S21 issue with Chromecast media control on lockscreen ? - Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions

Hi everyone,
I've noticed something annoying : Media control doesn't work at all on lockscreen with Chromecast. Include apps like YouTube, Netflix, Disney+ ...
Somehow, volume control works fine with the physical buttons, but I can't pause/play/previous/next.
Media control works fine if not casting, for example when playing Spotify on my phone, control on lockscreen is fine.

Saw several people complaining about this on Samsung community, but didn't find any solutions... Seems it appeared since OneUI 3.0
Does anyone have the same concern ? Did you resolve it ?

I don't know about chromecast since I don't use it, but I get the same issue when I play music through "OK, Google".
Everytime I use "ok, Google, play (song, music, playlist) on Spotify", the lockscreen controls don't work to play, pause, skip and go back. I thought it was something to do with Spotify, but they could not help me with it.
So I guess it must be something on samsung or Google.
Saw several users with this problem, and I think it might have the same cause as yours, but haven't seen a fix for it yet.

Yeah, got exactly the same issue and there are even some posts about it on Samsung forums and reddit. Tried to get help via the Samsung members app but they say they can't see any issues on my system logs and the screen capture. I start to hate Samsung for their really bad support.

Same issue here, Samsung tab A (sm-t510)
Ever since the android 11/ oneui3 upgrade.
Very fustrating. Only fix is to turn on the media "music" controls on the lock screen, tap the clock, get the controls. Also very occasionally tapping pause/forward etc works, even grayed out...

^^^^^^^
I have read the blog on se-nse.net.I cant understand the language on the pic..
And anything new apart from this ?
As far as I can tell, no.
But as more info "leaks" Im sure you will find it on that blog
Before the equaliser I think the media player needs a way to set no-loop/loop 1/loop all as any other media player in the world!
Gapless playback would be nice too.

Im sure that is a memory card issue, rather than an android one.
Memory cards being used for music in SE phones have always had a small "silence" whilst loading between tracks (dating back to the W810, maybe even earlier)

The problem is not with the memory cards! They are just storage. It is up to the media player software to buffer properly so that the next file can be read before the previous song is over.
Besides,
- SE phones use microSD cards as most phones do nowadays
- I use Meridian media player on the MiniPro and gapless playback works fine.

[Q] [Help] Problems with playlist in AudiophileHD and album art displaying properly.

I'm having a couple of problems with my music collection and I have not been able to find a fix for on google, here or precentral.
The first problem is that album art is not displaying correctly anywhere. The art shows up in my pictures and looks fine. In the native media player 1/2 the albums are black and 1/2 display a question mark. In AudiophileHD a few display the right art, 1/2 of them display a picture that appear to be corrupted, some display question marks and some show a picture of a record. I attached an example at the bottom.
The second problem is that when I add music to audiophile by selecting "play all" it plays the songs in alphabetical order. They show up in the correct order on the album, but unless I add each song individually they play in alphabetical order.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Audiophile. I've also deleted and reloaded my music without any change. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks a bunch!

Anyone?
Sorry, I don't check XDA regularly (you just got lucky today). I am updating the metadata parser in Audiophile to better detect embedded image art. Hopefully by next week if should be in the developer build. New version will also have lag free scrolling and a bunch of other features. Thanks for the patience, and please post over at PreCentral in the future if you want a response.

[Q] Disable Location set by GPS Notification

As stated. I am using anti theft software that forces my phone to switch on wifi and GPS but as soon as it does I get that message telling me something is using my GPS etc. This looks suspicious to a potential thief in my opinion so I want to know if there was anyway at all I could remove or disable this pop up

Well. I have found out that Cerberus somehow disables this message shortly after it is displayed. However I prefer to use PhoneLocator Pro and that is the problem app for me. I contacted the developer and this is the reply
Hello !
This issue is because of your custom ROM you are running.
This is not happening in all the ROM's and you should ask developers of this rom how this issue can be fixed - maybe there is a way to disable this.
I will document myself on this, but I don't know if this can be fixed - even if you are saying that Cerberus doesn't have this behavior . Cereberus might be using a hack to turn on the GPS, a hack which I don't want to use cause Google is watching and these things can ban your app from the Play store.
Switch to Avast.
You can remotely lock the phone, sound an alarm, send text, forward calls, forward text, wipe phone info, gps track etc.... all through text commands. You also have the added benefit of anti-virus and firewall protection.
Best of all..... It's FREE.

I have that installed as well, it isn't as feature rich in comparison to PhoneLocator Pro or Cerberus. Plus I like to use the web based interface rather than SMS

Cant connect to Samsung Smart Led Lamp (GB9000), how to reset/bypass

Hi, i bought a Samsung smart led lamp, that connects using Bluetooth Low energy and MESH network to control color temperature and on/off with android app,( which haven't been updated since last year) it seems like Samsung suddenly killed this project, with no news about it, its a great and useful smart led lamp but the app is not working properly, i had problems pairing in first place as app kept crashing but after i got it to work there was no problems, until i updated my s5 from 5.0 to 5.1
after that the app loops between searching and re requesting connection to device, and every time it loops the lamp dims to show a connection attempt, but nothing else happens, so i cant get to menu, where is a option to re-initialize the lamp, ( which doesn't seem to working as well) there is no buttons on the lamp and no info about "manual reset", i tried a fresh install , a different phone and phone with kitkat, but all just crash and loop, also when i try to pair using Bluetooth menu it gives me a error: incorrect pin or password, but it doesn't ask for one, i tried the "forcestop bt share" etc but nothing seems to work, also no stop form Samsung and the email address they give in app page in play store is not in use.
also the log of crash points to : source method: FindViewUnlocked and stack trace starts with: "java.lang.illegalArgumentExpection:View=android.widget.FrameLayout{fe9f3fd V.E.... .....I. o,o-960,192} not attached to window manager"
So now for the real question: is there a way to manually reset the lamp or bypass the pin/password?
sorry if wrong subforum or etc

Transpeed H_616 6k UltraHD, dark video, impossible to edit build.prop

Bought this box on AliExpress, after a rather pleasant experience with a Nexbos A95x some years ago.
I thought Android 10 and air remote would be a nice upgrade. Transpeed proved buggy and troublesome from the beginning, with inability to change homescreen items, random notification sounds while playing back, video freezes after stand by, Google Play horrible integration when it even managed to start.
But the cherry on top was when I noticed that video files are very very dark. So I looked around for a fix. The "play a 4k video and then it will be fine" doesn't work. I found a suggestion to change a parameter inside build.prop from the System folder, I can't access and edit it. Seems to be rooted, no permissions.
To boot, even though my TV is 1080p, both CPU Z and Kodi report working in 720p.
Any ideas what I could do to fix video brightness and resolution? Or should I just chuck the box into the rubbish bin and be done with it...

The box is not rooted and this is the biggest problem.
Tried to install t95 firmware (T95 hast has the same devices and the rom is rooted) but It doesn't boot.
