I am having problems with the in-call volume of my Nexus 4. Say I have it at 4/5, it will remain at this for a while, however, it does not maintain this setting. When I answer a subsequent phone call, the in-call volume will have reset itself to 2/5. It is quite annoying answering a phone call, not hearing the person on the other side and then having to increase the volume again. I actually returned my 1st Nexus 4, however, this problem is now occurring on my replacement phone as well. Would anyone have any suggestions as to what might be causing this problem before I contact Google again. I have not made any adjustments to the OS of the Nexus 4. Thanks for any help!

I have Volume + installed from Google Play and it increases the volume considerably from the speaker, through bluetooth and headsets. If you try it go to settings/sounds/sound effects and choose Volume + instead of Music Fx. I`am using the paid version and it works great for me.

Thanks for your reply. Actual loudness of the phone is not a problem, when the highest in-call volume setting is maintained. However, the phone will randomly reset itself to the 2/5 setting. Over the weekend, I give the Volume + app a try. It has an individual setting for in-call volume, however, the problem still occurs. Do you think the problem is software related and therefore potentially could be rectified by the next major update to be released? I'am worried that I may have to try and return another phone to Google!

Did you ever find the solution? I just got a Nexus 4 and have the same issue. I've been searching like crazy for a solution!

I forgot to say that even though is the same issue, in my case is the other way around. The volume resets to 5/5 even though I change it to 2/5 during a call. The 2/5 setting seems to last only some time but surely after a few hours, when I make or receive another phone call the volume has gone up to 5/5.
I have the same issue. The volume is always to the max. During the call I lower it, because it is too loud at the maximum, but during the next call, the volume is at maximum again. I tried several applications that adjust in-call volume, but it had no effect.

I believe we might have an application installed that's resetting the volume, would you mind sharing the applications you have via private message and then we can check which we have in common and go from there? If you agree I'll send you mine as well.
After several factory resets I finally found out what was the problem. Automatic Call Recorder has an option named Maximize recording volume (or something like that). When I turned off this, the problem was solved.

So, I'm experiencing what everybody else is with this ROM. That initial volume level starts out soft and gradually increases to the max that I have it set to. Some have stated they like this and that's fine. But, I HATE it :evil: . I can never hear my phone ring anymore if it's in my pocket. Has anybody found a possible registry key or setting somewhere to turn this off?
And if any AT&T folks are listening.. I'd like a setting in the volume area to turn this off or on.
Phone Profile
Have you check under phone profiles... Ascending Ring change to Standard Ring
Dustoff
I don't have a phone profile, or i should say i don't see any where for that option. In the phone settings area the Ring Type is set for Ring. There is an option for "Increasing Ring" but that's even worse than it is already. I don't think this is what I'm looking for.
Since the WM2003 upgrade on my SX56, 've noticed issues with the speakerphone volume. I can barely hear it in fact. Any thoughts on this one?
Fiddled around with the volume setting, moved it up and down, and the now the volume issue seems resolved. Can't say for sure if that's what resolved it, but it's fine now.
I'm experiencing the same problem with the AT&T rom.. I'm going to take a look around in the registry later on... before I go installing any apps
Well I have taken a look @ the processes running and can't see anything obvious that would be doing the volume thing..
So I have had a poke about in the registry and have found a section with sound profiles and it has an attenuation property, I have tried adjusting this, and deleting it but still no good
Also there is an entry in the registry called Hack and mentioned Vol in the string... but it didn't make any difference when I deleted that either :roll:
If anyone thats a bit more acomplished than myself with the PPC Phone could take a look and find a solution to this, i'm sure many users would appreciated it
Has anyone figured out how to make the volume level constant yet?
Any solutions to get the volume working well on A.30.09 ENG yet?
Nope. I just put my phone volume on next to the top setting and the system volume two levels below it. Works fine then. As long as the system volume is two levels below it will not graduate the sound.

