easiest way to mute

[pareshk]

Hi - Can someone tell me the easiest 1 button way to enable or disable the phone ringing so it doesn't intrude? I know this is very basic but it is confusing with do not disturb, airplane mode, press power & volume together, and the various volume sliders in settings. Thanks1

i do not have your phone, for me the easiest one button method is to just hit the power button. this will at least mute the phone, it still may ring or vibrate, but no sound will come out.

never heard of pressing power+both volume buttons......what does that do? you have to be careful with that combo, because either power+vol up or power+vol down will boot you into either download mode or recovery mode.

also sliding the notification bar down will reveal a shortcut to turn on and off sound, airplane mode and do not disturb. thats another fast was as well.

Thank you! pressing power+both volume buttons is just something I read but haven't tried. I like airplane mode or do not disturb, I'll test to see if both work equally well. i thought there might be a widget but there isn't.

there are tones of sound off, silent mode widgets on the play store. just do a search and you will find tons of them
