[REQUEST] volume rocker skip songs! - Nexus 7 General

So back when i did use CM stuff i very much enjoyed being able to use a held down volume rocker to skip songs, but not so much the ROM, it was a lot of effort to keep up with the nightlies and bugs. Seems someone else had the same feelings as me and here we someone delving into the decompiled system apk's to bring it to stock... but for the S3....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2071970
Please those with greater coding brains than I, bring this to the nexus 7!

this feature and volume rocker to capture a photo! sorry for interrupting.. subscribed tho!

Pretty sure the skip track mod is baked into SmoothROM... I know there's an option to enable/disable it in settings, but I haven't tested it yet.
ROM - Odexed Blue LJ7 "Holy Grail"
Kernel - KT747
Baseband - LJ7

Ics long press vol to skip tracks

Hi
I have been looking but not much luck in finding if anyone has done the mod to long press the volume button to change song when screen off. I know the i9100 ics has a mod for it but dies anyone know if there is one for the n7000 at all or know how to do it. I attempted it but got stuck at samsung logo and wasnt sure if was doing it right anyway. Any ibfo would be good.
Thanks

Not sure with stock player, poweramp has these options.

Thanks for a reply. I tried poweramp but for some reason didn't work. I found that rocketrom has it as a tweak in his tweakbox app so I changed to his rom and it works now for stock and s3 music player too. Not sure if his tweakbox would work on other samsung based roms.

On my ICS Kingdroid 7.4 ROM I have all the features you are looking for working like a charm. But it's ICS though.
Yeah that's one great rom.
I now use AllianceRom, all its missing is wifi tethering notification bar toggle

Doesn't wifi tether from the play store work.
Wifi tethering works through the settings menu, I'm after the toggle for the notification bar
And unrelated im looking for popup browser with flash player, nobody seems to have ever mentioned it, I can't be the only 1 to think it would be awesome?

I'll thank you now, I've only just seen your post.
I've settled on Alliance Rom beta 1.1, it's only missing hotspot and torch toggles that I care about. Home button torch, volume rocker, snote, erm..... tired cant think haha almost everything I want works
I go away a week on monday for 6 months (no, not prison haha) so I'm kind of hoping come June/July Official JB would have been released and been all dev'd up by then. For the sake of a week I think I'm going to stay on Alliance, feel free to keep adding recommendations though guys. If you come across a Rom that has all 6 listed below add it here, the more the merrier
1. Volume Skip Track,
2. Hotspot, Torch Toggles,
3. Home Button Lockscreen Torch,
4. S Note/Suite by the summer hopefully lol,
5. Resizeable Windows,
6. CRT Effect On/Off without bugs....
Untill next time, Peace out

Why should I get CM10.1.1 instead of Stock ROM?

Hello, this is just a question, I'm not bashing/hating here. I see many people running CM10.1, and the main article in the news on Android portals across the internet is the new update - CM10.1.1
I have a ROM based on CM10.1 on my Nexus S and honestly I see no much difference in comparison with the stock one I got on my N7. So, what is in your opinion, the best reason to get CM10.1.1?
Cause all the cool kids are doing it!!

Security fixes. There are always new exploits found to compromise any system and its best to have the latest fixes.

-Only basic Google apps installed default

-> Everything is so nicely integrated including superuser. It's stock, but improved with all the tweaks and apps you'd usually flash or install yourself. Plus there is the option to update OTA.
OP needs to read up on things instead of asking. There are many resources, guides and videos out there.

The lack of options compared to AOKP keeps me away. Tablet mode and Nav/status bar transparencies are essential on the N7.
CM is more of a stockish feel with the latest security fixes and a few limited additional options and theme support.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
I agree with the above. CM just does not offer enough options compared to aokp to sway me over. At the same time, high memory and high graphic games always work better for me on stock. Ergo, im a multirom junkie. Best of all worlds with a simple reboot.

I just updated OTA for the first time today, worked like a charm.
The OTG automount is worth couple of bucks by itself. Also, the easy to use screen cap is da coolest.
I be way happy with CM on my N7.

