Hi, Im using the touchflo integrated music player, its fine for my needs, it only lacks the function, where it turns off after lets say 30min. I listen to music while falling asleep...
I know gsplayer can do it...some other maybe also.
any trick is appreciated. I prefer a utility, not a different player. Thanks
I have the exact same problem. Are you also using S2U2 (slide to unlock app)? Because I first thought the problem might be there.
but how to make the earphones come out your head after 30mins... thats the real problem
@rumple: Yeah...I find myself in the morning with them around my neck
I dont care I just dont want that the phone plays the whole night.
I would suppose to try Mort Player. It has a sleep-function. You can set the time after that playback will stop. But its not as stylomatic as the original Diamond-player.

The original poster asked for an utility, not a different player.
I am in the exact same situation, I love the TouchFlo player and don't want to launch an other program and would totally like the sleep function.
It's fun because the FM radio has the feature but the TFPlayer does not.
I even tried to set the radio sleep timer and mute radio, but it doesnt stop the tf player...so it doesnt turn off
psshutxp has an option to reboot the device at a specific time... maybe this helps

That's what I use. Still no solution to damn near choking myself with the headphones by the time I wake up tho...

But does that also disables the sound to go off when the phone goes into sleep mode?
I use Mortscript to do this.
This script turns off the TF3D build in player after 60 minutes.
If interested, I can send you the script, you can download mortscript itself via here:
www.sto-helit.de/modules/edito/content.php?id=38
I would try it! Please share the script!
Thanks
Is there any way to remote control your phone through your PC (Over wifi).
I usually use my phone with Spotify to play music on my stereo. And when i'm at my computer which is about 10 meters away. It would be really nice to be able to change music from my computer.
Is that at all possible?
remote control
dude try gmote..i use it and never had any issue..i love it
picme does it with it's java application
picme is an ace app, do you bac know how to get live(standalone) working, ive updated java etc, but on opening it shows for a fraction of a second and crashes back........

Personally i just use phonemypc,youtube it and you should be able to find a download link.

Hello,
I got a samsung galaxy S and just updated to froyo 2.2. I noticed that 2.2. installed some new apps. There's one app called task panel or task manager where you can set the ram Niv 1 & 2 etc. I think this program is causing the following problem :
I listen to audio courses on the phone. When i go to work i pause the course to pick up where i left off later. The problem is that since i installed froyo 2.2. sleep mode shuts down the mp3 player so that i got to start the course (30min) all over again. Before the update sleep mode didn't affect the MP3 player.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thx!
I had a problems with music player on froyo too. Try to switch to another music player from market. All problems are gone.

I'm struggling with the same problem and I don't want to install another player because the stock one is perfect, except for this problem.
Have you found a solution yet?
Install Music Mod from market. JUST DO IT
Wasn't sure where exactly to post but please move to the correct sub forum.
I need an app that does what the subject title does. Its not a necessity but more of a gimmick. I want the screen to remain on when an app is running in the background and I've tried and tested various apps from the play store and none of them are working the same with my old nexus 5.
When I begin playing a playlist from Spotify I dock it in my car cradle and then put it to sleep mode, the music is still playing and when I push the sleep button on again, it comes up with a cover art which looks pritty cool in my car.
I've downloaded several apps and when I assign the 'screen on function' to Spotify it stays on fine when loading up the app but when I get the phone to go into sleep mode (with the app still in the background) the screen doesn't stay on. The apps do what they are supposed to do when keeping the screen on when Spotify is loaded but its the sleep mode I'm stuggling to get it to work properly.
Any ideas which App can do this? I've crawled through google play store and none of them are doing what I need them to do.
Thanks
exactly what you want:

good luck
Thats working, will test later but thanks for responding. Been looking for an app for a long time. Cheers.
I've been playing around with desktop mode quite a bit and overall it seems to be a good idea. With the exception of TeamViewer I could move my entire business day over to it quite easily. I'm using an Inapio hub and keyboard / mouse combo with a usb dongle.
Apps that I've found work well with it are:
1. All of the Microsoft apps. I mainly use the Outlook app and Microsoft Edge and have no complaints about either of them.
2. Enpass and Lastpass.
3. Most if not all of my banking apps work well.
Apps that don't work well:
1. Quite a few games. Some of the games that require taps don't recognise mouse clicks. Risk is one I can think of straight away.
2. TeamViewer (app-specific problem as it doesn't support remote desktop scaling from the Android app).
Bugs / annoyances I've found:
1. Quite often when clicking on buttons in browsers, email and other apps I have to click slightly off-centre to the left and below the button before the click is recognised.
2. When deleting the built-in apps from the desktop the rest of the icons don't auto-rearrange.
3. No auto-rearrange of icons.
4. Lacking a slideshow for the desktop background.
Do you use desktop mode and how do you find it?
How is performance and input lag? Is it smooth?
I couldn't get see Gmail. Which is a bummer since we use g-suite at work....
Apart from that it worked very well. My monitor has the most and keyboard plugged into it and the video about is a USB-C cable. When plugged into this the desktop is very well integrated with the most and keyboard working fine and the phone charging via the video cable as well. But as I said, no Gmail...
@Riio Performance is very good with no lag.
@palexr Yes, a bit odd that the gmail app isn't listed under the start menu. I think it must be about the only one that doesn't show up there. You could always use gsuite via a web browser?
One type of app that works well in desktop mode but not in phone mode is SIP / VOIP clients. I use Bria but have also tested Zoiper and both app stop running under the lockscreen; even with "ignore battery optimisation" enabled and yet Skype works perfectly.
Gmail app icon does not appear in the desktop, but if you receive Gmail notification and you click on it, Gmail will load. What I did was to pin to Task bar and now I have it in desktop. So all you have to do is to wait patiently for the notifications of your favourite apps to appear on the desktop.

