For headphones? Is this function even possible with the 3.5mm jack that's on our phone? I have one of these for my iPod touch, but I trying to ween myself off of the Apple teet.
The stock HTC version of froyo (with sense and whatnot) will work with an iphone headset natively. But only to play/pause and deal with calls. It wont skip tracks fwd/back or fast fwd or adjust the volume.
HOWEVER, you can get a free app in the market called droidshuffle. It adds track skipping and a few other minor features. But, the current version doesn't work with the HTC music player. So you can either install a 3rd party player called cubed or the default android player (if you can find the apk on a forum).
The droidshuffle dev is working on a new version that will also work the the HTC player. I've been trying the beta and it seems to work fine. While cubed and the default android player are fine I like using the HTC player because it gives you lockscreen controls too.
These work perfectly for me, shipping takes forever but the price makes up for it

Yeah I have the same and they're okay. The sound quality is crap but they're made by HTC so at least all of the buttons work properly. I use mine to control doubleTwist.

Some shipping and soldering would take care of that problem. Anyone know if a Bluetooth remote exists that doesn't output audio?

Is there a simple way of adding avrcp 1.3/ metadata transfer to the Bluetooth stack in a ROM like Miui or does it need to be added by the developer? I have heard the latest BlueZ stack has it. It would be good to have the track info displayed on my car stereo.

Any if them. Power amp is a great app for music, I like it a lot.

It's not the rom that made sound quality, but the phone and the headset. What do you use as earphone ?
Get any sense 3.5 rom, make sure it has beats plugin in the stock music player. Choose srs enhancement and play the song...nothing can beat that quality.

So true. Rom or music player won't do anything much, except for some which have dspmod in it. The point is a good headset is the key for a good music. Plus an amp if you could afford one. :hehe:
if you have a long journey than sure you need better battery life install cm7 and with power amo or player pro or winamp or even the stock one with dsp manager should work fine
Thanks for all the posts guys! Know beats aren't loved here but I've got a pair of studios (I got them cheap off a friend not stupid enough to pay more than they are worth). I went with a sense 3.5 rom in the end with power amp and it was great! The only thing is...on quite a few roms, I experience this annoying thing!! Sometimes while listening to music...I'll unlock the screen and this weird noise interrupts the song...sometimes it happens when I lock the phone aswell. Its not the headphones coz it happens with all my headphones :/ I thought it may be rom related but its not

dig into the advance audio engine settings of poweramp. increase the buffer size to 750ms. should make that go away.

Trying that now...will report back although I've switched to primo s sense 4.0 Rom and the problem seems to be gone :/

Try different Sense 3.5 Rom if you are enabling beats audio. I've noticed that each some Roms don't give the fill Beats experience. It also could just be me. Also flash the xperia xLoud engine found on the Rom that combines rc mix and virtuous. I can't post links cause I'm considered a new member. I find that funny since I have been using this site for 1.5 years yet never signed up till now.
I'm on a sense 4.0 Rom and the problem seems to be gone been on this Rom for 2 days now and haven't experienced the problem! I know what Rom ur talking about....from xxxpachaxxx. That's the Rom I just switched from because of the problem

Finally on the 3.5 Rom you were talking about I didn't have any fuzziness but I did experience increased battery drainage while listening to music compared to other Roms.

power amp
i have tested a lot of music apps on a few phones and need to say that first of all the phone is responsible for the sound quality. Off course the headset is important parallelly ( i use denons plugs which i think are good enough). There is no doubt though that players quality differs. In my opinion power amp is the best ever app to play music on the android phone. You can adjust the sound as much as possible. PLayer pro seems to be good too but there is a kind of whisle noise in the background playing continously and it's disqualifying the app completelly. Other apps are not worth even trying
Amazon MP3?
I know some groan at the thought, but Amazon MP3 is also pretty decent. It's got a built-in EQ with some preset settings, and if you buy music from them at all, it's nice because it will interface directly with your Cloud account. You could d/l a bunch of stuff from your Cloud to your phone (if you have the room) before you go on your journey.
It's not the only music app I use, but it's not bad.
Anyone have good experiences with AOKP Cyanogen AOSP ports floating around in the development forums?
I need it bad for in car music really, cant live without a working bluetooth audio stream..

I am currently using Cyanogen Domination but if you want to stream music via bluetooth beware. I don't use the car port but I am using bluetoth headphones and I have to unpair/pair every time I want to use them. There are other ROMs that don't have this problem LeeDroid and Bindroid for example. So my advice with any Cyanogen rom is to find if there are any bluetooth streaming issues
Are there any kernels/ROMs that support AVRCP 1.3 or higher (viewing the song info via bluetooth)? The track buttons work great in my car, but there is no song info / metadata.
If there aren't any currently, is this something that devs will be able to implement? Or is this a hardware limitation? Thanks!

AOKP M6 has it implemented but it's ICS, no JB ROM has it yet AFAIK
question does AVRCP also support browsing the music on my phone via headunit? because i on my pioneer unit i see the metadata on google music on any stock JB firmware except on CM10.
cuz if AVRCP lets me browse then i have to sacrifice jellybean
AVRCP 1.3 works in the ROM
