Bluetooth volume jumps to 100% - Z3 + 5.0.2

Very odd problem - I have a Bluetooth receiver (Headset+A2DP profiles) in my car which works best with the Bluetooth volume set at ~50-60%. Sometimes my Z3 will remember the previous setting (and I've tried to force it with smart connect) but often, and every time when i fire google now, it will jump back up to 100%.
I can't find anywhere in the setting to lock the bluetooth volume (either for this particular device, or overall) and restarts and clearing the audio settings cache haven't had any effect. If anyone has come across simiar, and hopefully solved it, I'd appreciate some advice.

Unfortunately changing the Google Now settings had no effect. I tracked this app down which lets you set the Bluetoth volume separately and it now seems to be stable - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nightshadelabs.bluetoothvolume so hopefully this might help someone else if they have a similar issue.

My CPU usage jumps to 100 % when I use iTunes 10.6.1 -using Windows XP Service Pack 3

When I open itunes 10.6.1 my CPU usage jumps to 100%. it started doing this about 6 months ago when I updated itunes.

This helped me. You should try it. Now I can run itunes or Safari and my CPU usage is around 22%.
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Iphone 4s bluetooth volume problems through Alpine HU

Having trawled through numerous reports of bluetooth problems with the 4S I have not found one which replicates my issue although I could have missed it.
Essentially I think my query boils down to " Does the 3GS output music, via bluetooth at a higher level than the 4S, assuming both using IOS5.0.1" .Because my new iphone 4S is much much quieter than my old 3gs and I want to establish whether this is a software problem or a faulty unit.
For the last couple of years I have been using a 3GS which paired perfectly with my Alpine CDA-9887/Bt400 stereo in the car, handled calls well and when playing music via the bluetooth input ( which it did exceptionally well) it was at the same sound level as the other inputs for a given vol setting, i.e. I could switch from radio, to disc to bluetooth withouth changing the volume.
Having just changed to an iphone 4S I have found that although the unit pairs ok and seems to handle calls well enough (although rather mushy sounding compared to 3GS) it is very quiet when using the ipod function via bluetooth.
Volume and sound quality are very subjective I realise but to give an indication of the problem, the Alpine head unit has a volume scale from 0-39. On all inputs (except with the 4S) a volume of 5 is fine for spoken voice, 12 good for music on the move 21 is very very loud pushing the cars speakers to the limit. These levels are approx the same when playing music through an iphone 3GS and an ipod touch via bluetooth.
By contrast the iphone 4S is inaudible at vol 5, needs 20 to be listenable to on the move and even at vol 39 sounds thin and about as load as a 3GS at vol18 so ful vol not possible from my iphone 4S
The main problem with this is that if you are listening to music from the iphone 4S then switch to the radio without remembering to drastically reduce volume it is likely to result in damage to the speakers and/or your eardrums. The problem is compounded as I use the TomTom app regularly and this exibits the same problem, the volume needs to be very high for instructions and then if I change input to listen to the news....ouch.
I have tried 2 iphone 3GS's and an ipod touch on this Alpine unit and they all work perfectly, being able to maintain the same output for a given HU vol level as the radio etc. I have tried increasing the bluetooth volume on the 4S handset, have tried clean restore to see if there is some obscure problem with my backup all to no avail.
Has anyone upgraded from a 3GS to a 4S and found the music level in a car via bluetooth much quieter, the same or louder and does this sound like a hardware problem.
thanks.

Funny Apple told me to eat **** and call my car place.
HELP !!!
It’s not like we are working with Samsun here. They should have thought it out fixed all the bugs then went ahead. I am...... ******! My 3 week old Volkswagen Tiguan no longer plays my MUSIC nor my Audible. Its so not ok. This is a breach of contract. I am told by apple you don’t have to update but my carrier said just the opposite our phones will not work without the updates...
Apple get you crap together, I had such respect you. You have let a lot of apple fans down.

Lost ability to control bluetooth volume with iOS 4

I have an iPhone 3Gs and upgraded to iOS4 last night. Everything works well except that I can no longer control my BlueAnt V1 bluetooth volume via the headset or the iphone. I have re-booted the phone, re-paired the headset to no avail. The volume control works fine for speaker and phone directly, but stays on high with the bluetooth... Any other suggestions? Is it just a new software glitch?

