Help. G6 is auto muting when turning on display - LG G6 Questions and Answers

Hi, does anyone know why this would happen? today morning when my G6 alarm rang, I just pressed some random buttons to mute it. Since then the phone is going into Auto Mute. I can turn up the volume but when I turn off the display and turn it back on, it mutes. I don't want to reset the phone

Check in the sound&notification settings if there is something wrong like the "not disturbing" enabled or something like that

How you know that it's in mute? There is some sort of symbol in the status bar? Can you post a screen of it?

Yes, you can see in this screen shot. I even tried turning up the ringer volume to full and then turn off and on the screen and then I see the ringer is muted again View attachment 4140577

Tried also to enable and disable the not disturb option? The reset may be the only solution, it takes time but you can save almost everything with lgbackup.

Thanks Killua96 for trying to help me. I just found out the problem. I had installed an app noheadsup by Floatify which tried to activate Do not disturb mode every time I turned on the screen. But I didn't doubt the app because I had installed it one week ago, and it just started acting up today. Thanks for suggestions friend!

Keyboard clicks went silent.. :confused:

Anyone out there having as issue where the sound from the keyboard clicks, unlock and lock sounds, and the dial pad phone calls went almost un-hearable??
I have no current mods to my phone just picked it up started typing and noticed i could no longer hear my keyboard clicks and went on to discover that many of system sounds were quieter.
The rings and other notifications work just fine though very odd this is not the first time this has happened to me with other android devices but typically either a battery pull or a quick reset resolves the issue but not this case.
Anyone with similar issues with a quick fix aside from restore??
I have noticed that when the battery get low sounds and vibration setting get shut off.
Please post questions in Q&A section.

Yep.. You can edit all that in the Power Saver Options. It also will shut down WiFi. Very Annoying.
well i thought that also but my battery was fully charged.
I noticed when I clicked things the clicking sound was randomly extremely low. I went to the sound settings and just played with em for a min and it went back to normal :/
sadly i tried all that stuff and i am getting extremely frustrated

Mine turns off just fine but I've seen that issue on other phones, don't know how to fix it though.
Theres a power saving mode your phone gets into when it reaches 15% or lower. This setting quiets your phone, takes off vibrations, and more thing just to save batt. life, u can change this is settings

Keeping it quiet during the night

On my iPhone, I have a mode where I can keep my phone quiet during the night, so text messages etc. don't wake me up. Is there something similar on the Nexus 7? Is there an app that does this or some setting?
Thanks,
Jon
There are a number of free apps that do this. My personal favorite is Timerrific.
I just turn off the wifi when I go to sleep.

Have you tried Settings > Sounds > Quiet Hours? There are a number of options for setting the time you want your tablet quiet and which notifications and sounds are disabled.
EDIT: Oops, it appears that Quiet Hours is a CyanogenMod feature.
Now you know its not good to feed the iTroll

What about something like Tasker, or is that a lot more convoluted than using something like Timerrific?

Tasker will certainly get the job done, although I don't think it's nearly as user-friendly as Timerrific, plus it's about $7 last I checked. Unless you need something like GPS-sensitive profiles, Tasker is overkill for what you need.

I turn on Airplane Mode at night... Saves the battery and nothing bugging me at night.
I find that the button above the volume controls work quite well.

I like an app called "Shush!". Works great for other times you want to silence your device, such as meetings, and don't want to forget to turn the sound back on after.
Volume down button maybe
What is wrong with just turning the volume down button to mute...
If you get screen turning on just turn notifications off..

Bingo. Why do you need an app to do something so simple? Do you need an app to turn the bedroom light off at night, too?

It's the convenience and reliability. I don't trust myself that I'd remember to turn the volume down every night. And I hate to be waken up by a spam email in the middle of the night.
And what if you want to use your device as an alarm clock, or listen to podcasts as you drift off to sleep? Huh? Huh?

Turn notifications off.. Alarm clock will still work.....
You never said that in your first post...
Good Luck ...
You have an iPhone
Plenty of apps as others have said
OR you could simply turn the volume down... Simples

How do I disable do not disturb?

Problem:
Phone in my pocket, volume down gets bumped into. The next 3 hours I won't get any notifications. This is incredibly annoying and frustrating.
How in the world can I disable volume down activating do not disturb while the screen is off?
First, the power button has to be bumped first, then the volume down button (various times). Too much bumping.
get a case

The power button does not need to be bumped.
While the phone is sleeping (screen off + short wait), press volume down either once or twice and it will go into do not disturb mode. I can also put on full volume while it's sleeping as well.
Tried what you said. Doesn't happpen to me. Using stock rom.

Issue has just came back. Restarting the phone makes it go away. Seems like we have found a solution! I'll keep a log of how often this happens here.

Which rom are you using? Is Double tap to Wake enabled? Are you using an app to lock the screen? Maybe that app is not locking the screen initially but displaying a black image for a short time before turning the display off.

Stock rom.
Ambient display is disabled.
No App. It did this stock out of the box
RMA would be a better option.
Problem has come back! a week delay this time
I would love an option to disable it on the phone entirely I never use it anyway and it occasionally gets turned on by mistake and I end up missing calls.
Found this in another forum - change DND priority settings to allow calls and messages from anyone. Should fix it!

When on call incoming call waiting not waking screen.

So to explain myself, on all my other phones if i was on a call and another call came there would be a ring to let me know there is another call and the screen would wake to show me who it is.
With the essential phone it does ring, but it does not wake the screen to show me who it is unless i press the power button to wake the screen.
Is this just happening to me? Is this a bug? Is this a setting? Is this the norm for the Essential? Just got the phone 3 days ago so any help would be greatly appreciated!

It never happened to me and I'm running the latest Oreo beta 2. Try going to your phone app settings then clear the data to see if that helps.

Is your phone rooted? or do you have any other phone app installed?
My best guess option for you is do the factory data reset but make sure to backup your phone before doing so.
Good luck!

No Continuous Volume Slider Setting

Hi- On every Android phone I have ever had if I held the volume slider down I could rapidly change the volume. On my 6T this does not work, I must repeatedly press the slider to change the volume. Is this normal for the Oneplus?
Thanks
Not for me mine slides and changers with each click

Works fine here too. Are you rooted? Maybe installed an app that interferes with it?
That's strange. No I am not rooted.
I did install the AudidFX app at one point but have since uninstalled. Does not seem likely but maybe that messed it up.

Maybe bcoz mine is also working good
I reinstalled AudioFx, disabled it, and uninstalled it, and rebooted. I have it working again, at least for now!
Thanks all.
I am also having this issue.. i need to press it again and again to increase or decrease volume.. it just dont change if i keep holding the button either up or down
Issue returned on my phone.
I just rebooted and it went away.
I'm not sure yet but I suspect this happens after an app puts the phone in Do Not Disturb or gaming modes.
