continued music play in stanby - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

is there a cab or reg change to keep the music on in standby
i dont want the screen and keys on during musicplay while in pocket or cardock
this worked in the qtek9100 but not on tp2
thanx

Using either the TF3D music player or WMP, I've no problems with playback with the screen off by default. Are you using some other player?

Hello,
I have the same problem on my HTC Touch Pro2 T7383 (Orange FR).
If someone find a solution, I will be glad to have it !
I use the Manilla interface, not the WMP one.
Thanks.

I also have the same problem. Turning the screen off is not the same has hitting the standby button. I think that's where there is some confusion.
Is there a way to make the standby button a screen off button if you use a long press?

As long as you have your headset connected to the device, the TF3D/manila music player or WMP will continue to play your music even if the screen is turned off.
It will not play with the screen off if you use the device's speakers.

I just let me screen timeout and my music continues playing....

There must be something I'm missing here because I'm really confused. There are only a couple of states that your device can be in:
1. Screen on; Backlight on
2. Screen on; Backlight off
3. Screen off
4. Standby
5. Off
Music playback through the headset works fine by default in the following states 1, 2, and 3.
I thought Standby was a state in which everything in your device goes into a powersaving mode where only the radio is active (so that you can still receive calls and messages). So wouldn't it by definition be impossible to continue music playback on Standby?
Appreciate it if someone could enlighten me on this...

this is indeed what I mean.
in mode 1, 2 and 3 playback works, but when hitting the top hardkey / standby the playback stops.
there must be a reg setting to keep playback on same as for instance wifi always on even in standby.
with the wifi regedit, wifi stays connected to the network even when hitting the standbybutton.
thanx

Really? That's odd because playback continues as normal when I turn the screen off with the power button. (This is of course with the headset connected. Without the headset, playback will stop.)
Btw, this is probably not helpful to this issue that you guys are having but I think it's important to get the essentials correct. When you press and release the power button with the device and screen on, it doesn't immediately put your device into standby mode. All it really does is turn off the display. When the display is off for a particular amount of time (a couple of seconds), your device will go into standby. If I'm using my device to listen to music and turn off the screen with the power button, it never goes into standby. I know this because I have danielherrero's LockDevice app. I've set it to autolock the device when it wakes up from standby. Since my device never when into standby during the music playback, my device never gets autolocked when I'm listening to music.

Have you tried this?

Windows Media Player - No Turn Off while phone phone turned off

Hello
i need to know if there is any possibility to continue the playing of the windows media player when i turn off my mobile phone (so that the touchscreen can not be used, but phone still on)
the problem is that im going to work every morning and plugin my earphones to turn on the music for the way. i leave the phone in my jacket and because it is not turned off so you can use the touchscreen it happens very often that the touchscreen is touched and that the song turns louder, the next song comes, aso..... i do not like this, this is why i ask for a configuration that i save the screen so it cant be touched and i can hear music at the same time.
is there anything out?
You can set a key to disable the screen by using the "Menu" "Options..." "Keys" menu.
The last item (not sure, I'm using a french WM) is about Activating/Deactivating the screen.
Hope this will help you.
Another option is to use a bluetooth headset, which will keep the music playing even when you hit the power button. Another thing to consider would be a program such as Slide 2 Unlock, which can turn off the lcd according to a preset delay, but I'm not sure if media player would keep playing or not. Good luck!
I just use the audioprogram from htc with batterystatus, when I turn my phone off. the music keeps playing and my screen is off and keys locked
yea, the new HTC audio manager plugin (touchflo cab) allows you to turn off the screen while still playing the music. its a plus as a really nice audio player also.
Just assign a button in WMP to "Toggle Screen" this will do what youre looking for. No need for an entirely new media player.
MJB
Sorry to Bump this up but can someone tell me how to listen to music in audio manager while screen is off please, i searched and searched and the only answers i see are use another player (which I dont wantm I orefer audio manager) and "mine works when my screen is off" (thanks for the help???) Did anyone have the same problem as me and fix it? Thanks in advance
Play Media Player while phone is (otherwise) off.
I had a ROM loaded on my phone that allowed MS Mediaplayer to stay active while my Tilt was 'off'. In fact, it was listed as a feature of that ROM. So I know that it's possible. Someone knows how to do it.​

keep music playing with screen off

hi all,
i use htc audio manager to play mp3s on the jade. however, the music stops whenever i press the power button to turn the screen off. anyone knows how to keep the music playing despite turning off the screen? it'll definitely save a lot of power with the screen off..
i've searched around and i've found some solutions which i've tried..for example deleting "disable_exit" and "enter_suspend" from registry, but it doesn't seem to work.. is there any other tweak i can do?
also..i download the htc audio manager today plugin and installed. however, i can't seem to be able to select it at settings>today>items..is it because the today plugin is only compatible for the previous versions of the audio manager?
so sorry for the long questions..thanks for any help!

