[Q] S3 Sound Mode Issues - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey I am having some major sound issues with my device. The only changes I have made are rooting it. Sound modes seem to have no effect on volume sliders. When the volume is on and if I go to vibrate mode or silent mode, nothing happens. All the volume stays on and will continue. I tried bypassing the issue by installing volume control + with no results. Volume sliders were not changed by the app either. Anyone else have this issue, any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks
Update: Resolved, there was something wrong with the root package I used the first time. I used a new one and all is good.

Afaik 'silent' only applies to alerts and notifications such as the phone ringing on incoming calls. It does not apply to the multimedia volume.

The issue includes notifications and ringtone. They both continue to play at normal volumes in silent and vibrate mode.

Changing to cyanogenmod fixed this issue for me.

Which option in sound increases voicetalk volume?

Hi everyone,
Just wondering which sound setting controls volume for voice talk notification? When I do driving mode and a call is incoming, the volume is really low. I set my ringer volume on the lowest (one bar up from vibrate mode). I'm guessing this is it... but can anyone verify?
I'm at work now so didn't want to disrupt people by my phone going off figuring this out.
Thanks!

vibration-mode doesn't mute notification sound

when I put my SGS3 in vibration-mode than the ring tone is muted, new calls will only be notified by vibration. o.k. so long... BUT: incoming text-messages are further notified by the notification sound!!! can someone confirm this issue? if yes that must be a bug! - every phone I owned in the last 15 years (and I'd a lot different types from different manufacturers) switched all sounds (notification, ring-tone and so on...) off in vibration mode! annoying... cheers Gerald
up - can really nobody confirm this bug?

Sent myself a text message in vibrate mode and it didn't make any notification sound. Did you drop down the drawer and use that icon to put it in vibrate? That's what I did.
Hope that helps!

that's exactly what I did, too! and vibration mode does not mute the notification sound, only the ring tone!
I found the solution!!! this was an issue of the tool "Volume Manager Free". Obviously this tool does any changes in the config of the "audio streams", and since I configured the audio streams inside the volume manager free (so that the ring-stream does also mute the notifcation stream, alarm stream...) - there is such an option in the settings of volume managaer free to configure that - all works fine! when I now put the phone in vibration mode, I can see that notifications are also muted, volume manager shows "notification muted by rington audio stream".... cheers Gerald

Mute/Vibrate problems

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?

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

[Q] Can you change the default In-Call Volume?

Every time I call someone or someone calls me, the In-Call volume is on max. I will change it during the call to about halfway with the volume rocker on the side. Then if someone calls me again, say an hour later, the In-Call volume is again on max. It's very frustrating because it's a little too loud for me. Any way to change this? Or at least have the change during one call to persist through future calls?
Try adjusting the call volume in the settings then reboot and see what happens.

there doesn't seem to be a call volume setting there. if i go to Settings->Sound->Volumes, there is only volumes for Media, Ringtone, Alarms. is there something i'm missing?
Try 2D Volume
you can change all of your android volume by this app:
2D Volume
with this app you can change all of volume everywhere, specially voice volume, Hope this is helping

Question Realme GT 5G Ringtone Volume problem

I have a problem in the form of the ringtone volume, namely setting my own sound mp3 (music)
The phone sees the sound settings as a ringtone, but does not really respond to its volume in the ringing mode, only in the notification mode. In so describing, it simply does not work to adjust the ringer volume on its own on a custom setting.
Maybe someone had such a problem
P.S All phone system resets system settings checked
Same problem here, with default ones there's no issue.
