Is it possible to use the nook color as an alarm? I am not sure if the device going to "sleep" will allow to do so.
I use it sometimes. The speaker is a bit quiet though... not the greatest. Try one like alarmdroid or one that plays music.

Just wondering if there is a app/rom or tasker setting that can allow me to skip songs using the button on my earphones. I remember in Bionix I could pause/play but couldn't skip, and now that I'm on macnut R2 I don't even have that. Its the one thing I miss having upgraded from the iphone.
I'm also interested in this
Are you using the stock music app? Maybe try a different one like winamp?

Hi all,
Anyone happen to know how to stop Spotify from stopping playback for a second when a notification comes in from another app with Android 4.2?
Cheers!
That's a feature but some apps lower the volume for a second then raise it again while others pause.

So is there no way around it?

Probably an obvious solution, but you can always kill notification sounds and just have it vibrate as an alert. Spotify shouldn't pause.
I have also always been annoyed by this. The apps playing the notification sound are the ones that determine if the music is paused or not right? I know that Chomp SMS has an option to NOT play notifications when playing music. So apps know when music is playing and can avoid the interruption.
I haven't seen other apps with that option, at least not the others I commonly use. So what I do is I have notifications disabled for most of my apps, but I like to know when I get a Gmail message, and Gmail will always pause my music (unless I set the phone to vibrate) which I don't like.
The main problem is when I stream music to my little Belkin audio gateway at home. If I set it on vibrate/silent, I can't hear the phone ring because the ringtone does not play through the A2DP music profile. I don't always have the phone with me because my range is limited (can't wait for a miracast affordable streaming audio solution).
I would love the music volume to be lowered while the notification plays, and then restore volume when it's over. Is there a ROM that does this? I know I used some ROMs on my EVO that did it, but don't know if there's a Nexus 4 ROM that will do the same.
I did set up a task with Automateit to set the phone to vibrate when Spotify is open. I think it will only do that when music is playing and not if the app is running in the background, but when downloading a playlist, it will do the same. Tasker probably has a better trigger so that it does this when music is playing, but I didn't want to pay the $7 for it today.
Shush! is another option if you know how long you will be listening to music, you can tell Shush to turn your ringer back on after an hour, but it's still not perfect.
how come in google music and amazon player it doesn't stop (whatsapp) but in spotify it does?

which spotify or whatsapp im wondering whos going to get my strongly worded email?
I know on some ROMs, like paranoid, you can revoke specific privileges and permissions for each app. Could we remove Spotify's ability to know the phones notification state?

I also found this annoying, especially while watching video etc. The only solution I ever found was to mute the sounds, which stopped the alerts interrupting the music or video playback, and as a bonus, you still hear the ringer through the headphones
If you have/use tasker, you can create a policy that detects when your watching films or listening to music and automatically sets the alerts to mute, then sets it back when your done.
But how to mute? I selected mute sounds in configuration and player stopped too.

I just mute it using the mute/vbrate toggle in the quick setting menu and still am able to play music via google play or videos
Hi,
Is there any way to play music while on a call?
I'm back on stock Bell ROM and rooted but thinking about going back to xtrastolite as it's way better.
Thanks,

And why do you need to listen to music while on a call?
For instance if I wanted to play a song on voicemail or a recorded call to another person.

So do I understand you correctly, you would like to be on a call on your phone and then play a audio file (Song, VM, whatever) outloud so they can hear it as though you were holding 2 devices?
If that's right I think that would be a multi level challenge. Problem you will face I believe is the rom itself is pretty deeply coded to mute music for calls, for gps, etc... so MIGHT be a possibility would be to install a 3rd party music player and code the output of that player to say the REAR speaker and ignore any pause or mute requests, but idk for sure... I bet this would be a lot of close one door open 2 more kinda thing for a while.
So, for several weeks this was working fine, where if I was using poweramp for instance, my notifications came through my buds. Sometime after I upgraded to the alpha, all sounds got diverted to the speaker (both music and call tone or notification), and then the music comes back. Can anyone state how theirs is working with poweramp? Admins at poweramp suggest it's the phone dictating this in the threads I found. I also found one thread where someone said, they could "fix" this by temporarily using the factory buds... (this is just with poweramp, my stock player works fine)
Extremely annoying...
Also, anyone know what this volume icon (the bottom one) means? I get it in poweramp, but not for the stock player....
The icon is for screen cast

To be more specific: its for everything that goes over the G Cast API, no matter if its just sound casted from a audioplayer or screensharing
Thanks! Can anyone comment on how their notifications are working with poweramp alpha?
