[Q] Battery life, volume rocker activates music - HTC One X

Hello everyone,
I have a couple of questions. First of all, when the phone is in standby and even when in silent mode, the volume rocker seems to activate the music player, at the highest volume no less. is there any way to deactivate this feature? (app, settings, whatever...)
also, the battery life seems pretty horrible, I can barely get by one day. I'm running on Android Revolution 5.1.0. Is there any other ROM that has better battery management? It's the thing I care most about, really.
thanks in advance
Karim

[Q] Have volume rocker always control media volume?

Is there any way to permanently make the volume rocker control media volume? My PLAY doesn't do calls so it's annoying that it changes the ringer volume when music or games aren't playing. The way I can think of implementing this ability would be to have a service running in the background that tells the phone music is playing even when it's not, as well as having it start on boot. I haven't the slightest clue about app development but this seems it should be a relatively easy task that hopefully wouldn't use too much battery by running though.. Is this a feasible solution that anyone could help with?

Low Ringer Volume

I drive a truck and can barely hear the ringer on this phone when going down the road. It's not just because of the ambient noise level. Never had a problem hearing my Droid Charge or even the orig Moto Droid before it. Any way to get a boost in the ringer volume on this phone? Running latest GummyNex ROM. I was excited when I saw DPS Manager but it has no effect on the ringer.
It is the ONLY downside I have with this phone, absolutely love it.
Volume + ...it's been posted everywhere try it out
Thanx Muchly !! Well worth $1.62 !! The free version had no effect, had to have access to the EQ

Speaker volume louder with screen off compared to screen on?

So, I bought an N1 from Expansys not that long ago and have generally quite enjoyed my time with it. (5.0.2 is a goddamn clusterf*** and clearly no one bothered to use the tablet in landscape orientation with headphones plugged in before finalizing the design, but I digress.)
I've just noticed something peculiar, though. The speaker volume seems to be substantially higher when the screen off rather than when the screen is on. In other words, if I'm playing music via the speakers with the screen on, for example, and I hit the power button, the volume jumps dramatically. Similarly, if the screen is off and music is playing, hitting the power button drops the volume back down. I'm completely stock and am running the latest Taiwan build.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? I've tried it out with Play Music and YouTube and with the equalizer on and off. Nothing makes a difference. This doesn't seem like a hardware issue, since the higher volume level works perfectly fine as far as I can tell. The speakers seem rather quiet with the screen on, so it would be super awesome if the N1 could just use the higher volume level, y'know, all the time.
What could be causing this issue? I'm running the same apps I always do. This is the first time I've encountered this kind of issue on an Android device. The closest I've come is a Nexus 6 that would get louder and quieter seemingly at random. But in that case, the volume seemed to go up and down continuously, whereas in this case there are only two different volume levels that are linked to the screen turning off or on. What gives? I'd like to blame this on 5.0.2, but I have no evidence to support that claim.

[Q]Fine volume adjustment

So, i recently got the D855, put MM stock rom on with root and TWRP, it's a pretty sweet upgrade from my galaxy s3, however I cannot seem to find fine adjustment for volume, even with 3rd party apps rom seems to reset volume to the set increments that volume buttons sit in. Now I'm cool with it being like this for media/notifications but with alarm... its either no volume or HEY JUMP OUT THE WINDOW END IS ENDING volume and up. utterly shocked me in the morning by surprise. wondering if there's any simple way to patch this, or whether if i get CM13 rom it'd let me fine adjust it and just keep the alarm volume lower (i tried stock google alarm too which is enough to wake me up tbh), i just want a quiet soothing tune to wake me up not a call to world war 3...
Other option is to learn to edit sound files to make ringtones quieter for the alarm, which seems like a lot of bother :/

Media Volume

Hello,
I don't know if it's just me but has anyone ever experienced volume increasing and decreasing when switching applications?
Whenever I'm listening to music on Poweramp I would normally need to set the volume to 85 percent in order to have a comfortable listening experience, when I switch to YouTube it gets deafening loud! When I switch back to Poweramp it goes wayyyy down... is this a feature if so can it be disabled?
Thanks
Not certain, but it could be related to the Media Volume Limiter? It's under Sounds, Volume, then hit the 3 dot menu. Adjust the limiter or turn it off. Not sure if it would help or not.
