Can't change ring tone volume. - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

All of a sudden today my ring tone volume goes all the way down and I can't raise it back up. Volume rockers don't work, and if I go into setting the ring tone volume is greyed out. The only thing I've done differently today is pair a Moto H730 bluetooth headset. I can't imagine how that would affect this.
Update: rebooting fixes it, but only for awhile then volume goes all the way back down. Also I've noticed apps in folders on my home screen rearranging themselves which is super irritating.

Have you tried a factory reset? I know that's a sucky option, but it might be worth seeing if that works.

Haha dang you caught me! If you're still pretty much stock, that's about the only thing I could think of doing to maybe get it fixed.

I wonder if you didn't acidentally set a quiet time and forgot about it.

I thought that too, but no. It's been fine all evening. Did it twice earlier today. We'll see how tomorrow goes.

If you are rooted poke around under system media for the right file and rename it.

Also curious if anyone finds a solution for this.. Its super annonying when riding my motorcycle. With my helmet on if I lower the vol then try to go back up to max it doesnt because I have my phone buried away in my jacket and inaccessible.
Having the same problem. Trying to work listening to music but keep having to take my phone out of my pocket to change the volume back. Getting really old really quick! I listen to a lot of music and this just isn't acceptable. If it wasn't for the crappy camera of the HTC One I would already be considering taking this phone back. I don't want to have to root and fiddle with my phone anymore, I want a phone I can just use without having to tinker with it.
I too had this problem, but it's gone now... not really sure what I did.. I definitely didn't mess around with any system files.. now I'm really curious how I did it.. I'll see what settings I changed and report back!

Charge your phone?
But seriously, just use root explorer to delete boot.ogg in system/media/ui/audio
Obviously you have to root to do this.

Check the Development section. I think there is a mod in there to disable it.

I can't find it? link?
The only way round this is to keep the level above the warning and dont go below. If you need to go below use your headphones volume control (if it has one)
What is this warning all about? why has it been introduced? is it only on the s4? it's health and safety madness, i'm sure people have the sense to listen to music at a level they want, if its too loud for their ears thats down to them, its our ear 'oles
I got the message once, I think I just hit a check box to not appear again. Now when I do it a little warning pops up that says it could be dangerous and goes away but doesn't stop me from increase the sound to max
It's weird, the first week I had the phone I had to click an 'OK' button every time I wanted to go over about 80% volume. Now I just get a toast-style message but I don't need to click through any confirmation window. I don't remember clicking or even having an option for a 'don't ask me again' box. Maybe once you've dismissed the window enough times it just never comes back?

That's to remove the boot sound, I don't think he read the title or op...
If I have my phone in my pocket and I turn the volume up when the screen is off I still get a pop up that will not allow me to go past until I hit OK. Annoying when I am on my bike and I have to stop and take out the phone. I am also using different head phones so I have to use the volume rocker from my pocket.
When screen is on you get a warning but doesnt effect sound. When screen is off and you use the rocker to adjust it will stop the increase, light up the screen and force you to click ok to proceed with vol increase

Same for me, when the screen is on I just get the small message at bottom but it allows me to go past it. Whats annoying is that all head phones are different, and half the time I am just using the phone as an aux plug-in for my truck.

[Q] Find not ringing

Hi Guys,
I have a big problem.
My find doesn't ring when in standby (after pushing the power butto to lock it).
I tried everything but no way...
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
No way?
Does your screen light up when you have an incoming call?
Sent from my X909 using Tapatalk 4
Only when not in stand by.
If in stand by no screen and no ringing...

May be a hardware malfunction. Have you tried to contact the seller? I'll double check all the settings in case something got toggled off, but if you've tried other firmwares with full wipes then it should have reset whatever the problem was.. You have tried doing a full wipe/factory reset correct?
Sent from my X909 using Tapatalk 4
I thought it could be related to having messed up with profiles and/or sound settings... but...yeah...having tried other firmwares with prior factory resets... a hardware malfunction is definitely a possibility.

Vibration Settings Not Sticking

Hello again.
Not sure if this has already been discussed. Apologies if it was - I tried searching with Tapatalk but couldn't find anything.
I set my vibration settings to heartbeat but it doesn't seem to do anything. When notifications come through, I'm still getting the default long buzz. Anyone else run into this?

Hahaha yes I definitely am. It's sticking in terms of the option being persistent in the settings, but when it comes to it actually being used, I'm still getting the default long buzz. Will try a few of the other options and see what happens.

make your own one see if that sticks
Maybe this is a stupid question. Does the vibration pattern affect notifications or just the ringtone? I hate having such a long pulse for a short notification tone.
Apologies if it only affects the ringer. I'm just getting used to the Note 3. Can't wait for some good roms to come out for the Verizon version!

Phone defaults to speaker phone on answer stock unrooted Kit Kat T-Mobile

Can't figure out why when I answer a call the phone defaults to speaker phone on answer regardless if the toggle is lit or not. This started shortly after updating to take official KitKat update, never been rooted our anything and can't figure out why. Anyone have this problem or a fix? Thanks in advance.

I think it just seems like that. To me the speaker phone and regular ear speaker sound the exact same

No it is the speaker phone cause if I toggle hit the toggle to turn the speaker phone on it will continue as the speaker phone then if I toggle it off it will go to the ear speaker.

It ended up being GPS Status that was causing the issue, after clear cache, data and uninstall everything was fine.

Shut Off Volume Limit

Any way to shut off the volume warning. It is a pain when streaming in the car.
Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
Gravitybox has this option if you are rooted.
Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
If you are rooted, there are some files in the /etc directory that pertain to this, I will get the names an locations exactly for you if you want.
It only happens once after every time the phone is restarted. It's annoying, but every time I restart the phone I plug in some headphones, start playing some music, bump the volume up until the message comes up, and I never see it again.
