hey guys i have 2 questions for u ...i'll be glad if u'll be able to help me .
1st Q- sometimes im listening to music using my earphones. im putting the phone itself on vibrate , and then changing the volume of the song by pressing on the volume buttons on the side of the phone . i see the tab which has 2 parts - system and ringer . im changing the system only , and the ringer is still on Vib. but when i have a phone call its ringing .. am i doing something wrong ?
2nd Q- on the main screen , on the middle,there is the clock and weather.
when pressing on it , i can see 2 options :" my current location " and also the name of the city where i am. sometimes , instead of writing the name of the city ,, its writing " my current location " and i have to change it.
i doiwnloaded a fix someone posted here , but it helped me only for the weather tab , to remove th current location from the locations list.
how can i fix it also regarding the clock ?
sorry for the length i was trying to make it as clear as possibe
there is an option in the sound menu to make volume control for system and ring the same i would suggest you do that then when you put your phone on vibrate you will only have to do it once

Hey everyone,
My XDA doesn't ring anymore when someone rings me.
If I go into phone options, I can change the ring tone, and they work in there using the play button. They are very low though, even when I put the phone's volume on max.
Then I go back to the home screen, try to ring my phone and it doesn't ring. The vibrate function still works and it still makes a noise when I get a text. Just nothing when it rings.
Any ideas? Cheers.
May be You already did it, but if your phone switched to "vibrate only"
mode?

Nope, but thanks anyway mate.
Anyone? It's doing my nut in now!
OK, obvious things to try / questions etc:
Have you tried to soft reset?
Do you have a "profile changer" installed (pocket zen phone for example)
Is the ringtone selected on (tick in the box) (dumb question i know, but...)
Are you using a default tone? or one you have added youself?
If its a custom one, edit on PC and increase the amplitude (make it louder) - try again - any better?
Have you one anything / installed anything etc which caused this problem? if so what
Is the phone & master volume at max? if not try with them both up all the way

Thanks a lot for this mate.
1. - Yes
2. - No
3. - Yes
4. - Tried both and tried making my custom one louder
5. - No
6. - Right, this is where we made some progress. I usually have my master volume set on the level above nothing (i.e. very low) and my phone setting on the lowest one. I assumed that this was the in-call volume. But I put it up a notch and the ringing was back. Yeah! So I assume it's the whole phone functions' volume and not just the in-call volume. I can see the logic but I'm not completely sold.
Anyway, you are a legend and I thank you very much.

IIRC to adjust the in-call volume you must be in a call and then use the slider on the side of the wizard. i'm not 100% sure but this is as good as my brain can manage today

hi, bsterngillet,
im also new to this here. just got my o2 min s last week. i just started tweaking it. i experienced the same situation as yours, and seemed to have figured out the problem.
with the original rom, AND without any program installed, the volume sliders behaviors are:
Master volume slider adjust Ringer, Notifications, Tap
Phone volume silder adjust Phone
however, upon installing "certain" programs (in my case, a language translation/inmput software "Monster Chinese 5.1"), the volume sliders behaviors altered as:
Master volume slider adjust Notifications, Tap
Phone volume silder adjust Ringer (but ALSO as a subset of Master Volume --- so it's like a old school mixer, master volume has an effect on the whole scheme of things)
The phone volume can then be altered during a call.
So, my settings now is:
Master volume slider = Halfway
Phone volume slider (i.e. ringer) = First click down from Max
Phone Voice volume= adjust as needed
hope this helps .... and hope this is correct.
I had a problem with this before...
I had been using my headphones prior to this though and when I put them back in and out it worked fine
Thanks to your thread i have been able to sort out exactly the same problem regarding vibrating but no volume. It did my nut in too, funny how there is usually a simple answer just around the corner.
Cheers

Hey everyone,
Had a question,
My phone, when on vibrate, does a good 10seconds for any text message, phone call, or what not - any ideas how to edit this - it's WAYY to long of a vibration and I end up needing to have the phone on silent.
Thanks,
~Maciek
if you have a 3prt profile app chack if there are settings regarding this issue ,you can also try diff ring and ring settings of the phone ,most likely you have a software that dose it ,try also to check on start/settings/sound & notification /notification if the settings are ok (play with it) as last option you can always backup your device prform hr and check this function (to know your device is ok) good luck with finding it

- Try again to receive one call

Hi there.
How can I increase the volume of the microphone?
Can I adjust it in the service menu ?
The microphone is very quiet!
Many people do not understand me well because I'm so quiet ...

Hold the phone closer to your mouth when speaking? Especially if this happens when you use the phone in noisy environments. You can also go to the settings menu and try disabling the (call settings) noise suppression option.
The built in microphone has an automatic level control, so an external mic will do a lot better in unusual situations like this. You can set the mic gain in the service mode menu but it may have undesirable consequences, so you should leave that as a last resort. Moreover you still have to contend with the auto level if you are using the internal mic, so raising the mic gain would not be expected to help if there is high background noise levels.
.
Thanks for your answer.
Can you tell me how can i adjust it in the service menu ???
Change the setting in the "audio" submenu of the service mode page.

Hi everyone....
I have Android 11. In Settings-Sound and vibration-Ringtone SMS vibration and in Default notification sound.
I change both sections by putting the tone or sound that I like the most but curiously, whenever I connect the mobile to the bluetooth of my car, it changes these two tones of both sections and always puts the same .... "flyer". This tone is in the folder that belongs to the alarm sounds on the clock (CURIOUS, CURIOUS !!).
I have tried to modify everything, to change for other tones, to reset Fabirca twice, to clear cache for recovery. None of these things have worked for me.
Anyone who has (which I doubt) or has gone through a similar story with their terminal ?. Say that Android 10 did not happen to me.
I wait for answers ..... Thank you very much
