I just could not believe that a new Nokia 820 would be missing this functionality. All I need is the ability to set the alarm volume separately to the ringer/text alert volume. I do want my alarm to wake me up but do not want to have text messages wake me! Please provide this.

The biggest problem without separate volume controls is that many phones are configured in the firmware to make the ringer really loud and the out-of-call audio low. For example, on my Nokia Lumia 920 I have to turn it all the way up to 30/30 to hear text messages over Bluetooth into my car, but then that makes the ringer way too loud. The ringer is even loud at 15/30. If I turn the volume up on the car to compensate instead, then the in-call audio is way too loud. There is just no proper balance since manufacturers are hard-coding volume settings and there's no way for the user to adjust them to their needs or peripherals. I love Windows Phone, but this needed fixed badly several updates ago. I mean, it should have been fixed in 7.5 at the latest.

Microsoft said they listen to users, but I don't think they did that.

Help - please let me turn the alarm's volume down! Can't believe I have to buy a separate alarm clock as my brand new, up to date phone, doesn't have this basic functionality...

How basic is this? 4 levels of ringer & silent. Volume separate for music. I have my ringer loud 25 -music with headphones 5. Can you see the possible problems with this?

The alarm wakes up the whole house and the volume cannot be changed - I've been able to set my alarm volume since my very first phone in the nineties but not in win8. What an unnecessary backwards step. Got to keep my old blackberry to use as an alarm!! Madness.

this is a basic function that should be there. If I am listening to music a low volume. It doesn't mean that I don't want to hear my alarm or phone ringing. One volume doesn't make sense

I regret to say I will recommend Android until this is fixed. Sad, WP8 could have been superior...

The mode in Ring+Vibrate,
While incoming call, the phone vibrating at once.
Please make it continuous. That would be better for outdoor.And provide separate volume control for music/video players.
