Vibrate going berserk, Headphone/call volume changing itself

I've been having quite a few problems with my phone. I will try and explain as best I can.
1. I keep finding that the vibrate is going mental in my pocket, pulsing. Even if i am not moving so it's not me catching the silent switch on the side.
2. When listening to the ipod, I find the volume either goes to its loudest or quietest. when changing this on the phone i find it just corrects itself to the loudest or vice-versa. This too is mainly in my pocket but also happens when plugged into the aux in my car. This also happens when making calls
3. The phone also sometimes locks itself just after I have unlocked it. Along these lines also, sometimes when i do unlock it, and touch the screen anywhere, it relocks.
4. I will sometimes pull the phone out my pocket and find that the red bar to turn it off is showing, again, I do not see how I can press 2 buttons simutaniously in my pocket.
Its driving me mad, and short of re-booting the whole thing and taking off all my data, I do not know what to do. Anyone else experienced any of these problems.
Thanks

Did you try to reset your phone by holding the sleep and home button until you see the Apple logo? Ignore the turn off slider and keep holding until the logo comes up.
If this doesn't help, restore the phone from your backup, if you had these problems when you made your last backup, restore it "as new iphone".
If restoring brings no change, call Apple to get it serviced.

ITunes volume changes itself / Can't Force Quit.

My iTunes volume changed itself to a third of the way up, and now I can't change it. If I move the volume slider it just automatically goes back to where it was. I also can't force quit iTunes! It even won't let me shut down because of it. Any ideas?

Open Activity Monitor in Application/Utilities. You can monitor your applications there to see how much CPU or real memory they are using. Selecting the CPU column will sort the highest on top for easy viewing. You can also force quit an application in Activity Monitor.
Another option to Force quit is to use the commands. Command-Option-Esc. This brings up a Force Quit window.
Since the symptoms affect many applications, I would first download and install the latest Apple combo updater. They install over the same version and will go back and refresh all files unlike an incremental updater that only adds new files. If the combo doesn't work, you might need to do an "Archive & Install".

Volume changes by itself in the middle of a song!

Hey all
So, I've been having this problem with both my iPhone 5S and 4.
When I listen to a song and I'm NOT using the headset from Apple, the music volume changes itself constantly
If I look at the volumebar, I can see it changes too. I don't have the soundcheck-option enabled and Siri neither as I read elsewhere that they can cause this problem.
I think it might have something to do with the fact that my headphones aren't Apple, so I figure it might be a softwareproblem. But how do I solve it?
I don't have the problem if I'm using other apps that play sound (Youtube, Facebook etc).

If you've tried Apple headphones and they work fine, then I suggest you talk to the company that made your headphones.

Volume changes when headphone are plugged, but not when they are unplugged.

Hi!
Recently I been having an issue with my Macbook Pro 13.
When I connect my headphones to the MBP, the volume changes (as it should be), but when I take them out it doesn't return to normal, it just stays where it was when the headphones were connected.
Now, if i mute my internal speakers and connect the headphones the volume changes, but when i take them off, the volume returns to mute. So the problem is when both (internal speakers and headphones) are set to different volumes.
Here's a video that shows what happens in sound control panel (it's in spanish, "Auriculares"= Headphones and "Altavoces Internos"= Internal Speakers)

Does anyone else have this issue?
Thanks for your answers!
Andrés

Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

Why is the volume changer button up so high on the new apple headphones?

On the newest Apple Headphones, I was wondering why the headphones volume changer button so high. It is difficult to try to change the volume when listening to music because i cant see the volume changer button.

I assume that you did not check before buying, if you had you would have seen that your Mac is too old for Airplay Mirroring to work:
Supported Macs
AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion takes advantage of the hardware video encoding capabilities of 2nd and 3rd Generation Intel Core processors. Hardware video encoding allows AirPlay Mirroring to efficiently deliver high frame rates while maintaining optimal system performance. The following Mac models have processors that support AirPlay Mirroring:
iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
And if you bought ML solely for that function you should remove it from your machine and get a refund.

Ring volume and call volume goes down automatically, how can i fix it?

