CM9 is amazing for, if nothing else, this one reason... - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

The ability to have separate volumes for ringtones and notifications. I can't stand how google left this feature out of ICS, when it was in all previous versions of android (1.5+).
I've been using CMx since the days of the Hero, so it was a no-brainer for me to look straight to their work once I rooted my Galaxy Nexus.

Almost every ROM has this built in, just FYI. And although CM9 WILL be something great as of right now most ROMs have more features and stability than what is currently out from the CM team.

Yes. Most roms have this capability. Some even allow you to have a "settings" button when you do volume up/down, and once clicked, it gives you options to change in-call, speaker, notification, and alarm volumes, all from the single volume up/down button!

Well it's standard in AOKP (actually released in build 28: "Added extra volume slider options (Stevepear426, tmoskowite on gummy)") and I'm using Axi0m Patient Zero... basically anything built from the newer AOKP builds will have this feature.

[APP][BETA] ICS Notify! - Separate SMS/Gmail/Ringtone Volumes! - January 31st

First of all, you should realise this app is very much in the early stages of development, and as such, bugs should be expected.
So what does this app do?
Well, if you are anything like me, you will have been annoyed by the fact that in ICS your notification and ringtone volume are locked together. This application attempts to resolve that.
So far you can only set separate volumes for your Gmail and SMS notifications. Everything else will play at the volume specified in your phone's settings. More notification options will be added soon.
I couldn't find an application that allows you to do this on ICS, but if one already exists on here, then I apologise.
So yeah, It's pretty self explanatory, enjoy!
Still does not support 3rd party sms/gmail applications. This is being worked on!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
WHAT'S NEW?
* Incoming call bug fixed (where it used the gmail values)
* The relative checkbox bug fixed
* Incoming call volume added
* 'Relative volume' added (thanks to pascanu for the idea!)
* Vibration can be turned on or off for each setting (except incoming call, caused too many problems)
* Help menu added
* New icon (by yours truly, if someone wants to make me a better one, please do!)
BUGS:
* It's rare, but If you receive SMS/Gmail messages in rapid succession, the volume will fluctuate wildly (multiple sms/gmail less than 1 second apart).
* There may be some bugs with the Incoming Call settings. If you find any please let me know!

Thanks Meltus for ALL your apps.
Great app! I was also very annoyed by the fact that in ICS ringer and notification volumes can no longer be separated.
A few suggestions/requests:
- ability to specify notifications volume relative to ringer volume (i.e. +/- a specific amount). For example indoors I would have ringer set to 5 and notifications to 3, but if I go outdoors I would easily increase the ringer to 10 (using the rocker) and the notifications would follow to 8 (no need to enter the app)
- Tasker plugin (endless possibilities)
Thanks for your effort.

Hey Meltus
Thanks for stepping up to fill this big void in ICS when no one else has. Given your other work, you're the right guy for the job!
As mentioned above, it is a little confusing for those of us also using your Volume+ app. Since that one has volume #s way past 10, does setting the volumes in this app negate those? Or supplement? Or subtract?

No, the 0 - 7 in this app refers to the 'volume steps', it can be used in conjunction with Volume+ just fine. So 0 is silent, 1 is the equivalent of pressing the volume up button once from silent and so on. 7 is full volume.
Sorry, I'm terrible at explaining things lol
Great Idea. It would be nice to have this work in ICS. I have installed the app buy so far now luck. It does not disable or change volume in SMS or GMAIL. I chanbe the numbers 0 though 7 but nothing changes.

Hi, it was tested on ICS so it should be working fine.
Does it not change at all when you get an SMS or Gmail? What happens in the logcat?
It doesn't seem to change anything no matter what I set it to. Even setting to 0 doesn't disable sound, should right?
I am not sure where to check logcat. Let me know and Id be glad to look.
Thanks for the reply. I'll be glad to help out. Hope I'm not doing something stupid.
I am running CynaogenMod 14 for captivate. Thought Id point that out.

The 'Relative' volume options are now fully coded and working
(-4 to +4. They will adapt to whatever volume level you set).
I've also changed '0' to 'Silent' and will be adding a 'Silent and Vibrate' option.

Awesome...can't wait for this. I need my ringer volume at it's highest capacity but the notifications constantly going off are too loud
If you could consider ChompSMS as well please!
Yeah, I was not getting any notable volume changes. I had turned off native SMS notifications though.
Also, my gmail was FCing for some reason when I tried to open it, possibly from this app? If it happens again, I'll try to send a logcat. After I disabled the app, it didn't FC any more.

BEFORE DOWNLOADING PLEASE READ
There is a small bug in this version which I will fix as soon as possible (far too tired to do it now). When you load up the app, the 'Relative' option will be enabled. This needs to be disabled for the settings to update. You can then re-enable it again if you wish. DISABLING IT FIRST IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!

Testing. Seams to work fine.
Problem: I am also using Light Flow and have set it to clear notifications when screen is switched on. When I receive a notification ICS Notify kicks in and turns the screen on, negating Light Flow's action.
Not technical a bug, I know. Trying to figure out a workaround...

