I'm trying to find an app, or flashable rom that allows the volume +/- to be used as prev/next track when long pressed, or quick-tapped when screen is off or on lock screen.
I found a couple that didn't work with Pandora or Slacker. Anyone know of one that works with every app - on lock screen or when screen is off?
Its called cyanogen mod

Moving to Q&A
First off, sorry if this is in the wrong place. I have a HTC Hero S that I just got the other day. I rooted it over the weekend and noticed that when I go to change the volume of my ringer or to put it on silence it won't show it. I can hear the chimes and the icon in the notification bar tells me if it is silent/vibrate/or ring but the volume bar or whatever it is called will not show up. How do I get that back? Thanks for any input.

Anybody???
when screen is on, but lock screen still on, volume should work if a media player is going, but otherwise, the volume buttons shouldn't control ringer volume unless you unlock it first. I'm finding in my pocket or when I check time, volume is constantly changed to volume all the way down or all the way up. is there any way to hack a change in this behavior???
thanks ya'll
This is also happening to me a lot. I always keep my phone on vibrate while working. Come to find out my ringer is on full blast during a meeting after checking the time is no fun
noticed this also. bump bump
That would be great it sucks that it changes

This is one of the few things I hate about this phone.
Need mod so Volume Down does turn volume down or turn on vibrate
I hear your pain. Let's keep this thread going or make a new one for a dev to take it on.
On my OG, I used the Button Mapper app to change the Volume Down button to duplicate the Power button. Too bad it only works on Gingerbread.
Benefits of this mod being two fold:
1) To wake the device just press Volume Down. Much easier than top button.
2) When fumbling with the phone, you could not inadvertently turn the volume down and/or set it to Vibrate.
Let's hear some chatter guys.
I'll take anything to quit the pocket volume changing
Wipywd: See the original article for the Evo 4G.

This was the best thing since sliced bread. I saw some early traffic when the Evo LTE came out with guys trying to make a setting like this. It evolved into forward and backward for audio players. Then there was this one for Viper's ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688556
Recommendation: Change the title of the thread to:
"Dev needed to mod Volume Down button to Power function".
Let's see if we can get more interest and a dev to help us out.

Not sure if a dev with this device has looked into framework-res.apk that's most likely where this modification should take place. Then again system>usr> keylayouts etc, could be the issue. Is the issue on stock? Or on all roms?

I think you should start a new thread to change the functionality of it, as that's probably more complex than just stopping the volume buttons while the screen is locked. the main problem is volume changed without you meaning to

@wlpywd: Exactly. If you distill your issue down to the basics, I think we are asking almost the same thing. Let's figure this out for a dev to code. We have Sinistertensai's attention. Let's PM to work out the spec and post together.
Whatcha think wlpywd?
like I said, I'm all for ANYTHING that will solve this without needing to flash a whole new rom.
I can't really contribute much to any development of any kind, other than wish-listing, as my Android programming skills are just barely in the realm of existing, but I'll do whatever I can!
I am on Imnuts Tweaked VZW Remix rom VRALL4 04-08-13 with PeanutButta Jelly Kernel.
For the life of me, I can not find the Swap Calls button.
Where the Swap Call button should be, there is a Record button.
Any suggestions of finding and placing the Swap Call button back to normal area of the dialer screen will be much appreciated.
Go to tsm settings and I think under the miscellaneous tab there is an option to switch the call record and swap calls button

I don't know how to complete silent my gs4. I tried with tasker but even though alarm volume sets to zero, I can still hear the ringing from my clock. Could any one figure out with tasker???
Thanks,
Make or download a silent ringtone?
