Hi all a simple (or maybe not..) question
I am trying to find a way to set up my ringtone level but there is no such thing. can adjust the sound level alright but my ringtone will still sound very loud.
Does anybody know how to do this? I cant find anything like that.
Being able to set up a profile for example would be very nice like in the simple phones.
Thank you in advance.

Two things that might help...
First, try the Settings > Sounds and Notifications>NOtifications>Incoming call and see if setting the tone to "Increasing ring" is good enough for you.
If not, then set it at ring only, and then in the today screen, move the hardware volume key (left upper corner) and adjust to your desired level.
That's the only thing that can help.
cheers.
krale thank you.
I dont know if I understood you correctly but it is working (I think) now.
If you click on the sound icon on the top right then you get 2 volume adjustment lines one for the device and one for the volume of speaker when you are in a call (or at least thats what I thought i did till now). well the right one actually adjusts also the ringtone volume.
Thanks for all the help. Now I my colleagues can go back to sleep with out me waking them up everytime I receive a call.

So, I'm experiencing what everybody else is with this ROM. That initial volume level starts out soft and gradually increases to the max that I have it set to. Some have stated they like this and that's fine. But, I HATE it :evil: . I can never hear my phone ring anymore if it's in my pocket. Has anybody found a possible registry key or setting somewhere to turn this off?
And if any AT&T folks are listening.. I'd like a setting in the volume area to turn this off or on.
Phone Profile
Have you check under phone profiles... Ascending Ring change to Standard Ring

I don't have a phone profile, or i should say i don't see any where for that option. In the phone settings area the Ring Type is set for Ring. There is an option for "Increasing Ring" but that's even worse than it is already. I don't think this is what I'm looking for.
Since the WM2003 upgrade on my SX56, 've noticed issues with the speakerphone volume. I can barely hear it in fact. Any thoughts on this one?
Fiddled around with the volume setting, moved it up and down, and the now the volume issue seems resolved. Can't say for sure if that's what resolved it, but it's fine now.
I'm experiencing the same problem with the AT&T rom.. I'm going to take a look around in the registry later on... before I go installing any apps
Well I have taken a look @ the processes running and can't see anything obvious that would be doing the volume thing..
So I have had a poke about in the registry and have found a section with sound profiles and it has an attenuation property, I have tried adjusting this, and deleting it but still no good
Also there is an entry in the registry called Hack and mentioned Vol in the string... but it didn't make any difference when I deleted that either :roll:
If anyone thats a bit more acomplished than myself with the PPC Phone could take a look and find a solution to this, i'm sure many users would appreciated it
Has anyone figured out how to make the volume level constant yet?
Any solutions to get the volume working well on A.30.09 ENG yet?
Nope. I just put my phone volume on next to the top setting and the system volume two levels below it. Works fine then. As long as the system volume is two levels below it will not graduate the sound.

Another thing try ur Reminder set an Alarm you'll notice that you cannot change the Alarm1 ringtone thus the sound stays low ..I tried many things in the registry and no luck as well I wish would some1 help us to resolve this Issue, but!! I made contacts with att's support ,I told them about this problem thus I'm not the only one who's experiencing this, lots of ppl sees this ennoying , I hope they would help here...
Hi all,
This is an issue which has been semi bugging me since getting my Touch HD a few months ago.
If I use Touchflo and go into settings for the ring volume, I put the slider right down to '2%'. When a call comes in, it's still very loud indeed.
I've tested so that if I put the volume up to say 80% and call in again, its VERY very loud!
I want it that I can leave my ringer on say 5% or 10% when I'm working so that I can hear the ring tone but not disturb other's who maybe close by.
Also, upon testing, if I change the ring tone type, then when it 'preview plays' the ringtone its nice and quiet, kind of at the level I'd like it to ring. However, when then selecting the ringtone and clicking done, I test with an incoming call and it's much louder.
Am I missing something here? I've never had this issue with any of my previous Xda's/HTC phones.
I had a look in search but nothing seems to show up like this from other posters - could my handset be faulty?
Or, do I need to buy some software which controls this better and offers more profiles than just the 4 standard ones?
Any ideas out there please?!
Cheers! Dennis, West London UK!
I think the volume setting goes by an incremental of 20%. Yeah, at the lowest 20%, it is still quite loud. The default Innovation ring is excessive loud. You can try another one which is not as disturbing at 20% setting
Hi there,
Thanks for the response!
Yes, I had the 'innovation' ringtone set and have now changed it to generic 3 which is 'better' !
Is there any software out there specifically for ringtone generation? maybe I could create ringtones and record them at a 'lower recording level' to acheive a 'low' sounding ringtone on the THD without this 'limitation' I pointed out/experience?
having done a search, I can't quite beleive I'm the only one who seems to have noticed this!
Might have to find those 'funny' ringtones - the Brad Pitt Snatch dialogue " why the **** would i wanna caravan with no ****ing wheels' being my favourite !
Cheers! Dennis! West London UK!
Your not the only one who has this problem. There is a other thread about the music player and the volume there, but the whole TF3D volume is just way too high . Annoys me aswell
I couldn't find an answer to this 'problem' so maybe it's something specific for my phone, but I can't listen to my radio in 'vibrate' mode of the telephone. When I turn op the volume my phone automaticaly leaves silent mode, and that's very annoying. I can't find away to change this in the 'normal' audiosettings of the phone, so is it possible to change this, or is it only possible to listen to your radio when not in silence mode?

