When I'm listening to music, or more likely a book on my iPhone, I double press the home button to show the basic music controls forward, back, play or pause. Way to often I go to hit pause and accidentally hit one of the other very nearby buttons like skip forward or skip backward. When listening to a book chapter that is 40 minutes long and having no clue where I'm at in the chapter, this can be super annoying. So - is there any way to customize and separate these buttons so that they're not so close to each other? My fingers aren't that fat, the touch separation between these buttons must be about a millimeter. Totally frustrating to lose your place like that. Would be cool if they were far enough away that I could hit the button I want without looking at the phone, or at least the play/pause button was much larger.is there an app that can change these controls, or a way to make a request to Apple?
So on stock lollipop u can long press on music controls and fast forward and also it puts the album art as ur lock screen wallpaper, is there anyway to bring this back?
I understand tap and hold to make the icons jiggle, then drag. Only problem is, I can move them to the right but not to the left--to the home screen. For example, I moved one of the default home screen icons to the second screen, leaving a hole. Now I'm trying to move an icon from the second screen into the hole I created. I can drag to the right and create a new screen, but it will not break through to the left onto the home screen.
Not to sound too picky but does anyone else feel to switch on bluetooth is a pain in the backside, as you have to trudge through a number the menus? Is it possible to move this icon to the home screen? I've checked but i cant seem to find an app that places an icon on the home screen and is linked directly to the iPhone function, does this even exist?
So far, I have had nothing but problems since I upgraded from S3 to S6. I am going through the tedious job of redownloading my S3 apps. Several are duplicated on my Home Screen. I don't want them there, but I can't move them. Apps were easy to move on the S3. Is this a problem with the S6, or has the method of moving apps changed? There is nothing in the User Manual...
I have downloaded Opera Mini to be used as a browser. I find that the Blackberry Browser does not allow viewing on many of the sites I wish to open. I have downloaded Opera Mini, but how do i now move the browser's logo to my home screen?
My Defy has an odd problem whereby every so often I am not able to move apps around the home screen, or add new ones. If I click and hold on an existing app icon, or an app in the drawer, then I get the vibration as normal and I can drag the app around the screen but:I never get the green highlight showing new places where I can put the icon, andI can't drag to another page of the home screen: the side bars never turn green to let me flip to the next page.I also can't resize widgets like the clock or weather when it gets in this state.The only way I've found to clear this fault is to reboot the phone, which is a bit of a pain.
I have a Curve 8530. How to remove something from a folder to home screen...I downloaded a new theme which allows more icons on home screen and would like to put a program from a folder there for faster access.
I know there are a few applications for using the IPod music controls outside of the actual application, i.e. from the lock screen. None of the ones that I've seen though have the scrolling option. Does anyone know of an application that does this?
So, I've had my G3 (D855) for about a month now, and I noticed that the lock screen music controls would only appear while some songs are playing, but not the other. When the controls are not there, my bluetooth devices (headsets and car controls) cannot control the music player either.
If you put your finger on top of the home button, and move it to the left, right, up or down, will it move slightly?This reminds me of the sleep/wake button coming from factory stiff, but after using it for a while it becomes loose.
Easiest way to control music/podcast audio while driving and having another app open?
I like to listen to a podcast during my commute (using Podcast Addict for now), usually while Waze is the active app on the screen, but I've been having trouble pausing the playback or hitting fast forward (to go through commercials) while driving. Seems like the controls on the notification bar are too small and there is no skip ahead button there. Maybe I'm just getting used to my new phone, but I'm coming from a Windows Phone where it seemed a lot easier/safer to do.
Anything that can make the controls overlap the Waze app? Or make buttons larger and more useful after flicking on the notification bar?
I saw a video on the 2015 Moto X that showed music controls through the active display. It looks awesome and its one of the few things I'd love for the 2014 X to have.
The music controls on my N8's earphones have suddenly stopped responding when playing music. Actually, ALL the keys aren't working, Volume, answer call and forth. Tried changing the settings under Accessory settings without any luck.Really frustrating to have to unlock your phone just to skip a song.
The music player controls keep coming up on the lock screen. I am never using the music player but after some time, the controls start appearing on the lock screen.
I have installed the "stop the music" app and that removes the controls, but they keep re-appearing. A reboot of the phone also doesn't help.
My Nokia X6 has stopped displaying the music control keys (ffd, play, rew) in the home screen.The radio controls are missing as well. Anyone has an idea how to fix?
I have a Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and am currently using the Contacts Bar Home Screen Theme, which I find very useful.
However, I would also like to have my calendar visible on the home screen, as is possible on the Shortcuts Bar Theme. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a way to have both the Contacts Bar and the Calendar visible on the Home Screen.
When i try to sync music from my itunes to my iphone, the phone syncs but the music doesnt. In the music tab, if i try and tick the sync music box, it says all my iphone music will be deleted, so i am afraid to do it. I have tried to manually manage music, but then it comes up with a dialogue box, saying my phone isnt synced with this itunes, and all phone contents will be replaced. I have already got alot of music on the phone, but want to add more to it, from cd's i have imported into itunes.
I have a Nokia Unlimited Account for the Nokia Music app on my Lumia 800. I would like to move my downloaded music from the app/phone to my MacBook Pro.
