Despite thousands of requests, Samsung still refuses to fix volume functionality

[WhiskeyNixon]

Edit: The same experience, replete with Samsung simps bashing anyone that dare suggest silencing a phone without an additional apps, has been recounted numerous times in forums around the web. Samsung simps, stay away from this post.

Original: Despite hundreds on thousands of requests, Samsung still has not returned functionality to the volume buttons, where they erroneously removed the ability to silence the phone by pressing volume down, inadvertently forcing users to perform many additional steps to perform this simple task.

The solution is not a 'workaround'. The solution is returning functionality to the volume buttons, as it had previously existed in all similar devices.

Please advise the steps your company is taking to address this issue, and advise a timeline when we can expect functionality to be returned.

Samsung sold millions of phones, and only few hundred thousand complaining. Not enough to do any changes

[WhiskeyNixon]

By that logic, nothing would ever change.

Please share your source for "hundreds on thousands of requests" as I believe there might be a bit of exaggeration on your part.

[WhiskeyNixon]

I'm a single person responsible for a hundred of those complaints. While I did extrapolate, I did not exaggerate.

So your one complaint hundred or hundreds of times equals how many others

Lol

As a Galaxy S24 Ultra user I would like to know more. I can in fact silence my phone by holding down the volume down button (unless I'm in a voice call on like discord) .

From what I understand, this was a change that first appeared in Samsung One UI 8.

I been running 8.0 since it was in beta I have no issue. I hold down the volume down and it keeps going until it's muted.
