Audio Headset Clicker question - Epic 4G General

Hey guys ,
New here,and i wanted to ask.
I've been fiddling with the headseat buttons, and is it possible to have it setup as well as the Itouch/Iphone's headset clicker?
Meaning, Double Click to skip to the next song, triple for Rewind or go back to the previous song, once to play, Hold to Voice Call/recognition
ect..
Is it possible or does it have a setting that isn't active?
Thank you

I would love to hear about this too, I was wondering this myself for quite sometime.

New Music features in arc

Hey guys, i don know if many noticed this or not, after the update to 2.3.3, I can now control the music playback with the help of the headset that comes with the piece.
At first it could only pause or play the music with the click of the button but now the following are possible
press 2 times continuously and it will go to the next track
press 3 times continuously and it will go to the previous track
Now if they could only add a shuffle and repeat standalone buttons on the screen, the music player will be near perfect.
Great find thanks!
I think this was there before 2.3.3?
i personally checked it while running on 2.3.2 and i checked it on my friend's mobile who is running it on 2.3.2 and i can vouch that it was not there in the previous version.
hmmm cool...
Very nice, but my main problem is the continuous repeat without the ability to disable it.

i think u just have to set the shuffle on first? and then when you press twice and it will be on shuffle already=)
In FM radio, press 2 times continuously and it will go to the next chanel

Is there a easy way to improve MP3 experience?

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

[Q] Headset Button Bug?

Hey Guys,
I have a quick question about headset button controls.
Back in 4.2 I was able to start and stop music with a single click of the button, skip tracks by double clicking, and voice search with a hold of the button. All with the screen off.
After going to 4.2.2 I seem to have lost all functionality except for the single click pause/play.
I thought maybe it was a stock android thing, so I tried a few roms and still, nothing. My next thought was it was a hardware thing, so I tried the same test on my Galaxy Nexus running 4.2.2 and still... nothing (although when the screen is on all the functionality is there)
Is this a known bug? I really want my functionality back as it's very helpful when I bike, I've tried apps like jays headset or whatever and they are just cumbersome and lame, so I'm curious if there's a way to bring this back?
I'm running the latest PA (4.2.2 obviously) with single button skullcandy earphones and the Jays headset control app and I can do a double tap to skip song and triple tap to go back as well as the standard play/pause functionality so I'd recommend reinstalling the Jays app and messing around with some of the settings to try to get it to work. One thing I do know (and it's absolutely ridiculous) is that you can no longer press and hold to perform any functions which just seems quite odd to me.

[Q] Headphone with control buttons not working.

Hey all,
I got another question that might be interesting to ask.
So today i got my denon urban raver ah-d401 which has some controlls to pause play answer calls, change volume and all that but it doesnt work.
Only thing that works is the "menu" button to pause and play music. is it possible to make tha volume controlles work ? Its actually made for iDevices but there must be a solution for this?

Nougat - Physical button music controls

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.
