[Q] [Problem] Headset button acts inconsistently - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Just wanna ask if anyone else got that problem. When I press the headset button (on the bundled headset) it either skips a track or jumps back or stops the track and I can't find a pattern.
Also on double tap I call the last number in call history and the display unlocks (this can't be intended, or is it?), also sometimes it skips a track or does both, there is also no real pattern.
Tried several things to fix that and also tried the headset from my old S2. Headset Button Control doesn't work at all and PowerAMP works but also crashes the phone app everytime I skip a track per double tap.
Thanks in advance for reply

prevent diamond from waking up when pressing button on bluetooth headset?

When I press pause/play on my headset the device wake's up and I'm able to press all sorts of things on the screen I don't want
does anybody know how to fix this (without installing a screenlock app)?
I don't know what you mean by installing (installing another program or using any lock?) but the inbuilt windows lock seems to protect from such situations. Just tested it with my bt headphones and seems they can wake up, but can;t unlock my diamond.
I had touchlockpro installed before I upgraded to ROM 2.03, because I would accidentally press on buttuns when listening to music and miss calls/ aswer calls in my pocket... so I installed touchlockpro to block everything on wake up...
but now one of the two problems is solved by the ROM upgrade (slide to answer).
So only one (but annoying) problem remains.
I don't want to unlock my phone everytime I take it out of my pocket, especially as this seems to be something that is easily fixed by a registry edit (don't wake up on button press) or something.
so that's the problem, and I can't find a solution
any help would be greatly appreciated

can't answer/end calls with headset button

My cappy is rooted, but with stock rom. Originally, I remember being able to answer and end calls using the button on the stock headset / headphones.
Now, if I press the button, a media program such as double twist starts up. I have disabled the setting in doubletwist that mentions headset controls.
Shouldn't the button be able to end/initiate calls? If so, what the heck do I have to do to fix this?
Thanks!
Maybe a tasker profile can help you
Try un-installing double twist to see if it comes back, check all other music apps, also, did you mess with button re mapping in galaxy tuner?
Sent from my Samsung Captivate i896 Canadian, eh?
looks like it might be subsonic. found a few other people on subsonic's forums that appear to have the same problem. doubletwist's option to ignore the headset seems to work. going to uninstall subsonic to see for sure...

[Q] MIUI and wired headset

Hi there,
I have a problem with my headset. I can only end a call with it. I am not able to answer the call nor play/pause function.
running *#*#6484#*#* the phone failed to correctly recognize pressing of the buttons with my headset. I correctly play music after pressing it once, but there is no way to pause the music, playing the music works only in this test menu, outside of that there is no action after pressing the button.
I am using Galaxy S with default one-button headset provided by Samsung.
All apps to control headset like droid headset cant recognize that my headset is connected.
Can it be fixed some how?
best

[Q] How can I manipulate the headset button mapping

Hi,
I know it is partly mentioned in a few threads already, but nobody explicitly asked that question (or answered it respectively). [It is regarded to the bundled headset, but applies to most 1-button-headset out there]
Status Quo:
- when I double tap the headset button -> redial + unlock the screen
- when I long tap the headset button -> Google Now opens + unlock the screen
- one tap plays and pauses music, but is also a very fragile setting as sometimes it starts a previous track or begins the track from the beginning
Problem with this:
- I have to unlock the phone and skip tracks manually
- I unlocked the phone accidentally a few times due to that setting
Question: How can I get rid of this very quirky mapping? And also, how can I get the double tap working to skip a track?
What I tried:
- Headset Button Controller -> Didn't work at all
- DoubleTwist -> Worked, but also everytime I skip a track it crashes the phone app and demands me to retype the SIM code
- a few other things, like flashing other ROMs and playing with a lot of settings
+1
Headset Button Controller works complete fine for me.
From 4.1.2 onwards no app can intercept long press it will always go to Google now, that how Google decided. Learn to live with it.
For everything else Headset Button Controller is the way to go
It will solve ur redial issue, just go to Advanced tab ->Advanced settings->Check redial fix
Headset button controller works but only for one action/ first track. it doesn't skip tracks after. any help?
I tried a few things but still could not skip tracks with the bundles headset. Most earphones out there cater for iPhone controls so they won't work either. As far as a I am aware, the urbeats and the specific htc e240 earphones work a treat. I bought the cheap
E240 set and they work great and also change volume.

Screen Timeout During Calls (speakerphone/bluetooth/headphones)

I use the phone a lot handsfree for work and it bugs me when the screen times out and locks on a handsfree call. I can't then easily mute, unmute, look at call durations, enter digits etc. without interacting with the phone in a clunky manner.
As an example i might be on a long conference call on speakerphone, mute my audio input to get up and walk around a little and then have to quickly unmute. To do this i have to press the side volume button and then the on screen unmute which sounds easy but can make for an awkward second or so of silence.
Basically i want the screen to stay on when in call and the proximity sensor detects it's not against my face.
Samsung has a phone app option for this i remember (keep screen on during calls).
Any suggestions ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Use a bluetooth earpiece/headset and add that as a trusted device. All the time it is on and connected the phone won't lock. Then just set screen sleep to something more appropriate like 5 minutes..
you could try something like this:

i haven't tried it, but i think it could solve your problem
EDIT: i just tried an app called "WaveUP" and it did the trick. also has a lot of other cool features, as well.
