Notification Volume Control - Survey/HELP - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello all,
When I got my Nexus 7 with 4.1 I noticed that Google put back the ability to control the Notification volume separately from the main volume. They added a little button at the end of the volume slider that when clicked would expand the volume slider into to two sliders one for main volume and one for notifications. I was excited to see this and assumed that it would come to my phone (where it would be way more useful) when I received the JB update (VZW).
Well I got the update and... nope not there.
Then I stumbled across this:
http://support.google.com/nexus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2590464&topic=2590214&ctx=topic Look for Notification Volume
That clearly states the phone should have it. I then talked to google support and they tell me they can't help me and that the "carrier" probably changed it.
I then asked a friend who just got a GNEX from the play store if she has this ability and she said "NO".
So does anyone (besides rooted folk) have this ability? if so which carrier?
Thanks.

Anybody? Yes or no and which carrier would be helpful.

Volume settings

Anyone know how to separate the ring and notification volumes - does it require custom ROM and/or kernel?

Try this app, someone on Nexus forums says it works. Next time do a quick google search aswell, since all I did was use your keywords and found some answers (if they helped ofc).
Doesn't work, which is why I posted here... :/
i would like to know as well?.i use quick setting..used to work on other phones..but that is weird we cannot separate the volume of notification and ringer..

You can use RingLeader from the Market as a work around, but it's a pain to set up and you have to tweak all the different app settings individually - which is a real pain for adjusting notification settings...

Yes. Either wait for some new weather to come into your area (i.e. different that it currently is) or just toggle Google Now on/off in Google now ---> settings --> Google now --> Top right corner toggle on/off
I see this question is going to get asked a LOT once JB goes public.

I think so too. Google really needs an "always" or "permanent" option for their notifications and cards so they aren't swiped away or deleted so easily!
wather notification is pretty cool, the first day i swipped it out some times but it returned always.. now there isn't anymore

[Solved][CM10] Ehnhanced Notifications Disabled

Hello everyone
I've switched from CM7 on my old Nexus One to Galaxy Nexus and CM9, which was updated later to CM10.
I know everyone will tell me I've done a wrong thing, but I restored my whole phone apps/configuration from my old phone using TitaniumBackup: I have to say except for 1-2 apps, it worked just as I wished.
After few days of CM10 and watching other phones around me, I found out that Enhanced Notifications are already enabled in the nightlies, but they seem to be disabled on mine!
At this point I'm looking for some advice for enabling this feature. For sure, factory reset is the fastest option, but I will forget about the enhanced notifications rather than going through the whole factory reset thing.
I really don't need the full instructions here. A very brief hint can do the trick for me.
Thanks
Is it a specific to any one app or all of them? Because not many apps actually support enhanced notifications yet. Gmail is one that does.

Honestly, I never had the enhancements on my phone, so I don't know for sure on which apps they should appear.
Gmail gives long notifications (some content of the email), but no buttons. I think this is it for now.
But for missed calls for example, there should be some buttons, which are missing.
You mean the issue refers to phone app? nice idea. but I don't know whether phone app is not sending them, or notification bar doesn't receive.
Can you introduce me some app with the same feature support, so I can test?

Gmail isn't supposed to have buttons, just long message preview. The expanded notifications aren't always expanded. Drag down on it with 2 fingers. It should have buttons for a missed call.
Easiest way to check expandable notifications is to take a screenshot.
It's a huge shame for me that I didn't know this double finger trick.
thanks a lot

By the way: the notifications are never expanded on my phone. How can I change the default settings?

I think it just depends on if you've got other notifications already showing. If you've got none it should default to expanded.

[Q] Alert slider customization ?

Hey guys,
Just a quick question here : Is there any mod/tools to allow more customization for the alert slider ?
I'd like to setup it like "Sound / Vibrate / Silent", or, at least, to change the orders of the actual states (Silent when at the bottom, sound when at the top).
I had a few case where the phone switched to silent when it slide it in my pocket... A bit annoying :/
Thanks !

Pie - Volume Buttons Slider(s)???

So pie arrived. Have not read much on new features so was surprised by the volume button opening
two sliders to control the media and ringtone volumes. Was touching them to see how they worked
and the ringtone slider disappeared. Now all I have is the media volume slider. Have been unable to find
anything on there being two sliders or how to get the second one back.
Came here hoping for answer.

If a ringtone or notification is making a sound at the same time you press the vol button, it'll appear. They removed that in Pie. Google I mean, not Motorola. They called it a "new feature", which it isn't. It's an unwanted regression. Same thing with the expandable notification toggles. Google scrapped that too. Most GSIs have added it back to Pie. If you want it on stock though, you'll have to decompile and edit the framework-res.apk. Apktool was broken for all G6, and G7 models last time I checked. I don't know if that's been fixed yet. Without it, adding that back to stock is the fevered dream of a madman.

Okay, I believe that's the Republic Wireless version.
Anyway, there is an app on the Play Store that will add a second slider on your home screen when you press the volume button.
The app is called Button Mapper by Aaron Seagert.
You will need to purchase the pro version if you want to add the second volume slider.
If you decide to go that route and you need help with getting it to work please feel free to ask me.
Appreciate the info - will check it out.
I guess I'm trying to figure out as to why the 2 sliders initially appeared and then the one disappeared.
(Figure it is somewhere in the Pie settings.)
