Is there any way to disable the volume control button as it works on the ringer volume? I use locale, but I bump those buttons often enough and turn the ringer off completely.

Volume control widget on the Market
. Access it via notification bar. Does not disable the buttons but any touch of the buttons get "recovered" within seconds after performing the simple setup. Possibly my favorite widget due to its perfect simplicity.
Still a shame the default volume control is so wishy washy...
ok anybody care to tell me which widget you guys are so happy with since there is no "volume control widget" in the market. Please.
Apparently no one wants to help today! I have the same question....
Being the app testing freak that I am, I installed RingGuard. I think it does more than just solve this issue. Disabling the volume rocker would render it useless, but with this asp, it's still operable. Nice.
The app is just called 'volulme control' and it's the one with the lady bug. I don't think it has a widget. It's just an app that runs and automatically turns your volume back to the specified setting everytime something tries to change it.ok anybody care to tell me which widget you guys are so happy with since there is no "volume control widget" in the market.

I'm going to check out RingGuard although this sounds like it also won't suit my needs. I want my app that automatically changes my volumes based on times to be allowed to change the volume.
Otherwise, I need one of these apps (Volume control or RingGuard) to add time-based profile changing. I'm just awful at remembering to change my phone back and forth between ring and vibrate.

Better for the apps to cooperate with each other. Something like, Volume Control would send an Intent saying it's going to change the volume to a certain setting. RingGuard would get the Intent (hopefully before the setting takes effect), and know to "auto-confirm" the change. If the other app authors are interested in this, I would be too.
My pleasure!I originally read this and dismissed it - until today, when I pulled my DROID out of its holster, not realizing I had Pumped up the volume (You knew I was going there).
Thanks to me remembering this thread, I am now also using RingGuard.
Massive props to AirForceMario for the mention.
