[Q] Lowest volume is too loud - how to fix? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Lowest media volume is OK and has a fair number of "notches". Ringtone & notifications and alarm volumes are too loud at lowest setting and have fewer "notches". How can I add more "notches" and lower the lowest volume for these two? Using CM11 - don't know if that's important.

[Q] Reduce in call volume (headset)

HTC One S, stock T-Mobile ROM.
Phone calls with a headset are uncomfortably loud on the lowest in-call volume setting.
Is there a setting I can tweak?
Volume+, give it a shot, there is a free version but I paid for the app, good app that works. I haven't tried reducing the volume on my headset yet but I know the app works for boosting volumes, I'm sure it has the ability to lower them also.

Thanks for the link!
Tried Volume+ and it only has options for increasing volume (+1...+4), thought it has a great interface.
I checked out a couple other apps in the play market and found that 'Volume Ace +' let me drop my 'system' volume to 0/7; this seemed to make my in-call volume a little better
I have voice call already set at 0/5. If there was a setting or app that could add a few more settings below 0/5 that would be great.

[Lollipop] Volume Panel?

One of the gripes I have with android L is that if im playing music through google play, I can't change the volume of the ringer while the music is playing. It just adjusts the music volume. Is there an expandable volume panel object of some sort? thanks.
Also interested in this, subscribed.
There is an app called Noyze that seems to be what we are after but it needs to be updated because it can't be activated in lollipop...
Settings -> Sound & Notification
Yeah great. If you git a mo3 or video screaming way to loud I will go to settings and then....
Thats ridiciculous.
An expandable volume panel has just been added in the latest Cataclysm ROM update.

Well no because if you have media playing, the volume keys control the media. There's no problem there. OP wants to adjust ringtone volume whilst media is playing. Volume keys won't control ringtones until media is stopped.
Try Volume Button by Yogesh Dama. Not exactly what you what but it may be enough until we see this in custom ROMs.

Lowest media volume still way too loud. Is it possible to lower the minimum volume?

When I listen to music in a quiet room, even on the lowest volume it's way too loud (using earphones). I know there are tweaks to boost the volume above the hardware default, but is it possible to do the opposite?
What I've tried:
- Increasing the number of steps on the volume slider but the lowest volume is still the same.
- "Fine Volume App" - didn't work either
Any ideas?
I'm running Resurrection Remix on 6.0.1.
Thanks!

Read the thread on manually boosting the volume, it states exactly what changed, just lower those settings and test, rebooting each time

Thanks for the response.
Doesn't this only change the maximum possible volume though, not the lowest possible volume?

I'm pretty sure it's like a multiplier... if you change it from 90 to 84 the total volume will lower over the entire range, at least that is what I thought.

Disable the beep sound on volume change

Hello,
Is there a way to disable that annoying *BEEP* sound when adjusting the volume over Bluetooth?
There is nothing in /system/media/audio/ui/ that is related to this.

You can bring up the volume controls and adjust volume from there.

It still beeps even if i use the slider.
Also, in Settings>Sounds>Other sounds there is an option to disable the volume adjustment sounds, but it doesn't work - I hear BEEP on every level of adjustment.

Well, I'm not exactly sure about that, because the beeps are in every ROM and on every version of Android. I've read in the Samsung subforums that there is a line in framework. jar that is related to the volume adjustment sounds, which uses ToneGenerator for the beep, but all this is above my field of knowledge.

OxigenOS 5.1.6 sounds too loud also at minimum volume.

Hi, I've update the op6 to oos 5.1.6, but I noticed that with the minimum volume the sounds are TOO LOUD. Is impossible to mantain the phone with the sounds on at work with this volume. There are any methods or a different way to reduce the volume of system+ringtone+notification (because OP has merged in a only one volume)?
I am rooted and I have twrp.
Change volume percentage (original mininimum is 14%, I tried 4%) with automate or something like this, doesn't function.

You can try gravity box to separate notification and ringtone volume or a custom kernel to edit the speaker loudness :good:

Gravitybox it's only for separate the ringtone and notification volume as op have requested

I have the same issue. I have had to turn notifications off for Facebook and Messenger as its too loud. The only other way to stop them is to set the slider switch on the side of the phone to vibrate....
I thought it was just me, but not being able to totally volume down notifications is a major flaw in this firmware
