I know but there was a mod I did before in the system button text and I added the lines I just cant remember what and where they go
I just use this app. It works perfectly.
App Skip Track

hello i have a problem i usually use my phone to play music ... now when my phone locks i have to unlock it with my pattern and ect to skip songs its aggravating ... does anyone know a fix for this ?? thanks
Yeah there kind of is. You can remap some buttons to act as pause/play and next track. I made it so I can press the Search button to go to the next track and the Call button to play/pause.
You can learn how to do it here.

Read the whole thing. Somewhere in the middle towards the end it goes over the commands for music control. Make sure you pay attention to the last sentence:
The added attribute "WAKE" allows it to complete the action without waking the phone.

thanks alot im going to try to understand this ...... but whats up with the original one .... that pops up on the lock screen is there any way i can add that one ... its more easier lol
Sorry, doubt there is a way to access anything before the lock pattern; that's why the lock pattern is there.

oo even when there was no pattern....the pop up music player still isnt there
What rom are you running? If it is sense based and you're using the htc luck screen, there will be music controls on the lock screen. If it's sense based and you're using vanilla or rotary lock screen, you're out of luck. If you're on darch droid (and probably froyo, but haven't tried), you can hold volume up or down to skip songs when screen is off, but no way to pause/play

thanks for the help ... im using darch .. and im using launcher pro ... it has the regular lock on it ... .. ur trying to tell me i need to have it on the sense home screen? thanks
just hold the volume buttons to skip, and use the hard key remap to change a button to play/pause. You can set a double tap on the track ball to skip forward in the music app.

,.... i just tryed to double click the ball but it didnt work .. with pattern enabled and disabled !!! ... i also have the double click feature checked in the settings of the music player.... im thinking about going to fresh ... and c if this is fixed..
edit i dont have darch i have damage control ...
well i switched to fresh and it works ... only problem now the widget sucks ... its that basic htc one eww
i think the reason it didnt work was because i was using the vanilla music player instead of the old regular music player .... solved !! In order to have the Music player while Phone is locked u Must use the older original music player to listen to music ....
Is there any way of changing the volume buttons so that it only changes the volume for media? Does any one else here find it annoying that the volume buttons are locked to ringer volume when on the homescreen?
POSSIBLE

Ah, but that requires rooting and flashing custom roms. I guess you can't do it natively then.

No.. It requires remapping of the volume keys! Can only be done with scrips or code and not from the phone itself

I just download Quick Settings , it's free in the market and you can change all the sounds levels without being rooted.
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...

WidgetLocker supports this.

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, 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.
