The "marcini.thinkblu-tilt2 vol increase.cab" posted elsewhere on this forum makes the volume level on my TP2 tolerable (and thank you for that!) but I still have one issue...
Whenever I turn my phone off and then back on, the volume level resets to somewhere in the middle. I know it is petty, but I hate fumbling around with the volume to raise it back up. I want it to stay at the maximium level *always*.
How can I force the my phone to always boot up with the headset volume set to the highest setting? Thanks!
probably a registry setting somewhere here. Back up your registry (or phone) before making changes.
HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\InCall
Thanks, but I found and tried that one as well as "InCall2" and "InCall3" without any luck.
I also found and tried "SavedInCallVolume" and "SavedVolume" - I think I've tried every setting in the registry that seems like it might have anything to do with volume, but still haven't gotten anywhere. Everytime I cycle power it goes back to the middle setting :-(

flash another rom that woud solve it. now where is my $10?
I certainly haven't tried all available ROM's, but I'm sure that none of the ones that I have tried handle the volume any differently than any other...
Please make sure you understand what I am asking, point me to a specific ROM that works the way I want, and I will happily send you $10!
I noticed this from the beginning, but didn't pay much attention to it because I thought it was my fault. But it happens again and again and I'm sure I don't do anything to cause this.
The problem: often when I haven't used the phone for a while the ringer volume is mysteriously turned down to a miminum level.
I now lock the ringer volume with an app, so this kinda solved the problem for me. Nevertheless I'm wondering if there are others who have this weird volume behavior.
BTW this is not the "classical" volume bug that was solved a few days ago with the OTA patch.
Can't say I ever have any problem like that. Might be an app on your phone that is turning the volume down? I agree it's definitely not the button bug since you can't change the volume with those buttons without unlocking the screen.

This might be an app. For example the 1Password reader app changes your volume based on some setting in the app.
yep. since day 1. no idea what causes and it's definitely no app causing it as i returned to factory settings to test it out and i still had the same issue
i honestly think it's the placement of the volume buttons but really difficult to be certain, as sometimes i will find the phone on vibrate and i am 100% i haven't touched the volume button.
At least now i am know i am not going crazy as this has been my one and only gripe about the phone
what app are you using to keep the volume locked?
Does you phone have the update? If not, then I'd assume it is the bug.
Why would I assume that. Cause the bug picks up noise on the volume keys, which control volume of everything, ringers, media, notifications, ect. The buttons control different things depending on what screen you might happen to be on. So it's possible that the bug could change your ringer volume as well.

Ahhh thx, this was driving me bananas .. at least I now know that it can be mysteriously reproduced on other devices. I've tried to monitor my own actions but I'm also pretty sure I don't accidentally touch the volume keys. I didn't do extensive research because I just thought it wasn't worthwhile. But because I missed some calls lately because of this it is now pretty high on my annoyance list.
The app I'm using is Volume + (free version will do). Until now it seems to work well. It runs a background service and intercepts volume key presses events and pushes the volume back to a saved level. (Could have used that for the other volume bug)

Always difficult to say, but I wiped my device a few days ago to root it and didn't install many apps yet (only twitter and thumb keyboard)

I've installed the latest update (build ITL41F). Maybe the fix doesn't cover all scenarios yet?
Sounds like interference to me. The fix added a 2ms de-bounce time which is ALOT. What frequency is your network on? You should try fixing it to 3g just to check if that fixes it. If it does its most likely interference.
I wonder if you have a bad ground connection in it somewhere (hardware fault).
If you can tell me the frequency your network uses (or your operator and i'll look it up) I can calculate the GSM burst time and see how it fits in 2ms. Ironically the burst arrives when you're about to receive a call so its turning the ringer down just before it rings lol

My operator uses 900 MHz (for 2G) /1800 MHz (3g) . Operator is T-Mobile Netherlands
Btw I just accidentaly catched the bug doing it's nasty thing on 3g.
Anyone know where to report this?
Can't replicate this myself, however before submitting this as a bug maybe worth checking out the logcat trace around the time the volume is changing.
With the "SAV" issue, I seem to recall someone saw overrun errors in the log around the time of interference.
You may find something similar in the log or likewise there maybe some entries in there detailing a rogue process doing something a bit wacky which causes your issues.

