[Q] One Volume Button for All - General Questions and Answers

Using a Samsung Epic 4G under Sprint. I believe Gingerbread is on here. Is there a way I can set this phone so that all the different sound volumes (except for media) is controlled via the one main volume control? As it is now, notifications have there own volume control. At the end of the night, when going to bed, I usually lower the ringer volume to the lowest setting (lowest without being off), but the notification sounds, such as if someone texts me, remains loud. I have to manually go into the SETTINGS > SOUND > VOLUME to control that separately. Would be nice to all just follow my MAIN volume switch.

System vs Ringer Volume Control

Does anyone know a way to set a W6.5 phone to System speaker on and Ringer to vibrate? At least with my phone (Omnia 2), when i leave my phone in vibrate mode (as i normally do) and go into my car, the bluetooth speaker remains muted. I discovered that when i went into the Volume control wheel, setting one side to vibrate automatically forced the other to vibrate. i'm not sure if it is a "hands-free" profile issue or what, but it seems to me thast if you can choose which volume to set (system vs ringer) they should be independnt of one another.

Volume for calls/notification link together?

Is there anyway to link them together? I sometimes want the volume to be quieter but not off (eg when getting late and room-mate is sleeping).
It's kind of irritating that I have to go into settings and adjust 2 volumes independently
I missed the option of having ringer volume and notification volume linked together too.
On my old DX2 there was a check box to link them.
I bought some NFC tags and set them to various volumes (+ WIFI/bluetooth/etc) home/work/night that way.
No tapping around and adjusting volumes.

Different volume setting

Hello, I remember that in stock Gingerbread of the Blur UI of my Atrix 4G , when I plug my headphone into the phone, the volume setting will change so that I will have a specific volume setting when the headphones are plugged in. This is quite helpful in the situation where you do not want your ringer volume to be at maximum when you are using your headphone (sometime the volume level change scare you) and want it to be back at maximum when you unplug it. But when I switched to the Omega ROM v16 for the Note 2, it seems that it only have a single volume setting for everything. For example, if I set the ringer volume to maximum, when I plug my headphones in and there is a call, it becomes quite noisy... Any mods for specific volume setting?

Cannot mute the device via volume rocker or the pull down menu - sticks on vibrate.

I can volume up and down into vibrate but thats the full range - pull down menu item flips between sound and vibrate only. I can however change it in the sound settings - anyone experience this before - It has to be software but for the life of me no idea what setting or possible conflict makes this happen. And randomly I will be able to do it with the rocker but most of the time vibrate is the lowest setting I can get the phone to change to without going into the settings panel.

Notification volume?

I'm getting desperate about the notification volume thing. I'm using volume butler but it's not reliable, especially when switching to DND mode and back. Sometimes my ringtone is very soft while the notifications are really loud.
Looking for a final fix for this, my phone is rooted. Is there some build.prop that can be enabled or a magisk mod?
Hello, you can use Button Mapper here in XDA.
You have the option to use ringtone volume instead of media volume with the + - button.
You can also make applications exceptions. I use that with play music while I use Chromecast.
That's work without root.
Regards.
I used Tasker and set up tasks that sets levels for everything in four different volume conditions... Vibrate, Low, Medium and High. Within each task, I set Alarm Volume, Media Volume, Notification Volume and Ringer Volume. I also created a pop-up to tell me what profile I just set.
Then, I created individual widgets on the screen that are simply shortcuts to the tasks - one for each volume condition. Tasker comes with that widget built in. When I want to change the volume on my phone, I just tap the icon for the volume I want.
It doesn't override DND and it sets the volumes exactly as you want them every time.
