Hi! I'm not sure where to put this, but I think it's an app I'm after so I'll make a try here.
Is there any way, like an app, to control the volume buttons? I change the volume accidently all the time, actually I rarely ever want to change it since this is a wifi only version and I I find the system sounds just disturbing. So turning them off completely would be nice, and I've searched for a app to do this but no luck yet.. A small widget to replace the power button sure ain't hard to find so it must be possible.
Thanks in advance!

the Q&A section would have been the place to ask a question. But I don't know of any app for that. Never wanted needed something like that. I don't know how you change it on accident.

As far as I can tell that's just an app to change the volume in the status bar. It doesn't seems to turn off the hardware buttons, or is it?

I have no idea what you mean but there ain't a way to turn off the buttons in the settings as far as I can see. And that's my problem, I know how to change the volume without using the buttons, there's even apps for that like the one linked above. But I've not found any to turn off the buttons, preferably all the time except for when it change the media volume but it's not the end of the world if I have to do that manually in the device as well..

Congrats you helped this person exactIy 0%....
1.He stated he didnt know if he had placed his post in the right section ,he didnt ask where he should have placed it.
2.Why reply at all with an abscence of an answer, ie: "But I dont know of any app for that" .If everyone who didnt know of an "app for that" posted,the post would be 4,000 pages long....just stay on the sidelines.
3.OP didnt ask what YOU wanted/needed..."Never wanted needed something like that"
4.Your thinly veiled condemnation of his misfingering his device (accidentally adjusting the volume) is completely uncalled for.
MODS: My apologies if I am out of line.
OP: I would think a mod rather than an app might be what you seek.Apps being more device universal.Try the Themes section.Lotta mods there.

Well I suppose it's good to know next time how to think when posting a new thread, I use different forums all the time but I'm not used to this "is it a question, post it in Q&A no matter the topic". To me every thread should be posted in the section that best describes the subject no matter if it's a question or not but that's obviously not the case here.

Hmm, I was worried about that but since there seems to be an app for everything now I thought there might be that for this as well. I know that I'm not the only one with this problem, and besides many with me think that the buttons are turned upside down when you use the device on portrait mode like I do now. If I have it turned with camera facing to the right seen from the screen side volume up is down and if I rotate it 180 degrees I can't hold and it while typing without accidently pressing the buttons.
Actually I think the button to adjust the system sounds is useless on a wifi-only device, but that's a different story. So to get back to topic, I suppose this mod can't be done without rooting the device first?

There's an app called volume locker which locks your volume unless you confirm any changes due to pressing buttons.

I think he just means if there's some way to make the volume buttons act as a hardware camera button, although his wording does make it somewhat ambiguous.
I've searched and tried several apps to link ringer and notification. I love TouchWiz, but this is the ONE thing that pushes me to a CM ROM. I don't want to have to open an app each time i want to change both options. I came from an Optimus V and a Thunderbolt after. Both were able to link Ringer/Notification volumes.
So, does anybody know if a "fix" has been round or at least a workaround?
Nobody even has a suggestion? i know somebody here has got to know something :fingers-crossed:

Apps allow linking the two but only if you change the volume from within the app. If you use the volume rocker the two stay unlinked. I'm looking for a way to permanently link the two to allow use of the volume rocker.

My question is about this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...e&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=tap+tap+tap+app
It uses the proximity sensor to unlock the screen (so saving the power button) but I'm concern that it would probably over load the sensor over time from continuously being on ... What do you think ?
Seems like a waste of time unless your power button is broken.

Power button doesn't seem that it will last so long , plus waiving a finger infront of the speaker area is easier that pushing a button , but Iam afraid it won't be free !!!
I've seen other people use it before. Works well enough I suppose, however there are also ways unlock your phone using the soft keys.

How ?
It has been programmed into a few of our ROMS, so check the development section, and you can also find multiple apps that will do it however I would steer away from ones that use the proximity sensor or anything else other than the soft keys as you're probably looking at a pretty hefty battery drain.
Edit: just checked my current ROM (CM9) and it has it under lock screen settings.

Mahann! My apologies mate! I completely misread what you wanted!
Ok, I did have a way to WAKE my phone on my old og droid with the volume rocker.
However the only thing I know of that can wake your phone is an app where you shake your phone to wake it.
You can find it in the play store.
I know this is probably not what you are looking for, but it's all I got on this subject. Good luck man. Let us know if you find anything!

i dont know if im the only one that find it annoying that you can press the back button on the phone with the s-pen. so i would love to see some Devs. add the a onscreen button profile that can be activated when the s-pen is in use.
like this you pull out the S-pen and you get the soft button navigation bar in the bottom of the screen. once you put the spen back in its place the nav bar disappears again. dont know if anyone have tought of this, but i think it would be a cool addition to any rom. you shuld ofcause have the option to disable / enable this feature.
Please let me know what you guys think.
And sorry if i posted this in the wrong section im not sure if i did or not

Anyone know of an app or mod to make my phone appear off without turning it off? Perhaps a toggle that requires you to press home and power to wake the phone? My phone has to be off at work and they check it.
There might be but is it really worth it? Sounds pretty strict, I doubt they would be happy about that. Good luck I guess.

Yes, worth it. You don't understand my job. My phone is aloud to be on most of the time, just not during certain tasks.
If its supposed to be off, and you don't wanna lose your job, why not just turn it off when you're supposed to?

There isn't an app for that. Just turn your phone off.

There isn't any app or mod for something that is already in the phone. All you have to do is set your phone to silent/vibrate and press the power button to put it in deep sleep mode. Also press the power button again to wake the phone. To keep from getting text at work just turn off your data. Also what the hell is with you telling me to shut the f##k up when you are asking for an app or mod for a function that comes standard in ALL cellphones. Hell a toddler can figure that out.

but he also wants to have it be a combo to pull it out of sleep mode like screen off unless you hold power and vol up then push home button.
As far as i know there is no way to do this only ways to add more ways to wake it.
My other thought is how brain dead are the people checking your phone while your in a no cell zone... (Which they either do for good reason or they do just cause they don't want to deal with it.)
