Android MediaPlayer SeekTo workaround

Question

I am creating a very simple application for a media player. I would like to resume a song from a SeekTo position that I captured using getCurrentPosition. However, seekTo does not start from the position that I took, but from the very beginning.

Code for fixing the current position, pause and change the button text Press to resume

int media_length = mediaplayer.getCurrentPosition();
    Toast.makeText(this,"media length is"+media_length, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    mbutton.setText("Click to Resume");
    mediaplayer.pause();

Search code To fix a position, start and change the button text to press the "Pause" button

    mediaplayer.seekTo(media_length);
    mediaplayer.start();
    mbutton.setText("Click to Pause");

A few posts are already related to this, but they seem to be reporting an error in Android. Link: MediaPlayerTo search does not work and is there a workaround for this? appreciate any help.

. ...

public void forwardSong() {
    if (mPlayer != null) {
        int currentPosition = mPlayer.getCurrentPosition();
        if (currentPosition + seekForwardTime <= mPlayer.getDuration()) {
            mPlayer.seekTo(currentPosition + seekForwardTime);
        } else {
            mPlayer.seekTo(mPlayer.getDuration());
        }
    }
}

MediaPlayer.OnSeekCompleteListener.

: SystemClock.sleep(200), onSeekComplete(MediaPlayer arg0) , seekTo .

 mMediaPlayer.setOnSeekCompleteListener(new MediaPlayer.OnSeekCompleteListener() {
        @Override
        public void onSeekComplete(MediaPlayer arg0) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onSeekComplete() current pos : " + arg0.getCurrentPosition());
            SystemClock.sleep(200);
            mMediaPlayer.start();
        }
    });
    try {
        mMediaPlayer.seekTo(mCurrentPos);
    } catch (IllegalStateException e){
        Log.d(TAG, e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
    }

Try it, it works

   videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
        @Override
        public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
            mp.start();
            mp.setOnSeekCompleteListener(new MediaPlayer.OnSeekCompleteListener() {
                @Override
                public void onSeekComplete(MediaPlayer mp) {
                    mp.start();
                }
            });

        }
    });
