Hi, so I was recently listening to music on my phone and went to change the volume, the button felt awefully dull and recessed, so observing the phone I noticed the button was bent inwards like a v, anyone else had problems with their volume buttons bending, I haven`t even dropped the phone, how is this possible?, thanks.

Well, its hard to make a guess from here.. Can you upload some photos of your volume button ?

I've been lurking and downloading from this great wiki since purchasing my MDA III 2 months ago. Pretty happy with it, but there is one missing feature I would like to have:
Is there a way to make the volume slider on the side of the BA turn off the phone ringer? Or can I program one of the buttons to turn off the phone ringer? More than once I have had to fumble with the BA to shut it up in a meeting or, worse, in a lecture with me as the lecturer!
I use PPCProfiles Pro... you can have buttons on the today page to instantly change to silent/loud/etc etc. Another good one is PocketZenPhone which I used to use but it caused some instability for me.
i recommend you use PocketZenPhone.. more stable
Yeah well as I said in my message, I had more stability issues with PZP
If, when the phone rings, you want to silence the device, the volume up/down slider does that anyway without adjusting the volume of the phone.
If you want to turn the ringer on or off by using the volume slider that's another story. I'm using O2Plus which gives you some phone customisations (not specific to O2) like phone/divert profiles. Can't say I've tried any others.

Thanks for the quick suggestions.
To clarify, I need to mute the ringer using one of the physical buttons exposed with the BA in an Innopocket aluminum case, without having to open the case. When the phone rings at an inappropriate time, I want to reach into my pocket and mute the ringer with one touch. The volume slider is exposed, but it won't shut off the ringer.
Just out of curiosity, I just bought the same innopocket hardcase today. Don't you find it to scratch easily your BA because of the sharp edges of the case and the very very tight closing system?
BTW, i use one of the hardware button (record) to switch between PZP profiles (quiet)

thanks for the advice on PZP. I've been using the innopocket for about 2 months and I don't see any scratches on the BA. I am pretty rough on PDAs, breaking 3 screens in 4 years, so my devices need the armor.
If I get a call and want to mute the ring tone, I just move the Volume slider on the side up or down one time, and it mutes the ring tone.
Yours should do the same???
bosjo, you are right! I am an idiot! I will now return to lurking and try not to waste any more time....
He he, give your self a pad on the shoulder and move on :wink:
We have all been there :wink:

Hi,
Qtek 2020 with 2003SE or Buzz WM5 does that!
In a incoming call, I can stop the ring using volume button slider.
Is you use WisBar Advance 2 (release for WM5) then this feature will not work, but they are working on it.
Hi guys!
I wonder if you can help me test one thing. I noticed a quite faint but a bit annoying "pop" sound when pressing a button on screen when sound is muted. It is like the speakers make a slight "pop" noise when starting up.
Do you have this aswell? It is only when the tablet is completly muted using the volume button.

Thx for checking. It isnt a big problem, just was a bit annoying when lying in bed and everything was dead silent. It was then that I noticed it. I can easily live with it just wanted to check if it was normal.

Actually I have a fan on roof with a loose bearing. Constant irritation for me But today that you pointed out, I switched off that stupid fan, and noticed a slight hiss too, beside the pop sound.
Noticed something earlier. Decided to turn the volume down earlier while on a call and the buttons were not doing anything.
Moved the phone away to look at the screen and they worked to turn the volume down, put the phone back to my ear, decided I'd turned it down a bit too much and again, not working.
Seems the volume control works when the screen is on and away from my head but not when it's off and to my ear.
Does anybody else see the same thing?
Cheers
Tim
This happens to me as well, need to take phone away from ear to adjust the volume. Anyone have a fix for this?

So, I bought an N1 from Expansys not that long ago and have generally quite enjoyed my time with it. (5.0.2 is a goddamn clusterf*** and clearly no one bothered to use the tablet in landscape orientation with headphones plugged in before finalizing the design, but I digress.)
I've just noticed something peculiar, though. The speaker volume seems to be substantially higher when the screen off rather than when the screen is on. In other words, if I'm playing music via the speakers with the screen on, for example, and I hit the power button, the volume jumps dramatically. Similarly, if the screen is off and music is playing, hitting the power button drops the volume back down. I'm completely stock and am running the latest Taiwan build.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? I've tried it out with Play Music and YouTube and with the equalizer on and off. Nothing makes a difference. This doesn't seem like a hardware issue, since the higher volume level works perfectly fine as far as I can tell. The speakers seem rather quiet with the screen on, so it would be super awesome if the N1 could just use the higher volume level, y'know, all the time.
What could be causing this issue? I'm running the same apps I always do. This is the first time I've encountered this kind of issue on an Android device. The closest I've come is a Nexus 6 that would get louder and quieter seemingly at random. But in that case, the volume seemed to go up and down continuously, whereas in this case there are only two different volume levels that are linked to the screen turning off or on. What gives? I'd like to blame this on 5.0.2, but I have no evidence to support that claim.

Try updating to 5.1.1. then and see if there is any difference
I'm on official BSL7 ROM Android 10, only root with Dr. Ketan guide (thank you very much!), but no mods or other modifications. When I press back soft key or other parts of the screen, there comes a strange clicking noise from speakers, I know for sure the sound comes from speakers, I keep press and hear the clicks from speakers. I have disabled touch sounds and searched on Google for noises like this, there is some guy with S10 I think with similar problem and he also does not know what is it. Also, the sound is random, pure random, sometimes I heard it, sometimes not. It's annoying and it's not camera repositioning lens, because I am not using the camera at that time, even in games I can hear this annoying clicking sound.
What could it be? Are there any others with problem like this? It is software problem? I have reseted the phone, still there, but it triggers only when screen is touched. I have inspected the phone, it is not a gap between screen and glass, also I had it with original plastic screen protector from Samsung which comes from factory. Tried to listen to music, the speakers are fine, not damaged. Only when I click the screen and purely random, so it's not a mechanical issue, the screen is not damaged.
