[Q] Volume button music control - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I love the features to control music with volume button (hold volume up = next song, hold volume down = previous song).
There is a way to have that feature in t-mobile AOSP based rom and/or in sense based rom??
I would use virtuous glite 1.0.5 or virtuous sense 2.0, but without this feature I can't leave cm7
There is a way to modify the music.apk? I really want this feature with the standard music.apk because is light and is perfect for me.
I don't understand if the cm feature is in the music.apk or in the framework, but I think framework so is not easy portable..
I searched for days something, I found only 2 apps that don't works.. (next song and rocker buttons)
Someone know anything?
I can't live without this feature, but I can't leave without virtuous glite!

no one.. ?

Sorry not an soap guy but mikg 2.6x has that feature built in. use it all the time myself when riding a bike so I get ya on how you'd like to keep it. Isn't there an app that will change the song when you shake the phone?

I don't want to shake my phone to skip songs.. I want to skip song without pulling out of the task the smartphone.
I use this feature in cm7, but I would use it in glite or virtuous sense.
I think it's possible to modify music.apk from AOSP code to add this feature, it would be great

control the music, when screen is off (Buttons)

Hey guys,
i am searching for a mod for the custom roms (i have leedroid now), where it's possible to change the music track if the screen is off.
for example by pressing the "search" button for the next and the "back" button for the previous song.
I saw that it's possible in OpenDesire and Cyanogenmod to change the track by holding the volume buttons and another mod calling "search2play".
But is it possible to do this with the other hard-buttons by giving them a special action, when you are pressing them.
Thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have been looking for this function too, I was searching media player that can do that and only one I found was astro nova... but you have to press unlock to switch to lock screen and here it is possible to switch songs by long pressing up and down volume buttons
but this is not the best solution, hope there is something better (somthing very simillar to sony ercicsson walkman features)
no idea??
Either use the headset that came with your phone or stop being lazy
I am sure there is something out there, if not, it is possible. You would need to ask a dev.
hehe fine. I'm searching now for a solution for a long time....
I tried to ask in the developers forum but i can't because i haven't got enough posts
i think it would be a great tool for the desire, if someone could create one.
How I said before: it's annoying to switch on the display if i want to play the next or previous song. I haven't got any control buttons on my earphones either- normal AKG IN-Ear.
In the Oxygen 2.0 RC7 ROM, with the screen off, you can skip tracks by a long-press of the volume buttons. Works for next track and previous on stock music player as well as a few others. Can't remember which ones...I'm using PowerAMP and it works for that.
yes i knew that but didn't try it.
so if it's possible to do that, there must be a possibility to do this with the other buttons...
I hope some of the developers read the thread otherwise i think it's a good idea to implement this function (choose a button for action) into a rom.
It is possible to re-map the buttons but I have no idea how it's done, sorry.
yes thanks. i will try to send a massage to a developer team to ask them.
but if there are any ideas please post here.

[Q] Sense ROM with Volume Button Controls?

I've been a long time user of the CM7 ROMs, and one of the most helpful additions to the ROM is the ability to use the hardware volume buttons to control music tracks, I use it everyday on my commute to work.
I'd like to try out a Sense ROM again, when I tried a few last time none of them had this feature.
Are there any Sense ROMs with this feature built-in? Or is there another way I can add it myself?

Volume key music control?

Hello, everyone!
I looked everywhere in the forum, but couldn't find something helpful. I want to make the volume keys (long press) change the song in the Music Player. While i was using MildWild rom i had no problem with that, but now that i am using Runnymede, it seems this function aint working
I found a script, which changes bravo-keypad.kl, but it removes the volume key oridnary function (volume change) in order to make the volume key change the songs. Howver i want them both to work. Any suggestions for a code change somewhere or an app, that does that (but doesnt stay always on in the notifications bar). Thank you in advance!
The only thing to change a song on my runnymede powered device is to shake.
But I personally think that the best things you could do, is to install another music player for that function.
Player Pro for example, also be sure you check out the settings for the function to include.
Also, look in the RCtweaks, maybe there you will find the change.

Volume Controls.

I already asked this, but no replies so here goes again.
When I was on Cyanogenmod (And some more AOSP) ROMS, there was this tweak called Volume Control, when your phone sleeps you can long press the volume controls to go to the next and previous song, is it possible to get this in Sense?
I'm on Android Revolution right now and I'm really missing this feature!
It's possible with the Leedroid rom.
I have token this rom because I can have the option " change the song with the volume botton"
I really like AR-HD and don't want to switch.
Is there really no mod to flash out there that will do this for me?

Mod for tw

Can anyone combine 2 mod menu kill app, music rocker control together for tw firmware, thanks
Many Roms generally in Android development have both these features. The one I am working on has volume rocker and I am messing will back to kill currently but I know others have both working already.
Thanjs for your rely, i search in 4rum but i only found custome rom or either music control or kill app mod only, can i have your mod after you done, thanka
