Anyone know of a way to set a dedicated hardware mute button? I know SPB pocket plus has a mute action, and you can assign that to a hardware button, but is there any other way without installing SPB pocket plus. I basically want to set that voice command (hold) button to mute, as I toggle between mute and unmute alot, and having a button would be easier than sliding the slider up and down.
Thanks in advance.
Why not just pressing and holding the volume slider down to switch to mute?
press and hold the comm button
Would that work with the input from a BT headset as well? For some reason my Cardo scala-500 kills audio as well as mutes when I try to mute.

hello
i'm searching for a prog or a registry prog to get the comfort of profiles like a normal mobile phone.
best, with auto recognize for example, when a bt headset is connected.
f.e:
normal:
phone calls normal, i have to press a button to answer
outside
phone calls louder, i have to press a button to answer
quiet
nothing - maybe vibration or light, i have to press a button to answer
headset
calls once and then autoanswer
and maybe, all of individual profiles to one ofe the hardware-buttons and with the scroll wheel change?
greetings
karl

is there any only one button to do it? just silence?
You want the phone to continue ringing but just silence it?
Because when you get a call in the bottom there is "answer" and "ignore". Then again if you press ignore the one calling is directed to voicemail or just hung up.
As far as I know thats the only way to immediately mute a phonecall, just press ignore.
And otherwise just use the volume slider when someone is calling. Or put the phone on vibrate when you need silence (which is also volume slider all the way down, or put it on vibrate via the com-manager).
thanks. you mean only way to silence it using volume slider when want to continue ringing. i don't want to ignore calling. the caller must be think i didn't hear the ringing...
hehe lol
Perhaps an extra program on the device would work. Inesoft Addressbook might support it.
Have it here somewhere, can check later today if it indeed has a mute button.
Just to say it more clearly: If you move the volume slider one time in any direction, the phone will mute imediately!
I think this was not understood correctly before - this is the one-key-solution you wanted, isnt it?
thanks... it works!!!
Where can I find information on how to handsfree initiate a call from a bluetooth headset? My understanding is that Android 2.2 Froyo supports this. I have my Plantronics 975 headset synced and working, but can't get voice dial to initiate. Pressing the button on the headset just makes a beep, but doesn't do anything on the phone. Pressing the button twice redials the last number, but it did that on my old G1 with Android 1.6.
Is anyone using a Plantronics 975 with a G2? Does voice dialing work for you?
Thanks,
Tauren

No idea about the plantronics. With my headset (Sony DR-BT22), pressing the call button on the headset starts the voice dial app (audio through the headset) and a long-press performs a redial.
I figured it out and feel stupid now. But just in case someone else is having trouble, here's the answer...
* Hold down the main button for 2 seconds and voice dial starts (see http://bit.ly/bO0Gvo)
* Double press the main button and redial starts
* If bluetooth is not connected, single press the main button to connect.
* Not sure what a single press does if the connection is already established.
I never tried a long press because a really long press shuts the headset off. I didn't even think that there might be a "short long press" and a "long long press".
On my Moto H17 BT headset, it seems a single press on the button initiates the voice dialer on my G2, and a "short long press" redials.
Can anyone let me know how to do this? I use my phone as an audio player and often listen in bed at night, and twice now I've managed to press the 'pause' headset button twice by accident and thus redialled someone in the middle of the night!
I never use the headset's middle-button double-click-to-redial feature anyway, so I'd just like to disable it.

I'm using PowerAMP as media player on my Desire. Everything was alright using a "non-HD"-ROM. I used the button on my wired headset to control the media player.
After flashing a HD-ROM (ReflexTSenseHD v1.61 and 1.7) i can't controll the media player anymore, instead this happens after pressing the button
single click - opens Voice Dial
double click - redial last number
This seems to be a new feature in the HD-ROMs, question is: where can I disable it?
TIA
No one? All I want to do is disable the redial function of the headset cable, surely there must be a way to do something so simple?
Andre
found a solution. I've installed "Headset Button Controller" and everything is running fine again
Many thanks, that solves my problem fine, no more accidental redials now.
Now if someone could just write a small utility like this that's configurable (single-, double-, triple-clicks or long-press on any of the three buttons being assignable to various functions) that would be even more perfect!
Andre
In my case i can use single press for pause/play...
however I would like to be able to redial the last number when using wired headset on my Desire S.
can anyone suggest how to do this?
Is there a way to change the default action of a one button headset during a call from ending the call to muting the microphone instead? I tried several apps in Google Play like Headset Button Controler but it seems like they are not compatible with the G2. Thanks in advance.
