After using a Nexus 4, Nexus 7, and Galaxy Nexus that use volume buttons with the same layout (when buttons are on top, left side increases volume, right side decreases), switching to the Nexus 10 and it's opposite layout means I keep turning it down when I mean to turn up and vice versa. Is there a way to swap the volume buttons around? I've tried searching, but haven't found anything.
yes that's really strange... i dont know why they have done that... i have got a Nexus 7 too, and it's a bit disturbing

Never enjoyed a phone as much as the note2, I have a couple of minor issues which keep annoying me and for the life of me I cant find a solution with an app.
Issue 1. Ringer volume and notifiation volume not linked. Just spent my entire lunch break, installing various audio/volume apps, to try and link the two together, none can do it. Is this an issue with Jelly Bean?
Issue 2. Vol down button, stops at vibrate...this one is not a major issue as I can simply swipe down the notification bar and unpress vibrate, but not ideal.
If anyone can provide any help, I would be grateful.

The second issue is what other people are experiencing. I think that's true of JellyBean as my nexus 7 does that too. I don't have a note 2 but on my nexus 7 when I hit volume up/down, the volume bar pops up and on the right hand side there's also a settings icon I can press to change the other volumes

Same goes for the Note 2. I have the Settings icon on the right end of the volume bar when I press either volume key.

So I am using paranoid android the latest stable before 2.99 and cannot wake my screen using the Volume Rocker
I have it set to on. and it maybe works within the first 3s after a screen is off but any longer and it wont wake the screen.
I have toggled it off, rebooted; toggeld back on, rebooted. But no luck.
If anyone knows any fixes to this or any tips that would be awesome, thanks.
:what:
Just use the button right next to the volume key. Really its not any different. Works just like the volume buttons. Just apply sufficient pressure as to cause the surface of the key to become flush with the side of the device and you're good to go.

Coming from a Galaxy Nexus, my volume buttons seem incredibly unresponsive and hard to press, especially the volume down button. Anyone else notice this? I'm wondering if it's a consistent hardware issue or if it's worthwhile to try and do an exchange.
Do you mean that the button would not depress, or that you can press the button but the phone does not register the press? If the latter then you must have a defective unit since I can get presses to register every time. I came from a Galaxy Nexus too and while the volume buttons on the N4 have more resistance I don't think they are that hard to press.

The button depresses, but barely, and I have to press pretty hard. It doesn't have the same "click" feedback as most phones -- it just feels like I'm mashing it. I'm guessing it's just my phone since I haven't read anything else about it. Hooray for quality control
Edit: on the plus side, in case anyone else is in the same situation, I just called Google and the replacement process seems pretty painless.
Sorry for bumping a relatively old thread. I'm in the same situation with one of my two N4s. In comparison, the volume buttons on one of the phones are really hard to press. I've called Google three days in a row and they said they would email me the instructions for replacement, but I still haven't received anything from them. I was wondering how long did the exchange process take for you?
I bought the nexus 4 recently and I've been in love with it ever since.
But.
When I play music, the on screen volume controls don't work. The physical keys on the side work fine.
But the on screen volume control defect vanishes when I'm on a call. When im on a call, I can vary the volume on the screen itself.
However, in the settings, I can change the master volume and that's it.
What can I do to make the on screen volume controls work again?
Are anyone else's power and volume buttons almost flush with the side of the phone? They still work fine, but they seem like they don't stick out hardly at all. Maybe I'm just used to buttons that are a lot more noticeable on my N6
