Why does every android device have 15-step volume control? Why doesn't it have a smooth slider like Windows or ios? Surely it can't be hardware limitation? Because I've had cheap phones and expensive tablets, and they're all the same.

Is there any way to disable the volume control button as it works on the ringer volume? I use locale, but I bump those buttons often enough and turn the ringer off completely.

My issue is that i can flash a new rom or load a nanodroid because my volume rocker does not work. I can get into CWM through the power options on the phone but i can navigate inside CWM.?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been searching for a way to control the volume of different apps independent of each other. As in those apps that don't have any in-app specific volume controls. The only thing I've found is that the native android OS doesn't support such a feature, but that information is old.
While this has bugged me a bit in the past, it's only now that I've started using Google Now that's it's become annoying. I'm occasionally playing a game that has no in-app sound control, and I don't like the music/effects of that game, so I turn the media volume down to mute. But when I then switch to Google Now, the voice is on the same "media" volume control, which in turn makes me miss the spoken answer to my inquiry.
I have hearing aids and a bluetooth device called an ICOM that connects my phone to my hearing aids. I wear it around my neck and the wire around my neck connects to the hearing aids It is great for my end of the conversation, I actually hear the phone inside my ears! The problem I am having is the ICOM output is too loud or the microphone is too sensitive. People talking to me say they hear a lot of background noise. If I have the TV on it overwhelms the conversation. The same with wind noise in the car! Is there any way to turn down the incoming bluetooth audio? I looked for an app that would do this but did not find anything! The ICOM is made by Phonak and they tell me there is no way to turn down the audio sensitivity or the audio from the little box to my telephone!

One for each would be nice lol.
If such a thing exists(?) I haven't been able to find it. All I can find is widgets to control the devices various volume levels. I can't think of any reason it wouldn't be possible...
I've had an issue where my alarm volume mysteriously get set so low that I don't hear it go off. Is there a way I can freeze the volume or change something that will disable the volume control for the alarm?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe volume buttons/rocker on my phone does not allow me to change to media only. If no media is playing it only changes the ringer volume.
Imagine this setting, in my car I have volume all the way up, I get out of car and put on headphones, volume is too loud. I ether play music to where my ears bust or I go into settings and change the volume there. When I try to turn it down immediately, it changes the ringer until I let that volume display disappear. Which means I'm stuck listening to it too loud until I let it disappear to where I can change the media volume.
My little rant is over, how do I force the volume buttons to only be media!
I cannot control my volumes with volume keys on my Sony Xperia Z tablet. It changes the notification volume instead of media volume which is quite fustrating when trying to watch movies or listening to songs. I have to go to setting and change media volume seperatly. This issue started just a few days ago.

Can we use ANY Android device to replace a WiiRemote (even partially?)
I believe the Motion Sensor requires IR but the actual connection is Bluetooth.
there was a forum post on the EVO forum specificaly talking about using the EVO for this purpose but I wanted to open it up to any and all devices (with Bluetooth)
EVO Post: [URL] .....
It would be useful on all non-MotionControl Wii Apps like classic games Emulated classic games & TV/Movie apps like Netflix -- none of which requires the Motion Sensor.
This guy is running Windows 8 and is able to see an 'ASUS like' device on his computer. It looks like he can control it as well... Here is a link to the YouTube video: [URL] ....
What app he's using? Is this possibly emulated?
He says that if the page gets enough traffic, he'll offer up the details. I went through and tried to search for it on XDA but nothing matches the way his app looked.
My HTC aria shows up when I run adb devices. It even shows the correct serial number. However, I can't find it as a target in eclipse. I am clicking on Run/Run Configurations. It brings up my project and a "target" tab. The emulator is the only thing listed, not my HTC aria.
Is there another step in setup that I have to do?
I am looking for a way to remote control my android device (Motorola Xoom & Motorola Droid). I assume this will have to occur via Bluetooth but I am open to any option (wifi?)I'd like the following functionality in the remote:
- Launch Music Player
- Launch Maps / Navigation
- Play / Pause / Next Track / Previous track
- Launch Voice Search
- Launch text search
The official motorola Xoom Bluetooth keyboard has physical buttons for many of these operations (maybe not navigation or voice search) but this device is far too large to use as a 'remote'
My ideal situation would be to find a small Bluetooth remote designed for something like this. I've been looking at getting a Wiimote and the app that allows you to map its keys to keystrokes. Are there keyboard shortcuts for these operations?
I also noticed many of the keyboard shortcuts require the 'Search' key (i.e. Search+'b' launches the browser). What if I got a generic bluetooth keyboard without a 'Search' key - what is the alternative keypress?
I need to support Android 1.5 (Cupcake) for my application but I don't have any 1.5 device. I currently have a Motorola Droid with 2.0.1 and the T-Mobile G1 (HTC Dream) with 1.6 (Donut).

OK, here is a step by step on how I rooted and flashed my Sprint HTC Hero. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE! Basically to make it easier I'm just going to post the links to the sites where I got the procedures or downloaded the files, it's that simple. Here is the step by step guide I used to root my hero's. Worked flawlessly on both, just follow each step EXACTLY. The copy and paste idea on step 7 is a great idea so you don't get any commands wrong.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat I need is a way to control Android device (s) from PC via Wi-Fi. I found a lot of apps (and Desktop programs) to do it, but I didn't found a way to View OR control the Android device WITHOUT ROOT. I work on the company which asked me to find a way to do this without root with their Android devices. After googling a lot I started to think that where is no way to do this, because either way I need to root them . Is it true or maybe there is somewhere an app which could do this? It doesn't care if it's paid or not.
I have downloaded and tester these apps:
MyMobiler - Doesn't work because when I restart Android device, app doesn't start WiFi, just keyboard mode only. I need that when the app starts it should run itself and start WiFi automatically.
VMLite VNC Server - Don't know why but it didn't worked for me. Just cannot start server from the browser.
Here is a site I found that gives step by step video converting. Tried it last night and all the movies work and are of great quality on my eris.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to control an Android device with a Bluetooth headset? I have a friend with a Windows phone who can listen to and reply to text messages as well as initiate calls through his bluetooth headset without touching the phone. It's very very cool, and I don't know that my Android has an answer to it. I would love to be able to do this on my Android and to use Evi through my bluetooth device. I have FlexT9 from Nuance, but it seems to require that I speak into the phone's microphone, as does Evi.
