streaming radio and sleep mode

Hi all...
Just got my Tilt a few weeks ago and thus far have been enjoying every moment. I have run into an issue that is a bit irritating, wondering if anyone has any ideas.
Streaming audio over the phone works great, but I can't figure out how to keep the music playing when the phone goes into sleep mode.
I get connected, it plays for a couple of minutes then the sound turns off along with the screen. I hit the power button to wake the phone up, the screen turns on and the music comes back. It appears that the phone is staying connected to the website, it is just the sound that goes away.
Ideally I would like to have the screen off to conserve battery power, while listening to the radio. I am having this issue when using the built in speaker and while using headphones connected through the USB port.
Any help or suggestions would be appriciated.

Yeah, I just tried it with mine and I get the same results - turning it to standby causes the music to stop but the stream seems to stay active. So, I would suggest getting a hold of a program called AE Button Plus, which allows you to remap all of the buttons on the front of the device. There are options in there to disable the standby mode when a button is pressed, and then you can turn off the screen but keep the device running with a different button press. Check it out and you'll understand what I mean, and I think that would be your best bet.

use wktask to minimize streaming apps for audio to stay on.

Speaking of AE Button Plus, also make sure you read my related Button Enhancer Bible for more tips & tricks.

In my experience, the music will still play through Bluetooth A2DP headphones when the phone goes to sleep.

Media Player prevents screen from turning off inreasing batt consumption

I have a Tilt and I wanted to know if this is normal or if there is a fix.
When playing music the screen will not turn off and uses up batts pretty fast. It jumps to the most dim backligh setting but is still clearly on. Is this normal or is there a music player that doesn't cause this issue?
Forgive me if this has been posted. I did a bunch of searching but there was a lot of noise regarding music skips and glitches.

I assume you are talking about the built-in Windows Media Player. In the options you can assign a button to turn the display on/off. Hope this helps.

hi there. while using the built in media player i have found that i can actually press the power button momentarily and put the device to "sleep" while still running media player. it will jump a touch but then resume. if you are using bluetooth headphones you can still control volume, play/pause and skip track. this makes the battery last much longer.

found the toggle screen option. Thanks guys!

[Q] Help With Volume and Keyboard Issues?

Hey everyone, just want to address a few problems with my new Captivate:
Volume:
-For some reason, adjusting the Media Volume also adjusts the In-Call Volume after saving the settings and going back into the menu. I've installed apps such as QuickSettings and Audio Manager in attempt to rectify the issue, but, to no avail, the higher/lower the Media Volume, the higher/lower the In-Call Volume is in the settings when I go to adjust them again.
-Whenever I use the AT&T numbers in my Contacts list (I.E.: to check minutes/data used etc.) the phone automatically turns down my Notifications volume after dialing the codes.
Keyboard:
-The Andriod keyboard has an issue with turning off caps if I hit the key immediately after tapping space. Doing so on the Samsung keyboard turns on caps lock. Annoying when I'm texting quickly and have to slow down just to capitalize one letter. :-\
Are these issues common, or am I the only one? Any known fixes?

I know that when I'm listening to music the volume goes up right before a call( because my Media Volume is not all the way up but my In-Call Volume is) after the call my media volume returns to its normal state after half a second of music replaying.
In short, I don't have that problem...

[Q] [JB] How to prevent Media Player from auto starting when...

... I press the volume +/- buttons and the screen is off?
I installed my first JB firmware (RocketRom v4) and this is starting to be annoying.
When i.e. I am listening to Internet Radio by Tune In Radio sometimes I need to turn the volume up or down and I don't want that issue.
I gave a look at media player settings, but there's no mention about that.

[Q] Xperia Z screen turned on with bluetooth headphones buttons...

Hi,
it's irritating that when using my XZ in the pocket and e.g. changing the played track with my MDR-R1BT button the screen is turned on :| That's a waste of energy ;|
To sum up:
Situation:
- headphones connected via BT
- music playing from Walkman app (same with PowerAmp)
Event:
- headphones play/pause,next,previous button trigger screen being woken
- phone volume buttons also wake the screen

Anyone has any ideas how to prevent this from happening?

Been using my BT headset for a month now, don't have any of these problems.
What happens when you use the walkman app?