Pressing the power button puts the phone to sleep.. everything sleep. This is how I work around. Set backlight to turn off after, say 1 min, and the music keeps playing even when the screen is turn off.
If you use Windows Media Player instead, you can set what you want to do with the button options.
If you use Windows Media Player instead, the on/off button will switch off the screen only instead .
I think that when you have earphones connected than you can turn off screen by power button and keep playing music in all media players.
^^Correct! When I'm listening to music using earphones, the music keeps on playing even after putting the device to sleep.... I use HTC Audio Manager...
yeah! i just tried with earphones and it worked nicely..hahas..should've just tried with headphones from the start..i was doing testing on the media players without earphones hahas..thanks all for the help
Resco Radio has an option to turn of the screen and the call buttons and leave the sound on.
`unfortunately it´s not free `
When You plug in headset this work!

The Music of my HTC touch HD stop by itself....

Hello,
I got a problem, I don't know why but the music of my htc touch hd stop by itself after 30 ~ 40 sec....
It just stop ....
Does anyone know why ?
thank you very much.
Ronio
Same for me
I have the same problem. My Touch HD also stops about after the same amount of time. I think its when the phone "shuts off" goes into hibernation mode which it does after 30-60 secs.
But sometimes when i press the homekey and lock the screen it doesnt do it. But if i lock the screen right after i pressed play in coreplayer it happends. And the only way to start it again is to unlock the screen. Anyone know why??
I took another MP3 player and abandonned TF3D music player.
It work well with others...
Hi, i used to have the same problem.
I go to the home screen, hold 'end call' to lock the device then the power button.
I dont know if it will solve it but it works for me all the time.

What do you mean? My headset is in the audio out jack. WHen i want to listen to music i put my headphones in, and start coreplayer and the music. Then i press the off button to lock the device with pocketshield. But then the music stops when it goes to sleep
I've got the same problem, sound cuts out after minute or so. Doesn't matter which player I use.
Anyone found a solution, it's driving me nuts.
The solution :
New Hard SPL
Flashing your ROM with somes there...
New Rom Radio

Thanks for the response. What does New Hard SPL mean?
Same issue here, only when no headphones are connected though.
I am running latest HSPL and Rimi ROM 6.5 (latest). I also flashed a new radio (which works great BTW).
If I go to the default media player, play some music (or choose play all on home screen for that matter) and press the top off key to lock device then music stops straight away.
When I unlock the device I have to press play again to continue playing music.
The only way I have to lock the device and have music playing is go to program and choose lock (software lock then).
I tried going back to home screen before pressing the lock button, same thing.
Is this normal behaviour as in it should only allow music playing and screen lock when headphones are in?

Stand by while playing music?

Anyone know how to put the phone in standby mode while playing music? Specifically, i want the phone to play music but with screen off.
Generally, music plays just fine with the screen off. What player are you using? If you're using Windows Media, then the player should take care that, when you press the power button, the device doesn't actually go to standby but rather just turns its screen off.
You might also have problems with locking software. For example, the screen/key lock on my X1 forces it to go to standby and thus stops playing music. But if I don't lock, it doesn't go to standby (but just turns the screen off) and the music keeps playing.
A short press on the main power button will turn off the screen whilst music continues
also u have a better chance of music not turning off if ur listening to it thru the jack
zizoty...i know what you mean, i had that same problem, very often the music would stop when the screen is turned off, i guess this is a bug within the system, i never experienced this problem since i updated the firmware to the R3A
yep same problem... but is about the rom... I hope they can fix it in da next realease
I'm using R3A and listening to music with the screen off all the time. Never had a sudden music stop or w/e.
with some players one have to enable "toggle screen" to a key and use that
Power Button = Screen Off is only true when Headphones are plugged in. To listen through the speaker with screen off, assign a key to the screen off function (Check Options to do this). I suggest "Long press Up" or "Long Press Down".
Im runnig R3A firmware right now and using WMP, TCPMP. You can turn off the screen if you're using headphone, but when you're playing through the loudspeaker, you cant turn off the screen. The screen just get dimmer after a few minutes of playing but it never completely off.

Try S2P player. It's free and can play music through the speaker when the screen is off.
Edit: Pocket Player works that way as well.
I had firmware R1A and it had this feature. It was removed in the R2A NAM rom.
YOUR BEST BET IS TO UPDATE YOUR ROM TO R2A. It's easy just go to sony ericssons website, and look up Xperia, and click update.

lock phone without stopping music

This may sound stupid, but I want to lock the phone so I don't pump the keys in my pocket, doesn't matter which player I use (core, tcpmp, wmp, htc sense) whenever I lock the phone (press hangup so the screen goes black) the music stops cause the media player shuts down
is there anyway to make a program immune from being shut down by the lock function, because it's really annoying... sorry if this is answered somewhere else, I searched and couldn't find what I was looking for.
SOmething I've also noticed is that whilst it is locked I can still adjust the volume (energy rom mar11 2010 cookie monster)
and pressing the hang up key whilst its locked shuts off the music also...
I have a $20 sansa mp3 player that kicks the hd2's arse for music play back... which is really disappointing, I mean I know its not really a dedicated mp3 player,
but its kind of sad that my $1000 smart phone can't play a few mp3's without shuddering to a hault
The very same microsdhc 16gb class 2 card shifted from my hd2 to my sansa c250v2 running rockbox so its the exact same mp3 and wma files that play perfectly on the sansa that are buggering up on the hd2
I have disabled power management on my sd card as a suggestion from another thread as well.

