At night time I often have the phone under my pillow so I can listen to music quietly, instead of leaving it on the nightstand.
I figured using the volume keys might be a sensible approach, but then realized that would just change the volume.
I was wondering if anyone has figured a way (either through an app or Tasker) to change tracks without turning the screen on and touching the phone?
I think the Nottach mod has a feature to change tracks by holding the volume buttons.

Thank you for the info.
I was hoping for an app (or Tasker profile) instead of changing my ROM as right now, I am quite happy with rooted stock.

Hi there, just curious if this can be done on the SGS. It would really come in handy when the phone is in the pocket, just hit the volume rocker or SHAKE the phone to skip a track. That's awesome isn't it. Any app that can do that?
There is an app called Shake2PlayNext in the market for free, as well as others.. I tried it once but it's too difficult to calibrate when you walk with you phone in your pocket..
I don't know if the same could be done for the volume keys, I think you need a mod for that. I could be interesting though

Welcome everyone! I will make simple & clear.
All you need to do is you need to press home button and power button at the same time. Wasn't that simple? Hope you enjoy!

Neat!!! I looked over the internet and found a lot of button combination like home+back+volume up buttons but none of them worked. Thanks! (deletes screen shot app)
Question: why is it that every time I take screenshot of a video, nothing appears?
I have no idea, maybe you can't do it while watching a video.

Is it possible to get the tube tv effect when I put my screen to sleep on the stock rom?
??
Its called crt animation and not on stock roms! Im sure in time there will be a custom rom that will contain that soon

Try this
There's an app that I used on my TF101. It is a shortcut that locks your screen with a variety of effects:
Screen off and lock
It's free in the Play Store. No root required.
I dont want a custom rom on this phone.

What are you talking about? Did you even try to install the app that I linked to?
Lol
my bad, I meant to reply to tyshemi, not you. I did install that app. It does not work with the power button, and the animation is not as nice..=
The CRT off animation doesn't play well with JB from what I've seen a couple devs say, which is why it isn't even on the custom ROMs, so chances of getting it on a regular phone are slim and none I'd say.

I never said it worked with the power button. It's an icon you can tap; might actually be nicer. But I'm sorry to hear that you don't like it as much!

Thanks for the info. I kind of like the tv static plus crt close.
I have the off button on my screen now. For when I actually remember to use it, vs muscle memory of hitting the physical button.

No problem! Just a word of caution - When I use this in combination with WidgetLocker the unlock doesn't work. I had to turn the screen off with the power button then it worked again. Most likely caused by the way that WidgetLocker is an app and not a system function.
I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
Give me a minute to shower and I'll write you an app. All you have to do is install my app, reboot, grant it root access, and profit.

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.
SWEEET!!! Works like a charm thanks dude! Like I said, I've been searching for this forever! I know that many others have been searching for this, perhaps you should make a thread in the mods section.

I'm using the "[ROM] [T210R/T210] KidzRom by gr8nole". Is it somehow possible to turn off the background music in the kids-launcher(where the Dog is sitting on the App-cards)? Is there a file to edit? Where is the location of the soundfile?
I know where to adjust the volume, but if you raise the volume in an app, its annoying when you close the app or wake the tablet later in a silent environment.
@gr8nole
Thanks for your work. The Kids enjoy your rom very much.
