My Wizard is acting very weird. Whenever the phone rings the phone volume automatically goes to the highest level. I would change it to a low volume but once another call comes in it goes back up by itself. Also, once in a while, there's no sound from any speaker even though the volume bar shows there's sound. Adjusting the volume bar doesn't bring the sound back--it's muted. I have to reset the phone to fix the problem.
FYI: I'm using T-MO custom ROM 2.17.
Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas? Thanks
That's not about cracking sounds... Actually I think there's another thread regarding this behavior (maybe with 1.43), but I can't find it.
Anyways, when I received an incoming call (and using the earpiece) and the volume is already set to its maximum I noticed that the actual volume is weaker than what it supposed to be. so I started to play with the volume rocker down and back up to maximum set - and suddenly, I could hear my client louder and clearer.
I haven't tried it with outgoing calls, but it is the situation each time I receive an incoming call. I have to play with the rocker in order to get the right volume intensity.
Have you noticed that as well?...
Am I the only one?! is my device faulty?!
goodday to all hd2 users...i noticed that on my hd2, when i make calls, before the calls is connected the tone is very loud...i need to press the volume down button everytime i make a call. the volume is at minimun but sounds like max. ive done a hard reset still same.
hi guys,
sometimes, let's say one time per day i have strange bug with ring volume..i noticed that somehow ring volume going down on the lowest dash immediately after i dial any number, if i just press CALL that is enough for this strange bug. so after that i can pump volume to the maximum but if i dial again volume will go down by itself
so i tried to power off phone, still nothing, only restart will fix this, and that is pain in the ass because it restart all the process & apps on your phone
anyone have this weird situation with ring volume??
i use original rom with all updates that came so far...
This bug has been around since the TP. No idea why it has migrated operating systems..
Anyhow, try this. Set your notification volume to max. Wait a few seconds, and go into your notification tones and play one. Immediately after it has finished, play it again. Notice the first time it played, the volume was substantially quieter. The second time it played, it actually used max volume as per your setting.
This greatly effects notifications with just a few bytes of sound and not an ongoing ringtone. An ongoing ringtone will begin quieter than full, and then pick up to full volume or whatever you have in your settings but the first few sound bytes will always be quiet.
If you have notifications set for text or email, you will never hear your notifications at full volume unless it`s an ongoing ringtone (and who the hell wants that!).
I cant believe this hasn't been addressed yet. I have already tested this with three stock DHDs (but none with any custom roms.)
After my meeting with the regional HTC rep this week I will load a custom ROM onto my DHD and test further.
Feel free to post your findings! Would like to know if this issue is present in custom roms as well.
EDIT: Initial problem (/w TP2) discovered here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-touch-pro-2/80017-speaker-volume-quiet-then-loud.html
I have just tried what your talking about.
but it doesnt seem to happen on my phone..
My phone was set to silent, then uped it to max,
went to my sound settings - notifications, selected the one i usually use,
sounded normal..
tapped it 4 more times.. no difference.
I think I know what you mean, at the home screen if you use the volume rockers and kee increasing, I can hear the volume getting louder as I press even when the volume on screen bar is at max.
I found that even at max it was still too quiet. I got my tones into SoundForge and increased the volume by like 50% and its nice and loud now

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's definitely something to consider.. good idea, I need to try that!... We're you able to do this with notification tones or just ring tones?
Just to note if you keep pressing the notifications you won't hear a difference, its the very FIRST sound that comes from the speaker will be quiet after a short rest of a few seconds.
Turn off the screen as well.. wait a couple of seconds, turn it back on, play a sound and then play it again and you'll notice that the second time it plays is a lot more audible (playing at max volume).
I just increased the volume on a ringtone(mp3) I want and put it on the sd card, and selected it as my ringtone. I did the same with a tone I wanted as my sms, but saved it in the notifications folder. I've only done it with my ringer and sms tone so far. Temporary fix but if I'm trimming my tones on my pc I can increase the volume as well, hopefully I don't have to keep doing it for long. I haven't tried the roms with volume fixes yet.
Using Revolution 4.0 and seems to be working fine.
Just wanted to post back. After rooting and roming the issue definitely has not ceased. I've learned to cope and will eventually make some tones that have amped volumes with some PC apps.
Still annoying though.. tested on 9 DHDs so far. Not one didnt have the issue. Ugh.
