[Q] Link Notifcations and Ringtone Volume - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm starting to get annoyed of the fact that i have to got to the setting to change the NOTIFICATIONS volume, where as i can adjust the RINGTONE volume just by using the Volume rocker.
Is there a way to do this without installing any app, i can live with flashing MODS, TWEAKS, or ADD-ONS...

When you turn up/down the volume in homescreen or just outside the apps dont you get expendable bars for other volumes?

I do if i press the "GEAR" beside the volume level...but what i want to know is if there's a way to link the RINGTONE VOLUME and NOTIFICATIONS VOLUME together, so that if i set the RINGTONE haflway NOTIFICATIONS will be set half way too automatically

App: Settings Extended

I was looking around for a way to do this last night and came across "Settings Extended" in Google Play. You can link Ringer and Notifications through the app, which changes the way the rocker works since when you adjust the Ringer Volume using the rocker it now adjusts notifications too.
I also added a Wifi Hotspot toggle and Flashlight toggle to my Notifications bar for easy access to those options through the same app. Pretty pleased with it.

I was hoping for a TWEAK/MOD rather than a new app... anybody?

[Q] Phone Ringtone and Notification Volume

Is there a way to link my phone ringtone and notification volume together?
On my G2x, under Settings > Sound > Volume, there was a checkbox to make the notification and ringtone volume the same. So when I pressed the volume down button to turn my ringtone volume down, it would also turn my notification volume down. But on the GSII, I can bring my ringtone volume down low, but my notifications will still blare. The only way to adjust the notification volume is by going all the way into the sound settings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a newborn at home, and when I'm home, i want my sounds low, but when I leave the house, I want everything back all the way up. I don't want to have to go into the sound settings each time I need to raise/lower my notification volume.
Maybe an app?
Thanks!
Get Quick Settings from the Market. It has that option. I only get that app for this exact reason.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
nice! works fantastic!
thanks!!!

Ring and Notification Volume aren't the same

Does anyone know how to make the ring and notification volume the same without having to adjust both in the settings?
It's really annoying to have my ring volume turned down, only to get a really loud text message notification shortly after.
Download Quick Settings from the market, it has an option to link the Ringer and Notification volumes so they work together. I never understood why they weren't controlled together in the first place.
Worked great thanks.

Cool. Thanks!
Thanks for the help. This must be a samsung thing because all the HTC phones I owned had an option to link notification and ring volume.

Cant use volume rocker Lockscreen

I have CM11 installed and I can't seem to use the volume rocker while i'm in the lockscreen. Is there a solution? Am I missing something in the settings app?

Do you mean media volume or ringer volume? Last time I checked, ringer volume cannot be changed straight from the lockscreen aside from the power menu's options (silent, vibrate, ring).
Are you trying to navigate between songs perhaps ? Like @tonytien said, we need to know what purpose you were trying to use this multipurpose button pair.
Nahh, I'm just trying to perhaps change the volume of my ringtone while using the volume rockers, I know I could do that when I was with stock rom and when I was on 10.2. Maybe it's a bug or am I missing something inside the settings.
I haven't used 10.2 enough to know since I've only used 11 with most of my time in the CM world. If ringer volume on lockscreen was ever a feature, it might have been removed. You could check the Buttons section in your settings, I think.

Use volume rocker always for media instead of notifications

This one is driving me crazy. How can I force the volume rocker to always control the media volume instead of notifications? I tried Wanam and Gravity Box without success. I am obviously rooted.
Annoys me as well. At the moment I use GravBox to auto expand the volume panel. Not ideal but it is one less click when adjusting the volume.
Lol, I do exactly the same thing, but it annoys me as hell. Who needs to exactly adjust his notification volume that often anyway.

Another Samsung orphan thread: Sound Settings

Is there seriously no way of setting individual volume levels for the ringtone and the notifications in vanilla android?!
Click volume rocker and the last volume change slider will appear. Click the drop down arrow on right side of slider and you can change individual volumes.
Sorry misread. I don't believe there is a way to change notification and ring separately
Is there a way to do it without root?
I like my notification volume reasonably quiet without it impacting the ring volume.
Sound profile in play store works well
