Adjust ringtone and message volume

Hi all,
Is there possible to adjust the ringtone and message volume separately?
I tried adjust the volume and it seem they are together. This make me a big problem because if I put max, my ringtone is acceptable but message volume is damn LOUD. If adjust lower, ringtone is soft and message is acceptable.
Please help me :crying:
You can edit ringtone sound to make it louder using sound editor. Or make message sound quieter

You can also mute the ringtone by just pressing on the volume down button on any home screen. It only effects the ringtone. Not media or alarm sounds. If you do it, look to the right side of the window that pops up. You'll see a gear icon (for lack of a better term). Touch it and you can set them all from there.
Yes, exactly. Just as I thought.
I have a HTC One X as well, and there it works just as its supposed to.
However it does not work on my M8. As soon as I mute the ringtone the alarm mutes as well. And if I try to turn the volume up for the alarm, it just slides right down again. There must be a bug.
Any suggestions to fix this without doing a factory reset?
Just upgraded to MM, and its working now

Work around(s) for enabling top speaker for ringtones / notifications?

I as well as many other previous Nexus 6p owners have been noticing that ringtones / notifications only come out of the bottom speaker of the Pixel 2 XL. The irony of this is that any app besides the "Settings" app has all sound coming out of both speakers. Is there a program / workaround anyone knows of? I don't care if I have to root my phone; I want to use my dual front facing speakers!
Thanks,
~Mike
Too bad this apparently is not considered a bug, its just how its suposed to work. In my opinion its pretty dumb not to allow both speakers on incoming calls/notifications from Google.
I'm getting sounds out of both speakers when my phone rings. Not sure if this happened before I updated to 8.1, but I don't think so. Tested it with more than one ringtone, stock and custom. Now, my problem is the screen won't come on when the phone rings. I hope an update to the phone app fixes this soon.
Yes my also only the bottom one firing. Any solution?
Bumping this up, any solution?
Can someone please make a mod to enable dual speakers for ringtones?
Currently.. i am studying about sound mod on pixel 2 oreo 8.1.

I use a Tasker profile to get around this issue. Basically, I monitor the status of calls, and when the phone is ringing, I play my ringtone as media. Then as soon as the call is answered or ignored (offhook or idle), the exit task stops the media. I just set my actual ringtone in settings to "none". Other than that, it behaves exactly like a ringtone should. My task also matches the media volume to the ringtone volume while ringing, then restores the previous media volume setting. That way, if your phone is on vibrate, it won't still ring out loud. I can do a detailed write up on how I did it if anyone needs it.

That sounds like a great idea that I'd like to try. Can you please share that profile?
Like I said in other posts, sound does come out of both speakers with calls and notifications. When you're choosing a sound in settings, it does indeed only come out of the bottom speaker. I can't believe I'm the only one who has sounds coming out of both speakers when a call comes in. I've tested it with multiple sounds, too.

Confused with what you are saying. Are you saying that when you choose a ringtone in settings you no longer have it coming out of only the bottom speaker?

Yes. It only comes out of the bottom speaker when I'm picking the sound. When someone calls, I hear it from both speakers. I've tried this with both custom and system sounds.

I have attached my prj.xml I have literally never shared a Tasker project so I hope this is sufficient! If you have any questions, let me know!

Thanks a lot! I've only used profiles and tasks in Tasker before, but your project imported just fine. All I had to do was change your task's ringtone to mine and set my phone's ringtone to none. Now to wait for someone to call me.

Yes it does and it's great! I figured out how to test it by calling my cell phone from Google Voice/Hangouts on my PC.

ccoulterjg1 - please provide detailed instructions on how to get tasker profile to resolve the issue of the ring volume using the ring speaker configuration instead of the media speaker configuration, which should resolve the issue, as media volume is quite loud and ring volume is not (I need to be able to hear my phone ring when I am sleeping, and on-call).

Question Separate notification volume

Is there a way to separate the ring tone volume from the rest of the notification volume? I want my ring tone to be loud enough to hear it but I don't need the rest of my notifications as loud.
Thanks

You should be able to do it in the sound settings.
I can do it, but I'm on LineageOS. Maybe OxygenOS allows the same thing.
(Sorry my screenshot is in French)
Ya I don't have that.

Tried volume butler, didn't work. Isn't there a cinfig file somewhere that could separate them?
