Is there a way to disable this function? I really don't need it. I have not once since I got the phone used it, only by mistake...
And when using some camera apps, with volume key as shutter. I like my ringtone to be static thank you.
It would be cool if it could be changed to control media volume at all times.

What do you mean by "useless for all of us here"? Am I really the only one who is bothered by this? I have accidentally put the ringervolume to very low values a number of times without knowing. The whole function just seems strange to me.To bad there isn't a mod around for it (or to bad that I'm strange, as it seems).
thanks
maybe you may remap keys with an app, but you must be rooted first. you can unmap buttons at all i think, but about only media volume i can't help you, nobody thought about before, solution: you have to get used to this!

Thanks, I am rooted but un- or remapping the keys is not really what I was looking for. I still want to be able to adjust speakervolume during calls etc... I guess I will have to get used to it.
But is this function really used by people? I am curious, please someone elaborate.
There must be some line of code that goes: while not playing media and vol key is pressed- change ringvolume. Just change that to mediavolume, that was what I was thinking.
Anyway, will drop the subject if no-one is interested.
It is a problem to me, too. I think the default function of volume buttons could be the media volume, not ringtone volume.

Don't buy smartphones then if volume buttons are annoying. Volume buttons is a must for a lot of people, that's why they exist. If phone producers wouldn't make phones without volume buttons, no one should bye these phones. Eventually, you can root your phone and delete volume buttons I key mapping.

Would not be surprised if Apple patented that lol. But not the ability to switch between ringer and mediavolume. My phone would be perfect with something like this implemented, have not found any other annoyances at all.
Have you tried Volume Locker it's free and I used this on my DHD which kept changing.
Thank you! Just installed it, and it seems to do the trick. I also got this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1656096

I have the same problem and still looking for solution
Hi,
It's a shame, that Android doesn't have this feature, but the IPhone.
I've a Samsung Galaxy S3, but the same problem - it would be great if somebody could create a MOD for this problem.
Tim
It would be great to have a mod for volume buttons to change media volume instead of ringer.
For ringer I just use two options, vibrate only or vibrate + ringtone. I don't change ringer volume except incidentally, which is annoying.
I believe that CyanogenMod can remap volume keys behavior.
It's amazing that people reply to this thread before reading the original message.
What I have gathered so far is that the default android build does not allow to decouple the ring volume from the buttons for some mysterious reason.
CyanogenMod roms do have an option that takes care of that!
For phones that do not have CM available some alternatives were posted before.
any solution for stock rooted phones?

greetings!
Just recently i got a Motorola Defy, and to be honest the top power button seems a little wimpy.
i have downloaded two apps so far to circumvent the power key;
Tap Tap App and Fix Broken Power Button.
the following problems occur when attempting to power the phone down.
In Fix Broken Power Button the widget is completely inoperative.
in Tap Tap App the screen will flash dark, then immediately come to the lock screen.
i believe this has to do with the Defy's internal workings, and have seen other people have similar problems,
see http://forum.xda-developers.com/arch...t-1017269.html
is there hope for my phone?
thank you.
Get it replaced...
Sent from my MB525 using XDA Premium App
All buttons on the Defy are "wimpy wimpy" because they are NOT the actual buttons, they are just a plastic cover over your real buttons so your phone doesn't die if you press one underwater.
The real buttons are sealed, otherwise moving them, taking pics with physical buttons or doing anything while your phone is under water would lead to water leaks inside.
About the issue with soft-poweroff, its a known issue related to how to shutoff screen on the Defy works, I dont know if any dev solved the issue

hi, thank you for the quick reply!
do you have a defy yourself? I ask because my power key is jiggly and feels weak compared to the volume keys.
having an alternate method of off/on' ing my phone would make me feel a lot more secure.
what kind of coding would I need to learn in order to learn the cause of the broken widget and fix it?
you mention using a physical key to take pictures with, but there is no such button on the defy. is there a way to map a camera button to, say, a volume key?
have you ever submerged your phone in water? I want to take under water pictures but am apprehensive to try.
why is there no longer a cake in my work urinal?
i'm sure you'll need plenty of time to pontificate on these questions, if anyone has any insight on anything mentioned in this post, please let me know!

Some camera applications allow that configuration. The one that comes with the CyanogenMod7 rom (which I'm using ) allows it for sure.

Yes, I have submerged it while recording movies and it works fine. Make sure your rubber covers are in place and not loose, specially the mini usb one. Don't try to use the touch screen while wet, it doesn't work. The mic and the speaker will work again when dry.

- Yeah I own a Defy, and I really love my phone (pretty much after installing CM7, is just amazing)
- yep is normal the power button feeling lose, is just like I said, those are not the real buttons, just covers that presses the actual buttons under them.
If im not wrong you would need to learn the Android API and JAVA to do it yourself.
- About the physical key, that is easy to obtain, you can either use ButtonreMapper or search the Defy Photo app, is a really cool and simple camera that lets ya take pictures using the vol keys.
- Yep too, ive went into the pool with my Defy, took pictures, videos and more underwater. Just be SURE the ribbons that cover the USB and the audio jack are clean. Dust, fibers and other stuff could get between the cover and the phone and leak water in.
to this question: "why is there no longer a cake in my work urinal?"
whaa?
I use Vignette.apk full and Demo version.
Why I cannot set volume keys to take a picturs in full version?
The first option in settings is to make the volume button as cam shooter.
Vignette full version don't have select box for volume key action.