Exactly. It's enhanced stock Android, but more importantly it's enhanced stock Android with the support, wide compatibility, and "whole-ness" of stock. I've convinced many a friend running TouchWiz, Sense, and even stock Android to switch to CM or a CM-based ROM.

Being that it's a smaller tablet, I don't agree that tablet mode is totally necessary. Is it nice to have? Definitely. I also wouldn't call transparencies "essential" in any sense.

The lack of either isn't a device killer, but those are 2 really nice features that I require. After running both, you wonder why they aren't stock in the first place. And I'd say that BECAUSE of the smaller tablet (7") it is EVEN MORE important to save desktop space.
Of course you could also use Extended Desktop w/ PIE controls, but the only PIE I like is Blackberry Cobbler.
Then there are people like me, I dont care CM or AOKP & what not...
Just need: speed + 110% smoothness without a stutter on all non gaming tasks + amazing batt life + USB Audio DAC support...
Also, still waiting for bit-perfect and hardware direct mode for USB Audio / DAC from kernel and music playback app developers... which probably will never come. Something like ASIO/WASAPI? Ring a bell? Guess not...
Audiophile 'minority'...meh.
Yep, people like me.

In all fairness (and much to my surprise), the Nexus 7 is the most challenging device to find organized, consolidated and relevant info for. Those of us whom count this as our first Nexus device have always been preached upon the virtue of stock/AOSP/CM vs (insert OEM UI) as though the three are synonymous, with CM being the vehicle that brings stock to, again, (insert OEM UI) devices. Even the Sprint-variant galaxy sII threads contain more up-to-date FAQ/tutorial stickies.
Maybe do a better job of consolidating "out there" before being "that" guy who has nothing to contribute beyond a condescending one-liner?
To the OP, the official CM website does an ok job at explaining their 'official' releases, but not a whole lot about how the experience differs from 'official' Vanilla/Nexus/Play Edition releases.
Also, Linaro --who works with literally every company not named Nvidia on source development-- seems to be a BFD to tegra3...

I always thought a forum was place where people could come and get help, or opinions from fellow members.
If the OP is asking for your opinion, then it's a possibility he/she values what you have to say, rather than blogs that have been written by others.

OP, it's a totally legit question, glad you asked. Because you asked, I read this thread and learned something. Perhaps the question has been asked too many times, but whatevs....no electrons or photons were harmed in the making of this thread. Frankly, you're either part of the solution or part of the problem, my vote says this thread is mostly part of the solution. I'm just in the process of deciding what I will do on my N7 after I unlock the bootloader and root it, now I have to search/understand the process of dual booting so I can try AOKP while enjoying stock, which I very much do (glad I waited for a 32). It also reinforced my desire to put CM back on my GSII.

Spoonfeeding huh? As somebody said already, this forum is a place to go ask questions and to help get a better understanding of what your tablet/phone is capable of.
To my knowledge there is nothing wrong w/ that as I have been doing this since '06 and continue to learn something new every time I read these forums. Cm 10.1 is a great rom w stock options, with the flexibility of giving you some customization. Surely give it a whirl

AOKP General Discussion

Since there wasn't a thread made in the development forums I figured I'd start one here. Any success installing AOKP any bugs? Lets discuss it here.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I'm on it. No issues so far, as there aren't many custom features yet.
Any sources for the AOKP nexus 5 edition?
I'm using my phone for gps to get home so I'm a bit scared to flash it. As soon as Im home I'm gonna take this baby for a spin. Definitely an awesome Christmas present.

Feel nice to finally be able to run AOKP on hammerhead. Too bad its soo skinny for now. Guess I'll head back to cataclysm for now and wait for devs to fill the ROM with the goodies.
Ran into an issue of not being able to get root access. Anyone else able to reproduce?

Can anyone with a chromecast confirm that when you try to cast from Google play movies app its causes a soft reboot? All other apps work fine, not sure if its ROM related or not. So far its running great.

Big fan of AOKP ... I ran this rom on my N5 for about 12 hours without any issues. I did not try chromecast though so I can't speak to that issue as others have brought up.
I jumped back to beanstalk for now, but will likely come back to AOKP when more bells are added.
