I noticed that, when I listen to music and I leave the walkman app the sound will suddenly get louder when I open another app and decrease again after some time.
Seems to happen on every music app, I tried Apollo, walkman and Google music.
It's really annoying since it gets extremely loud and I have to adjust the volume all the time.
Is that normal? I haven't found any option for this.
If it is normal, US there anyway to turn this off?

Hi everybody,
I've disagreements with function of volume button in "normal mode".. because ring volume is absolutely useless for me.. I would like control media volume instead of ring volume in "normal mode".. Does anyone know how I can do that?
Thank you very much
PS: sorry for my EN
really nobody knows?
When media are being played, the volume keys adjust media volume,
so why would anyone need to adjust media volume without playing any already?

because..for example:
I'm browsing on internet and I want click on some video. But I remember in last time I was listening to music very loudly and I don't want loud video now.. the easiest way is click on video and after that pressing "-" volume button.. but phone takes time to know he is in "media mode", and begins reducing ring volume.. after that I want back my level of ring volume to max, but phone already increasing media volume => I am very angry!!
the same in games etc etc...
I don't want changing ring volume 10x a day (knowingly or UNINTENTIONALLY too) I don't need change it ever. I can recuce it in Settings, or completely in lock screen...
That's why...

Happens to me too, i use an app from the market called status bar shortcuts, so i pinned the volume settings right in the status bar so i can adjust the media volume quickly
You could try that

thank you mate, I know about this app but it still doesn't solve my problem... It will be a lot better to adjust something in system and change ring volume to media volume in function of volume button but I don't know where and how..

Since the ICS update, I've been having some issues with the built in music player.
First, playing music, when a notification is received and you have a notification sound set, music pauses, notification sound plays, then music plays at the notification sound level until you adjust the volume. Not sure if this is an ICS bug or HTC music player bug.
Second, playing music, when google navigation speaks a direction, the audio volume is not lowered and/or paused like on GB. Basically means you can't listen to music and navigate, as music drowns out any navigation directions.
Google play music does lower the volume properly when navigating, but it can't use the HTC SRS WOW filter or Beats filter. Same applies to any other third party app, so they aren't acceptable solutions. Generally, I prefer the HTC music UI anyways.
Anyone experiencing the same problems/have workarounds/etc?
I haven't tried this so I will see if it happens to mine. You could always try flashing the beats mod that allows beats to work with all apps. It would be a band aid in effect

I get the increased volume after a notification too. Not sure if there is a setting to block out notification sound when music is playing like in CM. Haven't really hunted around yet. As for the other issues I don't play music during navigation so don't know about that.
Its not a reset issue I believe its a flaw built into Sense. Probably a line of code written wrong for the notification volume while music is playing on HTC's music player. I believe other players have options to mute notifications sounds but I haven't checked to be sure.

Yes. Sort of took the ota while unlocked and totaled my install. So wiped everything quite a few times.
Re: disabling notification sound. I actually prefer to hear it; disabling it isn't a good solution. I suspect it's a bug in sense and/or the music player.
Flashing the beats mod would be no good as I only use beats when using headphones. I disable it when using speakers as it sounds like crap over them - the HTC SRS filter sounds better. It's my understanding that the beats mod is not easily disabled on the fly, either.

As a temporary solution I've set the volumes for notifiactions and ringtones to the same as media to see if that at least alleviates the problem of having to lower my sound volume when the mysic player is running. Now I just need to find a way to test it out.
Edit: It didn't work, I sent an email to myself from my pc while I was listening to music thru the phones headphones and the volume increased as usual. I went into settings and the notfications volume had actually increased on it own, its like it resets itself to some default voulme after a notification. The media volume I had set hadn't increased at all but the volume was definetly louder. Its as if the media volume switches to using that of the notification and ringtones setting.
I included some pics as to whats happening. Volume 1 is what I set before the notification was sent and volume 2 is where the settings were after a notification came in. However the phone doesn't appear to even be using these settings as the music is much louder than the settings in either photo.

Yeah, any sort of volume adjustment fixes the level, after the notification.
How to completely disable sound output of cell phone with press of a button, and re enable it just as easily when needed?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
You can either use the sound toggle or you can press volume down.
There is no hardware button in SGS3 like in iphone

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

Does anyone know of a Rom that includes or music player on the market that has the ability to change songs by holding the volume rocker? I listen to a lot of music on bluetooth speakers and don't want to take my phone out of my pocket everytime I want to skip a song.
Edit: If I am understanding my research correctly this is a framework change and not so much a music player design. I see it can be changed using xposed framework, however, I don't feel like changing over to xposed just for this feature. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I managed to increase it a bit from the the Sound Menu in Settings.
I used the Sound Enhancement and changed the equaliser sliders.
I also later install Player Pro and Poweramp. Both gave better and louder sound.
The equaliser had a preamp slider to increase
Fixed Xperia Z2 headphone volume -NO ROOT-
You can increase your headphone volume on xperia z2 dramatically,before i used this method my volume was constantly on 100% because it was too low,and now it's on 60% because it is too high and the best of all is that quality is untouched.This method is very easy...First of all download app called volume booster.Now your walkman settings should look like on the pics i uploaded before you start using the app (I hope they did im new on this site and im on my phone lol) ok so go to walkman/settings/ and do the SAME settings as i have on pics.When you'r done with that take your headphones plug them in play some song,go to volume booster and and move volume button in app from maximum to minimum and without releasing the button move it to the maximum(your button should barely touch the minimum sound so do it fast ---> From max to minimum without releasing than to the maximum and release button,you will hear sound like you do when you press volume up for call volume) if volume after that sound doesnt increase do it more times until the volume isn't VEEERY loud.I do it every time when listening to song it's not hard as it sound you will get used to it,it will pay off trust me Love my xperia z2 now ^^ (settings are in croatian but that isnt importnant just uncheck clear audio go to equaliser and max out evertything and turn on DSEEHX( CRUCIAL STEP)
Even simpler solution... Use viper4Android from here:good:
