headphone functionality changed automatically!!!

pratikt — Sat, 01 Sep 2012 08:31:48 GMT

Hi the headset I got with xperia p used to change songs, pause and play them, pickup and disconnect calls but now I dont know why they just adjust the media and call volumes. Does anyone know how to change this setting????

hey i guess u dnt need to worry much abt this problem !! i mean something might have messed up ur settings which control the earphone !! but dnt worry there are a whole lot of apps available which can resolve urt problem !! many apps are out there in the market which do the same thing and u can download any of those !! howevwer i would recommend the JAYS Headset control as i somewhere in a forum read another xperia p user using it and he loved it a lot !! the link to it is down under

plz mark as correct if u find my post useful

I knew the app but was wondering how come it changed automatically and from where can I change it again.

JAYS Headset Control:

- Apps used to control headset clicks will conflict with ICS's lockscreen music widget due to Android's architecture

- The app is incompatible with Android 4.1+ (Jelly Bean) due to Google forcing Voice Search to interfere with headset clicks

I installed the app still the headphone just increases the volumes

you can do a Settings reset and see if that does it, but it seems that it might be another app acting up

Will anyone from sony support put a light on this issue ??

Re: headphone functionality changed automatically!!!

@pratikt check whether ur earphones can be used normally in other xperia 2012 phones if possible !! this will prove if something is wrong with the earphone controls itself !! if everthing works fine then itz a bug with ur sxp !! basically moderators out here look for problems which many users are facing rather than a single indvidual !! so i gues nothing much can be done by them either !! also check similar apps to jays control to chk if any restore ur functionality !! hav u tried repairing the phone ?? !! last step would be to go to the service centre at your place !! hopee u find my post useful !!

Hi ,

I tried one thing today and it worked dont know how . I kept the headphone connected to the device and restarted the phone . Now I can change songs , pickup calls and also Jays controller now works fine . I also removed some of the unwanted livewallpapers I had downloaded from the Market . I think some app was oveeriding the usual function . Now everything is great . Thanks for taking into consideration my issue even though no body else was facing it . Thanks Sony support .

What headphones are you guys talking about, the standard earphones provided with the device ?? or some other headset ?? and the standard one can change the tracks ??

Ok, thanks for the quick response, can it change tracks if so please tell me how to do that, cause im only using them to pause and play dunno how to jump tracks

Re: headphone functionality changed automatically!!!

pratikt — Wed, 05 Sep 2012 10:15:55 GMT

double click the button on the headphone . Also you can dowload Jays headse controller , link mentioned in earlier comments for more functions like - go to previous track , increase/decrease volume .

Please mark this helpful or correct if u find this solution helpful .
