[Q] How do I make the volume button play the next song? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hey, I just got this phone but on my 2 old phones I remember using a program called button remapper and made it change songs when I hit the volume down button.
What's the easiest way with the S4?
I ride a motorcycle and it's the easiest way to change tracks with it in my pocket..
Thanks for any advice

-Get rooted
-download and install Xposed Installer
-find on xda Nottach Xposed install that
-go to Xposed Installer go to modules check Nottach Xposed
-go back to Nottach Closed and go to Sound then click skip tracks with volume keys
-then listen to some Strange Music skipping tracks with ur volume buttons! Lol
There's a lot of cool stuff to check out on that app just saying if you like other custom stuff!

Thanks. I tried that but it made my phone not boot up. I had to use the recovery file manager to delete the xposed folder to get it starting again.. =\

Never heard of that before used it many times. Are you using a tw ROM?

Does not go into recovery

ok first off i am using my first nexus device which is the nexus 7. i have recently unlocked and rooted it so that i can flash paranoidandroid onto it. i used the google nexus 7 toolkit 4.0.0 too. so when i hold down the volume rocker buttons, i get into fast boot mode. after that i select recovery but when i do that, it goes pixelated for a sec and a dead android guy appears with a explanation mark over him. I'm assuming it already has a clockwork mod but if not can someone please help me?
Check your app drawer for cwm. If it's not there download it from the play store, once installed open it up and flash it. Or go back to your toolkit and flash it .

CWM or ROM Manager. It's also unnecessary to hold the volume keys to get the bootloader; hold power until the Google screen (maybe not necessary), at which point you just press volume down.

well i went into the toolbox and flashed clock work mod and its still doing the same thing. any ideass???
Sorry I meant download ROM manager. I stand corrected. Thank you. Once it installs try flashing cwm from there. If that doesn't work you might have to go back to stock and start over.
Hope this helps

What's the toolbox? Use ROM Manager.

Yeah it still doesn't work
Does it boot up and function normal? Are you sure you have root?
I think you should start over. Try flashing stock 4.2.1. See what happens.
I am also very new to this. I really messed mine up twice. I had to start over time and time again just to get mine working.
Reading on here a lot of people don't like these toolkits. You have to follow the directions given to you from the toolkit to perfection or they don't work. Trust me, I learned the hard way.
I can't help with adb (I'm still trying to learn)
The toolkit will work. Like I said, try flashing a stock ROM. If the toolkit let's it flash then there is no reason it won't flash cwm.
Read the directions

did you delete the recovery-from-boot.p/ file? you would have to if youre using the stock rom, or the stock recovery will replace the custom recovery every time. use root explorer or a similar root file manager to delete it.
It'd probably be best to flash a recovery image through fastboot. You can find both CWM and TWRP in the dev section.

Also I noticed that it always worked if I plugged it into a PC. I don't know weird glitch I guess.

[Q] S Health Crashes

I know this has been asked before, but i never found any answer. I am rooted, but completely stock with ClockworkMod 6.0.3.2. I got this phone last week and s health has never worked for me. I tried clearing data, but i got to the setup and after that it is back to square one. I am really interested in using this feature, but i cant use it.
Questions and Help issues go in Q&A and Help section

You're not alone
Picked up my S4 on the 10th and had to return it for the same reason that the app force closes upon startup. Tried to cure the issue with firmware reinstall using KIES. Same result and the Samsung transfer app does the same thing. Spent many hours with level 2 &3 tech support at both the Carrier and Mfg. They both finally admitted that the official software is flawed and a new version is coming "soon".. Great price at AT&T I have a second device that freezes and the apps force close. I'm going back to my Note until they fix the issue.

I know that happened when I had all apps in multi Window hack. Never had that problem stock though. Did you have problems before rooting?

My s health has always worked even after rooting but also wanted to let you know that the s health app was updated a while back through the Samsung apps store. There was one update since launch but not sure if that'll fix it if you log in and update?

Yes the multi Window hack messes up s-health. Disable/uninstall the hack and it will work. You can use Nottach's xposed app to get unlimited multi Window or this app ftom play store.

SOLUTION
i figured it out now, thanks. you have to...
make sure you have the most recent S-Health app from Samsung Hub/Apps
install nottach xposed system
install the multiwindow module
install the multiwindow app from app store
add/remove apps from multiwindow (make adjustments to what you will/wont use)
disable multiwindow module in nottach xposed modules section
reboot
:good:
S-Health working with Goldeneye 1.3 ROM, Ktoonsez kernel, Multiwindow mod working, and much more. My phone is now 100% functional, BLAZING fast, and i am done modding it.
IDK
How do I install the nottach xposed system?
and where do i find the multiwindow module?
Thank You

Nottach mod will also cause the s health to crash. I had that problem on shostock and shoman94 helped me to resolve the issue. Nottach was the culprit. Uninstalled and everything works great now. The multi window manager app in the play store seems to work without any issues. Hope this helps.

you are correct in saying multi Window manager app works. Nottach's does also. I checked myself. I flashed the crap pack for wanam to get s-health and am using s-health and nottach's app with multi Window hack fine. I believe you just can't select s-health to be in the multi Window bar.

Why not just use a file explorer with root rights to uninstall system apps by going to
/system/app and deleting it?
Odds are you'll have a file explorer already.. don't see the point in an entire separate app just for that purpose.
You can't do that when it is preinstalled into the framework of the settings of a rom

Viper4android on KK not working.

I just updated to 4.4.2 (stock, deodex) and to my surprise I can't get into the sound fx settings. It crashes. Everything installed correctly from what I could tell. I saw in this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/viper4android-soundfix-4-4-1-4-4-2-t2564725 there is a fix but it's a nexus 4 forum. Does anyone know if I can use this method for my note 3? I'm on the latest safestrap (3.72) and want to verify I won't brick my phone or if it's even possible to flash the zip file with safestrap. Thanks guys.

It worked for me by doing the following
Copy all to system, priv app, the changing permissions to rw-r-r, then rebooting immediately
Then as soon as it boots you will see the Android is updating the go to settings, the sound and select Viper and reboot again
Then go into your build prop and change the settings and save go into app and download drivers, then reboot
From there you should be working . Make sure not to change the email settings in music on Samsung music app If you are using that or any other player as that has given me issues I leave everything alone and it works for me when streaming via Bluetooth even with the stock music app I don't use world headphones so not sure if it works there but I've tested on:
Samsung stock music app
Mxplayer
Sirius xm
allshare cast

Correct...you made sure busy box is installed and changed build prop ? I have had a similar issue trying to manually install apk . So I deleted it and just downloaded it from the play store and installed it that way.
P.S. also realize it doesn't work with the stock music player. Only 3rd party music players.
