Friends, how to decrease the volume of notifications and not decrease the volume of phone calls?? If I try to decrease the sound of the notifications of any app The sound of the calls also decreases, it looks like they are hitched
What phone do you got? On my Mate 10 Lite I have 4 channels. Ringtone, Media, Alarm and Calls

That is not what he is asking. Media is for movies and songs. Alarm is self explanatory. Calls is the volume of the voice of the person on the other end of a phone call, whether you initiated the call or not. Ringtone, is the volume of whatever you choose to hear when a call comes in...but this is also the volume of the notification tones you choose to hear when a text, or an email arrives.
The linking of these two volumes has been a major pain for some years now. This is an Android thing. My ZTE Axon 7 has them unlinked but ZTE did it so I know it can be done. However, nearly all other OEM's do NOT do this but leave it at the default. There are 3rd party apps in the Play Store that claim to do this but NONE of the ones I tried actually work!
What I did is create a notification tone at half volume. That way I can leave the ringtone volume at a higher level and the notification still comes through not as loud! Major pain, but it works.

But why would you want to have the notifications and call volume split? Just curious.

The issue is that in general, if you use built in ringtones, they are generally pleasant little songs that play when someone is trying to call you. Today, though, most people do not talk on their "phones" but rather send and receive texts and emails. However, the built in tones for notifications are usually very short and more harsh in their tone in order to get your attention, not to mention they are played much more often than a true ringtone. Therefore, many people want the volume of their notifications to be lower, less obtrusive, than their ringtone. But the wisdom of the people at Google decided that we want them both to be the same volume all the time, which is simply not true. Thus, my solution.

Perfect, that's exactly what I meant, on the Samsung S7 / S8 we can separate the volume. I find that very inconvenient.
+1 missing split volume ring/notification
Any solution?

So i use ribgdroid to cut my mp3s to use them as a ribg tone. Only problem is, when someone calls me it rings really quiet for 1 second then goes to a normal volume. Am i doing something erong? I am saving them as ring tones, i dobt see the problem. Regular vibrant tmobile ringtones work jusr fine
Have you tried playing the MP3 on a different device?

That is a standard samsung thing. It happens on all(most?) samsung phones. I believe there was a thread for a "fix" for it in either the vibrant or i9000 area... i dont remember but it makes it so it has the one volume level when the phone rings.
It's a feature. A very annoying feature.
Anyone able to create a profile to solve the issue we have with our note. The issue is the following,
If headphones are plugged in and we get an incoming call, the ringtone will play on both speaker and headphones.
If headphones are plugged in and we get a notification, the sound will only play through speaker.
I tried to do a basic script that has headphones plugged in and incoming call for context, then set ringer volume to 0 and play music ringtone.mp3. Add exit task to for the opposite, raise ringer volume, stop music.
The problem is, it worked, if I didn't have music playing already when I get an incoming call, which is the whole reason why I would have headphones plugged in to begin with. The task successfully sets the ringer volume to 0 so at least it didn't play on the speaker, but then nothing would play on the headphones, and the music I was playing would pause (like it's supposed to), but the ringtone I specified didn't play. Ending the call resumes the music I was playing.
Anyone willing to shed some insight on this?
This issue is next on my list. I believe it is an issue with how the phone distinguishes what the sound is. ..phone vs media...hard to explain

that does look like what i want, but i'll have to get home before I can test it.
btw, where are the notification sounds stored? the ones that came with the phone.
System.media.audio

anyone willing to give the script a try and see if it works, or I just did something wrong.
I'll try tonight
My phone is always on vibrate, but even then when I'm listening to music I still have the notification sound going off when I get a text or email. I tried disabling all sounds and the notification will still go off in my headphones regardless of what mode the phone is in. Any way to fix that?
+1 Seems a rather common problem and I have not been able to find a fix...
I think its a General android problem which if i remember correctly google said they have changed in Android 5.0 but thats months Away from us
There is a xposed module i think caled DO NOT DISTURB which prevents alot of things interupting music play
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I couldn't find that, but most of the apps I've found simply put the phone in silent/vibrate based on different events.
I wouldn't mind it if the interruptions were limited to Ringer mode, but lowering volume while on vibrate or silent? That just ruins the music experience.
Hi I have Moto-E 2nd Gen from Cricket bought earlier this year.
I'd like to increase volume and duration of notification for appointments. Right now if I pick one of the available notifications, it beeps just once with whatever sound I picked (and if I have headphones plugged in but am not actually listening, then I don't hear at all).
Sound is also quite low.
I'd like for notifications to be like alarms, i.e. keep ringing till I do something or at least ring 5-6 times.
Can someone help? Appreciate it
If you have the 2nd gen, you are in the wrong forum. You need the Moto E 2015 forum.

I'm using RadarBeep app in my car, but because my phone is paired to the car via Bluetooth, all the sounds that RadarBeep emits (radar alerts voice notification, radar proximity beeps,...) go to a channel that I would only normally hear if I put the car audio source to bluetooth. Unfortunately I prefer to listen to radio and by doing so I can't listen to RadarBeeps alerts... until now!
So I did this small xposed module, more as a small personal project to understand how to do it .
It seems to actually work, so I share it, maybe more people have the same need .
What I did is force all the RadarBeep sounds to go through the ringer stream, so you'll need to adjust the ringer volume on your phone accordingly. You can still lower the volume of Voice / Beeps from within RadarBeep. The master volume from RadarBeep settings won't work (as it adjusts the Media volume, not the Ringer volume).
Bugs can be expected, so bear with me

I would love to see a universal version of this so we can re-route all sounds but will give this a try

What do you mean all sounds? All sounds from any app?
Maybe it would be possible. I'm not an expert in this. I managed to get it working as I needed for this case, not sure I would manage what you say, it sounds much more complicated. But Who knows.
Report back on your experience with this module please. Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my late response but i have more apps that have the same function as RadarBeep so it would be cool if you could reroute all audio from any app this way.
Would it be possible to change a setting somewhere (decompile and edit/replace something?) so it would use the sms app (from marshmallow) instead and send sms notifications to the ringer stream ?

I'm confused here, I don't understand what you mean with sms here, AFAIK RadarBeep doesn't send any SMS. Or do you mean that sms notification (not related at all with RadarBeep would ring through the ringer stream? (that should be possible I guess)

Hi, sorry for the confusion, yes the last part is what i mean, i had an xposed module to have sms notification in ringer stream up to kitkat 4.4 on my S4 but after lollipop it didn't work anymore and the dev. never updated his mod (so i had to leave my s4 at kitkat firmware only for this lol)
