Hi all,
I have had my Hero since January, its all been perfect really apart from my headphones i use the standard ones which came with the mobile, so it comes with a small remote to control the music(fastforward/rewind/pause etc) I can still listen to music fine when using the headphones
for some Reason i cant use them anymore, none of the buttons responds while playing music, i can understand the remote being broken but then i still cant hold down the fastforward and rewind buttons onscreen to do it.
It would seem like the remotes broken but then why cant i still hold down fast forward on the phone itself to do the operation?
the remote is broken, you should get yourself a new one. I guess the microphone doesn't work as well, I had the same problem once.
the onscreen buttons of the default htc music app do not allow to fast forward or rewind.

The only set of earphones that works perfectly for me, is a set of earphones, with 4 METAL parts divided by 3 PLASTIC parts -/-/-/- (in the " male" Jack pin that sticks into the hole)...the standard "stereo" Jack didn't work for radio...(I.e. -/-/- ) I think you need the set with an inline volume control. (Just my experience ). Other "media" (movies,music,web,etc work fine with simple 3 part pin...
Anyone else try a 4 piece vs a 3 piece male pin, for FM?
that makes perfect sense why if I have my headphones half unplugged suddenly I get great reception. someone at HTC HQ really didn't think the placement of the antenna connection through properly.

I know!
I was going to exchange my phone for a new one, I was getting tired of using the "official JIGGLE TECHNIQUE", to play radio.
Three things:
1) Radio works AWESOME now, scanner is good, but the radio "pops" when moving about(like walking or riding a bike) like the old car radios... how did car radios get fixed?
2) The inline button works for turning on and off the Music Player, while I'm web browsing! I can also change volume and skip songs with the inline button! CM6-RC1
3) I have no radio with CM6-RC1

First thread...new-b
I wanted to edit my reply, but a new reply was posted...
I must have hit the wrong button...
Then I couldn't figure out how to delete my new post.
Anyway, I can't "volume control" from the inline button(up/down) but it can skip songs(two fast clicks,while a song is playing) ... it can turn on/off songs(even while web browsing-without interrupting your web page...or seeing the player)...
But you can go to the player with one long button push, then back to your web page with the "Back arrow" button on the phone.
I am just using the default Samsung music app, so maybe a simple player switch will suffice...
I am coming from a iPhone 5. One thing the iPhone does very well is play music. There are a copy of issues with my S4 in this regard that are driving me crazy, I am hoping you guys can help me resolve them:
1. Volume rocker on headphones does not control music volume. As far as I can tell the volume rocker just doesnt do anything at all. Is there a way to make this control music / voice levels? Very annoying having to fish for the phone to actually move the volume rocker.
2. Previous doesnt work. On the iPhone you can triple click the button on the headset to either restart the current song or go back to the previous song that was playing before. I used this quite often as i sometimes like to Binge on a particular soundtrack. This does not seem to work currently, triple pressing the button simply goes to the next song (double tap) and then pauses (single tap).
Loving the S4 so far, I definitely hope the above is something that is possible to fix though. Thanks a lot guys!
Try google play music? The volume thing worked on my s3 however I've yet to test ion s4... Also i use poweramp
sgh-i747(d2att)(sgs3) on latest cm10.1 or ultimatum
my headphones work on the s4 so far... volume and pause/skip tracks also works. single tap button to pause, double tap to skip etc. maybe u got a faulty headset?
Yeah sounds like a faulty headset...mine works

Or push it further in maybe? It seems to be hard at first to press in the headphone all the way... loosen up over time
Questions go in Q&A
Thread moved

remember it has to be the s4 headphone not apples they wont work
I use my phone to play music at work, and rather than fumble through my pockets to try to get the music app open to pause a song, I'd rather just reach in my pocket for a remote to quickly press a button. I can't use headphones at work, so I'm not looking for any headsets, rather a remote.
I bought this:

But I got jipped, as it doesn't work for it
Anybody know of any?
I like to listen to audible.com books with my phone. On my HTC M8, I could use the 3 botton headphone remote to pause playback, or advance or jump back using the buttons on the headphone remote.
On some other phones, the 2nd and 3rd buttons either do nothing, or can only be used to adjust volume.
Has anybody used the included wired headphone remote, or another one, to skip forward or back on the ZTE Axon 7?
I do not use Audible, but the included headphone remote only has volume up and down, with a middle button that pauses. If your app has settings that let you customize the remote buttons just for that app, you may be able to reassign these. Otherwise, it doesn't seem like it.

Thanks, I really appreciate the response. Looks like I'll be getting my phone on Monday from B&H and I'll begin to find out.
Hi! Is skipping music tracks with the volume button available in Nougat?
While I love the idea of trying out Nougat on my S7 Edge, the one feature that I CANNOT live without is the Physical Button Music Control - ie skip music tracks with a long press of the volume button (why oh why, Samsung, in 2017 is this not a default feature? It forces me to have to take my phone out of my pocket every time I want to skip a track. Not cool...but that's a topic for another day).
To achieve this in Marshmallow (6.0.1), I use the Physical Button Music Control module for the Xposed framework. This works flawlessly.
Here's my question - is this function available in Nougat? I know Xposed probably isn't and maybe won't be for a long time. If so, and if there's no native functionality to do this, then I'll stay on 6.0.1 for now. I've tried 3rd party apps on from the Play store and none seem to work as well as the Xposed one.
I've been using this feature since my S2 custom rom days. I still can't believe it's not a standard feature. Yes, there are physical buttons on the included headphones, but they're no match for my Grados, so don't even offer a different headphone as a solution to this!
Thanks in advance!!
i miss this too.i have learned that, when using the headphone, if i double press the play/pause button, it skips to next track...
its no a full control, but it is something =D
That's great that you've got that work around. But I don't use headphones that have inline controls. I find it hard to believe that people just accept that they have to take their phone out and skip tracks that way if they don't have inline controls.
I wonder what the percentage is for people who operate this way?
The long volume press is such an elegant solution to skipping tracks. I'm surprised it isn't a standard adopted by Google in general. Maybe I'm missing something. If you're a person who doesn't have an inline remote, please tell me how you cope.
