Ring and notification not separate #11

Open krallus opened 5 years ago

krallus commented 5 years ago

With "extended volume settings" enabled, Ring and Notification volumes are separate controls. However, changing one changes the other and I really need them to be independent.

Android 9 on Google Pixel 3a

If you can resolve this, my love for this app would be immense! :-)

@krallus Thanks for the issue. this is limitation of android sdk and known. android provides these volume modes, but they are linked to each other.

I have a workaround idea but I haven't tried it.

The idea is to start a foreground service and listen for ringer state changes and manually change ringer value just for the time of rings. it will require few additional permissions.

Cool idea. It would be even cooler with option to gradually ramp up ring volume up to max volume until the call is acknowledged.

Any plans on implementing this?
