guys - how do you quickly increase/decrease the ringer volume without having to first unlock the phone? i currently have pin security enabled and have not been able to figure this out. on my old htc one m7 phone, i can easily do this from the lockscreen without having to first unlock the phone.

Is there a way to use the volume rocker to set the phone on silence/vibrate when the phone is locked? It is a bit of a hassle to always unlock the phone to change the ringer volume.
Yes, the volume rocker works when the phone is locked.
What I meant is if the rocker works to silence the phone while it is locked. Currently it does not. Since this phone lacks a hardware silent switch such as the iphone and treo phones, what is the alternative?
My volume keeps getting set to silent. As a result, I get no notifications of anything going on with my phone.
A little background first:
This is my second HD2. I returned my first but decided I really liked this phone after all.
I do NOT have BsB tweaks installed. I think there is an option to kill ringer based on calendar with this app.
I installed PocketShield thinking it would lock the screen when placed in my pocket. The thought was that the volume rocker was getting hit before it locked if I forgot to manually lock the phone. Didn’t resolve my issue.
Last night I installed VolumeX. This allowed me to remap my volume rocker buttons. At least now I know it’s not the volume rocker getting bumped.
So this morning on my drive into work it happened again. I checked the phone before I left and it was in vibrate. When I got to work it was in silent. The only thing that happened on the drive was that it attached to my car Bluetooth. But I’ve had this happen on multiple occasions without the Bluetooth piece.
Any thoughts on why this might be happening or things to check would be appreciated.
You aren't hitting vibrate then setting the phone down immediately on it's face are you? I've found that setting it on it's face before it's locked launches things...
I do believe it's the bluetooth that'll be doing that. Connecting and disconnecting bluetooth headsets and car kits changes the sound profile - annoys me too, but I'm pretty sure it's standard for WinMosince my Omnia and Titan did the same thing IIRC.
is there a way to change the screen lock/unlock sound on verizon samsung fascinate? i like sound when i lock the screen but hate the sound it makes when i unlock it. my cousin has the droid x and i like the way it sounds. i was wondering if there is a way to change the sound or to disable just one of the sound (preferably the unlock sound)?
I'm at a point where I have to get a new backup device soon. I'm willing to give the Moto x pure one last final try... But I have to know. Can you remove that garbage ascending ringtone effect without borking the volume of notifications and ringtones?
That drove me nuts last time. On max volume the notifications were like a whisper... Ugh.
Anyway, is this still a problem today?
I just got my moto g5 plus (u.s. version) and have to say I don't think I have ever seen a more annoying bootloader animation("hello moto" really loud) than the stock one. (I wish the in-call volume were as loud). Is there a way to change it without root? I will root some day but I'm not ready yet.
you can disable the sound in settings > sound
