I'm trying to figure this out because it's so annoying. When I am in my car and I want to fast forward the song just keeps fast forwarding until the next song and keeps going instead of just going forward like 5-10 secs. when I finally hit play it will pause and stop unless i pause and play a few times. I've been using PowerAmp and have checked their forums with no answers . I'm using the audi MMI system to control the music. I'm looking for some magical settings in PowerAmp or phone settings that will help with this. Thanks!

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
Has anyone had any problems with PowerAmp on their bionic? Sometimes it stops playing when i have it connected to bluetooth headphones . Tried playing around with all the settings to no avail. the only way i can get it to play sometimes is by ticking the box that says play when connection resumes to BT. Basically what it does is play but it produces no sound. I've contacted the DEV multiple times and no responce
basically from someone else with the same problem
"I start playing PowerAmp
While a song is playing, I'll switch to another song (either by swiping or by pressing the "next" button)
I'll switch songs a few times, and after a few (7-10 songs) the audio will stop coming out. However, the timer will still advance, so the player thinks that the song is still playing.
During this time, all other sounds work normally, just not PowerAmp. The workaround is to kill the task using the stock task manager and then restart PowerAmp.
This is a hugely annoying bug on an otherwise great program. This bug makes it borderline unusable. It never used to happen on my old DroidX, so I'm not sure if it's related to the new phones, or if an update created this bug."
I use to have that same problem. I think i solved it since i haven't had the problem anymore. But i turned off all the fading and that seemed to work.

i will try this, thanks for the help!
thank you for the help, been using it and the fix works!
I had this problem. I switched to 2.0 beta 3 and I haven't had the problem since.

Edit: just that the rc is available. Sweet!
I have the same issue. I would use task killer then go back to Power Amp and it would start playing again. I just upgraded to 2.0 last night and we will see what happens
after the update i was confused on how to get the EQ and shuffle mode turned on from the player menu. turns out if you tap the album art in the middle of the screen itll pop up in the corners. confusing if your used to the old layout.
I had this same issue for weeks. Been really aggravating me. Glad i am not alone. I will try turning off all Fading. Thanks for the tip. I updated the app too. Hopefully the bug is gone.
When I was using my WM phones I could start a movie then lock the phone down with S2U and listen to the sound track over my BT headphones. Many days that all I could do to keep sane. But after a number of searches and different programs, I havn't found how to do that with the Thrill. I don't really want to start throwing every screen locker on my phone only to mess it up and never find one that would work for me. Anyone have any ideas?
worked it out
I'm using QQplayer and with their last update it had the option to play in background. I can hit the lock button on top and it keeps playing.
Greetings!
I have the Rocketfish RF-MAB2 Bluetooth Stereo Headset from Best Buy.
When I turn the headset on and make a phone call, then hang up, the music player or Rhapsody will start.
Also, when listening to the Audible.com App, if I use the headset to pause playback, the music app or Rhapsody will start.
Very annoying!
Anyone have the same issue or know how to solve this?
At one time I thought I saw a setting for Apps automatically starting when bluetooth is connected, can not find it now.
Also, did anyone find out how to adjust volume during a call without pulling the phone away from your face?
Thanks!
Look for headset blocker in the market.
I have an N6 on Verizon. I am rooted and unlocked running stock Android 5.0.1. If I am connected to the phone with my Plantronics bluetooth headset, every time I place a call and then hang up when the call is over, Play music launches and begins to play music. The app doesn't actually open, but music starts and play music is in the notification pull down. Anyone else having this issue or have a solution?

Thanks for the quick reply. My bluetooth has one button. I just tried pressing it and music did not start. I called my voicemail twice. The first time I hung up with the button on the phone and nothing happened. The second time I used the button on my headset to hang up and music started playing.
How would I stop this?

i havent dove into the settings for : the device itself, the bluetooth settings, or Play Music. it may be imbedded in there, or it may be unchangeable/a bug. not sure tho to be honest
Same problem
I have exact the same issue on Nexus 5x Android 6.0.1 and Plantronics M165
This is a common issue from that BT oem. One of the main reason they are not used alot.
