Use an app called wakelock on the play store and select the first option "PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK"

NO that does not work

Not being rude but if you want just the audio why not convert them to an audio file? Then you can just turn the screen off.
There loads for windows/mac/linux and even a few for android.

yeah that is one solution but i really want to know how to turn off the screen with video still playing, cause i dont want to have both audio and video files separately for the same media file

This app has a play in background option which should be what you're looking for

I have finally got my phone from the shop that mucked it up and unlocked it myself. However, one thing that is annoying me at the moment is that as soon as I switch the screen on, the weather/time widget makes a sound dependant upon the weatrher. Could someone please tell me how to turn this off as it is really annoying me lol.

Volume level problem (HTC One V)

This is happening with me regularly. If I set the ringtone/notification volume low during office hours, it automatically increases if I answer a call or make a call. And similarly if I am at home and have kept my volume at max, it automatically get reduced to minimum level on answering/making call. Its really annoying bug and not sure if it Android 4.0 or HTC bug
Also I am not sure how to notify HTC of such many more bugs found in One V
Maybe you have the option enabled which automatically lowers the ringing, in case of an incoming call, when the phone is moved. Check out the settings to see if you do.

Man, these are end user 'bug'. Stop *****in' about HTC's quality when you are not able to change some settings in your phone, buy a nokia 3310.
Htc has provided some high quality phones since HTC Hero till now. My phone has so many years and it's still the same. No hardware problems at all, the battery is still the same, display also.
Before entering in a forum and post something stupid like this, try and turn your phone up side down, enter in every menu, set every setting available...
I agree, I'm impressed with my current htc! It's absolutely sensational
The problems you mentioned aren't problems at all, they're just settings that come by default and can of course be changed.

Haha lol no I'm pretty sure he's not
the default settings are set, wherein first the phone would ring low and if you don't pick it up the ringing will increase. Another thing is that the volume will decrease if the phone is moved while ringing..!
But these can be turned off in the settings so no reason for it to be an issue! Jeezzzzz people! :what:

Hi, even I am facing same issue with HTC Desire V which I bought 1month back. Ring tone volume is getting increased or decreased automatically without my interaction. Even flashing is done at HTC Service Centre. But, the issue is not resolved yet.
Please help to resolve this issue

Huh? Why did you bump a 5month old thread? And what's with this desire v thingy? This is an HTC one v forum.
Anyways, pl. check your settings.

Hi,
Even i am facing the same issue, the ringtone change abruptly.
I noticed that the volume gets changed to the that of the volume of the last income call, after making an outgoing call. Its a bug in this phone.
If u disable the flip for speaker option everything works well.

Heat

Hi just got my one x. She's getting hot a lot. Might be a stupid question but is it possible to turn two of the cores off? As I said might be a stupid question
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
The problem isnt that all your cores are turned on, but the heat is because only 1 of your cores are turned on. Please go to google play, type into search "hidden settings", download the app, then in the newly created power saver settings (its between the apps) turn off the second option (decrease speed of the CPU, or something like that, my app isnt english) and now you will have a colder but faster HOX

not sleeping as in the cpu is not in deep sleep or the screen remains unlocked? If the screen remains unlocked then check your screen time out settings. if the cpu is not in deep sleep then it may be a kernel issue(didn't repacked when you're supposed to).
Thanks and double thanks....
Saved me from resetting...
My 1 yr kid reached the quicksettings when i was in sleep mode

I'm not sure whether the apps can do it or not, but you can check some parental control apps to see whether you can disable your kids from changing the settings so that things like these won't happen again

How to turn off screen without sleep on

I am wondering if I turn off my screen is there any way to prevent it from going to sleep if I mod htc v? I am using my htc one as a dedicated webcam and is using an app called ip webcam. It does have features that can prevent it from going to sleep but it lags whe. The screen is off.
Plug it in and have the dev settings to never turn off screen while plugged in. And turn brightness way down. Hope this helped

Already done that but when screen is turned off the processor is slowed down therefore the video is slowed down.
Use Screen Standby