Did you only try re-pairing your did you delete the old pairing first.
Try deleting the old pairing in both the phone and the BlueAnt, restart both devices and then try re-pairing the two together.
In the iPhone to delete the pairing;
Settings - General - Bluetooth - Select the blue arrow of the device - Forget this device
To restart the iphone, hold home/sleep buttons together until you see the swipe to turn off and do that. The turn the phone back on.
You'll have to look up your user manual on how to delete the pairing in the BlueAnt.
Hope this is a help

Setting Default Bluetooth Volume

I have a Storm 9550 from Verizon with Version 5.0.0.607 software and use a Jawbone 2 bluetooth. Whenever the bluetooth is disconnected from the 9550, upon reconnection the volume is at the lowest possible level. There was a setting I used previous that allow me to set the default bluetooth volume at the maximum level. I cannot find that setting any longer, or the new software does not allow that option. What can I do to increase the default volume on my bluetooth?

"Same issue" thinking is with the devices and OS not the same.
One fix for one device with one OS will not necessarily be the same fix.
Please in the future open a thread specific to your issue instead of adding to a previous thread unless all the specifics are in fact the same (Device and OS)

Why dose my strokeweight jump to 100 00 pt, when I'm choosing for example 1 pt?

Hi,
First of all, I do have to say, that getting in contact with Adobe System Support, is far from what I do call service :-(
I have this problem in Illustrator CS6. When I try to choose stroke weight, for example 1 pt.., the weight indicator jumps up to 100 000 pt.. and the stroke too!!!
I really do need help soon, because this have been a problem for a several months now, and I'm not able to work.
This is what I have tried already, that doesn't work:
Reinstalling the Illustrator hard wear.
Trashed the Illustrator Settings map.

Thank you for your quick answer!
Best Regards,

Bluetooth volume not working after last firmware update

After the latest firmware update I'm not able to adjust the volume. Both when i use the volume rockers on the side, or try it via settings, the indicator shows changeing volume - but there are no difference. VERY ANOYING!
any solution planned for att this issue?
Edit; just notice that the bluetooth volume is working on headset but not on devices with only media playback. (Working with SBH20 but not with AV-receiver or bluetooth speaker)

I can confirm that my Z2 bluetooth volume control stops working when i use it with my logitech bluetooth speaker.
Bluetooth volume control does not work when I use Spotify, TuneIn Radio Pro, SoundCloud or Walkman. However the seemingly same bluetooth volume control works when I use Poweramp.
At first I tought that the problem was related to streaming music but since the Walkman bt sound volume does not work on local media files it is not the case.
The bluetooth volume control works with my Nexus 7 and Lumia 1020.
Does anyone have heard from Sony regarding this issue?

How to reduce the size of volume jumps

I love my itouch gen 5 but the size of the volume jumps annoy me. They are too large. On say 5 bars, the music is not loud enough, the next bar up, too loud.
I have found a simple solution (which didn't show up on google). Just go to settings, music, turn volume limit on, and set the slider to somewhere near the middle (as least this works for earpods). Now the volume increments are working to a much lower total volume and you get finer increments.
I thought this may only affect the standard music app but no, it seems system wide, including spotify.
Maybe I'm dumb not to figure this out earlier but anyway, thought I would share.

Mara,
you can reduce the size of the portlet customizing the HTML
code... i had the same problem and i reproduced the search
portlet with a dynamic page, customizing my HTML and using the
categ. & perspective IDs of the original portlet. It works but
is not an elegant way to do this... i'm searching a better way
to do it. If you'll find, please let me know....

