Maybe I've never noticed since I always wear my watch for notifications, while not wearing it tonight I noticed notification volume isn't very loud. Even with it turned all the way up. Os theos normal? I thought it was louder in the past
Yeah, possibly same here. I kept missing notifications but didn't think much of it... Now that you mention it though!

Pretty much every since the most recent update, every time I restart my Shield it makes a popping noise. This only happens when it has to play a sound for the first time since its unlock weather it be the sound for unlock or music. Is this a known issue, or am I SOL?
not 100% sure if my issue relates to yours but every so often (twice today so far) my tablet gives off a loud well.. not exactly a pop but its a loud distorted noise that lasts only a fraction of a second. (and its loud!. no matter what volume the tablet is on so scares the bejesus outa me when it happens). sometimes accompanied by a very quick 1 frame graphical hiccup if in games or apps.
has me a bit thrown off and a little worried.
ill keep an eye on it and if it keeps happening ill report back so see if there's any consistency with it.
does this sound similar to what you are getting?
I get this too, but its while playing an app game, like CoC.
Same problem

I am continuing to have the same popping sound. Did you ever solve this issue?

I still get it after many factory resets and the update to lollipop.
Thanks
I appreciate your response. That is discouraging news.
Me too. Felt like it was gonna blow my ears it a couple times. I was using earphones and the pop is very very loud, no matter what volume the tablet is set on.

Ive just noticed something strange with my phone. I had it placed flat on my desk and was looking at something with my face close to the screen and I can hear a very faint buzzing, like whwn a radio is on but the volume is turned down to zero. It seems to come on and off randomly....
The sound only happens when the phone is on a flat surface and you have to really listen out for it in a silent room.
Any idea what this is? I do have bluetooth and wifi turned on...
Happened to me last night as well.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers.
Glad im not the only one! It almost sound like the mic is being turned on and is recording! Spooky!!

When you'll hear it next time turn off DTS, touch sounds and lock sounds in sound settings and wait a few seconds.
Buzzing appears a few seconds after some sound came out of the speakers.
Anyone knows who should we contact and where to suggest a fix in the next update?

they MIGHT hacking ? or checking our phones spying that we have no idea ..
The Google now function always listens? One processor core Is always dedicated to Google now. You can disable this function. If it is not Google now I am very interested to know too. I am very against Google now do function, I do not like when the phone always listen to what you say. And the voice recognition is so good know days that they can turn it to searchable text in the other end...
Some one did mention it is Chinese. I would be more worried if it was American.

Do you know what it is?

I dont know for sure but I think its the NFC chip in the phone seeking out a connection...it only seems to happen when the phone is on a surface. I could be entirely wrong of course. The thing is NFC looks like its turned off in my settings but I dont think it actually is...
There are a few silly issues I'm having with the phone and I just want to find out if anything can be done, for my sanitys sake.
I hate the way the screen lights up when I plug my headphones in.
I hate the fact that the countdown timer will vibrate only in vibrate mode (unlike my M7 which made a noise) but when not in vibrate mode it was only make a noise. I guess it makes sense if you think about it, but to me, its nonsense. I want it to vibrate AND make a sound in either mode, hell I'd even take sound+vibrate in ringer on mode at this point. So I can be listening to music and the timer goes off (in vibrate mode) and if I don't feel the vibration in my pocket, tough. Hard to explain, but I have to call back to the HTC M7, it didn't do this, it worked.
I hate the way that the alarm clock has increasing volume only once. If you snooze the phone, the next time the alarm goes off, it goes off full blast, no increasing volume.
I've been using XtreStoLite Deo-Mod Edition 2.4 rom with a week or so now and it's great. But I have noticed some issues which really worry me. I got this phone because it's fast. But when I press the power button there is a definate delay until the screen lights up and Facebook messenger for reasons unknown makes the phone unusable, it lags so bad and even the soft keys don't work. Never did this on other phones and my partners non-rooted S6 is fine.
It does make me wonder, is all this rooting and custom ROM worth it. So far, I've got odd lag and an app which nearly breaks the phone. If I could adblock and restore apps without rooting, I think I would unroot.
Then sell it and be happy
What is your question exactly then?

Can we automate it so your response is posted for every thread talking about issues with this phone?
My Question is, are any of my issues "fixable". I know xposed could do a lot of things for the M7. Is there something I've missed which can help me with my issues?

