New Nexus 4 Silent mode issue
Hi,
Even I got a brand new Nexus 4 very recently as a birthday gift from my sister who stays in USA. I stay in India and even I am facing the same issue.
PROBLEM: The phone automatically toggles between ringer and silent mode when making calls.
Say if I've put the phone in silent mode, on making a call it will go to ringer mode and if im on ringer mode, making a call will get me to silent mode.
PS: Did you find any solution? It really gets annoying during meetings as you said.
Also if i reboot the phone this issue gets fixed for some time but again it starts happening.
I have already done a full factory reset twice. Nothing seems to be working for me. I know it's a software bug but it's a new device.
Any solutions??? Plss... Or did your problem get resolved? How if it did...

Sadly No solution to this problem.. But now a days trend has reversed fro me .. if i have it in vibrator mode and change it to ringer it chnages back to vibrator on its own.. this is frustating

Facing the same man... It's not a new problem... we are facing the same issue...
As I mentioned... if its on ringer it goes to vibrate and if its on vibrate it goes to ringer... But if you reboot it gets fine for some time.... then starts happening again...
Let me know if you find a solution. Otherwise have you experienced any screen Freezing during Incoming calls (Unable to pick up) and all? I'm facing that too...

what about: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2248866

Avg is the culprit according to that forum but.. I need to test it out.. tahnks anyways

AVG SUCKS! - It's the reason for all this chaos
AVG is the cause... Thanks a lot. It never occured to me that what was installed to protect my phone was the reason to corrupt its software.
Uninstalled it and now its perfectly fine. Love my Nexus 4.

[Q] GALAXY S 4 Urgent loudspeaker issue

Hey guys this thing thats been happening to me is absulotely mind boggling and if anyone can resolve this it would be greatly appreciated. it bugs me like theres no tomorrow.
so heres the issue.
i have a samsung galaxy s4 with all the latest updates provided Android Version 4.2.2
when im travelling along in the car or even randomly seated i would receive a call or even make a call and place my phone on loudspeaker now the funny thing here is that the phone after maybe 10-20 seconds will automatically switch back to normal speaker and it annoys me so i have to put it back on loudspeaker mode
ive had the occasional scene where it still showed that loudspeaker was activated but the caller was coming through the normal speaker so it forces me to tap loudspeaker to de-activate it and then tap it again to activate only to realise not long after it automatically switched back to the normal speaker all over again.
NOTE: the phone is laying flat on my lap or standing infront of me.
has anyone had this issue before and is there some sort of fix for it
PLEASE HELPPP !!!

[Q] i9300 no sound on phone call

When I dial or receive call from my friend, there is no sound from other side. However, my friend can hear me.
I have checked on other posts said tick turn on the lock screen sound then reboot, but it is only temporary.
I also found out that another situation also cause no sound. That is turn the phone volume to silent or vibrate mode and then reboot. This also cause no sound on phone call after reboot.
It is annoying that I should turn the phone to vibrate mode when I am on duty. If the system crash and reboot itself, I would miss calls.
Any one could help?

Ringtones Bug

870DS 10e TWN
unrooted
debloated (26 apps)
active non-LG or Google apps: Nova Launcher, AccuBattery, WhatsApp, Instagram, two banking apps. that's it!
missed a bunch of phone calls and texts today, discovered all ringtones and notifications were dead. in Settings, confirmed that all volumes were up, Airplane mode was off, etc. the crazy thing: on the ringtones / notifications screens, clicking on any/all of them produced no sound. none of them worked. and strangely, playing music or videos or youtube still worked fine.
rebooted and everything is working again, for now.
ugh. it happened again. missed a bunch of calls in the last two hours, and also the courier at my front door.
but it's unpredictable: earlier this morning i got a text message notification. but after that ... nothing. phone did not ring, but when i checked the ringtones and notifications and contacts, they all seemed to work.
anyone else have this happen?

smart settings have not been activated. but Gestures > Silence incoming call / Flip phone to silence incoming call was ON. turned it off, will see if there's any change ...
something definitely wonky. might try another reset. again, this issue is intermittent / unpredictable:
took phone calls this morning at 7:53am and 8:00am. when i checked the call log, i saw that i missed an incoming call at 7:47am -- and the voicemail notification -- before these other calls.
concerning ...

I'm facing the same issue. Miss a lot of calls/text/alarms every day. I don't know when it's going to happen. A restart fixes it. I'll tell you what I've observed till now:
1. Can happen anytime. The sound will stop coming from speakers/headphones.
2. A reboot will fix it
3. Phone not on silent. Face down silent setting Off. Answer incoming call setting Off.
4. Notification/ringtone/system volume at max
5. No sounds, except for music, will come from the speakers
6. I put the phone on vibrate. Connected headphones. Called myself. There was a very very faint ringtone coming through the headphones.
Reverted to sound mode. Called again. No sound anywhere. Not from the speaker. Not from headphones.
7. Called LG customer care. They couldn't fix it.
I'm 100% sure that this is a software issue as a reboot fixes it. It might be because of a third party app. I've put my phone in safe mode to check if the issue resurfaces. Will inform on it after 24 hours of testing.
If anyone gets any solution please report.

And I tried the factory reset also... Didn't work.
probably related to one of the 26 apps you debloated...

Notification sound bug

Does anybody face this bug" notification sound automatically go into the vibration mode,restart to get everything back to normal"??i tried cear partition cache but didn't help this method..help plz
I also have the same issue. In my case, notification sound or ring comes from earpiece speaker instead of main speaker so it's too low to be heard. Not sure about the root cause. Reboot definitely helps but quick way to fix it is to call any number(like 111) and hang up after putting it on speaker. Is anyone else facing the same issue?
I can confirm that notification/call ringtone goes silent automatically in v323 also. DND is not activated and no power saving module/mod is enabled. This is an annoying bug and frequently causes me to miss important calls and notifications
Same here.
I solved my problem this way..i dont know if it will work for you friends..
Step 1 download the zedge app from playstore
Step 2 download the htc reactive notification tone
Step 3 set it via phone setting but select zedge app
I dont have the call ringtone problem i set "RING 1"
check it guys ..and tell me if it is working or not?
Thanks. sorry for bad english!

Didn't work for me. Do you guys have any smartwatch connected via Bluetooth? I do and may be it is the root cause of this issue?
I think this issue definitely has something to do with Samsung gear S3. Whenever I turn off and back on the Bluetooth, issue appears to be gone for few hours.
Guys i think the new 326 update fixed this issue..whats say?
I still have this issue but it's not so frequent now. It comes back in 2-3 days after reboot.
Issue is there. Randomly no notification. 326

I experience it too. But in my case, I don't have to restart the phone, only turn it back to ring mode works to fix it although only temporarily.
It happens randomly, if I'm not using my phone for about 15 minutes, not always happen but randomly, occasionally happen.
I don't have any smartwatch apps or alike installed, but I'll check for other apps that might causing it.
I wish whether it's a bug from Asus or mistake from my side, it can be fixed somehow, because it's annoying.
Still looking for the solution.
=========
UPDATE: SOLVED (A long ago actually, sorry I just write this now)
An app caused it. It has to do with timer and notification sound triggering at some preset times a day.
After I uninstall the app, all is OK.
Hey guys, I am too facing the issue. But root cause seems to be this.. When I open any app that gives some audio output, n I immediately try to reduce the volume. Somehow the ringer volume also goes down along with media. N after this whenever I press the volume rocker, it doesn't work on ringer volume but on media volume. Once I restart it works fine but same thing repeats if I do what I mentioned.
Hi guys anyone experience after the update or Android become Android 8.0 my phone do not have signal anymore
