I just installed the Quantum 2.1 ROM on my Epic 4G, and the ringtones are very selective in which I can use as ringtones/notifications, as well as music. Most of the time, it just lags and crashes. And then the "Sounds & Display" menu in the settings crashes too. Am I missing something here? Did I do something wrong?
I have the Nexus S boot logo on my phone, and was curious if there's a way to get that slick lock animation like on the phone. You know, that white line thing?
Thanks everyone who would help.

I have a questions for the folks here that use the Liberty ROM. I dont know exactly how to describe my problem, but I will do my best.
With the liberty ROM, there is a CRT screen effect when you hit the lock screen button on the top of the phone, once you hit that button the phone then displays what you would see if you turned off a CRT TV.
I just updated to Liberty 3 v 1.0 and everything was good and dandy until I changed the font and boot animation through the ROM Toolbox. Once I rebooted the CRT effect disappeared.
Is anybody else having this problem? I have searched everywhere and do not see any type of setting for this CRT effect. Is there a way to change the boot amination/font and still keep this feature?

My N4 was just updated to 4.2.1, is stock unrooted.
When I have the music player up on the main screen and i lock the screen. The lock screen is glitching and showing a translucent music player coming in and out of existence. It makes it difficult to swipe left or right to access widgets or the camera. But if you manage to start swiping the glitching stops. If i then unlock the phone and hit the home button, the music player sends the controls to the notification bar. Then if i lock the device it doesn't glitch out.
Has anyone else noticed this / can you test it quick? I have to note I am using Klipsch S4A with the Klpisch control app as well. (could it be this is what is causing the issues? I was thinking it might not be optimized for the latest update)
Unfortunately I failed to notice this before the 4.2.1 update so i'm wondering what would cause this glitchyness. It seems to be mostly cosmetic though as it doesnt effect the unlocking of the phone or the music playing ONLY the swiping to the widgets or camera. Very strange.
I've noticed that my music thing doesn't show up on the lock screen half the time but I use double twist so it could be a app update needed for mine

It seems the widgets and the music player are conflicting. The clock randomely shifts from the main lock screen to being just off screen to back again - all the while the music player is glitching through the lock screen from the main screen.
ok it just happened again even though the music player was reduced to the notification's bar. Although this is the first time, I can only reproduce the issue if the music player is maximized on the main screen. I'm going to take screen shots tonight and update.
As you can see there seems to be gltiching between the music player and the camera widget. It happens randomly not just when I have the music player up on the main screen. Is anyone else experiencing this??

Yeah I get this too.
So I hadn't noticed my "play music" app had an update available. Guess what? Problem solved haha...
Sometime the smallest thing you miss makes you feel like the biggest noob lol

So after a reboot the problem has returned....sigh!

I have noticed now that the music player is supposed to replace (or maybe not?) the clock widget on the lock screen so you can control you music. It's only worked properly a couple of times, most of the time it stays in notifications bar or i get the damn glitching again. This has to be a lock screen widget bug.
I haven't found a definite answer yet,
but anybody knows for sure it's a bug for 4.2.1 for stock Music app controls not to show up on lock screen during playback??
I haven't seen any other bugs reported earlier in this thread.
UPDATE: Restarted and it started working..
Yeah sometimes it works properly...seems to be random

Same issue sometimes !
Same thing happens with me too sometimes ! Not quite often ! I usually lock again, and it behaves normal !
This happens on my phone every time I use Google Music. It doesn't crash anything, it just look unattractive when trying to unlock the phone.
hi, i noticed it too. you can force this glitch by 1.) starting a track in gmusic.
then 2.) go to the homescreen and list all recent opened apps an swype gmusic away.
you will notice that the music continues.
3.) now lock your device by pushing the power key an push it one more time to get to te lockscreen.
On the lockscreen there will be the gmusic widget.
4.) tick "next track " on the gmusic lockscreen widget.
Same thing happening to me on my Galaxy Nexus with CyanogenMod 10.1
Not only Google Music but other players too.
Same thing happens on my SGSII on CyanogenMod 10.1
I see it with Pocket Cast podcast app.
It's a bug in the lockscreen widgets - I have it freeze on me every few days
It's a reported bug.

Star it so it gets more attention.
This seems like a very dumb question, but I can't figure out how to hide the progress bar while playing any local video using the included (stock) Samsung video player app.
I'm rooted, but stock (except for the hotspot mod)
Navigate to gallery, and tap on any video that is stored locally on my sd card (or on internal storage). If I don't touch the screen, everything is fine - video plays beautifully. If I tap on the screen to pause the video, or to drag the slider back/forward (to rewind/fast forward), the progress bar (I think that is what it is called) comes up, and works perfectly. When I un-pause it (or am done rewinding/forwarding), the progress bar doesn't auto-hide (even after a minute or two).
If I change screen orientation (landscape to portrait, or vice versa), the progress bar goes away - but it is kinda stupid to have to do that just to make the progress bar go away.
I checked the settings, and don't see an option to make it auto-hide after 'x' seconds. I can't drag that progress bar down or do anything with it. I find it hard to believe that this is normal behavior (and that nobody else has complained about it), so I hope I'm overlooking something simple.
Bump - anyone?
I have exactly the same problem! I looked on youtube and notice all you have to do is tap the screen and the progress should hide, but it doesn't do it on my phone!
Have you noticed the same thing with the photo gallery also? I mean, the top bar where you can do edits and the bottom where you can scroll to see other pictures...I just can't seem to get rid or hide them!
Any thoughts anyone?

Now that you mention it, yes, I have the same thing on the photo gallery. I hope this is not "normal" behavior...
Interesting, I'm trying all sorts of things, like restarting, uninstalling some apps and such...I don't seem to be able to find the solution!
any other ideas? Its frustrating how I have to rotate and then rotate it back again in video mode to get rid of the progress bar...it just looks silly.
Everyone else Galaxies: they just tap the screen and everything just hides...even in the photo gallery. If you find out anything, please let me know...and I shall do the same

Are you on MF9? (that is the latest update, and that fixed the issue for me)
Edit: You can always install the photosphere camera apk (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340858), and that installs the google gallery app (and video player) along with it. That can play videos and display albums without the annoying progress bar blocking the view.

Hello Everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone who uses this ROM - KOT49H knows if there is a way to get the notifications on the lock screen similar to Liquidsmooth (Which may or not be stock to something else I dont know)
Basically on the lock screen it would have a square icon on the right side of the screen for your music player, new emails, new texts ect and you could slide them out to see more or to unpause your music ect.
Cheers,
T

This isn't a feature you can just get, either the ROM has this feature baked in or it doesn't. And if you are referring to Dan's google edition rom, then I know that he hasn't incorporated that feature into the ROM. Most google edition ROMs will not have features like this in them, you would have to stick to a AOSP ROM for that
Hi All
I have looked everywhere to see if there is anything i may have done but cannot find out how this has happened, it just seems to have disappeared, I use the Samsung Galaxy S4 Music Player app, have been used to changing the track in the lock screen, but lately have noticed that this has disappeared.
I have noticed that in My (Settings / My Device / Lock Screen / Lock Screen Widgets) location, the Favorite Apps or Camera has been grayed out and i am unable to select this to be on or off.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I hope that i am posting this in the right thread, and have tried looking on here to see if anyone else has had the same issue, but either am being stupid or i cannot see it. (Just copied this to the Q&A Section but cannot delete from the General.. )
Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards
on a note of this, I just tried using Deezer and that seems to work okay in the lock screen, has there been an update on the Samsung music app that i am unaware of?
