I was hoping I would never have to post in this forum for an issue with my phone, but this one is kind of annoying.

The main issue I'm having is with my volume control when I have headphones plugged in. I play the music, and it plays so loudly that I can barely have the headphones in my ears. When I press up or down on the volume button, it shows that the media volume is changing, however the volume actually doesn't change.

I've tried rebooting the phone and messing with the settings, nothing will work.

The other issue I'm having is with the speaker phone. Every time I answer a call or make an outbound call, speakerphone automatically turns itself on. Again, I've tried rebooting the phone and flipping through the settings, but I wasn't able to find anything.

The speakerphone issue has gotten worse lately... every time I don't want to talk on speaker, I need to turn it off once the call starts. However, lately speakerphone will turn itself on and off when I'm on the call. I was sitting here watching my phone turn speakerphone off/on continuously.

I know people have seen the speakerphone issue before, but I haven't noticed any posts about the volume issue I'm having.

Any suggestions?

 

I haven't. Even if I did, I have this thick case on it that should protect it I would imagine.

*sigh* this is my 4th replacement Evo since I got the phone after it was released. I would really prefer to not have to send this back, especially after the poor customer service I get from Sprint.

Is there anything else I could try doing, other than a hard reset? If I have to return my phone, I'm paying the cancellation fees and switching to Verizon lol.

 

Yep, AudioManager didn't do nothing.

I'm stuck here at work, so I was researching into it a little more. I found this: http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-sup...200604-evo4g-no-headphone-volume-control.html.

Nothing really helped me much in there, except for confirming I need a replacement.

I also noticed that if my phone is plugged into the charger, I'm able to adjust the volume with both the adjuster on the side, and from AudioManager. When I unplug the charger, it defaults back to the original volume level, which is too loud.

I'm gonna have some fun words with Sprint later... Verizon here I come!

 

Yeah when I had to send in my Evo the first time, they sent me a brand new one. But of course.. all of those other phones gave me the same problem. It just so happened to be the one that worked was a refurb, with a bent ear piece and a screen that made a creaking noise everytime it's pressed on. Gotta love Sprint!

I'm confused.. your banned now? lol
