Adjust volume when phone is locked - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hi,
Is there any way to enable volume adjustment when the phone is locked? (using volume keys on the phone or on a headset)
When I was using CM on my old Nexus S I was able to do this.
I'm on Wicked v7 ROM, but I think this was the same also on stock.
Thanks

I actually want the opposite to happen. I don't want someone being able to mute my phone without me knowing. Running BeanStalk

I'm talking about the media volume actually. When I'm listening to music I would like to be able to raise or lower the volume without unlocking the phone.

You should be able to. I'm on Wicked v7 and can raise/lower volume when screen shut off and phone is lock.
Either with the buttons on the phone or headphones.
You could even skip to next or previous track with settings in Wicked Control.

Is there any setting to enable this?
I know about track control, but I'm more interested in volume.

I don't think you have to do anything, it just work like that. I don't remember having to enable it or anything.

Yeah it works fine just tapping up or down. I use my phone for music more than I use it for anything else and that and long press to skip are crucial to me. I'm running wicked 7 now as well

Maybe I'll try a full wipe and see if it works.

Make sure the loud volume warning is disabled
May need to intstall xposed and wanam for that. I just did a fresh install and notice that I can't change loud while screens locked until I unlock than check the loud warning than I can change while screen locked

I think there is an option ti control the volume while the phone is locked.

Can't find this option, where is it?

I am fully stocked.
When the phone is locked, to turn down the volume I just use the volume buttons, they work just fine.

I'm having exactly the same problem. I've gone in and disabled the loud volume warning in Xposed AND Wanam, and it isn't helping.
I'm wondering if those of us having difficulties chose something when installing with Aroma that was different from the people having no issues. Is there something we could have done differently on install? I'm starting to get really frustrated. 90% of what I use my phone for is music.
Also, are the other people having problems using the Music2sD feature from Xposed? Could that be creating an issue somewhere?

Note: When the screen is off, you cannot adjust the volume continuously by long holding the button. You have to press it multiple times separately to step thru the volume levels! It's a supposed safety measure so you dont blast it while trying to pull the phone out, which happened to me alot on my old phone. Maybe it works for some of you but u didn't notice because you only got +1 step?

I don't think it has anything to do with Xposed, since the issue was there even before I installed it. (I only installed it to try to SOLVE the issue)

I'm running cm10 and under Settings» lockscreen» Screen Security there is an option to unlock the screen using the menu key (hard key on far left). Just tried it out, works flawlessly. Unfortunately I can't help you find the app you need and flashing a rom without using the power button may be problematic. Best of luck to you!

I would love to get CM, but the only problem is that since my power button is stuck, it's gonna be a pain to flash. And, not only that, as it is right now, since my power button is stuck, I was able to put it into ODIN mode and restore to stock unrooted to take it in, but I'm afraid that I might flash, and then the power button magically un-sticks, and then I'm screwed, cause I can't unroot it. Anyways, just today and tomorrow left, so not so bad. I actually think I can take it.

[Q] How to use the volume button to go from volume --> vibrate --> silent no vibrate?
I had this on my Galaxy S2 and S1...I can't remember how I did it though.
I would like the phone to go from Volume --> vibrate --> slient with just the volume keys, as it is now I have to use the quick toggles to choose between vibrate and silent.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hrm well I am on clean rom but that's just stock debloated and perseus kernel. It's possible that functionality came from either of this but I don't think it did although of course I could be wrong. If I hit volume down it'll go from sound> vibrate> mute.

Stock drops the volume down and then to vibrate... no mute. As you drop the volume down, 1 step before vibrate still makes a tone, so thats not mute.
I came from a HOX, and that did the Volume down>mute>vibrate.

For some reason I'm on stock rom and mine goes from volume->vibrate->silence.

So.. I don't mean to sound like a troll at all, so please don't take it this way... Just a serious question...
When you are on a call... You can use the volume rocker to lower your in call volume. Have you tried that?
Also, rooting in and of itself shouldn't cause any changes to the phone other than granting super user privileges.

Another option would be do a factory reset and see what that does for you.

[Q] how do you turn off music volume warning?

Hey does any of you guys know how do I turn off the warning when I turn the volume up? It's getting quite annoying.. thanks in advance.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
The volume warring is a horrible feature, I'm trying to think of why it needs to popup every time. This must have been included for liability reasons.
My problem is that my headphones don't exactly sit close to ear with my helmet on, so they're too quite. Then I can't always grab my phone and close out the warning while I'm riding.
The only solution I've found for this problem is to install a different rom, I am using ReVolt right now. You can disable the warning in the sound settings.
I also would like to know. I want to disable the toast after setting an app as default as well. It's super annoying.

I have a thread with a tutorial explaining how to decompile and remove it, however, i have yet to encounter this "warning" on my device xD

Never mind just saw it now. Its a little Toast message. On other device its an entire pop up window. I am now going to find where its generated and kill it should be done in a little bit

This one's done. WOrking on the toast volume thing.
If you're rooted, you can try Xposed Framework. It's the best. Not only can you remove the warning, there is so much more to customize.

I don't think that will work. T-Mobile uses a toast instead of the normal window. So im not sure if that will work. Can give it a shot. I almost have it removed though.
Here you go guys. no more toast when you turn up volume. No more window when you select a default app.

Bleh, TouchJiz is affecting the volume steps mod. Go listen to music, and start the volume at low, and slowly increment the volume up to max one step at a time. It will get louder then go back to really quite, and then get louder again
Has anyone tried this on Canadian Videotron /Wind version ? Can I flash this without any risk of brick lol
I really want to turn this annoying popup that block the volume when using headphone buttons I have to take out the phone from pocket unlock the click ok. What kind of stupid Developer this :S

If it's the same hardware then it should work. If it doesn't work it will just not boot. To fix that just flash your ROM or restore the original framework.jar file.
