Galaxy S6 Edge :: Why Volume Buttons Changing Font Size In Messages
Aug 7, 2015
I have an s6 edge and I can't figure out how to stop the messages app from changing font sizes when I use the volume buttons. I checked previous responses to this question but there is no option in the message's settings that allow me to un-check a box for this.
I have a Galaxy S6 with Android 5.1.1. When I first purchased my phone a couple of months ago, I could change my font sizes in the messaging app using the volume buttons. That no longer works. I can however change the font sizes by pinching. What do I have to do to have the volume keys change the font sizes again? Or was that feature removed by one of the updates?
I need this rubbish disabled as i constantly change volume when on SMS screen. I can see how this would be useful for old people that cant read small text or are constantly fiddling with the text size, but its useless.
the media volume (for the Music app) suddenly started dropping to mute continuously. i've had the phone in my hand (not touching any volume controls) and watched the volume level drop repeatedly.. i raise the volume, it drops again. this has happened about 6 times since yesterday, i'm completely baffled by this.what's worse, the volume has also gone all the way up to max, so i'll be listening to music when all of a sudden it's blaring full blast in my ears and i have to rip the ear phones out.
Is there a way to decrease home button sizes? I feel like they are unecessairly big. Also for some reason compared to note 5 and nexus 6p I feel like everything is a tad bit bigger. I have set the display size to smallest but the resolution on my v10 seems to be a little bit magnified.
Strange thing I noticed. I like small text, so I changed from the standard 350% to 300%. Went to the store, and had 26 updates. This was yesterday.
While I do like the smaller, crisp font, the dialer numbers are very small, so I just re-set back to 350%. Went to the store and boom, there are, again, 26 updates.
What's with that? Do apps really install different versions depending on your font size? That seems pretty strange to me.
I have bought a brand new Nokia E6-00 and I was disapponted when I saw the messages menu. I set the view of messages as "Session View" not the "Inbox View". But the font size is extremely SMALL. I can't read anything easily. So, what I do is to tap on the recieved message and display as "inbox view". Beause inbox view font size can be adjusted. Is there a way to increase the font size of sessions?
I have 4s, today I changed the font from the default "tiny" to "Medium" for Messages/Phone Contacts. I found that to be too large and reset the font to "Small" but font won't change. In addition the default Tiny font is gone (no selection for it). How can I reset the font? I've rebooted several times but no success...
I just bought a Galaxy S5. Really liking the phone so far. Forums/message boards displaying different text sizes on the same page. Attaching a couple of screenshots of what I mean.
On the first one, as soon as I touched on the "in my humble opinion", it shrunk to that tiny size (without opening).
On the second one, the op's text is readable, but everything else is real small.
Hoping it's just a setting adjustment that needs to be made.
I did the lollipop upgrade a few days ago and now when I get a text message the font size is really tiny on the pop up display. Can this be adjusted it? I know how to adjust the font size when I go right into the messenger app. But I can't seem to find any setting to adjust the font size in the pop up. It wasn't that small when the O/S was Kit Kat.
BB Bold 9780.Outbound email font difffers from Display font setting (smaller).Inbound email font is also different from both the Display font and the outbound email font (much too small for practical use).Cannot determine if any settings exist that permits this to be corrected or adjusted.
How to resize it and keep it that way? I use the pinch feature to make it smaller but when I exit the app and go back to it it reverts back to the default size. I went into the settings and there is a font size selection, but it never changes the size.

EE have launched Wifi calling but only on firmware branded by EE. I got my Galaxy S5 from a third party supplier so its unlocked and unbranded. I downloaded the EE Firmware and tried to install it onto my S5 and it comes up with the following error: volume size is too big ext4..I currently have G900FXXU1B0C7 but need to install PDAG900FXXU1POD1 CSCG900FEVR1POD1.
I installed the new update 5.1.1 and after that. They both have stopped working. I have to wait for my phone to shut off and to exit apps, I have to use the app button which I don't like that much.
My volume down button sticks out slightly further and is more "clicky" than the volume up button. Volume up is seated closer to the phone and doesn't click quite as much. It's noticeable when any light hits the side of the phone as the volume down button picks up reflections easier since it's sticking out more.
I have a S6 edge. I have different notification sounds for both. Starting today they are both playing different sounds. When I go into settings it shows the name of the alert I have picked, but it plays a different sound. I can't figure it out. It's been fine for the past week.
My previous phone (HTC One) was able to control applications like Spotify with the volume buttons on the side of the phone even when the phone was locked. I can't for the life of me figure out a way to convince this device to do anything other than volume control with the volume rocker. I'd just like to use the volume control with short clicks, but if I do a long press it doesn't something else (this may have been a feature of Cyanogen that I was using previously?).
I'd like to use a Long hold on up and down to Next Track / Previous Track for Spotify. Right now if I do this, instead it just blows out my ear drums by maxing the volume quickly. Are there apps that allow me to customize what the volume rocker does in specific states?
Also, does this phone not intelligently recognize the difference between headphones being plugged in vs plugging it into an Auxillary jack? That was something else that worked well on my One as well.
The volume while playing music is always changing, like one step up or down every 5 minutes give or take.
- I disabled all the sound and equalizer options from the settings to test if that was the cause but it didn't work. - Rebooting the phone also didn't work. - I use Spotify, didn't test any other app yet but I don't have this problem on my Nexus 5 using the same Spotify version. - There is no way the volume keys were pressed accidentally because even when the phone just lies there, flat on the table, this happens. - I am on the latest OTA.
Any app compatible with the s6 that will allow me to long press the up and down vol buttons to skip to next track/prev track, especially when the screen is off?
