Link Ringtone and Notification volumes? - Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh

Can we not do this like on every other phone I've ever had?

I use the app volume control. No issues at all.

When I use the volume rocker it seems to affect both ringtones and notifications. I think the volume settings are relative.

Here are volumes before adjustment, after backing out to home and turning up with volume rocker. . No sync.

Right, which is why I was saying perhaps they're relative. All I know for sure is, when I use the volume rocker, it affects both notification volume and ringer volume.

Which I'm saying I do NOT get that behavior. So, in order to change notification volume, I HAVE to go into settings>volumes and adjust it manually. Pretty damn lame.
I'd like to see something like this:

Are you sure the actual volume (i.e. the decibels coming out of your speaker) doesn't change, regardless of what the sliders in the volume app say? I realize the sliders don't necessarily reflect what you might expect, but change the volume, have someone call you, then text, then change the volume again and test again. When I do that, both go up and down as you'd expect.

Just tested. Only the ringer/phone call volume went up. Text stayed very low in volume until I manually went into Settings>Sounds and changed the Notification volume.

I just tested specifically and have to rescind what I said. That's really strange, I could have sworn I'd been changing my text message volume and ringer.

I'd like to bump this up too. Anyone not update to the new Advanced calling firmware yet confirm if this is happening with them too? I am on the new update and just noticed this

I now have the update but can confirm the same behaviour before the update.

Still doing this on 4.4.4.12 - very annoying.

I only took the day one update, call and notification volumes are NOT linked.

"speaker problem?" how can i increase the volume?

Hi all ,
there is any chance to increase the volume of the speaker ?
he is very weak.. (and his volume is on maximum)
tweak or smting will help.
thanks !
No tweaks really available for this. There are like one or two tricks (one of which requires hacking your phone up) that apparently work.
Look around, there are tons of threads in regards to this topic.
Yes the speaker is crap on the diamond. Sooner or later you will get used to it and live with it
do not forget that you have three volume settings.
first system volume, second ringtone volume and third incall volume.
the last you can only set during a call. when in a call, turn on your screen and then press the volume up button. now you can change the volume during a call.
for me this fixed al the volume problems.
offcourse if you want to use your speaker for handsfree or as an mp3 player: don't. the speaker is not intended for this use and you will just irritate people around you. use a headphone instead.

I also thought that the volume during a call is way too low despite having the volume at maximum. Since I installed Phone Weaver which lets you control the incall volume via profiles it blows my ears away. Last time the speaker was too loud during the call but I couldn't turn it down with the volume keys?! It only changed the master (system?) volume but not the incall. What did I wrong?
I have found that the loud-speaker volume is very low during movie playback, what setting deals with this?
Use Advanced Config and enable all Audio Booster options. This maybe helps...
Also Diamond Tweak, maybe disable 100 db Sound Limitation...
However, these are I think for headset, I haven't tried if they affect the external speaker.
One thing that works for sure is setting equalizers to max in In Core player, but I don't know if the core player works on Diamond...
Don't you love it how I actually haven't helped you at all?
I am gonna test all these and edit this post ))))))

Increase the volume of the movie player if its not already 100%?
Personally my speaker is very loud. During calls, at around 50% volume its still so loud I have to keep it a little from my ear.

i think you have to be in the phone menu. when i press the volume during a call, it changes the call volume. maybe phone weaver assigns a different function to you volume button.

Coreplayer shows volume at 100% already, but the volume is so low I can barely hear a thing...
Anyone? It's weird because when I put calls on loudspeaker it's fine, but when playing a movie it's inaudible...

Help: my diamond doesn't ring, but vibrate

Hi all,
My phone doesn't ring when there are incoming calls, it only flashes the light. When I switch to vibrate mode, it does vibrate. How can I fix such problem. Please advice.
Thx in advance for any input.
There are 2 volume settings: System volume, and Ringer volume. Make sure both of them are turned up. I assume you can hear other sounds?

i have same problem and its not the ringer volume setting. someone please help. im missing so many calls cuz of this. thanks
As already noted, sounds like you have System Vol up and have also gone into 'Settings/ Sound', and made sure phone volume slider is turned up.
I had the same problem for awhile, the two are linked, unless you manually turn the sound down (in Settings), then it will respond to the System level buttons only to the manually set sound level. I had inadvertantly turned my phone volume all the way down, thinking the System setting would adjust it to wherever I wanted it, not so and I missed some calls.
You probably have also checked to make sure the Phone ringer selection is not set to 'none'.
i had this same problem and i had turned everything up and still nothin..i did a hard restart and after that it worked
Exact same problem, didn't realise until reading this thread that there is an arrow at the top of the volume control which takes you to the ringer volume. Problem solved - cheers.

