How do you disable the volume notification bar? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey guys first post here on this forum. Love all your support and work so i hope someone would be able to help with with a little modification I would like to do.
Does anyone else find the volume notification icon/bar rather annoying when using the volume rocker? Whenever im watching a movie on the device and i would like to adjust the volume, the volume notification bar takes up half the screen and as you know lasts for a second or two. Is there a way you can disable this from occurring and also disable the feedback you get from using the rocker aswell?
Cheers

I'm using MX Video player, and it uses it's own "volume slider".

[Q] control all volume levels with the volume buttons?

hey guys.
i currently use Volume Button Controller and it does an excellent job at keeping my volume levels where I set them. unfortunately i have to set them through the actual app. if i change the volume up or down with the volume keys it only affects the ringer or media, depending on where i do it.
is there an app, or better way a framework edit, that will make the volume buttons control all the volume levels at once? i'm willing to try smali or xml edits as necessary. just need guidance as to where.
thanks!
I use audio manager and use the widget or you can load it in the taskbar. It will let you adjust system volume, media volume, ring volume, in call and alert volume. Nice and easy.
yeah Volume Button Controller has a widget as well and it works well. that's not my question.
i'm asking if there is a way to make it a permanent change so that the volume buttons control ALL volume levels simultaneously without having to open an app or use a widget.
BUMP...
nobody has ever felt the need for this mod?
here's from JsChi, who can do anything with Android but as I understand is very busy with all the other requests:
I'm thinking it certainly would be possible to do what you want, and it would likely be in framework.jar

anyone?
I found your post because I was googling for the exact same thing. Here's the only solution I could find... search for Master volume control by SanelS in the market.
I was going to try it out, but there are some negative comments in the market that made me hesitate... I also would hate to turn down the master volume and realize in the morning that it turned down the alarm sound as well.
Let me know if you end up trying it out...

Bump. I'm looking for the same thing...
There are some ways you can do it with tasker. I've got my audio drop to zero when on silent (but not on vibrate) and I also have it reduced when I plug headphones in. I can post my profiles if you are interested.
I am pretty sure you can do the same for the volume buttons.

Adjusting Dialer volume...It's doable...but I don't know how...

Alright, so, I noticed at one point that the dialer volume was really low, and I didn't mind it one bit...because I was looking for a way to get it to lower. Now it's back to normal...and I'm back to finding a way, has anyone else experienced their dialer volume being different at times? What did you do before or after the change?
When I installed SWITCHPRO...it lets you go into the info secion (free one even) and then click on the volume icon and the you can change the system volumes here. That's how I do it....

To adjust the dialer volume, go into the dialer and press press the volume up/down buttons.

Uhm...wouldn't that just increase/decrease the ringer volume? I understood that he wanted to change the sound of the system clicks/beeps/sounds.

Right I know there are tools for this, but I did it without any tools at all...I'm pretty sure it wasn't coming out of the speaker on the back...but softly out of the ear piece.

Volume controls dont work

<Rant> I loved the OneV when I got it, and I still like it but everyday seems to begin with a new bug.
First Lockscreen shortcuts, then after noticing the thread here, I checked my phone for lightleak and noticed my phone too had the problem but didnt make too much of it since it dodnt interfere too much in my use.
</Rant>
But now the Volume controls dont work. Works nowehere, Media, In call, Ringer volume everything is stuck at whatever level they were at.
When i press the button the screen shows as if the volume decreases, but actually there is no effect. Even if Mute media volume, music plays at full volume, my in call is stuck at mimum volume and I can hardly hear people.
Any known fixes?
P.S: Havent installed any audio apps, just using stock music player
BUMP anyone?
No problem with me....

You have the issue with volume from beginning or after some days of using? This can't be a hardware problem, try to restore factory settings...

[Q] lack of volume lock for the rocker is quite annoying!

Is anyone else genuinely annoyed with the fact there is no volume lock option on this device? When I want to lower the volume with the rocker on say the lock screen, only the ringer volume goes down, and I have to click the gear icon to manually adjust the volume for the notificatons/media/etc.
I know there are manual volume profile apps/widgets out there, but maybe I'm just old school and want to use the rocker to adjust my volume down for all possible audio output at once.
Any workarounds known out there?
I miss something like the iphone silent switch but it's something we just have to get use to. Simple sound widget seems to do nicely. I just pull down notification bar click it and chose from custom profiles.

T-Mobile ROM volume issues?

There are two issues that I find annoying with the volume settings. I believe these issues are because of this T-Mobile ROM and not stock Android 4.2.2, but I could be wrong. While this issue might be a thread for troubleshooting, I believe this is not something we users can fix, but a ROM issue that T-Mobile should probably fix sometime soon.
The issues are the notification volume not properly being linked with the ringer volume and the second is the warning we get about turning up the volume when headphones are plugged in; that is just plain annoying, and I wish our ROM would allow us to disable this warning message. If anyone has found an easy way to do this, please let us know.
The notification volume does not seem to get set up or down when using the volume button on the side of the phone. On my older HTC phone with Android 2.3.4, turning the volume up or down with the side volume button turns the phone's ringer up/down but not the notifications (not while in a call but while walking into a meeting, for instance, and trying to make the phone ringer and notifications quiet). Further more, when I go into settings to access volumes (music, ringtones, notification, system) or I press the volume button and quickly access volume settings from the volume pop-up (ringtone, media, notification, system) there is no option/functionality to have ringtone and notification volumes linked. Further still, I have a widgetsoid volume widget to access volume controls that does allow me to set "use ringer volume for notifications", and I see the volume slider for notifications greyed out and moving with the ringtone volume setting, BUT the notification volume doesn't actually adjust with the ringtone volume when using the volume button.
Okay, I know that is a long winded (its just thorough) way of explaining the volume issues I've observed, in total.
I think either this T-Mobile ROM has broken the previous and useful feature of having these two volumes linked, or it is a problem with Android 4.2.2.
Anyone have anything to add? Maybe a fix I am overlooking? Anyone know how to also disable the annoying warning about having my headphones turned up too loud?
Thanks!
Volume warning is fixable through root and nottach framework or a custom ROM. My ROM has the ability to sync any volume with the ringer volume.

I agree. I have had some issues with volume on my phone. Interestingly, when I was running the CyanogenMod nightly, I noticed all my notifications/ringers were MUCH louder (it actually startled me the first time my phone rang), and of course I had the option to lock the two volumes together.

I think I can pull the volume synchronization from my ROM and put it into an app.
