[Q] Launch of music player when earphones are plugged in - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone !
When I get my Note out-of-the-box, it used to launch the stock music player each time I plugged my earphones (the one given with the note) in. But now, it doesn't do it anymore.
Have I imagined this, or how can put this option back?
Thanks

Interesting, didn't realise the stock app did that at all.
There are apps that will do that for you, or better yet use PowerAMP (best music player!).

Diamond Music Player: music off when screen switch off

Hello All!
I would like to find a solution for a HTC Diamond Music Player problem.
When I play music with this media player and the screen switch off, the player stop too!
I have found a solution for coreplayer but I prefer HTC Diamond Music Player because it's on the homescreen...
THX for answers!
try this: http://freewareppc.com/utilities/screenswitch.shtml
allows you to switch off the screen while listening to your music
THX a lot enfant_terrible1979 !
Solved!
Do you know whether there is a tweak so that no third party application is required?
I found that the problem only ocurrs when I use the built-in speaker to play music.
i dun think so. nver thought of that.
the fm radio works with the screen switched off manually though.
in any case, the app is pretty small in mem so not much of an issue
That's weird.
I play my music through the diamond media player ALL the time with my screen switched off.
What ROM you guys running?
I'm running Elite 3.0 and use the RC E100 for headphones. But seriously I've never had this problem even before this ROM. I've been doing that since the start.
try locking the device when playing music (press the hang up button a couple sec)
the device will lock and eventually turn of the screen while the musics keeps playing
I have been quite happily switching the screen off with the power button when listening to music but suddenly it refuses to switch off until music is stopped. Does anyone know of a registry fix for this perhaps?

[Q] Music Player Starts Unexpextedly...Anyone else having this problem?

Greetings everyone!
I recently purchased a Samsung i9000m with Bell Canada. Thankfully I have not had any major problems with the phone, but there is one large annoyance I have discovered: Whenever the headphones are plugged in, pressing the button on the headphones cord starts the Music Player app. Additionally, removing the headphones also starts the Music Player app. Has anyone else experienced this behaviour from their phone? Is there a way to stop this irritating "feature"?
My phone is currently all stock/not rooted, except that I recently upgraded the firmware to JH2 (this behaviour also existed on the previous firmware).
Many thanks in advance,
Matt
The first feature is intentional. ( Why else would you press the button again? )
I don't get the second. ( It does pause when I pull it out, and it starts playing if I have that setting on, when I put it in. )
Thanks for the reply.
I'm not sure I was clear. Anytime the music player isn't running (i.e. after turning on the device), unplugging the headphones will load the music player. Similarly, pressing the button on the headphones (i.e. to answer an incoming call while I'm driving my car) will also start the music player!
Basically I want the music player to only load when I choose it from the apps page or home screen...I almost liken it to a weird version of "autoplay" from windows computers...I wish there was a way to turn it off with a simple check-box!
Can confirm that unplugging any cable from the headphone plug will open the music player app.

Well that makes two of us....I guess that means I'm not imagining things!
Doesn´t open Musicplayer when plug out the headsetcable on my SGS. Maybe you have any other music player widget or app installed?
I saw that also. Better yet, even killing the app with autokiller, adter a few seconds... there she was again playing.
I was in transit that tine and could not investigate the problem. Didn't use musicplayer much lately so don't know if the problem still exists.
For me the trigger was the headset button. Click that sucker and you have an annyoing Musicplayer that returns from the deads.
yeah very annoying. i was just testing the tv out and it still starts it when unplugging the cable.
Just a FYI.
You'll get the same effect when using a Bluetooth Stereo headset
1 tap to wake up the phone
2 tap to launch the music player
double fast tap to skip to the next song
1 tap long hold to call last number dialed
... and there are more tricks, but that's usually what i do

