I think you have to create a BroadcastReceiver which listen to android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON.
for BroadcastReceiver see this thread: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/broadcastreceiver.12493/

Okey

Is this the code needed ??
B4X: 
Sub Service_Start (StartingIntent As Intent)
   Broadcast.addAction("android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON")
   Broadcast.SetPriority(2147483647)
   Broadcast.registerReceiver("")
End Sub

Sub BroadcastReceiver_OnReceive (Action As String)
   ToastMessageShow(Action,False)
   'can only abort when sendOrderedbroadcast is called.
   Broadcast.AbortBroadcast
End Sub

Becuase i cant se anything

did you add something like
B4X: 
AddReceiverText(MyService, <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON" />
    </intent-filter>)
to the manifest?

Like this ??

B4X: 
AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" android:targetSdkVersion="14"/>
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true"
    android:normalScreens="true"
    android:smallScreens="true"
    android:anyDensity="true"/>)
AddReceiverText(MyService, <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON" />
    </intent-filter>)
SetApplicationAttribute(android:icon, "@drawable/icon")
SetApplicationAttribute(android:label, "$LABEL$")

I get an error on MyService , What should it be ?
I have never used Manifest Editor before
