For the sake of Pete you would think in 2013 this would work.
Okay, before Jelly Bean I downloaded Headset Controls app and it worked okay. But, I can't get it to do anything now since the update. I don't even see why I would need an app to get this to work.
With my headset plugged in if I do a single click it opens my phone app. The long press opens Google Now(which is fine). With the screen off it doesn't do anything. This is all while playing music from the stock app and Google Music. All I care about doing is skipping tracks and pausing. I hate riding my bike or jogging and stopping to pull out my phone everytime I want to skip a song or pause the music.
I have looked all over the phone in settings, music setting, and google now settings to try and find a way to enable single button music controls. I have tried freezing the apps in Titanium Backup. And as I previously stated, Headset Controls app doesn't work at all now.
I use wireless bluetooth sometimes but the sound is just never as good as wired headsets. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm having the same problem where it opens up the phone app except I use power amp. Power amp button settings won't work and neither will my klipsch button settings the klipsch app says playermediabuttonreceiver is interfering with the app I'm just not sure how do disable it

Any idea? it's a pain not being able to switch tracks on a motorcycle
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
No, I wish I had an idea. I even emailed the developer of an app I was using and he had no idea. I feel your pain. My motorcycle is the exact reason this is causing me grief. It might be reason enough for me to switch phones.
If there was one person who hates driving on the planet I am that guy. I rode a bicycle home this morning. I own a golf cart, motorcycle, scooter, and bike. The car is for groceries, kids, ice, and snow...that's it.
So, anyone out there got a solution.

Lol, I was going to suggest trying the Headset Button Controller from the Play store, but I see you already tried it and left a comment stating that it doesn't work on our phone. Using a bit of google-fu, I found thispost on the Android subreddit that requires you to modify a few system files, but I'm unable to try it out as I'm at work right now. Seeing as how you already bought the Headset Button Controller, perhaps you could try it out and report back?
Can't, I am at class. Then I have surgery rotation on the morning.

Well no one has made one yet, so I'll do the honors.
I have seen a decrease is signal strength, but I have noticed better data speeds. I never had the LoS issue before, so I can't tell if this fixed it or not.
Source for EK02 still hasn't been released yet...
Also just a heads up Sprint updated Swype to the latest version in this update as well.
Sound bug is still there. I can't comment on LOS until I am running the new radio (currently on EG31).
What is the "Sound Bug?" And I also noticed that Samsung added arrows to the lockscreen.

Start playing a song and hit the three dot settings tab in the upper left select sound effects and turn on the EQ. You can change the EQ to to the flat setting if you want the music to sound as it did before. This fixes a lot of the music player sound issues.

Any feed back would be appreciated.

Cerbus anti theft. Its $3, but I heard its really good. You can go on your computer, and you can find your phone on it through gps.
Also if you lost it because of theft you can lock up your phone, wipe your data, record voice, send the phone messages, and stuff like that.
Here's the demo video.

I also prefer the mentioned Cerberus. It does GPS location, and sending alarms like most of these apps. The thing that stood out to me was its remote camera and audio recording abilities. Also, I use a secure lock screen. With cerberus, you can have the phone automatically take a picture using the front camera, if an incorrect pattern/password was entered, and then email that picture. Also, the app is fully functional during the trial period. It's kind of scary how much permission I'm allowing these types of apps to have, but it's a gamble I'm willing to take at the moment.

That is exactly what I would do.

After that add the task you mentioned about turning screen on through secure settings to the profile . That should work assuming a notification is received when a kik message is received
(TASKER MUST BE ENABLED AT ACCESSIBILITY SETTINGS)
Just tested this with messaging app and it worked perfectly. Leave "Title' blank when choosing app/apps

Sweet, I'm glad it worked. That was my first foray into the world of Tasker.
Back to the original thread topic: What are some things that you think people might want to see come from Tasker?
One of my biggest blocks in using it effectively is that I don't even know where to begin. I could set it up to automatically turn on wifi when I get home, but it's really not that big of a deal for me to just hit a toggle on the notification panel (same thing with using NFC tags, for me at least). I do like the lost phone texting option, but I haven't lost a phone (or gotten it stolen) in the last 10+ years of having a cell phone.
Maybe I'm just simple in my needs/wants from a cell phone, but I just don't know what type of Tasker automation I'd use regularly. Any suggestions?

Its rare that phones get stolen from geeks like us but I just have it just in case one of my buddies pull a trick or something. Its good to have just in case. However, misplacing it happens quite often for me at least.