Audio bugs on 4.1

Hello everyone
Bought my Xperia T on white about two weeks ago. It's a really awesome phone, don't have anything to complain about. Good battery, nice UI, etc.
Updated it in the first day to 4.1.
However, I've got 2 weird audio bugs:
1. No matter what music player I have, music occasionaly skips a few seconds. I tried:
-other music players
-re-inserting my 32GB microSD card back.
Nada, the bug is still there.
Gotta mention something: I don not use any equalizer presets or ClearSound/Bass/Whatever music effect Sony gives me. I find them all rubbish.
2. I occasionally have issues when I pull my headphones out... I am used to Android phones, and I know there are separate volumes (I had a Galaxy Spica and a Moto Defy+) but this one has a really weird behavior. It sometimes doesn't "understand" that the headphones are out. But that can be solved easily, by re-inserting the headphones. Lately, for some reason, it didn't happen too much. I don't know, I have a pair of small in-ear Sennheiser headphones, not Sony ones...
3. How can I properly give album art to my music? Media Go tried something, but didn't do much... should I try via Wi-Fi? I've got about 2055 songs. Should it take a while?
Many, many thanks.
Poweramp->settings->audio->advanced tweaks->audio buffer size / audio thread priority. Have you tried changing those?
Hy, for me when i use my beats by dre headphone in Bluetooth with the maximum sound, the sound is low. I did to make a "begin of call" the sound level Bluetooth go up like in ICS. After a few minutes if i stop the music, the sound is low another time.
Any idee?

Something similar happens to me sometimes where the music will just stop playing only to resume a few seconds later for like no reason (no incoming calls or anything). Sometimes it will stop playing at the Walkman icon in the status bar disappears so I have to go back to Walkman app and start the song over. Not really sure why it does this. Haven't had any issues with 4.2.1 yet though, seemed to be an ICS issue for me at least. I noticed my Xperia ion did the same thing but it was much worse with the ion. My roommate has the ion and just updated to ICS and told me it happens to her still even post update.
For the record I have the AT&T Xperia TL and a 32GB SD card with 95% of my music on the card.

Seems that PowerAmp works really well, however been wondering if there's a free alternative out there.

Not any good...

headset controls on the One are LAME

This is the kind of thing that makes me want to go back to Samsung, I mean they are the leaders in sound yet can't get music controls correct and keep a freaken standard. Last HTC I had came with a 3 buttons headset and through all Android did. With the One they give you good headphones but a single button headset and no way to skip tracks.:crying: I tried 3rd party apps like headset droid to make use of the single button headset but it seems like some clicks go unregistered, single click (pause) works, but when you double click all presses after that go unregistered and you have to click (pause) click (unpause) and then you can change the track.
I confirmed using the button monitor that clicks after a track change go unregistered which seems odd and I'm surprised no one else has this issue? This is with the stock music player.
When using Play Music and setting Headset Droid to specifically control it it starts to work like i want but weird the stock player canot be controlled the same way.
Complaints like this are stupid. It's just headset controls and if it is really annoying you buy a different phone.
I know it may seem a bit harsh but a complaint like this is a bit redundant.

I use Sony livesound and can skip tracks, the only down side I find is not being able to adjust volume anymore.

Why is it stupid? The controls have nothing to do with the phone. The phone (stock music player) has the capability its just the supplied headset are lacking. If they supplied a 3 button headset like most newer phones then this would not be an issue (brothers Note 2 three button headset can skip tacks when plugged into the HTC One). Last HTC came bundled with a 3 button headset and if the One did I would not have to resort to 3rd party music apps and apps to control a single button headset. If they wanted to supply it with a single button headset then the music player should have been modified to support it.
Sure I can go buy Beats but the supplied headset should be able to complete a simple task such as changing a track.
I wish there was a MOD that fixed this! Drives me CRAZY. And I don't want to switch music players - I actually think everything else considered, HTC's music app is one of the best I've used on Android

Bro, Did you fixed this? Drives me too, i'm always keep calling every last call.
Pffff drives me crazy, so ridiculous.
I wish there was a mod to bypass the damn default settings of the headset button. This way we could use Jays Headset Control app....
I gave up on it and use Google Music now, I really liked the stock player but can't complain with the recent updates Google added. I froze the stock player so it never kicks in
So it does not work with a 3 button headset, or you are just obsessed with the fact that it it not COME with one?
Because it would seem like a simple fix to just buy one, if the phone supports it.
I just used the 3-button control headset that came with my Desire HD (they're still available on the internet) and it worked perfectly as before. I can answer calls, skip tracks, change radio stations etc...

[MUSIC MOD?] continuous play while notification sound

Hey.
There was a time when I had a iPhone. There I was used to listening music in the car while using navigation. When navi had something to say it automatically lowered the music by approximately 50% and gave is advices. This is really handy and seems professional. Since Samsung s2 I had several android phones and the fact that it just mutes music totally makes me crazy sometimes. Is there a mod or do you know about a player which acts the way I want?
Would be awesome!
The Z1 music app Walkman does this, it just lower the sound and reproduce what it needs and then come back to normal.....
