An idea for 4.9

[Coolsaber57]

Sweet. I don't have a head set that does that or I don't think. Guess I'll have to try it tomorrow.

There is a setting to turn off the screen off music controls. As for wanting a button to turn off the ability to turn it on while the screen is off. That could be a real usable option. I have had it come on in my pocket by accident before. Lucky for me I stay out of place where I can't be a person.

Heh, not really sure what you were trying to say there with that last sentence, but yeah I think you got the idea.

It is a nice feature to have as I was at school today conversating with colleagues when I accidentally triggered my music. But in situations like that when I'm at school, I can't afford to have that distract the class so I turn off the feature from Chevy's tools.

Agreed, I didn't follow that either

I mean the only place I go where my phone going off at full volume with some odd lyric about getting it on, would be a problem would be to an occupational nice restaurant. Other than that I never have to worry about my phone going off. It's simply annoying, but I thought I would shorten it a bit.

I'm a person, I make mistakes, so you will have that with or without the help of my phone.

4.8 also includes BT initiated voice dialing. I dont know of another ROM that does that.

Ok, what is that?

You can use a bluetooth headset that supports bluetooth voice dialing to initiate a phone call from the bluetooth headset. In other words you press or hold a button on your headset and it triggers the phone to ask you to "speak now" as in the name or number of the person you want to call without ever physically making contact with your phone.

i think this feature is already on it.

yeah..i know right. I mean..4.8 was released 4 days ago. And it already has the toggle on/off screen off media keys using a long press of the camera button. lol This was a feature I requested (im sure others have too)...besides even in 4.7 you can disable this feature using chevy tools.

Not enough people are concerned with quickboot. We hardly ever power our phones down.


And all of these topics were covered with 4.8. A little reading wouldve revealed this. lol

Just to clarify a couple things... BT voice dialing was not added to this ROM, it has been a feature of Froyo since day one. The reference to "BT control" in 4.8 was referring to the fact that in 4.7, the new media key feature actually broke the existing bluetooth music control functionality (A2DP) in some ways, and now that is all fixed in 4.8. This is unrelated to the hands-free BT profile, and unrelated to the BT voice dialing feature.

Woops, didn't see this thread, it wasn't on my front page.

Sorry about that.

This thread is now about music controls: Go!

[Larry_ThaGr81]

That's not big deal reposting a thread that already exist, I've done it myself. You handled it properly by editing your OP, but hopefully you didn't change any of the original content because our responses where based on that. But adding more info to the OP is cool.

Maybe an option to enable/disable the ability to toggle music controls on/off? My phone randomly went off in church (quite embarrassing) and I'd like the option to disable that feature. To clarify, I would like to disable the long press of the camera button while the screen is off to enable the music controls.

I was probably not going to bring this up, but yeah, I have also accidentally long pressed the camera button too, and then if it gets tapped again, the music player unpauses... and the thing is, I almost always have my media volume at max, because I use headphones that have their own volume control... so the sound comes BLASTING out of my speaker...and half the time, it's Howard Stern...heh.

It would be nice to disable that quick toggle completely, because for those of us with bluetooth music headphones, we really never need it anyway as we have those controls right on the headphones themselves.
