I've been searching the forum but can only find volume changers for the standard "Volume" function of the phone, where as i want one which controls alot of volumes or just specific phone-based volumes (that made sense?)

Basically voice commander / tomtom 7 etc really need the phone volume to be set on max (plus the application on max), which is fine.. until i send a text message & everyone in the house gets woken up by a PONGPONG!!!!! sound & i have to change my shorts.

So i need to keep swaping the volume up & down, i know this sounds like a silly thing to be bugging me but omg it does!

Is there anyway to set program specific volumes?
or any other way that'll solve my problems, just to shut up the phones OS based sounds so they play at a tolerant volume rather than so loud my ears bleed.

well, you can set the master volume to high, and disable all the sounds and notifications you dont want. OR craft up your own sound using a sound editor and tweak it to have less volume, then map it to whatever notification u desire to have a sound.

Hmm yeah i had thought of that but its alot of work, was kinda hoping someone could just say "Download this, problem solved" :P

Check out a program called TomTom Started located over at FreewarePPC.com (http://www.freewareppc.com/travel/tomtomstarter.shtml). It will automatically max out your volume when you launch TomTom, and turn if back down when it closes.

For future reference, I found this answer by searching "tomtom set volume to max" using XDA's Google search engine.
