Call and Notifications volume increasing by itself - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

Hey guys
Maybe two or three months ago my phone started boosting the call/notifications volume by itself.
I keep trying to set it to just vibrate when I'm in meetings, as an example, and out of a sudden it rings. Did anyone experience this already?
It does increase only one step from vibrating, so It's not a loud ring, but it still pisses me off. Oftenly it disturbs professional meetings or awakes me if someone message me on whatsapp during the night.

I have heard some complaints about Dec OTA. Maybe wait until next OTA and hope that that fixes it?

peak time email synchroniation WP7

hello,
please does anybody has idea how to set peak time for email sync on WP7?
thank you
Tomas
You can't. Unlike WM, there isn't the ability to set sync times. One of the things I am hopeful will be included in a future update, although it doesn't seem like a big deal to most people....it seems I am one of the few who needs and misses this functionality in WP7
what ! No silent mode
Hi,
I hear you both.
Currently, XDA sends out its daily emails at just past 5am every morning
And since someone decided to not allow the phone to go 'silent', I get woken up every time

turn off your notifications sound when you go to bed.
Under settings/ ringtones and sounds
or turn the ringer off and that should mute them.

That's exactly what I do... "New email: none"
If not, wife would have me sleeping in the couch
same with me
sometimes it's very annoying not to have peak sync times...
hello all,
thank you for replies. i will switch to mute before sleep
bye

Phone does not ring sometimes?

At first I thought the rom I flashed on my GS2X was screwed so I flashed a stock rom and found the same was happening. Sometimes when a call comes in the phone does not ring and appears to be in silent mode when it is not?
Anyone know of some 'feature' that may be causing this?

You could try something, and I know itl sound weird but,
Change your ringtone, I had it happen to me a few times when I tested some of the roms on here..
That usually helped for me.
Or simply to you have motion on? Lol if so turning it upside down mutes it lmfao
Go to settings>MOTION>turn over to mute xD
And if that is it, I'm not gonna pick on ye, my buddy was wining about the same thing couple months ago n it was that, he got it for a few weeks.. I had my fun..
Thanks. I use phoneweaver to automatically change ringers and volume levels based on location etc and I think the settings aren't 'sticking' properly. I have never had issues until now on this phone. I noticed when this app changes the screen brightness even though the new value is shown in settings it has not actually changed. Maybe the same thing was happening on the ringer? The last time a call came in with no ring I quickly rebooted without changes and it rang when I called the phone so who knows...
I'll test further.

[Solved] Random Max In-Call Volume & Max In-Call Volume on each reboot

Whenever I make or receive a call, I see my in-call volume at maximum level! I don't understand why it keeps doing this? I noticed this problem on all 3 of note 2. I keep adjusting to low but randomly just gets reseted to max again. Anyone else having the same issue with T-Mobile Note 2?
Update: finally found the culprit of this problem. The app "Tango" video chat messes with the in-call volume. Once account & app was uninstalled even after the reboot in-call volume setting never changed. Everything stayed as I left it and no more random MAX in-call volume.
Video to show what Tango is doing to my in-call volume.
Nobody has this issue? how come all 3 of my Note 2 has this issue =/
Anyone?
Sorry, this doesn't help but I usually keep my in-call volume at max so I haven't noticed this.

Thanks for the reply. I don't know how you keep the volume at max.. maybe it's just my phones but it's too painfully loud for me.
Would you mind trying to lower the call volume to lowest setting and restart the phone? See if the call volume goes back to max, I would really appreciate that.
For whatever the reason, the volume setting is not getting saved. So annoying since everytime i answer a call, it's trying to blow my eardrums out!
I'm guessing nobody has this in-call volume issues on their T-mobile Note2? Should I be considering an exchange....??
Just FYI multiple post saying anyone? Anyone? Pple just find annoying. Not trying to be rude. But from what I noticed from posts from other forums. Is when pple do that. They will never receive help or a reply from someone. Especially when the OP keeps doing that all in the same day.
Sometimes if you want help. You need patience. Especially here on xda. Pple here don't live there lives to help you. Right when you make a new post. Sometimes it could take days or even a week or two. But I'm positive if you don't do multiple post like this. And wait or even search the web. Even user a different phone. You will find ur answer. Remember google is ur best friend.
Anyways I don't no if its because of my rom or not but mind keeps going to vibrate and I have to keep turning it back to sound + vibrate
Oh ya you also have to be detailed when asking questions. Are you rooted or not. Stock or flashed a rom. Which rom. ...you get the point. The more you tell use the more likely a chance someone will help you. If you choose not to look it up urself
My bad, wasn't trying to be annoying or anything. I searched around in many different forums but still no answers and didn't get any replies on this issue, even the t-mobile support didn't know what was causing this issue. I guess I was running thin on patience.
I'm running all on stock and all 3 devices does this. T-Mobile sales rep said maybe it's part of the feature.. But we all know that's b/s. Changing in-call volume randomly doesn't sound much like a great feature to me....

