Is there a way to keep the startup sound while having system sounds still disabled? Normally, when you turn off system sound, which is all the little clicks when you push buttons, it turns off the startup and shutdown sounds as well.
Just curious why u want to keep those annoying tmobile sound...
You could theorhetically use Taker to keep the volume on high so it will play the sounds and then set it to instantly mute the phone. That would work, but if you don't already have Tasker I don't see an easy way to do it.
I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes

I don't have the default sounds, I'm using the bionix rom, which has its own startup and shutdown sounds

the I9300, and yeah I have set it up in sound settings but the physical buttons "got higher priority" than the settings (or something like that)
so if I set the ringtone sound under settings to 50% I can still control it (permanently) freely with the buttons

It looks like your device is not locking properly. The volume keys should be disabled when the phone is locked.
Try decreasing the auto-lock timeout or manually lock the device before putting it in your pocket.

Hey guys, i'm kinda new here so, I hope i'm posting in the correct thread. I hope someone here can help me out with my problem though.
Anyways, whenever i'm listening to music, and I press the play/pause button on my headset to control my music tracks, my phone turns on. This get's really annoying because every time my phone turns on, it stays on for a few seconds, and this really kills battery life. I've tried lurking around my phone's settings and even my launcher settings, but i can't find a way to fix this.
My phone is a rooted HTC Wildfire S running AOKP custom rom with Nova Launcher Prime. And if it makes any difference, I'm using the "Start" lock screen from the Play Store.
Thanks guys!:good:

This isn't a native feature so the first thing to do is to check the settings of your rom and Start app. Normally there's an option you have enabled.
Do u use an app to control your headset buttons? There's maybe an option that turns on your screen while pressing the buttons.

I triple checked Start app settings as well as rom control settings. There's nothing there that seems to be the problem. I don't have an app to control my headset buttons either. I can't think of anything that must be causing this issue.

No, i don't think I use active display or lockscreen notifications. When my screen turns on, i don't see any notifications or anything related to the music player. It just turns on regularly as if I were to press the power button to turn it on.

Is there a way to turn down the ringtone AND notification volume at the same time? I despise the fact that I have to turn down both volumes separately in the settings when I get to the office....I'm beyond frustrated at such a simple thing.
Every other phone I've ever had, you simply use the volume rocker to lower the ringtone and the notification volume at the same time.
Nobody else finds this frustrating...or has a workaround?
May I suggest using Tasker which would not only take care of both volumes but also do it automatically for you once you get to work (based on GPS location or WiFi network)?

Sorry, I just leave all of my phones on vibrate only 24-7.

I'm the exact opposite. In fact, the main reason I returned the G4 is because it linked the notifications with ringtone volume.

Why not use the smart settings or tasked to do this automatically?
Its funny that the opposite of this (the volumes linked) was one of the big UI complaints with the G4.
Proof that you're damned if you do damned if you don't. Someone's always not going to be happy no matter what.

it's not JUST work where I'd like to be able to quickly turn down notifications and ringtones....... in what instance does someone want notifications volume up and ringtone down...or vice versa? if you lower one, you'll want to lower the other. seems really silly not to link them.

why would you ever want them unlinked? when would you have the ringtone or notifications louder than the other?

again, it's not OLNLY work where I'd like to have quick control of turning both down
I understand your desire, but you also question why would you want them unlinked.
Me personally, I have a ringtone that is much more aggressive than my notification tone. I usually have them set at their own levels, and when I do want to turn them down, I am usually going for silent so I just use the mute to vibrate toggle. I would never want them linked, and would rather a vendor error on the side of giving me options rather than lumping it all in one basket.
I just did a quick search for an app to do what you ask. I haven't tried it, but you could give it a go: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.marextafl.mx.simplevolume&hl=en
Good luck on your hunt.
Since you asked...
I have particularly loud notification sound. Normally it's a good thing since I don't receive that many notifications. However, there are times when I'm out and about and doing some heavier than normal texting or someone includes me in a group text including my mother, 2 sisters and niece.
That's way too much and I immediately turn down my notification volume in that situation.
I wouldn't want to turn everything down and risk missing a call. Just notifications so that everyone around me doesn't stop and give me the stink eye because my phone is going off like crazy. (with the 1up mushroom sound from Super Mario Bros.)
I definitely prefer them to be controlled separately. Having a "main control" that brings down all volumes at the same time is also handy to have but if I had to pick one or the other I'd choose the individual controls.

