Nice. Seems like all it does is mute phone on restart and unmute.
This will not work if you have to force restart phone though.

System volume and startup sound

Is there a way to keep the startup sound while having system sounds still disabled? Normally, when you turn off system sound, which is all the little clicks when you push buttons, it turns off the startup and shutdown sounds as well.
Just curious why u want to keep those annoying tmobile sound...
You could theorhetically use Taker to keep the volume on high so it will play the sounds and then set it to instantly mute the phone. That would work, but if you don't already have Tasker I don't see an easy way to do it.
I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes

I don't have the default sounds, I'm using the bionix rom, which has its own startup and shutdown sounds

[Q] X10: Vibration

I just realized my X10 does not Vibrate at all... Not even lightly, I even put my ear to it and I cant hear anything! Any ideas? Has anyone else had this sort of problem?
Cheers,

Mine vibrates. Is it set to vibrate in Sound and display settings, and what happens when you turn the volume right down, then up once?
does it vibrate when you power it on?
Get a vibrator ...

cm7dx2 Dialing through the speaker phone

Every time I dial on cm7, pressing the numbers makes sound as though it is on speaker phone (I verified it is using the media volume). It is quite loud and annoying when dialing. cm7 Stock dialer. When it is done dialing it is already in normal phone mode.
Any fix? Thanks in advance.

From your home screen, press the menu button and select Sound. Then remove the check mark from the Audible Touch Tones. That will silence all touch tones.
Ciao!
Perfect, thank you

SGS3 on Silent, still playing a sound?

This might seem like a silly question...
However:
On my S1, when I hit silent or vibration only, when an email arrives, the S1 doesn't make a noise (or vibrates) ie. the notification (like Haze) doesn't play.
yet on the S3, no matter what I do, be it on silent, vibration or what not, the sound STILL plays.
Am I becoming crazy or did samsung just overlook an important bug?
-Chris
Did you check all the volume levels?
(Hit the button on the right side when you turn up / down the volume),
I've noticed that (At least in TouchWiz), the media and notification volumes don't always get lowered when you put it on silent.
Also check "System Settings -> Sound" to see if there's anything that would indicate that it should play a sound while in silent mode.
Confirmed, put phone on silent. Started a video, there was sound.
This sucks.

Hit the settings button that pops on the screen on the right of the volume level shown when you press the volume buttons.. change your media and notification levels from there...

Okay, but if you put the phone on silent it should be SILENT

that's not the point of the button that you press for silent.
Or else what would be the point of the button, when i have to manually do it myself?
I'll log this and get back to you.
I don't know about you, but that seems normal, coming from ICS from SGS2 and iPhone, silent means alerts/notifications is off. But when you play Music or Youtube or Videos will play the sound, if you're actively trying to play media then it makes sense to play sound.
Android has always (except for a brief spell) had separate volumes for ringers, media and alarms

that is normal.
But when a SMS is received, on an s2, and you have it on SILENT what happens?
Does the notification sound still play?
As on the S1...and pretty much any phone dating back to the 3310, it remains SILENT
I've noticed this issue also. Silent mode doesn't mute the notification volume as it should. The temporary work around is to set volume manually, but it seems it is a bug in the Touchwiz UX framework.
I for one can't wait until I get either stock ICS or CM9 (maybe JB or CM10 soon if we're lucky, the source was recently released). These little issues are resolved very quickly in a community developed ROM (less than a week in most cases). There is usually a wait of months for OTA updates.
I just pray that AdamOutler can crack the verizon GS3 bootloader to allow easy customization. The International, AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint users have unlocked/unsigned bootloaders.
Grab audio manager on google play
Then you set the mute profile for all the sounds you want (ringtone, notifications, player,...) and then you add the widget to your homescreen
When you want to mute, just "click" on the widget, got to the profile tab and then select your mute profile

I think it got fixed actually - magically or via OTA

What firmware would that be, out of curiosity? I'm running XXLFB based ROM and it's still not fixed, been driving me insane.
Not sure this helps if you've already got it fixed but I've been using RealSilent ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.geekherd.realsilent ) as recommended by Jerry over at AC. Pretty handy, but not sure how it works with the stock silent toggle in the notification pull down.
It does however work perfectly with CM9.

I'm on lfb, but on darkyrom v2.
I think lfb did it for me.

Isn't that app for the media volume, not notification?
I thought CM9 came with an option to link notification volume with ringer, so that notification on silent is no longer an issue purely because of that.
Maybe I will try a LG1 based ROM... can't believe Samsung overlooked something so basic.

I believe you're right. Sorry, disregard my post.

After trying about 5 different apps including volume +, finally found a straightforward workaround, use the app called simple sound profile widget:
I can't post links yet since I'm under 10 posts, so search for it on Google play.
Really the issue is that Samsung unlinked notification and ringer, but left vibrate and silent toggle alone, so all it does is mute the ringer and not the notification. You'll notice on silent or vibrate, go to system volume and ringer volume still stays the same but shows a mute icon, while notifications volume does not. To fix this you need an app that, when toggling profiles, does not assume ringer and notifications are linked, and also TURNS DOWN VOLUME TO ZERO for both notification and ringer, as I don't believe mute for notifications is working. Simple sound does exactly that, the only thing missing is a true toggle widget since you have to click the widget then select a profile, but it fixed the notification issue properly so I'm not complaining.

Maybe your custom ROM fixed it, I'm on Omega 8.1 which is base on LFB, issue is still there.

What does mute do?

This watch has no speaker so why does it have an option to mute it...lol???

Vibration notifications are muted.
I still haven't tested but with the wear app it also has an option to mute the watch and phone or just the watch. I'm not sure how well that does muting both.

It's more like a "Do Not Disturb" mode.
No vibration and no screen popups anymore when receiving a card. The cards are still on the watch, but you only see your clock and have to wake up the watch to see them.