Chill i was making a joke
Have you tried full wipe? Or completely unroot to stock? Then back?
I have.
My Mrs has a unrooted stock S6 which I use for comparison.
The lag issues and issue with Messenger are only my phone, the isues I have with the screen lighting up with headphones plugged in and the alarm clock, we both share those.
I know the lag and messenger issue could be fixed by going back to stock, but this is the problem with custom roms and rooting. You get given nice features and you risk losing them all when going back to stock. I can live without messenger and the wake up lag I can just put up with, but it isn't right. I guess in truth I expected too much from this phone, I wanted it to be blazing fast and it just doesn't feel it.
There isn't a great range of roms either, my M7 had literally dozens of roms to try but I find with the S6, there are like only a handful.
The problem in question goes way back to early moto devices like the nexus 6 and back. The issue is where the speaker doesn't play at full volume for the first second or so before going at full volume.
Is that still an issue here? I know it was on the moto x4.
I made a couple speaker phone calls on my Moto G7 Power and the volume is consistent. I hit the
speaker phone icon just after dialing and it doesn't fluctuate.

The use case it usually occurs under is if the the phone hasn't been used for a while and then a Sound plays. Like receiving a text notification. What I've understood in the past is that however moto sets up their hardware, the software has to "wake up" the speaker to play at full volume resulting in a lag. If the speaker is awake, no problems. So your particular use case may not affect it.
Do you mean that the notification appears on the screen and the sound lags behind it or the sound fluctuates
when a notification comes in. I'll try to replicate the problem if I know what your talking about.

Sort of the second part. You will notice a fluctuation as if the tone starts off very quiet, regardless of playback volume, before quickly elevating to the correct volume. It's as if it suppresses the first second of the sound.
Yeah, this is why my alarms sound quieter the first second. My G7 Power suffers this issue.
Even though, this hasn't been any problem besides that the beggining of each alarm is gentler. If this is repeated in any other circumstances, I never realized. So it's not much of an issue anyway, at least for me.
Went to a best buy to test one out. Still Doss it. I don't know why moto has to do this to every phi e.
I noticed the OXYGEN UPDATER APP now has Android 12 available to install but it hasn't quite made it to the official update in the settings. Just wondering if anyone has tried this update and whether you experienced or heard of any bugs?
I have no reason to think there is but Ive literally heard nothing good, bad or neutral. It's like no one owns this phone anymore. An update like this used to be noteworthy. That said, if anyone reads this and you have info, please share. Thanks
I have updated my device today and one thing I have noticed the most is that volume levels after the update are much lower than they were. I cannot use normally my earphones indoors and cannot image how bad it will perform outdoors.
Would be grateful if someone knows how to fix such problem.

I appreciate the feedback. I still haven't updated, but lately I've had volume issues. Both pairs of ear buds are noticeably lower than they were in the past. On one pair the right ear bud is barely usable, especially in a somehat noisy setting, but it's gotta be an issue with the ear bud.
In general, I need to crank them all the way up in the gym.

I have fixed the issue with low sound levels when using earphones, but, unfortunately, I cannot describe clearly how 'cause it was a bit incomprehensible. I just connected one more time my earphones to smartphone, opened some video on YouTube, then pop-out of some option about volume came out. Then I tapped on it and there was an option that has strange description (maybe it is because of localization) that I switched on, and the volume issue fixed magically. After that, I couldn't find that option once again in settings.
Sounds familiar. I think it's a built-in volume limiter. Should be able to find something in the settings and if not maybe enable developer settings and see if you find it there. Something like "absolute volume".
But it looks like you got it sorted out anyway.
Actually nevermind. I got that confused with something else. I believe all that would do is keep the earbuds and the phone volumes separate.
There's been talk that Android 12 and Android Auto don't work well in some cars - not OnePlus specific, but in general. Has anyone tried Android Auto with 12 yet on the OP8?

I did the update, and here is what I notice:
The icons on top of the screen are not the same size.
The Notifications sometimes are lost (Whatsapp/text etc)
Whatsapp voice calls echo and sometimes the phone does not ring
Ghost touches when gaming (clash royale)
The screen goes ON for no reason
The battery sometimes is okay, sometimes it drains (your mileage may vary)
Screen unlock fingerprint behavior slow at times and sometimes is fine.
The volume issue that everyone is reporting
All of if has been reported to OnePlus. If you visit the OP forums everyone is pretty pissed off about it myself included.
Honestly, it feels like this is an Alpha version of the ROM and they are using the general public to test and find bugs.
This is pretty frustrating a phone is not a toy is a tool for work and to communicate with others.
Fingerprint unlock stops working after a few days. Reboot brings it back.
Just to update. AA works fine with Android 12 on my OP8
