[Q] not mapping vol button to ringer - Nook Color General

Hi,
Do you think it's possible to map the vol+/- button to media volume instead of ringer volume when you're on home screen?
thank you

It should automatically switch to media volume when media is playing. What exactly are you trying to do?

Somtimes i want to lower the media volume before starting a game.. wish just using buttons could do it!

It can be a pain...
I use Audio Manager. It's an app, not hardware, but it works...

Another option: I use Volumer++. You can have it live right in the status bar. Volume keys are remapped to MENU and BACK.

Not the answer to your question, but this app is very cool, and you can select the volumes to control. I find it much easier to manage volumes than using Volumer or Audio Manager.

I forgot that audiomnager exist, i will give it a try.
Thank

I too am interested if anyone has found a solution to this. I have no need for my Nook's volume keys to do anything with ringer volume. I would love to be able to remap these for media volume exclusively.

[Q] Volume rocker to move cursor when texting?

Hey everyone, I was using CM9/10 and I was absolutely in love with this option! It lets you move the typing cursor using the volume buttons. Unfortunately, I'm now using the official TW 4.0.4 ROM and it doesn't have that option. I really like the official 5 row Samsung Keyboard. The only thing that is missing for me is this option. Is there any way I can add it?
I found JellyBean Keyboard in the Play Store but it doesn't have 5 rows. I'm looking for a keyboard that has 5 rows and this option.
Also, not sure if I should open another thread or not, but there's another option that's really nice. The Expandable Volume Panel. A small button shows up when you increase/decrease the volume that expands the panel and enables you to control the volume of media, notifications, system sounds and ringer.
Those two options would make TW nearly perfect for me! I'd really appreciate it if anyone knows any program/mod that can do them. Thanks!
Edit: found an app called Volumizer. It's close to what I want but it doesn't have a shortcut on the notifications bar or anything. I have to open it manually from the applications menu or from the shortcut I created on the home screen every time I want to change the volume. It would have been perfect if it could be tied to the volume rocker.
Bump..

[Q] Use the headphone controls to change tracks?

My old (HTC) phone used the controls on the headphone cable to move between tracks, instead of change volume.
I have to admit I prefer things that way - so would like to know if there's any way to change the behaviour on my Mini.
Any suggestions (apps, mods to flash, etc) appreciated

Tried holding the buttons?
I had those also on my previous phone (Motorola) and it worked by long pressing those buttons.

Take a look at my thread here, there's a "press volume keys to skip tracks mod" and there's a chance it could also work with your headphones control http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39282702#post39282702

[Q] How can I set the volume buttons as media controls?

In some CyanogenMod-based ROMs, holding volume up or volume down while the screen is off, and music is playing, will skip to the next or previous song. This is very useful if my phone is in my pocket and I want to go to the next song. But right now I'm using CivZ_Multi_Flex (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219353) which is based on stock, and doesn't have that feature. I'm wondering if there's a way to add it, so it behaves just like in CyanogenMod.
I also asked this not a long ago, got no answer. I don't think it's possible, only with media players that support that function.

Headphones to switch songs with custom rom

I just recently switched from an iPhone 5 to an Sprint HTC One and flashed Cyanogen Mod 10.2 onto it, the headphones work to switch songs but they do not work to turn the volume up or down. I have tried long presses on it, I am using the Apple Earpods, I am willing to switch headphones if some work for volume + and volume -. Also does anyone know any other custom roms besides CM that work with song switching, anyone that has viperrom or any other custom rom that can tell me? I have tried the apps like Headset Controller and JAYS on the stock rom and they did not work as well as CM did, any advice is appreciated thanks!
There's a setting in there somewhere. I forget exactly. On PACROM, it's under lockscreen settings. Check around, you should find it.

I found settings for long press back button and long press home button but not for headset options, and those two options do not increase or decrease volume. Thanks though.

Disabling/modding volume keys

I've been searching the internet for days, and all I've learned is that I DONT need an app to "change my volume to a preset level when the buttons are pressed." I need one of two things, and I need XDA's help to find them.
OK, I definitely know where to manually edit the script to disable volume keys (key 114 and 115) but I'd like to either be able to toggle them easily, such as with a quicksettings tile or widget, or I'd like to be able to say....press both volume buttons together, twice, to toggle them.
Why would I want this? The volume rocker is smack-dab in the middle of the phone, right about where my game controller clips on. I play a lot of games, and this is killing me. Thank you for your time.
The best temporary fix I have is to disable them myself by deleting their entry in keylayout. Looking forward to your guys' wisdom.
I don't want to sound like one of "those guys", but, Plz halp?

Found something a little better. Using gravity box xposed module, I've got "show volume panel" mapped to a custom nav bar key and disabled the physical volume buttons themselves for now
