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 am just using the default Samsung music app, so maybe a simple player switch will suffice...
I am coming from a iPhone 5. One thing the iPhone does very well is play music. There are a copy of issues with my S4 in this regard that are driving me crazy, I am hoping you guys can help me resolve them:
1. Volume rocker on headphones does not control music volume. As far as I can tell the volume rocker just doesnt do anything at all. Is there a way to make this control music / voice levels? Very annoying having to fish for the phone to actually move the volume rocker.
2. Previous doesnt work. On the iPhone you can triple click the button on the headset to either restart the current song or go back to the previous song that was playing before. I used this quite often as i sometimes like to Binge on a particular soundtrack. This does not seem to work currently, triple pressing the button simply goes to the next song (double tap) and then pauses (single tap).
Loving the S4 so far, I definitely hope the above is something that is possible to fix though. Thanks a lot guys!
Try google play music? The volume thing worked on my s3 however I've yet to test ion s4... Also i use poweramp
sgh-i747(d2att)(sgs3) on latest cm10.1 or ultimatum
my headphones work on the s4 so far... volume and pause/skip tracks also works. single tap button to pause, double tap to skip etc. maybe u got a faulty headset?
Yeah sounds like a faulty headset...mine works

Or push it further in maybe? It seems to be hard at first to press in the headphone all the way... loosen up over time
Questions go in Q&A

Hey all,
I got another question that might be interesting to ask.
So today i got my denon urban raver ah-d401 which has some controlls to pause play answer calls, change volume and all that but it doesnt work.
Only thing that works is the "menu" button to pause and play music. is it possible to make tha volume controlles work ? Its actually made for iDevices but there must be a solution for this?
Hey guys!
My media volume rocker goes down sometimes... By itself. I keep pressing the volume+ on the phone or headset and it doesnt work. I have to unlock the phone and then vol+. But after a couple of seconds it goes down again. Its a cat/mouse game. It happen at random.
I have Stock 4.3 no root (fu**** Knox)
Is it hardware or software?
I searched the forum about my problem and theres a lot of threads (but not on the S4 sub) about it but without any help and/or explanation.
Thx guys!
Happen with and without earphone?
I think only with headset. Because I don't use media on speakers

Hello,
I would really like to use a Nougat rom on a daily basis, but this is impossible for me because of a thing that may sound really simple - the headphones control button doesn't work on any custom rom that is not stock based(so any AOSP etc.). This is essential for me as I am cycling A LOT and I need this stupid button to receive/end calls and play/pause music.
The only way I can make it work on custom roms is by installing Xposed Additions - but it only works up to Android 6.0.
Does anyone have a solution for this problem? Your help will be greatly appreciated!

I have a mi headphones pro and they are working absolutely well. The volume up and low buttons work while the middle button on pressing once plays/pauses songs, double pressing plays next song and triple pressing players previous song.
I am on LOS.
