hi,
before i rooted the play, next track, and previous track worked fine.
now when i press play, it doesnt always respond, and when it does, it either goes to the next track or pauses/plays.
pressing previous track also results in moving to the next track.
so,
FF = next track
Play = next track or play/pause
RW = next track
i did the usual rooting, and i am using the stock ROM
any help? do you know why this is happening?
Hi, i've searching for this for a while, but to no avail.
I love my new Galaxy S2, but there is one issue that bothers me, and that is that I have to take it out of my pocket to skip tracks.
I heard from one person stating you could skip the track by long pressing the button on the supplied head phones, however I cannot get this to work. Does this work for any body else?
If the headphones can't skip track, does anyone know of any that do (volume control is not important)? Or an app/trick to skip track without needing to take the phone out of my pocket? (such as long press volume rocker)
I have an old bluetooth stereo headset, and even this won't allow track skipping, only play/pause, despite working fine with my nexus one. All help would be greatly appreciated.
You skip tracks by double pressing the mic button. It's a pain to get the timing right, but it does work with the stock music player.
You can download PowerAMP Music Player from the android market.
It's a better music player and you can longpress the button to change the track
Trail version is 15 days, you gotta buy the full app after that

So If my headphones can't even play/pause the stock music app , I might have an some other underlying issue?
Strangely I play/pause with the headset if I install Fedes music app alpha v4, and possibly others. Will try uninstalling all music apps again and see if they were interferring somehow.
Confused!
To follow up, the double click to skip works in Fedes Music app (you're right about the timing) but still won't work in either the stock music app or the music hub.
Really fustrating.
The double clicking works on stock but you have to get the timing right, which is near impossible. The whole Samsung s2 stock music app is a load of crap compared to the original S, the sound, the music contol, the whole thing is much worse! I don't know what they have done, but they have definitely gone backwards with the music app!
You can use a remote from an HTC headphone for skipping tracks.

Sorry if I wasn't clear, but the button does not work at all when using the stock app. No play/pause, no track skip, nothing.
All other music apps seem to work as intended. So surely this must be an issue with my stock music app? As if there is a hidden setting I turned off, but can't find to turn back on.

About 2.5 years too late but I think I've nailed it. I can get a consistently successful double click skip by holding the first click a little longer. Using a pair of cheap Sony earphones on the S2.
Hello,I figure someone here knew
Is there an app that will work on ics, that will allow going to next song using our holding down volume button?
I don't mind paying, but not sure if power amp gas this feature working
Thanks

Build 19 of AOKP Rom can do this

A guick Google search found PlayerPro which seems to do it, but I don't know anything about the player...
PowerAmp has had good reviews, and I think it might do it as well.
If you're using custom ROM, it is already included in Bigxies v.9. (GSM) (CDMA)
Otherwise I guess it is in CM as well...

if using headphones.....
Did you know the supplied headphones will skip to the next track if you do a quick double clip on the headphone cable pause button
Haved you tried cubed?

I used to use it on my old phone and it supported skipping songs by holding volume.

Those supplied headphones with the phone aren't necessarily "top quality."
To follow up, found nothing with power amp
Used player pro trial, and it has shake to skip song which works great if anyone is interested
So no need to wake up screen every song change, with screen closed, share it and it skips song.
Comes in handy at work where I don't have skip buttons on headphones

I hope someone can help with this one!
I had this issue with stock ROMs too, so it's not the ROM, but right now I'm on Maximus v6.
Basically I have a pair of JVC headphones with an inline remote button. This button 'works' - I hit it once, pauses my music. I hit it once again, plays my music. Great.
Problems begin with I double click though. Double clicking calls the last person I've called - which is very annoying when I accidentally hit it twice at 7:30 in the morning, resulting in a very angry best friend X-D Does anyone have any suggestions on how to disable the 'calling' portion of the clicks? Preferably the phone would realise I'm not in a call, and only control music - but when I'm in a call control that. If not possibly, entirely disabling any phone interaction and only allowing music player interaction would be great
I am using my iPhone headphones with my oneplus 5T and when I try to skip to the next song on spotify by double tapping the play/pause button on the volume rocker in the cord of the headphones like I have on my iphone and other android devices, it just skips to the next song but does not start playing as says the next song is paused.
Now I have tried the apps from the android app store that add these gestures but same result as above.
Is this due to me using an iPhone headphone on an android device? Something to do with a setting in spotify? I've also read that this is not a feature for oxygenOS? I've also noticed that using the volume up/down does not adjust the volume as well. I know oxygen OS offers gestures to change to the next song but I do not want to do that if my phone is in my pocket.
This is very frustrating when I have my phone in my pocket at the gym and need to skip to the next song. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
