Ringer volume question

[rfresh]

When I run this code, I see the max ringer vol is 5 but when I go into my settings and look at the ringer volume, the slider bar isn't all the way to the right indicating a max vol setting, it's only about 33%...there is plenty of room to slide it over to the right some more. Why is the getmaxvolume only returning 5?

   p.SetRingerMode(p.RINGER_NORMAL)
   mPhoneVolume = p.GetVolume(p.VOLUME_RING)
   Log("prev mPhoneVolume:" & mPhoneVolume)
   mPhoneMaxVolume = p.GetMaxVolume (p.VOLUME_RING)
   Log("prev mPhoneMaxVolume:" & mPhoneVolume)
   p.SetVolume (p.RINGER_NORMAL, 5, False)
   Log("Setting max ringer volume")   
   mPhoneMaxVolume = p.GetMaxVolume (p.VOLUME_RING)
   Log("after mPhoneMaxVolume:" & mPhoneVolume)

This is strange.
Try this code:

Dim p As Phone
Log(p.GetMaxVolume(p.VOLUME_RING))
p.SetVolume(p.VOLUME_RING, p.GetMaxVolume(p.VOLUME_RING), True)

On the device I tested it the volume bar is set to the maximum.

Yes that worked fine. Thanks.

On my Droid3 phone, the max volume value is 15, is that value the same on all Android phones or should I set my seekbar max value dynamically in the create first time sub?

You should use GetMaxVolume. The value can change.
