Hi, does anyone have a mod where you can either hold or press the volume buttons twice to skip to previous/next tracks for stock Walkman app?
I don't want to bring the lock screen up everytime just to change songs.
Xposed Xperia tweaks for Kitkat has this feature. You have to be rooted though.

May I ask why after some days you say exactly the same thing as I did?

is there a way to add options when we long press the power button? optionto not only shutdown the phone but also reboot.
The CyanogenMod (CM7) ROM, does this. If you can live with that ROM (or any ROM based on that), I can highly recommend this one from wgspoelstra.
does it have the 64RAM hack (freeing up an extra 64 mb ram)
Yes, CM7 uses the vorkKernel which has this hack.
thanks! i have the WGSPOELSTRA on my phone, working great, i am on v.26, i haven't updated to the latest because i'm seeinig some negative feedback on the release
It would be great to use the volume buttons to unlock the screen.
Anyone knows if it could be plausible?
i can't find it again...i knew i found an option that does that... now i'm not sure if it's in the slick custom roms or the WGSPOELSTRA's

Whilst it is possible with stock it's a lot of framework edits. I took a look and hacked together a reboot proof of concept... you have to call an existing function and LG have obfuscated this function in their framework...

Brilliant. I love LG 2X but the power button at the top and volume buttons on the right are a big fail in my opinion. I might be too use to the layout on SGS.
Having said that I don't mind if there is a workaround and this for me is perfect. Thanks.
Hello,
Can't find any option / thread that talks about this, on the SGN.
Is it possible to change tracks (next / previous) by long pressing the volume keys (either on the phone or on the headphones)? How? Third party app? Which?
I'm running ICS 4.0.4 LRG with SGS3 Music Player patch.
Thanks,
I don't think there's a system wide option for that in stock roms. It's present in CM9 and other custom roms.
You can however use it with PowerAmp on any rom, you need to enable it in the app's settings though.
+1 ^^
Its a mod, So it wont work with the stock music player, Theres a mod for it in the themes n apps section.
It also works with PlayerPro (what I use)
EDIT: Theres a few apps on the play store what might help, some are free some are paid https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&r...kPDICg&usg=AFQjCNHvRei_nrOsfmAxgPVXuIgOYQbBvw

I have installed Poweramp Music Player (Trial) but it seems that the long press is not working on the note. In the options I can only find options for the headset and, even enableing that, doesn't work. Maybe it doesn't work with the Volume rockers on the device itself, only with headset (I don't have here my headset to test).

Can you pinpoint me to the thread with that MOD? I've searched and couldn't find it.
That app is just for headset, also. I would like to use also de volume keys on the Note.
Its actually part of RocketROM, Its the tweakbox app that allows this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654838 But it only works for headphones, Why would you need to use the phones volume keys ? Your obviously holding the phone so you can just touch skip on the lock screen
And the soundpackage Mod with beats and walkman music app is https://dl.dropbox.com/u/69014495/SoundPackage_RocketRom.zip
Also, For your poweramp issue, To skip track you need to double click the play button (if you have one? I do on my beats headphones) Same applies to the stock music app too i believe (havent used it for a long time)

Well, I don't always use an headset with keys and its easier to put the hand in the pocket and long press the volume to change track than take it out, unlock the screen, go to the player and skip track.
Anyway I'll test tonight the original headset with the buttons, and PowerAmp.
Thanks.
haha when you put it like that I guess it is
keep us posted !
Hi there, after flashing android 4.3 on my xperia V, the screenshot option when press power button doesn't appear

You can use power + volume down button (press together and wait a bit) for screenshot

I'm on rooted xperia z1
I have 5 button softkey already with xposed framework but I want to have power button softkey how can I do that? please help
Not sure I have seen that mod anywhere
It is possible to remap a different hardware button for that, for example I use volume up as my power button
With a soft key it would also be impossible to power on the phone...

does xposed go down to hardwarelevel?
sure you can remapp your power button while android is turned on, due to the layers between hardware and UI. but as soon as it's powered off your power on button should work the normal way.
i don't really know, but im curious
No, I have to use the power button to turn on, that's why I said it would be impossible with a softkey
However, I can use the volume up button to wake the device like power button does. You wont be able to do that with a softkey
thanks all
I'm already on it, figure it out how
thanks anyway

Look for xposed additions module to remap keys
I use my volume up button for the power button all the time, the only thing it wont do is turn it on, it will wake, send to sleep and long press brings up the reboot menu

Why did you have to do that? Is your power button dying?
Kinda worried now... does this happen a lot on the Z1? The phone can't be that old, it's been out for 12 months!?

firstly I did because I could. I like playing around and changing stuff
But also when I hold my phone my thumb naturally goes to that spot, so I thought why not change the button..

Ah ok. Very true. The power button's position is a bit awkward in that respect. Bit difficult to press when using just one hand, either left or right.
I guess Sony assumed everyone would use such a big phone with two hands at all times.

We knew about feature "Long Volume Skips Track" by using volume button to next track music when screen off. But when use it frequently, volume button may be damaged. Idea is used camera button (press focus) instead of button volume. Anyone know how to do that ????
Sorry for my bad English !!!!
- Update (27/07/2014) : I found a module xposed can do it. This is Xposed Additions (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spazedog.xposed.additionsgb).
No idea or way to do this ???

You can use Xperia Xposed (KK) to PAUSE the music by camera button. (not sure if it works on Z2 because I don't have one). To use Xperia Xposed app you need to be rooted and have xposed installer btw.
I tried it but i can't not go to next song

Yeah. As I said it can only PAUSE the music with camera button.

Setting :