Errr.. yeah, of course! Can't you just set your ringtone to vibrate as well, and then you can turn the ringer right down, and leave the system volume high? (there's the setting to have single volume for ringer and system, or 1 volume for each).

Why not just put the phone into Airplane mode so any incoming calls go to voicemail.
You can either use tweak to have system and ringer volumes independent, or to disable HTC volume control altogether. I use it like this because standard WM volume controls use volume keys for controlling system volume rather then ringer volume, or combined volume.
The first tweak is in sticky tweaks thread, the other is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431588
I don't understand why this is so obvious.
But if it's not possible than the tip for putting my ringtone to vibrate should work, although it's a pity I would have to change this everytime I don't want to listen to my radio anymore.
And the Airplane mode is not an option, because I want to be able to send/receive sms for example, and when somebody calls me it's OK too.
For example, when I am in the train and I don't want to disturb other people, but I still want to listen to my radio, I would like to do this in Vibrate mode so no noices (sms, incomming calls, system alarms etc.) would make any noices

Thank you, this would be of good use! Because indeed, I want to use those two independent, and I find it very weird it's not something 'standard' on the phone. I will try to tweak, merci

It is standard. Go to the settings tab and select "Sound & Display". There's an option under "volume" where you set whether to use single volume, or ring/system volume (controlled seperately). Then, under "Ring and Notifications", set Ring Type to Vibrate and ring.
Then, when you want to drop the ringer volume, just go to change the volume with the buttons and you can toggle between system and ringer. Just set the ringer to nothing (not silent), and set the system to whatever you want for the radio. That way, the phone will only vibrate when you get a call, but you can still listen to the radio.
Hope this helps
This seem to work John, although I can't test at the moment if other sounds like sms and so will be there, but I am getting somewhere!
Thanks again

Hey mate, sorry to see noone picked up your question...
So, increased ringing is working fine for me, and I'm almost certain it works for you too.
However, the guys at Microsoft had a rather... "interesting" way of creating this feature: why you don't probably hear an increased ringing sound is because increased, microsoft way, means that the "song" will first ring at your current volume, that a little bit louder, that louder again...
So keep in mind, the entire sound (so if it's 10 seconds long, you will hear the entire 10 seconds, the sound at one level). When the sound is played from the beginning, only then will you hear a louder sound and so on...
Hope everything got clearer!
Alex
Thank you amang for your important info. I use mp3 song and this is long song. But increasing from current volume level is strange .
Do you thing, that is possible to change, that increase ringing will start at level 1? Or maybe (but this is maybe impossible) increase after 2 second of ringing and not after whole mp3?
thx

Knobody knows if is here any way to do this?
Maybe with mortscript, which will control if is ringing ON and if yes, then will increase level of sound to higher. Eg. after 1 sec..
Is it not possible? I tried to search which registry key control phone ringing status (if now phone ring - incoming call) or NOT.
Really is it not possible to do this?
thx for any help
Morning XDA people
Have one slight issue that really bugs me with my HD2 the ring volume is so damn loud its hazardous lol now I know your gonna say turn it down but when listening to music I have to turn it back up again and then forget to turn it down again....
Any way I can separate the volumes better was literally thinking of taking the wav file for my ring and decreasing the DB its saved with, but slightly longer work around than wanted not ideal!...
Many Thanks in advance,
Crafty...
I used the following registry tweak to lower the call volume, and it's worked great for me on the old ROM and latest ROM. However, I've posted this a couple of times now and it's received a mixed reception. Some say it doesn't work at all, and some say that a second incoming call is way too quiet. You can give it a shot a guess, and if it doesn't work just change your registry back.
HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\inCall AND InCall2
Change the value of InitVol to "2" in both inCall and inCall2

Many Thanks for the Reply Snerkler, I don't think I explained my issue that clearly it is actually the ringing volume that really gets me rather than in call volume. I use my headphones and turn the volume up to max and then when removing the head phones if I forget to turn the phone down the ringer is crazy loud.
Hope this is clearer
There are 3 volumes in WM phone. Incall, ring, and system.
Incall volume is highly problematic in HD2, but at least it has nothing to do with the other two. It can only be changed during call.
The other two, ringer and system, are both linked by default. But that can be easily changed by settings/sound & display/single volume - off.
Like that you will be able to control both volumes independently. On my phone that meant that you control ringer only with HW keys. That can be changed to system only, check here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=610334
but for some people no such tweak is needed.
But again .. there is special incall volume which can be changed only during call. So no volume setting before the call, ringer or system, affects incall volume.