Ya I like them unlinked too. I get lots and lots of notifications and sometimes I just want them on vibrate while I still want to hear when I get a call. I do this at work all the time.
fair enough.... to each their own I guess
Wait. On the second screen when the main screen is off you can slide from right to left and there's a speaker icon. Tap it to set the phone to vibrate, silent or on. Also, you can set the volume slider in the pull down notification panel. When this is there you can tap the equalizer icon all the way to the right and adjust the ringtone and notification volumes separately.

this isn't just about turning it from speaker on, to vibrate...... this is about lowering both volumes together at the same time
Well. Sometimes I like my call volume higher than my notifications. This is also not a V10 issue. I believe that this is the way Android itself handles the volume controls. The only device I know of that has one volume for all sounds is Apple's iPhone.
Sent from my VS990 using Tapatalk
Some older android phones had them stuck together... it may of been an OS thing or a manufacture thing. I do know at one point they had a checkbox to unlink them, and man was that a good day.
God damnit. I'm so sick of having my phone on vibrate (most of the time because I'm at work) and then clicking on a facebook video or opening an app that has music/videos in it, and sound come blaring out of the phone in the office even on vibrate. Please tell me someone has figured out how to make the V10's "Vibrate" mode truly vibrate only as in NO sound plays from any app on the phone without having to open the app and then manually turn the volume down...
Thanks
Can't help you there. I don't think there's a completely silent option. Best way is to just set to vibrate, tap on the settings icon next to the volume slider, and just turn the last one all the way down. If I remember correctly, the marshmallow update should fix that issue.

Hi, Notifications change ; All/Priority/None

Hi everyone,
I'm a bit more than a week in with the Pixel 6, coming from a phone that has an actual hardware ring/vibrate/silent switch. I miss that switch dearly.
Is there a fast way to silence the Pixel 6? I'm aware you can press the volume key, then choose the "silent" icon, but that takes some time/fiddling, and it DOESN'T SILENCE THE PHONE. Only silences notifications/rings. My old phone when silenced also silenced media, everything except alarms.
Invariably I'm doing something at the table or whatever and an ad comes on at volume. Sure, I can hold the volume down key, but it takes a bit for that to gradually silence the media.
What I want is to be able to double tap the volume control or something similarly fast and have it instantly silence everything (except alarms), similar to how the physical sound off switch worked on my OP6T.
Is there a solution for this? I'm fully stock, not rooted, not planning to root.

There are times I feel I should have grabbed an 8T for $400, but i wanted for once to experience a pure google phone. I knew it was going to be thick and heavy when I bought it but I didn't realize how much I would miss that switch.
That said, I'm enjoying the Pixel otherwise, and am pretty settled in with it. I've made the transition and don't plan to send mine back. This is a pretty nice phone!

Settings > System > Rules. Enable and use the "silence phone" rule. It's location-dependant so there is no toggle like what you are used to.
EDIT: For finer control than what Google provides, Tasker or a similar app should work for you.

Hmm. I'm not sure I understand how this is supposed to work. I don't want the rule to start when I reach a location or connect to a network, I just want to be able to quickly tell the phone to silence all sounds (other than alarms of course) at specific times like if I see an ad loading up. And I would want to be able to undo the silencing quickly too.
I went into the rules and tried enabling, but it's all about doing things when I reach a location/wifi spot.
I did double check my gesture settings, to make sure the Flip to Shhh was on... it is... I Think the shushing just applies to notifications and ringing, not media (ad sounds are controlled via media sound level).
Use button Mapper by flar2 and map long press volume as you wish. That's what I've done coming from op6t

I'm breathing a huge sigh of relief. I set mine so a single tap of the volume down mutes the media volume. Problem solved! And I like the option to disregard button mapper when the volume control is being used manually.
OK now! My biggest beef with this phone now fades into the sunset.
My initial reason to install was torch which I've mapped to volume down. Great app and @flar2 is a member on here so give him a thumbs up