Another thing try ur Reminder set an Alarm you'll notice that you cannot change the Alarm1 ringtone thus the sound stays low ..I tried many things in the registry and no luck as well I wish would some1 help us to resolve this Issue, but!! I made contacts with att's support ,I told them about this problem thus I'm not the only one who's experiencing this, lots of ppl sees this ennoying , I hope they would help here...
Hey everyone this is my first post so i apologise if this problem has been discussed at length already.
Ok so my current problem is that my htc hd2 wont make any sound whatsoever when using the rear speaker (so thats any ringing from incoming calls, notifications, videos, music etc..). I have played with the sound settings relentlessly but can't seem to change its current state and I have also done several hard resets. However, when accepting a phone call or when a pair of headphones are inserted into the handset the sound goes through fine, leading me to suspect that it is the rear speaker which is the problem (My speakerphone after accepting a call also doesnt work).
On two occasions I have been playing music on it in hopes for a sign of life and have had sound on very sharp bursts (no more then 2 seconds). In terms of any programs or updates that I have installed on to my handset I havent done anything but apply the updates from the HTC support website.
The problem ocurred on day 2 of using this handset and I have also sent an email to mobiles.co.uk to ask about a replacement handset. However I was having a lot of fun with this phone and wanted to keep it if it could be solved myself so if anybody has any ideas it would be very much appreciated!
Thanks
Try a hard reset. If the problem persists after that, it's certainly hardware related.
Same thing happened to my HD2 today, all sounds just stopped working for some reason, music player ring tone, notifications, everything, did a hard reset and everything works again, it is a bit worrying when it just happened out of the blue like that.

Did you accidentally turn the volume down using the button on the side of the device? Stupidly, system volume can be adjusted using this button.

Yes it can. It either changes both system and ringtone together (if you only use 1), or you have a tab for both (if you use both volumes), as per the sound and display settings in the settings tab.
No, that was the first thing that I checked, I have the single volume unchecked as well.

I find the single volume the better option, less chance of this kind of thing happening. Other than that, it sounds like you have either installed a tweak or combination of tweaks which are not compatible or you have a hardware fault.
hi guys,
i still have a list of hd2 issue yet to be solve, can any kind soul reply with solutions here in sequence.
1) when i am on my wired earpiece, the volume is so max that it can be unbearable at times. i know i have the volume rocker to up and down the volume to suit my hearing but then if i lower my volume it also carried the low volume to the connected calls. is there a workaround for this?
2)when i am on a connected call, i can hear hissing sound which is so irritating and the other party on my line ask if i'm on speakermode. workaround? volume is soft as well by the way.
3)phone hangs alot and i have to remove the cover and battery, the usual standard procedure. i know it could be manila.exe accumulating resources so high that it can be disruptive. the only solution i have now is restart at periodic time to maintain phone usefulness.
4)Weather not updating.
5)Flash player on HD2 if there is.
i cant think of anymore now.. maybe later..
sometimes when i felt my phone was stable for a few days it hangs unexpectedly. but there so much tweaking that needs to be done on this phone that i have to take a risk bricking the phone. there is really endless tweaking to this phone. imagine if i were to hardreset and reinstall all tweaks and stuffs .. it will be a nightmare when i have gone so far in tweaking it.
thats WM..

soft reset and see again as i don't have this problem. you must adjust the ring not during the phone is ringing but before it tell me if it works

I still have the problem of when i make or receive a call the volume is so so loud even at the min setting.
But today when i was on the phone with my ear drums nearly bleeding....i had another call beeping through (call waiting) and noticed that straight away the volume of the call that i was on decreased to a sensibly level!!
Once i finished the call, i thought it may have been a one off so i dialled another number and then got someone to phone me while i was on the call and yet again the volume somehow dropped to a sensibly level.
Any ideas guys?
If only i could always have the volume like this, this handset would be perfect.
This also happens if your on the phone and get an SMS, HTC have admitted the volume problem is a "known issue" but there is so far no results of them having fixed it.

Incall volume has always been a problem on this device and I think there is another thread related to this issue. It has been noticed that when you are on a call, the volume, evn though on the lowest level is usually way too loud and uncomfortable for the ears.
This might help you as it works for me: while on a call, I increase the volume to max and turn it back down to lowest level. you will straightaway notice that the volume has reduced cosiderably. This has been my "short term" solution until the issue is resolved. Hope that helps.
Hi all,
Does anyone else have this problem, using ZTE's Android 5.02, in which the caller's voice level is too low? I can barely hear a person's voice when I answer/call them. But they clearly hear me.
I've tried a few apps that boost volume, but none of them work.
All other things, ringtone, apps, media, music etc. - the volume is fine.
ZTE had an auto update yesterday, system update, completely fixed the volume for me! Everything is normal and working well now
I have problem with wifi, can't connect! (IP adress = 0.0.0.0) plzzz help!!!

What update are you talking about? I'm also having the "low volume" issue.
thanks
edit: tried the b10 update again and still low volume. So pls help
I have the same problem. The in-call volume gets turned way down for some reason when you answer/make a call.
i don't know why, possibly a bug?
when you next make/receive a call...once connected, take the phone away from your ear & look at it.
press the volume up button and you'll see its at about 25%.
pain in the arse

Hi, turn off the "Dual microphone" setting in the dialer app. This solves the problem.
