I guess the Lock Screen (full) player was removed in this release? I really liked that feature, and can't find it in settings anywhere.
I have a Galaxy S7.

3.0 is a rewrite so nothing was "removed".
In newer versions of android google no longer allows activities to be started from the background which is required for the custom lockscreen

I don't remember if I asked this some weeks ago, but i couldn't find the post from me and neither a trello card. Would be nice to be able to play a Playlist upside down (so last added tracks play first) and/or simply add an option to switch the queue upside down. Greets

It is on Android 8.0.0 I looked through the Phone App settings and the GMMP settings as well.
Thanks

no. 2.x targets an older version of android. I did not want to waste my time rewriting something that google was phasing out which is why 3.0 doesnt have it even for older versions of android. GMMP classic is available on the play store if that feature is critical for you

Alright, GMMP Classic will work well for me. I installed it and back to "usual". I guess the Unlocker is still active. Thanks for making older versions available and the constant development as well.
For using the app "hands free" while driving, and phone in a cradle, having the full app display while locked just works very nicely with swiping to change tracks, etc.
I'm guessing the Classic app is at a dead end, no updates for it?

Ah, so potentially Classic may be defunct when google enforces that, or that may not effect my current device (Android 8)?
Keep Screen On, could work too, but I think it saves a little battery to be on the black lock screen. Probably not enough to matter, especially if it's plugged in/charging in cradle anyway.

The app still SHOULD work as is

I don't know...it seems the scanner is not really working. I have a complete database....now I'm updated my player with a new album....a manual scan results in no activity...I can see the entry "scan" but nothing happens. No new album found. In past I opened the folder, picked the album for playing and then the database entry is visible... yeah if you havent noticed there is a trend with scanner complaints that i cannot reproduce you are seeing the scan notification but its not adding anything? edit: gonemadmusicplayer.blogspot.com/p/scanner-not-finding-all-music.htmledit 2: the scanner is not ran in 3.0 as you navigate through the folders like 2.x did Correct, I can see the scan notification for a second (it's really a short time) but no tracks added (mabye the scanner does not make a storage re-search). After this I test the result via database browsing but no album / artist / track added.... THEN I'm going to the folder section, I navigate to the artist / album and pick the first track for replaying.... after this I'm going back to artist / genre etc. view @database section and then I can find the new album added to the database.vNow it's visible @database and after gmmp restart, too. I don't know if it's a viewing issue or a scanning issue, but I never changed the settings for database / paths or other. Maybe a whole database re-creation / indexing will fix the issue....

Sounds like its just not being scanned. All the views auto update when things in the database change. Since you are able to get them to add via playing it sounds like you have a nomedia file somewhere in a parent folder thats preventing them to scan in with a regular/auto scan.

Okay, new HW player, new luck My old device FiiO M11 has Android 7. My new device Hiby R6 2020 has Android 9 and ALL my issues I reported gone (non working effects / database trouble etc.). It seems gmmp 3 is working fine with latest Android versions but not with version 7 (many HiRes player are based on Android 7). I don't know if you will supprt these guys... but I'm satisfied now. btw. A BIG thanks to you for gmmp + support!

glad to hear that. My guess is their android 7 version had a lot more custom modifications in it which caused the unexpected issues you've been seeing. As newer versions of android come out.. there is less the 3rd party manufacturers need to modify.
I do test on android 7 devices, but the main one I use (moto e4) is pretty close to stock android

I have two wishes... 1. Is it possible to increase the steps of balance - from 5% to 1% per step? I need a little bit more than 5% but 10% ist too much for me.... 2. From time to time I use the extra bass setting; in this case I placed several buttons @now playing view, but I cannot find this kind of effect for button customizing. Is it possible to implement a link for all effects directly for button customizing? btw. It's more an on / off button for an effect.... thanks
