How to change the function of headset buttons? - Desire General

Is there a way of making the desire compatible with iPhone or other headsets? i.e. skipping tracks etc. When I double click the play/pause button on any of my headsets it calls the most recent person in my call history!
Surely there is a way of setting the function of each button somehow?

Anybody have any clues?

Tweak request- Mute button

Tweak request-
-Enabling the mute button on the back of the phone when you are on a BT headset or just using the handset so you don't have to mess with the screen.
-A step further: Allow you to remap the button during different situations.
Example-
While not on a call you could remap it to something like voice command or live search (or anything else you wanted)
I accidentally hit that button alot when talking with the phone held to my ear. Launching programs would be weird too as its on the back. I'm sure it can and will be done though.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm assuming that no one has come up with anything considering how old this thread is. I'm looking for the same exact thing. This would be great when using my hands-free car stereo that doesn't provide a mute button. Bump!
Either you guys haven't tried Rhodium Keyboard Controller yet, or that's not what you're looking for.
It lets you remap all hardware keys, including the mute button.

[Q] headphones controls

I just switched from cm7 to the SOS X Rom and now something weird is happening.
when I'm listening to music I double tap the headset control button to skip a song or I can tripple tap to repeat/skip to previous track. however now when I double or tripple press the dialer launches and instantly calls the latest number in my recent calls log followed by the song skipping or restarting.
does anyone know why and/or how to fix? I can't find any headset controls in the Rom settings.
I'm running the "SOS X/S/N" and the player I'm using is the "Power amp" with skullcandy FMJ ear buds.
also, if I clear my recent calls log the dialer doesn't launch. if there's something I missed let me know please.
thanks in advance for any help.

Headset button function

Hi,
I use the headset button to control my music. From what I have figured out, one press pauses/plays music... two fast presses skips the track... I have tried this, and it works. But sometimes when I double tap the button, it starts ringing the last person I called Can I turn this off? This is really annoying, I seriously do not see why anyone would want this feature.
Iv'e tried one of those headset button apps, and wasn't very impressed, It only worked half of the time.
I mainly just want to stop the button calling people
Anyone any idea?
Thanks.
If you're using PowerAMP try turning on the 'High Priority' headset button handler. If that doesn't work or you have any other music player there's a free app called 'JAYS Headset Control' (works for any headset not just JAYS). Also has a lot of customisation you can do to your headset button actions .

Bluetooth input changing

I'm thinking of purchasing a satechi Bluetooth media button to control me M9 while in the car.

The device itself isn't programmable, but I am wandering if it is possible to change how the handset responds to the various button presses. I have no use for the volume buttons in the car, but could really use an answer and hang up call button.
Is there any way I can change how the phone responds to those buttons so they can answer calls instead?
Otherwise, does anybody know of a similar device that will perform the functions I require? Mainly skip forward/backwards, pause/play and answer calls.
