[Q] Volume Button/ Power Button - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey
Just wondering if it is possible to deactivate the annoying beep sound when changing the VolumeSound Level.
I can't find any data in the system/media/ui folder affecting this sound.
Also i would like to deactivate the PowerButton in the Lockscreen due to unlocking my phone with the home button.
I hope anybody of you can help me with these problems.
I have the international version of the SGS3 without LTE. Im currently running CM10 Nightlies (11/25/12)
Have a nice day

Nobody here who can help me?

Adjusting call volume problem

Hi guys,
anyone else having problems with adjusting the call volume (while in a call) ?
The screen obviously turns black while in a call, and then, the volume buttons don't work for me...
I have to move the phone from my ear, screen turns on, adjust volume.
This drives me nuts !
Any help is much appreciated.
Yep just noticed this today when I was on a call. Seems strange that you can't do that but you can change the volume of music when the screen is locked?
same thing here. hope they fix it

Correct, it does work for music, I have noticed that as well...
What's up with that ?! Isn't it like the very first thing you should check before releasing a phone to the market ?? Even if it's software related (and it is, in this case) at least the Vendors should test this.
And, I know what I am talking about
I guess that with all the technology, it is forgotten, that above all, well... this is a PHONE.
Hope the fix it.
Ive also noticed that you cant adjust the volume when the screen is locked.
AND every call i make/receive the volume is always at the max and extremely loud. So i have to right away turn it down. That happen for anyone else?

[Q] volume Button

hi guys,
i love the samsung galaxy s2 phone, but i have a question.
Whilst using the phone, i end up accidently pressing the volume button and this can sometimes mean i put the "Notification" or "Ringer" volume really down.
I only want to be able to control such options by actually going into the Settings menu, so is there a way to disable this button or somehow change it's functionality?
BUMP!
Surely someone must have the answer?

I guess so nyssa, but many also still have their mobiles, watching this forum and are still replying to many questions on this forum.
Hey there. Have you even tried searching in the market? The very first app for "volume" query can do just that
Sent from outer space by aliens on tapatalk using SGS2
thanks aj rockwell. That app i believe only helps you adjust settings with volume. I actually want to Remap buttons, so that the volume button cannot adjust sounds other than "IN-CALL volume"
this is so annoying, I was going to open a thread with the some issue. Is any chanse,mod which can switch a default option when we press volume from ringer volume to media volume. many times by incident I turn ringer volume down and I dont hear a ringer.
@ x7 - Halleluyah! At last i find someone who has exactly the issue as myself.
Guys, all i want is some app that can disable the volume button from controlling the MEDIA's/NOTIFICATION's volume. The only way i want to control these is by actually going to SETTINGS>SOUND ...surely there must be an app that can REMAP the Volume key functions?
I agree, why Samsung did this think That you can change volume ringer by pressing a volumes button? This is so silly

the only thing we can do x7 is hope that someone on here will know a fix for this volume issue.
I took a look in android market but I havent found anythink
I checked too, but could not find anything. The only one i have seen whilst searching on google, is Button Remapper. But there is no information to say that this app is safe for the SGS2.
Anyone? Help!
x7nofate mate, pls ignore the replies. I feel like such a twat now . It looks like AJ.Rockwell was right...i never properly tried the recommended app and was too quick to ignore it's features.
Download "Volume Control +" from android market and install it.
Once installed, set the volume for all the media/ring/notifications. Then simply goto the options where it allows you to lock each individual type of tone. So for example if you don't want to decrease your ringtone volume by accident, then select that.
Save your settings and you should have a little lock icon in your status bar.
Now when you put your volume for your ringtone down, it looks like its gone down again, right???? WRONG! Since Volume Control+ has locked it down, VC+ automatically forces it back to the "locked" settings. Genius!
Let me know how you get on mate!
PS: If you need any help or just wanna chat android, then PM me ur email and i'll add you to msn/yahoo/skype or whatever you use.
I installed a "Volume Control +" ages ago and I locked in settings but I can put my volume ringtone down anyway so I thought that it doesn't work but I was wrong. It works, thank you very much
Bump! I searched XDA on Google for this exact thread, my problem too. My question is, with that apps reccommendation (thanks for that), does it still bring up the volume OSD? That's my major annoyance, and something that happens to people whenever I pass my phone over to them.

I changed my phone recently, I'm on 4.2.2 and volume control+ doesn't work. Does anyone know other apk what does exactly the some job like volume control+?

[Q] ringer volume automatically lowering itself

I have my ringer volume on high and in a matter of a minute the phone automatically moves the ring volume very low. I'm missing allot of calls because of it and I can't figure out why it's doing this.. I had the same problem on my captivate and fixed it by installing volume locker, but I want to know how to stop the problem the right way instead of having to mess with a app to stop it. I searched the forums and turned off the flip upside down to mute feature, but that didn't help..and I seen a bunch of other volume issues but not quite like this one. Thanks for the help in advance.
have the same issue on a international Galaxy Note from Asia
Hey,
I have a international Asian' based Galaxy note that was working fine on the older build of the software i bought back in Nov. I updated my software to 2.36 and the volume issue is a pain in the ass. It doesn't matter if your in Edge Mode or 3G mode.
I find it is not as annoying if you have your headset plugged in but as a stand alone or with speaker phone it is very irritating.
I personally think it is a Software issue either from the Sense UI or Google. I know that ICS Ice Cream Sandwich is coming out here soon so hopefully that may fix it.
good luck.

Thanks!

Waking Up HOX+ with the Volume Rocker.

Hello All,
My HOX+ 's Power button is not working properly .. it takes a thousand taps to wake the beast. I This phone is running a STOCK unrooted ROM,
I was wandering is there a way to wake it up using the Volume Rocker.. More over any ideas on what might have made the power button unresponsive? or is there a cure to that ?
Please Help
What about apps "tap to unlock"?
I think your best option might be to root your phone and install a custom rom. InsertCoin 5.0-6 is an excellent stable rom that supports sweep to wake and volume rocker to wake.
Best of luck.
