Just wondering if there's a way to change songs using the headphones you get with the s3? Or if there's an app that let's you do it?
Thanks!

if you got original headphone, then you'll find that there's 3 button..
volume up, volume down, then the "other button"..
if you press the "other button" once, the music will paused or started..
Just make sure u pressed it twice to change the song..
Check out Jays Headset Control in the Play Store.
Its meant for single button configurations, but it works perfect to with my 2 (or 3) button configuration S3 supplied earphones
(edit) note that stock works too. but the app gives more options like prev track
Ahhhh thanks guys!
Exorcist I kind of feel stupid Haha so simple!! Was bugging me big time

I wasnt aware of that app, thanks
I couldn't get any of the marketplace apps to override the headset +/- buttons from acting as volume buttons, but have now worked out how to simply remap them to act as track controls, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28752382#post28752382

See my post two above yours for a fairly easy DIY fix, should work in any ROM I'd have thought.

Thanks for answer me but, is not working, I did everything you say in that post, but I can`t make them work I see the whole Generic.kl from my original stock rom that doesn`t have problems changing to the next track o pause etc., and it is the same Generic.kl, I don`t know what is happening, is a really weird issue.

I dont think that function is supported, but i might be wrong.

PlayerPro's lockscreen function lets you do that.
Other than that, almost all stereo bluetooth headsets have track change buttons. I'm using SonyEricsson MW600 myself.

many thanks for your reply! I'll get this player !!
Have a look at poweramp as well for lock screen functionality.
Could be done with some key mapping? Although:
1) I've only read about it, never done it.
2) You'll loose volume up/down functionality on those keys.
hi guys,
i love the samsung galaxy s2 phone, but i have a question.
Whilst using the phone, i end up accidently pressing the volume button and this can sometimes mean i put the "Notification" or "Ringer" volume really down.
I only want to be able to control such options by actually going into the Settings menu, so is there a way to disable this button or somehow change it's functionality?
BUMP!
Surely someone must have the answer?

I guess so nyssa, but many also still have their mobiles, watching this forum and are still replying to many questions on this forum.
Hey there. Have you even tried searching in the market? The very first app for "volume" query can do just that
Sent from outer space by aliens on tapatalk using SGS2
thanks aj rockwell. That app i believe only helps you adjust settings with volume. I actually want to Remap buttons, so that the volume button cannot adjust sounds other than "IN-CALL volume"
this is so annoying, I was going to open a thread with the some issue. Is any chanse,mod which can switch a default option when we press volume from ringer volume to media volume. many times by incident I turn ringer volume down and I dont hear a ringer.
@ x7 - Halleluyah! At last i find someone who has exactly the issue as myself.
Guys, all i want is some app that can disable the volume button from controlling the MEDIA's/NOTIFICATION's volume. The only way i want to control these is by actually going to SETTINGS>SOUND ...surely there must be an app that can REMAP the Volume key functions?
I agree, why Samsung did this think That you can change volume ringer by pressing a volumes button? This is so silly
Sent from Samsung Galaxy S 2 (80GB)
the only thing we can do x7 is hope that someone on here will know a fix for this volume issue.
I took a look in android market but I havent found anythink
I checked too, but could not find anything. The only one i have seen whilst searching on google, is Button Remapper. But there is no information to say that this app is safe for the SGS2.
Anyone? Help!
x7nofate mate, pls ignore the replies. I feel like such a twat now . It looks like AJ.Rockwell was right...i never properly tried the recommended app and was too quick to ignore it's features.
Download "Volume Control +" from android market and install it.
Once installed, set the volume for all the media/ring/notifications. Then simply goto the options where it allows you to lock each individual type of tone. So for example if you don't want to decrease your ringtone volume by accident, then select that.
Save your settings and you should have a little lock icon in your status bar.
Now when you put your volume for your ringtone down, it looks like its gone down again, right???? WRONG! Since Volume Control+ has locked it down, VC+ automatically forces it back to the "locked" settings. Genius!
Let me know how you get on mate!
PS: If you need any help or just wanna chat android, then PM me ur email and i'll add you to msn/yahoo/skype or whatever you use.
I installed a "Volume Control +" ages ago and I locked in settings but I can put my volume ringtone down anyway so I thought that it doesn't work but I was wrong. It works, thank you very much
Bump! I searched XDA on Google for this exact thread, my problem too. My question is, with that apps reccommendation (thanks for that), does it still bring up the volume OSD? That's my major annoyance, and something that happens to people whenever I pass my phone over to them.

