Increasing Ring - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

I just came from a Note 4 and didn't have this problem. I like to create ringtones that loop seamlessly but with my S7 when my ringtone starts it has low volume and increases to full volume after a second or two. For me this breaks the seamless loop of my ringtone and sounds awful.
There is an app on the google store "Disable Increasing Ring" but it has a persistent notification that remains on the lockscreen and just bugs the crap out of me having to stare at it every time.
Is there a setting or option I am missing that can disable this "feature"? I can't believe more people aren't complaining about this? It makes me miss calls sometimes because I can't get to my phone fast enough since I missed the first few seconds of the ringtone.
Thanks!

You can probably turn off the persistent notification under manage applications. That's what I did on my S5 when I used this app.

Now that S7 has root, does anyone know how to disable the increasing ring for ringtones?

Xtouchwiz (xposed) has an option to remove it.

Thanks! I'm a noob with xposed but I just installed out so I'll give it a try.

Sound too loud on lowest setting

Hey everyone,
Just getting my note 10.1 setup and so far im loving it. Its my first tablet and the fact it has a stylus finally made having a tablet more practical for me. One thing I am not a fan of is that when I have the sound turned down to the lowest setting it is too loud. Is there any built in eq that I can use to scale the sound?
So far im using a downloaded app "Music Volume EQ" which is working but needs to be running and then it takes up space in my notifications bar which I really dont like.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

I don't know about this specific app, but most apps do have an option to disable notification entries in settings. I was fed up with the Skype app persistently displaying my online status in the notification tray until I noticed an option to disable it in the app's preferences.
'might wanna try looking for it there.

Separating volumes for notifications and phone calls?

Hello,
Is it possible to have the phone ring very loud, while having the notifications for apps very low or only on vibrate? I was able to do that with my Alcatel OneTouch Idol 5.5, but can't find a way to set this with the Moto X Style... Looks like these 2 settings are tied together...
Thanks.
Use. Audio Manager app from play store.

There are 2 apps under that name in the Play Store. Both seem hit or miss, because it looks like the settings change as soon as the volume rocker is hit...

One way is to install Xposed (requires root) and then use the Xposed Gravity Box module. That module allows you to have separate volume sliders for ringtone & notification among many other things like QS tile rearrangement, quick login, etc.

So, no real way to resolve this unless I want to root?
That's the only thing that bugs me with the Pure/Style so far...

This is the app that I use:

And it works perfectly. I have used it on every android phone of mine. Take a look at attached screenshot:

This works, until you hit the volume buttons cause the YouTube video you play is too loud. Then, the ringer and the notitifications volumes get tied together again. So the app is pretty much useless...
Anyone has a fix for this? I can't believe I'm the only one complaining about that...

I just got this phone been using the LG V10 on Verizon. Running latest build rooted. I never used a launcher before but it looks like I might start.
This phone is nice because of the development but the notifications suck. I already miss the extra screen that is always on with the V10 and no sound issues with it.

Getting rid of heads up notifications while phone is unlocked?

I'm not sure if this is an LG or Nougat thing, but it's seriously annoying. Whenever I use the phone and I get a notification of any kind, it pops down from the status bar (why can't it just go straight to the 2nd screen???) and persists for a few seconds unless I action it or dismiss.
Is there a setting within notifications or apps themselves to make them go straight to the 2nd screen?

Mine pop into the 2nd screen. What app is causing it? I know Textra was doing that until I disabled the pop up notification

Snapchat and Whatsapp are examples. What sort of notification settings do you have? Are you silencing any apps?

Not silencing anything, I just adjusted the Textra to not show the floating reply.
I don't use Whatsapp so can't speak to any settings in there and my Snapchat I have set to Vibrate only(turned wake screen off). Don't get a lot of Snapchat chats so never noticed if its a pop up notification or not

Weird - I found out that "Silencing" notifications is the only way to get them to not pop up... but then I don't get a vibrate.
System UI is a "hidden" feature of Nougat that LG decided to axe, which is extremely frustrating because it has the EXACT functionality someone needs to have full control over their notifications.

Yeah I want that system UI because in it you can do percent in battery notification so it's not next to the battery
It actually started with Marshmallow and was pretty popular due to the simple tweaks it can do that everyone wants. Unfortunately it seems to be more of a carrier issue with disabling it. Regardless, disabling peeking should be a basic option in settings from day 1. Not a super hidden feature in Andriod M and a above with no guarantee of staying. Textra is nice enough to have its own setting. Why other apps do not is baffling.
Someone finding a way to get to the System UI tuner settings would be amazing. As it is now there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off ONLY peeking/heads up notifications that I have been able to find. Maybe HeadsOff will be compatible with N before long.
I can't reply to any notifications in my notifications panel. How do I turn it back on?

S7 Edge with 7.0 - lacking Power Notification Controls and screen wake notifications

Why the hells samsung removed System UI tuner? Or it's me that cannot find this controls outside?
Now we cannot control the notifications properly... with the levels. Whatsapp for ex gives annoying previews over each and every message and now only exist 2 options on notifications or put it silently (no preview + no sound) or preview+ sound... what a stupid move.
Also each notification wakes the screen... any way to turn this off?
If this is true, I'll happily skip the nougat update

Yeah but you see. Like thread starter mentioned. If enable show silently ur apps will completely silence. No notification sound and vibrate. He just want to disable the heads up notification only. Not the sound. Marshmallow seeting is better because they separate it.
ive been having issues with this as well ever since i bought my S7 Edge, coming from Nexus 6 i really miss the advance notification control inside AOSP. anyway to enable it in s7 nougat roms?
thanks

When you say "heads up notification", are you referring to peeking where there's a short pop up message over the status bar? For example, every time I get a message on Facebook Messenger, there's peeking. If so, that frustrated me as well and I loved it when I could turn if off with Nougat's Power Notifications controls.
I finally found a way to disable peeking; I had to turn off sound by going to Facebook Messenger's App Info - App Notification - disable [Allow Sound]. I already use Lightflow to customize sounds/vibrations from my Nougat days. Once I disabled [Allow Sound], peeking stopped but I could still hear sound/vibration through my customization in Lightflow.
Problem solved for me.
Feel disgusting to heads up notification too.
try "Gaming Do Not Disturb"
I open it all the time to ban heads up notification
Here is how to set notification on oreo. go to setting > app And notification > then select your app for which you want to turn off or reduce importance of notification. If you select preference urgent / high / medium and low. then low means no sound no visual notification and urgent mean sound and popup.
