[Q] Ring and Notification Volume? - AT&T LG Optimus G

Anybody know of a way to make the notification volume go up and down simultaneously with the ringtone volume? I have not been able to find a way to do this yet!

Same here, my old phone had this, I miss this option.
To have the ring volume control the notification volume.

Same here as well

For now I have had to use something like this:

There is a setting in the app that let's you link the ring and notification volume.
It works... sometimes.
Maybe I don't understand the app fully, but it seems unreliable. The widget to get into volume settings is nice though.

Just seems so trivial. Never had a phone that couldn't do that! I said in one of my posts before... I see an LG overlay update soon. There are a few obvious kinks that need to be fixed up.

It's not possible on the LGOG. Which is just plain stupid...

Has anyone figured out a way or good app yet?

I use an app called Smart Profiles which I have preset volume profiles. Its super easy and I don't have to mess with the volume rocker much any more.

Does this allow you to link the notification and call volumes?

Yes, you have the option to set the notification volume to be the same as the ringtone volume in the settings for each of the profiles you set up.

Quick question since you a part of team Nocturnal, is this something that could be achieved trough a custom ROM?
... Say Nocturnal Limited Edition?
Or would the framework source or some such thing be required to edit this?

I've been messing around today and created an application which should do the trick.

Haven't been able to test this with an actual call/notification yet, but looking at the sliders in the system, they move together and seems to be working.
Thank you very much for this.

Suggestion: Alternate uses for the 3D Switch

No doubt it would require full root access, but it'd be very useful if the 3D Switch had a function outside of camera mode. One thought I had would be as a silent/vibrate toggle as found on the iphone. But that's a far cry from all the potential uses for it.

I was thinking maybe the camera button could be used for screenshots? That would be pretty awesome.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
maybe autobrightness and a user defined level would be sweet. also Setting up the camera button to do other things especially because its a dual stage button! we could have perform 2 seperate functions!
Any updates on this? Just got the 3d and I have miui running. The switch is now literally pointless. Any way we could make it a vibrate/sound toggle? Wifi on/off switch? Customizable switch? I just want all of my buttons to have a point in being a button.
Would it be possible to do with one of those Remap button apps?

With MIUI, press volume down + menu for screen shot!
I realize I'm about to stray into the wild crazy world of 'off topic' but here's a few other MIUI tips!

Ring tone and notification link

How can we link ring tone and notification volumes like in gingerbread? I lower the volume but just the ring tone lowers, I'm looking for both volumes to lower at the same time.
Am I missing something or maybe an app can help

i would also like to know if this was possible; audiomanager was able to do this with my epic 4g touch but the option is grayed out on the SIII

I've tried both versions of this app (there are two different developers that make an app called Quick Settings and they look to do about the same thing) and it looks like it will lock them together but it doesn't...
Im using the Verizon phone. You?
I'm on Sprint and it doesn't work. Tried both apps.

This works as an app to replace the volume buttons but I'm looking to still use my volume buttons. I am amazed that this functionality doesn't exist stock!

How can I change HTC Mail app's notification sound?

The subject says is all. I can't find a setting within the app to change the notification sound. Regardless of the system's default notification sound, the app always plays the "hint" sound when I receive an email. It's a very subtle tone and I'd like to change it to something I can actually hear.
I've tried clearing defaults, the cache, and deleting the Exchange account the setting it up again, but no luck. Either something is wrong with my phone or this is just how this phone works. (Which, if it's the latter, is really stupid.)

I already did that, which is why this is so odd. The notification sound does not change regardless of the sound selected.

Make sure you hit "Aplly" after sellecting new sound.

Yeah, I figured it out now. Thanks, all. I didn't realize that the setting was buried in the Personalize menu. I ran stock on my OG DInc for the longest time and am shamefully unfamiliar with certain parts of Sense. Plus, you could customize the notification sound from the Email app on older versions of Sense.

Need a do not disturb app.

I kind of miss the do not disturb mode I had on my Optimus G. What's a good app I can use for this that I can add a white list of calls to allow to ring through?
My dad just asked for this yesterday.
Try Silencify.

i use "I'm Sleeping" and it works great, has not failed me yet.
It doesn't have a whitelist, like what you want, but it silences all notifications and allows calls to still ring. It's called SEER.
