So I have noticed for some reason on my phone when ever I hang up a phone call my phones automatically goes into silent/vibrate mode and I have to manually turn the sound back up has anyone else noticed this issue
Mine has done it before. I don't know what caused it, but did a factory reset and it worked for me.
Speaking about volume, I noticed that when I hook anything to the headphone jack, I have to put the volume on the phone 100% to hear anything. Anyone else experienced this?
Update: I use PowerAmp as my music player and I had to enable an experimental option called hires output and that made the volume increase to what appears to be normal levels as opposed to having to increase the volume to 100%.

This one has been bugging me for a while and for the most part I've just worked around it (by manually triggering the bug/fix myself first).
The situation is that X1 starts off at a particular volume level, and I start listening to music via PocketPlayer though from what I can tell it happens regardless. It sounds "ok", but noticeably flat? I dunno like a mono audio file even volume turned up, although I can't confirm that. Just describing.
OK the bug - if some kind of event happens, the volume suddenly jumps up, without actually changing the setting. So I'll be listening to music and if one of the following occurs:
1. receive or send an SMS/MMS
2. I toggle the phone function, i.e. turn off phone radio. when I turn it back on the volume doesn't change
the volume jumps up, and I have to say the music sounds much better. On the flip side, when the phone happens to ring, it's loud as hell, distorts like hell and annoys everyone in the process. The ringtone volume just sounds over-the-top.
Now I'm pretty sure it's not the music player because #2 (toggling the phone) seems to affect the volume already. The message box alert sound on toggling the phone seems louder the second time.
Anyone have or notice this issue?
The only volume threads I find are all about a low constant volume and don't sound like this one. FWIW I did try the reg changes anyway. It still varies.
I am on the latest Trigger (Rom) and have had the same problem since build 12.
Basically my in-call volume (only while in call) has these massive jumps when adjusting the volume.
It sounds the like the following (highest to lowest) while using headset.
- Too low, too low, too low, Loud, Too loud, Ear Shattering +
The red flag, since build 12 was a crackling sound is heard where the headphones are inserted.
I have tried different Roms and this is where I am most happy. I posted in the the forum section with no real luck.
I tried the paid version of Voodoo sound and it adjusted the music volume but it seemed no changes were made to in call sound.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The only thing I can think of is if you are holding the volume button then it will fly to min or max. Try single pressing the volume up or down. Just a thought.
Yeah, I noticed the same problem today while on the phone. Didn't really think too much of it, but its def a rom problem if you are also having the issue on redux.

I have two issues with my Nexus 4. I searched google and the forums for these issues and couldn't find anything related. I am running stock 4.2.1 with root.
Issue 1: My volume always resets. I use the volume rocker or go to settings and mute all the sounds on my phone. As soon as I get either a notification or a call (something that would produce a sound) the volumes are back at their stock positions. I have no apps installed that mess with volume or any kind of 'do not disturb' type apps. I use the stock Messaging and GMail apps. This is very annoying because I can't just put my phone on silent and expect that it will stay there. So I have to power my phone off while I'm at the movies, meetings, etc. Anyone else experiencing this or have an idea what could be causing this? Should I try a factory reset?
Issue 2: I just noticed my phone isn't recognizing when I plug in 3.5mm headphones or speakers anymore. It's been since mid December since I've used headphones with it. Today, I plugged in some 2.1 speakers to play some music and it would only come out of the external speaker on the phone. I then tried to use the headphones I was using a month ago and it also didn't recognize them. Could this just be a software issue or should I RMA?
My phone is in mint condition. Never dropped, never had liquids on it, etc. If anyone could provide me with some suggestions for troubleshooting these issues I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
Hi.
I had this weird problem earlier today which was solved the same way it occurred; it just happened for no apparent reason. So I was listening to music through my earbuds and its volume controls were working fine. After a while I noticed that the volume wouldn't increase when I clicked the volume up button, but it would decrease when I used the volume down button. So I unlocked my phone before trying to adjust the volume using the earbuds and for some reason volume up turned on Google Now instead of turning up the media volume.
I tried to uninstall updates and turn off Google Now but that didn't help, I also restarted the phone which didn't help either. After I managed to deactivate the app the volume up button didn't give any response at all.
So I ended up just leaving it like that, but when I tested it a few minutes later it worked fine again! Just like that. I didn't do anything! I was listening through Spotify like I always do.
What kind of sorcery is this?
Has anyone else experienced a problem with the volume lowering by itself as you exercise? Twice I've been jogging and for no reason when I am halfway through my routine with every step I take the volume starts to get lowered by itself (and no I am not touching the volume or any other button). Every step will lower the volume one notch. I will raise it manually and it happens again. I have actually held the phone just lying flat on my hand and it still changes the volume. I have tried going into the settings and playing with it but everything seems normal. I have changed apps from Google Play music to Equalizer +. Nothing works. Currently I am on G935T-UVS4BQC1 rooted. However, I remember this happening once before when I was also on stock non-rooted, so I don't think it's a rooting issue.. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
Mine did this, turned out to be sweat in the wired Samsung earbud buttons causing it. Swapped to bluetooth earbuds and all is well.

Will check on this, but normally I carry my phone in my short's pocket while I run, so not sure it could be sweat. Nonetheless, It's worth a try and a look into the actual cord.
