Media volume won't go up... - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Having a weird issue where even when I set my sound profile to normal the media volume will not go up. The level indicator pops up in the screen but it simply stays at the minimum with the x next to the speaker. I should note that I normally use switch pro to change this, but it still doesn't work even if I go into settings. A reboot does fix the issue.

I had this same problem last night, and I also use Switch Pro. After I pulled out the battery it went back to normal and now it doesn't do it. In your Switch Pro, do you have "Mute Media Volume" selected? I had it selected on my phone and that's when I had the issue. Before the battery pull I unchecked it and after it it worked normally.

Yea, I do have that checked. I'll try your method and report back.

So I did what you said and the sounds does work now, but the problem is that the silent setting no longer muted the media volume. Switching back to the checked box results in the original issue again... gggggrrrrrrr

Update: looks like its definitely switch. Force killing it returns media sound. Guess we now wait for an update.

I have the same problem but I'm not using switch. I have calculkins Rom with kingx #11. If I put it at mute it won't allow me to up the volume either in settings or on side of phone.

i have exacly the same problem with the sound i still have the stock ROM on it but and i dont use Switch Pro.. pulling the battery does solved the problem so tnx i hope it was a 1x only
Edit: PS i only removed the s-off and rooted the phone

Nils business gingersense 3.0 won't go silent

I've been 1.5 for a few days now. I haven't had any problems with any features until now. I went to work and put my phone on vibrate as usual. During my shift my phone rang on full volume. I looked at the notification bar and it said that it was indeed on silent, while it was ringing loudly. I hit the volume buttons which quieted the ringer. I turned the volume all the way up then all the way down to go back to vibrate. The volume changing sound acted normally, however, when it hit silent it didn't silence the volume changing sound and a small section of the volume bar remained. Even when it was truned to vibrate the icon for vibrate appeared but the volume bar still stayed visible a little. Please help as I'd like to get this fixed. The only thing I can think of is that I played my first game of Homerun Battle 3d last night. Other than that nothing new has been installed or used.
I suggest you reflash the rom, I'm a regular on the rom and have never had that issue. Did you do a flash over or fresh install initially?
I did a fresh install of 1.4 and then flashed over that with 1.5. Id' hate to have to do a fresh install and have it happen again after I get it all set up. Other than that. I am digging this ROM.

Some app is running and acting like a media app causing. Turn down media volume in settings and see if that does it.
First just try and clear cache and dalvik in recovery.
Then if that does not work flash over without wipe and see if that helps.
So I tried all if those things and nothing worked. Looks like I'll have to do a full wipe and flash. It'sa strange thing. It also seems like the volume settings aren't applying themselves. Just a heads up. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Oh on another note has there been any headway on the mms over wifi front?

[Q] Silent mode isn't silent on CM7

Okay so I noticed a few days ago that the silent mode wasn't working on my G2 when my phone rang despite it being in that mode. The icon was in the status bar, and I couldn't figure out how to make it actually become silent. It had worked before, but I'm not sure exactly when it stopped working. So yesterday, to try to eliminate any problems, I wiped user data, and pretty much everything and flashed a fresh install of CM 7.0.3. I tried putting the phone into silent mode through settings, through the lockscreen slider, and ultimately by trying to just use the volume rocker. It was then that I noticed that on the volume prompt that the silent mode icon was showing but there was still a bit of the volume percentage left in the bar. I really can't figure out what to do now, suggestions?
Reflash rom or try another

I'm having the same issue on MyTouch 3G Slide. It was working normally for the few months that I flashed this ROM... but for me it started after I replaced the Flex Cable the other day.
Playing with the "Sound" and "CyanogenMod Settings > Sound" settings does not do anything. The only way to really get silence is to manually slide the volume bar in the "Sound" settings to empty. Some things still have sound though such as my camera focus/shutter - before I was able to take a photo silently but not there's the ridiculously loud camera noise.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Okay so after flashing Virtuous, MIUI, and CM7.1 RC1, my problem still persisted. I was finally about to give up, so I just flashed a backup I had from about two weeks ago. When I restarted the phone, the volume settings were just fine, and back to a normal state. I must've flashed something recently that messed it up

I'm not really that experienced with these kind of hardware problems, sorry bud

Volume Issues?

