Just wondering if there's any app or mod out there that allows us to use the volume keys to change tracks. Really troublesome to take the phone out just to skip to the next track...
As the title says, is there any way to forward and back skip tracks by holding the volume rocker, such as with a key mapping app or something?
I am wondering the same thing but for the Droid Eris.
EDIT: OP, see this thread. I admittedly did not try this before searching!

Is there a way to hack the Captivate volume buttons to change tracks on the music player?

I know Galaxy tuner offers key mapping for those buttons. You may want to check that out. If not currently offered maybe the dev could add
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 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.

Buy PlayerPro - it supports skip fw/back with the volume keys and is an actively developed app. Responsive dev and helpful forums too.
