Hey All,
I jsut flashed the stock rooted NJ1 build, Everything seems fine EXCEPT the "Page Buddy" pages are all blank (no default apps) and the play and pause functionality on my headset has gone the way of the dodo.
I know there are 3rd part apps for the button functionality but I shouldn't need anything new on a stock ROM.
The button works fine for answering calls and the mic is fine so it isn't a hardware problem. I used a key test app and a "79" is reported when the button is pressed (regardless of which of my headsets i use) but i dont get any key press registered for volume up or down.
I can only assume the play/pause functionality and the blank page buddy screens are somehow related.
Would really like any guidance the community can provide.
Thanks

Hi Guys,
Does anyone have a solution for the problem that the call button on bluetooth headsets won't work anymore with the TP2?
I use it in combination with Voice Command which worked flawlessly with the Touch Diamond, it's also been set to the same (and only) hardware key as the diamond but it won't work on the headset!?
It works fine when you press and hold the call button on the phone though...?
thanks!

When you say it works fine, do you mean through the BT headset, or just through the speakerphone?
P.S. I had an opportunity to talk with someone at Microsoft, and the response I received was "it's a known problem" and "wait for the next update or next version".
Alas...
i've edited it..
Strange problem cause the diamond had the same windows mobile version?

It's nothing to do with the WinMo version, it's a different BT Stack.
I have been playing with it today and will post an update in the tweaks thread once I have it patched.

Its not the BT Connection with a headset in general. That function works fine. I've tested it with my bt headset. Pressing the button I can accept the call and/or redial.
The problem lies within Voice Command itself. Once installed it gets assigned to the one and only hardware button configurable (hold call button for 3 seconds). The problem with that is when I do that with my BT headsets (normal and motorcycle one). They get powered off by pressing them for 3 seconds (same button). xD
I disabled Voice Command though due to the ringtone volume bug. Every 2 seconds the ringtone gets low for an announcement that you don't hear. Still waiting for a proper fix without all the work of replacing files.
I was looking for the original voice dialing function. But it really isn't there on the TP2. Voice Command is much better though. But damn that bug.

Sorry to disappoint you chrix, but the same hardware button (also hold) is used with the Touch Diamond.
Like I said they both look the same but with the TP2 it doesn't work, i'll be looking out for your patch beasty!
Another suffering TP2 user!
Hi guys,
I am also suffering with this issue as well. I did try and see if an old registry hack worked (changing HKLM\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand path=\Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCmd.exe) but it didn't unfortunately. As previously pointed out in this forum, I think that this issue is more down to the fact that HTC seemed to have replaced the Bluetooth stack with their own proprietary version which isn't bad by all accounts, but does seem to lack this functionality. I might try and contact them to see if there's an update to resolve this but if someone does manage to create a patch for it, I'm sure there's a number of us who would be interested!
Cheers,
Barry
I installed voice command as well.
I'd already used the send button to put my lock on so it gave me another button (see attached).
Any body Know where the button is.
Hi all,
Does anyone know a way to assign the buttons below the screen to a function, while the screen is off? The volume button is also useable, even when the screen is turned off. I would like to assign previous track and next track to some buttons, so I don't have to turn anything on to skip a track.
I know I can use the music control which is in the headset that is shipped with the phone, but I like to find out the options here.
Thanks for your input.
Hi all,
I think it is a good idea!
On my old Sony-E. you could change titles by keeping vol.-up pressed for 2 sec.
I haven't read about something similar on Android yet.
I am sorry if I missed this topic.
Thx!
Re:
Keeping the volume button up/down pressed changes tracks too in the custom roms that I've tried (OpenDesire, Cyanogenmod). Not sure if it's a froyo feature or a custom implementation though since I've never had the original froyo on my phone.
[EDIT]
Looks like a custom addition. Just saw the line "Common: Long press volume buttons to skip songs - Jon Boekenoogen" in the cyanogenmod changelog.
I have a pair of handsfree headphones from my old galaxy s2 and I am wondering if there is any way I can make the button work for answering calls or skip tracks. The microphone works on calls, but I need to answer manually. Any help is good. Thanks!
Try this app, it's trial but there's a full version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kober.headset

and please report back if you found a solution (probably include the information in the first post for people looking for the same)
No extra apk needed for me
I have tested with a headphone from my LG gw620 and works fine (I am on stock unrooted jellybean Moto G).
I can answer calls by pressing button on earphone's mic. During a call if I press it silences my mic and if i press it reactivates mic. (I can't end call, so)
In stand by mode a short press triggers my last multimedia apk used (radio, music, etc..) and while playing them if i press button I get pause.
Long press always ends in same end: google Voice search.
Greetings
I installed the paid apk but it does not work.
Had you any joy with this? Having same issue.
Is this normal behaviour? And if it is, can I fix that and be able to pause media when the screen is locked? Preferably without a new kernel.
edit: just pinpointed it, if I turn on "Power Button Instantly Locks", I can play/pause or change volume when screen locked, but if that is off, I cannot. This seems to have just started to happen with update to latest MHC19J
Works for my phone. (using poweramp)
Maybe the phone hates your headphones? Don't really know....
Headset controls and volume rocker not responding
I agree that lately, the headset controls stopped working when the screen is and/or the device is locked. Also in this situation the volume-rocker is not working either.
It's very frustrating.
Your workaround to activate "device locks instantly" is working for me and now my headsets' controls and volume-rocker are working with the screen off.
I can't be sure, but the problem seemed to start after the "March 2016 Security Update." I installed it on Saturday or Sunday, and when I started using my headset again on Monday, I noticed the problem.
Hello,
I have just bought a V8 headset on gearbest, but I can't force that device to work properly together with my Cubot Z100 (Android 5.1) .
Some features works well (music launching, songs changing, volume adjusting, calls answering) excepts, that there is no mobile reaction on a single headset' button press. Normally the voice control window should pop up on the mobile & allow me to run some features using just a voice (like make a call phones by just saying who it should call for). Although a double button press seems to work fine, and let call back the last call I made.
I don't know if it is compatibility problem or this is Android problem or maybe anything else (anything installed missing).
On my old Samsung Galaxy S-Plus (Custom ROM) everything works well. After single button press the mobile reacts immediately and If "cyber voice" is installed this application takes control of my mobile and let me control that using just a voice. If it is not installed standard voice dialer pops up and let more or less do the same things as "Cyber Voice".
I was searching in "all installed application" but couldn't find any Voice dialer in my Cubot . I know that some time ago it was replaced by "Google now" so maybe that is the reason. So I have installed the voilce dialer myself from the Google market, but it didn't help.
Do anynone have any idea how to force my both devices to work together???
BR,
Tomasz
