About the volume keys as someone suggested to make them skip track.. So, press = +- volume and hold = next/prev track, how about it?
Nice job so far!
it can be even simplier: volume rocker is used for track skipping only when the phone is locked and it's working as it is when the phone is in normal unlocked mode. So for example, you can skip tracks in your pocket whithout even pulling out n900 and if you want to change the volume you can open the keyboard to unlock it (or lock switch) and then use volume keys for their regular use.

Adjusting volume when device is locked is *much* more appreciated.

Erm, that could and should be an option me thinks. I don't see why we could not have the option to configure how those buttons function. I never hold those buttons when I adjust volume so could use a feature like this. Besides, buttons are made for abusing

When locked, fully pressing the camera button in will pause/play the track; the volume keys will function as normal but if you keep the camera button half-pressed in, the volume keys will now go to the previous/next track.

qwerty's last app he wrote for the N900 was an app to control volume & skipping tracks of the media player when the screen was locked, & as I recall the button functionality was high-function, well thought-out, & very straightforward. Maybe something like rocker switch for volume, & camera button to skip to next track: I can't remember the name of the app.
Edit: Here it is, his last post: Extended Locked Media Player Control. Quite a loss that he left, but understandable how he got so p**** off by Nokia.

I was comparing the two versions with top on separate N900's.
I have just been testing different versions and a reboot has fixed it. Sorry , this looks like it may have been my device, as updating the other N900 didn't cause this problem.
Thanks again.
