Sometime ago, I had a Samsung HS3000 headset and I could stop/start/pause/rewind/forward the standard music player.
I then lost it (no idea how) and about a month later, I purchased another one. This one will not do some actions. I can play music through the headset and I can press the talk button to call the last number I called before and the volume controls work. But not the play/pause/rewind/fast forward etc.
I have tried rebooting the phone. It's running the standard Android 4.3 and I have NOT rooted the phone.
I also have a Sony SBH50 headset and that has the same issues.
Anyone got any ideas?
regards
Alan

It's the encryption. I had to encrypt the device to allow my corporate email through. That has broken the BT music controls.
How do I fix that?

hey so i got the atrix and i paired it with my shure music adapter (its a mic with a button on it). i have been using poweramp but when i try to use the button during playback all i got was the option to complete that action using voice command or vlingo. I figured that maybe those were taking priority of the button or something so i stopped those applications but then when i pressed it nothing happens. a long press of the button also dials the last person called. I tried downloading winamp to see if it would work with that, and it does.. however it just does play/pause there doesn't seem to be an option for next track/last track. i know the mic/button works with my friends droid x.
So basically my question is....has anyone found a way to enable next track/last track using the atrix and any combination of apps?
That only works on apple branded products.

if you read my post completely you will see that i have tested this exact product with my friends droid x and i can confirm that it does work for play/pause AND next track/ prev track.
anyone else have any other ideas?
My apple branded wired headset paused and controlled volume with my Captivate just fine, too, but is not functioning on my Atrix. Hope there's a fix, it's nice to hit pause on the wire rather than grab the phone, unlock, open the music app, hit pause.

Funny I lost controls on my MOTOROLA S9 headset on the MOTOROLA Atrix. LOL go figure
Same issue with BOSE MIE2i headset - mic works, buttons do not. I hope for fix
for anyone else experiencing this issue here with poweramp i have just recently spoken with the developer:
Unfortunately, WinAmp uses old Android 2.1 API, which is used in PowerAMP only on Android 2.1.
For Android 2.2+ PowerAMP uses new headset API.
I think I will get Atrix in 7-10 days and there will be a patch immediately on market.
The sd card issue already has been resolved in current dev builds.
Thanks!

Hi,
Does anyone know how to enable the change track buttons?! I´m using a Jabra BT3030 and it´s working fine to adjust volume in spotify but i cannot change track...
I'm using Sennheiser bluetooth headphones and didn't change any setting to be able to change track, worked out of the box, but with the default player. I know that doesn't help you a lot; does your Jabra work ok with other devices; possibly it's a Spotify problem?

Yes, i was anle to do it on iPhone and android without any problems. But i found the issue now. I´m able to change track in the built in music app but not in Spotify...so it´s a spotify issue.
As for cabled headphones, what about pressing play button twice or three times? (twice makes it next track, three times makes it previous one). If this works it might be that WP doesn't recognize the other buttons on your headset. I'm just improvising, as a matter of fact I don't know anything about this stuff.

Actually that works with cabled...will test this later with my Jabra headset...but it´s kinda anoying that i cannot use the forward and back button on the headset when using spotify. It works in the built in app so i´m sure Spotify will sort it out in future updates.
Question for you guys .... I use Google Music but have noticed on my RAZR that often the bluetooth music control (like from my car stereo) only work when Google Music is in the foreground on my phone. It seems to be OK if it was in the foreground and I switch back to Navigation -- I can still control it. But if I start playback from my launcher using iSyncr widget things often get all screwed up and I can only get things right by going directly into Google Music... otherwise the controls on my car do nothing.
Anyone else notice this?
(Same thing happens when I stream A2DP to my laptop ...)
Another issue is I can't use the button on iPhone headphones with my RAZR. I had no issues with my Droid X but it won't answer/end calls nor control music playback. Is this normal as well?
could it be the widget?

Anything is possible -- although I've been using iSyncr since I first got Android and have never had similar issues.
I've been listening to music all day at work via Bluetooth and it's been working -- and that's without having the player in the foreground. So I don't know ... I wonder if it's the stock Motorola player stealing focus? I have never used it but it always seems to be running.
Also any idea on why the headset button doesn't work at all? Not even for call handling.

unless you are using the settings on the stock music player equalizer, I don't see a reason to not use task manager to end it, that may be what's causing a conflict. and I am unfamiliar with your headphones, I rarely use them. but when it do I have some nice sennheiser earbuds my wife got me. normally I use a jawbone jambox (bluetooth) at home and a wired (dynex) logitech speaker at work.