Thanks, yes that worked - to a degree. I can open Gmail from the notifications and then pin it to the Task Bar as you say. However, clicking on the resultant icon will only open my private email and not my work one. However, if I get a work email, I get a notification which I can open and access my work emails - pinning that to the task bar will only open my private gmail.
So, yep it works, just need to send my work email an email.
Thanks.
What determines whether an app icon will appear or not in desktop mode ?
I tried it but could not find YouTube app for example in Desktop mode ? So how do I trigger other apps not shown in Desktop mode ?

What triggers the DPI used on an external screen? I have two screens - one 23 Dell monitor and one 23 Samsung SyncMaster TV/Monitor. Both support 1920x1080 however when I connect HM10P to a Samsung Screen I noticed the DPI is much lower than on the Dell one (same resolution).

Anyone know if there is a list of supported app in desktop mode, or some specific flag/tag to search for in Play Store. I'm interested also into Visio replacement and some PDF editors but can't understand what to search for.
I didn't understand if this mode is valid only for EMUI desktop (so that developers need to change their app to work specifically on EMUI) or a general Android optimization.
I found a way to add any app, though not all work properly.. Prime video for example, it loads, but video playback is just a black box..
Use another launcher (I used Nova), and open that launcher in desktop mode. Nova looks broken, but don't worry.. Double click (left mouse) on the blank home screen and app search opens.. Find your desired app, open it, then pin it to the bottom bar..
Enjoy
When using PC Mode is there a way to force fullscreen for 3rd Party apps.
I use the Huawei standard video player which is always fullscreen but for some videos there is no sound so I use VLC or MX Player. Cant seem to get rid of the taskbar below when using the other apps.

Same issue, a bit annoying, but nearly full screen.. Chrome won't go full screen in videos either, nor any other non stock video player I've tried..

Dang. Was hoping it was something I was not doing.
Emailed their support requesting they add this. Hopefully they enable with a software update.

This is what bothers me, I've been using terrarium app a lot lately, and casting my screen to our tv works just fine but since its using wireless connection, image quality is somehow affected and also the auto motion plus wont work, movements arent that smooth(was accustomed to 60fps). Tried using the desktop mode and image quality did improve and the auto motion plus now works but movies on mxplayer is not going on full screen.
Autocad mate 10 desktop mode
Someone can tell me if autocad app runs with desktop mode on mate 10?
Tested yesterday the Easy Projection mode, a huge disappointment from my expectations to get rid of my Windows laptop.
The Microsoft Suite is barely usable, the documents are resizing correctly but Word, Excel, PowerPoint features are just a ghost of the rich applications I have on the laptop. Also the UI is clumsy with commands to be accessed in weird way.
Also the user experience is far from productive, with the right button click doing the function of the left button, no point and drag, no changing apps position in folders.
Dropbox app, files app etc are just a stretched version of the mobile one with a lot of empty space.
The only well functioning is web browsing, so I suppose relying on Google Docs will be fine.
Want to ask if does someone else have this problems, maybe need I to do some setup.
My desktop test
Today I tested the desktop mode.
I was quite amazed about what I saw.
A few things I did not like:
-citrix receiver did not work well
-rdp connections did not go well
-no VoIP apps possible because the user that is activated has no rights to the phone options.
I am looking for the possibility to change some settings for the desktop mode. I can't find the application "desktop mode" to elavate the rights.
Also the edges for the chrome browser are not as good as we would like to see. I will subscribe to the fora for the Huawei desktop mode to see if I can learn. Something there.
If anyone has tips for me please advise me.

i have problems with VLC, it works fine but playback controls dont appear on screen.
Perfect with stock video player but no audio in some videos
I use MX player, working 100% great
The three are full screen support, to do it go to the icon on the task bar and left button, then enable it.
Just wondering with the P20 series released, updated EMUI 8.1 have there been any improvements in desktop mode compared to the mate 10?
anyone know how to have desktop mode auto-launch when cable is plugged in, rather than having to choose desktop mode from status bar?
