Hi.
I'm actually on null_ rom, and when i'm pushing the volume down key, i can only go in 'Vibrate' mod.
If I've a good memory, on my old rom (Omega AOKP), with volume down key, i can go in Silent Mod.
So, is there any way to activate this in my rom ?
Thanks a lot.
Anyone ?
Is null rom Sammy-based? I'm using Sammy Omega and it does the same. If I remember correctly, CM10 goes silent by volume down. My guess would be that AOSP/AOKP roms have silent, while Sammy roms go straight to vibrate.
Holding power button lets you choose silent profile. Or to your question, you might wanna check out the Theme/Apps forum and see if they have anything there

Hi.
Nope it's an AOSP rom !
Now I use Toogles but the volume down was really super fast.
I don't know why it's doesn't work in that rom..
Maybe the dev opted to use the vibrate mode instead.. can't say for sure.

BTW, i'm gonna continue to use to toogle for the moment ^^
Thanks for your answers anyway !

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?

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
Sent from Samsung Galaxy S 2 (80GB)
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.

My I9100 is running the stock 4.0.3 ICS update that was installed via Kies. Everything I've read says that ICS links the ringer and notification volumes, but this has not been my experience.
My volume rocker only changes the ringer volume. I verified this by installing Persist Volume Control and watching as only the ringer volume changes.
Does anyone know what's wrong? This behavior seems different from everyone elses'.
Thanks!

As I always want to control the volume levels of each media type separately, I am happy that the ringer and notification volume level are not linked.
But I am using Elixir Widget app from the Play store to change the volume levels and save my volume profile(s).
Usually, I do not change the volume level by the volume key.

Does it matter? Is this not core functionality that should be found in all flavors of ICS? No matter how bastardized by the OEM?
Either way, in the Google link one person does mention their SGS2.
Is my research wrong and are these indeed not supposed to be linked?
So... nobody knows?

exactly the same problem. They're obviously supposed to be linked because every single google result except this one is ICS users trying to separate the link complaining they want that feature back
Attached a screenie of my offical O2 kies-updated ICS 4.0.3 volume screen, showing they're not linked...
constantly missing texts because i just use the volume rocker to turn up my phone forgetting it doesnt turn up notifications like Gingerbread used to

Glad I'm not alone... but maybe us 2 are?
GB I have the option to link or keep separate.
I personally prefer separate control over these settings.
Why would you wish to permanently link them?
Could you not simply just set these values where you wish them individually and be satisfied?

How hard is it to turn one or both up or down. Custom settings are what makes a phone individual.Personally i like the idea they are not linked. My ringer can be turn full on or off and my notifications to just a whisper...Perfect.

If I want my ringer to be quiet, I want my notifications to also be quiet. I should be able to do this via the volume rocker, like I can on my One X, and used to be able to do prior to my I9100's ICS update.

It's quite a nuisance if I want them to be adjusted concurrently.
I've read that ICS is supposed to force (or give the option of) linking, which is the point of my thread. Is this only the case for every phone except the I9100?
nice thanks so much

Its not a custom setting, this is supposed to be stock ICS, i certainly wouldnt have chose to have this crap feature.
It now takes 4 presses to get to the menu every time you wander into a quiet situation, and then another 4 when you leave it (not including actually moving the volume sliders).
I personally find that very annoying when there's a volume control on the side of my phone.
Use CM9. Has ability to link ringtone & notification volumes.
Is there a way to implement this on stock Samsung ICS (Touchwiz)? Tried quick settings but the option is greyed out.
Thanks

I've had this issue too. Thought the volume buttons should control both ringer and notifications but they didnt. Im running Caulkin's ICS rom too so that may have something to do with it. Regardless, after MUCH searching and downloading of apps that I thought would do this but they didn't, I finally found an app that did this for me! Quick Settings by Halfbit - note that there are two apps by different developers called the same thing. I didn't try the other one but this one worked.
Strange though, the selection to link the notification and ringer volumes is checked, but grayed out. So guess you have to uninstall the app to change this configuration..

