Screen Lock Widget help

anxiousfboy — Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:51:19 GMT

The screen flickers and then I cannot control the lock screen widget. But the main problem is I cannot add music widget to the lock screen as in the list of widgets that I can add it does not show walkman
Thus to do any thing with music including volume control or play or pause I have to unlock the phone through my pattern lock.

As far as i know, the widget automatically shows up when you use the walkman. It isnt one of those widgets that you can permanently use on the lock screen. Just try playing a song then you should see it take over the main screen instead of the clock on your lock screen.

Test this and see if it works?

what if you are playing music, can you see the widget?

No.

Just a flickering widget like its searching for something.

I've had similar issue on Xperia Z Ultra, it's firmware bug which was solved in newer update

Have the Sony people even acknowledged this thing as a bug?
Are they aware?
