Volume being very low....

The volume on my g2x was awesome the first two days I had it. Now its very low even with the volume turned all the way up. I can barely hear it anymore. Any thoughts?

Turn on dts.

I noticed this as well. Sound on calls is very low, when I listen to Pandora it is very low. I used to have a Mytouch Slide and when I listened to Pandora in my car my car radio was at volume 14 and it was loud. With the G2x playing Pandora in my car my car radio is on like 24 to match the same loudness as my Mytouch Slide on volume 14. This is with the G2x volume on max. Really disappointing. I did see a thread somewhere on here about changing the volume through a hidden menu but the values were hexadecimals or something and I'm not sure what they should be tweaked to. If anyone has any insight please share!
The app listed below works great for sound through the headphone jack.

Does this work for bluetooth headsets as well? I noticed that was quite low as well with headset volume on max and phone on max.
I haven't tried it, but if I had to guess I'd say no.

DTS is only available for when your watching videos or music. Does not effect call volume or anything else.

I see. Thanks
I rebooted my phone and the volume seemed to fix it self. Also I had to pull the battery out after charging while on because it was just a black screen. Any thoughts?

It was the dts. It defaults to on. I'm pretty sure.

I had the exact same low volume problem. Removing the battery fixed the sound issue too.. I got a new phone anyway which also fixed my slow to connect problem.

Unfortunately, to answer a question earlier in the thread, it does not work with bluetooth; in fact, it mutes the sound completely over bluetooth when it is enabled.

So what do I tell them when I walk in the store? I have not had anymore problems since then. Is this a problem that will occur again? Just trying to see what are my options.

Yes. Tell the almost of the malfunction and say you just want a working phone. And you need the speaker to work. And you paid for a phone with a working speaker as advertised.

Faulty power button?

Here lately it seems that I have to hit the power button several times to power the screen back on after time goes to sleep. I noticed this after flashing the kg4 leak. Has anybody else had this issue or is it hardware related. It does seem that I have to hit it more and more as time goes on.

Is there a way too add screenshot to power menu?

I am on Rem's S3 ROM and I would like to add the screenshot option to the power menu. My google search has led me to complicated coding for the Xperia only pretty much. Is there a flashable zip somewhere that I am overlooking?

Well, hit the wrong button so enjoy your free thanks.
Most ROMs are Power+Vol-, but some like SkyICS are Power+Home key.
Install application from google play named as 'screenshot'. By using this just shake your mobile and get screemshot

Awesome; you can track how long you've walked throughout the day by the number of screenshots you have.

Back menu button cwm? (solved)

On gingerbread's cwm, the back menu button keeps getting disabled for no reason this is on the newer version that comes with bh's blast off kernel too. It forces me to do a battery pull pretty much every time I get into recovery unless I flash/wipe cache within about 15 to 20 seconds. Any fix for this?

It happens when you scroll through the menu. To re enable just hit the button (I believe) up a bunch of times.

You need to put and hold the phone in the mouth, then do a backflip, run 2 miles and drink soda, jump 100 times... oh, you dropped the phone? Start again!
J/k... Hit vol up and down at the same time.

Tried that but holding up and down doesnt work for me. The best thing is just tapping the vol up repeatedly.

To take a screen shot, go into settings - dislplay and there should be an option saying quick launch, tap that and select screen capture.
Hope i helped.

the quick launch setting was removed in the jelly bean update. so yea use power and volume to take snapshots you need to get the timing right as you need to hit both at the same time not one then the other.
