Volume slide change - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Opon pressing the volume up or volume down button I can only change the ringtone volume. If I want to turn the media volume (or others) down or up I have to go to the settings.
Is there any way I can add more volume sliders or change the volume slider, I want to be able to change more than just the ringtone volume by pressing the volume+ and volume- buttons.

Long Volume Up/Down keys remap

Does anyone knows how to remap Volume Up/Down keys?
I tried creating \Windows\Long_VolDown.lnk shortcut and setting HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\KeyMaps\195 to 0, but what ever I do those keys just repeat.
I would like to start my application on Long press to any of the volume keys.

[Q] volume help

was wondering if there was a reg edit to change how much the volume increases/decreases on one press of the volume buttons... i think it changes three bars on one press of either button, any way of making it one bar per press of the buttons... three is too much, for me anyway...
cheers
Just press one of the volume buttons so that the volume dialog comes up and then use the screen to change the level. You can go up and down 1 bar at a time, rather than 3.
You can have up to 16 levels (instead of 6) with Volumex

Adjust both volumes with rocker?

Is there any way to use the volume rocker to adjust both the main volume and notification volume at the same time? Only the main volume slider moves with the rocker.
I don't know start the icon is called, but if you press the one next to the volume bar when using the volume trucker to change the volume it should show an option for it. At least that what I regent seeing on that screen. I sent my prime in for RMA last Thursday.

When you press the volume rocker,the icon pops up. There is an icon on the volume bar,but it only shows you the 2 separate volumes. There are no options that come up.
The second volume bar controls system notifications I believe.

I'm aware of that. You have to manually slide it with your finger to adjust it though. I want to be able to move the volume rocker and have both volumes adjust at the same time.

[Q] Volume buttons only control media volume?

I know there have been related topics of the volume rocker buttons only controlling media volume, but my question is spawned by something else that I was able to do a few days ago.
So I used to have a HTC amaze, the volume rockers controls the ringer/notifications. I liked that. I tend to change my notification/ringers often throughout the work day. But now I'm noticing on my SIII that the buttons only control media, which I understand is practical seeing as how ringers/notifications are thought of as a set it and forget it.
But the other day I was at the movies and was able to hit my volume rocker and it controlled my ringer volume and went all the way down to vibrate. And I did this from the home screen. I do it now, and it controls media. I know that you can hole the power button and you have quick access to vibrate, silence and sound and then when hitting the volume rockers you can adjust the sliders to control system, ringer and notification.
Any ideas on why I was able to control my ringer/notification volume via the rockers but now I cannot?
The volume settings are environment sensitive: if you're in a media app (includes all apps except dialler, ...) you get the media settings.
Homescreen should give you dialler. If not: are you using another launcher than stock?
You can set the other settings through the gear symbol in the on-screen volume display which pops up when pressing the volume rockers

Everything is stock on my phone. I've tried it within multiple different apps, and they all just allow for control of media volume, even the dialer.

Change music volume with buttons and switching last apps

Hey,
On CyanogenMod you can change that buttons change music volume not profile volume. Can I do it on stock? I have phone always on vibrations so with buttons I want to change music volume.

So if I ask about buttons. On CM there is else that long press on square button (next to home) switch last apps. Is it possible on stock?
You won't actually have those features on stock at all, but you can get skipping tracks via volume buttons using an app on Google Play. As for holding recents button to go to the last opened app, that would need CM. Our stock recent button uses menu when long pressed.
