Long press volume to skip tracks? - Motorola Photon 4G

Is there a way to get this on the stock Photon rom? I've tried Poweramp, that's a no go, it doesn't turn the volume up when you long press, but it doesn't skip either. Player Pro's take on it works kinda clunky too. This is my most missed feature from cm7. Any input would be appreciated!

These types of CM7 "hotkeys" generally don't exist on stock. You might check to see if some ROM authors would be willing to add to their ROMs.

The problem with that is there are not many roms available for the Photon. I just need to know how and what to modify. Also, the music players that allow this feature, Poweramp and Mixzing, that worked on my Evo do not work on the Photon.

Since I can't really get a good answer for this I turned to "Just Shake" on the market. It gives the ability to skip by double tapping the volume up or down keys. I haven't even played with any of the shake settings yet, but it works well.

I use tactile player. Its double tap just like the one you described

Can You tell me wich files I need mod in stock to add this "hotkeys" ?
(already have add check "net.hostname" for stock, so I understand programming part, but cannot find needed files).

Im in the same boat. I've been told that its the rom that needs to be modified, but nobody says what part or HOW to modify it. I gave up on the idea.

This is way beyond my level of experience. I can edit the build.prop, that's about it! I can follow a step by step procedure, but this is like brain surgery being performed by a bicycle mechanic!

Chances are good you are missing your keystr file. The fix has been discussed dozens of times. Please search for this. I should note you will need to be rooted to fix this. If you don't want to root, you will have to go back to gingerbread.

Are you talking about this, or this? (they actually appear to be the same thing)
It's mentioned in both threads that the "DSP Manager" app doesn't work with the stock music app. Are you trying to use it with the stock music app?

Then I surely don't know. Try posting your question in one of those two threads I linked. One of the threads DOES have a post that says you need to start DSP Manager before you start Poweramp. But I don't have either, so I'm not really qualified to answer questions on either.

Where is the notification sound for NFC confirmation?

I don't like the stock notification sounds that is played when using NFC tags or wallet. I am currently using NFC task launcher with my tags. I can change the confirmation sound in the app but it still plays the stock sound before playing the one selected. Does anyone know how where the stock notification sound is located so I can change it. I have root explorer and I have search for it but I can't find it. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, many of the Android sounds are stored inside of.apk files which take a bit of tact to open, remove/change the sound file, repackage/sign.
Sometimes sound files are stored in the file system where you can access them directly with programs such as root explorer, but many system sounds are compiled into apk files such as the framework-res.apk file. Most apk files you can open in 7zip or any zip type of program, but modifying them can be a bit tricker. Themers and ROM devs usually have the tools handy to complete this task.
If you feel adventurous, there are plenty of guides around on how to modify system .apk files.
Hope that helps gives some general idea of where/how to look!
is this the sound you are referring to?(open zip to hear)

Its the end sound. I just checked. I never thought to look in the nfc apk, brain fart. One question though if I replace the end sound with something I want and mess it up some how do I stand a chance in bricking the element or does it have nothing to do with the secured part

Smart Actions type app for S3?

Ok guys, let me start off by saying I am a noob to the S3! I've had it for 2 days now and love most of what I've seen! I am coming from a Motorola Bionic running ICS leak for a while and was pretty spoiled to one little thing! Smart Actions! I really didn't even use it to its full capabilitys! I really miss the most the volume controls! Ringer/notifacation alert volume controls, that is set to a specific timeframe! Like when I'm at work turned down to minimum level and vibrate on. Anyone know of a good EASY TO USE app like that? I've downloaded Llama, just cant quite get it to work right!
Thanks for any help!

Tasker is the king of all Apps. The UI could possibly get a bit overwhelming for not-so technical users. Automate It Pro is a similar app with a much better UI (although it has admittedly lesser number of features than tasker).
I actully found an app that looks like it will work for me! Cronos! It has a Lite and paid verson, I'm using the lite verson now. It's very simple to setup! Closest to "Smart Actions" I have found!
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Ok, thought Chronos was going to suit me. But no, has not seemed to work yet. And yes, Tasker is a bit over my head! Think I'll give that Automate It a try.

[MOD] ACiD Audio Engine

Hi guys I wanted to share what I found to be working on my Sprint Optimus G.
I've been using this audio engine and the results have been pretty great.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002367
Use the universal installation in aroma and remember if you install walkman don't install any add-ons.
I personally skip the walkman installation and use the noozy add-on.
Please do a nandroid backup before trying and do not install on top of nocturnal's music mod until someone verifies it does not cause any issues.
Remember not to use music player equalizer as the installed app changes sound system wide.
Also don't forget on first boot let device settle and then reboot.
BTW this has worked on my epic 4g, gs3, touchpad, asus transformer and evo 3d with just about the same results: amazing control over sound with great clarity and bass.
I haven't tested on a att version so don't know if it works with no issues as on my sprint version but, wanted to put it out there for your guys as well since I've also been reading these threads from the beginning.
Thanks for viewing.
Backing up right now then I'm going to flash the Universal and then the Noozxoide addon just like you recommended! Will post back and let you know how things go Thanks for the link man.
Why make a separate thread...?
I find Noozoxide to be the best of the sound mods the recent updates only made it better

Alright so I backed up and flashed, they work and sound absolutely fantastic. Thanks a lot for the post once again.

Nothing beats Voodoo on the Nexus S or Galaxy S because the Galaxy S and Nexus S use a very good audio chip.
so, I've noticed that when using teh Nooz player, if i lock my screen, the music will play to the end of the track, but won't move forward to the next track unless I power on my phone. . . anyone else notice this?
Didn't work on mine
Did the ACID installation along with the Walkman (like they suggested). Followed all the instructions. It gave me the ACID app, the Albums app, the Dolby Mobile app, and the Walkman app. However...
-I didn't get any service for some reason. Just a red X by my bars while I was using it.
-I get force closes every time I go into the Walkman app to mess with the sound enhancements. Literally doesn't let me do anything.
-My music doesn't play...AT ALL. On ANY music player
I followed the directions for version 6.1 perfectly too. Sucks because I just went to Slick Rom and got rid of Nocturnal (and their Sony enhancement app) so I wanted to bring some good sound quality back to the Slick Rom. Oh well...
