When I press the volume buttons it plays a "beep" indicating every volume level.
In "resurrection remix" (what i have) there is no way to get rid of this beep, nor have I seen such an option when I had CM7, CM9 and some kind of GB. This is common to all roms, I believe.
A few searches for Apps to handle this issue came up short. I don't want to switch ROMs just for that.
Ideas?
Thanks in advance

Happened to me too,but it's not that annoying.
c'mon man, you can't say it's not a little annoying.
Just turn down the volume and you won't hear it
How is it annoying? It doesn't last that long and its only purpose is so you know how loud ringtones/notifications will be.

If you have root just goto /system/media/audio/ui and delete the sound file with root explorer.
Can't remember what the file name is called but it starts with TW_* if you play the file and listen you will know which one it is.
Make a backup if your paranoid.
I do that on every Rom I use and it causes me no problems.

I have root. there's no such file where you indicated.. Or anywhere near can you check the file name?

Hmm just had a look through an old cm9 zip and couldn't find any audio files for it either. The file I meant was for Samsung roms.
Maybe cm9 has them built in or in another location.
Can't do much at the moment as I am at work, but will have a better look when i get home later.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Just had a quick look and it might be part of cmparts. So might not be possible without recompiling cm9
Might be wrong here but I only had a quick look.

TW_Volume_Control
/system/media/audio/ui is the right path. the sound is calles TW_Volume_Control or something like that. you have too use a root-enabled filebrowser like root browser(avialable for free in the market). then just delete this file and you will hear no sound of your volume buttons any more

Hi all.
I noticed some weird "incoming call" volume behavior with my SGS2.
I set the volume to the highest. First 2 seconds when someone calls me, the ringer tone is very low, then it becomes very loud (to the setting I put it). I have a MP3 that has the same volume through out the whole song, but the first 2 seconds of the song are very low.
Does anyone know what this could be?
I'm running a unrooted KF3

It's the standard "increasing ringtone" behaviour. I know quite a few people don't like it (I do though) so there could well be a modified version floating about.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
It's called ascending ringtone and it is normal on the SGS2. You can flash a custom ROM that removes it or there might be a way to remove it on an unrooted phone.
Thank you guys for the quick and good response.
It's silly though to not have a option to turn this on/off in the "Sound" settings.
If anyone knows a way to turn this off without rooting or flashing a custom ROM, please let me know.
My I9100 is running the stock 4.0.3 ICS update that was installed via Kies. Everything I've read says that ICS links the ringer and notification volumes, but this has not been my experience.
My volume rocker only changes the ringer volume. I verified this by installing Persist Volume Control and watching as only the ringer volume changes.
Does anyone know what's wrong? This behavior seems different from everyone elses'.
Thanks!

As I always want to control the volume levels of each media type separately, I am happy that the ringer and notification volume level are not linked.
But I am using Elixir Widget app from the Play store to change the volume levels and save my volume profile(s).
Usually, I do not change the volume level by the volume key.

Does it matter? Is this not core functionality that should be found in all flavors of ICS? No matter how bastardized by the OEM?
Either way, in the Google link one person does mention their SGS2.
Is my research wrong and are these indeed not supposed to be linked?
So... nobody knows?

exactly the same problem. They're obviously supposed to be linked because every single google result except this one is ICS users trying to separate the link complaining they want that feature back
Attached a screenie of my offical O2 kies-updated ICS 4.0.3 volume screen, showing they're not linked...
constantly missing texts because i just use the volume rocker to turn up my phone forgetting it doesnt turn up notifications like Gingerbread used to

Glad I'm not alone... but maybe us 2 are?
GB I have the option to link or keep separate.
I personally prefer separate control over these settings.
Why would you wish to permanently link them?
Could you not simply just set these values where you wish them individually and be satisfied?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
How hard is it to turn one or both up or down. Custom settings are what makes a phone individual.Personally i like the idea they are not linked. My ringer can be turn full on or off and my notifications to just a whisper...Perfect.

If I want my ringer to be quiet, I want my notifications to also be quiet. I should be able to do this via the volume rocker, like I can on my One X, and used to be able to do prior to my I9100's ICS update.

It's quite a nuisance if I want them to be adjusted concurrently.
I've read that ICS is supposed to force (or give the option of) linking, which is the point of my thread. Is this only the case for every phone except the I9100?
nice thanks so much

Its not a custom setting, this is supposed to be stock ICS, i certainly wouldnt have chose to have this crap feature.
It now takes 4 presses to get to the menu every time you wander into a quiet situation, and then another 4 when you leave it (not including actually moving the volume sliders).
I personally find that very annoying when there's a volume control on the side of my phone.
Use CM9. Has ability to link ringtone & notification volumes.
Is there a way to implement this on stock Samsung ICS (Touchwiz)? Tried quick settings but the option is greyed out.
Thanks

I've had this issue too. Thought the volume buttons should control both ringer and notifications but they didnt. Im running Caulkin's ICS rom too so that may have something to do with it. Regardless, after MUCH searching and downloading of apps that I thought would do this but they didn't, I finally found an app that did this for me! Quick Settings by Halfbit - note that there are two apps by different developers called the same thing. I didn't try the other one but this one worked.
Strange though, the selection to link the notification and ringer volumes is checked, but grayed out. So guess you have to uninstall the app to change this configuration..

