Just to clarify, the sensitivity setting is basically how much you need to rotate the dial before you see any change in volume.

Not sure if it's possible to make it work that way, I'll have to look into it.

I'll add a workaround for this soon. Which alarm clock app are you using?
[Android Apps and Games] jonny68:
Decent app for sure i must get the full version.:cool:

I've certainly missed something, but I never saw the app on my Desire / CM7.

Volume up, volume down, reboot, ... I can access the settings, but that's all.

[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
It take it that you are changing Media volume. Not ringtone volume.

Try it again with media playing.

There seems to be an issue with CM and/or certain HTC devices. To capture volume changes we are using non-public API calls which may not have made it into certain builds (and pre-2.2). I'll be adding some kind of shortcut to open the dial for those who can't do it by changing volume.

Thanks!

[Android Apps and Games] asp2010:
I was just about to ask for something like that, because the buttons on my device (and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one) take 2-3 presses to register the volume change. Thanks!

Btw, I wrote last week the app wasn't working on my device. It is now (probably after a reboot?). Sometimes, though, the volume bar doesn't actually reflect the volume changes, so I can hear the sound go up or down, but the bar stays the same. Not a big issue, but I just wanted you to know it's there :D
[Android Apps and Games] ltGuillaume:
Seems like this doesn't allow you to change the volume in smaller steps than simply via the volume buttons, so what exactly is the point?
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
It says in the OP.

It gives you a dial to change volume, mute buttons and lets you go below 1 bar volume by redirecting to the earpiece automatically.
[Android Apps and Games] Atamagaokashii:
Doesn't enable the ear piece on my Droid2 running CM7 but this may be linked to the other CM7 problem...
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Hi, I've got a request... if it's possible.

Currently the dial popup appears whenever the volume is changed, that is fine, but whenever I connect/disconnect bluetooth, or Tasker adjusts my volume, the dial pops up. Might it be possible to have an option to only see the dial when the volume is adjusted manually (using the volume buttons)? Possibly by way of an option in settings?

Loving the Pro version. Thanks :)

Sent from me to you using stuff
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
Not sure what's causing that, again it sounds rom/device specific (assuming the overlay works OK)

It's not possible to differentiate between user volume changes (volume buttons) and automated system volume changes in this context.

In the next version which should be finished in a few days, there will be a feature to prevent the alarm clock issues but it probably won't help with Tasker.

Can Tasker send broadcast intents?
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Not sure to be honest. That was just an example. My issue is that if for example I pause a track using my bluetooth headset, whilst using the device, the popup appears when I don't want it to.

It's not a biggie, just asking :)

V1.2

• Fixed bug when clicking on links in help dialog

• Now shows overlay when you press volume up at max volume

• [Full Only] App temporarily disables itself when alarm clock apps are running (can manually select more apps from advanced/exempt apps)

• Added demonstration

• Added widget (for 2.3 app needs to reside on phone)

• Performance improvements

• Support for Android 2.1

• Remove seamless option (no longer needed - bugfix)

If the overlay didn't work on your device before, then now it should - but needs to be opened manually from the widget.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
V1.3

• [Full] Widget now displays current media volume

• [Free] App will not redirect to earpiece when an alarm app is running in the foreground [full allows you to select any app and doesn't show UI]

• Minor changes

I'm working on a major update/possible rework.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
App rewrite

Please see the OP for details.

Removed earpiece redirection method. Replaced with new method that allows finer volume control on all streams (except in-call, which may be added at a later date)

Should work on all devices (tablets included)
[Android Apps and Games] :
My Motorola Defy's FM Radio has a separated volume control, this program can't change it.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
I've had a similar report for the ZTE blade, and those apps appear to be very much device-specific and don't seem to respect regular volume changes either. It's definitely possible to control those too, but isn't trivial.

It's not something that's at the top of my list of changes, but I'll look into it (especially if more people suggest it).
[Android Apps and Games] mfenetre:
Hi,

I just bought the app unlocker. The app is quite fantastic, I was getting desperate to find an app allowing me to go below the minimum volume level (which can be too loud in quiet environments).

I have a Samsung Galaxy S II, and I also have the problem with the FM tuner: the FM radio volume is not controlled via the Fine Volume Control. I would love to be able to do that, especially since, the minimal FM radio volume is also quite loud on my device.

