I've searched all over but im using Stock Verizon TP2 ROM, and when i play music through the phones speakers using Windows Media Player or the Touch Flo 3d music player, and C-ApiSRO - Sirius/XM Satellite Radio player, the music stops once i hit the button at the top to turn the screen off
is there anyway to keep the music playing? i know when i connect my bluetooth headset to listen to music it keeps playing when i hit the power button but is there a way to do this when listening to music through the phones speakers? My TP1 was able to do this but not the tp2 for some reason.
I've tried the Slide 2 Shutdown App which has the option for slide to turn the screen off which doesnt work, I tried a cab called SHK_Customs_Keep_Music_Playing_Registry_Fix.cab which still didnt work, and the C Apisro has a option to turn the screen off but the music still stops after like 45 seconds with the screen off. I cant figure out why the music wont keep playing. Any help out there with a fix or suggestion?
this might help abit

im trying to avoid s2u because it kills the battery on the phone
yep im not using s2u2 as i didnt like it, but in that thread someone suggested Nitrogen player, this allows you to play mp3s and kill the screen
there is an app out there called goff display where you hold the phone upside down and the screen shuts off i used it on my diamond when i had the same problem it works like a charm i will try to track down the .cab
Not sure which thread it was in or who put it together but I grabbed this the other day and works for me.
EDIT: Nevermind, see that it didn't work for the OP. Sorry.
Ask sergio76, in his two themes that he made that are in this forum he was able to keep the music playing with the screen off. He should be able to help you out.
i've found my solution with this app
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4951174&postcount=18
It worked!!!
I was having the problem that i was not able to listen to music on speaker with the screen off, but now thanks to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4951174&postcount=18
YES! sure u have to run the little app but w/e it does the job !
Both psshutxp & shk_customs_keep_musis_playing_registry_fix worked for me but for only 10 minutes! Then windows media player would stop.
Why doesn't windows media player have the option "do not suspend power while playing"? It did with my old HTC 6800 but not my touch pro 2.
Anyone else have any suggestions? Thanks.
wish sumthing out there would do this? i like to listen to my music through my fone at work when im doing shipment, but having the screen on makes it hot and wastes battery fast, so any solutions yet?

Did you try both the cab in post #6 and the app in post #8? The cab worked for me, and still does, never had any issue after I first ran it. Some people who haven't gotten anywhere with the cab, have resolved the issue with that app..
Install TurnOffTheLight.cab found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=569473
I put it on my home screens quick links and it enables turning off the screen while playing music thru the phones onboard speaker.

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.

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.
Hey guys,
If I put off my screen while a song is on the music stops too, and I think it's kind of a battery waste to let the screen on while listening to music.
Is there any way the music can keep playing while you have put off your screen with the button on top of the device?
Thanks a ton.
antrak
You can let the device turn off the screen itself.. Happens after 1 minute depending on which settings you have.. Works for me!
But i agree, irritating problem, guess there will be a fix for this!

You are not only turning off the screen but also putting the device to standby, use one multimedia player like Coreplayer or MortPlayer, both can
turn of the screen while keeping the device on.
This happened to me - I think it only happens in WM itself - the TF3D interface is fine to click the screen off - it carries on uninterrupted
Use a Headset than you can turn off the screen but the phone keeps on playing.
I just tried it and it DOES only affect WMedia itself - the TF3D music interface is fine - I haven't tried it with WMedia AND wired phones though - as has been said that may be a potential solution - I don't know because I always use BT headphones on mine
Frankly I've been using the TF3D interface far more recently, as it's MUCH easier than WMedia to create playlists on (I f..king HATE windows media TBH)
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.

Disable sleep mode...or put your headset in audio out jack, so you can turn your screen off

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?
1.when I play a track in manilas music player,it stops after 10secs and you will never be able to work with music player again.
2.And when I use Windows Media Player it stops when screen lock activates after a while when handsfree is pluged in (of course it happens after making a call)
I made this threaed because I couldn't find any solution...
please help me!

There's a video on youtube where a guy is having the same problem, ill look it up for ya.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYSv7zqd744
and im fairly sure the same guy started a threadon here too, and also found a solution. start reading back through the threads, it's probably back to about page 5 or so by now.
IIRC, you go to hklm/software/htc/audiomanager and change the suspend key to 0
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
What the ...!
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.
