[Q] Volume sliders linking app?
I've been trying to sort out the volume controls on droid to get them to behave how I want and after trying various different 3rd party apps to do this I still haven't made it do what I want. It's getting a little frustrating now!
So at the risk of being told "This has been asked before" and being shown threads I've already read and links I've tried out, I'm resorting to asking.
Basically what I'm looking for is that ALL of the individual volume controls are linked together to the main volume rocker switch, and/or the ringtone volume setting. What I mean by that is that when I hold the switch down to make the phone quieter or silent, I want ALL the other volume controls (media/notifications/alarms etc) to use the exact same setting. And the same when the volume is increased.
And when I mention ringtone volume setting I mean that (if possible) when I add say a profile switching shortcut on the home screen and choose a silent/vibrate/normal profile that the same behaviour applies, ie all the volume controls get set the same.
If I was being choosy, in an ideal world it would be nice to be able to choose any particular control and have it excluded from this behaviour as I see fit, but that's a nice to have - beggars can't be choosers!
The important thing is basically when I turn the volume rocker down that I want my phone to make all the volume settings go down etc like they're one overall setting not a bunch of separate ones.
In terms of implementation I'm not sure if this will sound how I mean it to, but I don't really want to have to keep messing with an app to change settings, or have to have a shortcut that needs to be used etc. So with that in mind is there such a thing that just installs and has no interface of its own per se but actually fundamentally changes the way the standard volume controls and settings work and are presented to you?
That's ultimately what I'd love to have rather than a 'bolt on' that I need to remember is there and have to meddle with all the time. I hope that makes sense, and I'd certainly try out a solution that only ticks 'some' of the boxes than have no suggestions at all.
Sorry if this sounds similar to other threads on volume control. I've read several similar ones, and have tried many 3rd party volume/mute apps etc but have not yet found one that just links the separate volume sliders together in this way in such a simple fashion. I'm sure there must be one like this, but I've not found it yet so appreciate a pointer in the right direction!
Cheers
