So two problems I have encountered with my Pro 7 and was wondering if they were common problems?
One of the problems is the speakerphone volume is hopeless. Not usable.
Other one is... Sometimes when I receive an MMS. Holding the phone normally, the picture is shown as if I am holding it long ways (landscape mode) and visa versa. I end up having to put my head on a 90 degree angle to really enjoy the full picture.

On the Arrive I felt the speakerphone was very loud and clear.
As for the MMS, I have also experienced the same glitch.
Well at least I am not the only one with both problems.
Hope the glitch will be fixed with No-Do
Stupid question: have you tried to press volume up button during the call? Maximum volume is 10. It works for me. I'm afraid that it won't be fixed by NoDo. I suppose that it's a hardware problem.

today i noticed an odd issue with the lights on the navicap on my TP, When the screen switches off the lights on the navicap stay illuminated (The home, back, answer and hangup buttons) the light round the dpad/scroll wheel dont light up tho, i dont know how long this has been going on though as i have only just noticed it
does anyone know why this mite happen or any ideas to solve it
cheers
I also can confirm this issue.
Seems to happen only when the light has been activated in landcape mode.
I can recreate this failure every time I reply to a SMS:
Slide open keyboard
Keyboard and navipad lights come on
Reply to sms
Press power button
...and tada! The light is stuck on
The light will go off if I press the center dpad button before I turn off the device, or if I turn back on the device and tap the button.
This problem has followed me through 3 ROMs: the stock ATT Fuze ROM, the new ATT ROM, and an older EnergyROM (8/11/09, not sure which version anymore).
I can also confirm that this problem exists across multiple phones running stock software. My first Fuze had this problem, my current Fuze has this problem, and my friend's Fuze does too. Very odd.
Not a showstopper, but I figure it's the only annoyance I really have to put up with day to day, now that I've got the phone configured the way I like it.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
I've really enjoyed my Skyrocket (switched from iPhone 4), but I have to say by far my biggest complaint since using this phone is trying to talk on the phone. I can't talk two minutes without suddenly hitting a bunch of keypad keys, making all kinds of beeping noises, which then typically mutes the line. I take the phone away from my face, wait for the screen to return from black (typically takes about 5 seconds), then I go back and unmute the phone and return to talking. Or it just puts them on hold. This is such a prolific problem that I find myself screaming profanities at my phone on a daily basis lol. It's really extremely frustrating. My google-fu has lead me to NO answers, which amazes me because I figure this HAS to be more common of a problem. I've tried holding my phone so many different ways - making sure my face is making contact with the whole phone and pressing hard, holding just the top half to my ear and holding lightly, attempting to make no contact at all - no matter what I try, I still hit this problem an unfortunate number of times per conversation. Is there no app in the market that tries to improve face-touch recognition or anything like that?
When you make the call push the power button to lock it

Oh. See, on the iPhone, that ends the call, so I didn't think of that. Thanks!

There is a setting to make the power button end the call as well
shouldn't his proximity sensor kick in? When i make a phone call, as soon as i put the phone to my face the screen shuts off

Yeah that works fine on mine. He may have disabled the sensor in settings, or it wasn't on by default for some reason
Settings/Call/Turn on Proximity Sensor.
If this is checked off your screen should go dark when you put your face up to it (and no buttons getting pushed...)
Some kind of weird problem here; everytime i make a call and want to hold my phone to my ear the following happens:
- My screen turns to black (normal behaviour)
- Simultaneously my ear speaker mutes for as long the screen is black
- My screen almost instantly turns on again, turning on my ear speaker too
- This continues to happen as long as i hold my phone to my ear, so my ear speaker goes on-off-on-off-on-off, i cannot make a conversation like this.
The strange thing is, when i remove the phone from my ear, preventing the proximity sensor to see my face and to black the screen, nothing happens and the ear speaker keeps on (so is the screen).
Any idea how this could be caused? When i opened my phone recently, i noticed that there is a ribbon cable damaged (the ear speaker one, i thought it was the (-) side, the (+) is still connected).
Could this be the reason of my ear speaker simultaneously muting when the screen is turning to black? I don't see the relation to those two things happening.
Thanks!
have the same problem with mine, anyone has any ideas?
Same here
I am having this same issue.
It started all of a sudden around June 28th. I submitted a bug report to google approximately two weeks ago and haven't heard anything back. Hopefully, the Jelly Bean update will fix this issue if it isn't corrected sooner.
For now, I just hold the phone horizontally with the screen facing upwards to prevent the screen from turning off and killing the audio.
Official Bug Report
Since I am still experiencing this issue I have posted the issue on Google's Android support. If you are also experiencing this problem please go here <code(dot)google(dot)com/p/android/issues/detail?id=36595>, leave a comment, and follow along as we hope to get this solved.
Hi,
I've had my phone for only a few months, but now the Volume Up button is sticking.
It stays pushed in until I press Volume Down. This causes the volume to shoot right up to High if I only want to change it small.
Has anyone had this, and can it be fixed?
Thanks,
E
Is it a hardware or software issue?! I didn't understand completely
Hardware issue from what i can read. Well, i think that if you know FOR SURE that your volume button didn't broke for an impact, like a drop for example, you could try one of those spray cans of compressed air that are commonly used to clean keyboards, PC's interiors or other hardware stuff that could suffer due to dusts intrusions between components, like particles of dust that could prevent a sensor to detect a pression on the button (only an example). But if you think that the "support" that stays between the volume up and the internal hardware is broken, it's a different case since that you should open the phone and work on that, maybe replacing the volume button. When you push it, you still hear something like a "click" or not? If yes, the support could still be ok and so it'll be easier to fix, compared to a definitely broke button
Then, send it tl center service OP!

Its hardware issue.
Better to send to service care.
Dont unzip the phone at your own ,i will costs the phone.
I find myself in a situation where I receive an incoming call that I am neither willing to accept nor decline. In such instances, I attempt to turn off the display by pressing the power button. However, the display reactivates almost instantly. Other phone models allow the user to turn off the display by pressing the power button, and the display remains off until the user presses the power button again
Ah yes, the old problem of if you decline it, then they know you declined it because it doesn't ring the right number of times. Trying to pretend to your wife that you're driving when you're doing something you shouldn't be doing?
Just kidding, but
There's no way to change that behavior.

That's the most simplest thing.... Google should have this ages ago..... Pity... Except the camera.... Everything on P7P is just average. Including performance, battery life......
But it's excellent heating device....
