i searched around on this forum without luck, for a tool that enables to put my device in standby while playing music without headphones.
I want to be able to push the powerbutton so the sceen goes off. but the music still be playing
I have always done this with my Tilt, never had to do anything special. Did it with 6.0, 6.1, and 6.5.
Try a program called S2P (Slide 2 Play). It keeps playing when the screen turns off.
Look for the keyboard remapper by Tarkim on this board. I have used it to program a button to do just that function. Turns the screen off but leaves the music playing through the speakers.
pocket player allows you to do this as well.
nitrogen does it also. plays while on standby
this creates the option to soft reset, turn phone off, or turn screen off when you click and hold the power button:
I play music a lot with my phone, but one thing that is bugging me is that when music is playing you can't sleep your phone without the music stopping. Is there anyway that i can get the music to keep playing when i sleep my phone
Yea I am having the same issue I mean it isnt terrible but it does waste alot of battery life over time. If there is a way to have it still play even after locking the screen that would be great!
Try this cab, its a registry tweak that continues the music audio when you press the standby button.
***soft reset after install.
different player
i like kinoma- i purchased the full version, but they also have kinoma freeplay, that i used for a long time. it allows you to turn the screen off, but doesn't interfere with the music. it also saves the location in an audio file that it was playing at, so if it is a podcast or something that you are listening to, you don't have to scroll to find where you were when you shut it off.
You could also try Nitrogen. It has a button to shut off the screen and keep the music playing.
I just go to the Backlight settings, let the screen dim in 10seconds and "turn off screen" in 1 minute. After one minute, the screen will be off, but the music is still playing.
How do you resume play using the headset button instead of having to turn the screen on and tapping play? This is super annoying how I have to take my phone out of my pocket every time I want to resume.
It works if I pause, then play in a few seconds, but if I wait a few minutes, I have to turn the screen on....
Seems to work with me on stock 4.0.2 and the included Samsung headset. Today I stopped listening to music for over 2 hours, then just put the headphones in, hit the button, and it started playing.
I just timed it, I paused for 3:30 and tried to resume but it doesn't work unless I tap the scteen
I get that, too. I think it has to do when the phone goes into deep sleep. I don't remember if it happened in stock roms as well. I've been on custom 4.0.3 rom since practically the day I bought the phone.
You don't really have to tap on the screen to resume. Waking up the phone via the power button will make it respond to the headset button input. So instead of whipping out the phone every time, you can just reach into your pocket and press the power button then press the headset button. It's a poor workaround, though.

Still don't have to. It can be sitting on the table for 20min and I can put the headphones in and start music. And its not like I'm doing anything fancy. Set up Google Music normally and haven't messed with it. Just works.

Try this, pause the music, DO NOT unplug the headphones and let it sit around for 30 secs or so, then press the headset button to resume playback. If I unplug the headset while paused then plug it back in, headset button will work.
I has this happen.. I hit the button two times and it responded finally. I was using poweramp though.

1) headphones in
2) started song, turned off screen & listened for a couple minutes
3) pause with headphones
4) sit for ~3 min screen off
5) screen still off, headphones in, hit button
6) music starts playing instantly.

Well, it doesn't work for me. It might be a custom ROM or 4.0.3 thing.
I typically run into this when I use the bluetooth audio in my car. With my Nexus One running CM7 I was always able to just sit down, wait a couple seconds for bluetooth to connect, and hit play, all without having to take the phone out of my pocket.
With Galaxy Nexus running stock 4.0.2 the bluetooth still automatically connects when I turn the car on, but play/pause doesn't work until I open up Music and manually hit play. Will try just powering phone on briefly tomorrow.
For those who say they can't reproduce this: have you disconnected your phone from power? The phone doesn't appear to ever enter deep sleep while on a charger, so if it has something to do with deep sleep as someone suggested, that would prevent this.
Mine is not on power when this happens. I am away from my desk a lot at work and I pause/resume frequently to talk to coworkers. So this is very frustrating for me.

Mine works the same whether plugged in or not, I should add.
Same thing happens to mine. I have a single button inline mic on my headphones. One the Nexus One, I could hit the button at anytime to play and it worked just fine. Now I have to double tap the button to get it to work. And it's not completely reliable. I sometimes have to spam the button to get it to come alive.
This is odd because according to my battery usage, my phone hardly ever goes into deep sleep, yet the headphone controls have trouble waking the phone.
I've tried this with UberMusic and Google Music using my headphones and Bluetooth receiver in my car, where it struggles even more. It just doesn't readily respond to the button input. Basically the same problem as this guy: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24364
Anyone come up with a solution
hello.
I thought I had a hardware problem with my Galaxy S2 and posted a thread about it in the i9100 forum.
but some googling brought me to this page. I have the same problem, and seeing how you guys are on different hardware makes me suspect (hope for) a software solution.
any help would be greatfully accepted, this is really annoying.
a better work around for the moment is to install Jays Headset Control from the market, it's free. there is an option somewhere in there that 'beeps' whenever you press the button. so now when the phone is in my pocket i can press and hold until i hear the beep, which means i can then press again to continue playing.
hope that helps a bit.
currently running android 2.3.6
When I'm streaming music from my phone through GMAA, it works great. However, my personal, uploaded files always tend to stop about 2 minutes into each song of where I need to 'wake up' my phone by pressing a volume key or turning on the screen.
I do have it whitelisted on the Battery Optimization settings running stock MM (rooted). Anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
Hi,
i have a Joying single 1din 8" Unit with Android 4.4.4 (DE-JY-UQS01) in my Jeep Grand Cherokee.
I have a Problem with the App Poweramp and other MP3 Player Apps. When I turn off the Ignition and start the Car later, It doesn't continue The Playback on the last Track, it starts always another track from the beginning (after a short time the Radio is off (2 Minutes) the resume works).
What I have found is that the music title short time continues in the background (when I pulled the car keys and the radio shuts down)
I think it has to do with the standby/hibernate?
Does anyone have a Solution für this Problem?
Thanks!
I've seen the same thing in the Music app as well as PowerAmp, my standby time is setup as 5 minutes
I believe the only thing you could do is to pause the song before you turn the ignition off