Anyway, great app!
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
Since my previous post I've tried to make the app work with the FM radio, but have not been successful. The FM radio apps seem detached from the regular system media service and seem to only allow 15 volume stages.
[Android Apps and Games] E4GT-R:
Will someone please tell me a way to get the old app? I LOVED the old version because of the main feature that it redirects to the ear piece. I was extremely disappointed and actually angry that it was taken out, instead of being added on upon.

I even bought the unlocker for this one thinking maybe it'll be included after I buy it but nope, still not here. I'd appreciate it if Richardop or someone could send me the APK for the old app (the free one) which had the earpiece redirection or some way to obtain it.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
The old method was really just a hack because it was the best method I'd worked out thus far. Once I'd figured out that it could be done how I originally envisaged, and it worked better, I didn't think anybody would really want the old inferior functionality.

There are many pitfalls with the old method and lots of work-arounds that make it difficult to integrate both methods into one app. You also have to grasp how the app works before you can actually start using it, which lead to many negative reviews.

What is it that you prefer with the earpiece version? Does it give better sound quality at low levels?
[Android Apps and Games] E4GT-R:
Most importantly, at low levels it didn't give the "sssssshhhhh" sound from the speaker itself and the sound was much more clear and has less treble when put to the ear.

I found it convenient for when I didn't want to use headphones or didn't have them with me, to listen to music. With the loudspeaker, the lowest sounds are too low and have that annoying sshh sound and the low levels are too loud at the same time.

The earpiece was just right and did not have the sshh sound and was more convenient for people like me who used it.
[Android Apps and Games] metaldood:
Can you add Tasker support for pro version? Would be great. I like fine control of my volume when I plug my earphones at work.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
Sorry but I'm working on other apps at the moment and just limiting development to bugfixes. Thank you for the suggestion though.
[Android Apps and Games] __Sorcerer__:
Has anyone tried this with the samsung galaxy s2 skyrocket?
[Android Apps and Games] metaldood:
Sucks that license check is required often. I don't have internet or data all the time. Bad move.
[Android Apps and Games] metaldood:
Buyer beware. If you flash multiple roms or change roms often then the unlocker will not validate license. Waiting for dev clarification on this.

[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
I've had several people across most of my apps report license problems over the last few weeks (I haven't changed anything related to Licensing). I suspect it is related to the move from Market to Play, and the known issue listed here: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs&ki_topic=1319135 under recently fixed

Seems that others are having the same issue http://code.google.com/p/marketlicensing/issues/detail?id=44&sort=-id

A reboot and/or app re-install has fixed it for all-but-one person. Also make sure you're logged in with the same account you purchased the app with, if you are changing ROM.
[Android Apps and Games] metaldood:
Thanks for quick response. Direct reboot and uninstall did not help. After restart I wiped app data using Titanium backup and then installed both apps. But in the end that helped.
[Android Apps and Games] eXtremeDevil:
I need help with this. I've been trying to fix it by myself for two weeks now, but I don't know what else to do. The overlay popups whenever he wants, especially when I wake up my screen (I don't mean to unlock the phone). I've marked the option "only show when volume changes", but nothing. I've also tryed disabling it in some apps... but nothing happens.

Please people, I need help with this. I have and SGS with a 4.0.4 custom ROM. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
I've had a couple of reports of people on ICS with the same problem (overlay appears when unlocking screen), but I don't know what's causing it. The only way to stop it is to disable the overlay completely, or disable the overlay for the particular volume stream that is causing problems (Advanced Preferences/Overlay popup).
[Android Apps and Games] eXtremeDevil:
I only have it enabled for volume of multimedia, not phone or notifications, and even that way, it appears ramdomly, especially with the screen waking up. Is there anything I can do, or is it only to wait for fix/update?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
I know it's not ideal, but you could try completely disabling the overlay.