Ya unfortunately that sucks. If you were rooted I would say try to flash a different rom. But since ur not my best guess would be to search around for an app that has something to do with volume/ in call volume. There's an app for everything these days. Ur just gunna have to read all the details in every volume app you can find. I'm sure there's something. Good luck. If you happen to find something. Post it hear in case others run into the same problem as you in the future.
Am I the only one with this problem? I wish some of the same device/carrier users would give me some feedbacks so I can figure out what to do....
you talking about in call volume or ringer volume? if its in call volume im pretty sure that if i lower it during a phone call it stays that volume even on the next call
im not 100% sure though...and im not sure if it stands through a reboot but i am pretty sure...cause i dont leave my in call volume on max because it is quite loud and distorted...if it always went back up to max i probably wouldve noticed..again not 100% sure

It's the in-call volume. I have no idea what's causing this... When I lower the volume it will stay that way only for that call and next call or sometimes even during the call volume goes up to max randomly. It's driving me nuts cause it's so loud and I can't even answer the call without worrying its gonna blow my eardrums!
I tried restoring factory but that didn't help and all three of my Note 2 do this so I'm lost here. Not like I rooted and modified anything, all is in stock.
Would you mind trying to put in-call volume to lowest and rebooting the phone? See if it goes back to max by default. That's how mine is set to every reboot.

Try rebooting, see if that setting sticks.
It does this all randomly. Setting will stay that way for awhile and all of sudden max volume.

yeah..volume went back to max after reboot
try this
go to dialer -> call settings -> my call sound...there are 2 options that might help you...one for sound settings (maybe choosing one of them will help you) or personalize call sound..that one asks you to plug in ear phones..im not sure what happens after you run that test and if it only applies to earphones but you can try it

Why would it do that... It's not suppose to. I never had that issue with ATT Note, N7000 and i9300... I get the feeling many people just don't pay too much attention to it and when it does go up, people just lower the volume and forget about it.
Whatever the reason setting of the in-call volume isn't being saved. And something is making it to go back to default. Just don't know what though...
Keep your eye on that volume, and check if it goes up randomly.
P.S. I really appreciate the replies, been waiting for awhile.

Yeah, I really didn't want to annoy anyone but this little bug was driving me insane. Spending hours with T-Mobile tech supports weren't even helpful either. I hope it isn't a defective unit... Please let me know if you notice this issue! Thanks again =)
I think I found the culprit. Seems like "Jays headset control" app was causing this issue. It was never an issue on any other device but not sure why it's causing on note2. I uninstalled the app yesterday and so far problem hasn't come back yet. Time will tell but so far so good.
Thanks for looking and replying to my post. I can finally relax!
Update: wasn't jays app... Still having issue.

Unlocked HTC 10 on T-Mobile - Weird "Bleep" Sound When Taking Calls

I just got my unlocked HTC 10 a couple weeks ago and it works great! I use it on the T-Mobile network. I notice that during like 60-70% of my received calls, when I first take the call, I hear a weird robotic-like "BLEEP" sound right at the beginning which lasts about a second or so then vanishes.
ANY idea what this is? It's not a big deal really, but if there's a way to resolve it, I'd like to know how.
Thanks!!

I'm with T-Mobile on US unlocked as well. But I've never noticed this issue. Nor do I hear anybody mentioned before. For every call? Or you were recording the call?

No it doesn't happen EVERY time, but like maybe 60-70% of the time, and only really briefly right after I take the call, then it vanishes.

I too have an unlocked US HTC 10 and haven't heard any beep sounds, but I would suggest you to disable VoLTE setting and try to answer the call again and see.
If you don't know where it is, then go to settings>calls, then scroll to the bottom and then turn on/off Voice over LTE setting.

Ok I'll try it...................but I like VoLTE, so even if it turns out to be the cause of this issue, I'll still eventually just leave it on. lol
It appears the issue is resolved now. I turned off VoLTE for a few days and took some calls........no bleeps. But then I re-enabled it about 4 days ago, and since then the bleeps have continued to not occur (knock on wood). Perhaps it just needed to be toggled with to "set it into place"? Anyway, if it happens again I'll post here, but for now I say case closed!
Thanks again to all who contributed! Glad the issue is gone though. lol

Honor view 20 phantom (vibrating) notifications

Hey,
My phone has been randomly vibrating as if I get a notification, which I don't. It will give 2 short vibrations. Last week it's been happening more often. Does anyone know how I could fix the problem?
Thanks!

Now that you mention it, I've had a couple of Phantom Notifications too. Once my phone vibrated while it was even in my hand but when I unlocked it there were no notifications. I went into settings and disabled vibration for a number of system apps and so far I haven't experienced the vibrations yet. It's hard to tell if I've actually fixed it, or if the timing's just random though.

I had done that previously with some system apps, for a while it had gotten down. However, like I mentioned before, it had gotten a lot worse this week. I now turned off the sound and vibration for all (system) apps that I don't notifications from.
I'll let you know whether that fixes it or not.
Unfortunately, it didn't help
