To be more precise: I seem unable to adjust the call volume whilst the phone is on my ear & the screen blank - once I lower the phone & the screen comes back I can adjust the volume without any problems. Is it just me, am I missing something?
I also got problem....

no problems even while the screen is blank, why dont u try restarting ur phone and see if it works
and you are using the volume rocker to increase/decrease the call volume right ?
Well, whatever it was it seems to have disappeared after updating the phone to 1.28 - thanks for the quick reply.
I'm having this issue too - HTC One X running 1.29. When I call someone I can change the volume using the rocker on the side while the phone is ringing, but the rocker doesn't seem to do anything once we're talking. I called someone the other day and as it was noisy around me I turned the volume up, but then once they answered it quietened down and I couldn't turn the volume back down. Annoying!
I also have this problem, and from memory it has persisted from 1.26 -> 1.28 -> 1.29
what happens is that I'll take a call, and after the screen turns off from holding it next to my ear, the volume rocker will still work for maybe a minute?
after some time, e.g. 5 minutes (i've never actually timed it), the volume rocker will be completely unresponsive until i take it away from my ear (after screen turns back on)
That's what I experience too. Have to.move phone away from ear to adjust volume....

Just now I received one incoming call,i pressed side volume button,the phone was silenced, I tried again,no matter up volume button or down button,the ring will be silenced.
Is this the normal feature of HTC Touch Pro2? or is the bug of the rom I am using? or there is any setting that can change this behavior?
pls kindly test with your phone, help me with this issue.

I don't think it's a bug, and it's a feature of the tp2. I've used that feature all the time, and it works the same in all the roms I've tried. If you don't want the ring silenced, don't press the side volume button....though I have hit it by mistake when pulling my phone out from time to time....but by this time, you already know you have a call, so no big deal.

thanks for reply,I am relieved.
Aye. normal feature. Its even part of the stock rom. Its easier if you want to silence your phone rather than trying to fumble around on the touch screen if you need to silence it quickly.

Got a new thinking when came back to look at this post,this HTC phone....press volume key to mute incoming call (ringer) is good feature for people,but maybe some people dont like it,they want the phone to ring for a while and let people around him know that he got a good ringtone or he got busy. if the ring stops by accidentally pressing the volume key,he will be pissed off.
Joke is joke,but will be nice if there is option to disable this press-volume-key-to-mute-incoming-call thing.
The "click" that follows each volume pressing drives my wife crazy, especially at night. Of coarse there is an option to get rid of the woman, but before taking such drastic measure, maybe the experienced folks here have an alternate idea??
The click should only happen when changing ringer volume, and i don't see why you would need to change it that much...
imo, it would be easier just to use the silent/vibrate/volume widget, since ringer volume is usually none or max...

Thank you for your reply.
Well, basically you are right. However, in order to avoid the difficulty to press the power button (awfully located) , I am using the "Fix Broken Power Button" app. That requires the use of the volume keys as a substitute to the power switch. Now, each "waking up" the DHD is accompanied with a loud "click", the one whicj I am trying to eliminate.
Thank you for your attention.
Maybe much better to change your wife? )))

Try a different app, there shouldn't be a sound when unlocking to the lock screen instead of skipping it
CM7 has options to unlock to the lock screen or skip it, and skipping it makes a sound
My EVO is forever switching itself to silent mode without me doing it (that I am aware of). I never intentionally set it to that myself. It's either in full sound/vibrate mode or vibrate only. However, often while texting I'll sit my phone down, pick it up later, and see I have missed texts and the phone is in silent mode.
How does that keep happening? Is it something I'm doing while hitting the power button to shut the screen back off?
the volume keys can set the ringer to up, down, or on vibrate.

Right, but I have my volume maxed out all the time, and I know that during the process of sitting my phone down on the desk I'm not holding in the volume button and running it all the way down to nothing. Plus, I don't think you can alter the ringer volume with the volume keys while the screen is off, can you?
*ok I just figured it out*
What I must be doing is accidentally squeezing the volume up button as I grip the phone and press the power button to shut the screen off. That puts the phone in silent mode. Mystery solved!
Some (a lot) of ROMs, including stock, also have an option to silence/send to voicemail when the phone is placed face down, as well. Sometimes, it seems like these options can inadvertently be triggered by setting it down wrong, or even moving it around in your pocket. Just something I have noticed.

I forgot about that option. I always make sure my phone doesn't do that as I always have my hands in my pockets when I walk and almost always have my phone face down on my desk when not using it.
Hi
on HTC devices I was able to use the volume rocker to set the device to vibration and by pressing the volume down button again to mute my device completely.
This is not possible any more in ICS? I can only set the device to vibration. What about muting?
The thing I am wondering about is, that I can use the HTC widget to do that and sometimes my profile manager (setting profiles) also is able to enter silent mode. So sometimes I can see the crossed note icon in notification bar, but most often I only see the vibration icon.
What is that supposed to be?
Frank
The device goes from 7,6,5,4,3,2,1,SILENT,VIBRATE

If you hold volume down until it goes to vibrate mode, just press it up once and you will then have silent mode
No idea. But for me it works like a charm. volume rocker first all the way down - vibrate mode and once more and its silent mode (or vice versa, cant remember exactly). Same with the widget. Press it once, silent, two times, vibrate.
Not working for me... 3, 2, 1, vibrate. Volume down no more reaction. Volume up again, volume setting to 1.
But good to know that this should work. So maybe something is messing with the settings in background.
im not sure as i dont own the one x yet, but maybe it is like on the gnex with stock ICS that u need to go to the settings first and check the option: silent mode!
This is really weired.
Using the volume rocker to show the volume slider and then pressing the icon in front of the slider switches between the 3 modes as expected.
Using the volume rocker now, after playing with the settings, sometimes switches to silent mode but most of the time still only vibrant.
Sometimes I see a short silent mode icon in notification (just for the part of a second).
I have the HTC widget on home screen showing the mode. This often shows a different mode as the icon in the not.area.
So whats's wrong with my device???
I even uninstalled my profile manager for testing. No change...
Using the rocker it will go from loud to quiet then vibrate, now just press up on the rocker and it will go from vibrate to silent.
use the rocker then slide the thing down = sound off.
I attached 2 screenshots showing the illogical settings I get using the volume slider...
First image:
You can see the mute icon in not-area and the zero volume value in slider but the HTC widget shows vibrate
Second image:
Still muted but showing vibration profile here too
Why am I the only one having that problem???
OK, solved it. Resetted to factory default and restored step by step. Seems that the setting data storage was damaged. Skipped this on restore and everything is fine now!!!
I use the widget because I cannot get it to go into silent mode using the volume rockers (but then neither could my Xperia Arc on the stock ROM, so I guess that's normal)

Hello I was having a this problem for awhile(long time). When I turn on the m8, sometimes volume control bar comes up even though I did NOT click any volume button at all. - This was not a big deal but..
Now after the update to marshmallow, the volume bar problem got even worse when turning the device.. Sometimes it stops me from viewing/touching the screen cause it pops up right back eventho I click the part where it is not volume bar. After few times it disappears or if I click the volume control it goes away.
Does anyone have same problem as me? or is it just me? Any solution???
