Hi, so if some of you didn't noticed yet, on the HTC free hand set coming with the phone, there is two buttons.
Button 1 and 2 which can both be pushed simply or be pushed & held.
Actually thoses buttons have quite an useless purpose as they are for button 1 as it seems "End call" and "dial last call" and button 2 if held "voice dial". (Maybe there's even only one button, the thing is actually quite dodgy).
What would be awesome would be to make a little .cab that would mod those buttons to lets say :
Button 1 simple click : Next Song in TF3D player
Button 2 simple click : Previous Song in TF3D player
Button 1 Hold : End call / Redial (Or volume +)
Button 2 Hold : Something like : Mute or unmute (Or volume -)
Whatever the idea is there, and it's up to you fancy devs now

Hi
I am looking for a little cab for my HTC headset
It has not been made! I'm very sure!
it must have the following funtions:
All for the Sense music tab!
When NOT in a call:
Long press : Play / pause
Pressed twice : Next song
(If possible:
Pressed three times: previous song
pressed shot : call)
When you are being called:
short press: pickup / hangup
PLUS
The hardware buttons (buttons on the PHONE) MUST be disabled,
But ONLY when the headset is plugged in!
With no headset plugged in everything should be as normal!
Could some developer please make this?
Maybe you can use code from the following:

Great Greet Giblet
Any developers?
Second this idea except short if not configurable, developer could look at a simlar app for audio manager
Yeah thats what i mean =D
I will update main post
Is there any app or customization out there that can skip music with long press on the volume rocker? This is a feature I miss, which the iPhones had, I hate having to press the unlock button (which is already annoying) and then change music, I want to be able to change music without touching the damn screen, any info would help.
Thank You

At times like this I wish I knew how to create/modify ROMs.

The only option was to go on a custom ROM, Cyanogen ROM 6.1 RC2, which I have done, it's awesome.
You could always just use the headphones that come with the phone

First you would need to install a nolock app or widget, I use Lock Screen Switch widget but No Lock is good also if you prefer an app. Then you would need to install the button remapper or one like it in this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464 . I think then you would be able to do it.
thanks, i will try
i've found a better solution,
just download the "Headset Volume Controller" Widget, than put it on your home screen and activate the Widget
than in the htc music player, the controlls are working as follow:
middle klick
play/pause
top/bottom klick
while playing->volume control
while pausing->last/next track
so if you want to skip a track, just click once on the middle button to pause, and the up/down keys work as track control, otherwise while playing the keys work as volume control
works with my htc desire hd and the standard music player.
now there is a much better solution, now it acts exact like the iPhone headset control.
just download the "Headset Volume Controller" Widget, than put it on your home screen and activate the Widget
after that download and just install this app "Headset Button Controller"
now the headset control works like on the iphone:
1x (middle button) play/pause
2x (middle button) skip track
3x (middle button) last track
+/- Volume Up/Down
How to change the function of the volume keys?
A problem of having fewer buttons on the phones is that you must turn on the screen for any little thing.
In jailbroken Apple devices can install an application that lets you change the function of the physical buttons depending on whether you give a push, two, press and hold ...
I would like to remap the function of the volume buttons to give a long press to make the PLAY / PAUSE.
I got it for a single pulse but this way I lose the original function of the key.
Could anyone help me?
Thank you very much.
Might Work
Or if you're up to it...
Do it manually
I got something similar to what I intended.
I got that with a single press of volume down makes me PLAY / PAUSE and having you hold me down the volume. So do not lose their original function.
The solution has been.
1, Modify the / system / usr / keylayout / tuna-gpio-keypad.kl
on the line that reads: key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE
replace: key 114 HEADSETHOOK WAKE
This I achieved the volume down key button functions do that comes in the headset. PLAY / PAUSE and take calls.
2 ° Install the application JAYS Control Headset or similar.
Set the Volume Down key so that when the left turn the volume down (the application lets many other combinations but I like it).
Does not happen a lot but when I take the phone from my pocket, it happens I grab it and press on the volume (up) button.
Pressing on the volume button (long press) does not only increase by one notch the volume, it increases the intensity as long as I press on the button. In less than 3 seconds, the volume is maxed destroying my ears.
What I would like => Long press does not increases more than one notch the volume. If I want to increase by another notch I have to repress on the buttom.
Long press could be used to skip to the next song. Blackberry had that, I don't know why my galaxy can't do that.
I bought poweramp music player but I was not able to use the double/triple press nor the long press feature to skip to next song.
I am running jelly beans and I was also doing that previous version.
I'm pretty sure most Android phones continue raising the volume if you hold down the volume key, but the S3 does it really fast! If there was a way to lower the repeat rate I'd love to see it.
As for those options in Power Amp, they only refer to headsets with media controls; not the on-device buttons

Yea, volume goes up way too fast. The S3 is not a very nice music player due to that, if you do sport you have to check your phone to skip music while you could do it just by long pressing - no need to take it out of your pocket or look at it!

Is it possible to change so that i can use the volume buttons to skip forward and backwards in music?
As currently, i have to drag my finger, and i don´t know if it´s my phone or the apps, but it isn´t always perfect, sometime it doesn´t sense that i drag, so i have to spam it.
And anyhow, it´s very hard to make fast small skips. For example, i listen to an Audio Book, i don´t hear a word randomly, so i want to back like 5 secs.
Well i have to first press the home button to get the screen lit up. Then Unlock the phone (i know i can disable this).
And finally i have to drag 5 secs back. And while it is possible if the clip is very short, like 30-1 min. But when it´s 4-5min, it´s pretty impossible.
So if i could make the volume buttons work as a skip button when i play music, it would be perfect.
