Typical issue:
- about to start some app that makes noise (game, paused music player, etc)
- trying to lower volume in advance, by using the volume button: doesn't work, controls the ringer volume instead as the phone is not playing any sound yet
- start app: LOOOOUUUUDDDDDD... until i can lower volume using volume button.
Question: any way to change the behaviour of the volume button so it controls AT ALL TIMES the media volume?
Thanks!
Don't know about any app that would do that, but you can go to sound settings before opening games, media, players, etc. and lowering the media volume before starting those apps.
Stick a finger over the speaker hole until you're able to lower the volume, it effectively mutes it. (except in very, very quiet environments)
Hi, I'm a newbie,
and i feel your problem as well.
Who in the world often change the ringer volume?
Most people will want it either at maximum volume, or minimum volume (off, at silent mode)
Most people (i believe i speak for most people),
would rather have the volume rocker to control the media volume.
Is there a better fix for this? Please help.
covering the volume hole is a nice trick, but its not really an effective solution.
Man who stick hole in finger better sticking finger in settings sounds and adjusting sound levels no ???

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ah I have this exact same probelm
I have been using the finger up the butt method lol
would be nice to control only media volume with volume button
Does this only happens on the SGS2?
Or all android devices?
volume widget
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I use a "lock the ringer" app for this purpose alone.
If I could reprogram the volume buttons to always only affect the media, I could even get rid of the above app.
Loads of custom ROMs and custom stock ROMs have the option to have the volume expandable so when you tap the rocker the dialer volume appears but then there's a little settings icon at one end and you can tap that and media, notification and alarm volume all appear
Is there a way to increase the volume on bt-headsets?
if i set the volume on the headset to 100% and the volume on the watch to 100% it is still not really loud.
Please help.
Whenever I plug in my headset, the phone is supposed to change the ringtone volume as per the profile I set in the volume settings, but it only does so when the volume settings view is in foreground. If I plug in the headset while the phone is locked, or in the home screen, or in any other app, it doesn't work. Sometimes I forget and my ears are left ringing for a good while. Is there any way to fix this so the volume changes when I plug in the headset even if it is locked?
This is a health hazard. Seriously.
Hello all!
I have a problem for a long time now but i did not had it when i bought the phone. When i am in-call, when i press volume down/up the microphone's volume is being adjusted. When i bought the phone, when i was pressing the volume up/down i could adjust the in-call earpiece volume. After a random moment, it changed and i could adjust the microphone's volume instead of the earpiece's that i want. Any workarounds to fix this problem?
Thanks!
Hello,
Im really satisfied with my phone.
Im OK with the speaker volume while listening podcasts or anything that uses it.
But, when I make any videocall (whatever app), the volume sound is so low!!!
Is there anyway to increase it on videocalls?
Thanks
are you sure you are adjusting call volume instead of just media volume? when you're on a call and adjust the volume, you can click the down arrow on the volume notification and adjust each volume individually
