G1 Music Player Motion Activated?

---

OK, I'm guessing its not just me, but when my G1 is in my pocket, and I have the headphones connected(this only happens with the headphones in), it will randomly jump to different tracks, pause, stop, and pretty much be useless. I didn't have a clue my G1 could even do this, so how do I stop it? I genuinely had no idea what was happening until I started flicking my phone and realised it was controlled by the a motion sensor. It makes my music player pretty much useless though!

Thanks.

I am having the same problem. first Tmo rep replaced the phone thinking that the usb connection was compromised, but the same thing is happening with the replacement phone. tried several pair of headphones, and I have two adapters that both do it. Its the adapter. the wires must be cheap... its under HTC warranty, so the tmo rep is sending me another.

Yeah is a problem with your headphones if you got the phone before tmo started to include the adapters or the adapter if you just recently bought th ephone. I had it happen with the original headset I had and an adapter that i was using for a while. havent' had any trouble wth the new adapter that i have. My brother bought the phone and doesn't use the wired headset so he gave me his new headphones and now it works great.

I have the same problem both with my headphones and when using the 3 in 1 connector in my car, really frustrating, no issues with Tune Wiki but can't use that as the player will just randomly start anyway, tried 2 hard resets. Phone didn't do this for the 1st month or so, I don't see how it can be the connector.

Does it work?

I am new to this phone, however i tried turning the phone in all direction, plus shaking it, my music player would not change song. May i know is there a option to activate the motion sensor?

no. not untill someone develops an app that can handle using the motion sensor to change track, which i'm sure is very possible. It is not an option in the standard player, or any player available atm. (as far as i know)