SAV issue, overruns start on line 4
I'm also having this issue using: ICL35F.I9250XWKL2.
I can't find a way to reproduce it. If/when I find more info, I'll try to keep up to date.
From preliminary tests I've conducted, I now find Talk 4.0.2-235179 to be the culprit.
I have notification on and its tone is Silent. If I'm chatting with someone and that someone replies, the volume changes to 0???
I've written an app that polls the volume and notifies when it changes. Later today I might post the code.
Talk in Silent
Finally have a found the real reason. When Talk is set to:
Notification: System Bar;
Sound: Silent.
When a message comes and the chat is in foreground, the volume is changed to level 3.
The program I've made, once started, poles the sound level each 5 seconds and when it's different a notification appears.
To this post I've attached the .apk, its source and a silent ringtone to overcome this bug.

Thanks for your detective work. This is exactly what was causing my volume to seemingly change at random. It was especially annoying because some days I use gtalk quite a bit and other days not at all.
I linked to your post and this thread on the relevant Google Code Android bug report that someone had created back in December for the same issue. It can be found here if anyone cares to star the issue in hopes of giving this bug more exposure: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22579
I can confirm the problem. It only happens with Talk in the foreground running and with the silent notification on.
Thank you very much, I got the new One X and was wondering if it was a software bug in HTC software....guess not
Whenever I make or receive a call, I see my in-call volume at maximum level! I don't understand why it keeps doing this? I noticed this problem on all 3 of note 2. I keep adjusting to low but randomly just gets reseted to max again. Anyone else having the same issue with T-Mobile Note 2?
Update: finally found the culprit of this problem. The app "Tango" video chat messes with the in-call volume. Once account & app was uninstalled even after the reboot in-call volume setting never changed. Everything stayed as I left it and no more random MAX in-call volume.
Video to show what Tango is doing to my in-call volume.
Nobody has this issue? how come all 3 of my Note 2 has this issue =/
Anyone?
Sorry, this doesn't help but I usually keep my in-call volume at max so I haven't noticed this.

Thanks for the reply. I don't know how you keep the volume at max.. maybe it's just my phones but it's too painfully loud for me.
Would you mind trying to lower the call volume to lowest setting and restart the phone? See if the call volume goes back to max, I would really appreciate that.
For whatever the reason, the volume setting is not getting saved. So annoying since everytime i answer a call, it's trying to blow my eardrums out!
I'm guessing nobody has this in-call volume issues on their T-mobile Note2? Should I be considering an exchange....??
Just FYI multiple post saying anyone? Anyone? Pple just find annoying. Not trying to be rude. But from what I noticed from posts from other forums. Is when pple do that. They will never receive help or a reply from someone. Especially when the OP keeps doing that all in the same day.
Sometimes if you want help. You need patience. Especially here on xda. Pple here don't live there lives to help you. Right when you make a new post. Sometimes it could take days or even a week or two. But I'm positive if you don't do multiple post like this. And wait or even search the web. Even user a different phone. You will find ur answer. Remember google is ur best friend.
Anyways I don't no if its because of my rom or not but mind keeps going to vibrate and I have to keep turning it back to sound + vibrate
Oh ya you also have to be detailed when asking questions. Are you rooted or not. Stock or flashed a rom. Which rom. ...you get the point. The more you tell use the more likely a chance someone will help you. If you choose not to look it up urself
My bad, wasn't trying to be annoying or anything. I searched around in many different forums but still no answers and didn't get any replies on this issue, even the t-mobile support didn't know what was causing this issue. I guess I was running thin on patience.
I'm running all on stock and all 3 devices does this. T-Mobile sales rep said maybe it's part of the feature.. But we all know that's b/s. Changing in-call volume randomly doesn't sound much like a great feature to me....

