I have a question about the headphones with controls that are bundled with the Note 3. They have 3 buttons for volume up, down, and pause.
The thing is, I use Poweramp as my primary music player, and whenever I double click the pause button to go to the next song it takes my phone off vibrate and turns on its system audio. This is a pain in the ass for when I don't want my notification/ringtone sounds on, but am listening to music and want to skip songs using the headset controls.
Any thoughts or solutions for this issue? Are there any headset settings in the menus that I'm missing?

All,
I have an issue when I am on the phone and press the dongle mute button it starts the music player. Obviously, this causes an issue as I have music playing in the headphones while the call is going on. Any ideas on how to disable this? I have a mytouch3g running cyanmod4.0.4 and the hero community remix theme.
Is this the right behavior
Can anyone confirm that this is how the phone should act? When you are on a call using the supplied dongle and headset, if you push the mute button on the dongle should it start the music player? Then if you press it again it will stop. This coincides with the phone going on and off of mute. Obviously a big issue since the music starts playing in the headphones while a call is going on.
Just trying to see if this is the correct behavior or if there is an issue/bug/setting for my setup. Cyan4.04 w/hero comm mix theme
I use my music player quite a lot, and am looking for ways to improve on the experience on Android phones.
What I wish to do is to be able to control the music in the following ways, regardless of whether the screen is turn off or on, and regardless of whether the music program is running in the foreground or background.
- long press volume up button: go to next song
- long press volume down button: goo to previous song
- press both button together: toggle between play and pause.
- normal volume up and down still controls the volume
I found a program in the market place, but it only works when the music player is in the foreground, and the screen must be on.
I use this feature a lot on my iPhone before bed, and hope I can do the same on my SGS.
Is there such a program you're aware of in the Market place?
that's interesting
however, I find it easier using my Bluetooth A2DP for that sort of things.
it works both in my car and my stereo headset
i can remote control the play of the music before/next, stop, pause, play, random, volume, etc
best is, if a phone comes in, it automatically switches to phone mode, and when the call is over, it resumes back to music mode.
The only single problem i've found is, i don't know now to answer the 2nd call via bluetooth, if 2 people are calling me at the same time.
I don't use Bluetooth. Also, I love connecting the music player to a proper sounding speaker system in my bedroom and lounge.
Hi, I have a problem when listening to music:
An incoming notification used to stop my music when a notification arrived. Now, I downloaded a music player with more options - I disabled the options which stopped music after headset was unplugged. It helped a little:
Now, when I listen to music and a notification comes, the music plays loud from the speaker for about a second or two, then going back to headset.
Happened on ICS, so I jumped back on GB. Same effect.
Also, I found out notification sounds are played always through the phone, not the headset.
EDIT: Found out this one is normal.
Try PowerAMP. Pauses at unplug, starts again at plug. If you get a notification, music stops playing a few seconds, speaker plays the notif. sound, and the music continues on headset.
PowerAMP
Poweramp is what I meant by "Now, I downloaded a music player with more options" ...
Thats the player which disables pause-on-headset-unplug, but it makes the problem I described (the second one) ...
If I play music with Google Play Music for a while via a Bluetooth headset, I am losing the headset controls, meaning skip, pause, volume have no effect anymore.
I can fix this by turning on the display and manually pause and resume the music. Then the headset controls do work again.
Anyone else seeing this?
Hey guys have a very specific issue.
I have a galaxy note 3 with sprint. My car is subaru impresa 2013.
The issue is when my phone connects to the car media through blue tooth. When I turn on my car the phone pairs automatically. And the music starts playing right away. The phone determine which app to use based on a which app I used to play music last time. Right now I using the Samsung music app and Google Music app.
Issue 1
When the music is playing occasionally you hear a crackling noise for a second. Which kind of disturbs the flow of the music. I monitored the phone to see if it was any sort of notifications that would trigger the interruption but no notifications happen at that time. I also went to blue tooth settings and only enabled the media Audio profile. That did not seem to fix the issue. This lead to a the second issue.
issue 2
When the phone is playing music while connected to the car media it would stop the music and not play. At that point the phones home button stops working. So you cannot go back to the main screen unless you restart (pull the battery the power button does not work either) the phone or use the back button to the right of home button.
Issue 3
When the phone connects to the car media automatically car media does not read the song info. For example artist and title. I have to restart the blue tooth in order for that info to appear on the car media screen. This also presents you from changing songs from your wheel buttons.. basically if you can see the song info on the car screen then you can switch songs. If you cannot see the song info on the car screen then you can't use the controls to switch songs.
Please if any one know what's going on I would appreciate your input... I have few more days to swap the phone if this is hardware issue.
