[Q] Nexus 5 silent mode problem

I'm using the stock Kitkat 4.4 KRT16M Nexus 5
And I'm having following problems
1. I muted the phone with volume rocker and set the phone into vibrate mode.
2. I open a website via chrome and watch videos via MX player v1.7.20.
3. The sound still coming out from the player even after I turn all the volume down to 0.
4. In vibrate mode when I play games the sound will pop out once in a while.
Is it software problem or hardware problem? Please help.

Its not an issue at all!!!
When you set to vibrate only the "Phone and Notification" volumes drop to 0.
but the "Music and Alarm" volumes will remain the same.
You have to manually disable sounds in apps/games if you want a perfect 0 in Vibrate mode!
Hope this helps!

Hide it Pro app should help you to adjust all sounds.

Slide options needs 2 taps post version 1.7.19. Is this device specific issue?

Hello,
While watching video on MX player and when i try to increase/decrease volume, brightness and seeking forward backward with one finger slide, it is not happening directly. In version 1.7.19 it happens directly. Post that version, i need 2 taps of finger to do the above actions. With the 1st tap, you will get that seekbar and then you need to tap 2nd and slide for those actions. This is very annoying and I REPEAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT THERE IN VERSION 1.17.19.
I tried the below troubleshooting steps on the latest version and no luck in still using version 1.7.19 because it's free of that problem:
1. Restarted phone
2. Checked all MX player settings
3. Installed MX player codec (ARMV7)
4. Force stopped and cleared cache and data
5. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app.
6. Tried few older versions as well.

Disable System audio panel from Settings 》Audio. It won't appear again.

Hi, is there also a way to disable the message, when you increase the volume above 10, when headset is plugged in? Every morning and evening I have to increase volume to 13, and have to deal with this message. Message would make more sense once you exceed the default max of 15.

It's android's internal alert. I think it can't be disabled in the current version. But, I am not sure that whether it's possible to disable it permanently or not.

Is there any workarounds?

No, there is no workaround because this message is not from application process but from Android audio system service. And Google did not make any way to remove it because this is violation to EU regulation.

Question: "My volume is stuck at 50% and won't go higher, why?"
Answer: Blame Google. See this: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/mx-videoplayer/-g9Mq6lIGAo/discussion
Quote of answer from original Google Groups thread:
This is an Android system "feature". Google added it to comply with EU laws. The EU requires companies to warn of "excessive volume on headphones" to protect your hearing.
If you go into MX Player Settings -> Audio -> Enable System Volume Panel, this will bring up the Android system volume panel whenever you change volume. This will bring up that volume warning at 50% that you see in other apps, so that you can clear it.
The reason this doesn't show in MX Player normally is because MX Player doesn't use the Android system volume panel by default. MX uses its own volume panel, the much cleaner, smaller one that we are used to seeing.
The warning shows up on Google Play Music because that app uses the system volume. If you are on headphones with any other app that uses the Android system volume panel, you would see the same warning.
Note that you'll have to manually acknowledge that warning every time you restart the device, as the phone system does not "remember" that you cleared it when the device restarts.

[Possible Bug] Audio jumps twice or all the way to the top, on increasing the volume

This is happening since last few versions of the free mx player, at least for me. Decreasing volume works fine. It's only when increasing, that this occurs. Also, it happens quite a lot of the time.
Increasing volume outside mx player works fine.
I'm using S7582, 4.2.2 (Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2).I use mx in companion with v4a (if that helps).

There is nothing special on changing sound volume level. It just calls a simple system function that makes volume changed. I guess v4a looks like having some issues.
As a workaround, you can make MX not touch system sound volume by unchecking Setting > Audio > System volume.

[Q] Mx player stopping problem

Mx player stopping automatically when i am trying to increase my volume...everytime happening like this only i fedup with this thing..please help me to find out the answer..i am using it in lenovo a6000

Settings > Audio > System volume
Settings > Audio > System volume panel
Try toggling those, see if it makes a difference.
Also try toggling this:
Settings > Player > Play alone
It'll force MX to take audio lock, see if that does anything.

Actually it's an firmware issue. When the earphone is inserted, increasing the volume above safe limit leads to crash.
Another bug with some lenova A6000 is Storage Access Provider doesn't shows either internal or external. There is no menu as well to enable show sdcard option. So, Those who are having firmware bugs can't grant sdcard write access to any app.

Question Audio issue on poco x3 pro

Hi, its been a month since started using Miui. My poco x3 pro has audio issues which some times plays audio louder and sometimes very low .. this variation happens frequently .. this happens even in call on speaker phone... don't know what is the problem . Someone please help me

Sound Assistant for individual apps is on?
Open Settings and go to Sound & Vibration.
Tap on Sound Assistant and make sure it's turned on for individual apps
To trigger Sound Assistant, press volume up/down button
A round blue music icon will appear on the left side, tap on it, and adjust the volume for each individual app
It looks like this ... I think

Thanks for your reply @eharada ! But I have Audio level variation within the same app..

I had a similar problem. I was listening to music and suddenly the audio was louder so I had to lower the volume and sometimes I had to increase the volume. It was very annoying
I realized the problem was triggered by the app Telegram, when you send a message it has a sound effect and that sound effect made the volume to go up and down.
Anyways I resolved the problem by going to settings - sound & vibration - sound assistant - and check "multiple audio sources"
