Cool! I also want to suggest if possible allowing it have an "auto start" for the music app when plugged in. I know that several other music apps already have this, but I personally went back to the stock TouchWiz music player just because of the controls in the notification bar.

I will do my best:)
thanks for your advice!

It doesn't stay in memory? There are times it doesn't work automatically when I plug in the headset. Do I have to press the icon everytime before I plug in?
