Wired remote W100 + HTC audio manager

[lfshiu]

Hi,

I've got a problem with my wired remote (w100) in combination with HTC audio manager. When I want to skip a song using the wired remote it unlocks my phone, resulting in pressing several buttons. When I use the same remote with HTC audio manager with the Kaiser (using DSC 1.5 rom) this problem never occures and the phone keeps locked. Could someone please help me with this problem?

I have the same problem. Whenever I use my wired remote I have to press the power button on my phone to turn of the screen. S2U2 won't even stay above the audio manager. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a HTC P3600 (Trinity) with WM5, and have just bought the W100 wired remote. I use PointUI Home ( http://www.pointui.com/Home.aspx ) which has a built-in screen lock.

But when I used the remote (play/pause, skip song and so on) together with Windows Media Player it would make WMP come into the foreground and stay there, so that the buttons could be pressed. I tried to install S2U2, but experienced the same problem.

Then I found out, that if I use the default device lock in WM5, I can still use the remote without bringing WMP into the foreground.

So I installed Matt Armstrong's DeviceLock ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=261277 ). It is a small utility that, when executed, puts on the default WM5 device lock. I assigned DeviceLock to a hardware button and ... voila!

Now I can start a song in WMP, activate the default WM5 device lock by pressing the hardware button to which I assigned DeviceLock, and use the remote. It will still bring WMP into the foreground BUT the default WM5 device lock must be unlocked before I can press any buttons on the screen.

I hope this helps you.

PS: I also assigned the DeviceLock to the lock icon in PointUI Home so I can start it from here. Let me know if you need help to do this.

You should only install S2U2 and enable option "Lock when device wakes on" and set option "Power off in" to 5 sec. All functionality of hands free RC W100 preserved! Screen of your PDA will be turned off and buttons will be locked.
