Hi to all,
I have noticed a big drop in ringtone volume if music is playing when a call comes in.
It is so low that I can often not hear the ringtone at all. This is with it set at maximum before the turning on the music. Attempting to Change the media volume makes no difference in the ringtone volume.
If I switch off the music then test by calling the phone, the ringtone comes through the headset at full volume. Turn on the music and try again, I can barely hear it.
I can only tell by the muting of the music as the call comes in. Notification volume seems unaffected.
Have any of you noticed this issue as well? Any fixes?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
For an incoming call the ringer volume is 0 but vibrates, the system volume is at 100%
When listening to music through my headphones and I receive a call the music stops in my headphones, then comes through my phone speakers for about half a second then stops - then I take the call.
Its a bit embarrassing for me at work when music is played so loud for just half a second when this happens.
Just wondering if anyone else has seen this issue?
Thanks
Matt
Hi,
I've just setup my phone to use my mp3 as a ringtone. It plays fine on an incoming call, except:
1) It plays at full (ie. scare the sh#t out of me FULL!) volume even with my volume control is set to very low
2) It always plays through the loudspeaker, rather than through the headphones when I have them attached
Is there some settings that I missed?
thanks
fixed problem 1
Hi again,
I'v figured out that problem one was my mistake: I simply missed the volume slider for the 'phone' part when I adjusted the volume for the overall PDA. So problem 1 is 'fixed' now, sorry
Now for problem 2:
> 2) It always plays through the loudspeaker, rather than through the headphones when I have them attached
I've found out that the ringtone actually does play through the headphones when they're attached (the loudspeaker was too loud before for me to hear the ringtone through the headphones), but it also plays through the loudspeaker as well.
ie. with headphone attached, on an incoming call, the ring comes through both my headphone and the PDA's loudspeaker.
So, is there a way to have the ringtone play only through the headphones (and not through the loudspeaker) if the headphones are attached? And only have the ringtone play through the loudspeaker if no headphones are attached?
thanks again
Hi all,
I have a slight problem with my JASJAR, most times somebody calls me, I miss the phone call most times because I don't hear the phone ringing. I have sorted that out 90% of the time by making it vibrate and ring.
Anybody got a nice loud ringtone but funky? So I can hear it better? Or possibly a solution? I mean I have got all my volumes up on full. When I play music with Windows Media Player, it is nice and loud. Is there a way to get the ringtone the same volume?
Thanks.
get an audio editor for your pc (e.g. Audigy) and raise the base volume in the file.
Thing is, I play the file in Windows Media Player and its at a nice loud volume, now why cant the phone ring at that same volume, its all on max volume. Really sux

You may have set the system volume as maximum and not the phone volume?

Yeah I tried that too, I put everything as high as it can go, I jus dnt understand why, even when I choose the ringtone from the drop down list, its softer when I hear the preview of the selected file. In Windows Media Player with nothing changed its louder. Oh well.
I use Alice Cooper's Poison as a ringtone, preamped it in Windows Sound Recorder before transferring it as a wav to the phone - it's nice and loud and I have only failed to hear it once when it by some fluke started to ring roughly same time as the song came up on my MP3 player so I just thought I had a slight echo...
lol ok, well ill try amp it then, and see what happens, by how much did u amp it by?
I just did: "Increase volume by 25%" off the Effects menu of Windows Sound Recorder.
After I modified registry to boost up the ringtone volume, I found that the volume of ringtone will attenuate .
I do not mean the ringtone volume fluctuates. I do mean the ringtone music is loud at the beginning, but it goes lower and lower in a short time.
When the ringtone music is short(like some default ringtone), this problem is not very obvious. It is because when the music is over, it will be re-played. At re-playing, the ringtone music is also loud at the beginning, but also goes lower and lower, so short ringtone music seems loud at every moment. However, my own ringtone is relatively long, the problem will be very obvious.
This make me missed many calls as the ringtone volume attenuate make me unable to hear the ringtone (vibration of X1i is also not very good).
Do anyone who suffer from this problem? or it just because of my own X1 hardware or software problem?!
I tried to found some related threads or posts here. I know there are some keys like HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Attenuation to control, but the problems have solved even I followed the setting from those threads or posts.
Could anyone help me?! thanks~
There I am listening to some cool tunes with my G2 and headphones. All of a sudden my ringtone BLASTS out in my headphones as someone is calling.
Can anyone advise how to have the ringtone sound at low volume when wearing 'phones, whilst leaving the ringtone at it's normal level when headphones aren't plugged in?
I could adjust the ring volume manually each time but surely there is an easier way.

Having the familiar problem that notifications sounds are played louder than ring sounds - always!
If i worked in HTC's R&D department, i'd be such a pain in the ar*e, as i'd never let any of this get through to the general public!
Who's testing this stuff?! Monkeys?!!

Go to Settings, Sound & Display and you will find that you can set the volume of Media, Ringtone and Notifications separately (Ringtones and Notifications are under Ringer Volume).
Alternatively, try Toggle Settings from the Market. You can set the volume of Ringtones, Alarms, Media and Notifications independently for each profile, and create a Headset profile which will turn up the Media volume and turn down the others. Unfortunately it is not possible to create an automatic Headset profile so you would still have to select the profile manually.