Hi,
I have created a simple app for changing master volume. This app would be helpful for those who do not wish to use physical keys. This app works in dev unlocked device and greater.
Finally, thanks to Fiinix for the dllImport project.
Update 1:
========
Added Screen brightness slider also. Not sure if it is really needed by users.
Though the values are updated to registry, there is not much difference in brightness while sliding.
Thanks to Heathcliff for WP7RootTools sdk.

That did it, works fine. Was waiting for something like this.
At a guess, this shouldn't even require interop-unlock, much less full-unlock or root-unlock. Is that correct? I know you can change the volume level using DllImportProject on just dev-unlock only.
Few improvements imho:
*mute button should unmute if phone allready muted
*max level button
*arround 3 custom buttons (that you can previously set the vol level to w/e you want)
*a metro icon
cheers
In my not full-unlock rom of my HTC Mozart work well. Thanks.

@GoodDayToDie,
Yes, all dev unlocked devices will be supported. It doesn't need full unlock.
@fredsky2,
Will update with a metro icon and preset button. Max vol could be configured in preset itself.
The api does not have support for mute. I could only reduce the volume to 0. Even if I store the value locally, it will not be useful if physical keys are also used in parallel.
a most excellent idea, thanks. will provide feedback once i actually try it out.
definitely a nice application.
and i do agree with the suggestions by @fredsky2, plus a 'return to default 15 volume' button.
i don't see the use of Custom Buttons beyond a Max, Default & Mute button.
i also suggest removing the Splash Screen, application should load more swiftly.
if you want to do a Mute/Unmute button, you might...
when Mute button is pressed:
01. catch & save the current volumeValue
02. change volumeValue to 0
03. change button Title to Unmute or hide buttonMute to reveal buttonUnmute
when [Un]mute Button is pressed:
01. grab savedVolumeValue
02. change volumeValue to savedVolumeValue
03. change Button Title to Mute or hide buttonUnmute to reveal buttonMute

Oh My God! Thanks OP for coming out with this. Your timing couldn't be any better....
I just posted a dismantling guide for the Titan in the Titan fora and I accidentally broke the data strip that connects the volume hard keys to the device. Much to my surprise (or lack thereof), there is no way to change volume without these keys (or with a headset that allows you to do this). Your app is literally the answer to my prayers
Thanks again!
@sh4d0w86,
Improved loading speed of app by removing unwanted dll's. It should be now faster.
Works on my Windows Phone Samsung Focus, Chevron Unlocked, Mango . Here are my suggestion.
1. Live Tile to Mute, Bring Volume to a Defined Level.
2. Colour of the bar can change from green to yellow to red depending if volume is low, medium and high.
- Live Tile can also follow the color codes
3. Support for Vibrate Mode and Live tile for it.
4. Fancy Stuff :
- Let user tilt the phone to change volume.
- Support with Talk Me to set volume to a desired level.
And Like sh4d0w86 said, sync when volume is changed with hardware button.
---------- Post added at 12:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 PM ----------
If possible bring in the profiles where I can have combination of Volume Level, Vibration etc to change it at a certain time or when I need it.
@Purushoth
Very useful app, works very well on my Omnia 7 with custom rom.
Big thanks.
@sh4d0w86,
Added custom buttons as you guys wished.
I tried to change icon. But I am very poor in design. Please feel free to change the icon and post.
could you re-upload Power Slider?
i have downloaded three times and each time the file is corrupt.

Not working correctly on my HTC 7 Pro (fully unlocked)
Volume control working fine.
Brightness changes nothing..
Apps showing me : "Error occured: The System cannot find the file specified"

Pretend you're using some non-stock headset (because stock one is a complete garbage) that has more than 1 button on it.

You plug it in any android device -- these buttons do what they should, change the volume.
You plug it in an HTC Vision -- these buttons switch tracks for some weird reason! (well, the reason is not that 'weird' -- it's just HTC decided to use these functions on their headset)
Some of you may have tried to edit .kl files, but probably without success.
The secret is that Android detects the headphone jack as another device, that has no configuration created for it (at least on ICS and JB).
That causes the system to use "generic" key layout mapping which clearly says:
Code:
key 163 MEDIA_NEXT
key 165 MEDIA_PREVIOUS
key 226 HEADSETHOOK
The solution for this is pretty simple. We need to find a necessary device, create a configuration for it and put it into /system directory.
Long story short, putting h2w_headset.kl to /system/usr/keylayout (don't forget to set permissions to rw-r--r--) will make headset buttons work like they do on all "normal" devices.
By the way, if you're using CyanogenMod, you're not losing an ability to switch tracks! "Volume rocker track skip" option also works for headset buttons (and you can also double-tap the Play/Pause/PTT button to go to the next track)

Probably a software one, but quite difficult to fix.
All Android-based devices control headset buttons by measuring a resistance between two pins: 0 Ohms (short-circuit) for play/pause/call (this also works with iPhone headsets), plus 220 and 600 Ohms for volume or track switch keys.
This is controlled by a kernel headset driver, which acts as a "mapper" between resistance values and key codes.
Next, key codes are passed to the Android framework, where these key codes are mapped to their "behaviour" (that's where .kl files comes into place)
I don't think this is a hardware issue, because your device detects _every_ resistance change, but always assigns the "default" key code for it.
If it was a hardware fault (let's say, device couldn't detect resistances lower than 100 Ohms), volume buttons wouldn't work at all.

