Question

Answer 1

You can change it via the AudioManager like this:

AudioManager audioManager = (AudioManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
audioManager.adjustStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_NOTIFICATION, AudioManager.ADJUST_LOWER, 0 /*or: AudioManager.FLAG_SHOW_UI*/);

To get the current notification volume, use

audioManager.getStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_NOTIFICATION)

Possible volume values are 0..7.

From API level 23, you can also use AudioManager.ADJUST_MUTE.
