The other day I adjusted my volumes all to around 80% via the sound and notifications options. A couple of days ago, I noticed that my ringer is muted (the bell shows a diagonal line through it with the volume slider all the way to the left). If I tap on the ringer icon, nothing happens. If I try to slide the volume slider with my finger, it does not react. If I try to adjust it using the volume buttons, nothing happens. The other two volume sliders - alarms and media - work fine. I have DND turned off. I can't figure out why I can't turn my ringer back on. Anybody have any ideas?
Notification slider maybe ?

Above the power button you have a slide button.
It has 3 modes
Top- mute all, no vibrate
Middle- mute sound and vibrate only
Bottom - regular, all sound and vibrations. (this is where u want to have it if you want sound)
Thank You Whizeguy

Got it. Thank you so much. Really thankful.
I'm having the same problem but my slider won't work but I can't unmute my phone
I was having the same problem and didn't know it until I went to a web site that sends an sms. I had to restart the phone to turn ringtones back on.

Thank you so much, I totally forgot about that switch and was getting very frustrated till I read this response.
Thank you so much! I too was having trouble with mine and had not idea what was meant by the slider bar until you said it was above the on/off switch. Much appreciated!
BL
OnePlus7pro ringer muted.
You've got to be kidding lol
I've been walking around for 3 days without my ringer working and it was just the slide button!
Good grief, i must be dumber than a box of rocks?
Shout out to the guy that took the time to answer our dumb question.

Go to COMM MANAGER, you will see a speaker there. If the speaker is ON you're in trouble LOL, just turn it off whenever you need absolute silence . Best advice, while in school, turn off your phone and attend to class!
Strange... I'm using Gnat's 6.1 and when the keypad is locked (via holding the End Call button), the volume buttons take the phone out of standby but they don't alter the volume at all. The only key that does anything is the left soft key, aka the Unlock key when in locked mode. The volume buttons and the soft keys/home key/back key all turn the screen back on but don't function at all otherwise, until the phone is unlocked.
Are you using a different keypad lock program or something? Or are you also holding the End Call button to lock the keypad?
Mine alter the sound while the phone is locked - yes, it's bug.
I don't know how to fix that either, but I'm sure somebody on here does. Should be simple for somebody who is familiar with phone's registry.
OK . If anyone is working on it (registry fix) please post here results. By the way : in my school everyone have phones turned on, and silenced.

I don't understand what is your main issue. Is it MUTE the phone, then just turn off the sound. Edit your "silence" profile and make sure you have sounds turned off when you are in "Silence" mode. No mater where your side button points the volume to, Silence profile will determine if there will be sound or not. But you need to EDIT the profile and set it acordingly. The issue with the bottons, is something that will mostlikely be taken care of when a final WM6.1 comes out. For now, all there is are experimental test roms.
The same problem. It is still possible to adjust volume while keypad is locked
I'm still very confused by all this. I don't have this problem. I put the phone in Vibrate mode, lock my keypad, let the screen go black, then press the volume buttons. The screen comes on but the volume is unchanged, no matter how many times I press the buttons.
I understand , that the ringtones are silenced with other metods, but if I am using some kind of programs what are making noise, when in use ( for example some communicators) I know I can silence ringtones by Profiles , but I just want to find some solve for this problem, and not only me want this.
When I'm on a call (regular headset or speaker phone) and I press the volume buttons on the left of the phone, the display shows volume being changed up and down. But the actual call volume remains the same which is always loud.
The volume control buttons work for everything else (ringtone volume, Youtube, music, etc.), but just don't change the volume during calls. If there's a way to fix this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Well i can`t find this option. Can you help me a little bit ? thanks.
Im having the exactly same problem. Anyone found this option?
Hello please help me i have same problem i can't control call volume while i am on the call so please anybody help me
Thanks
In the top drop menu with all the toggles is the Sound toggle ("Vibrate - Mute - Sound"). I always keep it on vibrate.
I have noticed that the sound setting gets changed without my input. This has happened at least a dozen times so I don't think it's me accidentally doing it. I can't find a pattern to when it happens and it drives me crazy when the phone rings in a meeting or other inappropriate time.
Any ideas?

This can be toggled with the volume rocker on the side when the phone has been unlocked. You're probably doing this by accident.
This happens to me once in a while when I wake up in the morning and press the volume rocker to snooze my alarm.

Right you are - thanks. This is a drag though. Holding it with one hand it is almost impossible to press the wake key without also pressing the volume rocker. Not to mention accidental grabbing as you mention.
I got my phone today and everything is working fine except that i cannot get it out of the vibrate mode. i cannot slide the ring volume bar and it is stuck on 0%. i tried third party app and it can only get it vibrate or mute. Is this a hardware issue? or anyone else experiencing it?
You known the alert slider inn the right of the phone (next to the power button?)

yeah i know where it is and i can move the media and alarm bar but not the ring bar.
He meant the silder on the right, not the volume buttons. With the slider above the power button you can manually toggle ring, vibration and silent mode. When this slider is on vibration, it is not possible to increase the ringtone volume with the volume buttons.

I feel like an idiot. This is my first oneplus phone and i didnt knew about this. Thank you very much man.
When I switch a call over to the speaker, the volume is extremely loud. The volume slider(s) do nothing! I see the standard slider which can be moved up and down (but does not make any changes to volume), and there is a secondary slider to its left which is faded out and cannot be moved.
1) What is the purpose of this secondary, non-functional slider?
2) How can I gain control of speakerphone volume?
I have the opposite problem. I think the speakers are too soft. Sometimes hard to hear video and music without headphones even on max. Voice calls are ok, but would prefer them a bit louder like I had on other phones.

The way I can adjust speaker volume during a call is by pressing the rocker, then the 3 dots which brings up Sound and vibration menu. There is a menu for call volume which adjusts speaker volume and in-ear volume.

1) I believe that slider is a slider for an Accessibility feature called Switch Access. I had to activate this feature to get my Google Assistant mic-open notification sound to work. I only saw this secondary slider when I set Switch Access up. I never saw it faded out....

2) It seems your slider is not set to call/speaker volume, but ring & notification or media volume. I sometimes get this, but not consistently. You should do as schmeggy929 says and have to specifically set it in the sounds settings menu (3 dots gets you there). Hopefully this bug is addressed...
I found an answer on another site and it worked for me. In the phone app, hit the 3 dots at the top right, go into phone settings, down to "General" then to "Accessibility". Toggle the "hearing aids" on and off......that worked for me.
Hope this helps someone.
