Hello guys
I was using my heaphones with my pixel xl yesterday and tried t lower my volume on my headphones remote and it didnt work. I thought it might be the headphones but I tried it on my nexus 6 and my laptop all buttons worked fine. Anyone else having this issue?
my headphones are 1more triple driver which are android and ios compatible.
I have the exact same headphones and its the same on mine...but ONLY when listening to music with Google Play. The volume down button WORKS on a phone call. I asked 1More about this, which was escalated to their engineers and they couldn't figure it out.
Doesn't make any sense that the volume down button would work in call, but not music.

Yeah I can't get it to work at all. if i hold it for a little it plays musics then lowers the volume its weird. not sure if its the phone or the heaphones lol. Ireplaced my heaphones before because they caused my laptop to randomly lower the volume. not sure why it only does it on this phone.
I might try some other heaphones if I can get my hands on some. The apple heaphones I have dont work at all but I didnt expect them to
I've submitted a couple detailed problem reports on this issue 10 - 14 days ago. Was told that the engineers are looking into it. Has to do with how the phone handles the voltages from the jack and pin. Likely also why Google is emphasizing this area and setting standards in their hardware spec manual. In my case, using volume down brings up the google assistant.

Connect your phone to a stereo with a standard 3.5mm audio cable and set media volume to max. Play some music, eject the cable, plug it back in, resume playing music. For some reason the audio volume is automatically lowered. Increasing it back to max works just fine but you do get a notification saying "Loud music may harm your hearing if you listen to it for a long time" while you do that.
I only listen to music in my car using aux 3.5mm. I control volume using the headunit and this "feature" is annoying as heck.
Any way to disable the volume auto-lowering?
thats the way all of them work, also was the same on old galaxy s device. happens on ipad also.
i think the reason is they dont want you blowing your brains out when you plug your headphones in if you forgot to turn down the media volume before you unplugeed them
I've been in HTC world for past 5 years and never had a need for such feature... all I'm trying to figure out is how to disable this on my new sammy
I listen via the 3.5 port in my car and can confirm the original Epic 4G did NOT behave this way. (At least not when running stock--Voodoo drivers did do this by default but you could override them.)
It pisses me off too and the NS4G never did this when I had it. I can live with it but just annoying.
I solved it through tasker. Not elegant, but it works.
true, also a hack... solves one problem but creates another. when i DO use headphones i set volume low and taking 3.5mm out and back in resets volume to max. ouch
i wonder if there is a way in Tasker to simply re-set volume to whatever it was just before 3.5mm was inserted.
Yea, you can do this. Create a variable to hold the volume, update it whenever the media volume is changed. When headphones are plugged it, just set the volume based on the variable. Imo, this wouldn't help much though. If you insist on playing media at max volume through your car, you're still going to blow up your ears when you plug in headphones.
I'd recommend setting the volume offset on your stereo (slack on some radios, I think) to be ideal when the phone is at the reduced volume. This is what I do.

the issue at hand is a bit more complex. consider this scenario:
i'm in a car driving and someone calls me.
i pop out the 3.5mm and answer the call.
once done talking, i pop 3.5mm back in and resume music.
now the volume is NOT what it was since sgs2 lowered it automatically trying to "save" my hearing.
similar story happens when i get out of my car for few minutes and upon coming back in i constantly have to turn the volume back up.
changing the in-car headunit volume is not helping since my cell is not the only device used there. there is built-in radio, built-in cd player, other portable players, etc that i (and others) use. no need to tweak main system just because one of many devices is being an #!$le about media volume.
ugh, still looking for a right solution. i'll go ahead and try to mess with tasker but that will be just patching the problem, not solving it

Is it just me, or notifications don't play through the headset?
When I play Pandora radio via headphones and an email arrives the music pauses, as usual, and...notification sound only comes through the speaker..
Can someone confirm this?
Thanks.
I think I have noticed the same thing, though I don't remember it playing over the phone speaker?
I could've sworn I saw a setting that let you choose whether a notification was sent through the headset or speaker...But I just went hunting through all the settings and can't find it.
not sure what headsets you guys are using... whenever i am playing music through my headphones (no mic) i always get a notification sound, came as default. i don't recall changing anything
well ive used 3 different head sets nowmal earbuds bluetooth and one with a mic and i get nothing from any of them
Mine works too. I use a regular JVC in-ear headsets to listen to music, and I can hear phone calls ringing, as well as message notifications coming in. Nothing seems any different than my other android phone. It might be a setting that u accidentally changed maybe?
every thing is stock other than having root
Well obviously it has something to do with the headset itself. Mine is Skullcandy FIX and it works dandy (other then inline vol up/down buttons) on Skyrocket and Atrix 4g, but on Nitro not only it doesn't get notifications through it, the mic doesn't work either!
I also have some brand I don't remember, from RadioShack store - no notifications, but at least mic works.
im going ot go to my AT&T store today and see what they will have ill post which headset works
Hello,
I have a Windows Phone 7 Tango (Pdaimatejam) 7.8, and I experienced this problem with Mango too (Way too many times).
The problem is, when I have music playing in my pocket (or just through an AUX cable in the car), the music just stops, resumes, stops, resumes, and then stops playing all together. This is so annoying, especially while driving. And sometimes, randomly, "Microsoft Listen" or something comes up, the voice recognition.
Can anyone help me? This is one of the most annoying bugs I've encountered, and it's impossible to use it on a regular basis that way.
Also mentioning, that this problem starts after awhile of listening to music.
i had a problem similiar to this where the volume would goto full blast but it was from the 3.5 jack and i changed aux cables to one that fit better and it stopped

