I've noticed twice now, that after plugging in the headphones, I can increase or decrease the volume (numerically the numbers go up and down) but the volume through the headphones does not change. However, after a reboot, it works fine. Does anyone know what this problem could be; is anyone else having it?
Ypur not alone
I have been having this same issue, so far 3-4 times and have to reboot the phone and it starts working again.

Right now, when even i locked my phone and i m playing any music on the head set, the side volume button can still be used to tweak the volume.. Its a little irritating at times when it suddenly blares up in the volume..
I highly suspect that the problem has got to do with the radio i m using right now...
I know this is not normal so i would just like to know if anyone else here has encountered a similar problem???
volume buttons stay active when the phone is locked, even when headset is plugged in. Its not a fault.
Hi,
I've been having consistent problems with volume, specifically being too low, and especially while connected to a bluetooth headset. I also noticed some odd, and likely related, behavior with the volume in general.
Here's how I see it: Start some music playing. Go to Menu > Settings > Sound > Volume and scrub the Media volume slider back and forth from 100% to 0% and back (and repeat).
On my Atrix, the max sound gets consistently lower each pass until it's silent, even at 100% setting. I think this is part of the issue with the media volume. As I adjust it up and down it loses some peak volume each time. I can bring it back up with a lot of tinkering (mostly through the OS volume controls and in PlayerPro), but I have not found the formula to deal with this in a normal way.
Has anyone else seen this, or can suggest a way to prevent or restore these volume anomalies? Running GB and rooted. Thanks!
I haven't seen this specific issue, but if you think the Atrix has volume problems, go try to use the Infuse without voodoo sound.
Are you saying I should try an Infuse ROM? I'm not sure what you're instructing me to do. Sorry for the extra clarification needed.
No, I'm just saying that your issues could be worse. The Infuse is another phone. Disregard my post if it confuses you.
I use PlayerPro also and have no issues over BT. I start my music playing, turn media volume up full via the volume up button, then control volume level after that with my headset.
I never go into the volume in settings, as it is greyed out for me. I am set on silent and vibrate always as I spend a lot of time in meetings.
My issue is not with PlayerPro or even BT (though it is more noticeable with it), the problem is that the audio gets progressively lower as I raise/lower the volume. PlayerPro does have some volume settings, which is why I mentioned it here.
I found an app called Volume+ that works fine with my rooted Atrix. It boosts the bluetooth audio. I still have the problems I listed above, but this one app may enough to get me over the hump.
I still would like to know what causes the strange volume behavior I'm experiencing above.
I'm having a weird issue with the volume on this phone. I always keep my volume controls at maximum unless I need to change it later, but with this phone, even though I know the volume is at max, when i start a call, the call volume immediately drops lower and i have to turn it back up mid-call. It also drops the headset volume after unplugging a 3.5mm cable. I'm assuming that's in case you're listening to music with headphones and accidentally pull it out, so you don't end up blasting music in the middle of your office, but i use it in my car and it's an inconvenience to have to turn it back up every time i unplug it.
does anyone know of a fix for this, or did i miss a sound option for this somewhere?

The S3 had the same thing with the headset volume drop. I hate it cause I always keep it on the same volume for my car when I plug it in. I was never able to find a fix for the S3 besides ROMing so hopefully something comes for the note deuce.

Yeah, it is really annoying. Not a bad feature, just let us turn it off if we need to! Ugh.
I found several volume control apps/widgets that feature "volume locking". i'm going to try that, but now problem is the volume controls on the side are also locked and you can only control the volume through the app, also very inconvenient...
Success! I can confirm that VolumeManager can lock individual volume streams from changes based on criteria, including plugging in and unplugging the headset! It's also good for the call volume as I never turn it down anyway, i just keep that stream locked at all times.

I tried VolumeManager and put the keep setting on and the volume still changes

Anyone else experience this? The phones speaker is pretty weak, so obviously to listen to any media though the speaker, one would need to have the volume at 100%. But every time the phone gets rebooted its back to 50%....
Is there a setting somewhere to fix this? Or is it just me?
This is slightly odd and a tad annoying. Whenever I fire up the phone & bluetooth headphones I have to put the volume up much higher. When I disconnect and go back a few hours later the volume has reset itself back to the lower level and I have to crank it up again. Not once has it stayed at the previous manually set by me level. Anyone else noticed this?
I'm also experiencing this and it's really annoying. Never experienced this with any other Android phone.
I'm hoping a software update might fix this, along with the awful fingerprint reader.
