Okay, I went from the Razr XT912 to the XT926 .....
On my 912, I could hold down the volume rocker and get the device to go from full ring to vibrate and then into silent mode. How in the world do I do it with the 926??? I have had the two devices side by side with the same settings and cannot seem to get it to do what the 912 would do.
Is it possible? Was this an option that isnt on the 926? Both devices are NOT rooted, running 4.0.4
Please and thank you.
That's odd, just tried it on mine and it works fine. I am not rooted either and am not seeing any special settings or anything...

I just tried it too worked on mine, i was rooted but then unrooted phone. Either way it functioned properly. Hold down rocker for volume down it vibrates then push again for silent
Nope. If I hold it down, the volume goes all the way down, and it should go to vibrate....... if I let up off the rocker and hit it again it goes to silent.

So I stopped into the Verizon store today...... the guys backs up my contacts and does a master reset to my device.....
Now, I have a damaged sd card error and i cannot use it. The same card that was in the device prior to going into the store. BUT, now when I turn the rocker down there is a vibrate function?!?!

Just received my tf today, everything was working great so far but then I noticed that the volume down button doesn't do anything although the volume up button and power/lock button are clearly functional. Any idea if its a hardware/software issue? What should I do?

My tf's volume up and down works but my power button doesn't, I can't turn if off. To turn the screen on I have to plug my charger in or eject my micro sd.
Posting my issue because it sounds like we are having similar problems.

received mine today aswell and my volume rocker doesnt work. All it does is make the volume slider show up on the screen but doesnt lower the volume. Other than that love it
I'm having the same problem with my volume up button. Aside from that, I'm loving it.
Those with volume issues hold the power button and shut the tablet totally off, should be fixed after restart.

It is a known bug and when I rebooted the TF, everything back to normal. Try it.
Hey guys, I've had my HTC Desire S for about a month now,
Today I was using it, and the volume kept turning itself up. I turned it back down, and a few seconds later, back up to nothing. Repeated that a few times, and it kept happening.
I played with the volume buttons and they don't feel jammed at all, the vol. up button is clicking fine, doesn't feel stuck or anything. And if that wasn't bad enough, I tried turning my phone off and on, but when turning it on, it still thinks it's held down so it will only boot into recovery mode. so, as a result my phone wont boot up at all....!!!
Is there any solution for this?? can i disable the Volume rocker??? plz help me out guys..........(i have already rooted my phone so warranty is void!!)

not sure about the volume rocker but it is possible to unroot & change to s-on for warranty purposes(not sure about the recovery though)
I put my phone inside a box.
That pretty much disabled the volume rocker.
My power button decided to die on me last night (had the phone since Feb). Luckily, I can wake the screen using the volume keys thanks to widgetlocker, and I am using a widgetsoid app widget to lock the screen. Still would like my power button back, I can't switch off the phone without battery pull, and to switch back on, i need to plug it into a charger. ANyone experience this? Do I need to open the damn thing and mess around with it to get the button to work again? Looks like a purely physical/mechanical problem here.
so I guess I'm screwed based on all the views without any replies :s

ive been using my phone with a dead power button since august. no problems here(lol). and the same thing with my nexus one the year before. cm has a volume rocker wake option, lockscreen widget turns off the screen, rootbooter boots into recovery, bootloader, and reboots(can power off in recovery or bootloader). but, im not on cm anymore, now im on ics. in ics, if you disable the lockscreen, you can wake with the volume rocker without any extra apps. also, im using the button remapper app to use my search button as the power button to turn off the screen. im using the twrp recovery instead of cwm recovery, because you dont need the power button in twrp recovery. to power on my phone from a cold start, i just give my phone a light smack on the backside, near the power button.
haha, interesting comment about the backside smack! Couldn't get that to work from a cold start. I have to plug it in..
unfortunately, I am using stock ROM, so I will have to make do with the apps available to me now.. widgetlocker manages ok with the volume buttons, but sometimes it fails, and I end up having to call myself from my landline from the office when I don't have my charger with me.
Guess I'll have to wait for ICS to come OTA (god knows when that will be, but can't be too far away now).
same issue here
even my power button died a month ago.. and have never rooted my phone
have been managing with "widget locker" and "screen off and lock" apps.
Did you get the OTA update of ICS for nexus s
Now that I can't manually update my phone, is there any way to force an OTA to the phone ?
Why not have the thing repaired?
Hi,
I purchased DVP from eBay from the guy who slightly used it. It seems its was a T-Mobile version. When I got it first time and inserted my sim in it and started the phone, it stucked on a screen which says.

