Details
If you need to override the default volume down behavior you can
register an event listener for the volumedownbutton
event.
Applications typically should use document.addEventListener
to
attach an event listener once the [deviceready](events.deviceready.html)
event fires.
Supported Platforms
- Android
- BlackBerry 10
Quick Example
document.addEventListener("volumedownbutton", onVolumeDownKeyDown, false);

}