Ya unfortunately that sucks. If you were rooted I would say try to flash a different rom. But since ur not my best guess would be to search around for an app that has something to do with volume/ in call volume. There's an app for everything these days. Ur just gunna have to read all the details in every volume app you can find. I'm sure there's something. Good luck. If you happen to find something. Post it hear in case others run into the same problem as you in the future.
Am I the only one with this problem? I wish some of the same device/carrier users would give me some feedbacks so I can figure out what to do....
you talking about in call volume or ringer volume? if its in call volume im pretty sure that if i lower it during a phone call it stays that volume even on the next call
im not 100% sure though...and im not sure if it stands through a reboot but i am pretty sure...cause i dont leave my in call volume on max because it is quite loud and distorted...if it always went back up to max i probably wouldve noticed..again not 100% sure

It's the in-call volume. I have no idea what's causing this... When I lower the volume it will stay that way only for that call and next call or sometimes even during the call volume goes up to max randomly. It's driving me nuts cause it's so loud and I can't even answer the call without worrying its gonna blow my eardrums!
I tried restoring factory but that didn't help and all three of my Note 2 do this so I'm lost here. Not like I rooted and modified anything, all is in stock.
Would you mind trying to put in-call volume to lowest and rebooting the phone? See if it goes back to max by default. That's how mine is set to every reboot.

Try rebooting, see if that setting sticks.
It does this all randomly. Setting will stay that way for awhile and all of sudden max volume.

try this
go to dialer -> call settings -> my call sound...there are 2 options that might help you...one for sound settings (maybe choosing one of them will help you) or personalize call sound..that one asks you to plug in ear phones..im not sure what happens after you run that test and if it only applies to earphones but you can try it

Why would it do that... It's not suppose to. I never had that issue with ATT Note, N7000 and i9300... I get the feeling many people just don't pay too much attention to it and when it does go up, people just lower the volume and forget about it.
Whatever the reason setting of the in-call volume isn't being saved. And something is making it to go back to default. Just don't know what though...
Keep your eye on that volume, and check if it goes up randomly.
P.S. I really appreciate the replies, been waiting for awhile.

Yeah, I really didn't want to annoy anyone but this little bug was driving me insane. Spending hours with T-Mobile tech supports weren't even helpful either. I hope it isn't a defective unit... Please let me know if you notice this issue! Thanks again =)
I think I found the culprit. Seems like "Jays headset control" app was causing this issue. It was never an issue on any other device but not sure why it's causing on note2. I uninstalled the app yesterday and so far problem hasn't come back yet. Time will tell but so far so good.
Thanks for looking and replying to my post. I can finally relax!
Update: wasn't jays app... Still having issue.

Hey ive done a bunch of googling and searching and cant find a fix or a reason why this is happening.. I did a full data wipe/cache clear and installed the 12/26 nightly of cyanogenmod 10, and my speakerphone and in call volume is so low i cant even hear someone if im in the car or anywhere with any ambient noise.. the 12/27 didnt fix it for me either.
Any ideas on how to fix this issue? I cant post in the developer forum because of my post count but i have searched and found nothing on how to fix this issue... thanks

I think you mean CM10.1. They're working on it. There is something in the settings that you can change that might help it a little bit. Go to Settings>Advanced>Sound & select ”Extra gain in voice calls". It might help you out a little bit.