Apparently not. Stock/ota ics for droid4 also removes the checkbox to allow you to link the volumes if you want to. I want to link them as well so when i turn it down at a meeting, i don't get blown out of my chair when i get a text.
Setting everything once and forgetting it doesn't work for a lot of people. For me, i need it quiet at work, then loud while not at work so i can hear ringer/sms sounds over road noise/music while driving, or if i leave my phone upstairs at home. I use moto's smart actions to handle the volume changing automatically (think of it as a gimped version of tasker) but now that ringtone and notification vol are no longer linkable, and smart actions can't control notification volume, i consider it to be broken. It turns down ringer vol just fine, but notifications are still crazy loud. Very annoying. Can't wait for cm9 (or even 10) for the droid4!
By default I leave my phone on silent but with vibrate on. However there are times, for example during school when I put my phone of the desk, where I need the vibration to not happen either.
This is my first smartphone -- my last phone, the wonderful LG Xenon, could do this easily.. It started at volume 7/7 and as I hit the side volume button, it went down to 6, 5, etc, to 1, to Silent + vibrate, to Silent w/o vibrate. On my Samsung Galaxy 2 I have to go in the settings to change the vibrate? Seems a little harsh..
Does anyone know of a way to change it to work as mentioned above? Is there a plug-in (not an actual app please) to make it as simple as that?
Thanks
I use CM9 and I have added the sound icon to my power widget bar (the shortcuts you see once you pull the notification bar). In settings I can choose how I want the sound button to cycle through different options - so you can set it to whatever you want including silence and vibrate only etc.)
We really need to know what ROM you're using. On AOKP it works just like you said, the buttons on the side work like this: High volume -> Low volume -> Vibrate -> Silent
It sounds like you may be running Stock (Factory) ROM. I haven't used that in forever but if that's what you're on, I would highly recommend moving to one of the wonderful ICS roms here in the forums.
I don't use vibrate mode, either silent or normal ringing.
I haven't rooted my phone yet. It seems like a lot of work/learning for too little of a payoff (not saying it doesnt open up a lot of features, just not a whole lot that I'D use). So i guess I'm running the stock/factory ROM, but I'm using GO Launcher
This works via the volume rocker in aokp. Hold volume - until its on vibrate. Press volume - again to turn off vibrate.

On my stock 2.3.4 w/Entropy's DD kernel, it's High volume -> Low Volume -> Vibrate. No silent mode with the buttons.
I put mine on vibrate when it's in my pocket.

That would be because he said it works via the volume rocker in AOKP ROM. Thats Android Open Kang Project. A ROM here in the development forums. Not stock. I'm not sure if there is an app to do what u want. But in either case, I highly suggest u root your phone (its very easy now adayz) and flash a custom ROM. I would suggest AOKP of course. The benefits far outweigh the risk my friend. Good luck and happy flashing.

Since you're using go launcher try checking out the Go Switch Widget. I know you said you'd prefer not to use any extra apps but its really a plugin for the launcher you already use. It has a button option for turning on the sound as well as a separate vibrate button. Its also customizable so you can choose just the vibrate button so the widget would be small and not take up much of your screen space.
Hope that's helps
With Stock ROM, in Settings/Sound/Vibration/ select"Only when not in silent mode". Will not vibrate when Silent selected with rocker. Not option for silent+vibrate in addition to silent only.

Ah!! Ive been using this widget already for individual brightness and battery widgets. In fact i even had a missing space in the row of 4 (I also have the flashlight widget), so this fits perfectly. Thanks so much
Problem solved!
I am sorry to ask this kind of question, but googling did not get me far...
When I use the volume buttons to silence my phone, it goes from the lowest volume directly to the Silent Mode. On Cm7 and IIRC on earlier CM9 versions there was a "Vibrate Only" step in between. Does anybody know if and how i can reactivate that feature again?
Thanks!
is the question so stupid?

You are right.
The vibrate only step is missing.
I can't say is it's a feature or a bug but if you care do much about it, you can upgrade to the latest nightly or CM10 where Vibrate only option is present when you press volume button down
Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII
Thanks
nice, nightly it is, then...
Edit: I'm on the latest Nightly now (20120815), but it still has no vibrate setting. Should I make a feature request, at the risk of going on their nerves?
Hi all,
As you know you can change the status of the ringer with the sound button at Galaxy S III. When you press up at mute it changes to vibrate and you press it at vibrate it changes to sound vice verse. But as a normal person and with a normal handling of the phone, when I want to press the lock key I mistakenly press to the volume button with the other edge of my hand because I am holding the phone...
So question is; how can I disable this "changing status with volume keys" features?
If your question is about this feature on JB leak, I talk about this in the lastest leak thread :

Ok, sorry ! I think the solution is to modify system/framework/ext.jar.
Install Volume Control+
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cb.volumePlus
It enables you to lock the volume in place so that the volume buttons will not adjust the volume.
