Coming from an HTC phone, I had the option to "Use incoming call volume for notifications". It was an easy way for me to turn up and down all volume using the side volume rockers. I don't see this option for the note. I was in a meeting yesterday and thought my phone volume was turned off, but the notifications kept going off. It'd be so much easier if i could use the volume rocker to turn down the sound as opposed to going into the settings and manually doing it every time I want to change the volume. Any tips?
I use widgetlocker and have a volume slider on my lock screen, I always just slide it to vibrate

I very often become irritated over accidentally touching the Volume buttons when not using the phone, for example when writing a text message in landscape mode, as touching the Volume buttons means changing the ringer status to for example vibrating or soundless.
Is is possible to disable the Volume buttons when not the using phone for calls?
I now that this means that I need to use the settings in order to change ringer volume etc.
Thank you in advance.
I too get annoyed by the same thing,
Glad its just not me,
I would also like to know if this is possible.
I don't know if it is possible to disable the controls but an app called ringer volume control http://www.androlib.com/android.application.vol-qwmn.aspx will restore the ringer volume to the level you have choosen in the program.
Thanks
That app works great.
is there a way to have your hd2 ring at the highest volume possible all the time, except if its on silent or vibrate mode?
if for example i press the volume buttons on the side and set the volume to 1 bar, the ringtone's volume will be lowered as well.
In settings select Sound & DisplAy and turn off single volume. Now when you hit your volume button, there'll be two tabs - System and Ring. There you can max out your ring volume and still have your messaging/media volume at whatever level you want.
Hope this helps dude
had no idea what that option did..
thx a lot for the help
No problem mate!
Hello,
S3 is my first smartphone ever, so please be patient
Since I'm a student, I put my phone on mute during the classes (through the notification bar).
However, it happened to me twice now that accidental touch on volume up hard key took me out of mute. This is of course undesirable... Is there a way to disable this function of volume-up key?
I want to remain muted until I cancel it on notification bar.
Thanks!
bump... can anyone help?
Sad....it remains a big drawback of the android phones that we cant make different profiles for volume like Nokia phones......
I think you can only do this by finding a tone with no sound and setting it for all the alerts manally from sound setting before entering your class room
anyhow this is a good question and hope some devs can desable vol- button for enabling full vol. back
Thanks...
but modifying it manually at the beginning of each class, then again at the end, is not very comfortable.
Perhaps it can be fixed with a mod? something like that:
- clicking volume up if phone is not muted increases the volume, as usual.
- clicking volume up if phone is muted doesn't do anything.
My mom has Andorid LG phone with the volume buttons on the back. I'm not sure if those buttons are causing problems but 90% of the time she has issues with volume being turned all the way down. That causes a problem because those moments nobody cann call her as she does not hear the ring. I wonder if there is any hack or App to lock the volume at max level and disable physical buttons (and screen slider if possible).
Ahy ideas ?
I'm used to pixels where the volume control button will go down to silent with vibration and if you go one more down, it will disable vibration and be totally silent. Is there a way to get the samsung volume control to behave this way?
