I don't know if this is a new or old trick but i can use t68i menu while playng mp3 by hpm-10..
Here is how:
While playing move joystick *up* and then press *No* button for 3 seconds. Now *press* joystick.
Let me know if it works with your phone-players.
Bye,
Vinz

Maybe I'm doing it wrong, or it doesn't work on the t68m. When I push up, then hold no for 3 seconds it goes back to my main screen.
I really wish I could do other stuff when the phone is in MP3 mode.

That is a amazing tip. I am listening to mp3 right now while writing this using wap. Thanks a lot :-)

Anyone knows if it works with the new T68m software?
Posted by Zaji-D
Oh oh! I was really looking forward to the p800, but if what faca tells is true I must rethink what my next phone will be. You know, for me additional software is very important. So maybe I'll have to buy the 7650 even if I like the p800 much more. As I already said 3rd party SW is very important and if it is really true what faca says them there will be tons of applications on the 7650. But I still hope the SDK for the p800 will be free or at least very cheap. 3rd party SW will make or break the p800!!!

A great tip indeed! Since I read this post 3 weeks ago I use my hpm10 much more! Now if I only could switch to the menu while connected via gprs to for example esato! Is there a way without exiting from the current page? This is a big flaw for me that I can't eg surf, write a SMS and then continue surfing without re-establishing the connection to the desired page! Any tips?
Posted by kevin81
Zaji-D: Oh well. I think that you are plain wrong if you choose Nokia 7650 in front of P800. Don't forget that 7650 have 4MB of memory, NON-expandable. What additional software can you possibly find use of that is 4MB?
As I just mentioned, both Sony and Ericsson host some very talented programmers that with time, certainly will release lots of cool software for P800

I just bought a T68i (had a T68m and sold it to my friend) and still cannot get to the menu when playing music. If I press up it shows the volume control... then holding no for 3 seconds goes back to the standby screen. Pressing the joystick then brings up the menu, but the song isn't playing anymore.
What is going on?

Just got my HPM-10 and tried this tip. It works great still playing the Ericsson music file, and I am able to access the phone menu/games etc.
Great tip thanks.
Posted by Zaji-D
@kevin81: my p800 vs 7650 post was posted accidentally because the reply was still in the cache of my phone! Anyway, I think I will rather buy the p800. You may be right with software coming from SE, BUT you won't see any OS hacks or lots of games from them. The most things they will release will be serious apps. I also think there won't be a lot of freeware coming from SE...

Posted by ewap8
Thx a lot.
That was a lotta help.

Posted by Rui_Costa
This tip is great!
It works if u got an sw older then R5A... It doesn't work in R5A.
U can hold the joystick down, press no. Now U enter the standbyscreen. BUT the music stops playing. If U hold joystick up, press no. Same thing.
Posted by Mimzo
Now that's what I call a real tip!
Posted by floke
F*CK! It doesn't work with R5C001 either. Sorry for the hard words but I'm really disappointed. I wish I'd never done the update
/floke
EDIT: and not R5D007

neato, i can use this
Posted by Dwelling
Um, I would really benefit from this as well and I have a T300..... I'm wondering if it works on this since it is basically the same as a T68i...
If anyone knows, thanks!
Posted by malcs
Wow good tip!
Posted by craggsy
i cant get it to work on my t300 just goes back top the main screen and theres not music . do up press up , no (for3 seconds) then press the joystick or do u put the stars in where u have ??
Posted by DragonEye
Anybody know if there's a way to get this to work on R6a? It used to work on rde007 but not ont he new one??? I guess they removed the function.
Posted by JwY
it doesnt work on the newer firmwares.
Posted by mkt
@Zaji-D: As for now, SE only releases freewares. Have u ever seen free logos or ringtones from nokia-club? Have to pay 4 everything, while SE soft is free and lets u do same thing. Don't know offcourse how it's gonna look with phone appz, but noticed, that most C++ appz for 7650 are not freewares aswell. If sth is free, it's mostly simple java game, which are loads for p800 too already.

Cool it works on my t68i (r2e006)
Posted by xadox
TNX!!!! U'RE THE MAN!!!
Posted by hotrodbx
doesn't work with t300 R1d fw
Posted by mensur
It worked for me while using R2E006 but after upgrading software to R7A013 oficial upgrade by Sony Ericsson authorized service I lost this great functionality. Anybody knows is it totaly lose or are there any way to use it with new firmware?
Thank you.

I got my T68i with R5A and was really disappointed to find out that this trick didn't work. I recently upgraded to R8A015, and of course it still doesn't work.
However, I used my HPM-10 yesterday and suddenly I was in the phone menu while still listening to the music! The phone had left the 'handsfree' profile which it usually enters upon detecting the HPM-10 (T68i does, T65 doesn't?), and was not able to detect it at all.
I assume this was due to one or a few of the connector pins on the mp3 player not making contact with the phone. If so, it might be possible to find out which one(s) and block it. Although you would probably sacrifice the handsfree function and the ones in the mp3 player menu.
Does anybody know more about this?
Posted by anttheplant
How are you all listening to music??
Posted by MaThIbUs
By connecting the HPM-10 to a SE phone ;-)
Posted by tCO
to fredrik_c_h:
when pins 1 and 2 are for charger then pin 5 is portable handsfree sense
Posted by killabee
Ohhhh thats a wonderfull trick!!! thanx man. Did you know that when u have a 512 mb mmc in your hpm 10 when U switch a mp3 it takes a looooooooot of time!!! Its better to use 64 or 128 mb mmcs than w8 for 10 sec to change a mp3. Goddamit!!!
Posted by MaThIbUs
i always thought the hpm-10 couldn't handle mmc cards bigger than 128 mb :???:
Posted by killabee
welll mine can! i have a panasonic 512 mb mmc from a camera and it works but very slowly
