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.

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
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11455-rom-android-open-kang-project-maguro-build-19-jan-17/
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...

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 found an app,Plug In Music Widget, which able to do the volume up to skip music, but the bad is, it is very hard to just skip 1 songs, it would skips more then 1 track..........
It works with the android music player.
additional
ok, i just install Headset button controller after the plug in music widget and Now
it does skip 1 music track, but still have some drawback, here's the setting.
Plug In Music Widget:
double click timing 0.3sec
track change using volume key: when screen off
plug out function: none
no auto start
Headset button controller:
target music app: pick you apps, i am using MymusicOn
under
right button action: single click: next track (our volume up is right button action)
the rest of the button, set to disable.
plug in action: disable
plug out action:disable
This will skip 1 songs if you double tap volume up.
The bad: I won't play songs automatically if you plug the headphone. I need to plug the headphone when the screen is off, the it would play and the other bad is
if you plug the headphone at the very beginning when screen is off, it would skip 1 song and play, basically resume last song won't work.
and don't know how to go back previous song yet.
Headset button controller does the same bit is more easily used, and more customizable, I recommend you give it a shot

So this allows you to skip songs with the volume buttons on the phone while screen is off? With stock Samsung player? Sorry I ask so many questions I can't really try it because I'm on the remastered beast mod which has this feature but I'd like to move back to a different rom that doesn't have this feature so this seems perfect.

This is the best I've personally found so far, you might like it: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.purelogicapps.android.tactileplayerfree
One really annoying thing though is you have to double tap volume instead of long press. Seems like most of them are like that. I wish they'd at least make long press an option, grr.
Hi All
Does anyone else here use the desktop dock to listen to music? I do at work with a headphone amp - it works great.
There are a couple of annoying points though. Firstly if you lift the phone out of the dock whilst music is playing it doesn't pause the music it just plays it out loud from the phone speaker - not good in a quiet office.
Similarly if a call comes in when you have finished the call the music that was playing before you took the call starts playing when you hang up. What's even more annoying is that the play music app is not listed in the notification field to easily pause it, you need to re-launch it then get the now playign screen up and then pause it - all whilst your music is played out lous for the whole office to hear.
VERY ANNOYING
Any way round this? I hope they fix these bugs soon.
Use a better music player app?
Player Pro, N7Player, Winamp, etc... Any player that has lots of docking and bluetooth options. Just check the ones you want.
Example: i only have one play/pause button on my headphones, so i binded it that way:
1 click: Play/Pause
2 click: Next Song
3 click: Previous Song

This is using the Google Music app so I can play my music from the cloud. I've not tried it with Spotify (the only other app I use for music) but I am pretty sure it'll do the same thing. I'll try it next time I'm in the office though.
Loving my Galaxy Note 2, but I do have a few minor niggles regarding the stock Music Player that I'm hoping someone may be able to help with. I'm on stock firmware btw.
#1 Headphone play button often does not respond if left in pause mode for over a few minutes.
Allow me to explain - I'm at my desk at work listening to music with the stock music program. I get a phone call on my work phone so I click the headset button to pause the music. I finish my call and press the headset button to resume music. No response. Sometimes if I click once, twice or three times more it will start playing again. It's like the phone enters a sleep mode that won't respond straight away.
#2 Music EQ gets lost when something else happens on the phone.
For example, if I unplug my headphones to go for a walk to another part of the office. I return moments later, plug my headphones back in but the EQ is all messed up. Almost sounds like you’re in a tunnel. If I click the EQ button it immediately reverts to the correct EQ setting. This can also be simulated on demand by having music playing, swipe your hand over the screen to take a screenshot (music fades out, there is a camera click sound), then when the music fades back in it has gone into that tunnel EQ sound. Again, clicking the EQ button sorts the issue out.
I have considered moving to a different music program instead. I've tried Google Music (which has it's own bugs like album art disappearing), Winamp etc but for some reason the stock player's EQ settings (custom extended with Bass on 2, and Clarity on 1) make my Sony headphones respond far better than the EQ's in the other programs. And you can put a spot of reverb on the music as well which sounds ace.
No one else has these problems? Does no one use the Note 2 for music listening?

I have had some issues with my Note 2 also. Coming from Htc One XL with beats audio which some people don't like, however I did. Whenever I plug my headphones in the sound quality is just not as good but compared to HTC output sound is so much better.
Ive tried Original settings with phone plus added beats mods, but neither are producing same I quality I had with HTC phone, which is a pain as I do listen to music regularly on my phone. Not sure if makes big difference but thought I'd better mention I'm using in ear phones not headphones.
similar issue here.. sometimes the headset next/pause button works.. sometimes it doenst.. looks like once the phone sleeps it doesnt want to respond .. but response if i wake up ,, which is just stupid.
