I don't understand why no one else cares about the alert slider mod anymore. As of now, the slider is basically useless to me because I have to be reachable 24/7, so silent mode is unusable. Tying Dnd to the alert slider was an issue in the past because Dnd can be scheduled in software. But those of us that work completely different hours all the time would much rather have the simple hardware switch, and no software timers at all!
I can almost understand this not being possible without root, but with root, ANYTHING should be possible. As I noted here, functionality can be added to the switch, but no amount of Googling and probing around on my own could find a way to disable the built in functionality, but there HAS to be a way. I heard some custom ROMs have it, but not sure which ones. Maybe OnePlus devs tied it directly into the code for the ringer control in A10?
Anyone interested in developing this, even for money?
Anyone have any ideas?
Or know which custom roms have this

If you use Tasker, there are some Tasker scripts out there, and you can modify it to do what you want.

I haven't tried any a10 ROMs but I recall every pie rom I used having this feature. I would be shocked if it were different with 10. Try a couple and see what you like not terribly time consuming and can always revert to a backup of stock exactly how your phone is currently set up if you don't find what you want. Good luck

Yes, I mentioned that in the opening post, but as far as I know, you can't "unlink" the slider functionality from ringer control, making the Tasker integration almost useless. But thanks.

Thanks. Good to hear it's well supported. I don't understand why it's so easy for custom ROMs to have this feature, yet so hard to back-port the feature to stock OOS.
Seems overboard to change ROMs for one thing, doesn't it?

I recall in the early days of this device that it was a common mod, I just don't think anyone kept up with the constant oos updates. Don't quote me on that though I could be mistaken.

Thought I was crazy for a second. Thanks for making me re-read your post again. No mention of Tasker.

I am looking for the notofication pull down widgets.
A cherry pick or a link to a github page is also ok. I can work my way from there.
Can someone help ? I looked into CM9/AOKP/Paranoid Android, but there is so much to search.
I'm guessing apps like Power controls or widgetsoid are out of the question? Also, are you planning on making this into something to add to stock roms or a whole new rom? Just curious.

I want to add this into a AOSP ROM. Which I hope to release sooner or later. If I can integrate that, less RAM will be used in the process than having another app running in the background.
Makes sense. If you get it figured out, I'd love to know how to add it to something of my own.
Found it finally
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_Settings/commits/ics
it should be somewhere there. That will give you good place to start looking I found the cleanup code so the original must be there as well.
How on earth can I make a "calls only" profile on my phone? I have tried half a dozen apps and its laughable how such an open phone is unable to achieve what should be a basic feature.
As you would know google merged the notification and ringtone volume as one in ICS which is the most dumb **** move google could have made. Now most of the profile apps on the playstore can do nothing about this.
I tried profile scheduler and it can only handle the sms app notification volume. I tried elixir 2 and even though it says that it can unlink notification and ring volume but it does not work for me. Then I finally found an app that actually managed to do it! But guess what? It has a horrible bug of randomly deactivating my data connection and I have to restart my phone. I really dont know what its doing to cause that.
Now I could just manually set the notification tone to silent but actually that doesnt work either since many apps and services have their own notification tone settings which cannot be overrided by the system setting.
So does ANYONE have a workable solution for me? My phone is rooted but I aint installing a custom rom just for this. Samsung touchwiz phones still have separate volumes guess samsung wasnt as stupid as google.
I dont think I'll be buying a nexus phone next if I cant find a solution to this soon. Really sad such a petty issue has to ruin it.

Hmm you're out of luck if the apps don't cut it for you. If you're rooted then flash a ROM....you are missing out on truly useful features not present on stock. If you're not into flashing on principle, get over it if you don't flash due to uncertainty then read up on it, super simple.
Some top ROMS are Slim Bean, Rascarlo, plus many others.
Good luck

Have you tried this?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=Orion.Soft
Custom roms got you covered though, don't know of any without unlinked volumes.
Why not flash a custom rom, you have a nexus, I don't think it gets any easier to flash a rom on phone. People make these roms and make features that don't and won't exist on a stock rom.
I am using baked black bean 6. It has the option to unlink call and notification volumes. Also it supports profiles. I think it's worth trying a custom ROM when you need additional features.

