Unexplained volume drop to zero - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

This is the kinda &@#^%$# that makes me want to go back to the simplest freaking phone I can find. I really can't stand this [email protected]#$!!!
I haven't touched my phone all night. Using the HTC Home plugin, as I always do, I had the setting on "Ringtone: Ring-Standard". The only time I change it from this setting is at work, I set it to vibrate, and before I go to bed, I set it to silent. In the morning, I set it back to vibrate and go to work and repeat the cycle.
The phone sat on the kitchen counter all evening while I made dinner. I didn't TOUCH the volume setting, yet I still missed an important phone call because the ringer inexplicably set itself to silent. Not the silent setting, mind you... but just the ringer itself.
WHY!!?????

I've had this problem too a few times.
Perhaps I should look into it a bit more, because missing phone calls isn't exactly what I want...
Perhaps it has something to do with the scroll-wheel. Or perhaps when a button is pressed, it mutes the sound.
I'll post my findings when I know what causes this.

Well, it's happened three times now. I just check every few hours now. Can't find a reason why it might be happening, but in defense of WM6 fancy new phones, it's only happened since switching to the Dutty #7.
I'll keep my eyes open. Maybe we'll figure it out.

I've had this as well. I get it about once every 5 times I switch from vibrate to non-vibrate using a profile switcher.
It is quite annoying. I find myself checking the volume everytime I switch profiles back to making sound.
I had it on the stock ROM as well.

Same problem here too!!

No solution here but another "me too". I use the Comm Manager ("Kaiser.CommManager.10Button.3GCAB.cab") to switch between Vibrate and Ring and every once in a while I get this same behavior.
AT&T Tilt
Dutty's No. 7b
Hope we can find a fix for this...

I have this problem too from time to time. I have a HTC Tytn II and am still on the stock ROM. It's probably a bug in the HTC Home audio profile app, because I do use it to switch between vibrate and normal modes.

I've also had exactly the same problem. I can't replicate it 100%, at the moment it does seem to be random, but I have noticed it particularly when changing from vibrate to normal ring using the HTC today screen plugin. I've missed a couple of calls before I got wise to this. I check the volume icon at the top now but agree it's a pain.

I will confirm that this seems to be related to running HTC Home. I removed it a few weeks ago and have been using SPB Pocket Plus and SPB Time for my home screen plugins.
I use the comm manager to now switch from Vibrate to Ringer and have not had this issue yet.
Edit - I use the 6 button comm manager and Custel 2.1 rom.

Now that you mention it, I've been using a profiles program too recently and have not experienced the dropdown in volume anymore.
We're still not sure, but perhaps you're pointing in the right direction...

I had this problem with original ROM. But not with dutty's roms.

This is also happening to me with botm Dutty's 3/08 and 3/27 roms.
The other day I was just sitting and looking at my phone and the ringer icon changed to silent right in front of me!
I'm going to try using the comm manager to change rings, and see if it happens again.

I'm using Q-Mobile 1.2 now. It doesn't happen any more.
I only had the problem with Dutty ROMs....

I still got the HTC initial ROM and I also experience this problem...

Mine does the same
I have the same problem. I use HTC home to set the profile to vibrate. I do use a bluetooth headset and I've noticed many times after hanging up that the profile has changed to silent (both volumes are at 0).

Ok, i had this problem with Dutty's Rom, but since i start using wisbar and its profile swithing feature, i've never seen it again...

It seems that this relates with the problem of during calls the other end user complains for low volume. It seems that the mic automatically lowers sound and most probably is a hardware problem. I have sent mine for a mic replacement. I will inform you as soon as i get it back.

I'm able to reproduce the problem with Dutty's WM6.1 and Bluetooth hands-free. Having mobile set to vibrate (using HTC Home) I connect the hands-free (Parrot) and make a phone call. After hanging up the mobile switches to ringing with zero volume.
Any connection to BTAudioToggle?

I also have problems when using bluetooth, it seems like sometimes your problem happens to mine and others it doesn't.

I have had this problem for a long time using dutty's rom also and bt headset. I think it has something to do with voice command maybe i am not sure. I have HTC home disabled i just use spb pocket plus and spb mobile shell. And i also sometimes loose sound completely due to this switching and i have to soft reset my phone to get it back. I have tried different radios but the same happens.

Kaiser Radios for volume?

