[Q] Reacting to multi-buttons wired headphones - General Questions and Answers

I understand that signals/ resistance from the volume control buttons (1.525-1.495 V for volume down, and 1.619-1.587 V for volume up) are currently unable to be recognized through the Android framework's software. How does Android recognize multibutton headphones signals? Is there any documentation for developers to recognise broadcast signals?
Thanks

Milestone2 with apple earphone

I got MA850 in-ear headset for my itouch recently, and tried to connect it my Milestone 2 in the hope of getting better playback. I've heard in other forum that Apple earphone with 3 buttons behaves like the stock one-button headset, but it's not the case with Milestone 2.
The middle button does not work at all. The plus/minus buttons seems to have the same effect, just like long-pressing stock earphone's controller - they activates the player and make it jump to the next track, and they can also end a call. The mic is working.
Try PowerAMP of the Market i've seen it has a "Headset Button Config " i dont have a headset with buttons so i never tested it.
Power Amp can configure headset buttons

[Q] Headset Control Buttons Locked

Weird problem. Usually the Next/Previous buttons on the headset can let you move tracks backward/forward when you're playing music or listening to podcast/audio books. Some apps allow you to reassign them becoming fast forward/backward. The new Nexus 5 I just receive, the headset buttons can only do volume up/down, no matter which app I'm using. I don't see anything in system settings.
Anyone has same issue?
I found the same thing. Android support of headphones and accessories is terrible. There's no universal standard for three-button remotes and so far i've only found some Samsung earphones that can even do volume up/down. The rest only do play/pause.

The same headset functions normally on my Nexus 7 and HTH Inspire 4G. Is it possible LG doesn't support headset remote control?

[Q] UE Mini Boom volume control

I use a UE mini boom Bluetooth speaker with my nexus 5. The volume control worked fine with the software that came with the phone. The volume on the phone would follow the volume buttons on the speaker. Since the 4.4.2 update, the volume control seems to be broken. Any way to solve this?

[Q] CarbonRom wired headset controls

Do 3-button headsets work properly on Carbon? Carbon treats a 3-button headset as if it only had one button, so all the button (volume and play/pause) just get treated as a play/pause button. I've tried many headset control apps, but i can't seem to get the volume to raise and lower with the headset volume buttons. Is there any way to fix this?

link multimedia volume and headset volume

In the previous android release (6) multimedia volume and bluetooth headset volume were linked, I better explain, if I raised the volume from bluetooth headphones appeared a popup on the phone with its volume bar,
here is an article that explains better http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/12/11/android-6-0-1-finally-links-bluetooth-and-system-media-volume-settings-but-it-breaks-volume-control-on-many-headsets/
Now with Nougat came back as before, two separate volumes, Phone and bluetooth headset.
Someone knows if they have removed the function or is hidden in some menus (I gave a look but I have found nothing).
thank you
