Ive had BLN-L24 B360 for a little under a week now and have noticed some frustrating issues with regards to the volume levels on this phone. For the most part it seems as though the volume slider that indicates volume level/loudness is just a dummy switch because sound from the phones speaker does not go up or down, it is simply on or off, as in the first step above mute is the same volume as max.
This this is the case with all volume levels through the phones speaker and is extremely frustrating because the sounds are too loud. Whether it is screen lock or unlock, receiving a text or call, or the alarm, I dont need everything being super loud even though I have the volume set low. Im tired of being jolted awake by the alarm that I can't adjust and I cant even watch a video clip without headphones at night because everything is just too damn loud.
With head phones plugged in I notice there is some change in volume with notifications and ringtones but there is just no low volume . Media volume (music) with headphones is the only level that can be adjusted to a low volume but I notice that once the high volume warning dialog pops up around halfway, the volume from there to max stays roughly the same.
Ive seen other people say that low headphone output is a major complaint about this phone but has anyone else experienced loud, unadjustable volume from their phones speaker? It seems to me like a software issue which leads me to believe I'm not the only one. If my description of the issue was confusing, the volume output of the phones speaker is exactly the same in both screenshots.
Edit: While looking through all the audio settings once again it seems that somehow viper4android phone speaker was was turned on and extra loud was turned on unknowingly, which explains why the first step of volume was so loud. However this has since been turned off and still doesn't explain why alarms, ringtones and notifications volume is not really adjustable, the volume is just a bit lower now.
a factory reset could change the behavior.
However, this is not the same behavior many are facing, the problem, in general, is low loud speaker volume and none of the user reported this behavior you mentioned. may be a factory reset can help.

hi,
i have recently purchased the chamelon headset for my tmobile mda2(himalaya). with the help of bluetooth tools for pocket pc i have been able to bond the 2 devices successfully and have achieved a fair working state between both devices. however there is one problem that cannot be avoided. it seems like the volume output on the headset is very low, its very difficult to hear anyone on the other end. the manual states that while in call you can turn up the volume until you hear a beep to indicate the volume is at its highest setting. despite numerous attempts at trying to get the volume higher i have not had any success. while in call i try to press either buttons and there is no change in volume. i have heard a beep a few times after 20-30 consecutive presses but i didnt notice much or if any change in volume. is there anyway to adjust the volume on the headset while not in a call? im not sure whether this may be a problem with the chameleon or perhaps a problems with the bluetooth in the microsoft OS?
Anyone else experience problems like this?
Maybe the Chameleon suffers from the same feature as my BTH-808 headset: When I use it in my right ear the volume-down button (on the side of the headset) is likely to press on my ear and thus . . . .minimizes the volume.
Work-around: use in left ear or ut in with care.
Same behaviour as you describe in changing volume. You have to press the volume-up button approx once every 1-2 seconds for the volume to go up one step.
Took me a week to find out what happened . . .
sigh. i wish it was that simple.
it seems like i have got the headset to its highest volume and it still sounds very weak. nextlink support tells me the volume on the bluespoon is generally very loud.
man... the BT on this machine is really a nightmare.
have you tried to put volume higher like I mentioned. When I press the volume-up to quick, It simply stays low, although I hear the 'volume-up beep'!!
Otherwise: Back for warranty I guess
Does anyone here know if there is such a thing as a cooked rom with the External Volume ring, and the internal volume turned up, I mean I have a perfarated ear drum and the volume is really bad, i had an iphone 3gs and 4 and they volumes on themare exclent. Not sure id the image can be tweaked to turn the volumes up past there max, i heartd they are low to abide by uropean law but hell the volume is really low and i have seen the same message around on other forums as well.
Appreciate it if a developer could inform me if turning the volume up is possible past its default, maybe a custom cooked image with the settings tweaked would be good.
Thank you

No matter what volume I pair my Verizon HTC One M8 (KitKat) at, my bluetooth volume reverts to "LOW" each time connect to Bluetooth speakers. I get a "Maximum Volume Warning," and then have to manually crank it up with the volume rocker on the phone.
I use several speakers throughout the house...JBL PowerUp in my living room, and a Waterproof Speaker in the bath. Forums indicate that this has been a problem for other users on the M7, and some phones as far back as the Dell Streak! Only advice I can find is re-pairing, but I've done that at Maximum volume, and the higher volume setting will not hold.
Is this a know issue? Are there any other workarounds?? Anyone else having this problem???

this started from yesterday evening, i'm watching youtube and the volume is annoyingly low, i increase the volume by using the volume rocker on the side of the phone but the volume is still the same, i go into settings and change the volume level from there and it suddenly goes into max volume.
then today after i had set the alarm clock i couldn't hear anything because yet again the volume had suddenly gone down again at this point i have no idea what is causing it, i don't have any bluethooth devices connected to it, no headphones, nothing in the headphone jack so i'm clueless as to what is causing it my phone is not rooted either.
this is frustrating me as i use my phone for a alarm clock and i can't rely on it for now due to this issue, no idea where to start with it.
so the volume is low, i increase the volume with the rocker no effect, i then go into settings and adjust the volume from there it goes back to high volume and then after a while it goes back to low volume again without any input from me.
If your device is rooted, I recommend you try Viper and see how it will help react.
I did say I didn't have root from the start.
anyways I'm thinking it may have a link with the latest update that was pushed, it was the October security update, this is when the problem started so it may have effected it.
Hello
I have a OP7Pro and I use regularly 3 Bluetooth devices, my car (where the volume from the phone has to be maxed), on-ear headphones with anc (where volume should be much lower) and on-ear headphones (where the volume should be low).
I identified that lots of times, with the new features of Android P, the volume is remembered from device to device but sometimes it is not, and after using the Bluetooth with the car, the volume of the on-ear headphones is maxed which kills my ears...
Does this happen to someone else? Is it a known bug? Is there a solution for this?
Bump I have this stupid annoying issue the same. My volume is the same across the border same volume level for music in calls speaker etc
Mine also, doesn't remember my Bluetooth prior volume setting's. It defaults back to Max volume...
If you have bt absolute volume enabled, the phone will take the setting of the device it is connected to. Not sure that helps entirely though.