Plugging in Hauppauge HVR950Q tv tuner causes volume jump

Hi all,
I noticed bizarre behavior recently with my Hauppauge WinTV HVR 950Q USB tv tuner. If I plug it into my laptop (thinkpa x61) while music is playing, the volume jumps up to 69%. I've done it with alsamixer open, and sure enough, the master volume bar goes up. If I set the volume above 69% before plugging in the tuner, it gets pulled _down_ to 69%. Nothing happens when I unplug the tuner. Any idea what might cause this? Or how I could investigate?
It's not a problem, but seems like bizarre behavior.
Thanks in advance,

Midi Volume Jump

I am having an issue with my midid tracks that involves the volume jumping to +0.4 no matter where it is set. Even if it's automated it still jumps even though the automation line shows no increase.
It might be related to the sustain pedal but it's not consistent with the sustain activations. If I copy the midi info and put it in a new region the problem seems to go away. Anybody have this experience or know why it might be happening and how to make it stop?
Thanks.

The hyper draw helped with tracks that have midi info in them, but the volume also jumps in spots where there is no info so it's impossible to check anything in hyper draw. If I'm in record mode but only listening on input as the track plays it will still jump, which is the most frustrating part. What do you mean by deleting all the info in the event list? ALL of it? won't that get rid of the notes that I want to keep?

Bluetooth volume low with new ios4 update

I can hardly hear the notifications on my Bluetooth now. It's at normal volume when I send a message but if I recive a email or text the volume is very low yet I have all volumes up all the way. Is there a new Bluetooth volume I have to turn up with ios4? Or is it that another update screwed with the Bluetooth again. Was working just great befor I updated to ios4. Please help I'm missing lots of emails and notification. Thanks!

It's not so much of a volume issue it's more like the Bluetooth update has made it so that text alerts and such are not making a sound because it transmits too quickly now to the Bluetooth device. For example I can hear my Bluetooth click on for the alert but the iPhone has transmitted the alert too fast for the sound to come. I get the alert about 1 out of 5 times. Yet the only way I'm able to know I get alert is like is said cuz I hear my device click on for the sound. Don't get me wrong though the update to the Bluetooth technology is great cuz it has faster audio with video and iPod and other things. It's just this bluetooth text and email alerts are not working properly. The ringer works great for calls too actually better with the new update cuz I now get the song transmitted to my bluetooth not just the standard beep anymore which I like.

Apps and bluetooth volume

My bluethooth headset volume is fine when I'm using it to make calls. I have two streaming audio apps, Pandora and TuneIn Radio (latest versions of both). The volume of those two apps is fine through the phone's speaker, but it is ridiculously low with the bluetooth headset, even when I turn up the volume to maximum on both the headset and the phone. The bluetooth volume with apps is far below the bluetooth volume for phone calls.
Is there a fix for this? The phone is a 9670, and it's software version is 6.0, if I'm reading it correctly.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello deanb,
Bluetooth headsets are mainly designed for usage with phone calls, not usually radio applications.
Have you tried contacting the vendor of the application for compatibility with Bluetooth devices?
Have you tried Bluetooth stereo head phones?

I think I have this proplem , and it's a pain in the nick ... I just bought my laptop 3 weeks ago , from the first time using my laptop , the battery gauge was jumping from 100% to 95% and after 2 weeks it's jumping from 100% to 94% , any solution for this , if there is a proplem in the battery maybe I can return it and they well give another on because it's under warranty .. so what do you think I can do .... also I just did a calibration to my battery but nothing happend still the same proplem ...!!

I would run a battery check first to see if it give a status (Replace) for the battery or under warranty Failure Id for the battery. Steps are below to run the battery check....1. Click START and select HP SUPPORT ASSISTANT...2. On the HP Support Assistant window, select Troubleshoot, and then select POWER,THERMAL, and MECHANICAL....AND LAUNCH BATTERY CHECK... If you get a failure code..PLEASE CONTACT HP FOR A REPLACEMENT.. I hope this information is helpful.....

Where has Bluetooth volume level gone?

I think this may be a general Lollipop issue rather than a Spotify issue, but I'm hoping someone can help me either way! My Samsung Note 3 has just updated to Lollipop, and I noticed Spotify was much quieter in the car over Bluetooth than before. So I adjusted the volume on the phone, and although it made a difference, it was adjusting the 'Media' volume, not the Bluetooth volume. Has the independent Bluetooth volume level been removed from Lollipop? Is the Bluetooth volume now just linked to the standard 'Media' volume, like it was before KitKat? Or is this something specific to Spotify? Do others with Lollipop still have a separate volume level for Bluetooth audio? Thanks!
