I have an Android Ice Cream Sandwich 7 Inch Rooted Tablet PC. I am trying to control the music controls with a single button headset, such as Play/Pause and Rewind/Forward. I have tried the following Apps:
1) Headset Droid
2) Headset Controller
3) Headset Button Controller
However in all these apps, after configuring, when I press the headphone key, a dialog appears reading as follows,
Complete action using
Dialer+
Phone
Viber

Click to collapse
Now, how can prevent the android system from intercepting the Headset button?

Hi Everyone,
On my Samsung Epic, I was able to access the directory of system/usr/keylayout/sec_jack.kl where "headsethook" was listed. This enabled me to use the little button on the wire connecting my Bose Headphones to the Epic along with an App called "Headset Button Control" to play/pause music.
When I searched the same directory of "keylayout" on the Nook Tablet, I didn't find sec_jack.kl, and as I suspected, the same button had no effect on the nook (checked via debug option in Headset Button Control)
I was wondering if there is any way to make the NT recognize the headphone button, or if this is a pure hardware issue?
Thank you so much for your attention!
(as for the reason, I would like to press the button to flip pages on my ebook reader and manga reader. I have tried this on my phone using Tasker, and it works 100%)
Here's a screenshot of the headphone button: 4electronicwarehouse.com/content/bose/mobile-on-ear-headset-ser2.jpg
I'm using stock/ original in-ear headset with mic and volume control..
How can I start/active sVoice from it?
Thanks

I don't have a SGS3 yet, but I am wondering about these little details as well as they will determine the usefulness of SVoice...
If the phone is locked (in my pocket) and connected to a headset with a one button mic, can the button be used to activate SVoice? If so, is it a double tap of the button?
Obviously SVoice may choose to prevent you from doing certain things while locked (dialing numbers, etc), but it would be great to play a playlist or toggle shuffle for the music app using SVoice while the phone is in my pocket.
Likewise, if the phone is in a car dock, but the screen turns off/locks, can I still double tap the home button and voice a command for music control or reading my text messages?
Bump?

it was annoying me having come from iPhone to note 2 so the way that I have made it work was to get the app headset button controller from the play store and set 4 clicks to launch so voice, make sure you select yes to waking the phone when asked. Now s voice works on the headset, just wish I could assign it to long press of the headset button but that's reserved for google voice search. I hope this can help some people or if anyone has a simpler workaround please share!
Hi,
i connected a bt headset to my S3, i has one button. When i press the button the phone makes a redial of the last no. on the list. How do i change the action of the button so that it starts s-voice for example.
thanks a lot

I know there have been related topics of the volume rocker buttons only controlling media volume, but my question is spawned by something else that I was able to do a few days ago.
So I used to have a HTC amaze, the volume rockers controls the ringer/notifications. I liked that. I tend to change my notification/ringers often throughout the work day. But now I'm noticing on my SIII that the buttons only control media, which I understand is practical seeing as how ringers/notifications are thought of as a set it and forget it.
But the other day I was at the movies and was able to hit my volume rocker and it controlled my ringer volume and went all the way down to vibrate. And I did this from the home screen. I do it now, and it controls media. I know that you can hole the power button and you have quick access to vibrate, silence and sound and then when hitting the volume rockers you can adjust the sliders to control system, ringer and notification.
Any ideas on why I was able to control my ringer/notification volume via the rockers but now I cannot?
The volume settings are environment sensitive: if you're in a media app (includes all apps except dialler, ...) you get the media settings.
Homescreen should give you dialler. If not: are you using another launcher than stock?
You can set the other settings through the gear symbol in the on-screen volume display which pops up when pressing the volume rockers

Everything is stock on my phone. I've tried it within multiple different apps, and they all just allow for control of media volume, even the dialer.
Hi,
can anyone tell me how to fast forward when using the headphones when i double tap all it does is call the last dialled number.
I have installed headset button control trial and double tap works but not all the time.
Having same issue, guess that's just how sense is. I don't like.

I just got my phone yesterday, coming from Galaxy S3, and am having the same issue.
If no music program is running and I press the button on the remote, it starts the music program (google music) and plays a song.
If I press the button while music is playing, it pauses/resumes the song.
If i double press the button while music is playing, it stops the song and dials the last number.
If I i plug my 3 button Galaxy S3 headphones with 3 button remote into the HTC one, all 3 buttons (Previous, Next, Middle button) work.
How do I get the stock headphones to be able to skip to the next track?
I was having the same kind of issue, when double pressing the button to skip to the next track it will dial the last number called (when you end the call it does skip the track)
After researching I found this: which then made me believe the One has the same issue

I've been using the app "Headset Button Controller" and it's been working fine since
