Official Roms and incoming call's audio level

I cant get to put the incoming voice level to completely minimum , or may be level 1 or 2, its always in level 3 and can increase it to max. is this new officil rom bug, or something wrong with my phone's hardware. which by the way was working perfectly with black majik rom.

did you install any applications? like phone alarm??
i have an idea to make sure the problem is not from the rom do hardreset and directly make phone call to see if this problem there or not!!

I had installed but removed it

I haven't notice that kind of bug (I can change volume from the bottom till top), but this is true that new ROM has much louder in-call volume, even with minimum level. I've pointed that already in some other thread.

But can u make it completely zero

What do you mean by 'zero volume'? Scroll the volume bar to the bottom, or mute volume completely? I can do both, actually, however muting is done by tapping a button on the screen.

I cant do that

this is what i mean i can scroll down to the end but the volume still remains as if its on level 3. i know i can mute with button, but i need to control the incoming volume while talking

I've just checked, and it is changing a volume while going down to the bottom, and I can hear a difference between level 3 and 0...

After reflashin rom still problem
i re-flashed the official extract rom from dopod, still the problem persists, of controlling minimum volume of coming call. it just doesnt go to the mininum volume of zero level.

I've the same problem. The volume slide can go up or down during calls but doesn't seem to have any effect to the volume that's coming thru the phone.

standard phone features not found: only this sim, adjust vibration ...

Hey there,
while I'm still getting used to my first smartphone, I am surprised not to find some standard features that even my old benq siemens delivered:
-for security issues i'd like to limit my phone to only use the current sim card - is that possible? currently, it also has no pin code, only the one of the sim - where could I set the pin code for the phone itself?
-is there a chance to adjust the vibration of the phone? I hate ringtones, my phones are nearly always on vibration, but the desire one is almost not recognizeable. I am wearing the screen side towards the body to protect it from breakage, so it is even weaker than normaly...
there was more, I just can't think about it by now - i'll keep adding
thx so far!

and i could use a longer tone for the kalendar reminder - maybe one that just stops when a button is pressed instead of this second long tone - is there a chance?
and how about the other options i'm missing...am I blind or is this little wonder missing the simplest things?
thx

nobody an idea?

If your phone is running Froyo (Android 2.2), you can have a pin lock when you unlock the screen: go to /settings/security/set up screen lock/PIN.

yeah, i know, but seriously - who wants to endure that each time he unlocks the screen?
Can't believe that there is no way to simply have a pin assigned to the phone as well as to the sim...

You only have to set up the PIN once. You'll just have to slide down and enter the code afterwards.
Or get a Nokia 3310!

[Q] Disabling ring swipe unlock

Guys, have a new One X. Am gonna leave it on the stock rom for a few weeks.
How in the name of god do you disable the ring swipe unlock screen?
Even when I put in none, it's still there. When I put in PIN unlock, I have to swipe the ring first, then put in my PIN. It's seems pointless
Thanks

just unlock it, you will get much better performance using arhd rom and do things like adfree (remove ads from free aps) and reset minfree values for multi tasking, etc.
let me put it mildly, the stock rom sucks,

You're confusing device lock with screen lock. If you only had a pin (device lock, for security) you would be forever unlocking and entering the wrong pin while in your pocket.
The ring part (screen unlock, to prevent unwanted input) can't be removed without modification.

Thanks. Looks like customised rom it is so!

Right, I unlocked it and stuck Android Rev. HD on it. So far so good. Seem like a nice ROM, even for the lack of bloatware coming from the stock ROM.
I can't find this customization. Does it exist? Am I stuck the ring unlock?
Thanks

I for one would also like to disable the ring lock seems like overkill as you still have to press the volume button to activate the phone
so these are the precautionary steps:
1. Power button
2. Swipe Ring
3. Security feature (Facial Recognition, Pin, Pattern)
I think as @flanobrian stated we want to cut out part 2 of the process
its just abit of overkill that I would like to control

Yes, the problem is, I've the phone set up for Microsoft Exchange for my work emails, which requires me to also put in a 5 digit pin. It's a pain in the ass have to swipe the ring and also do the pin.

Android always has a lockscreen so you will always have to unlock it and then enter your pin, regardless of Android version

My previous Galaxy S didn't have that. All I had to do was hit the home button and the enter the PIN?

i dont know if this is what you want but try this to get rid of (ring unlock) go into settings - personalize - then lock screen styles and go to the last one it is called
No Lock Screen and apply
i did this and now no longer have to use the ring just power button and im in
hopefully i read this right and
hope this is what you wanted

[Q]How to use the knock code without using the knock on

So as the title says i am hoping someone could help me with this issue.
Basically what i wanted is for my phone to wake up when i put on the right knock code and doesnt react to other touches especially the double knock on because i am quite desperate right now since my phone keep turning on when i put it on my pocket which makes my pocket warm/hot and drains the battery.
Thx a lot for people that spend time to help me with this issue

warning you will lose knock off also (no other way they are interviened)
step 1) open dialer and dial 3845*#(modelnumber)#
step 2) go to knock on/off and press it
step 3) use the slider to dissable
step 4) press home

Any way to disable the proximity sensor?