Changing Call Volume 4g iphone

I find when im talking to people on my phone the volume is a little lower then I would like. Its not that I cant hear them, its just on the low side... and thats in my room where its quiet. So I thought okay should be simple to turn up call/voice volume... But NO! There is no option for it that I can find.... I read about the buttons on the side.... those are Not for call volume those are simply for the ringer which is oboxiously loud at medium. I find this very odd... am I missing something in the settings? Or am I just stuck with the volume as it is when im talking to someone... and if im in a loud place ill have to tell them to yell
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
And yes my phone is up to date on its software I just bought it.
And Yes the shipping plastic is off

Hi. During the call, the + and - buttons on the side will adjust the call volume.
Best,
Duke

Call volume in and out

Sometimes the call volume is very inconsistent. During a call it is possible that the volume goes totally low for a few seconds and then it comes back and then back down again.
Almost as if it goes in some sort of sleep mode and it takes a second to wake up again.
Any idea?

Funny thing, when this happend to my phone, call sound with speaker off would come out in the speakers in the back and you could barely hear anything like if that was the earpiece, when I turned on speaker, sound would come out of the ear piece and would be extremely loud. How I fixed this: turn off phone > pull battery out > disconnect anything connected to device (headphones, charger) > wait at least 40 secs > reboot > unlock phone and wait for it to boot up (leave it unlocked by itself, if it sleeps just let it do that) > then try again

Galaxy S4 doesnt ring or vibrate when my boyfriend calls but does if anyone else calls me

My phone will not ring or vibrate when my boyfriend calls me but will when anyone else calls me. it used to ring when he called but then all of a sudden stopped. i have not changed any settings or even the ringtone for my boyfriends calls, so i dont understand what the issue is. all of my settings for volume, ringtone, vibration, etc are turned on.

That is pretty strange, bro0klynbridge. But you've come to the right place for answers. Checking the contact settings to make sure you don't have the calls set to go to voicemail for his contact as Ann154 mentioned is a good start. When you select his name in your contact list, press menu and look for the "All calls to voicemail" box. Your phone will still show a missed call but the call will almost immediately go into your voicemail if the box is checked. Also, try to edit his contact listing and select a different ringtone to ensure his line isn't set to the silent option or possibly a ringtone that's been removed from your phone.

Where has my call volume gone....

updated to latest version and 2 strange things have occured....
1 - Call volume through handset has now gone inaudible as the volume is too low - works fine through headphones and speaker. Weird as has been fine from day 1 until the update.
2 - The home button now is not sensitive and I find myself pressing many times to get out of screens..
This is annoyingly frustrating and I cannot find any other solutions as hard resets are not working

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Adobe Volume lowers itself in mixer

This happens when listening to a radio station stream, Pandora, and other sites as well. I will be listening at normal volume, and it will lower the volume of just the adobe flash player in the volume mixer. I have even seen it where i turn it back up, and it immediately goes right back down, as well as not even being near the computer and it lowers itself.
I have updated to the lastest version of flash player, and cleared the cache in firefox. The only thing that seems to help is to reboot my computer, and that seems to fix it for a few days.
I have noticed this on multiple computers as well, so i do not believe it is a problem with any installations.
also, in the volume mixer under adobe flash player, it shows 2 volume levels sometimes one is at the normal level, but when it adjusts itself, a grey out indicator appears at the normal volume, and the actual slider goes down to 1. I can click on the greyed out indicator to return to the normal/previous volume. None of the other volume sliders have this, and i cannot find a way to remove the "memory" slider/
here is a pic: the bottom slider is where it lowers itself to automatically at random

My 1st gen iphone is up to the same antics. Pre 2.0 all was perfect. Then then update... During calls, if you adjust the volume for either the iphone earpiece, speaker phone, or bluetooth headset (I'm using the Plantronics voyager 520, which was purchased at the apple store), the ringer volume gets adjusted as well.
Just go into the sounds option under settings, make a call, and watch in awe as you adjust your call volume and ringer volume at the same time.
I've missed calls b/c the volume resets it self to a lower (random) setting. Now I must check after every call. The best part is if you push up on your volume button while at the home screen (the ringer volume pop up appears) and note that you have it on the highest setting, go ahead and check the sound option under settings. It will be at some random lower level. Oh my phone never did this on 1.4. I do hope the engineers are reading this and release a fix ASAP. The main purpose of the iPhone is to be a phone. Missing calls due to a low ringer volume is crazy.