I am using Radio 1.65.20.29 with L26 Kaiser Diamond v3 (I probably should upgrade to v6 soon, but all of the roms are just excellent)...my problem is not with battery life or gps or anything like that...all of that is fantastic. My problem is that the phone volume is just too low...even at max volume.
I went to another kaiser radio thread...but it was dead apparently -_- (I didn't even see that part)? Because even though I do love the battery life, I can't deal with such a quiet phone.
Are there comparisons of roms by volume, instead of battery life, etc.,? Or is there a .cab to boost volume?
im pretty sure you can set the volume higher with shaps advanced config
sorry i checked and no dice but i know theres a reg edit for the max volume give that a search
I don't see anything for incall incoming volume. There's changes for bluetooth, outgoing, speakerphone, etc.,
the reg edit doesn't actually do anything, if you click the volume low on your phone and then reg edit it to be higher, the next time you look at the volume it will be higher, there is a max value of 5(set it from 0-5) and other than that it doesn't actually do anything. i also have been looking for a way to make the phone louder so if you happen to fiind one post the results. in the mean time i got a ROM with VC and a bluetooth headset so it rings in my ear and i never miss a call
I agree, all the threads with registry edits I've seen don't do anything. I already have volume at max...but the max isn't high enough.
Try radio 1.58.25.17
This radio seems to give me great in call volume.
Tested it with ShogunMark Death v3.5 ROM
just from calling my voicemail, it seems that there's not any noticeable increase...but I guess I'll just have to find out what it really can do when my brother calls me next.

1) The stuff in the link does nothing; adding a new HKLM\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN folder and the requisite entries from that topic do nothing. Furthermore, every other setting listed in that particular topic, whether already available in the registry or added, does nothing.
2) Changing HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring:InitVol does nothing.
3) THE Q-TIP DOESN'T WORK?! WHERE'S OUR GOD NOW?!?!
I really want to ask if you soft reseted But I wount.. Sec I`ll see if I can digg up some more on this. I had some radios with low sound, just dont remember wich it where atm. I am on Neon and that is one is working real good for me on all aspects exept little hard on the battery. Perhaps a full sprite and reflash to another rom could be youre way? A little tip, wait for L26 v.7. The sip is a pain in the rear on V.6.
of course, except it wouldn't let me soft reset for the qtip.
so...for roms, I want to stick with the l26, but I have two options even if I don't count v6...I could go to v4 or v5 or just wait completely for v7 (although I doubt laurentius will take out the diamond keyboard by then)
I've already changed to the neon as per AllTheWay's advice, and although it does lead to better reception, it has no noticeable impact on sound.

Hmm, tricky one.. Have you tried a equalizer? And was it that from fresh install, meaning its not a app. issue or something? But I suspect it could be rom issue for you since other radio has been tested. So, if reghack doesnt work, neither its a app issue, and changing radio didnt solve it it gotta be the rom.
Have you tried adjusting the WOW HD app in Settings -> System ?
Its pretty awesome at tweaking the sound. My phone has never been so loud!

1st link: I did
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Volume
add: DWord value name = volume
value data = 4294967295then press power (sleep) wait 10 sec and press power again.
with no effect. This does GREAT stuff to all volume EXCEPT for call volume (e.g., now my rings, system noises, etc., are nice and annoying...but I didn't have a problem with them in the first place.)
Reading further, I noticed that the setacoustic.exe solution requires rom cooking, so I'll have to try to later when I have time to tinker like that.
2nd link: Once again, adding AUDIOGAIN or even importing them from an established download file and then adding them in Total Commander, then softreseting after that, doesn't help.
3rd link: the link to post 244 of the other topic, and its advice to change attenuation, does not do anything for incall volume.
I haven't tried an equalizer.

I don't have the WOW HD app in Settings -> System. Does this affect call-volume? The rest of my phone is actually loud enough, and while a few of these registry hacks works for various other aspects of the phone (e.g., ringtones, system sounds)...those aren't what I want louder. I just want to be able to hear the people I'm talking to when I call.
Toss it in the river... I will keep an eye for a fix as it seems like there is no easy find on this issue. Must be a rom-device hate afair or something.
I briefly tried L26 v7 with 1.58.25.17, but to no effect. Since I had other problems with v7 independent of the sound issue, I moved back to v3.
Hahaha!!!

in Advance Schaps Config goto "Bluetooth" and configure your "BITPOOL" settings to a higher level.

OldSAP Speakerphone

On my HTC P3300 Artemis I had this great software.
OldSAP Speakerphone.
* Auto answer function
* Auto speakerphone to handsfree
I tried it on my MDA V aka Diamond2 but it does not work.
When recieving a cal, or calling somebody, the speakerphone does not switch to handsfree mode automaticly.
Does anybody knows the answer on this?
Go to "Settings" -> Personal -> Phone -> more
There you can switch on "auto receive" or whatever it's called on a WWE Rom^^ Don't know if the speaker is turned on too... never tested it

Phone always in handsfree eccept when I turn it off..
Somebody PLZ
would be fantastic for me too
for speaker
what about the cab: Touch_InCall_Screen_Tweak v1.1.1
i use it and i setted the ""speaker when in hand"". in short everytime i have the ((phone not vertical) and (with light sensor sensing light)) it turns on the speaker.