I'm having issues with the screen not turning back on after a call or even listening to audio messages. I have to relock and then unlock to get it to work, very annoying.
I'm on 8.1, on magisk with xposed.
Could someone recommend me an app or a module?

https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/71510515
You along with a bunch of us... ota messed it up

Good to know, I'm not the only one. Doesn't seem related to screen protector.
Really wish I can disable the proximity sensor for now.

I guess I came to the wrong thread. I don't have any issues like that or at least I don't notice it because I is the power button to turn the screen in/off all the time and I set my lock screen to not relock the phone for 5 minutes or something like that. That way I don't gotta enter my unlock code. There also is a setting which is supposed to keep your phone unlocked as long as you don't set it down. There also is a setting that keeps your phone from locking if you are within range of a Bluetooth (headseat maybe) device. I dunno try some of those options maybe you won't need to type your code in as much.
Personally I came here because I am looking for a way to completely disable my proximity sensor. I absolutely hate them on all phones. How stupid is it that they put the proximity sensor I right up next to where you have to put your hand if you want to pull down the menu bar??? It's like I go to pull down the menu bar - screen off. ****! Power button, slide open the lock screen (no code needed). Pull menu bar - screen off ****! Power.... Slide....menu bar - screen off. Of course it only does that during calls however that's a pretty annoying time because you're usually focused on other things and not wanting to **** with the screen going on and off.
Who the needs a proximity sensor to detect one's face anyway? I just click the power button every time I put the phone to my ear. Any time I don't do that, I run the risk of my cheek pressing the mute button for the 9000th time in my life. I do love Android though.

So it works too well for you with your finger but not enough for your face to prevent muting? LOL. Sorry never had that problem. I just avoid the middle if I had to get to the notifications during a call.

It happens often when I'm trying to toggle BT because my BT icon is directly under it.... For example. Anyway, I don't find it useful to even have an proximity sensor. That's why I stumbled in here, my search query was the exact title. I'm not really experiencing the problem the others were talking about though....

Who needs a proximity sensor? Really? You basically answered your own question. To turn off the screen when you put it to your face so that your face doesn't press anything on the screen. Having to press the power button every time you put the phone to your face and then press it again every time you take it away from your face would suck.

I always use speaker or bluetooth and proximity sometimes turns the phone off spuriously so I disable it.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using XDA Labs

Yeah.....no basically pressing the power button is where it's at. It the again I'm not one who likes everything done for me. Absolutely NO PHONE I've ever owned has had a proximity sensor that was worth a ****. They all, at one time or another, allow the screen to wake up subsequently letting the microphone mute button to enable. The mute button is another piece of Android trash that needs redesigning. It is not often that mute is needed so why not out that in a drop-down menu or something since it inevitably gets pressed during calls due to a ****y proximity sensor and Screen wake setup.
I also drive a manual transmission car. Actually the last 5 cars I've owned have been manual shifted. When YOU are in 100% control of your devices, there are certain niceities which are otherwise unavailable. But that's only if you're the type who doesn't gotta have everything done for them.
As far as you go buddy, if you like the proximity sensor that's fine. Personally I don't ****ing care what you like. thanks for a wasted Fred post which contacted my email to have me come back here to tell you what a waste of time that was thanks.

Sure that's fine, be one of those snide Facebook commenters always gotta add their smartass quip or opinion like it's an itch you can't help but scratch. I just think it's pathetic that you get some kind of satisfaction out of that. But..... you know, everybody needs to feel like they make an impact in the world. Have a fufulling life. ?

.
So I assume you have earbuds, or if not, you can get some really cheap earbuds from the gas station, and when needed, you can plug it in, and it will register that it has earbuds in and will light up again, disabling the proximity sensor. You can leave it in as well, until you need it to talk, unless it will work while calling. This should work, I haven't personally tried it.

Hi,
Hope you managed to solve the issue.
If you haven't then
1. Install sensor disable from xposed repo. It's an old app so there are a few bugs when you try to remove the sensor as such.
2. Buy the Pro version or use lucky patcher to disable in app purchases for Sensor Disabler.
3. Go to the settings of Sensor Disabler and blacklist the apps that you don't want the proximity to work on.(I had problems with my WhatsApp. But it works perfectly now.)
