I have a 9005 note 3. I installed lollipop on it last week, the volume on my ringtones and media is quite low. I didn't notice it when on kitkat before I updated to lollipop. Has anybody else had this problem and how to rectify please.

Tried to change in settings?
If rooted look for an app to boost the ?.
No, I don't notice any change from KK!
If you can root then you can install a custom kernel, and then you can change the speaker's output dB to whatever value you like.
OK, thanks, I will look into the best and easiest way to root my phone.

Check if Adapt Sound if on. Sometimes the sneaky bugger gets turned on by itself after an update, and that thing messes with the volume.

This just started happening the other day. Randomly during the day it will not allow me to adjust the volume ( ie from vibrate to loud). The status bar moves when i move them but it doesn't actually do anything. Also when this starts happening, voice input no longer works. I cant do voice text voice searches etc etc.
I have to shut it down and restart it, then everything will work again. But it only lasts for a few hours and then i have to do it again.
I am stock and not rooted.
Thoughts?
It doesn't happen to me on my modded and tweaked Slim Bean Beta2. I would recommend doing a factory reset and see if that fixes your problem.

Maybe you have apps installed that control or manage audio

Could i use this backup utility found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36499906
factory reset my phone and then install that backup or would that defeat the purpose of resetting it.
I am not a pro at this obviously, i just do not want to lose all my apps and settings i have. Or would they just reinstall once i linked the phone back to my google account?

I did have one, but i uninstalled it and still having the same issues.
I'm having the same issue, stock ROM rooted with franco kernel.
Not only that, but the volume gets very low almost inaudible and I end up having to reboot the phone.
I don't have any audio apps installed, noticed this while watching YouTube.
Thus far have not found a solution

I wish I could help but mine is doing the same thing. I'm on CM11 nightly though so I thought it might be that.
Any help out there?

Have you guys tried a full wipe with a factory reset? Also testing the device before bringing back any apps you have backed up? Sometimes you do a full wipe only to bring the problem back with a backup.

My phone is having the same issue. I've rooted and installed many different ROMs. The last one I tried called Beanstalk installed with all the sound working properly but on the first reboot, the problem came back. I tried wiping an re-installing but the problem is still there, so it seems to be the luck of the draw. There is an app called Soundabout which you can install to route the sound to the speakers, but you would then have to go into the app to route the sound back to the headphones when you need. Very strange. I've seen many posts on different boards of people with the same issue but no true fix. I need to find a good android developer who knows the code well that could probably figure this out...but who that man could be I just don't know...
Are you still facing the problem?
Hi everyone
So I update my N9005 to the official polish kitkat firmware and I've been experiencing episodes of screen unresponsiveness very often. Anybody else has this problem? Anybody managed to fix it?
P.S I'm aware of the counterfeit/unoriginal s-view flip covers issue which I'm having as well but the thread isn't about it.
Hope someone has a solution.

Hello, I have been experiencing moments of "freezing" or unresponsiveness as well.
For me, it seemed to be due to chrome or using power saving mode. (People in another forum were blaming their droid maxxs freezing problem on chrome) I disabled chrome and disabled power saving mode.
Then I started using opera. I experienced another moment of unresponsiveness using opera without the power saving mode.
I was thinking back to the first times that it happened and it seemed to be paired to the wifi download and upload symbol being active in upload and download activity.
I know that correlation does not mean causation, but I think it is worth exploring if the network activity is causing it to somehow hang.
This bizzar occurance made me perform a factory wipe leading to another round of issues involving processing err_0000, but that is another story; sadly, it didn't even fix the issue.
OP, are you still experiencing the moments of unresponsiveness? If you are, have you noticed the events that are correlated with the event?
Has anybody else experienced this or found a remedy?
It could be one of the apps from the play store that is not playing nice with kitkat, but due to the multitude of other issues, I'd say it is a kitkat or touchwiz flaw.
Thanks for any help.

I had an issue with screen not responding sometimes .....I figured out it was due to the flip case (original by Samsung). Although lately I haven't experienced that either.
Try using the original non flip case and see if you still have the issue.

I have never had a s-view flip case on mine. I use holster iblason case that has no interaction with the screen.
This only started for me once I upgraded to kitkat.

If your phone isnt hanging up and freezing, that gives me hope. I'll gsm reset, clear the cache and then flash.

I just cleared the cache, factory wiped, and installed the Russian update N900XXUDNC4 and so far, the phone is a lot smoother. No hangups in the browser yet, but time will tell lol.
It is annoying setting up the phone like new lol. I'll update the post as to if I have moments of freezing or the screen becoming unresponsive.

Cheers mate..do tell me how the battery is..if its good I might flash Russian as well ,currently have but flashed

Had this problem too, as well as lots of lag. Reflashed and did a factory reset. Took care of both.

Battery life is looking good. Power Saving off, bluetooth on and connected to my smart watch.
I made one short call. I don't talk on the phone that much. I mostly use it for Internet browsing, music, and instant messaging/texting. I'll update on Tuesday when I have a full day at school.
Keep in mind though that the n9005 is the lte version. I have a n900, the non lte international variant; our battery life may be different.
Edit: 4/20/2014 same charge 70% 1 day 6 hours bluetooth, wifi, gps, and 1 Gmail account in sync.

Even I experienced the same. My phone came with Kitkat installed. Freezing happens when a webpage is loading or the time i turn on Sync etc. strange thing is phone seems smooter when power save mode turned on.
I think it may be a problem that was not fixed until the March 31st 2014 KitKat build. I have been using Chrome heavily since I installed the most recent official rom; I have not experienced any lag or hanging system wide or in the browser. It reminds me of 4.3.
When I wiped and reinstalled the previous rom, I noticed the lag and unresponsiveness right away.
I'm going to use the browser heavily next week. If I have no issues, I think it may be safe to say that the bug was fixed in the latest kitkat with March 31st 2014 build date.
People with lag, do you have the lte variant or the regular SM-N900? I'm starting to think only the SM-N900 are being impacted by sour Sammy updates.
And if you guys wipe your phones, make sure to turn reactivation lock off because it could cause an error that will not recognize your real Sammy account and password. This phone has become stressful; I'm not updating it again lol

If you're rooted check out Viper4Android, it's a great EQ ago with the ability to boost the volume.
I will check it out, thank you!

Hi, when I'm trying to multitask on my i9505 it turns itself off and goes into bootloop, and will only turn on properly if I have it plugged in.. When it does not it will show only 1 or 2% off battery left even if it was almost full before random reboot occurred.. In using custom Rom slim l.p.. I'd it likely to be a battery problem or rom problem given my troubles above? Just purchased a new battery in any case but I'd like to move back to official sammy software in any case...do I need to do this via odin?I don't mind about root any longer, I don't use apps that require this anyway
I'd also appreciate help finding new sammy firmware, I can barely keep my phone on long enough to search for it!
