[Q] mute ring

Hi All,
Q: This is to ask you if your lovely HD 2 mutes your ringtone in jeans pocket?? When I walk, someone calls me and to 2-3 seconds is silence.
I think it's because this big touch button "mute ring" when call is incoming... Is it possible to disable it? Or do some slider instead this button?

Which option in sound increases voicetalk volume?

Hi everyone,
Just wondering which sound setting controls volume for voice talk notification? When I do driving mode and a call is incoming, the volume is really low. I set my ringer volume on the lowest (one bar up from vibrate mode). I'm guessing this is it... but can anyone verify?
I'm at work now so didn't want to disrupt people by my phone going off figuring this out.
Thanks!

[Q] Disabling mute button during a call

Hi!
How can I disable the mute button during a call on STOCK ROM? I have big hands and my finger reaches the mute button before the proximity sensor locks screen, so my partner can't hear me...
I am interested in any solution (modifying stock apk, changing apk to some of custom ROM's, etc...
Thanks in advance,

[Q] Question about volume types

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

Auto mute mic when answer a call

Hi everyone.
Just a little question, is there a way to automatically mute an incoming call on Android when you answer it? Just to mute the microphone automatically and then when I want to talk I tap on the mute button and it comes back or something like that.
