Hi there, I'm new to this site, so sorry if i'm being a noob here but I have a touch hd and the screen doesnt seem to go off when the media player is playing music on loudspeaker, is there a way to rectify this.
Thanks
Dave
it dont know if there is a app for this but u can only turn it of if you are listening in your headphones
ok thanks, I eventually got pocket player.
Dave
AFAIK it does this because putting the device to sleep would turn off the loudspeaker so the screen must remain on.

Hi guys....need some help. With the old version of wmp 9 i could play music whilst the PDA was off (standby, i guess) thereby saving battery power. With wmp 10 as soon as i turn it off the music stops playing.
Any ideas, or am i stuck with leaving it on when playing music???
mplayer 9 also stop playing if you turn it off
but you can turn off the screen if you set a shortcut to one button
look in mplayer10's options i'm sure it support that too
where do i get the wmp10 for xda2s?
Search the wiki for Blue Angel and you will find the latest 1.40 ROM which contains WMP 10. By the way, Gadget Boy, assign one of your hardware buttons to screen toggle like in WMP 9 and you can listen to music while the screen is off!

does anyone has the upgrade file? or anyone has extracted from the rom?

Mine doesn't I was playing music through bluetooth to the car and screen goes off and media player stops playing until I hit the power button again (I need to find out what the app name is of the media player as well so I can add it as an exception into slide to unlock)

Is that HTC media player or Windows media player?
The HTC one ( the one on the music tab) works fine streaming to my car radio with the screen off. WMP turns off with the screen tho'
I haven't found a fix for this either =( When I use my stereo bluetooth headset all is fine: I can press the power button, device goes into suspend, music keeps playing. But when I'm playing music through the speaker - as I like to do in the morning in the shower - music playback stops when pressing the power button.
I found a registry setting for the HTC audio manager (hkey\localmachine\software\htc\audiomanager_eng\config\enter_suspend) but it didn't do anything =(

It's the HTC media player (one on the tab) you don't happen to know the actual file name that is run when you select it from the tab do you?
I have the same problem with TouchFLo Music tab... power button and stop music!
I have the same problem with the built in player - Core player & Pocket music player although that freezes & generally is unstable - dunno why it was perfect on my X1.
I have a small problem (I don't think I had it before)!
when I put Music tab from TouchFlo playing and press power button the sound stops!
does it happens to you? how can I solve it?
thanks

This is the way it's meant to be.
If it's playing through speakers, the sound stops by pressing the power button. If it's playing through headphones, you can press power and it will still play.
is there anyway to change it in the registry so that we can turn the device off and still play it through the speakers. TP2 got 2 good speakers so it would be nice to leave it in the table and listen music without hearphones

I used S2U2 lastest version, run S2U2 Settings > Advanced > check on "Don't Suspend Power" > Save > Yes, and my TP2 can play music when device off
I wonder if possible cuz I want to save battery
Whenever I press the power button when playing music, the music stop. I have tried to play music and wait for the screen goes off itself but it stay on forever.
i want to know it too,
btw the backlight wont turn off automatically coz the device status is "used" while media playback
Hi
There is an answer to what you want, it called Nitrogen Player.
The Player is really (really) good as a solid MP3 player and it has a function button on-screen to turn off the display and keep playing, excellent for the battery and putting in the pocket while listening to your MP3's.
The proggy is free and is something I use all the time on my TP2, full credit to the developer.
Get it here:

Hope this helps.

I am actually using the coreplayer which also have the ability to turn off the screen while playing.
But thx anyway
Touchflo3d : plug in headphones or a headphones based accessory and it will let you turn off the screen while still playing.

wow thx so much
I am new to this forum of wonderful people, wizards and cooks. I have a problem.
I just flashed my X1 with the Phoenix ROM. Everything seems to run just fine. However the only problem is that the moment the device goes into standby or the screen completely turns off, the media player simply switches off the audio by itself. This is happening with Windows Media Player, Nitrogen and Pocket Music. Is this normal?
Previously, the music used to be on even when the device screen was switched off using the Power button.
Please help/advise on what to do. I listen to lot of Music. Desperate to get this solved.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards
sometimes i get this problem with coreplayer and sometime i don't. using valkyrie rom. weird

The attached cab should clear that up. Copy it to your phone, and run it from there, and your music should stay playing even when the screen is off
It would help if you indicate what program you are using to play music.
If you are using the HTC music player, it should keep playing if you turn of the screen, as long as headphones are plugged in.
I use coreplayer and the one that SirPhunkee posted works very well to keep the music on when screen is off.
sweet! gonna give this a try..I've tried Screen-Off cab or whatever it was called, but it didn't work IIRC..
been listening to Slacker radio while driving, especially at night, now I don't have to keep the phone screen down to avoid the brightness..
Use S2P player
