I am working and wish to lower my Galaxy Note's overall notification sound including incoming calls, sms, whatsapp, etc... I pressed the volume button on the side to like 2/7 of the bar. The incoming calls sound seems lowered but not the sms/msg sounds. What settings should I change in order to have the whole device's sounds controlling all at once?
menu > settings > sound > volume > notification
edit:
Sorry, I didn't completely read your post.
There's an app called audiomanager and it allows you to link your ringer volume with your notification volume.
thanks for your answer.
I mean there is no way to control the in-coming call + notification sound in 1 button? I pressed the volume up and down key on the phone only can control the in-coming ringtone I thought most phone can do that but not this Note. am I right?
So confirmed there is no way the side up and down volume button can control both ringtones and notifications sounds at once?

Are there shortcuts to activate/deactivate silent mode and vibrate mode or is the menu or volume button the only way? Sometimes I want to increase the volume and switch on vibrate, which doesn't seem possible unless you go into the menu. Also is there a way to set it to one ring only, or beep mode?
You can install any of the "switch mode" widget that you can find in Market, but the fastest way to change suond profile is push the volume down button for more than 2 seconds, phone will put in silent mode, then push once volume up to set it to vibrate. Push volume up for more than 2 seconds to restore full ring
Yep, seems to be the fastest way to change the volume and set silent, a bit annoying that it beeps along the way but no big deal.
But, if you do that to set it on vibrate, it doesn't seem to work for text messages... those stay silent because they have a separate setting to vibrate. WHY?!?!!!
Always seemed like an easy thing on symbian & windows mobile, you hold one button or a couple of clicks later everything is set to vibrate, especially useful if outdoors and can't hear messages.
I just hold down the END key and select "Silent Mode". Is that not an option on your phone?
Check out egg 'n stones' "Profiles" application in the market. You can define and set profiles from the application plus you can create shortcuts to any profile. For every profile you can set the volume of the different types of sounds (alarms, notifications, media, speech, etc.) It's my favourite profile manager.
Cheers.
thanks, i'll check it out
Or just install these widgets from Jerpelea's rom page. You can find the widgets link on the palm pre theme rom, 2nd post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538633
There is a really nice 1 button widget that sits on your home screen and you can press it and it cycles between silet, vibrate and ring.
Just allow the phone to accept 'unkown sources' in the application menu. Then access the widgets from the sd card (save them there) and then you can install them.
I have got a wifi, Bluetooth, GPS, brightness & volume widget that all have little blue icons that match downloaded from the marketplace..
there from Rounded Labs.. All free as well
my phone started acting weird lately. I can switch to silent or vibrating mode with the volume button when I first turn on the phone, but after I make one phonecall it stops that function and starts working as a up-down button that can navigate within the menu items and such.
I have checked all of the settings options that might have an affect on this, but couldn't find anything yet.
Any suggestions as for how I can fix this?
Vibrate all??
My volume buttons controlled all the notifications and sounds on my previous Android phones. That is NOT the case on the Samsung Vibrant. It will only control the volume for the incoming call ringer. I would have to go to settings for every notification volume to lower them and set them to vibrate. The only option I've found is t set the volume all the way down to silent on the side of the phone which will silence everything. The problem is, there is ZERO notification whatsoever. No led, no sound, no vibrate.
Isn't there a way to have the volume control all the sounds and vibration mode on the phone as a global setting?
what is the difference between ring and system?
and also i cant seem to get the phone to ring with sound and vibrate at the same time
Ringing with sound and vibrate is something you set in "Sound and Notifications".
Go to the Manilla Settings tab, hit "Menu", "All Settings".
The "System" volume is the volume for things like game sounds, music, video playback, et cetera, whereas the "Ringer" volume is for notifications.
In "Sound & Display" under Manilla Settings tab you can merge the Ringer and System volume so they become on-and-the-same (I personally prefer this).

Well notifications, sms, emailsound etc. is set via system as well. Ringer is really ONLY the ringer for an incoming call
and how do you lower the volume for alarm?
settings - sound and display - notification souds - new message (click new message, not the slider box) - move the slider on vibrate to OFF - done.
The alarm will sound at whatever volume level the device is currently set to.
Want it lower - lower the volume before going to bed.
thanks alot! i didn't know i can click on the new message =)
thats where you pick the sound you want it to make.
does it for all of them under notification sounds.
Is this standard or is there a way to turn down or off the dialing pad volume? I am not sure if there is any volume control for this.
I searched, google, searched in phone and cant find a way to turn down the volume when I push the numbers and about to make a call.
Thanks guys for helping!!
AudioGuru in the market place is awesome, can set volume for text messages, system sounds, alarm, ring tone all separately.
Thanks for the info
When i try to increase the ringtone ...its move together with notification volume how can i change only the volume of the ring tone without notification???
You should be able to go into Settings - Sound - Volume to adjust individual volume levels for ringtones, media, notifications, etc.
