I want to control the Media Player on my Nexus One from my PC. This is exactly the opposite of what is done by GMote. This will let me keep my Nexus One connected with speakers from my PC and still play songs on it. Searched a while in Google and XDA, but couldn't find one.

Im looking for something along the same lines but to remote control an android tablet.
I am looking for one too.

Purchased Phantom music control but it just allows you to control music from the lock screen, it didn't work on my GS2 and was very laggy
Looking for something like this as well. We have speakers built into our ceiling in our house and use my evo to play music all the time, being able to control the evo from far away w/ a laptop or another android phone would be awesome.
I'm looking for something like this too, any ideas?
some digging here, but i'm also looking for something like this... 2 years later, maybe someone find out something!

I have searched and found all kinds of conflicting information.
What is the story with the headset buttons and the atrix?
I have a headset that worked perfectly with my nexus one even with the stock player. With the atrix the phone takes over and the buttons only work to initiate a voice command.
Some third party apps such as winamp can get the play/pause to work.
So how do you get full music control on the atrix? If the answer is a new headset then why did mine work perfectly on the nexus one.
For full music control (not to mention audio quality) it would be best to use Stereo BT headphones, not a headset. http://goo.gl/ZiTpN
Hopefully there is a better way than BT. I really don't want to charge my headset.
worst part is that you can not received call with button on headsets.
as for music control...
do a market search for 'Headset Button Controller'
I know the button worked on my Atrix using the headphones that came with my Captivate for skipping songs and pausing. I don't know if I ever used it to recieve a call though.
I use Motorola SD9 HD's and all buttons on headset work. Auto switch for calls.
May have BT headset model wrong cos I'm in bar getting drunk!

Just downloaded the app. Looks great, hope it can do half of what it looks like. Looking forward to getting home and getting my headset out of my gym bag.
Thanks!!
I like my S9s though I use my T1 blue ant BT to stream netcasts/music and haven't wore them in a while. Running with my dog, at work, etc, I rather have an ear open and beautiful part is @ work no one knows I'm listing to the 404 or Android guys netcast ^_^ I'm just productive and waiting for a call.

vingo n google voice search may interfere with the app. freeze/uninstall them if not using.
moto seems to have made the long press of button associate with voice search/commands..
Hi,
Im in desperate need of some sort of app that allows my to control the music on my galaxy tab via my phone (nexus S) via Bluetooth. I listen to all my music on my tab which is packed away in my bag when travelling and rather than having to take the tab out each time to change track, does any one know of a App which i can use to skip pause and select music via my phones Bluetooth?!
I'm sure im not the only one who would benefit from this app
Thanks in advance!
I take it there is no such thing
Maybe something like this?

“KENWOOD Music Control” is free app for Music control. I like this app as it works great with my Kenwood head unit via Bluetooth.
Question for you guys .... I use Google Music but have noticed on my RAZR that often the bluetooth music control (like from my car stereo) only work when Google Music is in the foreground on my phone. It seems to be OK if it was in the foreground and I switch back to Navigation -- I can still control it. But if I start playback from my launcher using iSyncr widget things often get all screwed up and I can only get things right by going directly into Google Music... otherwise the controls on my car do nothing.
Anyone else notice this?
(Same thing happens when I stream A2DP to my laptop ...)
Another issue is I can't use the button on iPhone headphones with my RAZR. I had no issues with my Droid X but it won't answer/end calls nor control music playback. Is this normal as well?
could it be the widget?

Anything is possible -- although I've been using iSyncr since I first got Android and have never had similar issues.
I've been listening to music all day at work via Bluetooth and it's been working -- and that's without having the player in the foreground. So I don't know ... I wonder if it's the stock Motorola player stealing focus? I have never used it but it always seems to be running.
Also any idea on why the headset button doesn't work at all? Not even for call handling.

unless you are using the settings on the stock music player equalizer, I don't see a reason to not use task manager to end it, that may be what's causing a conflict. and I am unfamiliar with your headphones, I rarely use them. but when it do I have some nice sennheiser earbuds my wife got me. normally I use a jawbone jambox (bluetooth) at home and a wired (dynex) logitech speaker at work.

With the upgrade to ICS I am no longer able to make the button on my wired headset pause/unpause music. I've tried freezing the Voice Commands app using Titanium, I've tried using the Jays Headset Control app, I've tried other music playing apps like Rocketplayer. I can always make the button pause music successfully while the screen is on, but if the screen is off it simply doesn't work. My primary music player is the standard "Play Music" app that comes with ICS.
Are others having this problem? Have you found a way around it?
I am having the same issue too, once the screen locks I cant pause, rewind, or fast foward
I'm having the exact same issue using DoggCatcher. I have a brand new set of phillips headphones for android that worked great before the update. If anyone can figure this out, it would be great.
Try Poweramp, it has a setting that gives Poweramp a higher priority for this case (Haven't tested it with ICS yet, but on GB this worked).
Other than that, it's a nice and beautiful music player btw.
Thanks for the poweramp suggestion. I gave it a try this morning but it behaves exactly the same as the other music apps. Headset controls work fine when the screen is on but don't work at all when the screen is off. I suppose it's good to hear that others are having problems too, which means it's not a problem with just my phone. I'd love to hear a solution!

Tryied using some custom lockescreen? (ex. widget loacker etc)

Same problem here after upgrading to ICS. Headset controls work perfectly with the screen on but don't work at all with the screen off. I have tried using JAYS Headset Control, Headset Button Controller, Headset Droid, and the built-in headset control functions of Winamp and Poweramp all to no avail. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the lock screen music controls disappear after installing headset control apps due to some sort of conflict between the app and the Android system.
Anyone find a solution to this? Your ugly red head step child the Droid Bionic seems to have the same problem. So I was hoping there'd be some app or setting to flick to make the controls work when the screen is off.
Also eager to find the best solution on Android, it is pretty easy on iOS!!!
As a music fan, this feature means a lot for us. But seems Android doesn't like music as iOS.
For me, I have upgraded to JB 4.1 and my current solution is create a smart action like launch Google Play Music when plug in headset. The control works for pause and play when screen is off. Actually it also works for skipping by double clicking very quickly, but it seems a little bit hard to achieve, or you can say it doesn't work. But it DOES work sometimes. Good luck!

This doesn't work for me. I think i could use the headset controlls before installing headset controller.

ive been using poweramp, and this may just be my choice in headphones, but ive never gotten those buttons to work on CM10...again this may just be me, but ive never gotten headphone buttons to work on my RAZR
Install Headset button controller, tap on the Advanced label, scroll until you find the 'Advanced settins' entry (it's the last on the list), check 'Prevent sleep mode' option. It works fine, but it's a shame we have to pay for an app in order to fix a os's bug.
For me the problem was MotoCast. After I disabled in the settings everything worked great.
Dear all,
I recently switched to the HTC One GE, from an iPhone 4, and I am having trouble dealing with the inline remote controls. In the stock android OS, by default 1-click pauses/plays music and 2-click fast-forwards. Three clicks do nothing but I really like the possibility to use that to rewind my music. Even if I download a third-party inline remote app (e.g. JAYS headset control) to do that, I still cannot get this to work, i.e. although the app is set as I want it, it doesn't work.
On a slightly unrelated topic, why can I not use 2 clicks to fast-forward when playing music from Pandora but 1-click can pause/play a song no problem?
Thanks!
Nicola
If you are using a set of headphones made to work on the iPhone then it will never work right and you will need a different set of headphones
Wayne Tech Nexus
I'm using the earphones that came with my HTC one so they should work.
And the 1- and 2-click options work just fine. I just can't get 3-click one to be set for rewinding music.
