On my old phone (xperia x8) i can do it "Long press volume keys to skip tracks when screen off" without problems, but on my new Lenovo k3 note i can't . Any suggestions ? For now i'm using 'Pocket Skip Track' app ,but only with single click to skip track and i cant control the volume when screen is off ( the 'Pocket Skip Track' have option for 'Long press volume keys' but didn't work for me) . BTW I'm with root and vibeui 2.8 1535 ST ROM
Well if you have rooted ur device then try the xposed app and install the XVolumeSkipTrack module. It worked for my previous devices bt havent tried with k3. :good:
try Frinky Music Controller https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=frinky.volumeKeys.music.controller&hl=en
supports more than 200 music player including spotify and soundcloud.
single press control music and more than one press control volume,
long press can not be detected in stock rom.
Enjoy if it works in your phone

I want to turn off the screen while listening to the media player on the speaker. Normally this can be fixed by configuring a hardware button.
Open up Windows Media Player on your Pocket PC
Tap Menu > Options > tap the right arrow to toggle over to the Buttons tab
Tap the Buttons tab and scroll down the page to the end until you see the "Toggle Screen" option. Tap it to highlight it, then tap the Assign button and then press the button you 'll press to toggle the screen on or off.
Tap OK at the top of the screen and you're done.

However, I can not find a button which works. Has anyone an idea to fix this?
yep me too
yep, i have this problem too. like to go to sleep listening to the player but then the light stays on the whole time!
any update
A work around
I have had the same problem. My solution is to use AE button plus.
I've assigned Volume up key as follows. 1 click - up arrow, 2 click - page up and long click - volume up.
(Similar for down volume)
Next in media player I assigned up volume key to toggle screen.
Now when I 1x click volume up the screen toggles, but if I long click I get volume bar which then allows volume keys to work as normal ie Single clicks up/down volume.
alternatively if you're just listening to music you could install nitrogen player. which is far better than the standard media player (imo)

just press the 'power' icon and the screen will switch off and the audio continue to play.

Pocket music is also good
Nitrogen! It's superb. And, the volume buttons still work with the screen off (although the latest build links its own volume to the system volume which causes problems - I use v1.0 which leaves system volume separate).
You can use PowerOptions to turn off the screen while listening to music, see here :

Trick
Hi,
This is a trick that works with the Touch.
1. play some music with the Headphones jacked in
2. with the headphones still in, turn off the screen
3. pull out your headphones and the mediaplayer will use the built in speaker, even though the screen is OFF.
try it and report the results
no warranty, since it works with my Touch, but I don´t know, it may work with the Diamond II.
Didn´t work
Uhmmmm!!
I got my Diamond 2 last weekend and I tried this without success.
Sorry guys
Hi,
I was wondering if the touch HD can be adjusted so that the volume buttons can be used during music playback (with screen truned off)to change tracks up or down depending on which button is pressed for some seconds?
You know like it does with the volume(where screen is off yet buttons functionality is available)
itll save time having to take the phone out of your pocket everytime...
I personally use AEButton Plus. With this program you can reassign all buttons with new Commands.
The config is:
Volume Up
One Press - Up (Last Title)
Double Press - Volume Up
Volume Down
One Press - Down (Next Title)
Double Press - Volume Down

Try the Core Player. It has this feature built-in that you can assign any function to any button. Also some ROMs are tweaked to skip tracks with volume buttons when screen is off (like Laurentius26's V4) with HTC Sense's player.
im not that keen on downloading unofficial roms anymore but ill give core player a try
Thanks
How to add to the volume button function to next and previous music like it was in the C905 hold volume button and music next and previous
I know that it work when on the screen is music is working but it does not in standby mode and when the screen is off
(This function was very useful in c905 and all walkman)
Pls.
P.S thanks in advance
You can only use the volume buttons to skip tracks if mediascape is open on your phone and the screen is unlocked! which is totally pointless!!!!! The only way i have found to skip tracks easilly is download a music player like poweramp or something and use the button on your handfree set to skip the tracks!
hey guys, I use to use an app that allowed me to use the volume rocker buttons to control my music playback. Basically, the way it works is you quickly double click the volume up rocker to skip a song and double click the down volume rocker to replay/go back. You can use this functionality with the screen off and if you press the volume rocker at "normal" speed, it would control volume as usual. I used to use the app but since I switched to my N4, I somehow lost it and can't remember the name of the app in the play store. Any ideas?
Thanks!!
I was looking for one also and came across one called "Pocket Skip Track" on the play store.
Works great on stock 4.3 aosp. Hope that's what you were looking for!

If you are rooted, you can try any rom, all the roms here have that feature to change the song by long pressing the volume up button and play the previous song by pressing the volume down button.. I am on Slimbean and it has this feature so no need to waste the valuable space of our phones when you can get the feature in the rom itself.

Hello,
I have searched on the forum but there is talk of changes only on deodexed Rom.
I would like to have the ability to change song with volume keys on stock (rooted) rom. I did it with cyanogen on my s3 but on the nexus is not possible.
My second question is always about changing songs.
I bought a Philips shb9100 bluetooth headset. On many phones you can go forward or backward by pressing the volume knob once, returning to its normal position and then immediately hold down the wheel again. This does not work on the nexus 5.
Does anyone know an app that can be useful?
Thanks to all,
xSl

try Frinky Music Controller (No root required)
I always wanted to have an app which controls music with volume keys but i could not find any which does it smoothly. So I developed my own . My app Frinky Music Controller on GOOGLE PLAY controls music with volume keys and smartly controls music volume. It supports more 200 music players and Spotify. It works on both rooted and non-rooted phones.
Some features of the app are :
Next Song -- press volume UP key single time to play next song.
Previous Song -- use volume DOWN key to play previous song.
Control Volume -- when we want to control music volume , most of the time we press volume key more than once (next time when you adjust volume , feel it) . So the app uses this tendency of users as a function to control music volume i.e press volume key more than once to adjust volume.
Stop song -- Oh! you play music in your class in absence of professor here comes the professor .... turn off the music quickly by UP+UP+DOWN+DOWN key action (it takes less time than muting the volume and unlocking the screen .
Sleep Timer : Single sleep timer for all your music apps.
Manually control app's service : well to understand this feature you will have to download the app.
It consumes very less amount of ram.