I won't be able to fix it because I don't have any idea what's causing it :(
[Android Apps and Games] eXtremeDevil:
But if I disable the overlay completely I won't be able to control the levels, right?
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
The overlay won't automatically appear when you change volume but you can still control volume via the main app, shortcuts/profiles or by using the media overlay launcher icon.
[Android Apps and Games] eXtremeDevil:
That's true. I'll see how do I manage the app, let's wait for the moment for a solution. If I can do anything to help, please let me know. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] AZImmortal:
Would it be possible to have an option to have Fine Volume Control handle the volume changes when pressing the hardware buttons? The ROM I'm currently using has a ridiculously loud lowest step value (26% according to FVC). What I'd like instead is to have FVC handle and decide what the steps should be, like maybe an option to input how many steps you want and FVC will simply divide 100% by the number of steps you input, so if I wanted 20 steps, then step 1 = 5%, step 2 = 10%, etc. This way, I can use the hardware volume buttons to lower the volume below 26% without needing to use the dial or without needing FVC to be the open app.
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
It's not possible to override the hardware buttons like that.
[Android Apps and Games] AZImmortal:
FVC overrides the hardware buttons inside of the FVC app to allow 1% changes in volume. Is it not possible at all to somehow have an option to implement this on a system-wide level? Perhaps with root access?
[Android Apps and Games] richardop:
You can only override the volume buttons when your app/activity is currently on-top (which FVC does in the main app). From the background (service) you can't override the buttons.

Almost anything is possible with root, but it's not something I will attempt.
[Android Apps and Games] AZImmortal:
I see, thanks for the explanation. I guess I'll keep looking for another solution to my problem.
[Android Apps and Games] bob330:
would it be possible to control the in-call volume? especially when using headphones? because the in-call volume levels are less gradient (only 7 levels) than the others so the lowest volume is still pretty loud when using a headphone.

Thanks

This app is no-longer being developed so there are no plans to support in-call volume.

Hi all,

I am trying to figure out why my scanner is not operating. It was operating and suddenly stopped, wondering if it has to do with custom roms etc... I have tried to restore backups, factory reset phone, and tried recalibrating my prints. The scanner registers swipes when I have not touched it, and says swipe too short while trying to setup scanner password lockpad. so I want to know the software path in order to eliminate the possibly that its a software malfunction. I have read a few articles about the hardware being the issue but want to be sure its not something I may have mixed up.

Thanks in advance for any useful and/or helpful posts.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sass86:
Anyone?? Anything? Also after I reboot I swipe about 10-20 times before it registers one swipe, saying swipe too short.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sass86:
Or better yet will Motorola repair it if the bootloader is unlocked.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2whisper:
been here before. I am not sure if the root cause is the scanner has gone buggy on you (hardware not software related) but what I ended up doing to fix it was getting a new fingerprint scanner and swapping them out ($20+20 min to do the swap - might take you a bit longer)

I originally it was from the power button being misaligned (if I opened it up and adjusted, it would work for a period of time).

the x factor here was that it could have just been misaligned with the cover as i bought a new one but did not end up actually using it.) so that could be a possible fix as well.

the alternative? send it in to moto and wait for them to repair. Should be covered under warranty but who knows, haven't heard stories about people sending in their devices with a hardware problem with an unlocked bootloader to moto.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sass86:
Will my warranty cover it, I know it's been void by unlocking the bootloader, but the scanner doesn't seem to me a piece of hardware that is altered by rooting. I have talked to Motorola ( forgot to mention the bootloader :p )and they say it is covered by warranty and want me to fill out a ticket etc. And send in for repair

This is my first post in XDA forms and i am happy to be a part of the great developers and testers over here.

I recently modded my LG P500 to [UNOFFICIAL][ROM][stable:6.5.7] CyanogenMod 7.1-RC1 (Android 2.3.5) by mic_os.

The OS is superb and the performance rocks. It has excellent battery backup compared to my stock OS. (I have no performance complaints)

But the CAMERA application is not looking good it doesn't have the features of stock OS. So will any one show me the procedure to change back to stock camera application or can provide me any other camera application which will have good features and will work with this mod.

I will be very thankful for the help. will be waiting for replies :).

Thank you.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rores:
Hi

When you flashed mik_os rom did you make a nandroid backup? you will need this to revert to the stock rom.

if you did not make a backup, you can use the kdz updater to revert to stock.

Search KDZ updater on google to find the software updater, and look around xda for the stock 2.2 kdz file or try and find it on the net. in the kdz updater select 3G (not winmobile) and pick the kdz file to update with. turn off your phone and hold BACK, VOL UP and then power at the same time to boot into emergency. when in emergency connect the usb and click update on the KDZ updater.

When the program clearly says finished, disconnect your phone, and it should boot normally. if not, and it stays on the "android" loading screen pull battery and hold HOME, VOL DOWN, then power. it should wipe data and reset, thus rebooting into stock.

Click thanks if this helped you
