Play audio w/ screen off

[shapiror06]

Saw the post before, couldnt relocate it.

How do I make it so when using WMP or HTC Audio Manager, when I press the power button the audio keep playing?

Here's what I'm trying to do.
I have the Jabra BT8010 (which I love btw) and I would like to use my phone at the gym to listen to music. The blue blinking Bluetooth indicator remains flashing when I press the power button to shut off the screen, so I know my headset is still joined, but the music stops playing. When I press the power button to turn the screen back on, the music resumes.

dont press the off button
asign a button to toggle screen it will turn off the screen
it's the only thing which can be turned off while the pda
is still on enough to play music

I'm using dcd rom 2.1.0 and audio manager 1.02 build 614.712

My audio continues to play after pressing the power button.

Can you do me a favor? Use whatever registry editor you like, navigate to [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\ ScreenOff]

There are 4 values in there:
blk1:
Default
Flags
upt1:

Can you tell me what the value is set to for each of the 4 items?

TIA! -Randy

Try putting the audio manager to REPEAT. This works for me...with repeat off the music stops when I power down the screen, but with repeat on the music continues right on through.

Here you go

default = 0
bkl1 = 4
flags = 1048576
upt1 = 1

[shapiror06]

Here you go

default = 0
bkl1 = 4
flags = 1048576
upt1 = 1

Okay... next step in the sequence lol.

How about the values in [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\ Unattended]
blk:
Default
Flags
upt:
wav1:

That should be the last thing I need, I promise :D

[rtownsend]

default = 0
bkl1 = 4
flags = 4194304
gpd0 = 4
upt1 = 1
wav1 = 4

[shapiror06]

default = 0
bkl1 = 4
flags = 4194304
gpd0 = 4
upt1 = 1
wav1 = 4

whelp... mine doesn't have the gpd0 value, and my wav1 is set to 0 like colonel said to do. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. there doesn't seem to be a pattern to it. it has a mind of it's own. I've decided that I'm just gonna wait for the new ROM to be released by Verizon before I worry about problems that would effect my everyday usage of the phone. Thanks for the help though.

HTC Audio Manager has always worked for me with power button off, and here is the fix for WMP as found on ppcgeeks

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Unattended]
"WAV1:"=dword:00000000

[shapiror06]

Okay, I need a ppc genius to explain this one to me! This is very weird. I've been doing some troubleshooting here...

If I do a soft reset, music will NOT play after pressing the power button, even with the above mentioned reg fix.

However, if I connect and disconnect the phone from my computer and Activesync starts, and is closed (completely closed on the phone through QMenu) music WILL play after pressing the power button.

It also plays if I manually open ActiveSync on the phone, and then close it. It does NOT work while ActiveSync is running for the first time after a soft reset, but if I open ActiveSync any number of times after it's been opened and closed once, music DOES play after pressing the power button.

Weird... This is killing me, I need an explanation!!!

(PS - I hope this thread is getting considerable attention and views. I cannot be the only one with this problem lol)

I am on the 3.16 leak but even with 2.17 I was able to play music with screen off. With or without S2U2 using the power settings. The screen sleeps the music goes on. I can turn it on again change songs and then hit the power button and the screen goes back to sleep music still playing.

[shapiror06]

This seems to be the general consensus, but not in my case, and I'm sure a few others.

Like I said, after a soft reset I can only get it to work properly with what I described about ActiveSync. Weird, can't figure it out...

I was having this exact same issue. I changed the wav1 value to 0 it worked right away. Didn't even need to soft reset.

Okay guys after hours and hours of searching and messing with my registry I found a SOLUTION for HTC Audio Manager to stay on after pressing the power button to turn off the screen/suspend........

It is sooooo simple I'm just shaking my head, no more using psshutxp or other screen toggles.

It keeps playing...yayyyyy

First open Reg editor and go to HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager\Config

Now create a new "DWord value" name it DisableSuspend and give it a value of 1

(You can also change the value of "enter suspend" to 0 but with my new key it should change it on reboot anyways)

This was done on a Sprint Touch
