Phone application turns volume down

Hi,
whenever I start a phone call with N900, the volume automatically goes down to lowest (or 2nd lowest). This happens even if before the call I had e.g. Mediaplayer running with highest volume. Not sure whether the same happens when I receive a call, but it's really annoying. How can I set this right? I want every phone call to be full volume.

hello,
@virajx3006: no it doesn't remember the volume setting, i've been beginnig calls by turning up the volume first thing hundreds of times, and i'm pretty sure i never turn it back down before hanging up, so.....
@ elie7: That's not the only BIG BUMMER though, because which way is "voulme up" on the volume rocker depends on screen orientation. When the screen rotates to portrait mode, it swaps the volume keys.
Yeah, i hold my phone in portrait mode when making calls, like everyone else, but sometimes it's slow to rotate or even gets stuck, so it's still in landscape when i hold it to my ear, which means volume rockers reversed... you get the picture: AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGH!

  • Iphone Turning Volume Down by Itself

    So here is my issue. The iPhone will turn it's volume all the way down, by itself, leaving me unable to hear any alerts, phone calls, or alarm clocks. Whenever I use the side volume to turn it up, it will just automatically turn it all the way down. The strange part is that when I use the iPod it doesn't turn the volume down on that. Hence it is basically just turning down general volume (ringtones etc). I am thinking it might actually be a hardware issue. I will do a genius appointment but can anyone give me help/advice? Thanks!!

    Hey, so yea i made some progress with the situation. So i discovered that the top left corner is near the module that controls volume. For example if you press down on it hard your volume will flutter. So if it goes crazy i just tap that a few times and it will usually be okay for a while. However, I figured out the main problem was that steam (condensation) was getting into my phone so now that I stopped having that happen it is much improved. I am debating getting a new iphone cuz it is also my alarm clock and in the middle of the night it will at times turn itself down so...but hey man thanks for responding I'm happy i'm not the only one having this problem. Keep me posted. Take care.

  • IPad 2 Dent, Unable to Turn Volume Down Physically

    I just got this iPad 2 as a present from him. I recently just opened it, and noticed that there is a dent ON the bezel direct center of the volume rocker. I can change the volume up, but i am unable to turn it down without using the multitasking bar. Also, you can get a fingernail in between the bezel and the screen, so in other words, dirt is able to get INTO my iPad 2, literally inside the casing. Would Apple cover this as this was a brand new product purchased March 11th, and was given to me as a present on April 8th. It was still in the shrinkwrap, so i know my dad didn't do it. It seems like a manufacturing problem. Is there anyway i can get it fixed using my Apple care limited warranty? The store won't allow me to take it back as it has been over 15 days.

    The problem is the time frame that you have waited from purchasing to opening the product. But I would present my case to Apple Care regarding the 1 year warranty. Either call Apple Care at 1-800-MY APPLE or make an appointment for the Genius Bar in the nearest Apple Store and explain exactly the situation and ask for a replacement under the warranty. Get names and positions of everyone with whom you speak. If you are unsuccessful on the phone with the first tier agent ask to be transferred to the supervisor. Be firm but polite in insisting that this iPad must be replaced under the warranty. If you have no success, as a final resort ask for your call to be escalated to Apple Customer Relations.

  • How to get my lock button to stop turning volume down then locking, and my side volume button to stop locking my iPod?

    Recently sent my iPod touch 4 generation into a local place for a battery change, and now it's suddenly swapped the lock button and lower side volume button. The lock button now turns the volume down then locks, and the volume button turns down and locks too. Anybody know how to stop this? It's annoying! Thanks for your help:)

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
      If still problem take it back to where you got it fixed. They messed up.

  • Turning volume down on IMAC

    Hey guys i jt bought the new 2.66 ghz imac and i love it. Problem is i cant figure out how to turn the volume down. I hit the F11 and F12 keys and it just brings up like the weather and the time and calendar. I know it sounds dumb but i am new to mac and i cant figure out how to use the volume. any help would be appreciated.

    Hi JD,
    Besides accessing the audio controls from the System Preferences/Sound pane you can change the volume from the Status Menu Bar. (Top right in your screen) There's a small audio icon. Just click that and the slider will be available. If the audio icon is not available there go to System Preferences/Sound. At the bottom of that window select: Show Volume in Menu Bar.

  • IPhone 4S both volume buttons turn volume down.

