So i use ribgdroid to cut my mp3s to use them as a ribg tone. Only problem is, when someone calls me it rings really quiet for 1 second then goes to a normal volume. Am i doing something erong? I am saving them as ring tones, i dobt see the problem. Regular vibrant tmobile ringtones work jusr fine
Have you tried playing the MP3 on a different device?

That is a standard samsung thing. It happens on all(most?) samsung phones. I believe there was a thread for a "fix" for it in either the vibrant or i9000 area... i dont remember but it makes it so it has the one volume level when the phone rings.
It's a feature. A very annoying feature.

Hi guys, can you check this out?
When I run skype on my 2.3.5 I3 firmware, it completely mutes all sounds other then skype, like ringtone, alarms, notifications etc. This is also valid, when you exit Skype!
In practice it means, that when I ran skype yesterday evening and turned it off before going to sleep, my alarm did not wake me up to work... I mean it did, but I could hardly hear it...
I hear no sms messages notifications, no phone call tones - nothing.
What I have to do is reboot the phone or kill all background processes and turn the volume down and up - then it resets itself to the proper previous values.
Thanks.
Hmm. I've noticed something similar where after using either music player or scanner radio it looses all notifications. I had also thought it was something to do with the headphones cause they make my phone unresponsive sometimes and I need to unplugged and replug to get sounds. Do the notifications come through the headphones after the Skype thing? Do you use headphones with Skype?
I had concluded myself its something to do with the headphones being faulty until I tried a few different pairs with the same result so its back to the drawing board huh. I'm about to root and flash something new to see if the problem follows too. Will help narrow it down a fair bit or atleast send me in the correct direction.

No, it has nothing to do with headphones.
Headphones don't work with skype or any other multimedia app anyway, I mean the speakers do, however microphone does not work on the headphones (bluetooth ones as well as the ones on cable).
You just run skype and then you notice, that all sound is muted, that is it
Weird. I'm a little unimpressed with my 9100. Its buggy as hell, crap battery and is the redhead step child of the S2 series... meh. I'm back on my galaxy tab and I gave away the 9100t . T is for Terrible trash IMO so i even made sure it didn't go to anyone I actually liked... Epic Fail Samsung. Worse than stock Galaxy tab.....

Hey guys I tried searching for this topic in the forum but didnt find anything. On my note there are some times when the sound will come out through the earpiece instead of the back speaker. This happens randomly and the only way to fix it is to restart the phone then i get sound through back speaker again. Anyone have this issue? I'm running stock phone, the only thing i have ADW Ex. I dont have blue tooth enabled either.
Thanks for the help
There are at least two other threads about this ...in q&a I believe
Both our skyrocket and note behave this way:
When headphones in system notification is played on headphones and ext speaker
Ringtones are played over headphones only. We were using the video ringtone app though. Will test with system ringtones tonight
So far it seems to depend on what is playing the notification

Anyone able to create a profile to solve the issue we have with our note. The issue is the following,
If headphones are plugged in and we get an incoming call, the ringtone will play on both speaker and headphones.
If headphones are plugged in and we get a notification, the sound will only play through speaker.
I tried to do a basic script that has headphones plugged in and incoming call for context, then set ringer volume to 0 and play music ringtone.mp3. Add exit task to for the opposite, raise ringer volume, stop music.
The problem is, it worked, if I didn't have music playing already when I get an incoming call, which is the whole reason why I would have headphones plugged in to begin with. The task successfully sets the ringer volume to 0 so at least it didn't play on the speaker, but then nothing would play on the headphones, and the music I was playing would pause (like it's supposed to), but the ringtone I specified didn't play. Ending the call resumes the music I was playing.
Anyone willing to shed some insight on this?
This issue is next on my list. I believe it is an issue with how the phone distinguishes what the sound is. ..phone vs media...hard to explain

that does look like what i want, but i'll have to get home before I can test it.
btw, where are the notification sounds stored? the ones that came with the phone.
System.media.audio

just tested, did not work, or maybe i did something wrong.
anyone willing to give the script a try and see if it works, or I just did something wrong.
I'll try tonight
My Moto E (Tracfone) worked fine for many months. Now, I hear nothing during calls. When put into speakerphone mode, all is well. Also, plugging in earbuds works well. I do get normal volume from message alerts, ring tone, etc.
Perhaps another app has disabled audio for the "normal" (non speakerphone) case? How to identify the culprit?

I seem to be having a similar problem, though it came with a brand new phone. I simply cannot hear anything during some calls. I have to call back, sometimes even a couple of times, to make it work.
This is basically a more elaborate "Bump!"
Sometimes people can't hear me so I put it on speaker phone and turn down the volume.

It doesn't help me know what to do, but I wonder if this is a proximity detector issue?

Friends, how to decrease the volume of notifications and not decrease the volume of phone calls?? If I try to decrease the sound of the notifications of any app The sound of the calls also decreases, it looks like they are hitched
What phone do you got? On my Mate 10 Lite I have 4 channels. Ringtone, Media, Alarm and Calls

That is not what he is asking. Media is for movies and songs. Alarm is self explanatory. Calls is the volume of the voice of the person on the other end of a phone call, whether you initiated the call or not. Ringtone, is the volume of whatever you choose to hear when a call comes in...but this is also the volume of the notification tones you choose to hear when a text, or an email arrives.
The linking of these two volumes has been a major pain for some years now. This is an Android thing. My ZTE Axon 7 has them unlinked but ZTE did it so I know it can be done. However, nearly all other OEM's do NOT do this but leave it at the default. There are 3rd party apps in the Play Store that claim to do this but NONE of the ones I tried actually work!
What I did is create a notification tone at half volume. That way I can leave the ringtone volume at a higher level and the notification still comes through not as loud! Major pain, but it works.

But why would you want to have the notifications and call volume split? Just curious.

The issue is that in general, if you use built in ringtones, they are generally pleasant little songs that play when someone is trying to call you. Today, though, most people do not talk on their "phones" but rather send and receive texts and emails. However, the built in tones for notifications are usually very short and more harsh in their tone in order to get your attention, not to mention they are played much more often than a true ringtone. Therefore, many people want the volume of their notifications to be lower, less obtrusive, than their ringtone. But the wisdom of the people at Google decided that we want them both to be the same volume all the time, which is simply not true. Thus, my solution.

Perfect, that's exactly what I meant, on the Samsung S7 / S8 we can separate the volume. I find that very inconvenient.
+1 missing split volume ring/notification
Any solution?
