Lockscreen wallpaper remains

Lockscreen wallpaper remains

Hi,

 

I have a Nexus 6 with Android 5.0.1 and Spotify 1.9.0.1273

When I close Spotify the latest album cover of the song I was listening remains as the lockscreen wallpaper. Is anybody else having this issue?

 

Thanks,

David

Not seeing this behaviour on my M8 running GPE. Have you tried a clean install?

I got the same problem on my nexus 5 (android 5.0.1) .
A restart does solve the problem.
Also swiped the Spotify app from my open app list.
Still the image is visible.

I have the same issue, Nexus 6, Android 5.0.1 as well.

 

When I close Spotify from the lock screen, the wallpaper shows that it went back to normal. However, the next time the lock screen is shown, the wallpaper is back to being the album art of the last song that played on Spotify.

 

Of course, if I restart the phone, the wallpaper goes back to normal, but the point is to be able to go back to normal without rebooting.

Do you have a headset control app such as JAYS installed? In my guide linked previously I state apps like this can cause this behaviour.

I realise this is an old thread, but is anyone still having this problem and/or found a reliable fix? Is it a Spotify thing or an Android thing?

 

Using Spotify on my work phone (Samsung S5 / Lollipop), I can't have album art staying on the screen!
