Volume control with android hardware buttons

[Horst]

Hello,

normal in an android app the hardware volume up/down buttons changes
the media volume. In my phonegap app i change the ringtone volume.
How can i make it, that in my app the button also changes the media
volume?

best regards
Horst

I do believe you have found a bug. Can you open a ticket for us in

Hey Horst,

I just checked in a fix for this issue for the 0.9.4 release. In the
meantime if you want to fix this issue in your app you can add the
following line:

setVolumeControlStream(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);

into the onCreate() method of your main Android class that extends DroidGap.

Simon,

This bug still seems to exist, atleast on 5.0 Lollipop. I cant find anything online so i was wondering if you were aware of anything?

In fact, commenting out the line:

setVolumeControlStream(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);

from the latest CordovaActivity.java init method, fixes this for me.

STREAM_MUSIC is not the standard ringer volume, and I dont think it should be here...
