Hi,
After listening to music sometimes (via Google Play Music), the notification gets stuck.
This is both on the lock screen and the always on display.
On the lock screen, pressing play/pause works, but the icon won't update, so it still displays pause even when it is.
Rebooting the phone works, but of course not ideal.
Don't really think it is a GPM issue since when the phone is unlocked, it's notification is fine
Anyone else have this?

So the way it's supposed to work is that the music screen is supposed to take the place of your datw/time screen on your lock screen if your music is playing. Then when the music app is closed, your lock screen goes back to normal.
It's always wormed that way until a couple days ago. Now my music player is permanently stuck on replacing ym date/time lock screen. I have tried everything. I've killed all tasks, restarted the phone etc....
Any ideas what's going on?
Is there a way to disable lock screen widgets without closing the playing audio.
I listen audio through my bluetooth and keep my phone in my pocket. Currently leaving anything playing keeps a widget on the top of the lock screen. All to frequently I find that I have skipped the song I wanted to hear or have jumped forward 25 minutes in my book. I found a setting in Podcast Addict and that app no longer does it.
I am rooted and using the stock rom. Would screen shots help?
I went ahead and contacted Samsung, the say it cannot be done.
Explain to me in more detail what you mean because I stream music and books, etc.. from my phone all day long and have no issues with it.
As an example, I use NPR One I launch the app, start streaming audio then press the power button to lock and power off the screen. If the power button gets pressed again the lock screen has audio controls. In this case it would only be play/pause and skip. I don't want those controls on the lock screen.
Hello,
I'm using omnirom on my Nexus 5 (5.1.1 nightlies) for about a month and I found some things where I can't say if its a bug or a feature:
1. I'm using bluetooth in my car to play music from my nexus 5. My bluetooth system has a key to play/pause and skip a track. Everytime when I skip to the next track, the display gets active and stays active for the setted display timeout. I couldn't find any setting where to disable this "feature". Before I was on stock and didn't have that problem, it causes high battery drain.
2. If you're in e.g. Whatsapp and press the power button to get your device into standby, the app remains in background and is still active. I cant explain exactly, normally (on stock) when you get in that situation a message, the normal notification sound would be hearable, but here its only the in app notification sound. So it seems that the app isn't in standby and thinks you're looking at your phone. This happens also in Threema, which is not good because you don't recognize when you get a new message. I hope you understand what I mean.
3. When you're in such a messaging app and you get a message, the notification stays in the notification center until you swipe it away or touch on it, so it does not detect wether being in the app in the correct chat or not, it shows it independently.
Otherwise I have no problems, really nice rom!
Hello everyone
I'm having this weird issue with my Nexus 6P (which is afaik on the latest software version) that I did not have with my LG G4 when I had it.
Basically, when I play music from any app (Spotify, Soundcloud, Poweramp, etc), I can't control the music when the screen is shut off and the phone is unlocked.
Let me clarify: I set my phone to not lock automatically when I turn off the screen. I like it that way; there's a 1 min waiting period until it actually locks.
Unfortunately, in that 1-minute waiting period I cannot:
- Adjust the volume using the hardware volume rocker
- Cannot adjust the volume using any sort of headphone control
- Cannot pause or start the music
Until the 1 minute period is over and the device actually locks, or I just turn on the screen and unlock the device.
But this has been very inconvenient, so I want to know what I can do!
Thank you all.
I have the same issue here. It also effect (probably unsurprisingly) control over BT from car radio.
I dont seem to remember this always being the case, only since the last security update I think.
Same issue here... been that way for a week or so now, quite annoying. Restarting the phone doesn't fix it.

I'm getting this too. Anyone find a fix?
Hello, I have the same situation, basically my workaround was to enable the fingerprints setup and have the phone immediately lock with screen off. Then instead of pressing power I trained myself to unlock using either indexes. It is quite fast.
The volume buttons will work off screen only while the phone is truly locked so no smart lock with Bluetooth either; screen off but unlocked doesn't work. I also have problems while driving and using Maps off screen, probably for the same reason.
I filed a bug report with Google, there are a bunch of people with the same problem but this isn't fixed in the monthly updates. I haven't tried the android N preview Good luck!

Up till now, all my galaxy phones had a persistent phone notification, while on a call, right on the lock screen along with other notifications. It had simple buttons for mute/unmute and speaker phone on/off. On the S8, there's no persistent notification for the phone on the lock screen. I've ensured that I don't have the phone app disabled from showing notifications on the lock screen, it's set to show all content. I have to either unlock, or pull down the notification panel and then get to it, which is kind of annoying. Anybody else notice this or is it something with my phone? Just want to check before I attempt a factory reset.