Oh, really???
Well, if they haven't gotten to the volume problem yet, from when this response was posted in Dec. 2012... then I guess that their focus on this Beta software 10.1.3 just isn't in the cards for my N7100.
I just installed 10.1.3 yesterday... and am tremendously disappointed in the volume (among other things).
True that "Speaker Phone" during a call is utterly useless... even worse than just putting the phone up to my ear.
Even Lock Screen sound doesn't work.
Some sounds are barely audible... that is if I turn off the TV, close the door to the room, turn off the AC so that the air coming through the ceiling vents doesn't make any noise, etc. etc.
You'd think that after a year, and with the big influx of $$$'s to CM they just MIGHT have gotten around to making it so that when I'm pushing my cart through WalMart... I could actualy hear the conversation without constantly saying "Huh?".
(I'm posting this on all threads i can find because it was also very frustrating for me, with no solution whatsoever).
I had this same exact problem on my Galaxy S3. All my volume settings are at highest, and even when i press the volume up rocker during the call, it doesn't get louder. HERE'S THE SOLUTION THO (after countless hours of trying many, many different things)! Not sure if this works for other phones.
During the call, if you press the volume button, you should see the volume level bar with the "settings" icon next to it appear on your screen (look at the screen while the call is in progress). Press the "settings" button to open up the volume menu. If you're having low volume, you probably have all the volumes at their max. Put your finger on the volume slider and just move it lower then back higher, and you should notice that the volume goes higher than it was before. It's almost like it's stuck at what it thinks is the MAX level, and by sliding it back and forth, it's "unstucking" it, and allowing it to go higher to the true max level. Not sure why it does this, but after doing this, it should remain at the new higher volume for the next calls. I did notice that if you adjust the volume lower for anything else (say when you're watching a video, or turning it down because the ringer or notification sound is too loud), then it will get back to the low call volume and you have to slide it again to get it unstuck.
If anyone knows how to report this issue to the CM 11 coders, please forward...
Hope that helps!
So my wife will be getting a call for a phone interview this Wednesday, and she's concerned about a recent issue with her AT&T S3 running on CM11 nightly 3/22. Her in-call volume is always extremely low regardless of how high the volume is set for calls. I have heard other accounts of this issue cropping up on various devices with builds of CM11 dating back to last year, but I've never come across a fix.
Has anyone encountered this and then resolved it permanently? My wife is very stressed worrying about not being able to hear the interviewer when they call in two days.
Try a different rom, tasks aokp has always been loud for me.

CM11 is available in stable. Why would you/she want to run the phone on a nightly? Guess you have enough time before Wednesday to update to either a stable version or go stock - even if only for the interview.
If you rely on your phone as a phone and actually need it up and running 100% all day everyday, you should be on the stock ROM. I'm sorry but all of these AOSP ROMs are full of bugs that get annoying after a while; one of them being the low call volume.

I lol'd even more at your useless post. I use stuff like V4A and Xposed (if you even know what that is) all the time from this site. You can be on XDA and still expect your phone to work. I was just pointing out that low call volume has always been an issue on a lot of AOSP ROMs, and if you need to use your phone to make a lot of phone calls, you should be on the STOCK ROM.
I'm on an aosp ROM, and I use my phone to make a lot of calls, so you're saying I need to be on stock ROM? Lol... What is "stuff like v4a and xposed"? Sounds complicated for us simple folks. :silly:
Bro, I've been on aosp ROMs since day one.. And never had any issue from phone.apk
BTW I'm not sure of cm still have this but in advance option setting and under sound, there's an option to gain extra volume for voice call.. Try it out and stop with the stock joke Lol

My S3 has been on CM since the day I got it, and CM11 since it came out, and on nightlies. Never had a single issue with call volume. As a matter of fact, I found that CM11 nightlies were overall a lot more stable than even the stock 4.3..
Since she's expecting important calls, you may get her sim card on your phone while you fix the phone for her.

CM11 is only nightly on d2lte.
I would say if you use it for work and if you're wife doesn't know too much about AOSP, go back to stock.

I did notice that if you adjust the volume lower for anything else (say when you're watching a video, or turning it down because the ringer or notification sound is too loud), then it will get back to the low call volume and you have to slide it again to get it unstuck.
If anyone knows how to report this issue to the CM 11 coders, please forward...
Hope that helps!

More simple than that, press volume down while in call then press volume up. That's all you need.

Which is in no way related to the current issue of the volume being ridiculously low but then being fine after playing with it.

That works as well That said, this is a pretty annoying thing. Hope they fix it with future updates.

It's so simple, but this is what worked for my wife. Apparently she had just been mashing the volume up button the whole time. I forgot to report back in this thread after we discovered that.
