Since updating to ICS, a feature I really miss from GB is the turn over to mute funtion for SMS. Sure it works for a phone call ringtone, but that's all. Even trying to turn volume down dooesn't work (by the time i've pressed the volume rocker enough times to change to silent, the tone has finished!)
Anyone got any other ideas on how to mute an SMS notification quickly?
Get a short SMS notification sound
Sorry couldn't help it. But as soon as I press my volume button the sound mutes. Only have to press it once.

I'm not sure if I'm acting handicapped here of if its the way Android was written, but my alerts for Text messages and Alarms are notoriously quiet.
I've ticked the box that says "Use incoming call volume for notifications" and then I set the incoming call volume to max. Then I unticked the volume and set each separate volume to max.
Either way, the notification volume is sooo silent that I literally have to look for the green flashing light on my phone to see if I even got a text.
And I almost missed the alarm this morning if I hadn't left vibrate on.

The x10 volume is really low sound. Its one of the only phones I have had that has such low volume. My sisters messaging phone lowest volume is louder than the x10 loudest. So you aren't the only one with the low volume complaint.

But, why is it specifically the notification volume? The incoming call volume is just fine.

I myself had to create my own ringtone with an app called ringdroid from the market from mp3 songs. The sound quality is better and louder.

is there a setting page for microphone on Amaze?
the microphone works for recording a video, not working when phone call, record a voice clip or voxer. actually on voxer, it is really low.
do I have a defective phone or some setting is not right.
stock rom, just updated to ICS, didn't really try before updates, just got the phone.
LMAO... There's a volume rocker on side of phone buddy... Prolly a broken device

Pretty much the only way I know to adjust volume for phone calls is with the rocker button on the side. So you need to be like on a call then press the rocker button and it should adjust the volume for phone calls. As far as voxer I've never used that app but know the concept maybe there's a volume setting within the app. But if you continue with these issues maybe try a factory reset and reinstall everything, or maybe you do have a defective phone.

There's also some volume control apps on the market free, maybe you could give those a try.

Does anyone else have the problem that if you have a text tone, email tone & phone ringtone, then try and Mute or put in Vibrate mode the S3, it only mutes the ringtone, both text messages and emails are still heard. Just found that out while in a meeting
Never experienced this before, any ideas?

No, this doesn't happen to me.. if I put the phone on silent everything goes silent.
Then if you open the volume control settings you can see that the icon for notification is crossed out to indicate silent.
Are you on a custom ROM? And how are you enabling silent mode?

I'm on Vodafone stock rom, I use the notification menu and selected Mute or Vibrate and text/email tones come through. I've even turned off the sound using the volume buttons, but these tones are still coming through.
When you go to volume settings do you are the icons crossed out when in silent mode?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA
I get either the icon mute or icon vibrate mode set in the notification bar area. I think I may end up trying a full reset and installing apps one at a time just in case one is conflicting.
One thing I have noticed is that if I use the volume rocker and turn it to mute, if you click the settings on the right of it, it shows all 3 volume settings and I think this is where it's not muting the other notifications
Is there a way to make the ringer and notification volumes to be linked together so they both change to when I use my volume buttons? The buttons only change the ringer volume and I want it to change both ringer and notification volumes together.
I tried Quick Settings from the Play store which I have used on other phones to "link" the volumes. But it doesn't do that on my SGS3. I have tried a couple other apps that say they do that, but again they don't link the volumes together on my SGS3. Anybody know how to do this?
Having trouble with AudioGuru (paid). It doesn't seem to effect the volume either. Alert function not adjusting the alert.
More details.
With the Alert Notification sound set in GoSMS, the phone Alert Notification sound is different. AudioGuru only shows the Phone Alert Notification sound not the GoSMS Alert Notification sound. When muting the AudioGuru 'Alert' only the Phone Alert Notification sounds is muted. The GoSMS Alert Notification sound is not effected thus not muted etc..
I hope we find a fix to this. I'll be checking back but I too would like both these sounds to be at the same level. Thinking I had my phone on silent and then getting slammed with a notifcation ring is not what I intended.
Wait.. they aren't pre linked?

I will be watching this thread too. I have tried many apps on the market that said it could link ringer and notification sounds, but none of them worked. Hopefully there is a workaround for this. When I turn my volume all the way down, I assume it will make no noise. Then I had my email sound go off at 3AM when I was sleeping. Not what I wanted at all. Many phones have this option in the sound settings, so I don't see why Samsung couldn't have put that in here.

^^^ This.
I've spent the last day un-TouchWiz'ing the phone as much as possible (replacing apps with AOSP ones, launcher with Trebuchet, etc) but this volume thing is driving me batty.
I have been able to get the ringer and officiating sounds to "link" using the Go Switch widget. It works all the time when you open the widget and check the box to link the two and adjust the volume while the widget is open but Ive also got it working otherwise but this is spotty.
Yes! i would love to have the 2 linked. When I first got the phone I couldnt figure out why the ringer was so low and the Notifications were so loud.
Hi,
I have a very annoying problem with my galaxy s 3. When I set it to silent mode, it only silents the ringtone. Everything else still has sounds on. For example mails and whatsapp sounds will not go on silent.
Vibrate works, but full silent mode doesnt work. I first noticed this when I changed my rom to wanamlite. Thought the problem was with the rom itself. But then decided to try vikingway rom. No change and I still have the same problem.
Can anybody help me?
Thank you.

Click the button that pops up when you click the volume buttons you can set all the volumes there.
There is some different sounds
Ringtones, notification, system, alarm, media and voice if I didn't miss something.
Silent mode only disable ringtones and notification, maybe some app is using media volume instead of notification.

Yes but silent mode wont even put my incoming message to silent. Very annoying. Any ideas how to fix this? Silent mode was working with original rom and with the first custom rom I flashed.