Have the same problem, but I don't see any <, button or another sound/volume menu, pls anyone?
Htc touch pro not ringing
I haven't had a ringer in six months. Only vibrate. I have tried everything. I don't understand 'the arrow at the top of the volume' control. Is that the slide button on the side of the phone that has system/ring options?
hi.. i also had same problem..what i do was... copy ringtone to music in phone memory..and one thing only the cut edited mp3 can play.. i think.. mine now ok..

[Q] Low Text Notifications!

Has anyone noticed text tones are VERY low? I tried the system standard ones, and also dowloaded a few from Zedge and also used tone picker...NO MATTER WHAT at full volume I can barley hear when I get a text unless I am right next to the device (it is extremley low). I have the system volume on Max also. Anyone else experiencing this? I need to be able to hear my phone when I get a text, what an incredible feature that would be!
Go into settings, then Sound and Dispay, then click on Ringer volume. There are different sliders there for ring volume and notification volume. If your notification volume there isn't at max, just slide it up to where you want it. Otherwise, I dunno why it's so quiet for you.

Yes, I know this is an old thread. But I have a similar problem but with a different setting. I'm running cognition 2.3b8 with Froyo.
My volumes are not as loud as how they were in Stock Eclair-but this isn't the problem. The may issue now is that notification volume tend to reset to low its low level as hard as I tried to increase it to max. This happens once I receive a message from my mobile service provider - like checking my credit balance and so.
Does anyone else have the same issue?

I have the same exact problem that USSD code resets the notification volume back to its low levels.
It seems an issue affecting many other galaxy users, searching for a solution got me no where.
It seems that this USSD sound volume issue is solved with some of the new modded ROMs. Now my phone doesn't produce a sound when I receive ussd feedback.
It is good in a way that a don't need sound notification for that & so system sound volume won't get needed up.
I tried perception, phoenix, serendipity, and now on firefly

[Q][Help] Notification/Ringer goes silent

Ive noticed since I got my X on Monday that randomly my notification/ringer won't make any sounds. Even if I have it set to the loudest possible setting. When I choose the volume thru the volume buttons the sound when raising or lowering doesnt always work either. I have all the settings correct to make sounds. Could this be a Lollipop thing, or is it my X? Has anyone else had this happen?
Yeah, it's been happening with my device aswell.. no idea what could be the reason, either the Lollipop update or some conflicts with moto apps perhaps? Wish I could fix it.
Bumping this in case someone finds a solution!
I found that if I use the volume buttons to change volumes it goes silent. So I just adjust the volume in the settings/sound to change volume.
I've noticed that the volume takes a step down in certain apps and situations, for instance: whenever I get a notification from whatsapp with the screen both on/off, the volume is rock solid.. but whenever a notification comes through facebook messenger with screen off, the volume is ABSOLUTELY low; meanwhile, with the screen on the volume is fine with both of them. SMS, Youtube and Email notifications are fine aswell (for now).
EDIT: well, it happens randomly even when ringing from a phone call even after adjusting from the settings and not the volume rockers. Gosh, Moto should fix this one asap.
If we had a LED I wouldn't care. I have to keep turning my screen on to see if I have a text msg

Volume change tone gone in Marshmallow?

Previously, whenever you adjusted the volume, the phone would make a tone to tell you how loud that volume level was, i.e. increasingly louder tones if you were increasing the volume.
I've just noticed that when I change the volume bar, the phone is completely silent (and no, I'm not in Silent or Vibrate mode). Is this a new "feature" of 6.0 or something is wrong with my phone?

well, its not new, as it was in all 3 m releases. and now marshmallow is like that as well.
Thanks! I've never used any of the M Previews so it's good to know this is an expected behavior and not a bug with my device.
