i want notification and ringer volume to be one and the same
is there anyway to do that?
or is it just another one of those features samsung removed?
There is an app called Simple Volume that I used on my Note 3 that linked the two. It works pretty good.
Phone won't let me post a link, but if you Google search it you should find out easy.

I wasn't sure where the best place to reach out to HTC would be so I've started some threads on their own pages.

update: i figured it out. notifications are tied to media volume, not notification volume. the temp work around I have is (using Quick Settings) check the box that links Ringer volume for notifications.

Been there done that. Doesn't fix it. Still atleast 50% of the iPhone's volume.
Hi All,
I haven't been able to find a way to unlink the notification volume and the ringer volume in stock-ish ICS (I generally don't stray from pete's ROMS). In GB it was easy, cause they had separate volume sliders. I'd prefer to have my ringer go off much louder than my notifications so that I hear it, but still get faint little audible notifications when I get an email or text or whatever.
Do other ROM's have this functionality? Is there a simple workaround? Or is this something that would require a mod?

Yeah this annoyed the heck out of me also, for some reason they removed this functionality from ICS ... I have no idea why.
It annoyed me so much I wrote an app to work around it ... I just released it on the market mere hours ago!
Check it out, works a treat -

Much more development and features coming to make it easier and better to use.
My question -- Open Kang Milestone 3 now has the ability to unlink notifications, but I like to play with other ROMs. (I love Gummy and always come back to it.) Is there any way to extract that ability and present it as a standalone fix? Or will devs start including that as standard in their roms now?
BTW, I've downloaded Sloppy's app and it works great, lets me keep my ringer on at night but turn off all other notifications. Also, he's very responsive to inquiries. The paid app is worth it.
..
There are people complaining all over the internet about this, but only 255 people starred the issue in google code.
Come on, star the issue and "push" google to fix this.

or
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23202
Yeah this is annoying and totally non sense. I hope they find a way to restore it without having to wait for all rom devs to implement it or having to download a (paid) app that consume memory (even if very little)
Peter Alfonso has this implemented in his roms now, so I'm all good. I switched to cyanogen before Pete had baked it into his ROM, but I had the same experience I always do with cyanogen. Smooth at first, but then deteriorates to laggy, slow and unusable in a couple weeks without a fresh flash. I starred the issue on Google anyway though...it's pretty whack.

Wonder app...and it works on ICS. I can now have my ringer volume on high and the text and email volume to silent. COOL.
"ICS Enhanced Ringer Control" get it on the silly named "Play Store"
I'm using RezRom and it works! Yea
Try Audio Control, it's by far the best volume management app in the Google Play store. There is both a notification and ringer volume for ICS or Jelly Bean.
Really helpful developer too.

Hello,
Is there anyway to make all the volumes move together at the same time? Its annoying me that when you use the volume up and down on the side of the phone it changes the ring tone only. Sometimes you want the text tone louder but its a lot off faff to go into the settings and change it for the one time you are in a noisy area and you want to hear it.
Thanks
Richard
You could always download an app like Quick Settings and link the ringer volume to the notification volumes so they move the same.
Additionally, Quick Settings is a sweet app and its free.
I am in the market right now!
How do I silence notifications?
I have been looking around the settings and cannot find a way to silence the notification sound for SMS's, emails, etc. On stock Android most applications have a ringtone called "Silent" or something to that effect. On the HOS I cannot find it. I feel stupid asking this, but hopefully I am not the only one that is new to Sense and does not know where this is.
Thank you.

Go into sms>setting>notification>uncheck notification sound to silent sms. Then go to mail>settings>notification settings>uncheck sound notification. Hope this helps

Notifications and the phone Ringer volumes are tied together with no way to separate them. If you put the phone in silent it will silence notifications, or if you use the volume rocker on the side of the phone, notification sound volumes will decrease with ringer volume.

That is completely impractical. If I want notifications silenced, I don't want to jump through ****ing hoops like some dog & pony show, but I suppose technically you're right. As long as you don't mind all those ridiculous steps to get it done. But you can't turn notification volume down without turning ringer volume down.

hey im not htc i didnt decide to make it that way lol. i know its pretty dumb but he wants to be able to silent the sms, email, etc and thats how we have to do it. lol
An alternative solution: Try getting the app Volume Control +, set it so that ringtone volume and notification volume are not linked, and then turn down the volume on notifications all the way.
I haven't tried it, so tell us if it works for you.
I've tried with other volume control apps,and they all show different volumes for a second, but ringer and notification are always the same volume, even if the app shows them as different. I guess I'll give Volume Control+ a shot, but I would be surprised if it made a difference.

Volume Control+ & Audio Manager wont do it either.

Thank you for your responses and support.
I was able to disable the notification sound for gmail and SMS.
However, I cannot find a way to disable the notification sound for calendar events. Does anybody know how to disable event notification sounds?
I think it is crazy that "Silent" is not an option in the default list of notification sounds. It would be the easiest way to disable all notifications in one-step.
Thank you.
Hello everyone i installed the new leak for my skyrocket. Everything seems to be working great but my sound profile. When i use the volume rocker to mute my phone the status bar does show that the mute profile is selected. However when i get a notifucation the sound plays. I thought this would be a simple fix by just going to sound selecting the mute profile then turning down the volume for notifications. By doing this the sound for the notifications was muted but when uaing the volume rocker to set profile to normal my notifiactions did not play nike they should. Its seems as though my sound profile is curupt or something. Can someone tell me the dir for the sound profile so i can try deleting it? I am rooted. Thanks.
