HTC Volume control tweak (new?)

[Dr.Sid]

HTC volume control always irritated me because by default it controls ringer volume, not system volume.
And guess what ? There is simple registry entry for that !

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\DefaultPage

Change from 1 to 0. Softreset and you are good to go. I've just found it out, so stay if you can, you can help me testing possible conflicts with misc situations/applications.

PS. It looks on my screen like there is space in middle of 'defaultpage' .. it is not ! No idea why it looks like that. That values should be there, you don't create any new keys or something.

this do the same as turning off the single volume setting?

 

[Dr.Sid]

No .. you have two sliders. But if you press the volume keys, it controls system volume, not ringer volume (as it does without the tweak).

Ok .. I think it works in every situation. Haven't found single problem during weekend.

Not sure if I get this...but if I turn off the single volume settings, my vol buttons only change the system volume by default, unless I click on the ringer tab.

Maybe they changed it ? Mine always moved ringer first. I have 1.43.479.2 ROM.
