MX Player is the best app ever! I really mean that. I believe it can still be better. Can you add this function to the next version?:
"Rewind the music using the headphone". In apple phones if you press the pause button two times that is going to rewind music. Samsung phones do not have that. What if you add something like that to MX Android? That is going to obviate the need for lousy apps like Headset Button Controller and Headset Droid.
Thank you.
This is a good idea; added it to the feature requests list.
As an adjustment, 2 presses would be NEXT, and 3 presses would be REWIND & PREVIOUS (rewind to 0:00 first, then again to jump to previous file if within first 10s of the current file).
That would be awesome my friend! I think, though, that it would be best if we could choose what to do with each command. For instance, if two presses would be NEXT "by default" I ought to be able to change that to toggle rewind if I use it more freuently.

Hello,
I've bought a pair of these frosty bad boys: [I can't post url's yet, but go to Amazon and seach for Skullcandy Full Metal Jacket Chrome For I-Phone] (excellent headphones, fyi) for my HD2
It has a microphone with remote which allows me to answer calls and hang up and when listening to music allows me to play and pause the music, but nothing else. On an iphone (I have tested them), I can also double-press the button to skip forward a track, something which doesn't work with the music player on the HD2 - a double-press will call the last dialled number.
Does anyone know a way, or know where to look in the registry, or a hack, cab, tweak ANYTHING to let me change the double-press action?
Double press to skip forward, and treble-press to skip back would be ideal!
Any help appreciated!
Thanks
help??!
If it's a wired headset you can use this program:

Excellent! Thank you very much!
Hi everyone, does the omnia 7 headset have a controller integrated to adjust volume and fast forward or backward music?
If not are there other headsets that are compatible and can do that?
It can adjust volume but no music control unfortunately...
Thats not really true.
You have three buttons:
"-","+" (for volume) and a third one.
One click on this button will pause/unpause
Two clicks will skip 1 track forward (back is not an option)
If the music is paused you can click and hold to start a voice action to call someone.
"If the music is paused you can click and hold to start a voice action to call someone."
Thanks ! I will try this but it sounds strange... I would like to "voice action" without having first my music playing... Anyway thanks for the tips because I was wondering how to use voice action with my headset

No thats not what I meant
If there is no music on and you tap and hold then you can make a voice action to call someone.
Sorry for explaining it so unclear
that's so awesome, thanks
i will use the headset now
but i find that you don't have to pause the music..if you hold it down, it will pause for you and resume after!

Cool thanks for the explanation, my one comes on Monday - can't wait.
Moving one track forward is all I need (play music shuffled all the time)

three click replays the current track from the beginning. shame, i was hoping it would take me to the previous track.
normal behaviour on all player. 3 click mean previous button. do it once and it takes you to the beginning of the track. do it again and it takes you to previous track
Three clicks takes you to beginning of current track, 3 clicks again (reasonably quickly - like within the first 5 secs of a track) takes you to previous.
Dammit - this came up twice - see below

Not quite. 3 Clicks with a track like half way through takes you to beginning of that track. Three clicks within first 5 secs of a song takes to previous track (so you just 3 clicks to beginning then 3 clicks to previous.
so lets say, just like the iphone..thats awesome! will buy a new headphone then. used to listen to music on iphone with beats studio, but that thing is just ****
anyone know of a good inline remote that works with the phone apart from the on with the headpohnes that come with it? I have jabra clipper that works very well but i have to keep rembering to charge it so a inline remote would be good anyone know of one that wokrs
I'm using the Headset that was shipped with the HTC 7 Trophy as i lost my original headset and could not find any other headset with all the functions working.
"RC E160" is the HTC Part number.
Thanks im really after one that lets me use my own headphones like my jabra clipper. Problem with that is the battery in it only last 5 hours
I was so happy after I found out the RC can switch tracks, but the heaphones are so crappy on Omnia 7 that I would just use them for emergency ... no mid range frequencies at all!
these samsung headphones are a rip off! its been like 3 months and guess what? one speaker has stopped working and now the other is breaking up..jeez. I cant believe these manufacturers, they expect us to pay like £20+ on a new headphone, with its weak, flimsy thread like wire..no wonder they screw up. They need to give it a thicker double wiring.
Amy recommendations on a headphone ?
using blackbeat from alteclansing (bluetooth a2dp)

