Ring Volume problem - Xperia Arc General

Dear All, i face a strange problem today, automatically i find the ring volume is decreased to the minimum, i increase again and after a while when i open the phone from sleep i find it decreased again, any one know a solution for this issue pls, thnx

did you install Viber?

I have the same problem & I installed Viber.
What's wrong?

yes i did install viber, seems the problem is from it, i don't know why i uninstalled and things went fine, but this is a new problem as i have installed viber a month ago and it was well, that happened about 3 days ago only

It's obviously Viber's bug, it's a known issue on the Android Beta, they even listed that on their site:
http://support.viber.com/entries/20079021-known-issues
14 After Viber call, phone ringer is turned down or muted.

Sound / microphone issue & backing up Text messages

I'm having a strange sound issue with my Wizard since late this afternoon.
Got called several times today, sound was working great en mic aswell. But around 4 I got called. The ringtone played as usual, but I couldn't hear the other line and there was no sound at all.
Did a softreset, but this did not help. Friend tried calling me, no luck.
So a hardreset followed, and again it did not help anything.
Now I don't hear any sounds coming from the build in speakers and my mic is not working aswell.
Tried several soft- and hardresets, tried removing the battery, checked every possible option in the phone... nothing.
Strange thing thou is that when i connect my headset, I do have sound and people do hear me. And the vibration is still working aswell.
Is it possible both my mic and build in speakers are defected? I still think it's a ROM issue since I'm using a custom T-Mobile 2.26 ROM.
...
Which brings me to problem number 2...
I lost alot of text messages the last time I upgraded my Wizard to a new ROM. How do I prefent this from happening again?
Is there a way to export of backup the messages? Or are there any program around that can do this?
cant solve your first problem, but have a suggestion for your 2nd problem... install this cab and sign up for this free service.. it will back up text, pics, contacts, voice notes, etc... its pretty cool
the site for it is http://1800message.com/ but you have to install the cab in order to sign up for the service

Phone goes MUTE. Kindly help

Hi everybody,
I have this one problem. After 2 days of usage, my Hermes suddenly went mute. No vibration or screen click can be heard even If I changed it to the loudest. I missed a lot of calls and sms due to this problem. The only way to solve this problem that I employ is by soft-reset my device.
I really hope somebody can help me tracking to root-cause of this problem and in the same time providing or proposing a solution to it.
Kindly help. Regards

did you unmute it from the speaker icon ?
if you have a backup restore it if not do a hard reset just make sure you backup your contacts/ stuff first
Phone goes mute
I think I'm having that problem too. Just out of the blue it happened. Didn't install anything extra the whole week. But when someone calls it rings, and if it's missed, it doens't play the miss call tone... or any other sound in that case.

Hi,
I noticed that the problem started to happen when I long-press the "Green" Button to activate the speakerphone during a call instead of pressing the "Speaker On" menu on the screen.
I've no idea why but maybe that could be the problem. Presently, I have to press that "Speaker On" on-screen menu to activate the speakerphone to avoid this problem.
Maybe other users can confirm this problem.

Got the same issue here and I don't use speakerphone
my pda´s auto mute so
No sound although speaker icon no in mute
I have the same problem. Out of the blue no sound is heard at all. I tried changing volume but it did not do any thing. Had to shut down (not soft reset) and restart device and it works fine. This happen several times and I can figure out why it does this.
If anyone can help...

Same here, I'm using a X01HT Softbank variant TYTN flashed with the latest HTC WWE rom and after about like 12 hours of use the device goes mute for some reason, making calls it works perfectly but playing sounds or ringers the speaker does not work. Anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking of maybe re flashing the device since most of my information is on my storage card. I'll see if that fixes the problem :-\.
same problem here....
Same here. Only a reboot fixes it.
I have the same problem but it only happens when using the speaker phone. After the call ends, then there are no more system sounds etc. I then have to soft reset, which pisses me off as I use the speaker phone plenty in the car.
If i dont use the speakerphone, then there is no problem. Kind of strange....
Has anyone got any ideas on how to solve this?
I have same problem. I thought it was software related, but seems that it is caused by the speaker phone. I had the exact same problem with my old IPAQ 6515. It must be a software issue with WM although the 6515 had WM2003SE and the TYTN has WM5 so I do not know. Really annoying though as I use this phone for an alarm and it never goes off because the sound turns off sometime while I am sleeping - Uhggggg!
I also have the problem. Only a Softreset brings the speaker back to live.
my new problem...misery loves company
same here; curiously 2 pages into this thread and there are no real solutions.
I have solved the problem on my TyTN.
The Midlet Manager is the root cause for the Phone Mute issue on my device.
lol I just started getting this issue out of the blue after a couple of months and I didn't install anything :|
yeah nothing but a soft reset brings the sound back
Happens to me too. Strange coincidence - I've just checked my m3100 and it's giving me the silent treatment now. Time for another soft reset
I never use Midlets, so that rules the above theory out for me. However my battery was almost dead. I was using WiFi at the time, which turned itself off when the warning notifications popped up. Maybe when the battery drops below an acceptable level it turns the sound off to save power, but doesn't restore it after charging?
nope it happens to me even if my battery is fully charged
this used to happen on my i-mate PDA2k, and my JasJar (Universal) running both WM5, AKU3.2, 3.3, 3.5 and unfortunately even WM6 :S
Hi All,
After checking and testing the phone. I found out that the only way for me to solve the muting problem is by silencing the notification sound when a new email arrives. Since I have an unlimited EDGE/GPRS, my push mail is working around the clock. Thus, by not having the new email sound notify, the muting problem gone. This is caused by the notification event locking up the sound and not releasing it even after I read the mail. Previously the only way to resolve is by soft-reset but now, no more.
I have no idea whether this work or not for others but you might try and post your solution here.

