I'm also facing this problem with gingerbread. I created a costumized music widget and I use that service to control music and get track infos. It works fine on 2.1 and 2.2 because the service com.android.music.MediaPlaybackService is exported.
See manifest file in sorce code. ----------- Froyo : <service android:name="com.android.music.MediaPlaybackService" android:exported="true" /> : --------- Gingerbread : <service android:name="com.android.music.MediaPlaybackService" android:exported="false" /> : ----------- I don't want to make a new music playback service. So, android team, is it possible another app use that service?? //Dennix On 21 dez 2010, 06:38, Jaumard <jimmy.aum...@gmail.com> wrote: > There is no way to do this in gingerbread? > > On 20 déc, 21:51, Mark Murphy <mmur...@commonsware.com> wrote: > > > Please understand that this is not part of the Android SDK.