I had the same program on my HTC P3300 and it worked great.
Only, when trying it on my new Diamond2 device, this software did not work anymore, even when reading the instructions you mentioned.
After installing the software all seems fine.
When incomming voice message comes the speaker is set to handsfree.
BUT, when sliding the slider to answer call position the speaker is set to off, automaticlly
Maybee OldSAP has an answer?
!!!! HELP !!!!
Anybody PLZ.....

Seems these people have already, partially, the sollution.
But I do not need all these fancy things.
Only the selection to turn the speakerphone, automaticly, ON or OFF during in or outgoing calls is enough.
umm, you do know that you just need to press the receiver button during the call to put it on speakerphone, don't you?

Luckely I'm not that Stupid.
The thing is that during driving in a car I would like the phone, like OldSap already had, to answer automaticly and in speaker mode so you do NOT have to push the recieve button for app. 2 seconds.
Try this small piece of software I wrote, it works fine on my Topaz. It only answers calls though and puts them on speakerphone. Start "Answer4u" from programs folder, then wait for a call or click on "Switch off" Button to temporarily disable auto-answering the calls..
Don't say anything about the UI, I wrote this in a few minutes
Let me know...

Just tried it and the program now work partially.
* When I call someone the speaker function works perfect.
* When I recieve a phonecall the speaker is switch one for about 0.5 seconds and then automaticly is switched off again.
If this last bug can be solved a lot of people will be very happy, for sure I will be.!!!!
same for me.
TinTin app works perfectly, the only thing I miss is the option to set the delay before the call is answered. Now the call is answeed immediately and you have no chance to notice whoi is the caller. Otherwise it would be just perfect.

[Q] Jawbone Prime & Sensation 4G problems

I had no problem pairing my Jawbone Prime bluetooth headset with my old Nokia 5800. All the functions worked perfectly.
Since I moved to HTC Sensation 4G, I noticed these problems:
1. Every time I disconnect & reconnect the BT, the volume goes to minimum. It doesn't keep the previous volume setting.
2. When I play a music/video, the sound goes through phone speaker right away. I couldn't find the setting to make it goes to my BT instead.
3. The voice dial feature from BT is no longer available. Is it because now they use Google voice search? This is inconvenient because before I can activate voice dial just by holding my Jawbone's volume button. Now I have to get my phone and unlock screen, input security code, press voice search..etc.
Is anyone having similar problems or other problems?
If yes, is there a way to fix these?
Thank you,

I have a Jawbone 2 so it's not quite the same I guess but I'll try to answer some of it...
1) I don't have this problem. keeps my volume setting.
2) same issue. I also have this problem with turn by turn navigation. it goes to my speaker on the phone even though I have the bluetooth setup.
I've read other people with different headsets working fine, though in nav, it cuts off first part of the direction... so I guess it's a blessing in disguise?
anyway, I'm beginning to think it's a Jawbone issue?
3) there is a work around this...
http://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/HTC-SENSATION-4G/Bluetooh-Voice-Dialing-FIX/m-p/894213#M4273
only thing is you need to find the apk for choice dialer as it's not available for our phone on the market...
kind of a pain but it works.
anyway, hope that helps you out a little.

As the issue no.1, finally I got it fixed by disconnecting the Jawbone (unpair from phone) and pair it back. Apparently that solve the volume issue.
For No.2, I called Jawbone and they don't know what to do either. I'm going to try another BT from Jabra and see if the problem persist. If not that means something is wrong with Jawbone.
Thanks for the info for issue no.3
Yes, it seems I need to find out where that apk for Choice Dialer. It's not in android market yet.

I just checked the specs of the jawbone prime at jawbones website. You need to have A2DP ( Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) feature on your earpiece in order to listen to music/tv/gps navigation (anything other than phone calls), and the prime does not have that feature. If you were getting media through your nokia wiith the prime then consider yourself lucky lol, you shouldn't have been able to. Just make sure your next BT has A2DP and you're all set. They do make apps that will send media through youre BT but the sound quality is pretty poor IMO. Search Bluetooth in the market if you want to try one.

