Some ringtones are much quieter than others.--you can use one of the quieter ringtones for notification tone. Also, you can make your own and add it to the phone, or use an existing one, edit a copy of it softer with an audio editor, save with a different name, and add it back to the phone.
Maybe there's an Xposed module for that though--like this:

Hello, I have an android phone with the volume and notification tones linked to the same volume. I know this is an ongoing issue with the new updates and that there are apps available that supposedly unlink the two. I want the notifications on full volume and the ringtone on about half volume.
is it possible to edit ringtones so they will only be half of the original volume and so tricking the new android update and kind of giving me a way of unlinking the tones?

Use an audio editor (mp3 editor) and increase or decrease the amplitude of your selected ringtones.
Save your ringtones for future use.
Thanks for taking the time to reply, fantastic info!

Hi guys,
I flashed the factory image today and am quite pleased with it up to now, but there are 2 issues that really annoy me:
1. When sending messages in whatsapp, I don't get that pop sound it used to make.. it just sends the message and I can hear a very short strange and faint sound. other than that all regular notification are fine.
2. I'm sure this has been discussed thoroughly but what's the deal with removing silent\vibrate from the power menu options? I can't really remember how it used to be in the clean android 4.x since I was using xposed with gravityBox and I set the volume to control notifications+system sounds. aaaaaanyway, there is now way now to put the phone on silent COMPLETELY without going into settings>sounds and lowering the media volume separately.. sucks..
1: Complain to the app dev to update the app
2: Complain to Google

1. Same here. I guess the "pop" sound file has a format which worked fine on KitKat and now doesn't in Lollipop. => WhatsApp needs an update.
2. The notification system in Lollipop was profounld changed in comparison to KitKat. KitKat had sound, sound+vib, vib, none. Now, Lollipop distinguishes wheather you want all, some or no notification sounds. If you don't want any vibration, select "none" in the popup after pressing the volume rocker of the Nexus. You will receive everything, but you will not be bothered by any sound (also no vibration). If you just want some "importand" notifications with their sounds or vibration, selsect it in the same popup! What exactly is important and which calls you will receive is configured in the menu.
In short:
No vib, no sound: "None"
Vib only: "All" with decreased Volume down to vibration

Thanks for the reply mate, but you are quite wrong regarding the sound profiles, if you choose "none", media volume is not affected. I'll give you a scenario, say I'm in my room, and in the next room my baby boy is sleeping, I choose "none", then I go to watch a YouTube video, the video will have normal volume, my boy will wake up and my wife will beat me with whatever is the closest blunt object. While before, I had the option to silence media volume manually by pressing the volume rocker (or all together using xposed but that's not the case here), now in order to silence media volume you need to go into settings>sounds and mute it. What I'm saying is that "none" is not really complete silence, as it should be.
As much as I like the overall volume on the OPO, the chosen NFC tone is way too loud and irritating for the amount that I use it. Anyone have any idea where these tones are defined and can they be changed or silenced? This might be better asked in a CM forum but figured I would start here.
In Tasker you can set the "DMTF Volume" to 0. That way there is no sound.
I'm sorry, but I don't know how to set this volume in the standard settings of Android or CyanogenMod.
Note this is not the same as the "dial-pad touch tones" setting!
Hi,
Just bought a Moto G to replace a smashed Nexus 4, (I loved that 'phone and now it's dead), and can't find notification volume control settings. There's no volume slider for notifications under "Sound & notification", so where is it? What am I missing?
Running stock lollipop 5.1.1 which came with the 'phone. Thanks in advance.

Notification volume is controlled by "Ring Volume" under "Sound & Notification" settings.
Oh. So if I want low notification volume but high ring volume I can't?
Unfortunately no, not that I know of.

My colleague has 5.0 on his Samsung Note and has control over Notification volume, which is independent of Ring volume, there being a volume slider for each. Is lack of Notification control a Moto G issue or is it a 5.1.1 change? I'm frustrated as I really want notification to be very discreet whilst leaving ring on loud.

Apparently the Samsung ROM unties ringer and notification, as did the ROMs I installed on my Nexus and also my tablet. I had no idea but it seems ringer and notification are only tied on stock lollipop. Is that right?
Hi
I know this might not be the place to ask this question but i think someone might know. I have a zuk z2 (Lenovo z2 plus). I'm on AOSP Extended rom and it's great. But i have some struggles with my personalised volume / notification settings. I'd like to not get a sound from a notification but have it vibrate, but i DO want to have my ringtone volume on. I can't figure it out, the aosp extended is off course based off of stock/Pixel/aosp Android. Please help
Under Sound in the settings, there should be an option to change the default SMS and notification tones. The first one on the list is none. If you select none for SMS and default notifications and have a phone ringtone selected, then you should get the results you are looking for.
