So I noticed that I could no longer adjust volume using the up/down buttons, and it has been coincidental with 7.1.1. I called Google, and they ended up sending me a new phone. The new phone's volume rockers worked (it came with 7.0), but as soon as new versions updated, the rockers stopped working! Has anyone had this same issue? I guess I can call and say I'd like to return the new phone (have not returned my original yet) and get back my $79 fee, but dang, I'd like to be able to adjust the volume. Stumped. Any suggestions?
Solved
Well, I didn't search hard enough. Was able to find online that someone had the same problem. The issue is with Talkback app. Solution is to disable it, and volume buttons work again.
Might have been hardware

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...
Hi,
i have a serial problem. I can't hear the ringtone at all. Everything else is working.
If i try to switch the volume slider it seems that the volumes will be increased. but nothing happens. If i open the volume slider again the volume is set to 0 again. I don't understand why. I have a short time ago done a complete hard reset and installed a German T-Mobile image from the ftp area. And i believe the device was fallen down so there was a problem at all with the internal small speaker which is now working again. I hope i don't forget anything about the device and what i have done in the past.
And Yes i have done a search and i found something but not for the Magician so it wa snot helpful.
Thanks
figured it out
I found a thread in the froum which i not put attention on. It was a problem with the newest T-Online German Image.
I switched back to an older one now it works again.
I upgraded to dcd's 2.2.6 rom. and new radio. Now the only control of any volume I have is when I'm on the phone. I can't adjust the volume for anything else (alarms, rings...). When I attempt to change the volume whil the phone is ringing, it just stops the ring all together.
I searched and it brought up the list of changed items in the release of each ROM, with Volume tweak. What is the Volume Tweak? I searched through my phn and can't find a volume anywhere.
Any ideas?
Reinstalling ROM may fix this problem, sounds like there was something that went awry. I use Vol_WM6.exe on one of my hard buttons to open sound in any app, google it and download.
My volume keeps getting set to silent. As a result, I get no notifications of anything going on with my phone.
A little background first:
This is my second HD2. I returned my first but decided I really liked this phone after all.
I do NOT have BsB tweaks installed. I think there is an option to kill ringer based on calendar with this app.
I installed PocketShield thinking it would lock the screen when placed in my pocket. The thought was that the volume rocker was getting hit before it locked if I forgot to manually lock the phone. Didn’t resolve my issue.
Last night I installed VolumeX. This allowed me to remap my volume rocker buttons. At least now I know it’s not the volume rocker getting bumped.
So this morning on my drive into work it happened again. I checked the phone before I left and it was in vibrate. When I got to work it was in silent. The only thing that happened on the drive was that it attached to my car Bluetooth. But I’ve had this happen on multiple occasions without the Bluetooth piece.
Any thoughts on why this might be happening or things to check would be appreciated.
You aren't hitting vibrate then setting the phone down immediately on it's face are you? I've found that setting it on it's face before it's locked launches things...
I do believe it's the bluetooth that'll be doing that. Connecting and disconnecting bluetooth headsets and car kits changes the sound profile - annoys me too, but I'm pretty sure it's standard for WinMosince my Omnia and Titan did the same thing IIRC.
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!
help!

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.
