Hi Guys,
Does anyone know if it is possible to adjust our phone's volume (music volume, or to quickly put the phone in/out of silent mode) while :
1. While the screen is off
2. While the screen is on and still in the locked screen (when there is a password set...due to exchange security policies)
Thanks!
You can change your media volume with the screen off, but I don't believe you can change your ringer volume. I have a Pebble watch and I'm able to use it to quickly toggle between ringer, vibrate and mute, but that's as close as I think you can get.

While your screen is on at the lock screen, press and hold the power button until the "power off" and all the other options menu pops up. Then press the volume up and down.
You can now adjust your volume up/down while locked.

Every time I touch the Volume Button on the side of the case (even accidentally) the ringer volume goes down incrementally. Can this button be locked or deactivated? Can the volume be locked in some other way? Does the vibration setting have anything to do with this issue?
Volume Control + will lock your volume for you.

Didnt work, I can still press the volume buttons while off- turning on the screen-changing the volume.
Hi all,
Quick question -
I upgraded to 5.0.1. yesterday, and now I can no longer use the volume rocker as a shortcut to switch between "no interrruptions (silent)" and ALL notifications. In other words I cannot use the volume rocker to adjust ring volume and or disable notifications for a period of hours.
The volume rocker only adjusts MEDIA volume now?
What is the quickest shortcut to adjust from ring volume and/or disable interruptions, without having to go into the settings, sound menu.
I'm sure there must be some shortcut.
thanks
Sorry. The shortcut is still there and works with volume rocker. I killed everything in my tasks view window, just dragged away about 20 different tasks. And now the volume rocker shows the options again.
It seems some app was holding the volume rocker as media volume only, even when the app was backgrounded.
When it happens again I'll remove the tasks one at a time to identify the app at fault.

Hi,
When you switch on the phone , you have a ringtone I would like to disable, is this possible ?
I didn't manage to find anything in the parameters.
Thanks
There isn't an option like Motorola or other OEM, but if you turn off your phone in "silent mode", when you turn it on again there will be no sound.

OK , I just tried..... and it works.
I wish I had a sound symbol to press on and off like wifi, torch light etc.... may be with an update later on who knows.
Anyway thanks a lot for the tip, I appreciate very much.
When you press a button of the volume rocker appears on the screen the slider to adjust the volume, right? If you press on the ring bell next to the slider the device goes in "silent mode" without changing the volume and in place of the ring bell appears the vibration symbol. If you press on the vibration symbol, the ring bell appears again and the volume returns to your favorite setting. It is a quick setting that allows you to switch between ringtone and silent mode without changing the volume, but placed in the quick volume menu, rather than in the general quick settings.
As an alternative you have the DND (Do Not Disturb) mode that has its toggle in the quick settings.
Yes this noise annoys me too but I rarely turn my phone off unless there is a reboot due to updates.
Dear all,
Pls help how to turn off vibration in Messenger app and Volume, Power (when turn on screen) button on HTC U12+
I can't find where to turn off?
I assume you're speaking about Facebook Messenger.
Open Messenger app. In the right upper corner tap on your profile picture.
You will see settings. Tap on Notifications and manage vibration and sounds.
Sorry I can't understand how the Power button is involved.

If you are referring to the “clicking“ when pressing the power button and volume buttons which is a haptic feedback. Install one of the two custom kernels in this forum. They both include a companion and configuration app where you can turn this off.
