When changing sound profile I have to go to Settings - Sound - and choose my profile. The "old" HTC Home had a profile tab. Isn't there an easier/faster way to change sound profile?
Do you mean like click the volume up\down button on the left of the phone and select silent, vibrate or change the volume?
Even easier

Go to Start->Settings->System->Long Press End Key->choose: Set Vibrate/Ringer
Nothing easier possible, but the "Shaking" method explained elsewhere here.

Do a prolonged bottom right key press and a menu will come up with one of the options being vibrate mode or ringer mode (it is a toggle).
You can also set it such that the prolonged key press toggles the two modes, rather than bring up the menu.
I really miss being able to switch between vibrate and ringer/sound-on the way I did on my Kaiser, which was to hold down the camera button (or any button of my choice) for one second.
It seems on the Diamond I either have to touch the taskbar, then the sound icon, then switch it, or, go to Settings tab, then Sounds, then switch it.
Is anyone using a one-touch approach for this on the Diamond, whether it be with a hardware key or on the touchscreen?
Thanks in advance.
You can assign the end call button to switch between ringer and vibrate. Go to Settings>System>Long Key Press and you will see the option.
i just hold vol up/down to switch

Perfect. Thanks!
I didn't find anything with the search function, so here it goes:
Whenever you're on the homescreen with your One, and use the volume keys, normally my ringtone/notification volume changes, and I can make the phone go to silent/vibrate mode. If I played a game or used an other sound-using app, close it, and go back to the homescreen and try to change the volume again, it changes the media volumes. It's almost as if the audio process is still running and the One thinks it needs to change the media volume instead of ringtone/notification volume.
Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? (Or is it a feature, and if so, how can change/fix it?)
Thanks

Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds (you will see the back/home buttons flash and a countdown) and it will do a full restart.
Cool... Someone is making an inquiry about operation of the volume button and you suggested a restart sequence?
Anyways! Try pressing once the volume button. A mini volume window should pop up there should be a button on the right corner. Pressing it will direct you to the complete volume settings window.

Thanks for your reply. Your solution is not exactly what I meant, first of all there is no button on the right corner when changing the media volume. Only when changing the notification/ringtone volume. Second of all I'm not sure I explained well enough what the problem is, so I'll try again:
Situation: A fresh rebooot. When you are on your home screen and change the volume, you'll change the volume of your notifications and ringtone. This is what I want and works fine, when you put the volume all the way down it will go to vibrate mode, or silent mode. Perfect.
Now when I played a few games or listened to some music, closed those apps and I am back on the homescreen. I change the volume with the volume keys but instead of changing the notification and ringtone volume I change the media volume. I can't set my One to vibrate or silent using the volume keys now. This is not what I want, since I want the behaviour as I described earlier.
If I now go to settings -> Sounds -> Volumes I can ofcourse change the volumes I want, but this is more actions than I want to, and apparently isn't necessary as well. Change the ringtone volume there, then going back to the homescreen and using volume keys again, it still changes the media volume, again, this is not what I want.
So the problem is that after playing games/music the volume keys won't revert back to changing the notification/ringtone sounds but in stead keeps changing the media keys.

Doesn't happen here. do you have an exact sequence of which games/music apps you have been using? It possible that one of them is not closing down properly, have you tried going to the app manager and seeing which programs are running then force closing possible culprits until you find which is giving the problem?

After trying to find the problem for a week I haven't come across an particular app or sequence before it happens. Force closing every possible running app that uses audio also doesn't revert back to notification sound changing. I'm out of ideas for now..
Yeah doesn't happen to me either and i'm on firmware 1.28 stock and urooted.
It's a feature not a bug

Try opening Recent Apps and swipe away the game.
Then try again.

I understand this question was posted months ago, but I too am having this exact issue with my One, and was curious if you ever found a solution. thanks
Same thing happens on my HTC one X. Only when i dismiss ALL apps from recent, it reverts back to normal...
thanks

Thanks, that solved it for me. Sometimes you gotta start at the basic steps when troubleshooting, don't just jump in head first.

I've seen the same issue with my Moto X now a year later. For me, the only fix has been the same that's referenced above--to go to the recent apps menu and swipe away the app that initiated the switch to controlling media volume as opposed to ringtone volume. Seems to work pretty well for me.
App is still active
Hey, I was having the exact same problem. It just started recently and I just figured it was because of a game (Real Racing 3). Even though I wasn't in the game, I guess it was still active in memory and keeping hold of the media output. I killed the app and my ringtone volume buttons work normally now.
My phone is Android 9 and no root.
In my task I want to simulate the pression of volume buttons ( up or down is the same). I can't figure how to do.
The activity: input > buttons > volume up/down gives me error
Taaaak....
That is a root specific one. In order to do what you want you need to select input >keyboard >the key you want. & ignore the key modifier screen.

From previous samsung phones, pressing the volume all the way down will turn into silent. Now i cant do it on my S21Ultra, i have to go the toggle buttons on top to keep it silent.
Anyway to use the volume keyagain?
Press volume button once which will bring volume, tap the three ... and you will be able to change volume there. That's besides the volume toggle in the quick toggles
**actually just playing around, if you go into settings>sounds and vibration>volume> and uncheck use volume keys for media, that will bring back using volume switch for silent,vibrate and etc

Welcome!
I use an app called sideActions. Some of the features are paid, but works pretty well. Allows you to bind actions to press of power button or volume buttons. I use power button long press to switch sound modes and short + long press for flashlight.
