Hi everyone!
I was wondering whether there was any way to get the option to use the volume buttons on the x8 to skip songs while the phone is screen is locked/off? I know about the lockscreen touch controls that are built in but it's a lot better with volume buttons.
Is it only a CM7 feature? Is there perhaps an app that can do it? I'm using froyobread v21...
Any help much appreciated! Thanks

try to press and hold volume button while the screen is off..
It's a feature included in FroyoBread since "I don't remember when", hold the volume button for maybe 1' when lockscreen is on... I've just done it : it works.

Application called "Button Remapper" works well on CyanogenMod on Xperia X8!
For example: use it to remap volume buttons and use them as "Call" and "End Call" button.
Now i can simply click once "volume up" button to launch call register and tap this button again to redial. I can also end call with button without using touchscreen. I think that provides better user experience.
[There are many apps to control volume in the AndroidMarket]
You can find this app here:

Is it possible to change the way the home button acts? I dislike the way when you hit the home button it puts the current app into a background process. Could we change it so like an iPhone the home button fully closes an app when pressed?

Excuse me, but I believe the iPhone puts the process to background too.
Right now im using the cynogenmod 7 KANG's version, when you go to the USB settings there is a option to fully close an app by holding the back button. You can also customize the home/menu button using that rom.

Hi everyone
can anyone please help me find a way to use the camera button of my sony xperia s as a multitasking key
i have upgraded to ICS but i still have to long press the home key to launch recent app list which is very annoying.
Thanks.
Its like gingerbread, long press to show recent apps, as far I know it can't be done yet

Im not experienced in this field but my logic tells me that its only use is for the camera since its a hardwarebutton.
Good idea though.
In case you want the soft buttons that ICS provides there is a thread called on screen buttons mod in the dev section.

Don't you think changing the function of camera key would be a bit weird? Everytime you have to switch between apps, you'll have to reach the cam key. Waste of time, if you ask me. And I don't think it has been done.
You'd better enable the default on screen buttons of ICS.
Just follow this link:

Hi all.
I have noticed with my note that the volume button... mostly the down... are so simple to hit without knowing. Is there an app or some setting that allows me to lock volume up, or make it less responsive?
Thanx.
Zeddock.
Ps. Sorry if in wrong forum

I've seen some physical designs, HTC makes some.
I recommend this, but in newer Jellybean roms Google captures long clicks.

A lot of custom roms have this feature, like wanam, omega, miui etc. Choose one!

Install JAYS Headset Control from the play store and you will be able to skip tracks and many more right from the stock headsets

+1 with the ones that are come with the phone, while playing music you press the one with no + or - on it 1 time to pause and 2 times to go to the next track
Should work with any kind of music player as far as i know.
