Trying to work out which part of the comm stack this is all happening..

Oh and lastly, what package does the phone ui app belong to? I've poked around in the repository an managed to find the translations, but not the binary itself.

Maybe I should just go down and buy one, will make this much easier.
Only during a phone call. Haven't tried with a Skype call.

I've just tried with a Skype call, the signal is emitted.

This is due to Nokia's policy system through OHM. Not much information is available on it and Nokia's plugins implementing the policies are closed source (as usual). The phone app switches the policy to phone mode which allows the D-Bus signal of the button being pressed to be broadcast and, AFAIK, blocks other sources of sound etc. so it wouldn't make sense to have the "phone" policy always activated...

All that I know about it is, policy changes are broadcast over D-Bus; some of the plugins have configuration settings in /usr/share/policy and the plugins themselves are closed source so if they can't be configured to allow broadcasting of the ButtonPressed signal all the time, we're SOL. Personally, I'd like to know if there is a sysfs entry that is changed when the button is pressed so that we can do what thp did: monitor the file. This way, we avoid ****ing with the undocumented and closed-source components of the Policy system.

OK, /usr/lib/ohm/libohm_buttons.so is the library responsible, AFAIK.


Perhaps not: "stop ohmd" doesn't result in anything... Still, I'd like to know if it has a sysfs entry

Does this mean that THIS is fake advertising ?

I have AD-54 as in the above ebay ad. The headphone passthrough works, and it gets recognized as headset instead of headphones. None of the buttons work. I'd assume the mic in ad-54 works but I have not tested.

Don't suppose anyone has managed to get any information on or if the buttons on an AD-54 generate any useable signals on Maemo especially OS2008.

I've managed to trash my original headset which the button did work on, and am now going to use a spare AD-54. I can pause using headphoned, but unplugging is a bit clunky.

If anyone has any ideas, I am happy to test and have a play about. dbus-monitor, dbus-monitor --system, and dmesg all do not seem to register anything except plug/unplug events

i contacted the maker of headphoned directly via message. but dont have any respons yet about if its possible to make it fix.

I dont understand it really... How is it possible with this amount of wizkids surfing around here that no one took this oppertunity to make it work.

Whats wrong with all these guys... do they ever listen to the none programmers? This is a feature many people want. i know there must be something possible. because the call button works when being in a call!

Instead people make garbage like n900fly.... im getting anoyed! i know its possible someone please make it!

It's not developers fault that there's no documentation on how to activate the headset button. You really shouldn't use those kind of words for an opensource application voluntarily developed.

You want a certain feature? Find a developer willing to do it on their spare time. Most projects are the results of their interests. Can't? Then try paying them, I'm sure if you pay enough money you'll find someone willing to do it.

Just because people want it doesn't mean the developers on the forum is going work on it. For one thing the developers have a variety of skill, different code backgrounds, knowledge of the internal maemo OS, etc. Secondly, what they work on is from their own interest and often using their own time. Nokia isn't paying them. And I doubt they get alot of donations from people for the existing work they do. God knows I should probably get around to donating to the people I have on the Maepad list.