[Q] how do I stop it to vibrate when calling

I searched in the forum but I didn't find the answer,
well I have a nexus S with CM nightlies 512, but when I used the CM 7.0.2 it did the same I don't remenber if the stock did that.
What happen is the when I make a call everytime my face or my fingers touch the screen it vibrates and I freaking hate it, because I keep switching sides when talking or simply move the phone away and then it vibrates.
I tryed turning the touch feedback in the call app and it didnt work, then I turned all the vibrations in the sound settings, but then when I click in the notification buttons they don't vibrate either(its weird).
Is there a way to make it stop vibrating during a call but still make the notification buttons vibrate?
thanks
have you checked your call settings? not under cm settings. maybe its something in there..
Haptic feedback perhaps? Options in Settings>>Sound and in the dialer under Preferences.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
alright, but if I go into the settings and turn the Haptic feedback off, the notification buttons won't vibrate either and that doesnt fell good, and if I turn the Haptic feedback on the call app it just wont work, I think it might be an issue of the rom idk
there are 3 different places you can find haptic or vibrate during call setting.. 3 or 4.. depends on mod i guess.
1. preferences in dialer. the 1 u been messing with
2. settings->sound
3. settings->call ... different than dialer preferences
4. i use go sms.. there is an option there for vibrate during call for texts..
i dunno.. thats all i can think of dude.
I have tried all the dialer prefs, sound settings, call settings, all haptic places I can find, and still I get 4 vibrates during dialing, after pick up I get a few, and at hangup a couple more. In addition, during the call, anytime I move the phone it does two vibrates. I tried a few dummy calls to my home voicemail, and every time I shake the phone a little (during the call) it vibrates twice. My friends are also massively annoyed by the noise, which makes me boil over. Its been doing this with every rom I've run in the past month or so. It never had this problem in the past. So may it be a bug in one of my updated apps, or perhaps in cyanogen 7?
Eris with Macrom glass 3 1.8. Also happened with various GSB roms too- but only in the recent month or two. HELP

screen turning on in my pocket

Ok this is starting to piss me off and no matter what I try nothing works. I keep pocket texting people when it's in my pocket because the screen comes on when I get a text. This just started a few days ago and I'm reaching the point where I think my sensor is bad. Basically when it's in my pocket and I get a text that damn pop-up comes up and turns my screen on and then "bdbsuchdvfufhdvshdhfhdhfh"
Yeah if anyone can help that'd be great. I've turned everything off and don't use aod
Edit. I found out how to get the pop-up to turn off. But the screen still comes on

I'll try that out. It seems to only come on when I get a notification though. It's definitely not my sensor though I fig that much out

Ok I got it. It was a mix between greenify and my lock widget. I took the lock wigget off and set up greenify deferent and it's all good now.
And as far as the home button the only Sensitivity I found was the haptic feedback. Don't know if that's what you were talking about

i am having the same problem. Phone is unlocking in my pocket all the time for all sorts of reasons - not just notifications. I have the don't turn on if in a dark place like pockets setting to on, have tried locking the screen whenever i push power button, and several other things, but i am butt dialing, texting, deleting and everything else. Very frustrating. Serious problem.
Plus, when i have the phone in my pocket and then call someone from bluetooth headset, it turns on in my pocket, hangs up on them, or turns off bluetooth, or mutes them, etc. Again, wow, very serious, bad problem. How can i get this to stop?
I don't have greenify, and would prefer to not install it.
Is this happening to anybody else? Or has anybody found a solution? I've enabled / disabled any setting that has anything to do with turning on in pocket, proximity, gestures, smart lock etc and the phone is constantly turning on in my pocket and doing crazy things. Today, for example, the phone dialed my wife, paused / played music four times, changed play lists, tried to send a text to a relative, tried to make an emergency call, and changed some settings. This is making me absolutely nuts. It seems as though when a notification turns the screen on, the phone rubs in my pocket and creates "touches" that open apps and trigger events. This NEVER happens when the phone is sitting beside me, only when it is in my pocket. Something is really weird with the proximity sensor in this phone. BTW, I'm using the S8+.
^ Exact same problem with mine in the pocket. I wish functions​ like the bixby button would disable itself automatically in this situation.
Imagine you being seated in a library and your phone from nowhere start playing a loud music...
That's need to be fixed.
Same here. I've sent various text and calls. Even accepted calls and other stuff while in my pocket. Wonder if it's a bug in a recent update

Have any of you tried this setting in accessibility? Easy screen on was my issue.
Happens to me all the time as well. I have the "keep screen turned off" slider on and the "easy screen turn on" slider off. This is a bad situation. Annoying and, at times, embarrassing. Needs to be fixed!!!
I've been having a similar issue with an S8 to a degree. A text notification would turn display on and worst for me was the phone would ring but answer itself in the pocket or as I moved it pulling it out of pocket. I don't know why but seemed to be worse with certain themes off the theme store. I've noticed that the issue went away when using the default Samsung theme or the 'high_contrast_theme' by Samsung of the few I've tried.
Same here. I had an S7 today did it too. Gotta be a bad sensor or something.
If anyone here uses Textra this setting could help. It was another that was causing my issue. It's been awhile since it has turned on in my pocket but it still happens sometimes. Mostly it brings up my camera.

This happens on my S8+ frequently it's new with only factory apps and limited changes to default settings. I just called 911 while in my pocket and had to explain my self to am angry dispatcher. Never had this problem with any other galaxy phone.
Thx
