Hi to All,
Before using my headset to listen to music I set the Ringer volume at maximum.
But the moment I touch the Volume rocker switch to change the media volume (during music play) the Ringer Volume automatically reduces and lowers to match the media volume.
After this has happened if a call comes in the only way I know is that the music mutes but I hear no ring tone. If I am lucky and in a very quiet environment I can just barely hear the ringtone in the background.
Is anyone else having this problem - and even better is there a solution?
I have the same concern, but it seems no one has any good answer.
in my case, I have this problem after I migrated to a ICS ROM. I have this problem both in stock and other custom ROMs.
I used audio concert app while in GB to have different volume profiles for with/without headset connected, and from what I can remember, I could hear the ringtone and notification sounds loud and clear.
On ICS, even if I set ringtone volume at MAX with headset connected, the ringtone is inaudible. The only way to notice an incoming call or sms is by music being muted. For ringtone, it is longer and so more noticeable, but for sms, it often goes unnoticed...

Hi everybody
I'm having problem with my t-mobile pulse (huawei u8220) with android 2.1.
When someone is calling me (the phone is ringing), i hear music and after 2-3 seconds sound is very very quiet and have distortion. This is not always, sometimes ringing is normal (so i think this isn't hardware problem, but software problem). The vibrations works well.
When i'm listening music or setting the ringtone sound works well.
Any ideas or something?

I have the same problem with my Pulse. I recently updated to Android 2.1 and noticed the ringtone problem. I have the same symptoms as you, distortion and low sound quality when the sound is ringing. I even tried putting external mp3 file, but the problem occured again.
Pozdrav.
Is there a way? There are apps that can do this but the optimus 3d override their settings and have the loud click sound again.
I've noticed this from time to time... the keyboard volume is linked to media volume. Sometimes i just pull down the notification area, play music, adjust media volume, stop music. voila
Hi everyone...
I just got a problem since updating to 4.4.4, and after searching for several days, I still can't get the workaround.
So, I'm using a jabra bluetooth speaker.
When I'm at 4.4.2, the media sound on the bluetooth speaker and the phone is unlinked. So, usually I set the phone media volume at around medium, and then using bluetooth speaker, I can go to near unheard, or loud enough. Even, if I want, I can completely turn off the audio by minimizing both the bluetooth speaker sound and the phone media.
But, since I upgraded to 4.4.4, both device media volume are linked. So, if I press volume up on my speaker, my phone audio goes up as well. And, the main problem is, even the lowest sound (it reached 0 on the phone media volume), the sound still TOO LOUD for me.
Is there any fix? Besides downgrading, if possible.
Not sure I understood how it works with your BT speaker but with my car BT handsfree I just set the volume from the phone and only the BT volume gets changed (the volume slider shows the BT icon). Well, or at least I didn't bother to check the media volume. But that one is sure disconnect in 4.4.4 from the system/notification/ring volumes which are all connected. And the voice call volume doesn't get modified either.
I have a problem with speaker, when receiving a call the volume for ringtone is too low, the speakerphone is also low, but to set the volume for calls, it is normal, high volume
Speakerphone is terrible and only the bottom speaker works when I enable speakerphone.
Enable ClearAudio+, if you didn't.
I have it enabled but I don't think it works with speakerphone. As far as I know it;s only for music and videos
Anyone else noticed that the volume of the ringtones on this phone are mixed at a really high volume/decibel level? I turned the volumes all down to 1 tick above silent, and they're all still pretty loud. I can't seem to tell if its the phones speakers not having a quieter setting, or the notification sound mixes, being maxed out. I transferred the Neon alarm sound over from my Nexus 4, and that seemed to be able to be a little quieter. But to compare, the alarm volume for that sound on the Idol 3 was set to 1 tick above silent and was the same volume it seemed as my Nexus 4 on the same sound file at about 70%
Same here. For me especially the alarm volume is way too loud for early mornings where I don't want to wake up everyone in the house.
Same thing
Same thing here. I had before a Galaxy S4 with it was more easy to manage volume for all individuals event (alarm, notification, ring tone, music) now with me idol3 5.5 I only have 1 slider to control all
I have root my phone so if anyone have a solution I will take it.
You could use something like Tasker, Llama, or AutomateIt, among others, to turn the volume off altogether during the hours where it's a problem in your home. For example, you could set it to be silent from 10 pm to 9 am, but at whatever volume you prefer during the rest of the hours. That wouldn't address the issue where you feel like you can't get a low volume that you'd prefer, but it would save you from having to turn the volume all the way down, then back up again every day.
There are some ROMs that have more sophisticated sound mixers than stock Android provides. So maybe something along those lines might work. There's an audio driver/app called Viper that has a topic somewhere on XDA. Whether or not it would work well on this phone, I have no idea.
Idol 3 loud af
Yeah same problem guys. I got a solution for you. Edit the ringtones or notifications with sound editing software. You can lower the volume of the ringtone file and that should make it lower sounding.
