"Read aloud incoming text messages volume is very low - Nokia Lumia 900

In settings/speech you have the option have text messages read out when you have a Bluetooth/headset on.
I use this feature a lot when driving... However, the volume/voice (when text is being read) is very low.
Is there a way to adjust it? Or is it predefined.
PS: if you try to adjust the volume while the text is being read, it automatically ends it and adjusts the main phone volume instead.
Thank you for any help

Volume regulation

Hi,
We've got two volume regulations in BA: one for ringtone, other for system (mda clicks etc..). The problem here is, that though i don't want to have any clicking and other sounds or have their volume low, I want to keep my message incoming sound high.
Is there a way to solve it? - Incoming message sound volume depending on Incoming call volume?

Hi Belcik,
You can turn off all this click etc. from windows in:
Start -> Settings -> Personal Tab -> Sounds & Notification
if this is what u meant
Unfortunatelly not....
This is what I mean: I cannot set all volumes in BA to minimum, except incoming calls and messages.
For calls is separate slider, for overall BA volume is another. When i set ringing to max, other phone sounds to minimum, the sound of incoming message will be set to minimum as well, and the only way to have it louder is to move slider of overall BA loudness (with all other BA sounds) to max...
That's the problem
Or maybe it's just the ROM ver??? This one sometimes behaves strange...

Hi Belcik,
My way of solving this will be to remove all not needed sounds (as in my earlier post) and leave only those one You need - like incomming message. I do not know any other way to do it.

or orbit

does anyone know how to stop the o2 notification noise when you send a text message? the one that chimes and then onscreen tells you your balance?
also does anyone know how to get the keyboard to stop autocompleting words (or sudjesting words as i type) as it slows down the input speed of the keyboard
Not sure if this is what you are after:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSNoSentMsg=1 (Dword, ''Settings' key may need to be created) - this disables the "Message Sent" pop-up when sending SMS/MMS
To turn off the auto complete goto Start/Settings/Input and theres a tab for "Word Completion".
tried the autocomplete and it worked but the sms notification couldnt find the registry key. i dont need the bubble removed but just the ding sound everytime i send a text etc to stop it confirming my credit amount by noise ebveytime i use the phone or text etx its the notify wma but i cant change it
simple my friend...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
At last - a question I can answer without sounding like a newbie!!!
The balance reminder is a sim feature activated by O2, all you need to do is call PAYG customer services and they will turn it off for you....simple...
Hope this helps....
i wanted the balance reminder to tell me how much credit is left but just wanted the notify sound deactivated cause its so anoying. this is part of the phone and 02 wont be able to just turn of the noise and i cant delete or change the notify.wma tone in windows as it is read only otherwise i could write over with a silent notify.wma tone.
in sounds and notifications under notifications
you can pick messaging: new text message
and uncheck play sound
hi did that but that only stopd the sound on incomming messages but any that i send (and after making a call as well) still set the niose off.

Text Message Ringer Question

Is there any kind of program or way i can assign text ringers to certain people instead of having one main ringer for each text i receive?

separating the Ring and Notification volume levels

Anyone have any sort of work around to enable independent control of the ringer and notification volume levels in ICS? Do any of the custom Roms have this ability?

No, they don't. Try this. Download Lightflow if you don't already have it, and try and set the notification tone for texting through that. I read somewhere the other day that the Lightflow notification will either override the global system volume or the other way around. I'm not exactly sure but download Lightflow and poke around in there.
It had something to do with setting the text volume in lightflow and the ringer volume with the global notifications.
Goodluck.
Thanks, I'll give that a try.

I have been using a profile application for a work around just like lightflow is doing, except with more functionaliTY. Basically I have been using Setting Profiles to set an incoming text messages or SMS message always to a profile with a particular ringtone, at a particular volume level. Same for phone calls. Then set exceptions to profiles for vibrate, silent, etc. That way at night I can tell my phone to go to silent but with an exception for phone calls. This is basically saying be quiet for notification sounds, but not for phone calls. There are other exceptions and possibilities but the end result is separate ringer and notification volumes. I can explain more if you are interested.
Does this work with other notifications like Google* or Twitter as wella sms?

Unfortunately I don't think so. But I also use LightFlow and I don't see where it lets you choose the volume level of the notification so it doesn't quite do the job either.
What I do is set my ringer volume to what I want it to be for notifications (any notification as controlled by the program the notification is coming from). Then I set rules for incoming calls and SMS (which is what SettingProfiles supports) to sound at a different ringer volume. That way I have effectively "separated" my volumes and still am able to have unique ringtones for the different applications that support it. Examples are:
1. Make a profile for Silent
2. Make a profile for Ringer set to max
3. Make rule in SettingProfiles for incoming calls to activate the Ringer profile
4. Put phone in Silent profile (ringer speaker completely muted so no ring or notifications)
5. Phone call comes in and Incoming call rule activates the Ringer profile for that call
The result is all notifications are silenced. I get an incoming call and it triggers the ring rule so my phone will still ring. Once the incoming call stops (either i answer it or it goes to vmail or whatever), it exits the Ringer rule and goes back to the state it was in before, which is my Silent profile.
The way I'm doing it, you don't need an application that handles notifications for each application. It's just changing your ringer volume based on different conditions. It only supports incoming call, unread SMS/MMS, schedule, time period, etc, though. But that's fine for me because I usually want all notifications to be whatever volume I've set my speaker to, except for phone calls and text messages, which under certain conditions, I always want to be allowed to sound, and sound loudly at maximum volume.
I use LightFlow to repeat notify for text messages and missed calls and change the notifications for various apps it supports, but all that is for is changing the LED, ringtone, repeat notify, etc. It doesn't do anything for the volume of any of those notifications, at least not specifically supported in the application anyway.
I use SettingProfiles to change the VOLUME of my speaker based on rules and priorities and use LightFlow to change the TYPE of notifications I receive in various applications.

[Q] silence text

This may be a silly question but of course typically to silence a text notification you would hit the volume rocker, but for some reason when my notification goes off (being a downloaded ringtone not an in phone tone) it is not muted when I hit the rocker...is there something missing or is there just a bug