Are their any other roms besides Ineffabilis v1.3 that have the ability to change the music track via a long press of the volume keys while the screen is off?
I use that feature ALL THE TIME in my system.
I don't know about all the different ROMs, but at least 2or3 I tried it with definitely DIDN'T work.
Wonder how they got it to work in ineffinbilis?

Try Plug in Music Widget. It doesn't have a long press to change, but a double click to change tracks. It didn't work well until the last release, but now seems to work quite a bit better. He built some options into the double press so it can work more than just for the developer. It also is the cleanest music widget, and works with Google music, stock music, and winamp. Has some other features like auto start when headphones plug in.

Thanks for the info, but I am looking for something to change the music track while I am running. I hate trying to fumble with the lock screen, especially in gloves (for the winter) when I could just press and hold the volume key.
I agree. The zero click ease of holding the volume up to skip to the next track is simply amazing.
You can always use the beats headphones...
Seriously thought I'm looking for another headset with better audio quality, I've grown to like the inline controls.

The widget has an option to change tracks with a double press of the volume keys, screen off or all the time, your choice. It's not quite as smooth or clean feeling as the long press, but it still works.

Lol, the best thing about the long click feature is you don't have to use those POS headphones........
I use that feature 100 times a day at work because I can do it in my pocket without looking at the phone and it works with ALL of my many different headphones.
Almost all 3rd party headphones that have the inline controls are setup to work with iPhones and don't work in android unless you use an app like headset button controller.
Using the long click feature in the ROM I'm using gets around all that and works awesome.
I know, I was just being sarcastic. I do believe these are supposed to work with Android - http://www.etymotic.com/ephp/mc2.html. I have ER-4P's now.
For whatever reason I can't get it to skip on CR 1.7, I figure it out though. I loved having that feature on my D1.

Oh don't get me wrong, I love the beats earphones, but I drive roughly 70% of my day, so having my phone inline to my stereo is why I love the volume button skip.

Cool, I use a Motorola T-605 in my car, just hit the skip button on the BT controller. I do need a new mic for it though, it's not working anymore for some reason. Nice hands free kit over all, got it for like $50.
ok, I have a new idea for making money. Just take the bluetooth controls off and use them in your pocket. We could be like the guy that made the pet rock and make a million dollars.
Everytime I use Poweramp and, for instance, start using the browser, eventually it turns off. I've tried playing with the settings but didn't have any luck. Is anyone having this problem or knows a solution for this?
Another niggle I'm having is related to the volume rocker being unable to change music in longpress.
Thanks in advance.
Settings, Audio Engine, Advanced Tweaks - Enable Keep Service and Audio Thread Priority too 2.
Never had that problem before with these settings..
As for volume rocker changing songs.. Volume Rocker only changes the volume afaik
My name is Optimus Prime and I send this message..
Thank you so much, the audio thread priority did the trick for me
As for the volume rocker, I used to be able to change track on my old HTC hero. Very useful when I was driving. Anyway, it's just a minor annoyance.

On the Sammy's they only change volume, though give it a couple of months and someone will have come up with a mod to enable long press to change track (just as they did on the S II).

Unfortunately, I'm also having problems again. Strangely enough, it seemed to work for a certain amount of days, guess I wasn't running that many apps aside from the browser and poweramp, so it didn't trigger this behavior.
Meanwhile I changed from stock rom to Omega 6.0, but it shouldn't it have anything to do with the problem, right?
Just got my new Z2, very nice phone.
But it is unable to properly work with my headset.
It's an Fischer, with one button. This button does not play or pause my music (as it's supposed to do on my previous androids).
On the Z2 it is only able to change the volume up.
With Keytest I'm able to see its being detected as volume up.
Is this possible to change this without using root?

Sorry to revive an old thread, but is this a regular "feature" of the z2?
I tried regular 3-button android phones (samsung s4 and a adidas one) and in both the volume buttons work fine, but the call - play/pause button works as volume up. I also tried a couple of iphone compatible phones: in those the volume keys don't work but the call - play/pause works fine.
Is this an issue/defect/problem with my phone or all z2 have this problem?
Root?
I also have the same problem. Assuming that my phone is rooted, how do I change it?
Thanks!

It is a stock feature of Z devices I guess, but with stock headset. I can't tell for sure as I'm using Apollo modded by myself that supports double press to skip track and triple press to previous song so I'm not sure

It might be related with the 4 tips connector used for the noise cancelling headphone. Sucks. But thanks for the link. It could be really helpful for someone with root.

Noise cancelling headphones have 5 tips connector. The one with buttons have 4 tips. almost any device supports 4 tips jack connectors.
