[Q] Keep lockscreen from timing out? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Wanting to use the lock screen music controls. When plugged in, music controls stay on. (most likely due to setting to keep backlight on while charging) I want the music controls to stay on when not plugged in. Currently it time's out after about 30seconds. Then I have to press the power button again. Want music control to be available when music is playing. Anyone have any ideas? Don't care about power drain, This feature is for when I'm working out/running. Can't find anything that adjusts this.

settings>security>automatic lock
lets you change that, although only up to a delay of 30 minutes.

Volume buttons to change music track?

Hello,
Not sure if this is something at all possible BUT I have a mount in my car for my HD and connect my phone to the stereo. Now, if I am driving and the screen goes to 'Sleep' mode, it can be kind of cumbersome to turn the screen back on just to change a track.
I was wondering if it was at all possible to put a code in place for the buttons that WHEN the screen goes to sleep and IF Windows Media Player is playing for example, that the volume keys can change tracks up or down instead of the volume?
I know someone will say 'well just turn sleep mode off' but this is not something I want to do.
Thanks in advance.
Hi, you could use AE Button Plus to map the Volume Rocker to up/down arrows, then slide to the music tab in TF3D, play the muisc and set screen display off.
To play next/prev song, just press the rocker key once.

Removing audio controls from lock screen

I'm using Ice Cold Sandwich ROM on the Desire HD and loving it, but the audio controls on the lockscreeen are annoying me.
I often don't wear a watch, so I take the phone out of my side pocket to check the time and while I slip it back into my pocket I accidentally skip the track I'm listening to by hitting the backwards or forwards button by accident.
So, how do I make it so that there are no audio controls on the lock screen?
I use a pattern lock but I don't unlock the phone to check the time, just quickly hit the power switch to turn the screen on.
It's especially annoying if I'm listening to a 2 hour podcast and I'm half way through it, because I then have to fiddle about trying to get back to the part I was listening to.
Cheers.

Media Volume

Hello,
I don't know if it's just me but has anyone ever experienced volume increasing and decreasing when switching applications?
Whenever I'm listening to music on Poweramp I would normally need to set the volume to 85 percent in order to have a comfortable listening experience, when I switch to YouTube it gets deafening loud! When I switch back to Poweramp it goes wayyyy down... is this a feature if so can it be disabled?
Thanks
Not certain, but it could be related to the Media Volume Limiter? It's under Sounds, Volume, then hit the 3 dot menu. Adjust the limiter or turn it off. Not sure if it would help or not.

Android Oreo Lockscreen Music Notification Controls

So ever since the android oreo update, the notifications control for any music app keeps the lockscreen on. Google play music, Spotify, and Pandora all keep the screen on, if I just skip, pause or play any music, the screen never shuts off, I have to manually turn it off with the power button. This is really annoying as it unnecessarily drains battery when the screen doesn't turn off.
Anyone else experience this? Anyone know how to fix this?

app to control Volume with the Ring

I am kind of perplexed about the Media app built into the Galaxy Watch. It works fine, but on the display there is a Foward and Back track button, but the ring controls this also, why do I have to click the volume button to control the volume! Why cant there either be a button on the main screen of that app or let me use the ring!
I have been looking all over for an app that would let me control the volume with the Ring but to no avail on the Samsung store. Any ideas?
would be super helpful! then you would have one screen control everything!
Because it makes more sense to think that normally most people the first thing they do is press play and set the volume they want. Once set the thing they are going to use more often is the next and previous track and not the volume control.
You may think "but why?"
These days most of the audio we get on apps like Spotify, iTunes and others don't have big variations on loudness from one track to another and/or they include settings in the app so you can set them on to normalize the volume, that includes the Samsung music app, making it easier as you don't need to be turning it up and down each time a new song starts.
It could be done? Yes.
Will be? Idk, and really don't care that much because I use more the widget than the app and volume control it's really easy to access when needed in both.
You should try to make the suggestion to give you the option to configure it that way on the Samsung forums or in the galaxy store on the app.
