So out of no where my phone has just been lowering randomly every 5 to 10 mins and it's definitely not a faulty volume button it sets it to an exact level every single time. Also when connected to Bluetooth in my car instead of lowering volume it changes to only the left channel speakers working till I reset Bluetooth. So idk how to fix this
Some crazy app?

How Do I Stop Apps From Lowering The Volume (Android)?
Is the volume of your Android device automatically lowering down due to app notifications? A simple way to solve this problem is to enable the "Do not Disturb" mode on your Android: go to Settings

How to Control Which Apps Open on Android Startup - DroidViews
Couldn't help but install a handful of apps that you swore you'd use? We're all guilty of this at some point. We download application after application with the intention of using them every day -- fitness apps, language learning tools, etc. -- and maybe use them twice a month. You would...

Obviously, these aren't settings you want to keep enabled, but they may tell you more about the problem.
Ultimately, you'll have to find the app and deal with it (if I'm right that it is an app).

Sometimes I accidently turn ringer volume down low (not mute) and miss an important call.
I’ve found apps such as Ringer Volume (Android-Lab) to reset it at given times, however they all wants ‘full Internet access’ don’t know if I like that with an app that will be constantly running and with my limited data allowance?
Another option would be a taskbar icon showing my volume level; however I cannot find any such widget.
It’s not mute that give me the problem it’s when I decrease the Ring Volume sometimes by accident when holding my Desire HD, with CyanogenMod 7.
Anyone got any suggestions on this?
there's an app called Settings Profile that u can set rules to do stuff, so u can set a rule to keep invoking a certain profile at whatever interval you want. The Lite version can only set 1 rule so I am not sure if that's good enough for you or not.
Hi Lukesky, thanks for taking the time to help.

I think I had looked at Setting Profiles before but just had another look and my concern with it is that it takes Full Internet Access, perhaps I’m being paranoid but I only have 20Mb of data per day and then the price per Mb goes up dramatically, let alone when I’m roaming, OK I know I could turn Data off if I wanted. So do you think the Lite App will be using data via its internet access?
here u go buddy...its simple quick and fast.... i use it all the time and place as widget
Thanks Lalitehgal, I appreciate your help however unless I’m mistaken this widget has no option for an auto timed volume increase, and my problem is I sometimes do not realize I have decreased the volume while holding the phone.
@richardsoffice: in my opinion you should definitely not be required to adjust ringtone or notification volume manually. Because once - in office - you are satisfied, but then - on the street - you just don't hear anything. The phone should adjust the ringtone volume automatically based on ambient noise and phone position (pocket/out of pocket/table/...). Check out an app called IntelliRing.
Manually adjusting ringtone volume does not do any harm if your ringtone volume is managed by IntelliRing. So you can accidentally adjust volume as you want
Hello,
I have Gnex GSM version, bought from Amazon.de.
I have the latest official firmware 4.0.2, received it promptly.
Today i was at the hospital, to see a person dear to me, and i put the phone on silent. The phone would increase the volume by itself.
It did not go crazy or sumth, however it would not stay silent.
I tried turning off the data network (3g/2g) as the [repeating] change between all data speeds seemed to trigger it (though i cannot tell for sure).
This did not fix things.
What eventually SEEM to have fixed the problem was quiting from the app i have running called LLama (this is an app which according to your location/signal [NOT GPS] performs certain actions and events such as profile changes.).
Conclusion? is this the volume bug? why is it still there if that is the case?!
I am annoyed and looking for help as i know there are a lot of experts here.
Thanks
Regards,
Llama has an option to disable volume buttons, which is useful to prevent profile changes when you press a volume button. You can manually choose another profile (silent) or disable that feature in Llama settings - Disable volume buttons.
Hey,
I upgraded my device from a Nexus 5. In my Nexus 5 I had an option in the Settings to create a schedule for silent times (or priority only). Before I did the switch, I had a setting on to put the device on silent mode at 21:30. Now, in my OnePlus3, I notice that it also goes silent at 21:30 every day (it probably automatically migrated this setting along with the other settings when I first set up the device). But in the OnePlus 3 I no longer have a setting to disable this schedule... This is extremely annoying, because when the device goes into Silent mode I can't even turn up the volume with the volume rocker, I have to physically push the alert slider to "silent" mode and then back to "all notifications" mode.
The device is not rooted and I'd much rather keep it this way if I can.
I hate the fact that there something going on that I can't switch off...
Ideas? Tips? any thoughts will be highly appreciated.
Several people have reported this problem and I have it as well. You are correct that it comes from transferring the settings from your previous phone to the OP3 which has no way to control do not disturb settings through software. None of the suggested fixes have worked for me. My hope was that the new OTA, which apparently had notification fixes would stop it, but it did not. The only thing that has been reported as working all the time is wiping the phone entirely and setting it up as new without transferring your old settings. If you still have your old phone, you could change the settings on it to remove all dnd settings, use it for a bit so that it backs up and then try setting up your OP3 again. I plan on doing that or starting new and fresh later this week.
Edit:
Here's the other thread on this. Looks like the problem exists for people who did clean installs as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/help/disturb-settings-t3400979
Had this problem, too. I did transfer the settings from my old phone, but I had no DND settings active on this device (in fact I never ever used DND). The only way to get out of this silence loop was to restart the phone and set the slider to priority and back to all.

That didn't fix it, the behavior returned after a while.
Apparently this is a big issue:

I have changed my preferences on settings>Notifications >watsapp to high importance with sound so that I no longer receive a message preview in a balloon. It works all day however every morning wake up to it having reset itself to urgent which then allows pop up messageson screen.
How can I save these settings without them having being reset everyday. Many thanks
Interesting, I'm actually finding a few things that aren't saving persistently, though I thought they were related to Bluetooth or my car.
Specifically, my car (2017 Challenger with Uconnect) asks about message permissions almost every time it connects, and smartlock asks me if I want to save the device each time. Additionally, I notice the screen timeout settings default back to 15 seconds when I was set at 1 minute.
I'm also plugged into Android Auto when this is happening. So there's a lot of variables. Just posting here so we can see if others have common issues.

Hi there
Sometimes when I receive an email the notification will not show up on the phone, that is no sound and no led notification.
However as soon as I press the power button or unlock the screen the notification will pop up.
It is almost as if the device goes to sleep state when screen is turned off.
The emails that I miss at times due to this problem are time sensitive and really important for my work.
Such delays are at times resulting in direct monetary loss.
This was never an issue on my Galaxy Note 3 from which I have upgraded.
Can anyone of you guide and assist me as to which settings need to be changed to get it to work properly.
Many thanks for your time.
I have a simmilar issue here. Some notifications show up normally, like mail and facebook, but other apps only show notifications if i have they are opened.
It's like the system is forcing close those apps.

Still haven't found any solution.
Things I have tried :
1. Going to Power Master > Battery Mode > Balance
Thinking that in other modes it would kill background apps to save power.
2. Went to Power Master > Autostart Manager > Added apps I need notifications to start on system startup.
Apart from the mentioned problem, I see another one.
I opened What's app notification setting and turned Group Notifications off and Message notifications are set to show silently and minimize.
However the app itself changes the setting and forces messages on screen by itself over riding my changes. Have been happening since a long time now no matter how many times I change the settings.
Update if you can find any resolution.
