[Q] Different volumesettings in different apps? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody!
I really wonder how you guys use your phone in the car for navigation and as a musicplayer?
I use Navigon and the standart music app. The problem is that the music app is at least the same volumelevel as the navigation or even louder.
In my opinion we should be able to set the volume for each app individually but so far i have no idea how to get that done?
The only solution so far is for some music apps that they would mute the music if somthing else (like the navigation) plays sounds. But i think all apps capable to do that aren't free.
So i really like to hear your solutions
Cheers

[Q] Bluetooth headset controls

Only reason i didn't put this in the themes apps section is that it could be a mod as well. What i'm looking for or hoping to have either an app or option in tsm settings for example to set the controls for bluetooth devices.
I currently use a a2dp headset for listening to music, podcast ect. On the bluetooth device there are play, pause, forward, back controls as common on most. My issue is setting which app is to be associated with those controls. Of course some apps have this as a setting to enable this or not. However some do not and sometimes an app gets control that you did not wish.
The most convenient solution seems to me would be to have a menu or app independent of said music/podcast apps that a user to point the controls to the app of choice. This would eliminate the need to go through the settings in each app as well as help with those apps that have no setting for this.
Now seeing how this seems like it would be a fairly common request i would imagine there is already a solution for this. However i have yet to find it.
Would appreciate any assistance
Thanks
Dang, am I the only one with this headache?

[Q] MIUI rom with CM/AOSP music app?

Hi,
I'm currently using CM7 and am wanting to move to MIUI but there are a couple of issues with the music player app which are stopping me. I connect my phone to my car stereo through bluetooth and it doesn't show the track metadata on my car stereo like in CM7. It also doesn't pick up the playlists I have on there and it seems to behave strangely with the scanning of my music folder.
Is there a way to get the music app from CM7 working on MIUI? I've tried installing it but it just FCs on launch.
Thanks in advance.

Well you could try PlayerPro. I like the MIUI music app.
As far as I'm aware, PlayerPro doesn't have avrcp 1.3.
Oh yeah... my bad. Skim read your stereo part.
Any other ideas?

[Q] Google Navigation muting streaming apps

Hi guys,
I'm new to the Android platform, I have a noobish question:
I use a couple of music/video streaming 3rd party apps while driving, anyone know if it's possible to have the Google Navigation mute the audio of the streaming app when it needs to give voice directions, and then unmute when the voice directions are done?
Right now, if I have both Navigation and audio streaming going at the same time, the Navigation directions are barely audible over the music that is playing.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
My T-Bolt already does this. I'm just using Sense 2.1 over GB. I was using Pandora and it works great. I just tried it. Sorry if you're having a problem. It could be poor coding of the program but I think it strange that your phone would do that. So I think it's weird that your phone doesn't do this. You'd have to get the attention of a dev probably and they are going to want more information like what specific apps you are using. Is it all 3rd party apps or just one in particular. I'm willing to see if i can duplicate your results if you let me know what 3rd party app it is and I don't have to pay anything to help you fix your problem. Cause..well...I'm cheap.

[Q] Force certain sound types through specific channels

Is there an App for the Rezound (I am on Scott's CleanROM 4.0) that can force certain sounds to play through certain devices?
I miss this feature in CyanogenMod 7.1 - I would like to force notifications to play on the phone speaker instead of headphone or bluetooth. It's really annoying to have my music playback spoiled by notification sounds!
In CM7, you could specify which types of sounds play on what device, and I got it to where only navigation and music (I drive rental cars a lot) would play over headphone/bluetooth while all other sounds would come through the phone speaker.
EDIT: Sorry for posting this question in the wrong forum, please feel free to move it to General!

Notification sounds in Android

Hello,
I am not a developer but this is a feature I believe would be nice to implement and haven't seen in custom roms I have tried. One of my biggest annoyances with android are the notification sounds. If I'm listening to music, I would still like the sound to play, but not completely drown out my music in the process.
Ideally the notification sound should play at a lower volume (say %25) over my music.
I would like to bump this thread. I'm looking for a way to set myself up with what OP has asked for and hoping someone out there knows of something.
I know I used to have this functionality on at least one Rom of CM7 I ran on previous phone (Mytouch 3G slide).
Being able to play notifications over music without pausing it would be good, better still would be the option to make the notification quieter, or the music quieter. Anything would be better than pausing the music for the notification!
There could be a way to force sound ducking when you get a notification, instead of pausing whatever media is playing. That would most likely need to be a ROM tweak though, might help ask a developer for your phone.
