RInger volume control - Vibrant General

Does anyone know if the Vibrant is capable of controlling the ringer volume with the volume buttons. Basically I want to lower the ringer with volume key which when all the way down will activate vibrate mode.
The silent mode that is activated through the power button or drop down menu does not put the phone on vibrate. It requires you to go via settings and activating it.
On my mt3g the volume pad controls the ringer but on the Vibrant it controls the media volume. Is there a way to switch to ringer volume?
THanks

The only time the volume keys don't control the ringer is when you are listening to music or watching a video

thanks, that makes some sense except I am not listening to music or watching a video. i will check to see if the media is playing in the background.

[Q] Set volume keys to only change media volume - Not ringer volume

On the iPhone there was a setting to prevent the volume keys/volume rocker from changing the phone's ringer volume. I use the standby button to change my phone from vibrate to ring etc. I would like it if I could set the volume keys to only change media volume.
Is this a possibility? Thanks.
Oddly enough I came tonight to ask how to change which volume the rocker switch controls because a few days ago my wife's VZW Note 3 changed to where the Media volume is the one that adjusts who you use the rocker. It's supposed to adjust the ringer volume by default. Can't find a setting anywhere that would allow this to be changed.
Any ideas?

[Q] Divide the media volume bar into more sections

So whenever I listen to music and the sound is too low, i turn up the volume with one button press. Now it is too loud. When i turn it back down, it is too soft. Is there anyway to divide the media volume bar into more sections?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There an xposed module that makes the slider have 30 steps, it's like xvolumemod or something. You can download it straight in the app.

Volume up/down long press next/previous track?

I'm currently using playerpro which I love but can't find an answer to track selecting using volume up/down. It doesn't work within playerpro, neither does jays sound control or Physical button music control under Xposed.
I did use Gravitybox which worked but it messed up volume control settings. Basically notification volume changed to alarm volume. No idea why but needs fixing.
So how can I change tracks using volume up/down on my phone and headphones when the screen is off?

Feature Request for Linking Media volume to Ringer and Notifications

Does anyone know if there is an app or setting for our phones that will allow me to link the media volume to the ringer and notification volume? I'd like to use the rocker to mute my phone completely. I often find that i'll use the rocker to vibrate or silence my phone but then open an app that makes a loud noise at inopportune times. I don't feel like pulling down the notification drawer and manually adjusting the media volume every time i enter a quiet area is the best solution.
Ideally, i'd like the media volume to be linked but adjustable through the pull down menu to its own volume. When a volume rocker is pressed, I'd like the media volume to snap to the same volume that the new adjusted ringer/notification volume is at. This will promote the most functionality with the least loss of control.
Users will be able to modify their media, notification, and ringer volume on the fly with the rocker while in app. Separate volume control is preserved through the notification bar or by clicking the down arrow on the volume bar. Then, whenever vibrate or silence is required and vibrate/silence is activated with the volume rocker, users could rest assured that no errant link, snapchat story, or random screen press will play something that is unrestricted by the volume rocker and delegated by media volume instead.
I'd appreciate the help and i believe many people would benefit from this functionality.

Volume button controls ringer volume while media is playing

I'm sitting here looking at my Spotify app on my 6P while it's playing music into my earbuds, and hitting the volume up/down buttons affects the ringer volume. What gives??? Stock ROM.
