What I can do to make my head set control default MUSIC player of my tab.
I have three music player beside this default,
Every time I install new one blue tooth headset get connected with last app.
How I can force my SGT to passing commands from bluethoot headset to
default music application
Thanx in advanced
I come from an iPhone with the hardware silent switch. If this was set, then the only sound would be vibrate. All other sounds (games, music, etc) would only be available through the headphones.
On my Galaxy Note, if I turn on silent mode, it seems to only affect the phone. For example, navigation, Skype notifications, etc, are all still heard. Is there a way to suppress all sounds in silent mode?
Rofl that is the media volume just hit your volume rocker all the wway down !

I realize that... but shouldn't silent mode still mute the media volume too? I assumed it muted the master volume, not just phone rings. I was in a job interview and had to turn the phone off because I was getting Skype messages
Is there an app/mod that can override the silent and make the phone truly silent without having to mess with the volume slider?

Ohh well if you go onto settings and click sound you can adjust volumes of media/alarm the way you want it its a slider thingy so if you want true silent just drag down all the sliders takes about 2 second to accomplish

shahkam,
I understand that but ALL others phones I've used with a silent switch, silence EVERYTHING. Going into volume and sliding the slider is extra effort than flipping a switch. Makes no sense that "silent" really does not silence the device. When you mute the volume on your Mac/PC, it does not selectively mute certain applications (system sounds, music volume, mic volume, etc). It mutes everything.
I'm sure I am not the only one who finds this strange. Is this an Android issue or specific to the Note?

Yes, there are profile apps that can be downloaded (mine is a paid app, easyprofiles) that can set all volumes e.g. ringtones & media volume, with a single click.

It sounds like skype is using the media audio channel for notification sounds, which should be going through the... notification channel! Sounds like a skype issue (the skype app is really bad)

It's not just Skype. As shahkam pointed out, even if you put the phone on silent, any apps using media volume are still audible. Defeats the purpose of silencing the phone, IMO. If I set the phone to silent, I expect NO audio (only vibrations).
Anyway, seems like I am beating a dead horse here and will have to use a 3rd party app for "one-click mute" instead of mucking around with volume sliders. Thanks for the suggestions.
P.S. yes, the Skype app is pretty bad but it was much worse on the iPhone.
The third party app "tasker" can provide a no click solution among other things. It can automate most anything, including completely silencing your phone when you have a meeting on your calendar. Send texts automatically to people when you are driving,etc.
If you are planning to stay on Android for a while, this powerful app is well worth its price.

I've probably been watching too much sci-fi but this sounds quite scary to me

which rom are you using? i put the phone into silent mode using the drop down toggle so it is on vibrate, i dont get any notification sounds for sms/email etc that i would if it wasnt on silent mode
i dont use skype so i cant say about that but it sounds like certain app are using their own sound system which is overriding the system default
Buddy the silence thingy on iPhone is the only good thing about an iphone it isn't so hard to silence it completely + if you use silent mode alot just go to message aand disable notification same for every other apps such as Skype i understand your frustration but i honestly think its not a big issue :/

Solution: AudioMuter
I was also annoyed by this "feature"... So I've written an app that can mute all audio outputs of your phone.
It's called AudioMuter and is available in the Playstore:

Hope this helps!
Silent thing in iphone is not the best. It sucks dude. The toggle or button of the iphone usually breaks.

You could get a 3.5mm jack and plug it into the headphone socket when you want silence.

Not necessarily, I still get SMS notification sounds on my handset when i have headphones in.
I use Slider Widget - Volumes in the Play Store; fantastic app, puts a widget with up to 6 toggles on it. I turned double touch toggle on in settings so I can just double tap the icon to toggle sound on and off. When i want silence I toggle off all but the alarm and in-call voice volume and with it on my home screen I can tell at a glance what sound is on/off.
For finer control, you click a toggle and it pops up a slider bar to adjust the volume.
I have to say, I agree with the person above...the fault lies more with Skype on your particular problem for apparently using the wrong volume setting for its notifications; it might not be entirely intuitive that silent mode leaves media volume on, but media volume SHOULD only apply to sounds you deliberately generate (ie, you start playing music or a game). Things like notifications/ringtones/etc go off at unexcpected times outside of your control, so those are the ones you want to silence... you can't hit play on your music app and then get angry at your phone for playing music lol.
I'm looking for a way that if I'm playing music and get a notification sound or something like that my music is still playing but with reduced volume.
Now it is pausing completely.
Example : when I am running with the Running app and listening to music at every notification of distance music stops for a few seconds and that's annoying.
A d secondly I would love to see at long press volume button to skip track function.
My wife's Moto X has an annoying quirk where any time an app that uses "media" volume is running (even in the background), it's impossible to change the ringtone volume without going into the audio settings. The volume buttons on the phone pull up only the media volume control. On my HTC One M7, there is an option to have an expandable pop-up volume control so that even when I am playing music or whatever, I can still hit the volume button, expand the controls, and adjust the ringtone volume. There's even a check box to combine ringtone and notification volumes.
Is there any app, setting, or mod to fix this issue with the Moto X, short of installing a custom ROM? The phone is not rooted, but I could do so if that was required for a fix. I'd rather not use an app like Volume+ that doesn't integrate with the volume control button and would require a widget.
Thanks

this isn't a problem with the X so much as it is default behavior with Android. The HTC had a different method because HTC skinned Android to do what they wanted it to.
you basically have three options:
1. go into options and adjust manually
2. install an app (I don't have recommendations)
3. hold down the power button - this won't adjust volume but you can switch between vibrate on/off.
If you want an app to do this you should checkout Noyze.

If the phone is rooted, you could use Xposed with the Gravity Box module.
Hey everyone, first time on a Pixel, coming from 4 LG phones and then Samsung's before that.
I'm struggling with the system volume. I have media. Notification. Call volume. Alarms. Casting if I'm casting anything.
But what controls the system sounds? The taps and the responses and confirmations and things. They are too loud, I'm slowly turning them off manually in each app but isn't there a way to control those sounds separate from the other volumes?
Also, looking for confirmation on this, but I think I read no way to change the volume rocker to control the notifications instead of media. I imagine I'll get used to it but rather just change it lol.