I've been loving my new LGOG, but having a minor issue.
Yesterday night and now again this morning i have lost all media volume. All other volume levels work fine. When tying to turn up the volume using the buttons on the side of phone, i see the volume slider but does not increase. I also tied to move the slider on the screen to increase, the slider moves but then after i lift my finger it reverts back to no volume. Both times i noticed, i was using different apps so I'm not sure if it is an app issue or not.
I reboot the phone and fixes it (really fast reboot compared to my last phone). I'm trying to recreate the problem but nothing so far.
Anyone else having this issue?

This happens to me. Usually if I have Netflix open, then try to watch something on hulu or YouTube while Netflix is in the background. Simply closing Netflix seems to fix it for me.

Had this happen once, had to reboot.

I do have netflix and could be the culprit. Will check it out and update.

I saw it once. Even went to the main sound menu to check volume sliders and 2 of them were greyed out. Still not entirely sure what I did to fix it.
I had the same issue. I would turn up the volume and I use 3 different music apps. I turn the volume up and down and it stays the same. I exit one and open the other and no luck. I have to restart the phone in order to get it to work again. I don't like the fact that the volume levels are too low. I installed the DSP Manager and no luck with the performance. I later installed Walkman with sound enhancements and it did help a little. Stll trying to see if there are other solutions.
I've tried to replicate but have been unable to do so. It has only happened to me those 2 times which got me to start this thread.
I don't know if was a fluke or what. Makes no sense.
Anyway, a reboot fixed my issue when it happened.

Galaxy S3 Volume Not Working

Hey, i'm new to the forms so i just though i'd give you a background on my problem. Basically at random times when i try to turn up or down the volume the phone won't let me. Its almost like volume is disabled. I thought it could be an app or the recent firmware update but it seems like that ins't the problem. The only way i can get my volume to work is by rebooting my phone. Then i can adjust the volume for a few hours, until it happens again. I've had this problem for about a week now and its extremely annoying. I apologize if this is not in the correct category.
The attached imaged is what it looks like when i cannot adjust my volume.
Same Problem Here
I have the exact same problem. It's very annoying as I pretty much have to restart my phone at least once a day just for some volume.
I've had it happen randomly too. Only solution I've seen is a reboot

What roms are you guys using? I see its not stock so if you all have the same one its probably the rom causing the problem.
Odin back to stock snd see if it still happens.

[Q] Vibration Option Missing After ROM Upgrade

Hi guys,
So i upgraded my T989D from Koodo stock 4.1.2 to PAC-MAN v23.0.0 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2332229 .
Everything was running fine for the first 2 days (besides having to set the governor to samsung, as default interactive would severely lag the phone). However, yesterday the phone froze and would not turn on properly (would get stuck on CM boot screen). Eventually after a few battery pulls it loaded up, but I cannot put the phone into vibrate mode. It goes from silent to sound and skips vibrate. All options within Settings > Sound relating to vibrate have disappeared. I tried rebooting multiple times with no success. Also tried searching google/xda but nothing similar popped up.
Any ideas on how to fix this issue would be highly appreciated!
Just make sure you have the kernel where it sits right with out lag so you can use the rom right also for the vib reboot the phone once ,twice its a known issue but should work :thumbup:

By kernel are you referring to the performance control? If yes, than I have already set the governor to "Samsung" and it does not lag at all.
I have restarted multiple times (it does freeze during boot quite often, requiring more restarts), but I can never get the vibration function back.
Try another ROM and see it it happens there

Ended up installing a new kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230064
Vibrate option is back. However the phone still gets stuck on the boot screen. Have to do multiple battery pulls before it loads up properly.
