Hey guys,
I would like to have typing sound effects but at a lower volume. The only way to do this is by lowering the volume from the side button, but this affects the whole phone and I have to change it every time I send a message.
Is there a way I can let the keyboard volume to be low by default ?
Thanks.
Doesnt anyone else want to know that as well ?
not sure if this is what you mean:
settings > menu > all settings > sounds and notifications
you can choose between soft and loud for screen tabs.. default is loud..
just tested but it's not what you mean sorry...
you can set the ring and system volume seperatly then at least your ringtone will stay the same.. but an inconvient thing is it always adjust the ringtone by default so it takes an extra tap to adjust the sytem volume..
Yeah its for screen taps and not the keyboard
Thanks for replying anyway !!
Anyone please ?
As far as I'm aware, there's no way to do this. You can either have the tapping sounds on or off but not on but quiet.
The closest I can think of would be to turn off single volume (Settings>Sound & Display>Single Volume) and then turn your system sound down but this will obviously affect more than just the keyboard tapping sound.

Aw thats unfortunate, one make like to adjust the keyboard tapping volume
Well anyway thanks for replying
mine is set to vibrate (apparenlty by default).. probably drains some battery power but maybe a good substitute for the keyboard sounds? anyway I like it..
or maybe you can find the soundfile for the keyboard in de windows folder (if it is a file) and replace it with a less volume recorded one (or edit it in a sound editor)

I found this a couple of days ago. Probably the SINGLE MOST USEFUL mod to the factory default Sense there is. With dual-volume control, it defaults to System first instead of Ring Volume.

But then again, lowering the System Volume also lowers music / movie / program volume so maybe its a short-term alternative.

Hi all
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to disable the volume slider button? As its in and out of my pocket its always changing the sound settings and its annoying, especially when it gets knocked down to silent and I miss an important call. I would just like to change the settings using the sound icon on screen and for it not be affected by the slider.
Thanks
try smartskey?
have you tried smartskey? One of the functions of this freeware is "Remap volume slider to page up/down" , this should be ok for your purpose, i think?

Hi
Yes, that works a treat. Thanks.
HTC volume control always irritated me because by default it controls ringer volume, not system volume.
And guess what ? There is simple registry entry for that !
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\DefaultPage
Change from 1 to 0. Softreset and you are good to go. I've just found it out, so stay if you can, you can help me testing possible conflicts with misc situations/applications.
PS. It looks on my screen like there is space in middle of 'defaultpage' .. it is not ! No idea why it looks like that. That values should be there, you don't create any new keys or something.
this do the same as turning off the single volume setting?
No .. you have two sliders. But if you press the volume keys, it controls system volume, not ringer volume (as it does without the tweak).
Thanks, what a helpful tweak, indeed!
great ! very helpful
Ok .. I think it works in every situation. Haven't found single problem during weekend.
Not sure if I get this...but if I turn off the single volume settings, my vol buttons only change the system volume by default, unless I click on the ringer tab.
Maybe they changed it ? Mine always moved ringer first. I have 1.43.479.2 ROM.
I'm constantly picking my HD2 up and accidentally touching the volume rocker, often turning it to silent (thus missing calls). Is there a way of disabling the rocker, leaving the volume at a preset level, yet still being able to gain access to the volume control screen if required? Sorry if this has been covered before; I did search but didn't see this particular problem addressed.
TIA
Hello folks. Is there no answer out there to this matter.
you can make the rocker adjust only the system volume by making the following registry edit:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay
Enter "Default Page" DWORD Data as 0
you can also adjust the volume percentage by this edit:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = ac75pw2r This will make the phone ring at 75%(u can put any value),wait 2 seconds and repeat.
hop this helps

av0pw3r means:
a : phone is activated when a call comes
v0:ring volume is set to 0%.As i mentioned earlier,u can change 0 to any value of your choice upto 100%
p:ring tone plays fully
w3:then phone waits for 3 seconds
r:it repeats the ring tone
hop its clear now

I am using VolDPad application (you can search in the forum), which turns the volume rocker into a D-Pad as the name suggests.
In addition I use AEButton Plus to map other hardware buttons to more useful things. For instance "triple-clicking the start hard-button" opens the SetVolume application (again search forum).
Altough not a single-install solution, this could solve your problem.
Hi,
Really enjoying the HTC HD2 - awesome phone and with the tweaks and tips from xda-developers it just gets better!
But one thing that's annoying me is the volume rocker is really easy to accidently press and I've lost count of the number times I've accidently set the ringer volume to low or to mute so have missed calls!!
Has anyone got any ideas how to either disable the ring volume from being adjusted from the rocker on the side of the phone so just the system volume is adjusted or default it to the "System" volume instead of "Ring"? I've looked throught the registry and can't find anything obvious.
I've tried doing a search for this but can't find anything, so apologies if this has already been answered on another thread....
Cheers.
i wish i know how to disable it too. kidda annoying missing call
I have the sound set to automatic, which mutes the phone while I'm on something in my calendar (meeting etc..) and I tend to hit those volume buttons and change it so it all of a sudden rings during a lesson at the university etc. Really annoying.
For changing System Volume to default:
HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay --> Set "Default Page" to 0
Now when you hit the rockers the system volume will be changed at first

Is there any way to control the sound volume for the keyboard keypress independently from the Media Volume? I can't believe Google didn't think about this, especially in Froyo.

Adjustable via the system volume control - bugs the hell out of me
Use a better keyboard like HTC IME or Better Keyboard or Smart Keyboard.
They all let you adjust how load the keyboard tick sound is
I've found a problem with this related to using navigation. If you set the keyboard volume at a sensible level then use navigation and increase the navigation volume it also increases the keyboard volume. When you exit navigaation it does NOT reset system volume so its annoyingly loud forcing you to readjust it manually. They should fix that in navigation but its been like that for at least 6 months. The fix I use is to get Sound Manager from the market and set a schedule to adjust the system sound how I want it at the start of every day. At least that way it starts out normal each day. Def a fix is needed for this.
