Whenever I play music via walkman or Google play music, I have no widget on lockscreen to play/pause music. Not only this, I can't even access my other widgets on lockscreen. Any solution or fix for this?
By the way, I'm on .67 firmware.

After finding a solution on Sony-mobile forums, I almost closed my google search results tab, just before spotting a result to this post. Thought I'd check out if I can help. So it seems. Maybe you already fixed it, im still gonna say this
SmartKey app seems to be the problem. Check if u have it and uninstall it. Then the widget should show up when playing music.
If not, another solution may be to clear data on the lockscreen app and FC it. (advice from Sony themselfs, which didn't work for me, but hey what else can you try )
FYI: There's no stock permanent (staying even when not playing) widget for your lockscreen, but PlayStore has a Walkman Widget app which gives you this, if you really want it.
Hope this works for you.

i've been really excited at the idea of ditching my mp3 player and only carrying my phone. usually it will play one song, but then program will lock up after that and eventually require a force close. it seems to happen in different roms as well. BUT it also happens in my sound and display settings when i try to increase or decrease the notification volume in alarm settings or when i try to increase the alarm volume. I'm pretty much afraid of any slider options. I'm sure others have had this problem, i just want to know if there's a quick fix or its just a problem with the o.s.
if it helps i am rooted. i thought it was my processor clock settings being too low, but it happens on performance mode as well. i am using the fascinate music player too, but i don't think it matters. thanks.

I'm having the same problem here using the Music Player that comes with SyndicateROM and WinAmp. I'm using Eclair (SyndicateROM) with the DI18 modem and have never had this problem before. Even if I go into Astro and try to play the file that way, it still will only play one song.
If you need any information just let me know.
I'm on stock just did one click root. Native player worked fine for me... No problems whatsoever, multi tasking was hit or miss but pretty damn good, hard to overdo it and stop the music for me....
Make sure u guys aren't, or haven't manually removed the DRM apk files. This is known to cause audio probs

Any more specific than that? I know there was a workaround at one point which touted removing the DRM apks to increase battery life.

Didn't help. I even did a Factory Reset, but still my problem remains. Anything else I can do?
I have a similar issue, maybe it will help Paolonicus. When I Freeze (via TB) or disable Google search (in App manager)and or the Google search widget none of the voice inputs will work they all crash my phone.
Anyone know how I can get rid of the Google search bar widget without disabling my voice to text feature?
Sorry to hijack but it looks like the OP solved his problem.
I just updated my YouTube app and noticed it removed the YouTube widget. Anyone else notice this?
Gone!
Yes, same here. YouTube Widget is gone on my Nexus 5 running stock 4.4.4. It's not even listed in the list of widgets anymore.
@Maris_ just updated the app on my phone to check and yeah your right it has vanished.
I ain't ganna update my Tablet Youtube App until they fix that. I dont get what they get by getting rid of it - Stupid decision.
Same here. I've been looking for a solution on Google but no luck...

BTW for everyone wondering whats happened ... @ChuckeeDroid @Maris_
I found out that Google have removed the Widget for the foreseable future. Reason behind it was Google claim less than 1% of youtube hits were via the widget so they have decided to get rid of it completley with no intention of returning it. Shame.
[No Widget] , Uninstall updates in settings/apps/YouTube or here is last version apk.
Guys, everybody who wants the widget back can do this 2 ways..
1. Go to settings, then app manager or applications, then click YouTube, then click uninstall updates.... Voila, you will get an older version of YouTube with the widget for your home screen.
2. If you want a more recent version, here is the apk. ver. 5.9.0.10
I attached it here, just make sure in developer settings, third party apps is checked off.. hope this helps..... Im using it.

Probably wont be able do anything unless you root, only thing really is maybe downloading a 3rd party lockscreen on google play store.

Hello everyone,
I'm sorry if my english isn't good but I try my best.
I need a little help here. Several days ago, I updated my A520 to the newest firmware, things is, I forgot to notice the firmware version but I will attach the ss.
And.. I found that my weather widget isn't working properly especially 'the background widget'. If I use the default theme, it work properly but if I use several themes that I got from theme store (Samsung theme) the background widget 'on / off' is not working. I mean whether I turn the widget background on or off, it will show the background. It's not a big deal, but, does anyone have the same issues? And does anyone knows how to turn it back? Any help will be appreciate.
And once again sorry for my bad english.

Hi, you have to erase data and cache within the app "forecast weather". Go to settings---apps---forecast weather---storage---and clean data and cache
