Re: volume icon mute

 

Hi,

So the bug mentioned seem to be solved in last rc-proposed even if I think
this bug was more a progression than a regression. Indeed the silent mode
option is back with the same function than before (doesn't cut all sounds
but just sounds from call/sms/notification).

The fact is the "silent mode is not silent". If you play a sound by mistake
(youtube, music app, scope) the sound is playing loud. Someone already tell
me this is by design.

Does someone know if the design team plan to give a proper mute function to
UT ?


Is there a way to get the mute function back (by removing / installing
package) ?


Cheers
Alexandre,
