Hi all
How do I adjust the volume of a call on loudspeaker ?
Pressing the vol toggle on the side of the phone during the call brings up the system volume slider only.
many thanks

sorry to bump but I could really use some help on this
When i'm in a call , i adjust by lateral volume buttons up and down and it works great ....

what / where are the lateral volume buttons, are they the ones on the side of the phone, if so, they do nothing to the speaker volume for me when im on a call.
can you please clarify, thanks
EDIT: I tell a lie, I have just tried dialling my voice mail, I put it on speaker and tried adjusting the volume. It does seem to work although it wont let me reduce the volume below a certain level. I wonder how my original problem occured then???? maybe its to do with receiving a call.
When I receive a call, the phone screen turns off, so how would I then put the call on speaker ???
Many thanks if you can help
you should tap the "green" YES call button on the left to make appear the screen and select your action like having the keypas to delete a message on your answering machine for example

Press the phone button and the screen will turn back on. You can also use the power button to do this. Once the screen is back on you can select the keypad, put the call on hold or anything else you might want to do while still on a call.

ahh gotcha, thanks bugs.
Is there any way to re-map the Power button so that we can use it to end a call instead of having to use the End Call soft button?
I don't know how many times I've finished a conversation, pressed that button only to realise that the person I was calling can still hear me as pressing the power button didn't hang up like it does in WM6.5 and Andriod.
Thanks for any help
The camera button does me, I keep loading the camera when I want to make a call haha

That's not possible because WP7 only supports 5 buttons > Camera, On/Off, Windows, Back and Search. There's no way to remap the keys (for now).
On the HD7 does the power button hang up the phone? I tend to cuss and swear quite a bit when I am alone in my car. The thought of a client hearing me because I did not hang up the phone properly really worries me.
I wonder if a custom dialer can be developed for WP7 that would support the hw buttons.
Some of you might have noticed a small amount of lag when you press the homekey. I certainly did, especially coming back to Touchwiz form AOSP based ROMs. Well don't worry, theres a easy way to fix it!
The problem is S-Voice. Notice when you double tap your home button S-Voice will open. Thats where the Lag comes from. The Note II is looking for a second press on the homekey. So sadly, if you still use this feature then im afraid your stuck Sorry, but for those that don't your in luck!
Its simple, open S-Voice and go to -
> Menu (For those of you that don't know how to do this, or are maybe a little stupid, press the menu button - left of the homekey. If you still handle it, I recommend returning your device for a calculator)
> Settings
> Un-tick the 'Open via the home key' option
> ...
> WIN.
Please remember to click the thanks button!
Sorry if someone has already made a thread about this. Couldn't see one anyway.
People that use Go Launcher don't use the home key so much.
We use the one thing I love with Go. We just strike the thumb up.

I think this is common knowledge in Samsung phones by now. There's something to note...
There's a side effect to to turning off that option:
If you disable "open via home button", then the phone will kick you to the home screen when you press the home button to turn the screen on (before it gets locked.)
In other words,
Say you're reading something, the screen times out and turns off (but not locked yet), you press the home button to turn the screen on again, you are taken to the home screen.
It's an unfortunate side-effect, but seems unavoidable (save for using a different launcher).
So if you press the home button, you are taken to the home screen?
Who knew!!

Read my post again and try to understand it before you make fun.
Here ill explain again in layman's terms:
*With the open via home button option ticked:
Scenario : when the screen turns off, you press the home button to turn it on, the screen turns on and you're still in the same app where you left off.
*With the open via home button unticked:
Scenario: when the screen turns off, you press the home button to turn it on, the screen turns on and you are kicked from the app you were in back to the home screen.
That's not how it's supposed to work. If the screen turns off, pressing the home button should only turn it on without kicking you back to the home screen.

I see what you mean. I apologise if you thought I was making fun I was not ... Anyway that could be seen as a good and bad thing. The home button is meant to go to ... well home so that does make sense really. It would be nice to have a option for this actually.

Sorry bro, mine doesn't work that way. With the open via home unticked, mine just wakes it up. If I'm in gmail, lock the screen, then hit home to wake it up, I still end up right back in gmail.
All these things are already known guys.
..It does take you to home screen
So you should use the power button to wake up screen. . You will go back to where you were before the screen locked

Thanks for that I'm using Nova and mine goes back to home screen, using power button works but isn't as convenient....at least not for an ex iphone user hehe trying to weigh up whether I prefer power button wake up or no lag!

You still don't get it of course the problem doesn't happen if you lock the screen. It only happens if the screen times out automatically by itself and you wake it up before it goes into lock mode.

Best option for me is to disable the option to get rid of the home button lag, then increase time out to something like 1min,so the screen doesn't time out a lot and the problem gets too annoying.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
This is great thank you for finding this it was getting really annoying lagging all the time :good:
Holy crap I totally forgot note 2 had that s voice. Lol
Jokes aside in rather content with the lag as long as it didn't bring me to home screen when I wake it up sleep though

Or you can just set the screen lock time to immediately =)

Then you'd have to unlock the phone every time the screen times out, which is equally as annoying, more so if you have a pin set up to unlock
I can't believe people still use the home button at all, with apps like "swipe pad" where one action takes you from the screen you are on to the app you want.
Set one pad as your launcher if you need homescreen.
Fill the horrid home button with glue for all i care.

I only use swipe to unlock so i still think it is better than going back to homescreen
After installing home2shortcut the home button doesn't respond as well. There is a slight lag and I have to press it a bit forceful to get it to work. Not as sensitive as on my s3. Anyone experience the same?

ROM: Cyanogenmod
Android OS ver.: 4.4.2
Device: Nexus 4
Apparently, using CleanMaster to clear up RAM and locking my phone at the same time is a bad combination.
My Nexus 4 is now bricked somehow.
I remember my battery is about 60% and above.
My "Hold" button is broken so I used Cyanogenmod's double tap on status bar to lock screen function mostly.
The "Hold" button will work if I pressed the "Sweet" spot.
I tried calling my Nexus 4 and there's a dial tone but my Nexus 4 do not have any indication that there's a call.
No vibration or ringtones.
There isn't any LED light indicating my phone is in critical state.
I believe my Nexus 4 is still "Online" as I still can call it.
Please help! What should I do now? I think I'm the first one to have this problem.

Well, I don't know if i'm pressing the "Sweet" spot but I tried holding for more than 60 seconds. Nothing happens.
I think my phone is having CPU or RAM lock?
Any more ideas to force reboot my device? :crying:

I've tried and held it more than 60 seconds again.
both holding Volume up + Power and Volume down + Power doesn't work.
Thanks for the suggestions though!
I'm still confused.. why did this happened? :l
Oh.!!! After constantly pressing volume up and down with power button and power button alone.
I couldn't tell if my phone had shut down, I tried calling my phone and there was no dial tone!
I tried powering on at the same time and a logo on the screen came up!
My phone is working fine now!
Lesson learned: Do not Clear RAM with Clean Master and lock screen at the same time.
Current Battery Level: 25%
Thank you all!
