Google Nexus 5 :: Volume Rocker Buttons Not Working?
Aug 11, 2014
I'm trying to turn the volume up/down with the side rocker buttons, but the dang things do not respond (and yes, the case has been removed). I've had to reboot my N5 each and every time, and its getting very old very fast. I find I have to go into settings and change it there. I've read that there might be an app running that is using my volume, not allowing me to change it. When I went into my apps to see what's running, its the usual stuff. Nothing that would be using it. So, is there an app to find out if there is a rogue app running I don't know about?
Now that we don't have Xposed and its modules on our Lollipop is there any other way to skip music tracks by long pressing volume buttons while screen is off?!
I am rooted , Franco kernel r35 , and gravity box installed..Let's say after I restart the nexus , I can go through a couple of hours browsing Google chrome fine , then randomly the back button doesn't work along with the keyboard not popping up?Is it the actual nexus phone problem or is it the kernel..
My nexus 5 after some random reboots on latest cataclysm rom started to have a problem that power and volume button were not working at all. I have done everything and even flashed it all back to stock with no luck. The power and volume buttons work perfectly in bootloader mode but dont work in recovery or in the rom.
One of the few things that mars the near perfect HTC One camera experience is the lack of volume rocker functionality when taking photos. The fact that it's not on by default is understandable, but that it's missing entirely is bewildering, what an oversight! Any chance there's a fix out there that doesn't involve using a different app?
I only noticed yesterday that I cannot alter any volume from the rocker button. Also can't do a system reset using the V- method. Does this mean it's time to call HTC? Dpn't fancy letting Phones 4 U play with it.
While listening to music with headphones or a line-in cable, the volume rocker no longer works if the screen is off/locked. I have to turn on the screen in order to adjust the volume up or down.
If the berry rings while in the holster and I press "up" on the volume rocker, the incoming call alerts stop (stops ringing and vibrating), however, the call is not terminated.If I press "down" on the volume rocker instead, the call is ended and the call is sent to voicemail.Additionally, if I first press "up" to stop the ringing/vibrating and THEN press "down", the caller is NOT sent to voicemail.With the design of the Bold 9000 and my PDAIR holster, it's pure luck which button my finger hits when retrieving the berry after it starts vibrating/ringing.Is there any way I can change the behavior of the volume "down" rocker so it stops ending calls? Or is there some other measure I can take to achieve similar results?I'm using the Azercell 5.0.0.592 OS (installed fresh).
I have tried apple and samsung headphones that have volume controls on the headphone wire and both of them pause audio play back if you try to turn the volume up or down. I tried this in Google Music and Beyond Podcast and same issue. If I press volume up then playback pauses.
Had my HTC Sensation break today.Only had it 3 months so it's still under warranty. The volume rocker fell off. Called T-mobile. They said it was a known issue and would be covered but they said I had to call HTC. So I did. THEY said I had to mail back the BACK of the phone because it was an ACCESSORY! This was not a separate purchase. It was the back that came with the phone! The regular back cover. And after mailing the back, back to HTC they would mail me a replacement. Now if this is a known issue, why isn't T-mobile dealing with it as a customer service? I shouldn't have to mail it back to HTC. It is already an inconvenience to have to drive to the T-mobile store. Or HTC should cover postage. When Dell has to replce a part, they send you a prepaid return label. It is the last HTC phone I will buy and may be the last time I renew with T-mobile.
I need this rubbish disabled as i constantly change volume when on SMS screen. I can see how this would be useful for old people that cant read small text or are constantly fiddling with the text size, but its useless.
This makes the volume rocker and frame look "rough", when I think that's just the camera and flash accentuating ribbed nature of the volume rocker Anyway, does anybody else's look like this around the volume rocker? I can actually push it back in just a tad on the top side of the rocker, but not on the bottom.
If this is the way it is, well, so be it. If it's not, and nobody else has this issue, I'll be exchanging it later. I've done nothing to this phone but hold it in my hand and set it on my bedside table. The VZW rep put it in their black hard-shell case, which is very tight and hard to get off, but other than that, this has been babied during the whopping 16 hours I've had it.
On my iphone 4, the volume buttons all of a sudden stopped turning up or down the volume. This is also bad because I cant do bitesms quick reply. Im sure that this is a software issue but does anyone know what the problem is or what cydia app/theme/etc would have caused this?
So i always lock my phone and i guess ive locked it too many times? cuz none of the buttons work except for the volume ones. Ive also tryed to update it and take out the battery for 5 mins and still nothing has happened. since i updated it the only thing that shows is the agreement thing and went the screen goes blank only the volume ones get the screen back. it does have water damage but that was a while ago
iphone 4 volume and mute buttons not working, checked all settings they are all fine and when headphones in it works??? When I take out headphones the volum buttons do not work, when phone rings or text receives only vibrates?
Today I was trying to turn up the volume for my ringer, however neither the or button will make the volume bar show up. These buttons work while adjusting the volume during a phone call. But do not work for music or the ringer.
my volume on my iPhone isnt working right. this is a 4S, and over 2yrs old. i've never had problems with buttons beforeÂ
now when i am trying to watch a YouTube video for example, or typing clicks- there is no sound coming out of the phone speaker. whenever i press the volume buttons up/down, the "ringer" square comes on but no volume bars are displayed. whenever i watch a YouTube or listen to a podcast i can not raise or lower the volume on the screen either. i do hear the phone ring, and hear alarms through the speaker. Â
i have tried a 'shut down' and then a 'reset' (pressing power/home button together to power down). but i could not lower or raise volume either. i can listen w/headphones, and AirPlay. i updated the iOS a while ago (2 months?) and this happened much after the update.
My silent switch won't work. I tried plugging/unplugging earphones. The volume control doesn't work either, the volume just won't change either. The only way to change the volume is through the earphone's volume control.
I have an issue on my Nexus 5 where the Google Now volume is low - barely audible through wireless earbuds (Plantronics BackBeat Go 2). I can be listening to something else (music or a podcast or a phone call) and the volume is fine. But when I issue a Google Now voice command (e.g. What time is it?) I can hardly hear the response. The Google Now response volume is OK without the earbuds attached.
Whenever the phone is in camera mode, the zoom buttons don't zoom in or out or do anything. But when it is in music player mode they turn the volume up and down perfectly fine. Any ideas how to fix it or is a trip to Nokia Care needed? Would upgrading the firmware do anything to solve the problem?
My volume buttons on the side recently quit working and it won't let me turn the ringer up and my keyboard doesn't click and my home screen doesn't click
The phone's volume buttons suddenly stopped working and today the phone is in a constant vibration mode even when not using. This started when a call came and ever since then the phone is constantly vibrating. Can feel the motor running at the back but not sure why it is running in such a hyper mode. Not sure what the problem is.
Wired headset with mic and buttons on Nexus 5 or other LG phones? Can I use these buttons to skip tracks forward and reverse? It seems they only act as volume control and play/resume on Nexus 5. I couldn't figure out it's Android, phone or headset problem.
