AudioManager manager = (AudioManager) mContext.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE); int max = manager.getStreamMaxVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_RING); manager.setStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_RING, new_volume, 0 /*flags*/); See the AudioManager API for more details, especially which stream to use and of course you might have to change the ringer mode, cf manager.setRingerMode(AudioManager.RINGER_MODE_NORMAL). Please be nice to the user: only do so if the user checks a pref to allow your app to modify his/her settings and remember to revert the volume to what it was before ;-) R/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
