I upgraded to dcd's 2.2.6 rom. and new radio. Now the only control of any volume I have is when I'm on the phone. I can't adjust the volume for anything else (alarms, rings...). When I attempt to change the volume whil the phone is ringing, it just stops the ring all together.
I searched and it brought up the list of changed items in the release of each ROM, with Volume tweak. What is the Volume Tweak? I searched through my phn and can't find a volume anywhere.
Any ideas?
Reinstalling ROM may fix this problem, sounds like there was something that went awry. I use Vol_WM6.exe on one of my hard buttons to open sound in any app, google it and download.

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
TMOUSA HD2, latest stock ROM.
I searched about this problem on the web with Google, and on this forum, and have not yet found a solution. I hope that someone reading can help me.
This has nothing to do with the system volume, nor the ringer volume, both of which I have set to max.
It only involves in-call volume, hearing the other party talking to you. I have this same problem whether the sound is coming directly from the handset pressed against my ear, or with a bluetooth headset.
Whenever I receive a call on the HD2, at first the sound of the other party's voice is WAY too low. I cannot understand anything they say, do not know who it is, in fact I barely hear anything. (That, despite, both the system and ringer volumes both set to max.)
Then, I press the volume up on the volume rocker several times, or the volume control on my bluetooth headset, and finally I can hear the person talking to me.
That is a hassle--that when someone calls, at first I barely hear anything, don't even know who it is, or what they said, until I press the volume up rocker several times.
It seems like, regardless of system and ringer volume settings, that with an incoming call, the volume is initially set at a VERY low level.
Is there a way that can be fixed--registry tweak, etc.?
I may have come across a fix for this, but am not sure.
I did a search for the word "Volume" in the registry.
One key and value I came across was the following key:
HKLM\Services\HTCAP\SmartHandsetVolumeControl\Handset
I took the value InCallVolume, and changed the dword data to the number which I think represents max volume: 4294967295.
I think that has helped with the problem of the initial call volume on receieved calls being too low. I'm not sure yet though, as I have not received many calls since.
I see many different volume control values in the SmartHandsetVolumeControl key and its subkeys, and cannot say I understand them.
Is there someone reading who really understands what these different registry volume settings mean?
Today I checked voice mail. Therefore a call I placed to voice mail, not an incoming call. I wasn't using a bluetooth headset, but had the phone directly to my ear. I heard the voice mail recording way too softly, could hardly make it out. I pressed the up volume rocker, and it didn't make any difference, I could barely make out the voice mail. (By the way, this was after I made the change mentioned above.)
I think the HD2 has a lot of strange quirks regarding volume, and I think these registry keys may hold the key for dealing with them. If anyone reading really understands the HD2's volume registry keys, please help us to understand them.
Thank you.
PS
I found the following page:
http://www.techparaiso.com/windows-...t-phone-volume-levels-on-windows-phone-device
which describes volume registry settings in \HKCU\Control Panel
It is really confusing, all the different volume settings in the HD2 registry, some generic to WM 6.5, and others specific to HTC and the HD2.
If someone really understands how all these volume settings interact, it would be great if a guide to them were posted!
Thanks in advance.
I couldn't get this to work. Does anyone know how to change the call volume via the registry? My phone crashed when I try to do it via the hard buttons on this ROM.
Notifcation volume and ringtone volume as one!!
Sorry to be unlcear and previous firmware but i can only say what i remember, I got a new SGS and the firmware was 2.2 JPO
in that i could tick a box and it would make the notification volume be the same as my ringtone volume, yet with the firmware i upgraded (2.2.1 I9000XXJPU) the box is not available, so if i use the volume buttons on the side it only controls the ringtone, so if i want to turn my email/text notification down i have to go into settings/sounds/volume then change from within, just it would be so much easier if when i used the volume kieys on the side, if it changed both volumes!!
any fixes/ideas??
also with this new firmware the volume seems more quite, previously it was VERY loud, any way to change that, i already have it on full, unless i am just getting old
Many thanks!

Download volume + from market
download Audio Manager or Audio Manager Pro from market (free vs paid)
can adjust every volume, create profiles and widgets
OR Remove your phone from your ear > unlock any lockscreen (if you have any) > adjust volume > put phone back to your ear
So I noticed that I could no longer adjust volume using the up/down buttons, and it has been coincidental with 7.1.1. I called Google, and they ended up sending me a new phone. The new phone's volume rockers worked (it came with 7.0), but as soon as new versions updated, the rockers stopped working! Has anyone had this same issue? I guess I can call and say I'd like to return the new phone (have not returned my original yet) and get back my $79 fee, but dang, I'd like to be able to adjust the volume. Stumped. Any suggestions?
Solved
Well, I didn't search hard enough. Was able to find online that someone had the same problem. The issue is with Talkback app. Solution is to disable it, and volume buttons work again.
Might have been hardware
