You need to edit the menu.ml file. Try searching the forum! |

If you just install it you will have it in the applications folder of the phone... If you want it in the main menu instead of the default music plyaer you have to edit the menu.ml file to do that.

Do you mean how to change it so the phone A2DP functions and the play/stop button on the side of the phone only manipulate the KD player and not the Music Player too? ie, you press stop button and the KD player stops playing, but the Music Player starts? Thats whats happening to me right now. Any ideas? |

it's not possible. Java cannot access these buttons.

Java can use those buttons... But not when the screen light goes off.

I didn't think so? Maybe it's changed.
For example on the phones with play button, the play is hardwired to the media player (or rather the last played video, track or radio station).
So when you press it it pauses any audio being used by java.
If I'm wrong then it should be possible to code java apps to use the play button, yet I've never seen such a beast. I hope I am wrong.

The play/stop button and the A2DP funtions (at least the play/stop) function do work with kd-player if thats what your wondering. I have a k800 with the latest k810 FW and the latest 9 series kd player. I think a lot has changed from 8 series to 9 based on my troubleshooting-google-searches. |

Try with another version of kd player. Actually my KD player while I was using K800, worked with the side buttons for volume and tracks change. Didn't use the play stop button (used number 5 instead) and also the game buttons were working for changing tracks and using the seeker to.

Well I think the difference between those 2 was only the equalizer.. Not 100% sure though.

got it now, yeah haven't found much difference. It does support hold +/- to track reverse or advance.
That's actually a very handy improvement.
