Is there a way? There are apps that can do this but the optimus 3d override their settings and have the loud click sound again.
I've noticed this from time to time... the keyboard volume is linked to media volume. Sometimes i just pull down the notification area, play music, adjust media volume, stop music. voila

How come when I put my phone on silent mode and I launch some apps like dillo hills the in game sound still plays? Am I making some huge mistake?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Though a jerkish thing to do, programs can override the ringer mode through the audio manager.

wow that's terrible. Maybe an app I can download that will override everything and make all applications silent? Because when the media volume is all the way down then you cant hear it.
Yes. the media volume controls the sound in most apps, games, music, video, etc. When "silent" mode is on, it only mutes the ringer, notification, and system sounds.
I've just adapted to turning the media volume down before going to class/somewhere "important" if I were listening to music beforehand as I usually do. Or just going to settings and turning it down before running an app that may have sounds.
I notice that in the options menu, you can change media volume, ring volume, alarm volume, and notification volume. From what I understand, system sounds such as the lock/unlock noise, audio feedback from item selection, and more, are determined by media volume. Which is the same volume used to play music/video files. I wish they were separate options as sometimes I want my music to play softly but I system sounds to be full volume. Would this be possible in a custom ROM or is it an issue with the hardware?
Have you tried a 3rd part volume manager to see if it works? All of them give you the option to adjust only system volume. I use volume Ace
I use Quick Settings
Hi to All,
Before using my headset to listen to music I set the Ringer volume at maximum.
But the moment I touch the Volume rocker switch to change the media volume (during music play) the Ringer Volume automatically reduces and lowers to match the media volume.
After this has happened if a call comes in the only way I know is that the music mutes but I hear no ring tone. If I am lucky and in a very quiet environment I can just barely hear the ringtone in the background.
Is anyone else having this problem - and even better is there a solution?
I have the same concern, but it seems no one has any good answer.
in my case, I have this problem after I migrated to a ICS ROM. I have this problem both in stock and other custom ROMs.
I used audio concert app while in GB to have different volume profiles for with/without headset connected, and from what I can remember, I could hear the ringtone and notification sounds loud and clear.
On ICS, even if I set ringtone volume at MAX with headset connected, the ringtone is inaudible. The only way to notice an incoming call or sms is by music being muted. For ringtone, it is longer and so more noticeable, but for sms, it often goes unnoticed...
Hope someone could give me the settings to get the loudest volume for ringtones... it's too quiet. I've amplified the mp3 files I use for ringtones using audacity but I think the phone settings could be better.
Also, how do I get the music I'm paused on or playing to tile onto the music + video tile on home screen?
in samsung devices it has a diagnostic mode that you can increase the volume of phone and ringtone but on other divices i didn't see such thing
Anyway to adjust media volume and ring tone volume at the same time? Like in most other phones.
Stock android and cm have the option of individually adjusting volume for ringtone, media, notifications. On the z3 it's a pain to adjust the media volume. If i have to watch a video with no volume I have to open apps like YouTube and adjust the volume and then play the video. Its a simple thing to have and yet the z3 doesn't have it. Thats the biggest issue I have with this phone.
If you have tasker, follow this guide:

Edit, nope that doesn't work, sorry! Although I managed to link ringer and alarm volumes, but for some reason media volume doesn't work
Edit 2, it does seem to sort of work, but it's almost like the media volume works on a different scale to the other volumes. Anyone got any ideas?