That's a good idea, I typically leave my phone on silent (don't want it ringing loudly while at work). When the phone is between the couch cushions, I can't just ring it and listen for it. If I have a text code I can send, I can have it turn the volume all the way up and blast "call me maybe" (as a joke, of course). I just can't give that code to my friends, or else they'll send me that code when I'm in a meeting at work, haha.

I think a lot more people would use tasker if the xml files were made more centralized and available for the general user. I myself was struggling, but have it doing a few nifty things.
1) turn on wifi when near my local (home) cell tower.
2) disable wifi when no connection established for 20 seconds
3) enable screen rotate in certain apps (since I like mine in portrait normally).
4) enable bluetooth when docked in the car and disable after disconnecting
5) turn off all sound when sitting on my qi charger
6) allow calls from certain people even in silent mode (ie emergency calls from family)
7) play unique ringtone for people not in my contact list
Haha, I just use Where's My Droid, it has the built-in ringing functionality where you can text it a codeword if you misplace it / lose it, and its also great for when you ACTUALLY lose it lol

Hey guys, I am over on the Sprint forums. I need help trying to see if you guys have the same problems with the wired headset controls I am. Also, if you know of a fix that would be stupendous.
The issue is the pause/play feature doesn't work with the native music app or Google Music. You also can't skip tracks or any other feature.
If music is playing and you click the button once it opens the dialer. If the screen is off it did nothing at all. I have tried various headset control apps on the market with no luck. A few of these apps have a debugging setting. The app will notify you when you click the headset button so you can try and get the app to work. As you can already guess nothing shows when you click the button.
Thanks for the help!

Seems more related to keylayout. Maybe the mic button is mapped to voice dialer or something like that.
Well, it should work in two ways. When no music is playing the single button push should open the dialer. The single long press should open voice actions.
Now, I am not sure how it is suppose to work while music is playing. It seems like I have had one phone that would only control music with the screen off.
I agree there is a mapping issue. How do you think it is suppose to work while music is playing? Does the screen being off or on matter? There should be some way to pause/play and skip tracks without pulling out your phone and changing it in the music app.
Thanks for the reply.

Hmm, if it has different option then it's not in keylayout but in the framework. Whitin the framework it's easy to tell if it's playing music or not. Where in the framework, i don't know.
I have the same problem. I posted the same post problem and nobody wrote on it. I plug it in and the button does nothing off and when it's on it goes to dialer. I've used all of the key mapping apps like sound about and headset controller and it won't fix it.
Also, on player pro there's an option to override the button and that function does not work at all

Bump for 3 button issues.
Working perfect with stock Rom, LG Headphones and poweramp, press 2/3 times for next/previous song and 1 for play/pause
Still won't work for me.

I don't see any other post covering this, so I'm bumping.
Same here. using the same one, I've tried, poweramp, winamp, google music, stock music, and most of those have options to take control of the headset buttons for music. I even tried a few apps on the play store made for overriding headset controls to make music buttons. No matter what I do, It always opens the dialer when I click instead of pausing my music.
I listen to my music on my motorcycle, and I can't exactly pause my music while I'm riding, so if I'm probably gonna have to try some custom firmwares if I can't get this figured out.
AOSP seemed like the only thing that worked.

Hey guys, I am over on the Sprint forums. I need help trying to see if you guys have the same problems with the wired headset controls I am. Also, if you know of a fix that would be stupendous.
The issue is the pause/play feature doesn't work with the native music app or Google Music. You also can't skip tracks or any other feature.
If music is playing and you click the button once it opens the dialer. If the screen is off it did nothing at all. I have tried various headset control apps on the market with no luck. A few of these apps have a debugging setting. The app will notify you when you click the headset button so you can try and get the app to work. As you can already guess nothing shows when you click the button.
Thanks for the help!

I have had the same issue. LG says they have had no complaints and want me to send them the phone. Every LGOG I have tried at the Sprint stores have the same issue.

Same here. I switched phones. It was too annoying.

Called LG today and the tech told me that the phone was designed for Sprint to work with bluetooth headphones, not wired headphones. Would have been nice to now before I purchased the phone.
Same problem - bizarre
can't believe this. Just switched from iPhone, it was terrible not being able to run software I wanted, but at least it knew what to do with a button press.
Still nothing on this?
Still on stock rom, does CM handle this better?
