Volume bar disappeared

[andrew120]

Hi all,

After updating to Mango, I experienced something I can't explain.

First, after playing with different features including searching with Bing, I end up having music player in my volume bar(the one displayed when clicking the phone volume controls).
I wasn't able to get rid of the music player.

Today, I think I switched off and on my phone and the sound player disappeared from volume bar. What's also disappeared is the volume bar. It is now only showing numbers 24/30

I have a Samsung Focus v1.3

Anyone else is experiencing the lack of the volume bar?

It's not a big thing but I am wondering why is it gone, I liked that.

it's a Mango feature
I noticed the new volume controls as soon as I updated to mango

Yep. Its a feature, and one I prefer at that.

You can't get rid of the music player at the top unless you restart the phone. Since it's an integrated "app" it always runs in the background. That's why the player was gone after the restart. You can only pause music, never stop it. But that was like that before Mango too.

Yea if you had played a song with NoDo it would stick around too. It's just more noticeable now. I like it!

I prefer the numbers over the bar. Also did they raise it to 30 from 20?

I'm pretty sure it went up to 30 before Mango.

I am still on 7392 and it goes up to 30.

They changed that whole interface. And I love it all except for one issue: they got rid of the song timer (the number that tells you how long the song is - whatever that's called). They really need to bring that back for when I'm rewinding or forwarding through a song - I liked being able to do from the lock screen instead of going into the music hub.

The best thing though? THE BUTTONS (play/pause and skip) ARE BIGGER!!!! Great for adjusting during my workout or in the car.
