Hi,

Does anyone know how and if I can control the music player with the headphones control?
I my old galaxy S3 I could go to next track by double clicking the button in the headphones controls, for some reason it does not work in the S5...

any help?

Thanks.

Re: Controlling mp3 player with the headphones control on Galaxy S5

Welcome to Android Central! Are these headphones that came with your S5, or ones you bought yourself? If you got them yourself, are they specifically compatible with Samsung devices? If they were designed for iPhones, the controls probably won't work, since iPhone headphone jacks are configured differently.
