Mute Help - T-Mobile LG G2x

Help. I am using this ohone running the most recent AOSP ICS EaglesBlood rom. When lowering the volume on my phone, it eventually goes into vibrate-only mode. After this, if I press the volume button down again, it goes into a mute mode. In this mode, no sound is played, obviously, but it also doesn't vibrate. It does this in my pocket, and I am missing many important calls. I have searched the settings and found no way to disable this mode. Any way to get rid of this.

[Q] Ringer and Notifications volume goes down by itself

Hey,
I started having this problem after I flashed CM 7.0.3.
Each time the screen is locked the Ringer and Notifications volume goes down.
I checked all system settings, turned off the quiet hours setting, nothing helps.
I hope some of you guys know how to overcome this problem.
So help please!

[Q] call volume issue

with any call i get, the volume is really loud. ive used my volume button to set it to the lowest setting and the person is still loud enough to hear if im holding the phone a couple of inches away from my ear. am i the only one experiencing this issue, and if not how do i remedy this issue? thanks for any help you can give. btw im running 7.1.0.1, stock cm kernel, and installed it through cwm.
Are you suggesting the speaker comes on automatically when you receive a call?
if its what i have, no. when i recieve a call, the in call volume is set to max, regardless of what the actual volume setting is. it is quite deafening. lol. anyways, when i use the volume rocker, the volume will still change, but then the next call will have the same issue. its as if the phone automatically resets the volume to max somehow. any help would be appreciated. thanks!

yeah, thats the same issue that i have been having. the closest thing i have found to a fix is to hit the volume up then volume down, then the volume will go down. but that has to be done on every call. i was/am hoping there will be a fix for this that will keep it down permanently

[Q] notification volume issue

there seems to be a problem with the notification volume of my sidekick.
After i hang up a phone call each time, the notification volume turns down to a very low level itself, even without a sign. this is annoying after i found this issue, and i have to turn it up again after each call to avoid missing sms.
Does anyone have any idea about that? my sidekick is running an unrooted stock rom (KJ2).

Forced silent mode

No matter what I try, the ringtone keeps defaulting to silent mode. Whether using the volume rocker or through the settings menu, it may show a ringtone volume or vibrate for a second, but then it reverts back to silent mode. Same deal after restarting. Phone is unrooted. Any ideas how to fix it or whats going on?

Bump.
Having same problem. If I use shortcut switches or apps to change the ringer volume, I can't seem to get silent - I have to go into settings and switch it to vibrate from there. Then vibrate will work awhile but after some time I'll automatically switch to silent (the icon in the notification bar changes with this).
Pretty sure it can't be a hardware issue, since it does vibrate when I set it to. But I can't figure out why it keeps reverting to silent mode on its own.
Any ideas? It's a new One S, unrooted. Haven't messed with it in any way besides choosing to use a Launcher. And it's been annoying not being able to get notifications when I need the phone on silent.

Recommend sending it to your carrier or to HTC.
Sent from my locked, tampered ville
Do you have any sound schedulers running that would force it to silent at a certain time?

Sent HTC an email asking about it over the weekend, they replied this morning and suggested I boot into recovery and wipe the cache partition.
Looks like it worked! I can now toggle volume/silent/vibrate using the volume rocker, or toggle apps, without having to go into settings - plus, it doesn't seem to automatically switch back to silent mode now.
I'll probably keep an eye on it for a day or two just to be sure, cos the time periods between reverting to silent mode weren't consistent - but it looks promising
Honestly dunno why I didn't think of trying a wipe in the first place
Anyway here are the instructions they sent:
1. Turn the phone off (hold the Power key on devices with sealed battery)
2. Press and hold the Power key and Volume Down key to boot into Bootloader mode.
3. Press Volume down to highlight Recovery, then press the Power key
4. When the Black recovery screen appears, press Volume Up and Power at the same time to show the menu.
5. Press Volume down to highlight Wipe cache partition, then press the Power key.
6. When complete, press the Power key to reboot the phone.
The partition cache collects a lot of data for apps as they are running and keeps this data in the memory to help boot the phone up faster as well as boot up apps faster, this can hold corrupted files created when a third party application has permissions that conflict with the update program and clearing this cache will allow the system boot without the conflict.

Volume panel bug

Hi!
I have this bug with my OnePlus One. When I press volume up or down, the usual volume panel doesn't appear and requires a reboot to work again. This happens around two times a day. If I press both up and down buttons, I can turn the phone on vibrating mode and back to normal. Really annoys me to have to reboot phone to change volume level.
Anyone having this bug?

I'm having a similar problem with the sound. It doesn't make the beeping sound when I increase or decrease the volume, so it's difficult to know the volume level unless i'm on a call or open the settings. Also the haptic feedback has stopped working even though it's enabled. Still had the same problem after restarting.