May i know if your phone rom has been changed before? And if u had installed programmes recently?
HI,
No i havnt changed my ROM, nor installed anykind of new programmes. I am using the phone more than 1 year and it has just started this 2 days back.
Yeah i have started charging my phone thru usb (connecting to my laptop) since last 1 week as charging thru mobile charger led to battery drain. Hence i used USB charging since last 1 week.
Also after soft reset it becomes normal but again goes into same problem after few hours.
Please help

I am also using HTC touch in india only...and facing no ringtone or sms sound when it comes (not always but occassionaly) throught the day and i have to soft reset it....
guys please help as coz of no ringtone or sms sounds life is miserable
You might want to try to change your phone rom to see if it will solve your problem because it also updates your radio, this is just a suggestion, i myself is not sure how to solve this problem, maybe someone else in this community might be able to solve it.

No Ringtone when I am called.

I don't think there is a post about my issue. I apologize if I am wrong. (not good at searching in forums).
Anyway I've had my HD2 for about 6,7 months now and I have had no problems. But just recently I have noticed I am getting A LOT of missed calls. And sometimes they're very important to me.
So I decided to test it out and call myself. Now the call goes through but there is no ringtone. I looked in the settings and everything seems as it should be, I tried changing the ringtone too and a couple settings. The System volume and Ring volume are both at Max. I can recieve messages fine and there is a tone. It's just calls that are my main problem.
So I am not sure how to overcome this, please let me know.
Thanks in Advance.
Had this problem yesterday. even soft reset didnt help.
And then suddenly it started work again.

[Q] Viber speaker phone always on -[ROM]【5.0】Google Play Edition【LRX219】-12-24-2014
@Danvdh and team
Simply thank you for this gift. I have on issue with Viber app that I like to share:
I am using the ROM from this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353
Clean installed with TWRP with phone setup as new.
1. When I call someone through viber app and or receive a call through viber, speaker phone is always on and I cannot turn it off. Has anyone else have this issue and resolved it or is it some settings that I may have mistakenly ticked off?
See the attached screen shot of the viber call and you will notice that the speaker icon it greyed out and it is always greyed out. I cannot turn it off as it is greyed out.
Please help????
Apologies to bump my post here.. this is an issue here and I am hoping some one can help me. Any viber call is always on the speaker phone. How can I make viber call normally please.
Mobile phone calls work perfectly,
quick workaround

Hello, hannah187. I had the same issue. Just reinstall Viber and the problem will be gone. I just don't know for how long.
I'm a bit worried because I've never had such problem with the stock ROM. It's important to keep this topic alive until we have a real fix.
Thanks.

First of all, my issue is fixed now but strange fact is I did not reinstall viber. It's just fixed now. I understand that code does not lie so perhaps I have changed some settings which may have fixed it but honestly I do not know.
I know that when I did a clean install of this ROM, viber was working correctly and I have checked it. After couple of days, I can no longer make viber call through ear piece. I only can use speaker phone.
I do not think I have changed any settings, but viber now seems to work as expected and I can make viber phone calls normally as well as through speaker phone. I do not know how this has happened.
Well it seems that I have spoken too soon. From last night, viber speaker phone icon is again greyed out, in other words, I can only make the Viber phone calls through the speaker phone and no ways to disable it. Back to square one.
Happy New Year, @Viber Team!
???????????????
funny that ...is that going to fix it
Hi.
I have similar issue with the latest version of viber at my samsung galaxy s4 i9505 android 5.0.1
When i receive or make a call with phone NOT viber the speaker turns on itself until i press the speaker two times so i hear the call not from the speaker.
I understand that it was viber fault because when i completely uninstall the viber never had this issue again.
So is there any solution so we can have viber installed without that kind of issues?
