4S ringer volume disappears with Bluetooth

My 4S volume intermittently turns itself down when I start up my car, I have Bluetooth. I use 3G. It doesn't do it any other time. I've checked Settings, the volume is on max but when I use the side buttons to see the ringer volume, it shows at zero. I'm missing calls. I've had my phone replaced with a new one but the problem still exists. Any ideas on how to stop this?

Try cleaning the charging dock with a cotton swab of rubbing alcohol--or you can use a blow dryer to blow into the charging dock as well.

8830 Ring Volume Decrease With os4.5

I installed version 4.5 from 4.2 and decreased my ring volume on my 8830. In holster/out of holster is set on high. My wife still has 4.2 so it's easy to compare ring volumes.
Has anyone come accross this problem? Does RIM have a fix or do we just keep missing calls because didn't hear the phone ringing?
Thanks.

How did you figure out this problem? I checked the link you attached to your post, and did what was suggested, but I still cannot sync my blackberry 8830 WE (Verizon) to my Outlook 2007 Calender. It was working fine when I was running version 4.2. I am currently running version 4.5.0.138. My DSM is version 4.3. Everything else syncs fine (contacts, tasks, and memo pad). Please help....... Also, did your BB run slower after installing the new OS? Mine seems to be much slower than before. Any help will be appreciated.... Thanks a bunch.

My keyboard clicks and ringer volume have disappeared. I have tried plugging in the head phones many times, blowing air in the headphone jack, credit card in the charger jack, everything on you tube basically! To no avail! Any suggestions?

Hi Bones777,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you do not hear sound from your iPhone speakers, try these steps next:
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If you still do not hear sound after completing the troubleshooting above, I recommend backing up your iPhone data and restoring the iOS software:

Hi, Derek -
...the screen splits into 4 areas and open windows seperate and shrink.
Sounds like Spaces is being activated somehow. With the wired keyboard and mouse in use, select the Exposé & Spaces control pane in System Preferences, click the choice in that pane for Spaces. See what the settings are. There are some activation settings in that pane - by default, F8 activates it.
It could be that the bluetooth keyboard has some stuck keys and is activating Spaces; or that the activation command has somehow been reset to something that the bluetooth mouse, or bluetooth itself, is triggering.

Ringer volume not in sync with messaging or other alert volume - Verizon Centro

Hello and I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong forum or has been discussed before.
I have the Verizon Centro and have found that when I adjust the ringer volume using the side keys, the text message and any other alert volume stays at whatever I set it at earlier. So if I had previously set it at 7, I can put the ringer at 1 and the message alert is stuck at 7. I would really like to have these both sync with the side keys. Is this possible?
Thank you.

Why I am unable to adjust the ringer volume by the side buttons and there is no ringer with the Mute button OFF

With the mute switch OFF - I am unable to adjust the ringer volume by the side buttons.
When someone calls/texts there is no sound coming from the speaker.
The headphone jack works when I listen to the Ipod and the speaker works when I change the ringer volume through settings. So i know that the speaker does work
Headphone jack seems clean and dust free
I heard that there may be a Skype issue than can control the speaker volume - so i deleted it but i still cannot get any sound from regular functions.
When I play the Ipod through the speaker with no headphones there is no option to change the volume and no sound.
If it works when i go through settings to set my ring volume, my ringtone plays - then why does it not work otherwise?

I have Iphone4s 16GB, IOS7.0.4 updates having a problem , that when i press + or - volume keys while my iphone is ringing my iphone 4s goes silent .
Whereas you know silent key is used to make the ringing phone silent. This button is working ok while only problem is my iphone goes silent while pressing + or - volume keys as these keys should increase / lower the ringing volume . These keys were ok working in IOS 6.
Where as these keys are also working ok in music player of iphone for IOS 7, the only problem is for ringing.

Minimum Ringer Volume with a 7941 - not working

Hi,
As the title suggests, I cannot get the Minimum Ringer Volume setting to work with a 7941 phone.
I have set the minimum volume setting to 7 in the product specific config layout, saved it, applied config and reset the phone. Still i can silence the ringer volume using the buttons on the phone.
Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks,
Don

Your disk is using the Apple partition scheme, and the resizeVolume command will only work on disks using the GUID partition scheme. You cannot change the disk from one scheme to another without erasing and repartitioning it.

Am I the only one having problems with ringer volume since the update?

