Hello,
Does anyone know how I stop the volume buttons from adjusting my ringer volume? It's very annoying to sometimes accidentally press them without realizing it, and then have the phone explode at maximum volume when a call comes in.
Thanks!
I can do this, but without testing it im not sure what it will do. Meaning, it may disable the button completely in the rom. (will still work in recovery though). But its worth a try.

I keep changing the volume of the device just by holding it.
My fingers seems to rest on the volume button(s). Both when I hold the Desire HD
In portrait and landscape mood.
Really annoying
Is there a way to disable the physical volume button and use a software dito.
For all sound except during calls, then those physical buttons might come handy.
I have managed to turn of the Mic on a X10 Mini, but didn't believe I would have problems with a full size mobile...

I'm also interested in this. Google shows it's been done on other devices so it should be possible. Unfortunately I'm not clever enough to do it but someone out there must be.
Heck I'd even live with it being disabled during calls assuming I'd pre set it at an adequate level.
I had the same issue!
Check out Volume Control+ on the Android Marketplace. You can set the volumes for each program individually and lock the volume rocker outside of calls or videos; whatever you like.
It's not perfect; the rocker will still vibrate when you press it if it's locked. The volume won't change though. It's definitely good enough!
have been running Vicious 4.1.1 for a few days now. When trying to listen to music, specifically dar.fm app, the volume is cut in half after answering and finishing a call. Volume adjustment doesn't do much. The only way to restore full volume is to reboot the phone.
Anyone see this type of volume issue?
quick update, after ending the call, if I go into the volume control area under settings and move the slider around then back, the volume will restore to full.
Sounds like a bug.
Anyone know of an app or update that can stop the volume rocker sending the phone into silent mode. My son's old phone volume rocker only went down to vibrate so now he keeps turning the sound of by habit/accident.
You could use Tasker for this. Create a profile that every (few) minute(s) would set the volume to the desired level. That way the phone will stay on silent at most for the period between two consecutive profile triggers.
Cheers!
Thanks though it's not what I really want. I don't want a set volume level, just to stop it being put into full silent mode by the buttons.
As far as I know, there's no easy way into intercepting and blocking volume keys. It's hardcoded into Android and can only be modified into custom ROMs (like skip tracks in CyanogenMod). But I don't know of anything that does what you want. So that's why I presented you this workaround.

Thanks again, I do appreciate it but that is not a workaround that actually achieves what I want, that would cause a fixed volume, I want to be able to change the volume and go vib only but avoid silent.
Doesn't matter if I'm using the earpiece or speakerphone the volume doesn't change when I use the physical volume buttons or the on-screen slider. Anyone else had this problem or know of a solution or things/settings I can check? It seems to be locked where it's at even though I can see the slider moving.
Can't really say when it started. I'm wondering if I may have removed something while cleaning up bloat and such that I shouldn't have after rooting/bootloader. Maybe there is an app that is now affecting it. I don't know but it really sucks. Lol
Btw, volume for music and video playback adjusts just fine which further leads me to believe it's a system process or something with the software.
Hi all, I need your help!
The easiest way to change the call volume in Lollipop is to press the volume buttons. You then can change volume and vibration.
When I play a game and press the volume buttons, it changes the media volume. So far, so good. But when I leave the game and press the volume button again, it stays at changing the media volume - no chance to change call volume or vibration!
The only solution is to close all recent apps.
Does anyone else have this problem? Any way to solve it...?
Thank you!
No need to answer this anymore, I went back to 4.4!
Beside this problem the battery drain was too much. Messages in WhatsApp or Threema arrived about 30min too late. HeadsUp sucks!
I'm happy now with KitKat, won't update to lollipop anymore. I just hope for a stagefright-fix for KitKat.