January 05
try again in 16794320 minutes
And I can't do anything on it except for the emergency call (or camera button works). I can see full signals, and also can receive calls. But can't make any call (except for emergency) and any other operation on the phone.
Is there someone who can suggest me whats wrong with the phone and why it is stucked in that weird situation? And most importantly, how can I get rid of this situation?
thanks.

your handset is pin locked and wrong pin entered lots of times
Thank you for your reply.
But is there any way to unlock it? Please suggest.
thanks,
Yes, the only option at this point is to do a hard reset. take the battery out for about 30 secs., put the battery back in and hold both the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time and hit the power button once while still holding down the volume buttons. You should see a white screen with instructions, follow the on screen instructions. Note that you might get the rainbow screen, if this happens just repeat steps until you get the white screen; took me a few tries but it works.
thanks for the suggestion.
I am trying that, but it seems not working. I kept pressing both volume keys and then press power button and it simply boots up, no white or any other screen.
Somewhere else on the internet, I read that you can't hard reboot Dell Venue Pro using buttons, the only way to do that is using its about menu (I never saw about menu of Windows 7 as this is the first time I am using it). Is that true?
thanks

Make sure you hold the 2 volume buttons down and then press and hold the power button for a second but keep holdin down the volume buttons the whole time.
Believe me, I tried it exactly as you said.
Hold down both volume buttons.
Pressed the Power button and released.
I took off the battery for several minutes and then put that back in and then tried it. But it just booted normally. Holding down the camera button though takes it to the USB mode.
I even tried that with and without SIM card.
Are you sure you tried that with Dell Venue Pro?
thanks, I appreciate your help
Ok first of the Dell was my favorite Windows phone but lacked some things that other Windows phones have like after Mango update the caplebility to WiFi tether and the camera is just hands down awful. Anyway I have a Titan now. Anyhow I gonna help you. Like I mention the Dell lacks a few things other windows phones have and one of it is the hard reset button combination. It won't work on the Dell. Your best thing to do is contact dell they can help you getting the phone back up running for you. Sorry.
I believe that the thread in the Venue Pro forums about how to unbrick it will apply here to fix your issue.

Found this on line (Google is your friend):
How to hard reset Dell Venue Pro using phone buttons
1. Switch the phone off, if it is unresponsive, remove the battery and reinsert after few seconds.
2. Press volume down and camera buttons simultaneously and keep holding it.
3. Press Power button and then release it but continue holding the volume down and camera buttons.
4. Once you see the format screen release the pressed buttons.
5. Follow the instructions to reset your phone to its factory default settings.

Do you have a link of that? I have been trying but didn't found any solution out there as well.
Tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411300 ?
What you've tried so far was Volume buttons, not Volume down+Camera buttons. Try that first and don't give up, on some phones you have to try many many times (my 2nd Desire HD wouldn't allow me to get to the boot loader before 15 minutes! I sold it the next day and I still owe the 3rd one).

thank you forelli. But remember, the volume down and camera buttons causes to boot in USB mode. I am not sure how it will get it to hard reset.
My brothers phone is having volume issues. There is zero volume and if he tries to turn it up he gets a pop up message that says "adjust volume from accessory". Ive googled it but found very little, ive never even heard of it before. Also, if I go to volume settings I see the volume tab is grayed out...not allowing me to access the volume settings. Need help guys. Thanks.
