[Q] volume button on case

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.

[Q] volume buttons issue

Hello,
Sometimes when I press volume up button, it "sticks" in position and I'm forced to press volume down to unstick it.Does some of you encountered this issue?
thanks

No, I have a different volume bug though. When my phone is on silent or vibrate only, sometimes when I try to increase volume by pressing volume up button the volume increase overlay window appears (as expected) showing that my volume is increasing. But the silent or vibrate icon in my notification bar does not disappear, and in fact my volume has not increased at all.
This is intermittent and the only way I have found of fixing it is to reboot the phone.

Not me. Buttons work fine.

Mine is fine as well

ring mode switch when screen off

Hi folks
I have an idea about ring modes and volume keys.
Is it possible to patch volume keys in cyanogenmod to switch ring mode without screen wake? Like it works to next/prev track with headset.
So, idea is to toggle mute/vibro and back to normal with long down/up volume w/out headset in sleep.

[Q] How do you adjust volume with screen off / @ lock screen?

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.

location of timeout delay of volume slider?

As the title says. Does anyone know where I can set the volume slider timeout delay that comes up when you press the volume buttons? I assume it's in the build prop? Thanks in advance.

The issue I have is when holding the volume button in either direction. A single press of the volume button brings up the slider almost immediately [timed at 0:0039 seconds] (but doesn't change the volume). Once the slider appears, pressing or holding the volume button again changes the volume immediately. Once the slider disappears, it takes a moment to wait for it to re-appear after holding the volume button (+ or - makes no difference). In the last 2 times I've timed this, it takes 0:0106 seconds for the slider to appear.
I only started noticing this issue after upgrading to 190123. I can't confirm if it for sure occurred because of this update.
P.S.: I just noticed that when holding the volume button up or down with the screen off, the volume does not adjust. I have to tap press the volume button to turn it up or down each step. Is this normal as I haven't noticed this "issue" before?