Yeah, but I can't just change my headphones jack or my inbuilt aux cable (It's sort of a stupid hack by Mazda representative)

Make sure you don't sit on the headphone cable... Lol...
Microsoft Tellme? There is only 2 ways to get it : Press and hold the Windows Button / Press and hold the Call button on the handfree headset.

I'm not sitting on the cable, and it came up randomly, while listening to music. Didn't have a call button.

Hard Reset the phone is more like it now... do it, and see if it fix your problem. If not, it is time to call the operator, give them a dispatch and have a new device, lol
It looks like your headset needs replacement. Mine does that to me on my Titan. When the cable is under my coat, it accidentally stops as it's pressed a little by mistake.
Also, the way the jack makes the contact with your phone could be another cause. I had/have but don't use HTC Sensation XL, and it did the same with the beats audio that comes with it. The jack doesn't fit properly. Hence a little angled movement and songs break. Play, pause.
With Windows Phone it's more likely to stop even if your jack is a lil out of the socket since as soon as the headphone is removed, the music stops by default.
Not sure where or what to search for on this issue but it's been killing me with my Nexus for the past few months.
Coming from a couple of HTC phones one thing I really liked about them, which might have been Sense feature, was the phone having two completely separate audio volumes one for when headphones were plugged in and another for when the phone was hooked up via Bluetooth.
My problem is I listen to music very low with headphones at work, then unplug them before getting into my truck, automatically hooking up to the Bluetooth to stream and the volume stays at the low headphone volume. To hear it over truck stereo I need to turn the phone BT volume all the way up. Fast forward to when I sit back down at work to listen to music, my headphone volume is back to the last BT volume or maxed out. Just a real annoyance and find it hard to believe this is the way Google designed it and has nothing in place when I'm having an off day and don't manually fix it before I listen to my headphones again and blast my eardrums like I did yesterday.
Is this how the Nexus should handle BT and Headphone volumes? Is there any kind of fix for this?
Thanks in advance
So I've been having some problems in general with bluetooth performance. A couple of days ago I was trying to sync a wireless bluetooth speaker with my 5X and the 5X couldn't even find the speaker when the speaker was in pairing mode. My tablet and HTC ONE do not have problems finding the speaker. I finally got it pair after multiple attempts. I then launched Amazon music and tried to adjust the volume after audio was playing. I clicked the volume down button all the way to zero and the speaker was still quite loud. Clicking the volume up button didn't really do anything. The audio gets slightly louder, but it's not very discernible unless you're comparing the audio at 10% versus 60-70%. Anyone else having similar problems?

They changed the way volume adjustments work with Bluetooth devices.

For me, I noticed that I just need to control the volume on the device and not try to mess with it on the phone.

Thanks. It looks like this may indeed be a bug though, whether it's with the accessories or Android OS.
, there seems to be a bug in the feature's implementation on some Bluetooth accessories. What users are experiencing is an extremely loud volume, even at the lowest volume setting. With the slider moved all the way down, the volume remains too high, which makes the accessory unusable if you enjoy a more temperate sound. And remember, this is a unified volume setting, so even if you press the headset's Vol- button, nothing changes

When I paired with my speaker the music turned on so loud I nearly crapped my pants. Didn't even realize it was possible for the speaker to go that loud.

Not me. Everything working as designed. BT speaker paired just fine.
I'm having bluetooth issues - from day one and 6.01 doesn't help. My 5x often doesn't play through previously paired devices. It goes through the motions and shows a connection but no sound. I usually have to switch bluetooth off then back on again. Really annoying.
Hmmm, I haven't had a problem with the situation you described. I am currently having an issue over what audio is being pushed over bluetooth. In my car I am listening to some music via bluetooth, and I get a phone call during playback, I swipe right and answer the call, but I answered the call and my music resumes and I can't hear my call. Very odd but a consistent issue since the 6.0.1 update.
Since I accepted OREO onmy Nexus 5x, I also have BT issues both with my car multi-media and my earphones. I tried reboot the nexus and it did not help. I"ll try to repair the device.
