Link ringtone and notification volume? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I haven't been able to find any other posts on this, so if this question has already been answered, I apologize.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I can't find a way to link the ringtone and notification volumes on my S4. This feature has been present in every other android phone I've ever used, so I can't imagine Samsung would choose to omit it. Does anyone have any insight on this?

*bump*
Anyone?

Use master volume is disabled in the framework-res.apk

Why would they do that?

Same reason they disabled home and lock screen rotation

And wallpaper scrolling. They're the worst.

Have people done this yet? I am using the GOLDENEYE ROM and would love to have these volumes linked up. I decompiled framework-res.apk, but I have no idea which file to add this option to.

[REQUEST] Keyboard Notification removal?

Can someone make a flashable that removes the keyboard notification whenever you have the keyboard on screen? I've used the search function and can't seem to find anything and since I'm new I can't post in developer forums asking. Thanks! :good: :laugh:

I was running FreeGS3 but honestly prefer Blazer. Sorry man :/ FreeGS3 just kind of ran a bit slow on my phone and it's not updated to LG2 yet otherwise I probably would have stayed. Could you make me a flashable of that though or is it baked into the ROM?
Anybody know the line for this in the Settings Storage database?

Request: Transparent Weather Widget

I know there was one floating around for the E4GT, but I'm guessing it's not compatible with the S4.
Would anyone with experience modifying apps and/or theming be willing to teach me how to make the Accuweather Widget transparent?

I don't think you can but today I used the 1weather app and after you add the widget you can customize the Opacity making it very transparent at 0%.

OK this one is kind of easy doesn't need any XML edits, all I did was edit the images
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2
I'm watching this with great interest. I too want a transparent weather widget and I wonder why it's not an option? when you select a folder on the home screen the widget DOES go transparent. See the attached screenshot. So it seems that there should be somewhere within the XML to turn this on all the time?
You guys still want a transparent weather widget lol? Just cause I love u guys
Gimme a few seconds and i'll upload it
Here you go guys, Finally lol!
Doeasnt matter what ROM or SYstemUI your on, This is Universal, so it will work anywhere, store & save it. MOre to come!!!!!!

Vibrate/Ring Issue

hi guys, when I use a custom ringtone, the ring seems to be cascading. for example, it starts off quietly then randomly blasts the sound full volume. I haven't touched any settings and my ringtones are all standard .mp3 files cropped with ringdroid. when I use the pre-installed ringtones it doesn't do this but it vibrates first and then rings. any tips? thanks.
It's called ascending ringtone... normal stock galaxy behavior. Most custom roms disable it or have the option to disable it. I dont think there is a stock setting to turn it off though cant remember for sure and dint have time to check.

In order to rid yourself of this, the only solution I have found thus far is the app "Disable Increasing Ring."

[Q] How to remove brightness and media volume sliders?

Is there a way to remove this horrible and annoying brightness and media volume sliders in the notification pull? I believe without root, there is no chance, but is there any sort of hack for rooted devices? For me, this is a deal breaker, I'm gonna return this annoying piece of software if there is no workaround. Such a waste on such a beautiful device!
It's probably a boolean in the SystemUI.apk. Once I get my Sprint version, I'll check and see if it's possible to remove.
Once the devs have a recovery we should be ok. I know on the optimus G and G pro we were able to remove it from the systemic.apk not sure what files those are lol

The code is either;
1. Removed entirely on Verizon (unlikely).
2. Disabled for verizon (Very likely.)
That said, each APK (Android Package) has a boolean folder. Usually these true or false values determine if the script is active or not. Similar to how you can enable/disable onscreen buttons via build.prop. In fact, the toggles may even be in the build.prop, but I'd like to think it's embedded in the framework-res or SystemUI.
Once I get my Sprint device I'll look around in there.
Please upload only LGsystemui.apk

Now i'm uploading my LGsystemui.apk for F320K Model .
Do you think with SQL Lite Editor can we make the mod ?
edit : UPLOADED ....
Any progress here? Amazing it would be if the top ribbon could also be optionally resized, so it doesn't take that much vertical space. :good:
The volume slider is quite useful when the device is faced down. I could do without the brightness slider though.

[WIP 5/3/14] CSC Feature edits for GS5

CSC Features are cool because you can enable little features that are for whatever reason turned off by Samsung. Here are some that I have found across the internet.
A.) PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE MESSING WITH THIS!! Either make a backup in recovery, or make a backup of your feature.xml by copying the original/unedited to your SD Card.
B.) Download a root browser and grant it root permission.
C.) Go to system/csc/feature.xml
D.) Find the lines that you wanna change, and change it to what I have underlined/bolded. OR some are not in there and you can just add those lines right in (lines that are not in that can just be added will be highlighted in blue). Make sure the new lines are between <FeatureSet> </FeatureSet> . Now it's time for the features that can be enabled:
1. Enable call duration in call log: <CscFeature_Contact_DisableCallDuration>false</ (thanks to @eyecon82)
2. Enable camera shutter sound on/off menu: <CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
3. Add an exit menu to the stock web browser: <CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>true</CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>
4. Enable infinite scrolling in home screen and app drawer: <CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>false</CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>
5. Enable scheduled message: <CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>
<CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>
6. Enable prompt to select recording mode: <CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode></CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode>
7. Enables Rotation control icon in Gallery: <CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>true</CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>
8. Stock browser requests Desktop site by default: <CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>true</CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>
E.) When done make sure you save the changes, and reboot.
F.) ENJOY!
Gonna be working hard on this tonite peeps to ensure which ones are working and which are not... just gotta get thru stupid work first! -__-
Expect a nice update tonite peeps. PLEASE if you know anything about this stuff, feel free to add on!
Good stuff man! I did the shutter sound and exit on stock browser. I'm not sure if it pertains to what I did or if it would have any effect on it (I doubt), but I lost my ability to press and hold to get punctuation on my Samsung keyboard. Lol

Any idea if the radio can be disabled/enabled thru csc features? In Australia, there is not radio on the s5. Not sure whether it's a hardware or software issue, but in others.xml file there is a line for <CscFeature_FMRadio_FrequencySpaceAs>100</CscFeature_FMRadio_FrequencySpaceAs>

I believe with original Touchwiz home, you have to MOD the TouchwizHome.apk to have infinite scroll through pages, as seen in MOD faster touchwiz launcher thread (see Index for easy link). Works from just apk push and no csc mod.
Also, here are the screenshots I promised. Says "null" for feature but my be able to MOD but wonder what it does...

Hey Joe. I'm thinking I may have deleted something else while doing my entries for enabling something. You think me doing that may have borked something? Would you happen to know the entry for the keyboard symbols.
Sorry to bring back up. I just got to thinking about it again and its bugging me (I don't even use the keyboard anymore lol) but good chance for me to learn something if another member has this problem.