With normal setup this cant be. At least the player in sense tab plays continuosly even when u turn of the screen.
If you cannot find a solution i could know a workaround. Just use the Nitrogen Player. It has a special button for turning the screen off while the music keeps playing.
But i just tried it in my hd2. The music also keeps playing with my windows media player.
So it is a bit strange it stops in every player on your device
And to compare your low budget mp3 player with the hd2 is kinda weird.
The sound quality through the headset is great and full of bass AND fully customizable.
Maybe you tweaked your device way too much as there seems to be more than one prob in there (changing volume while locked, ...)

this looked very promising, installed, soft reset, 3 times, no luck, song still stops, although I did note that it stopped and started a few times and then just gave up, then when I went back into the player after unlocking, there was no sound still but the time for the song was still ticking along.
this happens on 2 other hd2's at my work, and my old hd2 before I returned it for other warranty issues, both with the stock telstra rom and with other cooked roms, exact same problem of the music disappearing when locked..
update S2U2 and S2P work AWESOME and dont wipe out the sound... its kinda uggo and I lose a lot of functionality of the old unlock slider, but now I have flawless music playback, so.... thats good... a shame I can't have both
of course.... just to make a liar out of me.... coreplayer now runs while the phone is locked....um so... something I did either the reg tweak or installing and then removing s2u2 or installing s2p has fixed this issue... coreplayer now plays, whilst the phone is locked with the regular htc sense lock screen after pressing hang up....
so YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
I hit the windows key and then the lock link at the bottom. Takes a minute for the screen to turn off that way, but better than leaving it on the whole time.
If you press the hangup button to lock it, the phone goes into standby and all apps are suspended.
You really have a problem with your ROM, some program you use or whatever. Normally the Sense music player, WMP, S2P, PocketPlayer, Kinoma,... all continue to play when hitting the power key. Coreplayer and TCPCM don't, and that gets fixed by the cab I linked above.
I can do that with the FM radio , coreplayer and windows media player .
I just lock the phone , but the music keeps playing , even for more than 10 hours ( When I sleep , I keep the headsets on and the music on , and lock the phone put in the case and in the drawer and still can listen to music. )
Edit : Also the sense music works

doesn't this also disable "cpu sleep" everytime youpress power button making the device drain a lot of battery even during standby? I may be wrong, but that's how I understand the registry setting in that cab

I can lock my screen by the hang up button? And no, my music does not stop. On stock WWE -Rom. But, I had this issue on my Blackstone

You've read my threads enough to know it's the first thing I checked, and I'd have complained instead of saying thanks if I had seen an issue with that
From what I understand it will prevent standby as long as the WAV1 interface is in use (i.e sound is playing).
I always lock my device using the Hang Up button .. does this effect anything ?
Nope, it's normal. But with Coreplayer if you do that without the hack above it stops playing music.

d'oh, it could be useful whenever I want to lock on mortplayer, if I press power button it will also stop playback. Let's try that.
EDIT: So far so good, testing mA suction while playing on standby and while on "normal" standby.
EDIT2: So far NOT so good, locking with power button on mortplaying in playback, once stopped playback, and just now locked the whole phone on the lock screen. Uninstalling
yeah so that cab didn't help core player on my hd2 using the mar11 energy rom and 2.08 radio
but just playing musik with the s2p player, when you hit the hangup key it doesnt actually lock the phone traditionally, it kind of over rides the hangup keys function and just does a screen blank out controlled within s2p, which isn't too bad because the music keeps playing, but yeah, I definitely can't get coreplayer to stay playing with or without this cab installed.
Just a shame s2p doesnt have an equaliser or bass control or any advanced audio functions.

way to go, moron, your little registry crack somehow made all the speakerphone sounds (ringtones, music, notifications) come out of my EARPIECE!
check your crap .cabs before you post them,, thinking you kno what you're doing.
and if this wasn't your creation, pass the massage on to the maker, sorry. =] but seriously guys, be smart. check your registry edits a few times over before telling other people to do it, as a result to someone's stupidity, i now have to reflash the rom, because i have no clue what registry that little POS .cab file edited. D:
god, some people, i swear.
i had the same issue and posted in the energy rom thread. A great guy there advised to disable the cookie lock screen and revert to the normal one. That resolved my issue so i am sure it will do likewise for you.