Vibe Z2 (not the Pro) in-call volume

Hi there,
Vibe Z2 (no Pro) would be my ultimate phone, except for one big disadvantage for me and that's an "in-call" volume (loudnes). Simply it's too low. Not just the speaker itself but the whole in-call volume (same when switch to loudspeaker). What's even worst - I can't use it in car with built in Parrot simply because I can barely hear the other side. All other phone was great with this, Nokias, Sams, HTC was even too loud...
Please is there any known solution? On other phones with mtk chips I would use mtk tools, but Z2 is a Snapdragon of course .
If at first you don't succeed... so much for skydiving

The Call Quality on the Vibe Z2 (not Pro) that I tested was so bad that I returned the unit to the seller, who then returned it back to lenovo. Since my first phone in 1998 until now, I never had a unit that would have such a bad call quality as this Vibe Z2. I thought it is only the unit that I have, but it could be that it is more (all) units.
While I was in a shopping mall and someone called me, I could not hear them properly as the sound was too low. On high volume the speakers make a little noise as being overburdened. When making a call in Skype, on the contrary, the other party could not hear me as the microphone did not seem to work with Skype properly.
I did not have any issue with loudspeakers, they seem to be loud as it gets, but there seemed to be an echo. With headphones the call quality was fantastic, so I believe it could be the hardware's fault. So if it does not get fixed you can return the unit to the seller or lenovo and wait for the Vibe Z3.
This is the ultimate phone, as you rightly said, and I wish someone from China could send me a unit with a good call quality on Vibe Z2 (and all the other small bugs fixed). I would even go to China to show the developers this faults so it can get fixed so I could have it as my primary phone.

UCCE 8.5.3/8.5.4 call volume statistics not matching in interval tables

hello,
We have just migrated a call center to UCCE 8.5.3 that runs roggers and ICM call flow scripts that contain very basic flows. In each flow there is basically a one-to-one ratio of call type elements to select skill group elements.
Generally you would expect the call volume (as our scripts are written) to have almost the same call volume in the call type interval table and the skill group interval table, with allowable differences because of RONAs, etc. But basically somewhat close.
In general this does work but after a reboot of the roggers (A and B sides) (logger down first, then router and reversed to start), the skill group interval data lags greatly from the call type interval data, meaning maybe 10% of the call type interval volume. We have learned that completely shutting down both A and B side and then briinging it back up in order from scratch seems to alleviate the problem (until the next restart). We cannot just leave the servers alone though due to company security patching policies.
Cisco TAC had recommended patching to UCCE 8.5.4 which we have recently done, but the probelm persists.
I was wondering if this data discrepancy has ever been seen by anyone else or if possibly some system config issue might be self-deating us? Rebooting the roggers leaves the phone system itself working just fine for the call centers, but the recording of statistics to the skill group interval table is greatly impacted with almost no recording of volume in relation to the call type interval (and for comparison, the call type skill group interval table as well).
We would generally not worry about it, but the workforce management vendor that takes its feed from UCCE only uses the skill group interval, which is basically reporting almost no volume in the mentioned scenarios.
If anyone can provide any information it would be most appreciated/
Thanks.
Greg

Thank you for the response. The time source check is a great idea. We ran into problems before when internal web service servers did not match the PGs (CTIOS service) and CTI provideed stats did not match.
We will continue to work through TAC, but I was just wondering if anyone else had seen this (as 8.5.4 sid not fix it) and if maybe it could have been something self-defeating in our system configuration or scripting. We did not immediately know this was happening until our 3rd party workforce management vendor made us aware.
Thanks,
Greg

So in the last few days I’ve noticed that pressing my volume change keys actually isn’t changing the volume on my macbook pro at all. When I press the volume up or down keys, it makes the recognisable pop sound but stays at the same volume while the squares go up or down. I mute it but my computer still makes sound. It’s the same with the volume control up the top of the screen, too. I slide it up and down and it doesn’t change the volume at all. The only way I can change the volume is with my speakers or the program I’m in (iTunes, VLC etc). I restarted and it seems to be okay then I go to change it a couple minutes later and it’s back to not working again.
I’ve checked my settings- the “use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard fuction keys” is not switched on, and I have tried a suggestion of moving the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file out of the library and onto the desktop and restarting and neither of those seem to make any difference whatsoever. I’ve tried to find online forums but the only suggestions I found were those two and they didn’t work.
I’m just annoyed because I usually have the worst luck with technology but my macbook had been going strong and I got it because of the apparent lack of things that could go wrong, but of course even if there is one thing that could go wrong it will happen to me.
Please help!