    IiPhone 4S 16gb locked to EE
    problem is both volume buttons turn the volume down.
    pressing either volume button once brings up the volume window but doesn't increase or decrease the volume
    Holding either volume button will decrease the volume only way to turn it back up is to go into settings or use that access thing (so a circle comes up) not ideal.
    i Have changed the volume flex cable still same symptoms
    i have factory restored it many times still the same
    i have upgraded iOS from ios7 to iOS 7.3 or whatever the latest one is still the same.
    any other solutions? Or fix's?
    Tthanks Nat

    anyone?

  • Can't turn volume down

    The volume on my IPOD classic doesn't turn down far enough.  I think this is a new problem.  Does anyone have a solution other than buying a separate volume attenuator?

    Using the original ipod earbuds yields the same result.  There is a floor on the volumn that prevents turning the volumn down beyond a certain point.  As to your point on other earphones, it's really irrelevant.  If I turn the volume all the way down, the output to the earphones should go all the way to 0, so if my earphones had a built in amplifier (which they don't), it would be amplifying a 0 signal.
    For the EU law, the volume should start at 0, and rise somewhat linearly to a maximum level, and plateau there.  In this case, as we turn the volume down, there is a point at which the output of the ipod does not get any softer.
    So, back to the original question(s) - is there any way to actually turn the volume down to an arbitrary level?

  • I can't turn volume down on Apps

    I Have turned my volume right down but it is still playing music on the apps. I have tryed but nothing works.
    Please Help

    Does this volume adjustment problem also exist when you listen to the shuffle elsewhere than the gym? IF SO, take the shuffle to an Apple Store to be analysed and, possibly, replaced.
    IF the problem doesn't show up under normal conditions (eg out side of gym), then you might have a moisture problem...

  • The iPad mute bell keeps popping up over and over.  It is turning volume down as fast as I turn it up.  I have reset and restored the iPad to the original settings.  Nothing has worked!  Any other ideas?

    The iPad mute button continues to pop up over and over.  If I turn the volume up, I can watch it decrease just as fast.  The icon stays.  I have reset the iPad twice, and have reset it back to manufacturer settings as well.  The problem continues despite my efforts.....any other suggestions?   It is completely upgraded to the newest iOS version. And I was not having trouble before this upgrade.

    If I had it in a case or had my finger on the switch these would solve the issue.  Or, if the mute bell was only coming on when the volume button was pressed, how ever, it is coming on at random times and will go away for a few minutes if I hit the home button, but then reappears.  This seems to be a problem experienced by a lot of iPad users so I have trouble thinking it is a bad switch.

  • Lumia 720 volume down key

    Recently the volume down key on my lumia 720 has stopped working. It works sometimes if I restart my phone but again stops after a while. I am also unable to soft reset the phone because the volume down key is not working. It does not seem like a hardware issue because it works sometimes. Please guide what can be done for this.

    If its a hardware problem then you will need to have it checked out at your local Nokia Care Point. 

  • Why does my ipod suddenly turn the volume down?

    im working out and my ipod nano turns the volume down by itself - i turn it up and it turns it down???

    I had the same thing happen.  Just got off the phone with tech support and I am having to get my second refurbished ipod nano.  I had to pay 65.00 for the first one and now it is doing the same thing!  Since this one was within the 90 days I don't have to pay another 65.00 but if the next one does it again and it's past the 90 days I have to pay again!  The thing is is that my first nano was probably given to some poor chump who's had the same problem and now they have paid their 65 dollars for mine which wasn't fixed.  They told me that they do not do repairs on something this small, so I have to pay for a used one!  It's crazy!  You know if Apple wants to be the best then make your stuff right the first time...and if you don't then don't make me pay to get one that is used and had the same problem!  Buyer Beware!!

  • Iphone 4 ringer volume keeps turning itself down

    iphone 4 ringer volume keeps turning itself down?

    Hi cainstigator,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone's volume setting not staying the way it should, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • My phone automatically turns up the ringer after I turn it down

    The title says it all. My phone will automatically turn the ringer/volume up to 100% after I press the button to turn it down to my desired level. I do have an Otterbox Commuter Series case on the phone, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Why would one button get pressed accidentally when the other one doesn't? Not sure if it's a flaw with my phone or not - any help is appreciated.

    Clean the iPhone charging port with a clean dry toothbrush.
