Revision history [back]

This ambience embarrassed me in class today by allowing an alarm to make noise. I foolishly assumed that the "Silence" ambience would actually be silent, but I guess it only kills the ringtone? The global app volume setting also appears to not be controllable by the ambience, and, indeed, not to be easily controllable except by pressing the volume button from inside an app. I would really like a single overall setting that I can use to make sure that my phone will not make any noises at all except for over the headset/bluetooth and within the confines of an actual phone call. Am I missing something?