Am I the only one having problems with ringer volume since the update?? I'm hard of hearing and before updating to IOS7 I could hear my alarm and ringer just fine. Volume is turned up all the way and I've chosen the loudest sounds I could and still having a difficult time hearing.

Annie Hall is available on DVD only.
It is not available for streaming and I believe movies available for streaming are the only movies available with the Netflix app on an iOS device.

Bluetooth turns down ring volume

I have both iPhone 3GS & iPhone 4s both when connected to my Skoda yeti Bluetooth work fine. When I leave the car the ring volume is set to 0. I recently hired a Seat Leon which has the same Volkswagen Bluetooth system. Both phones worked fine and ring volume was returned to the level before.
Any ideas?

Hi there I've been having same problems only after updating to ios5 had phone replaced from apple was fine till the dreaded update according to the so called genius I spoke to it wasn't a phone or software problem wich is totally wrong in my eyes hope this helps

Ringer volume with ear-bud.

It seems that my iPhone 3gs remember the music and On-call volume for headphone and speaker separately.
However, for the ringer volume, iPhone does not remembering separately and just uses same level for headphone and speaker. -_-;
When I adjust the ringer volume with ear-bud attached, volume control pop-up displayed as 'ringer(headphone)' and 'ringer' for the speaker.
But, the volume level is shared between them.
I had done 'reset all settings' from iPhone and the problem is still remain.
Do you guys have any ideas?

Why not control Ringer Volume with the hardware volume control keys vs. finding a touch screen based Ringer Volume?

PSA: in iOS 7.1.1, alert sounds are tied to your media/game volume and not to your ringer volume

I was befuddled by this for a long time.
Alert sounds would just stop making noise. This includes dings from txt messages and new mail.
If I went to Settings>Sounds>Text Tone and select several options, all I would get were vibrations.
I rebooted the phone and toggled the silence switch on and off.
I finally figured out that if I started a game and turned the volume up, the noises would come back.
I think it is reasonable for a user to wish to play a game on mute but still hear alert messages.
I think if we can only have two separate systems for audio control, the alert sounds should be tied to the ringer, not to the media/game sounds.
When I spoke to an apple support person over online chat, they seemed to agree that this sounds like a bug.
I have seen many confused posts in these forums regarding alert sounds suddenly disappearing.
Below is the text that I submitted at http://www.apple.com/feedback/
If you share this problem, I suggest you do the same.
My case number is 606343836
Begin message:
I've had a 5S since a few weeks after launch and this problem has only come about in the last few weeks, so I suspect it has to do with a recent OS patch.
Sometimes my alert messages just stop working. They seem to work one minute, then they stop. Alert messages would include email notifications and txt message pings. When they are not working, I can go into Settings>Sounds>Text Tone, and all of the options will simply result in a vibration and no sound.
Rebooting the phone does not fix the problem.
What I have found to fix the problem is to open a game and raise the volume of the game. Then when I exit the game, alert messages start again.
This seems reversible, if I go back in and mute a game, my alert messages go away as well.
If this is by design, I do not think it should be, as I think it is reasonable for a user to want to control the "media" part of the volume separately from the "ringer" and "alerts" part of the volume. It makes sense to want play a game or video on mute but still get alert messages. If anything, I think the alerts volume should be tied to the ringer volume, I think that would make sense.

Additional info, which makes me think this is a bug rather than a feature. If you go into Settings > Sounds and turn off the "Change with Buttons" option, then the ringer should always ring at the volume of the slider on the screen.
The volume buttons now appear to only affect the media/games volume, and it works as expected EXCEPT:
if you are in a game and you mute the volume in the game, then exit the game, all alert sounds are muted and you can't turn them back up by raising the volume with the volume buttons.
If you go back into the game and raise the volume within the game, then exit the game, then alert sounds do turn back on.
I have tested this with two games from two developers.

Ringer volume on screen always

My ringer volume display won't disappear from the screen

Hi @mentonebob,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you would like to turn the ringer on your HP Photosmart Premium Fax - C309a printer off. I am happy to help you with this issue!
To turn the ringer off, on the printer's control panel, touch the wrench button for Setup, then look for Basic Fax Setup, then look until you see Fax Sound Volume, then select Off.
Hope this is what you are looking for and have a wonderful day!

IPhone 4S ring volume keeps turning itself down

The ring volume keeps turning itself down, I have been into the Settings and turned OFF the "Change with buttons"
and set the volume as high as it will go but after leaving the phone for an hour or so the volume is wound back to
minimum again. Siri is turned off.

Try this... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
