Hello, I use Doggcatcher for my podcasts. On my old stock android phone I was able to long press the volume up/down buttons on my wired headset to fast forward/rewind 15 seconds on a podcast. This is not working on Touchwiz. When I long press the volume just goes up/down. Settings on Doggcatcher are set up correctly to allow long pressing fast forward/rewind. Seems the issue is with Touchwiz. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this functionality turned back on? Thanks
Do you have 'for wired headsets' enabled in the Google voice > hands free settings? For some reason I couldn't skip tracks in Play Music unless that setting was enabled.

I found while running MP3's with coreplayer while using the Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 bluetooth headset, that the sound would play for about 5 seconds then cut out for about 5 seconds constantly.
I then realised it was as soon as I hit the "power" "sleep" button.
So to fix the problem I hit the power button then hit it again so the screen shows the screen lock page. Then put it in my pocket and it goes to sleep by itself but plays the music perfectly.
Not 100% sure why this is but thought I would share it!
This is happening to me with my HBH-IS800 as well. The audio keeps cutting out. I'll try your method and see if that works.
Are you able to control the volume of the IS800 outside of Coreplayer? Are you able to use the system volume or the volume in a player like Windows Media Player to control the volume? I'm unable to and it's really frustrating.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This also works for the wired headset/earphones... even with the "dont stop playing when screen off" fix it still cut out... but following this easy little step it worked...
I can't control the volume outside of coreplayer really annoying!
Hey peeps, basically I have a pair of headphones that only has one button on it, to start and stop music. I've noticed on windows media player that on the buttons tab, Play & Pause are linked to ENTER....which is the same button my headset is using to pause tracks.
What I want to be able to do is change the Next Track button to ENTER instead, this way I could change tracks without even getting my phone out. I've already tried to press my headset button whilst trying to re-assign buttons but that doesnt work. Is there anything out there to help me? I have a theory that if the keyboard could stay up when re-assigning buttons I may be able to do it. any ideas guys?
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.
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?
I can't get the button on a Bluetooth headset to properly control Google Play Music. The single button play/pauses correctly but double clicking doesn't skip to the next track. I've tried several apps from the app store (Headset Button Controller, Headset Control Tester, JAYS Headset Control, Smart Key, even Poweramp media player) to fix the issue none of them worked.
I'm not sure if those apps aren't compatible with the latest version of Android or if there's another Android service that's intercepting the bluetooth button clicks/commands. The Headset Button Controller app has a debug mode that's supposed to display a message detailing the command every time the button is clicked, which is similar to the entire purpose of the Headset Control Tester app. Neither app recognizes or displays anything when I click the button, the HBC FAQ says that could be because another app is instead taking the commands instead.
It's unsuccessful in Safe Mode as well, so if anything it's a default Android service that's causing this issue.
Does anyone have a bluetooth headset and have button controls working properly on 7.1.1?
Thank you
Edit: Actually, after restarting (and/or disabling the Google Play Music app) I can get the button click to be registered by the Headset Control Tester app (aka log). But it only registers single button clicks (as an ACTION_DOWN and ACTION_UP), double clicking the button (which produces a beep over the speakers) doesn't show up at all in the log.
on my headset I do a long press on volume up or down to skip songs... works on nougat
