So there I am, getting in my car in the morning, ready to drive to work, I turn it on, get ready to pull out
OH MY GOODNESS SOME TECHNO I HAD ON THE NIGHT BEFORE IS AUTO BLASTING OVER BLUETOOTH
Yeah, that's the "feature" of having bluetooth media autoplay. Besides turning off all bluetooth media features is there a way to prevent Winamp or whatever other stock media player is on the phone from blasting away as soon as it connects?

Did you try clearing defaults for the applications in the applications menu?

No defaults set for Winamp or any other music application that I can find.
It's just when the Bluetooth connects it starts to play. Mine does it with Cyanogen, wife's phone does it with the stock Sprint Sense rom.
So I guess this is just one of those feature/bugs of Android that has no fix?
My dual BT headset turns on the stock HTC player whilst playing threw Winamp. It does this when I press play after a paused interruption. I'm using misfits speedy Rom and it happens to me. I can't set a default player either. Well i tried.

Has anyone solved this problem. It is rather annoying. I don't want to have to remove all the mp3's from my phone just to stop it from doing this.
I like to use Pandora for my radio, but everytime I turn on my car I have to take the time to tell the music player to knock it off...

Hi all.
I'm trying out Tasker, and my question is this:
I'm trying to get a profile that starts actually playing music (does not open the app, but plays the music), but when I try to use Music Control or Music Play it plays music from the "Play Music" player of Google, and not the "Music" app of HTC.
Anybody knows how I can play music straight from the "Music" app?
Thanks!
In app management, go to play music and select clear defaults.
Next time you play a music file it will ask which player to use.

Tried it, did not solve my problem. my problem is that is detects it as default music player, not default music player to play selected files. I need somehow to change the default action of the media controls of the phone.
Hi,
First things first. I'm running JB touchwiz and rooted.
here's my system info if you need it. http://imgur.com/YQ2rILN.png
So, here's my problem. I am using two different players (technically 3 if you count pandora which I don't use very much) - PowerAmp (paid) and Google Play Music. The reason I have 2 players is because I have way more music than I can store on my phone which is where google play is nice, but I also like listening to FLAC files -google play only plays up to 320 - I also like having music on the device in case I lose 4g signal, and I like poweramp's interface much better. Because I'm using two players, they often compete for which one plays. I use my phone to stream music to my car stereo and alarm clock via bluetooth, and when I connect it to either device OR to my headphones via wired connection, poweramp overrides google play and starts playing whatever I listened to last, even if I killed the program previously or was listening to google music last. Basically, when I connect anything, it defaults to poweramp and not Google play regardless of which I was listening to. I want this the other way around, since I use google play much more often since I have so much more music on it. It's endlessly frustrating.
Now for the question - Is there a way to reverse this, so that when I connect my headphones or stereo it will default to playing from google music and not poweramp? Or, even better, is there a way to integrate google music's streaming ability in to poweramp somehow?
Oh, one last thing. I am wondering if there is a way to make PowerAmp and Google Music show on the touchwiz lock screen, with controls? Currently neither do, even though I have the option enabled in PowerAmp.
Thanks! :laugh:
I haven't used TouchWiz in a long time, but I know with AOSP, there is an option regarding what the phone does when a headset is connected. It's at System settings > Sound > Launch music app for AOSP users.
Seems like you could fix it there. Before this option became available, I was using Tasker to accomplish the same thing.

There doesn't seem to be any such option in that area. I did just think of something, Is there a way to replace the lock screen that doesn't suck? i like stock aosp lock screen better than touchwiz, I just like touchwiz for the guestures and shortcuts and such.
Use tasker
In power amp there is a setting to turn off the auto play when connected.

I can't help with your priority question, but I can tell you that with TW, you lose lockscreen music control ability. I know it's dumb, but it is what it is.

Hey that sounds like a very good idea. I just need to learn to use Tasker. Please feel free to elaborate.
I'm having this same problem. I have a Verizon S3, and have a tasker profile set up so that when I connect my phone to a power source it will automatically turn on bluetooth, connect to my car, launch google play, and start playing the last played song.
The problem is it launches Play Music, but starts playing Poweramp. Play music is what's on my screen, but when I swipe the notifications down PowerAmp is playing the music. I've checked everything and it should be set up correctly, but this still happens.
Any Ideas?

Have you checked the headset settings in poweramp to make sure no auto resumes are selected?

Yeah, Checked and removed the selections for that. And nothing in the Tasker profile is connected to Poweramp, yet it continually plays music from it...

What about respond to headset controls? Poweramp resumes playing on my car when I connect it to Bluetooth if I have that option enabled too

Hi,
I have been enjoying my music using my Plantronics 903+ Bluetooth headset and it was working perfectly with the Samsung Stock music Player.
Even after I turn off my BT headset and then turn on, and clicking start/pause button from the BT headset, the song which i had listened earlier would start again. Also i love the Samsung's Music Square.
But suddenly I saw Google Music being installed in my phone and it had become my default music player. Now whenever i click on the BT start button, the Google Music app gets initiated.
I am unable to delete Google Music and unable to reset my Samsung Stock Music player as default music player. Is this the case with anyone and how did you reset your settings. Could anyone help me.
Kindly note, i have not rooted my phone.
Thanks.
Go to app manager and open google music. Then click clear defaults.

I'm using poweramp as my main music player but I'm having problems because when I install a game the music player adds the sound files to the song list. Is there a way to avoid this problem?
It's really annoying to be listening to some tunes an a car sound suddenly appears

I think poweramp can sort music by folder to avoid your problem
Go into the settings, and manually select the folders you want it to scan for music. By default, it scans the entire /sdcard hierarchy (as you noticed).
