[Q] Change Smart Alarm Sound & Volume

Hi,
does anyone have any idea(s) on how to change the Smart Alarm sound to a non-default one, and control it's volume separately from the general alarm volume, and if so, what are they?
I really like the idea of the Smart Alarm, but Samsung's implementation of it is terrible.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] What is system volume

So in various widgets that let you control volumes there is:
- Ringer
- Notification
- Media
- Alarm
- Voice Call
- System (What is this and when is it used?)
PS: Im on stock 2.2.1 FRG83D

i don't have an answer to your question but i have a very similar question. do you know how to unlink ringer and notification ringtone levels?

Yes, Settings > Sound > Volume > Use incoming call volume for notifications

Thank you very much haha. That was so easy I feel stupid. Sorry I couldn't answer your question.

I'm pretty sure Google Navigation used to use the System volume, but it doesn't seem to anymore. Now I think it's only used for keyboard sounds.

Also used for the shutter sound in camera

Thanks man, works for the camera shutter. But has no effect on the volume rocker making noise when adjusting volume.

Right. It shouldn't, should it? It doesn't make sense to use a volume for that sound other than the volume of the channel that the button is changing.

I was looking for a way to mute the volume rocker. I am using NoLock app so I don't have the lock screen sound on/off feature so I am using the rocker and hold down, to go to vibrate but if i want to go back, it makes a noise.

[Q] Alarm clock sound / volume frustration

Does anyone else find the alarm clock sound and volume controls virtually useless?
For example,
On the stock alarm, if you enable the "Smart alarm" option, you can choose a tone from Morning, Breeze, Mist, etc.
The problem is, regardless of what I choose there, it always plays whatever was chosen in the Sound > Alarm tone option - it seems to ignore the "Smart alarm" option altogether.
The other problem is that the volume control seems completely useless. Even at the lowest volume setting, the alarm tone is still rediculously loud.
I've tried the 3rd party app "Alarm Clock Plus" and it has the same problem with volume being way too high and it does not gradually increase the volume. Obviously it IS capable of doing increasing volume because it worked for me on the Galaxy I7500.
So it seems like a hardware/firmware bug in the Galaxy S (at least with 2.1)
Can anyone explain to me how to use the smart alarm feature or is this bug fixed in 2.2?

I can't help you with the smart alarm. But I can with regards to the volume of the songs for something like alarm clock plus. I had the same issue, setting the volume to it's lowest setting but finding it way to loud still.
I used Audacity to reduce the gain of the song I wanted for my alarm so that it naturally played softer, now it's perfect in another alarm program.

Any way to tie notification volume to ringer volume?

Hi a lot of devices tie the notification volume to the ringer volume. Where when I use the volume rocker to adjust volume the notification volume gets adjusted as well. I don't seem to have that option on the Note. Anyone know of an app or setting I'm missing?
Thanks.

If you use the app "Quick Settings" you do have a option, "use ringer volume for notifications"

The app Extended Controls has a widget that has option you can tick that says "Use ringer volume as notification volume". Extended Controls is a very useful set of widgets, well worth it IMHO.

independent volume bar without root

Hi
It's possible some application to have more volume bars to can change different sounds notifications and don't have only one volume bar
Thanks

Did you mean like extended volume control? I used noyze volume panel from play store for the moment. works great.