+1 I am surprised nobody including myself has brought that up yet. It would be fantastic!!
I just realized that they are together and it's really annoying....
I am with you, it is driving me crazy. Basically all the original development roms work, I have tried Vanir (even donated, it works great) and the cm rom. I ran Vanir as my daily driver for about three weeks. The only issue I have with these are (and it may be my imagination) is the sound and camera. With stock you get Beats and I swear it sounds better. You also get the stock camera that has ZOE (which I don't fully appreciate yet but never will if I don't play with it). Also no Blinkfeed (oh, well, darn!) Audio Control from Play store is the only app that I found that will compensate, and it works pretty good. I wish I did not have to use a 3rd party app to make this work. I think it works by tricking the phone, sort of. You select custom ringer and select that level. Notifications and ringtone are still the same but it grabs the call and resets the volume before it rings and then lets it go after it's done. Very clumsy way of explaining but I know it works and allows me to use whatever notification sound I want for individual apps. Most of the other apps out there will over ride these settings and use a default selected tone.
I looked at the Audio Control app and a few others. None of them really did what I want. Like you said.... clumsy approach.
I keep thinking one of the ROMs has to have this feature. The CM 10.1 JB variant for my Droid3 has this, so I am not sure why it does not show up more often. If I was talented enough coder ( and brave enough ) I would build a ROM myself.

Yep, me too. I script a little bit but any of the code that I've fooled with is copy, paste, cross fingers. Like I said above though, Vanir and the CM roms have this feature, but you do have to go into the sound settings and uncheck the box that says link them together. I think all the ASOP based roms are like this. I'm giving Ecliptic (Sense based) a spin right now. If you hold down the home key on this one you get the expanded menu with quick settings, and you can independently manipulate them there, but it does nothing. I hope that at some point this will be picked up and fixed. I've posted a few requests for this feature in the various threads but only one developer came back with a reply and it was basically that he didn't know how. I just don't think there is enough people that notice this and are bothered by it for a developer to look into it. Same thing happened when I needed a kernel with driver support for the Galaxy Tab plus. I was trying to crack WEP for pen testing with the tablet and could not put the nic in promiscuous mode. I finally made my own kernel but only with limited success. Just don't have the talent.
"Ringer & Notification Volume Unlink" module for xposed works though it does not show them unlinked in settings. I have an old Sound Manager app and sure enough, it worked.

grat tutorial!
Is it possible to use other "key actions" like
- volume up
- volume down
- mute
...
where I can find list of all actions that can be bound with keys?

I guess it might be, my volume up \ down was working already through the regular Key mapping software, i think the volume was more universal over the whole unit,. and skip was working for standard apps like radio and the standard media player, but i use JetAudio, and needed this to pass the function through to those apps...

Sorry i haven't been replying guys,
I really only needed to fix my (Skip Forward \ Skip Previous) keys so i stopped learning after i solved my issue.
I'm guessing this app is pretty powerful, and there are many possibilities but personally, i don't know how to do anything else because i haven't looked into it.
I want to thank Geniee33 one more time for this great tutorial(and of course the creator of the app).
This tutorial and the app was really really helpful as the default music player is absolutely useless.
Thanks my friend.

Does anyone know the answer to this?
I have a W204 Mercedes C-Class and would love the ability to scroll left to right through my apps using the navigation wheel in my centre console then select the app by pressing down on the wheel. :good:
Hello,
I have an Erisin car stereo (KGL) that works with Android 6.0.1 and mcu MTCE and I can not get MTCDTools 1.9 running with PowerAmp.
I set MTCDTools, the previous and next steering wheel buttons are well recognized by the application, but if I run PowerAmp and I press previous or next, I just have a "Beep", but it is not pass nothing!
Before updating the firmware, I had the mcu MTCD and I used the version 1.6 of MTCDTools and it worked very well.
Can someone help me? Thank you.
I know i'm late to this party but it seems on the MTCD/E devices MTC keys may not work so I will have to go this route to remap keys I assume? Does anyone know if this supports double/triple pressing of a button to assign different functions?
Thanks
Dave

I only learnt how to use this app yesterday, so please excuse my basics, but because i couldnt find any howto's on this,... this is my attempt to help others.
First get the latest APK from this site.
Install it.
Repeat the process for 'Previous'
Exit out to Home.
Open up your 'Other' media player.
In my case it was Jet Audio.
Skip Forward / Back was now working via the steering wheel controls.
Volume was always working, as its a system wide thing.
Im sure there is much more that can be done with this app, im just a novice with Android at this stage tho.
Hope this helps.
