HTC One X running latest ViperX,
When I activate the Android camera the ringtone volume increases to maximum then returns to normal when camera is exited.
This behaviour is not replicated using 3rd party camera apps, I can lower the volume when in the camera app but next time it is opened the same thing happens.
Does anyone know of either a solution or which other processes may be triggered when the camera starts so I can trace the problem back.
Very annoying as when composing a picture of a sleeping cat with ringtone originally set low (shutter sound off) I may receive a call or message which now blares at full volume, thus waking my subject!

Under settings>sound>volume,
there are 4 types.
i only know 3 of them.
"incoming call" is the ringtone volume when the phone receive a call
"Media" is volume of apps, games, music player etc
"notification" is the notification sound like sms, reminder, calender etc
but what is "system" sound?
i notice that the system sound is related to the camera sound,
if i turn system sound all the way down to minimum, the camera focus and shutter sound gets turn off. (i love it that way)
as much as i like to camera shutter sound to be off, i am worried that i might mute some other "important" system sounds, so may i know what are the apps that are related by the system sound?
also, there seem to be many tutorial on how to mute camera sound, why is that needed if this simple way of turning system volume off can do the trick? perhaps is because it cause more harm than good? (such as muting other "important" apps sound)
Hmm....no reply from anyone.
no one knows the answer? or this is too stupid question?
anyway, i left the system volume off for few days now, it seems normal,
viber notification sound still on, only difference so far is the screenshot sound is muted as well.
for fyi for any one who is interested
The one thing my Titan does NOT have that my Tilt2 did was separate volume controls for notifications and call ringtones. Also, there was an automatic setting to cancel notifcations during appointments.
But the biggest issue I have is the Titan call volume throttles back to 10 out of 30, no matter what volume was set before the call. That makes no sense. Some on calls do not hear me well with the volume set so low. I can lower the volume manually but cannot increase it past 10.
Is there an app or registry edit that would get better sound controls?
Hello,
S3 is my first smartphone ever, so please be patient
Since I'm a student, I put my phone on mute during the classes (through the notification bar).
However, it happened to me twice now that accidental touch on volume up hard key took me out of mute. This is of course undesirable... Is there a way to disable this function of volume-up key?
I want to remain muted until I cancel it on notification bar.
Thanks!
bump... can anyone help?
Sad....it remains a big drawback of the android phones that we cant make different profiles for volume like Nokia phones......
I think you can only do this by finding a tone with no sound and setting it for all the alerts manally from sound setting before entering your class room
anyhow this is a good question and hope some devs can desable vol- button for enabling full vol. back
Thanks...
but modifying it manually at the beginning of each class, then again at the end, is not very comfortable.
Perhaps it can be fixed with a mod? something like that:
- clicking volume up if phone is not muted increases the volume, as usual.
- clicking volume up if phone is muted doesn't do anything.
After rebooting the Note 2 and making the first call, the device sets the earpiece volume to a higher setting than what it shows in settings. If the setting is set to the lowest volume there is no way to lower it but the phone outputs at a much higher volume. This occurs only during the first call after restart. According to the forums, the Sprint version of the phone has the same issue.
i haven't experienced that yet however it seems like the lowest volume other than mute on the notification volumes is as loud as my nexus was on highest..
I just upgraded from an S10 Plus. I have my audio settings set exactly the same. When using Google Maps to navigate I have it set to alert only. On the S10 while driving the music would drop in volume, I would get the alert tone and she would say "speed trap ahead" along with the pop-up on the screen asking if the speed trap is still there. On the S23 I only get the pop-up on the screen, no audio notification and the music volume stays constant. Is this a known bug? I would also get notification tones for messages as well, nothing on the S23. If I set it to be completely un-muted the turn by turn directions come through as expected but I have not yet driven through an area where an alert notification would come through while un-muted.
That sounds like a bug because I have a macro set to run everytime I connect to my car to turn down notification volume to 0 so it doesn't mute audio for notifications but calls still ring for me just fine.
