[Q] Default widget when playing music - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is going to be hard to explain but here I go.
I'm using a kitkat TW rom, by default, when you lock it and unlock it you get the clock and message original from galaxy and you can just swipe anywhere to unlock it.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you are playing music, by default, it doesn't show the clock and message, instead it scrolls to the right and shows you the music controls.
So, we could say that it passes from showing screen 3 to show screen 4.
The problem is that in my phone it passes from showing screen 3 to show screen 2, which doesn't contain any widget. Hence, I have to swipe to the right twice to get the music controls.
Is there any way to edit the default "lock screen" that it shows when the phone is playing or not playing music?
Thanks in advance

put a widget on the screen 2

As logical as your suggestion seems, the music controls widget cannot me moved from screen nor added in a new one.
The idea is to get those controls when I unlock the device, not another widget

ok, if your lock screen have an empty pages, try to remove them
just keep the home & music lock screen

Getting Rid of Stock Lockscreen Slider? Widget Locker

The Android 4.2.2 Lockscreen Widget functionality is till behind Widget Locker. But unlike my Samsung S3, on my new Nexus 7, I can't seem to find a way to remove the stock lock slider. In Settings > Security I have the Lock Screen set to: None I don't see an option in Widget Locker to hide/remove it. What a waste of screen real estate!

You have something wrong with your unit. That is nothing like the standard lock screen. Are you running a custom rom? I have the Security Lock screen set to 'None' and I just see my home screen when I turn on the screen.

The bottom half is stock, the top half is Widget Locker!!
Couple of tips for you?:
Try wiping your cache/dalvik.
Set lockscreen to non.
Uninstall and install Widget Locker.
Hope one of these helps !!
Duh. Just had to go into the stock locks screen editor and long press and drag the stock slider to trash.

Smart remote

Hi
Anybody know what am doing wrong to get the widget of the smart remote on the lock screen?
it in Smart Remote app setting, it should say "Always show remote control on lockscreen" some like that.
I have done that. As well as the application reset, clear cache and date.
Yep I've got the same problem but the funny thing is it DID work for the 1st few days I had the phone.
I'm pretty sure I lost the lock screen widget when my phone updated to ANE2.
I've tried both smart remote and WatchON and neither widgets appear on the lockscreen.
They do both work on the notification panel though
It works fine for me on an ne2 base. Apart from having it toggled on have you selected what device you want it to use

Dumb question where do you select which room for the widget? I can't find it
There is solution for my one. Open smart remote, go to remote screen buttons and leave app by pressing the "home button" instead the "back"
I asked developers few times never told the word

Lock screen music widget problem

I have a problem with my lock screen music widget. 2 days ago it was OK and now when I play music from my phone and I press the power button to turn on the screen, it show this screen instead of the widget(watch the picture below)... And then I have to swipe from right to left to find the widget, and every time i change the track, it goes again to the same screen(with the "add widget" button) and then i have to swipe again.
Any ideas how to fix it?

It looks like it's a widget problem, try uninstalling & disabling any lockscreen widget to see if that will rectify the problem.

I did disable the Multiple widgets from lock screen now it's ok, but i don't have the music widget. So, now, when i play music and press the power button to turn on the scren, the background is the album cover, but i see the clock/weather widget(normal). So i think the problem is on the multiple widget/music widget. If i don't find any solutions, i will reset my device and see if it works.

Smart Swipe Gestures?

How do i get the half circle, spinning quick shortcut wheel to appear on the bottom left of my phone? My wife and i both have the USA T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus and her phone is the only one that does it. If you swipe upwards diagonally, from the bottom left or right corner, then the quick access wheel appears. This only works on my wifes phone. We both got them at the same time, unboxed them together and she doesnt have the smart swipe app installed from the Galaxy store, but yet her phone does it without problems. There has to be a setting on my phone that can be changed to get this to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
i have a picture i took of her screen on my phone but not sure how to share it on here.

It's not a Samsung pre-installed app. You can read here and find what is yours

Thank you for the information. So it sounds like my wife must have an app installed on her phone that contains this feature, yes/no? Second, whatever apps contain this feature, it looks like everone is trying to get rid of it. That option wont appear on my phone because i dont have any apps that support that swipe gesture?

Pocket wake

Damn thing woke twice in my pocket, first weather, I locked the screen with the side button put in my pocket start grilling again moving around I pulled my phone out of the pocket to take a picture and the google phone app is up with a bunch of nines pressed.
Long time ago I was doing yard work which just brought this to my attention moving around I hear music and in the middle of cornfields I hear the music coming from my pocket, damn phone opened itself and start playing the music player.
Touch protection was enabled and still was.
I just disabled on display screen and double tap to wake screen I'm tired of it.
And I removed the phone shortcut on my lock screen so I don't know how the phone app popped up with the dial pad.