Apparently not. Stock/ota ics for droid4 also removes the checkbox to allow you to link the volumes if you want to. I want to link them as well so when i turn it down at a meeting, i don't get blown out of my chair when i get a text.
Setting everything once and forgetting it doesn't work for a lot of people. For me, i need it quiet at work, then loud while not at work so i can hear ringer/sms sounds over road noise/music while driving, or if i leave my phone upstairs at home. I use moto's smart actions to handle the volume changing automatically (think of it as a gimped version of tasker) but now that ringtone and notification vol are no longer linkable, and smart actions can't control notification volume, i consider it to be broken. It turns down ringer vol just fine, but notifications are still crazy loud. Very annoying. Can't wait for cm9 (or even 10) for the droid4!
Just wondering if there's a way to change songs using the headphones you get with the s3? Or if there's an app that let's you do it?
Thanks!

if you got original headphone, then you'll find that there's 3 button..
volume up, volume down, then the "other button"..
if you press the "other button" once, the music will paused or started..
Just make sure u pressed it twice to change the song..
Check out Jays Headset Control in the Play Store.
Its meant for single button configurations, but it works perfect to with my 2 (or 3) button configuration S3 supplied earphones
(edit) note that stock works too. but the app gives more options like prev track
Ahhhh thanks guys!

I couldn't get any of the marketplace apps to override the headset +/- buttons from acting as volume buttons, but have now worked out how to simply remap them to act as track controls, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28752382#post28752382

Thanks for answer me but, is not working, I did everything you say in that post, but I can`t make them work I see the whole Generic.kl from my original stock rom that doesn`t have problems changing to the next track o pause etc., and it is the same Generic.kl, I don`t know what is happening, is a really weird issue.
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT SINCE THE PHONE CAME OUT, EVER SINCE I ROOTED IT, THE SYSTEM VOLUME, THE MEDIA VOLUME, AND ESPECIALLY THE VOICE CALL VOLUME CHANGE ON THEIR OWN!
the voice call volume is just set to full blast every time i make or receive a phone call, no matter how many times i set it lower
the system volume changes randomly, along with the media, which isn't THAT big of a deal, but still, wtf?
i've been through two different phones, restarted, cleared caches, switched roms, downloaded audio managers, removed audio managers, I CAN'T FIGURE THIS **** OUT, SOMEBODY HELP PLEASE!
What rom are you on currently? Does it have the quick settings in the status bar?
Every rom I've been on with the quick settings had the volume setting in there. I would occasionally use that to set the volume, and didn't initially realize that if you tap the icon for the volume it changed the volume type. I kept accidentally only changing media volume instead of ringer volume for instance, bc I saw it say "Ringer" once and didn't bother actually reading how it was labeled after that.
So before I realized it, I would have been describing the same issue you described, although yours sounds more serious.

right now i have the Viper4g rom, i had the charmeleon rom before that, and the regular viper rom before that, and stock rooted before that, ever since i rooted it it's been doing this no matter how many times i restarted and wiped the phone, even after i got a new phone
Same route I've taken, except now on flex's stock w/ goodies. All have that same volume shortcut in the status bar quick settings, which was initially causing my problems, only bc I didn't realize what I was doing.
Try flex's Rom, or mean Rom. The viper, charmeleon, venom are all pretty closely related, maybe it's something that's carried over?
Do you do cache and system wipes each time?

you have a widget "turn off all sounds." that should help.
Unfortunately the samsung widget isn't an option. And turning down just volume of sounds the "normal" way doesn't cut it: some apps (system apps i think) can override sound settings and play at any most unfomfortable times.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
As I answered you in your identical other thread try Tasker sound options.
Could you be more specific and let us know what apps?
just as an example that might be not useful at all for you but might guide you in the correct direction: I use tasker to switch my phone & tablet during work in vibration mode and no app is able to break it, even system apps like the dialer or battery low signal sounds.
Sent from my Nexus 7 (2013)
I believe the apps that can brake the silence are for example the caller app and other little sounds that are automated when doing some things in rom, for example the sound when focusing camera i believe or maybe the screenshot sound. I know these can be disabled manually, and i have, but i never want to incur into unpleasant surprises, and that widget does all i need. Furthermore i did try your tasker solution yesterda applying ALL sound settings allowed within the tasker settings i could, but none of them did what i wanted. The samsung system widget "turn off all sounds" completely disables sound output and when trying to press volume buttons the volume isn't allowed to shift. this is important because even if i applied a simple way to shut off all sounds (for example most mute apps on play store or tasker actions on sound) some apps can still modify sound themselves....and this does lead to - unpleasant surprises!
This is what samsung's widget avoids perfectly, this is what i'm looking for.
Hope to have straightened things up in this thread, even though i doubt anyone has the answer i'm looking for.

thanks, much clearer now to understand. somehow I fear that there are not a lot of options to achieve this though.
I just tried on my phone the screenshot function though, in vibrate more there is no sound to hear, also camera shutter sounds is off. maybe it is related more to the rom itself?
I dunno....there are other sounds i can't really remember, but what im interested is still a complete all sound output disable solution (not individual-problem one). Anyways thank you for your help
