htc one m8 volume bar popup without clicking - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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???

Help - Volume up button brings me to home screen!!

Hi,
I have a AT&T Tilt2 on which suddenly the volume rocker up button stop working as volume button and then brings me to the home screen from within any app!! I am unable to figure out why this would happen - its a stock AT&T ROM with some apps that I installed like - OperaBeta, HDWallS, Resco.
Even when I hold down the call drop button for sometime, the device does not lock! It vibrates but does nothing - just shows me the home screen.
Any idea on why this would happen ? has anyone seen this happen to their cell too ?
Thanks
Dhanvi
My volume buttons occasionally acts up too. They suddenly act as up and down keys rather than volume up and down keys. Very rarely though. A soft reset makes it go away each time.
...guess it was having an identity crisis...
I've been having problems with my volume buttons. And soft reseting doesn't solve the problem. The volume buttons work in the lock screen. But when i'm at the home screen they just open and close the volume screen.
I have a tilt 2 with the stock rom.

Where is the silent mode???

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?

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)

Can't adjust volume during call

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....

mute using volume buttons

Hey,
In most phones with ICS and above, when clicking the volume down button few times the sound is muted, but vibration is still on. Then, when you click one more time, the phone gets fully muted, with the vibration disabled.
For some reason, (my) note 2 doesnt behave that way.
I cannot disable the vibrations using just the volume keys, so I have to do this in the status bar menu, or in the power off menu.
Any ideas?
Hey,
Same problem here.. But with - G2.. Since i flashed JB Leak
Any ideas?

Its a Samsung "feature". I guess some talented dev could change this.
It's funny that it enables vibration this way, cause i have disabled it in settings ^^ Samsung must have some morons working there ^^ would be nice to get this fixed so i could mute my phone without touching screen..

Volume stuck in mute

Hey guys really need your help. I've noticed that my volume is getting stuck in like a mute mode. It doesn't ring at all and the volume controls do not work. I primarily notice this especially after I have connected a bluetooth device to my phone. I tried doing a search and couldn't find any info on this. I did find the issue pertaining to older phones but their recommended "closing all apps" didn't fix the problem. The only way I can get my volume to function again is to power cycle my phone. Downside, is unless I'm constantly monitoring my phone, I don't always notice that it has happened and have missed several calls as a result.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
if you press the volume up or down and then press the speaker icon (that appears on top left) one or two times and then you can increase the volume and decrease as normal, it will solve the problem, i dont know how i got stuck with mute but this solved my problem at least
