues with skipping, both with the lock screen and long holding the volume button.
+1 on PowerAmp. That app rocks! It was one of the first apps I purchased. TiBu was the next one.
Have you tried the setting to skip songs with the volume up/down buttons? I've been using that feature so I dont even have to turn the phone on to use the screen.
I would use other music apps but I also use Google Music and other music apps dont have the ability to stream from there yet.
EDIT: Or try gestures to skip, play, pause, etc.

+1 I also use power amp. No issues here.
I think I know what the problem is. I've had this same issue too in the past. If you press the play button on the widget, the lock screen doesn't show up so in order for it to work normally you would need to enter into the app first to work which defeats the purpose of the widget. I am using cubed music player.
Not sure how to fix your problem, but here might be an alternative for you!!
While the screen is "off"(and possibly at the lock screen), you can HOLD the volume UP button to go to the next track, and HOLD the volume DOWN to go back a track.
This is a problem I've had way back since I first had my GS2. It seems to come and go, sometimes certain Roms don't have it, and sometimes they do. What on EARTH causes this issue?
Issue Example:
Music playing, lock screen, wait for a while...hear a text come through, press button to unlock screen and as it turns on the music stutters for JUST a second.
Very frustrating :[
My songs or videos tend to go on "mute" mode when a notification goes off. I don't want my song to be muted and then play skipping the lyrics while the phone vibrates for imcoming notification.
Is there any way to solve this issue?
yeah u are right while incoming notification blocks the music sound and the music doesn't pause instead plays on and lyrics skip.
Even i am trying to figure out if there is any settings to change it

Hold the app from which notification comes and tap app info. Go to manage notification turn off allow notification.

Hello as far I think this is not a software issue, I read about something like this much earlier once. Actually most budget phones come without a dedicated sound chip for music and share the one inside the processor for both media and sound notifications. As a result when a notification comes in the current media u r watching gets muted. You can prevent this from happening to some extent by putting the device on silent and turning vibration off while watching or listening to content.
Even in silent mode, media is getting muted while we receive notification on realme 3 pro.

Actually the notification mute mode (can be enabled by tapping the icon below volume changer panel, dont know the real name of it) is helpful in your situation. Media is not paused or muted in this mode.
Hi all
im still an Android newbie so apologies if this has been asked before. I did search the forum before posting and got some older hits but I’ve not been able to fix my issue.
I have a P6 non rooted and use Spotify. I’d like to see the basic controls on my Lock Screen. Is this possible?
The only thing I can think of is Notifications. Do you allow Spotify to show Notifications and do you allow Notifications to be shown on your lock screen?
Hi there. I believe I have all of the settings correct to allow Spotify, yes.
Im Stumped
Hold on a moment. I set my screen to be off.
Pressed the power button whilst music was playing. The lock screen lights up and hey presto. I have Spotify controls.
So the problem is related to the always on screen when on standby.
