Windows Media Player - No Turn Off while phone phone turned off

Hello
i need to know if there is any possibility to continue the playing of the windows media player when i turn off my mobile phone (so that the touchscreen can not be used, but phone still on)
the problem is that im going to work every morning and plugin my earphones to turn on the music for the way. i leave the phone in my jacket and because it is not turned off so you can use the touchscreen it happens very often that the touchscreen is touched and that the song turns louder, the next song comes, aso..... i do not like this, this is why i ask for a configuration that i save the screen so it cant be touched and i can hear music at the same time.
is there anything out?

You can set a key to disable the screen by using the "Menu" "Options..." "Keys" menu.
The last item (not sure, I'm using a french WM) is about Activating/Deactivating the screen.
Hope this will help you.

Another option is to use a bluetooth headset, which will keep the music playing even when you hit the power button. Another thing to consider would be a program such as Slide 2 Unlock, which can turn off the lcd according to a preset delay, but I'm not sure if media player would keep playing or not. Good luck!

I just use the audioprogram from htc with batterystatus, when I turn my phone off. the music keeps playing and my screen is off and keys locked

yea, the new HTC audio manager plugin (touchflo cab) allows you to turn off the screen while still playing the music. its a plus as a really nice audio player also.

Just assign a button in WMP to "Toggle Screen" this will do what youre looking for. No need for an entirely new media player.

Play Media Player while phone is (otherwise) off.
I had a ROM loaded on my phone that allowed MS Mediaplayer to stay active while my Tilt was 'off'. In fact, it was listed as a feature of that ROM. So I know that it's possible. Someone knows how to do it.​

keep music playing with screen off

hi all,
i use htc audio manager to play mp3s on the jade. however, the music stops whenever i press the power button to turn the screen off. anyone knows how to keep the music playing despite turning off the screen? it'll definitely save a lot of power with the screen off..
i've searched around and i've found some solutions which i've tried..for example deleting "disable_exit" and "enter_suspend" from registry, but it doesn't seem to work.. is there any other tweak i can do?
also..i download the htc audio manager today plugin and installed. however, i can't seem to be able to select it at settings>today>items..is it because the today plugin is only compatible for the previous versions of the audio manager?
so sorry for the long questions..thanks for any help!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Pressing the power button puts the phone to sleep.. everything sleep. This is how I work around. Set backlight to turn off after, say 1 min, and the music keeps playing even when the screen is turn off.

If you use Windows Media Player instead, you can set what you want to do with the button options.

If you use Windows Media Player instead, the on/off button will switch off the screen only instead .

I think that when you have earphones connected than you can turn off screen by power button and keep playing music in all media players.

^^Correct! When I'm listening to music using earphones, the music keeps on playing even after putting the device to sleep.... I use HTC Audio Manager...

yeah! i just tried with earphones and it worked nicely..hahas..should've just tried with headphones from the start..i was doing testing on the media players without earphones hahas..thanks all for the help

Resco Radio has an option to turn of the screen and the call buttons and leave the sound on.

Bluetooth...

It was no problem with my Pro2 to listen to Music via bluetooth !
Now with the LEO - which is the best device which I ever had - I can use the phone over bluetooh but hear no music.
I also marked under advanced the music button
Pls help me

I have a similar problem, though not quite the same. I am actually able to connect up my BT headset, but the advance controls no longer function; only voume control. No Pause, Forwards or Backwards! (in both Coreplayer & S2P).
They clearly recognise that a signal was recieved (if i try forwarding), however the player just minimises one receipt of the signal, and upon maximising just ignores the functions.
Anyone experiencing similar issues?

I just talked to HTC - they said probably it is the wrong device (head set)...

I have the same problem.

I have a problem with using my MOTOROKR T505 Bluetooth® In-Car Speakerphone, which in my old phone (nokia e71), worked like a dream. With Leo, connects ok, butafter playing for some time, will hickup for like 7-10 seconds, then resume, play for another minute, and repeat. This seems to coincide with the phone going to sleep? ie: after the screen turns black. I am running s2u2, and when the music stops, if i press any button to wake it up, it starts playing again. As long as i keep the screen active, it plays.
Is there a setting that is making Leo to "Standy", either in s2u2 or in OS?

HTC Music player randomly skipping music

Hi all, I'm new to the forums so don't be too harsh on me, and sorry if this has been asked before but I can't find it anywhere (skipped through like 15 pages)
I have a, in my eyes, huge problem with the HTC Music player, sometimes it just skips songs or fast forward through them, then it takes a while before it stops and I can listen to music again, and sometimes it won't stop and I have to turn my phone off and on for it to work again. This is really annoying and happens 4 or 5 times in my 1 hour trip to school.
As I said, it does occur randomly, but on some songs more often then others. I put them on my phone with Windows Media Player. I also keep it upside down in my pocket if that's a problem. I also tried other ear-phones but that didn't solve anything.
Thanks in advance and I hope there's a solution to this ^^ also, are there more people with this problem, I have searched the internet quite a bit but found no information whatsoever.

yes, I have same problem and its only when using not htc's headphones, so it must be a problem with headphones connector on HD2.
Friend of mine is having same problem.

Yeah, it works fine with HTC's crappy headphones. Doesnt work with my Shure's.It does work with my portable speakers though.

HTC Music skipping and stopping
My problem is that when i turn on HTC Music it works fine with headphones other than the HTC ones until i lock the screen. Then it cuts the music out once or twice then cuts off completely, all within 60 seconds of locking the screen.
Thinking this was a problem with the headphone's connection jack, as they are from an old Sony minidisc player, i went back to the crappy HTC headphones and the same thing happened!
Any ideas for a cure would be greatly appreciated as i get around by cycling and it defeats the purpose it i have to stop every 2 mins just to restart the player or answer the phone.
HTC HD2
OS Version5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila Version 2.5.19211619.0
ROM Version 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE
ROM Date 01/11/10
Radio Version 2.06.51.07
Protocol Version 15.30.50.07U

whenever there is incoming call while i am listening to music..... it will happen right after screen is off.
i called HTC support about this, but they said no such case reported and tested...
Now my solution is to press the Play button on Headphone or do not lock the screen.
Any permanent solution ?!
thanks alot !!

ive been having a problem when i hook it up to my dd monitor in my car, it goes wacky and changes songs and fast forwards, rewinds. its only when i hook up to the 3.5 jack from my deck, headphones is no issue...im stumped

Has anyone come up with a solution?I have the same problem when I hook up my Sensation to car radio through 3.5mm.Starts fast forwarding and skipping through songs.

the stock earphones come with 4 metal pieces in the jack, while the others have 3.. my theory is that non-stock headphones sometime mimic a press of one of the buttons. as this also happens to me sometimes while removing the stock headphones from the device.
if you're good with welding stuff, buy a 4piece jack and connect the new headphones to it

Found a fix was hoping for sometype of patch but this works to.Do a search for, "headset blocker" in the market.

music stops when suspended (on speaker)

while I press suspend/power button during listening the music via headphones connected to jack port, music still plays.
problem comes when I want to listen the music "at loud" via build-in speakers. every time I press suspend button or even the phone locks itself (s2u2), the music stops to play :|
how to fix issue.

This is normal behaviour and You can't do anything to fix it.
Install this small CAB and go to the menu/programs - now You can turn off your screen without stopping the music
I'm using this form some time and works very well