Hi there,
Has any else had the problem with last number or missed call being dialed when you use the control button with the one x+
Only when listening to music with headphones
Still change even with The update..
Yes, wanted to ask the same
Using PowerAmp: one click start/stops, double click dials last call, long click open Google Now... Could not figure out how to change track until now :crying:

I'm using power amp pro but still no change, if I click next track on headphones I dial the last number in my call history,
I'm using Tiny call confirm App, this blocks the call and won't dial the number until you press yes on phone.
When I asked HTC they said it was a faulty phone but this is my second phone and still same problem,
Try using your headphones after you have received or missed a call and let' me know if your having the same problem.

So it seems the phone does not recognize a stereo headset is connected to it? It thinks it is a bluetooth device instead so when listening to music and you double tap your headset it places a call just as it would on a bluetooth device when connected? Sounds like a dumb phone, lol! Hope this isn't the case, i use jaybird bluetooth headset 5 days a week in the gym listening to music from my phone and always change tracks with double tap, answer calls, etc. Would i be effected by this when listening to music?
Never heard of this problem in a cell phone before?

Nope, it displays the headset icon, so it's correct... I have a Monster Mobile Jamz Headset with only 1 control button with this problem.
My BT headset Sony MW1 works correct, but it has single buttons for every control like forward/rewind/play/pause/volume....

Oh ok so for a device like mine it should work ok? Guess i'll find out soon enough, picking up the device tomorrow morning from ATT. What is Power Amp? Is this a 3rd party download to listen to music? What does this feature for you guys over the stock music player? Thanks

Ya I'm having the problem too I tried two of my friends hox and it worked fine on one and the other called out my fix for this as I use Google voice is have me ask each time I make a call to confirm and has worked fine like that I can't figure out what setting is on though to make one work fine and the other not
Damn this sucks. So i guess in the gym i have to pull this lunk out of my pocket whenever i want to change a track VS. the shortcut keys on my headset for which they were built for. Thanks HTC, you're always the best!!!
Do your wired headset volume rocker adjust the volume on the phone? I'm using a good pair of Bose wired headsets to listen to music and watch videos on my device and it has the controller on the headset for volume and change tracks/answer calls/ etc. When watching a Netflix video though in the Netflix App the Volume Rocker on my Bose headset does nothing, i have to manually press the volume rocker on the actual device, Wow another Fail HTC and these headphones are fully compatible with Android and Apple devices.
I hope once we can get our phones Rooted a developer can make a tool/tweak to make our headsets work they work on every other device under the sun the way they should and stupid HTC prevents for whatever reason. Really a waste to have zero control with a headset for this device.
hi whenever im listening to spotify i can stop and play with no problems with my headphone button. the skip next track by double clicking works as well but its calling my last called number at the same time. does anybody here know how to disable the call feature on it? i tried it on a couple of friends one x's one worked fine the other called at the same time as well.
anybody?

Hi
This seems to happen to all music tracks I have been waiting for answer for 2 weeks now, I use a app called tiny call control, it just stops the last number dialing problem

Wish we can find a fix for this. Also seems the volume buttons on a stereo headset do nothing!!! So as of right now if you want to change tracks or adjust volume while using and Bluetooth or wired stereo headset which has all the buttons on it, you have to pull this device out of your pocket and do it all manually on the device. Which makes my $150 headset useless as of right now. Anyone finding or developing a fix for this?

Not really true: My Sony MW1 BT headset works perfect... I would say the same about all headsets with dedicated buttons. Tried the urBeats for HTC at a store, works without any problems. But you don't have volume control on this one...
Im using the beats Tours and the volume doenst work neither does play/pause, or skip, and i cant use the play/pause/skip button to answer and end calls like i could on my iphone. you would think a phone branded with beats would fully work with beats headphones... update soon hopefully? for this and for sense 4.1 and android 4.2, i cant see why HTC wouldnt want to keep their flagship up to date with the most recent android as long as possible... tho the original HOX is just now getting the 4.1 update while 4.2 is already out for nexus devices

Bro, 4.2 has been out for what, 48hrs? Lol, hold your horses for our update and from the few using it they say its buggy and not as stable or good as JB 4.1. No rush here for a buggy OS.
I think it might be a Sense problem with the headset controls. Weird the other poster said it worked for him and his headset, must have a magical headset? I have these earbuds, http://www.bose.com/controller?url=..._ear_headphones/index.jsp&model=mie2i_headset and only control that works is to pause and play the track, that's it. They have this version of the same earbuds, http://www.bose.com/controller?url=...n_ear_headphones/index.jsp&model=mie2_headset specifically for Android devices so maybe this is why it doesn't fully work for me? Still doesn't seem very likely. Going to get the new Jaybird's for Xmass and they are fully compatible with Android so will find out then if the problem still arises, http://www.bestbuy.com/site/JayBird...p?id=1218813784721&skuId=6917118#tab=overview