Yes thats actually the one that worked but had the data connection bug. I have emailed the dev and he has no idea why that would happen.
On the nexus S I will install custom rom if I am unable to find a decent solution. However I dont know if I'll want to buy the nexus 4 knowing that I would need custom rom for basic functionality so I am gonna try to make this work out without custom rom.
I agree this is dumbest thing Google has done in Android recently. On gingerbread, i had always rocked stock rooted, or something close like pete's bugless beast. On a fundamental level they need to change this, but I think that it's probably motivated from their desire to unify the tablet and phone platforms.
I'm on CM10 now, and have been since ics linked the volumes. It irritates me to no end that every month or so, my phone slows to a crawl and i have to do a full wipe and re-flash. Never had to do this on stock gb. But that's a whole different issue.

yup, android is very flexible in regards to flashing
you truly are missing out on a lot of other features. and you necessarily have to give up a lot of space/speed for it, some roms are dedicated to keeping things as much stock as possible, just because of that, they mostly contain the "stock" rom with exactly those features you want and in other cases you can just go with a rooted/deodexed rom and flash just those mods that you need. in most cases, the latter has almost no effect on performance
Why don't you go flash a custom rom? Sorry but Google has millions of customers and it can't please everyone. There's a very fast way to fix all of this, and that is just simply flashing a custom rom. These roms are very stable and nothing is going to happen. Since you're already rooted why don't you give it a shot and then come back here and complain if it doesn't work?
I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I'm hoping that I can get some help as I was never able to find this solution via Google.
Anyhow, I'm running LiquidSmooth 2.9/Franco.K on a Nexus 4, but I can't seem to figure out for the life of me how to make the OS-integrated quiet hours work. I can't find any guide for setup and they do not seem to be working for me.
Can someone explain if this works on the Nexus or how?
Bump. I know I probably shouldn't do this, but I would really like to know if there's an answer.
I'll assume that Liquid has them under Settings>Sounds>Quiet Hours as well?
It should be as easy as: Enable, set your hours, check the boxes for the things you want disabled, done.
There's no trick to it, and I've never seen it NOT work on a ROM yet, although I've never run Liquid. The only thing it won't do is silence notifications where the app uses the wrong API and uses a ringtone vs a notification tone.

Hmmm. I wonder if that's the case. I'll have to borrow my brother's phone and experiment. Many thanks!
I recall this option on my rooted S3 (6.0 ROMs) in settings, so raising/lowering ringtone volume would be for both ringtone and notification. Any way to do this on S7 Edge (stock)? I have no intention of rooting, if that's the only way that's fine at least I'll know. Thanks!
Anyone

I want this too but unfortunately they haven't implemented that feature in the stock os. I have dug around the menus to make sure, definitely not in there. I think the only way would be to root but then you'll have to find a rom that has it unless there is a root application that can change that particular setting.
It is annoying but I don't think it's worth rooting over. I have a rule of five to justify rooting. So if there's five things that really annoy me about a phone rom which I can change through rooting then I do it but I haven't had any major issues with the stock rom yet.
Wish I could've been more help.

Try Smart Volume Control from play store. This app have an option to link or un link Volume.
I know it's a basic function, but I've had it on every Android I've had in the last 5 years. Without xposed my phone feels so basic and I have to turn on the screen to change track.
Is there any ROM for our phone with this function built in? I don't care about any other features so anything else is a bonus. I couldn't see it in any of the features for the ROMs available
Appreciate any help.
I believe resurrection remix has it. Or at least I had it on my OPO.
I miss that function aswell. And not to mention pie controls and ad block. Might aswell start flashing custom ROMs
Carbon rom have it, im currently using it
thanks for your replies guys. I'll check them out
You could also do this with a MacroDroid macro or a tasker scene, no need for a custom rom if you're happy otherwise
