Looking for a way to turn one of the hardware buttons into a PLAY/PAUSE button while the screen is off. Any ideas on how this can be done? I have a rooted X10a w/2.1

i have thought of this, when the screen is locked i the home button should be play/pause, the menu back and the backkey next song.
I bought Music PlayerPro - the Volume Up/Down keys skip next/previous, or hold for volume up/down. (You can reverse this behaviour in the app too).
This works when the screen is locked btw.
I would love pause too... but the volume down does a similar job.
Have a look here:

I think it was released the same day you asked, as well!

Question: change the track with the volume keys?

Can someone confirm if it's possible to change the track with the volume keys while the screen is turned off.
I can currently do this with my nexus 1 running cm7
Thanks

Nope. You can't. Volume keys are for volume up/down purpose only. But you can swipe the clock in the lock screen to get the music player widget, where you can change tracks.
Well it may be adjustable with CM when it comes out for the S, so I wouldn't give up hope. It's just not available in stock .
I don't get why OEMs make this a part of the stock firmware. Its a very useful feature especially when listening to spotify.

Like the old Sony Ericsson Walkman phone's.
Hold up for next and down for previous.
It would be very usefull.

wt19i advanced key layout changes

Hi there,
In my opinion Sony Ericsson did a huge step back regarding functionality in wt19i (I previously owned a K750i w/ W800i FW). I like to get that functionality back and therefore I want to change key functions, but I need help!
I want to:
Change song by holding volume up/down button for 1 second.
Play/Pause pedia player by holding WALKMAN button for one second.
Change song by holding volume up/down button on head set for 1 second.
I know how to change key layout (here and here), but those keys are fine. I need to find a way to preserve the default funcs but add a hold-key-func.
Can you help me?
The Holy Cow will bless you.

These features are definitely missing on the wt19i, had the w800 before.
So far, the only mod available here in xda is skipping tracks when screen is locked. Check this thread for more info.

I think this is just a limitation with Android. You have to put the lock screen on in order for the volume to not unlock it.
