Can anybody confirm if ICS properly handles headset button actions unlike how it got messed up again in gingerbread...

Just tried headphones, I'm a bit stunned, it only does pause(1click) and next song (2clicks) how annoying!!!! The volume up and down doesn't work for some reasons

Does it handle apps that have focus, properly?

On my VZW GN, headset button presses seem to only interact with Google Music. If I'm playing a podcast in PocketCasts and I press the headset button, it not only doesn't pause the podcast, but it also starts Google Music in the background and starts playing a random track!
I bought the Klipsch s4a. They have an app in the market that adds functionality. It mostly worked but was a little buggy and laggy so I stopped using it. I'm sure the button hardware on them is no different from other one button headphones including the ones that come with the phone. Give it a shot. Admittedly I have not used it since my nexus s on stock gingerbread.

I test my Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Vi on a friends EVO before I bought mine and they worked like a champ. They also worked fine on my EVO until around the time of the last OTA update. Now they won't control my music player Mixzing anymore and also won't answer calls. I'm fairly certain they aren't broken so curious if anyone has had a similar experience?
Thanks!
I have the same headphones. How do you control the music?

One click to pause, a second click to begin playing again. 2 fast clicks to skip a song. When the phone rings clicking the button will answer.
You have to use an app that supports the controls like Mixzing. There is a setting to enable headset controls.
FWIW, I did a hard reset and the controls began working. Not sure where / how it got tweaked but that was it. Working now.
Thanks alot.

Hello,I figure someone here knew
Is there an app that will work on ics, that will allow going to next song using our holding down volume button?

Build 19 of AOKP Rom can do this

A guick Google search found PlayerPro which seems to do it, but I don't know anything about the player...
PowerAmp has had good reviews, and I think it might do it as well.
If you're using custom ROM, it is already included in Bigxies v.9. (GSM) (CDMA)
Otherwise I guess it is in CM as well...

if using headphones.....
Did you know the supplied headphones will skip to the next track if you do a quick double clip on the headphone cable pause button
Haved you tried cubed?

I used to use it on my old phone and it supported skipping songs by holding volume.

Those supplied headphones with the phone aren't necessarily "top quality."
To follow up, found nothing with power amp
Used player pro trial, and it has shake to skip song which works great if anyone is interested
So no need to wake up screen every song change, with screen closed, share it and it skips song.
Comes in handy at work where I don't have skip buttons on headphones

Just purchased the 2 on release day for full price and so excited to try out Samsung. I am a heavy music listener and have to use headphones. I tried the set I purchased for my last phone HTC brand in Amazon and the stock ones that came with the phone (Samsung) and for the love of all mighty I am unable to get the darm things to skip/fast forward. The only thing it does is lower the volume or raise it. WTF that's what the volume buttons on the phone are for.
I have been all over the settings in the phone and the music players and unable to find anything that looks like it would help. This is doing it while on stock and power amp music players. Also I am running stock if that helps.
Has anyone figured it how to get that to work and if so how?
Thanks,
A desperate man who wants to skip. Lol
Lol I had the same issue downloaded an app called headset button controller it's only a trial but it's working great. There was another free app that I plan on trying out as well called JAYS headset control try out either see which one u like best. I don't think u can use the volume button to skip tracks but the third button on the controller can do it all skip/play/stop/previous just by double/triple/quadruple tapping using those apps.

Headset button control seams to be working tried Jays and not supported yet. Either way life saver. Thank you. Now ill have to work ony button speeds.
I'm having issues on my One X with headset events firing randomly, causing music to start playing at random times even when the headset is not plugged in. I'm using the CM10 nightlies, but I have been unable to find any controls for headset functions except in PowerAmp, so I installed Headset Droid which wasnt very helpful in diagnosing or blocking the events.
The music issue occurs with Apollo and with PowerAmp. The only solution I've found is to use PowerAmp and completely disable responding to headset events at all, but then i cant skip tracks, answer calls or use google now.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any solution? Is it a known issue with the One X?
I used power amp on my HTC dhd and it messed with the volume controls after I uninstalled it and used the stock music app I had to install it again and change the headset button actions to default. You shouldn't use poweramp I just haven't had a good experience.

Hello guys,
As we know, since JB was lauched, the headset button is kinda useless when we're listening to music. When we long-press the button, google now activates and music stops. It's really annoying, because we have to take the phone out from the pocket to just go to next song. It's not good to have to expose our expensive phone for a so simple task.
I know there's a solution for this problem on HOX+, but I didn't find anything for us.
Any help?
Try headset button controller in play store. It has orange headphone icon. The dev has a workaround so 1click. Play 2click. Skip etc.