SYSTEM Volume

Hi,
why is there no option to adjust system volume (camera-shutter, battery warning, ...) in any ICS ROM?
Without 3rd party-apps you can´t set system-volume of the phone...
I really don´t like that...
e.e I like 3rd party apps ... they are sometimes better than stock

that´s the problem... why do i need a third party app to adjust simple things like system-volume?
ICS has integrated sliders for alarm-volume, in-call-volume, and so on... but why is system-volume missing?
Why CM9 or AOKP don´t include such a slider?

If you're already using ics roms which are always third party, why do you mind using a third party app? Personally, I have fallen in love with volume+. Check the developer's website for free full version (market version sucks).

because it kills homogenous look&feel ... i´d like to adjust all volumes with ICS-settings (e.g. opened via volume button) - and i don´t like to start an extra app for adjusting system-volume.
that´s really not necessary... what´s the problem to add a slider into ics-settings?
Its built into the stock sound settings on aokp. You can link or unlink system volume. I forget how it was on stock, but I'm pretty sure its tied in with ringer volume on stock. So your camera sound is whatever level your ringer volume is.

oh thanks.. so i will try AOKP...
at stock-ROM it is definitely not tied in ringer volume - you need an extra app there...

[q] volume on cm10

Hi!
My name is Takin, and I live in Norway.
I'm new to this stuff and just got my kindle yesterday. Went straight home and rooted it and loaded CM9 on it and then upgrading to CM10.
The fact that the Kindle does not have physical volume controls haven't really bothered me before now. For every stroke on the on-screen keyboard, I hear a clicking sound (really loud if headphones are plugged in). The option is in fact unchecked in the settings menu.
Another thing - is there no other way to moderate the volume than doing this trough the whole process of entering the system-menu?
My last question: regarding this problem. Should I wipe the device and stay on CM9 ?
Anyone?:..
Install an app that will give you a widget. I use "Volume" from the store.

Keyboard sounds are separate from other sounds and volumes. Under "Languages & Input" in settings, you can access the keyboard settings and disable key clicks.

Apart from AOSP, I think all CM10 based ROMS either have a volume controller in the notification menu, or have a setting to enable it.
Hope that helps.

What CM10 ROM are you running?
And just like soupmagnet said, go to the settings, and under Personal, there is a Language and input option. Choose that, and then tap on the little slider icon next to the Android keyboard. There you can turn off Sound on keypress.
If you have your tablet in a tablet UI, there should be a sound bar in your notification popup menu.
If you are looking for a developed CM10, then I would choose twa-priv's ROM with SGT7 and other fun stuff. If you are looking for a pure Vanilla experience, I would choose something like Hashcode's.
I have had no issues whatsoever with sounds and control of them with twa-priv's ROM with SGT7. I tried another CM10 ROM but went back to twa-priv's because it was more developed.
I found out how to turn off touch sounds, but can't find keyboard clicks. This is running Hash's JB build. Think it was 9/28

[Q] Fast profile switching on JellyTime CM10?

Good afternoon,
i'm using JellyTime (based on CyanogenMod 10 and so JellyBean) and i really like Profiles, that i use to mute my phone and turn off network interfaces.
I'm only annoyed by the fact that the "fastest" way to switch between profiles is using the power menu, that is really unconfortable.
Isn't there a way to add a quick profile switch button to the notification bar or something like this?
Thank you!

I think you can add a launcher shortcut to Trebuchet, I'm not sure (last time I ran JellyTime, it had no camera xD).
If not you can try Silence (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.epsilonlabs.silence.ads) maybe that's what you'd need?

I'm using Nova Launcher, not Trebouchet. I Nova there is no way to add a shortcut to Profile switch. Anyway, it would be kinda uncomfortable too, because i would need to unlock my screen and then launch the shortcut to change a profile.
I've took a look at Silence (thank you) but it doesn't do all the stuff that Profile can do (and i don't like installing apps for something the ROM can do by itself). Silence can't switch on/off the 3G and has some problems activating airplane mode.
I'll stay with Profiles for now

Yeah, I personally owe him a lot as his builds from philz touch has been on my phone for a long time without seeing any rival close to.
Out of all of the new ROMs that has been popping up on the forums recently, this is, so far, my most favorite, and most stable one so far. This ROM is FAST, and I know that's subjectively speaking, but I feel as though this ROM is blazing. And so far, it feels amazing with stability as well; have yet to run into any hiccups or lag yet. Gonna run this for a while and see how it ages! Thanks again, @JustinXu. You are based God.

If you're referring to stock LG 4.1.2 ROM, not as good because custom AOSP ROMs just don't compare to stock ROMs. But its not bad at all to say the least. Just give it a shot and see how it runs for you.
The sad thing is that i own a nexus 4 and my GF a OG. kills me see my gf still in V10d. Its sad, and also insecure.
So I'm researching very well before installing an aosp rom her, because I that she doesn't share the flash addiction that i have.
I know all these roms from my nexus 4, I just want know if any is bug free on the OG
Some things stills confuses me.
Could you please tell me if about this bug the camera focus, and if there's any way to avoid it ?

If you want a truly stable experience, I'd say go for a custom 4.1.2 ROM, MAYBE even 4.4.2. AOSP is stable usually, but it does have its quirks from time to time. Since your GF isn't a power user, it might be the best idea to put her on a stock LG ROM for the least amount of bugs.