I use a Jabra BT620s, works great if you're into music (its a little bulky for just phone calls ) Works via Bluetooth (A2DP)
Edit: doh, just realized that by now the 620s is an older model, not sure if it's still for sale :-(
Apologies if this has been answered before but I am looking to have the controls of my music player accessible when the phone is in sleep. I had that option when I was using the unrooted version (Android 2.1) and Sense. Now I have C6 and the controls are not accessible when the phone is asleep. I have to hit menu, slide to wake it and then click on pause, previous and next (in the music player controls). Its handy to have these controls just show up when I hit menu, and then I can pause or go back. I can enable the function to skip using the trackball but I want the other functions accessible as well.
my cm6 has an option in the settings that allows lock screen music player controls.
settings->cyanogenmod settings->input settings->lockscreen music controls
Great..that's exactly what I needed.
Thanks
freakin sweet. I helped someone. I love it when I'm a noob but my limited knowledge becomes useful.
There is a feature or option that I truly miss from an earlier version of android. The ability to have a separate volume for "Navigation" and "Media/Music" Is there anything out there that would allow that function back? I use Google Maps/Navigation and mostly Player Pro or Pandora for music and MX player for videos. My HTC Thunderbolt is running a BAMF rom with Android version 2.3.4
I would be open to a different rom as long as it does not drop below the 2.3.4 mark.
Does anyone know of anything that would bring back the separate Navigation Volume?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks
There will be a greater chance of getting an answer, if the title reflected your question...
There's an app called "Volume Control +" by Team Coffeebreak soft. Check that one out...
I currently have that installed but unfortunately it does not have the separate volume controls.
What about trying to use an app like tasker or Llama to create an event that every time any specific app launches the volume sets to a specific level.
Eg.
As I start the car and my phone connects to BT audio, the volume sets to max and Google play music app launches and when I get it out the car the volume returns to normal and the music app gets killed, all events are done instantly after BT connects/disconnects.
Good idea but my ultimate goal is something a little different. While driving I enjoy listening to my music at a relatively low volume. When the music is at a volume that is enjoyable I would like to have the navigation voice louder. It might help wake me up a bit so I don't miss a turn.
a very valid reason. they should implement individual app volume controls. Unfortunately, that would fall on the hands of the developer.
Hi,
I use my nexus 5 to play music in the car. What was really handy was an exposed module that started playing music as soon as the headphone jack was connected. It also jacked the media volume to max, skipping the annoying safe volume warning. While the screen was off holding the volume skipped the track.
Now I have installed android L to give that a go. It is great but this is the only feature that I miss. Now with no xposed I have gone searching for an alternative app. I have tried a few but of the half that actually worked none of them stay working. After some time they no longer skip the track.
I don't know if this is maybe just not possible with a standard app, which is why the xposed module exists. But it would be greatly appreciated if anyone has found of a reliable app which performs this task.
Try Apollo (default CM music app) I'm not sure if it works on Android L but it does have the features your looking for..
It's a framework integration hence the need for Xposed or a custom ROM. Or you could manually decompile and recompile (if you can even get it to work with the L API level).
Or, wait.
How about with Tasker?

Don't think Tasker can do it. I seem to recall looking into it quite some time ago.
Thanks for the messages. I have tried Apollo but i much prefer the Google play music. Mainly for streaming music. I would have through this feature would be in the official app but i guess not.

K I'm making it my mission today to figure this out with Tasker. I've been using tasker for forever and I've got some pretty advanced profiles. I'll figure this out with Google Play Music
Edit: I did find this app. But I'm gonna still try to do this with tasker.
Check out "Pocket Skip Track"

Sorry for my late reply.
Why couldn't Tasker do it? Just install this plugin and set your profiles. That should work.
I have tried Pocket Skip Track before and it didn't fully work. Just tried it again and chose other music instead of Google music. That seems to work. Let's see if it stays working. It's a shame it's a 2 button press instead of hold it it will do for now

Its not that easy bud. Trust me. It seems Tasker can not see the volume keys as hardware keys. Will work on this tonight or tomorrow.

There's a reason Xposed or a custom ROM is used to do it lol..

I know its been a while but I seriously want to get this to work with tasker. Did you get this working?
Poweramp will start music automatically when a headset or bluetooth is connected.
Cataclysm ROM will enable the track skip while long-pressing the volume.
Unfortunately I don't know about how to set the volume to max automatically, but I think you can disable the volume warning message within Cataclysm ROM too.
I'm trying to get this working too in tasker. Hold vol Up to skip forward etc. Can't see how to get tasker to detect this. (basically the back/forward buttons are broken)
made it possible on non rooted phones
try Frinky Music Controller
I always wanted to have an app which controls music with volume keys but i could not find any which does it smoothly. So I developed my own . My app Frinky Music Controller on GOOGLE PLAY controls music with volume keys and smartly controls music volume. It supports more 200 music players including poweramp, musixmatch, doubletwist, la musique, rocket player, blackplayer, pi music player, and Spotify. It works on both rooted and non-rooted phones.
Some features of the app are :
Next Song -- press volume UP key single time to play next song.
Previous Song -- use volume DOWN key to play previous song.
Control Volume -- when we want to control music volume , most of the time we press volume key more than once (next time when you adjust volume , feel it) . So the app uses this tendency of users as a function to control music volume i.e press volume key more than once to adjust volume.
Stop song -- Oh! you play music in your class in absence of professor here comes the professor .... turn off the music quickly by UP+UP+DOWN+DOWN key action (it takes less time than muting the volume and unlocking the screen .
Sleep Timer : Single sleep timer for all your music apps.
Manually control app's service : well to understand this feature you will have to download the app.
It consumes very less amount of ram.
I am new here so can not post link.
